Chapter 2037: Emptiness and Chance (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations
In the cosmic tunnel, at the node of the cosmic tunnel of Asteroid 525.
Huo Fengyan, who had led reinforcements from the Southern Star Field, was looking at the node of the cosmic tunnel with a cautious expression.
The defensive fortresses built by the Spiritual Race on the planets that had cosmic tunnel nodes were all for the outside world. They were mainly to defend against powerful enemies charging in from the cosmic tunnel.
However, at this moment, the situation was reversed. The defensive fortress at the cosmic tunnel node became their life-threatening tunnel.
Although Huo Fengyan was a female Nine Satellites Planetary realm cultivator, she knew this very well.
Behind Huo Fengyan were two Nine Satellites. One was Earth-element Nine Satellites, Kun Cai, and the other was Fire-element Nine Satellites, Chi Lin.
Three Nine Satellites. This was the strongest force in this wave of reinforcements. But they were still a little worried about directly attacking the defense fortress of the cosmic tunnel. It could be foreseen that if the enemy was waiting at the other end of the tunnel, the first person to rush out would definitely be focused on.
The only fortunate thing was that Commander Huo Tu had arranged for the local troops inside Asteroid 525 to work together to annihilate the enemy.
According to the agreement, they would launch a full-scale attack in three minutes.
This time, Huo Fengyan had brought a total of 108 people, five Eight Satellites, eight Seven Satellites, 12 Six Satellites, 20 Five Satellites, 60 Planetary realm experts from the Four Satellites and Three Satellites.
It was most of the elite forces that the Southern Star Field Military Region could urgently mobilize.
In terms of force, it was very powerful.
If not for the fact that they were attacking a place like the defense fortress at the cosmic tunnel node, Huo Fengyan would have confidence anywhere.
“Have you contacted the local troops of Asteroid 525 twice?” Huo Fengyan asked the courier.
“Captain, there’s no news yet. Someone has already returned to Planet Xuanhong, but it might take some time.”
Huo Fengyan frowned. The agreed time to attack was about to arrive. However, they could not communicate remotely in the cosmic tunnel. They could only return to Planet Xuanhong or other planets.
This opportunity was not waiting for anyone! If the local troops of Asteroid 525 attacked, they would not only be a sinner, but they would also miss the best opportunity. That would be a huge sin.
“Form a formation of three people and prepare to attack forcefully!” Huo Fengyan gave the order.
The team behind her quickly formed a combat team. They were all experienced experts and were very familiar with each other, so they were very fast.
In theory, the three Nine Satellites Planetary realm experts should be the first team to charge because they were the strongest. The narrow pa.s.sageway in the defense fortress at the node of the entire universe could only allow two people to pa.s.s side by side at most.
One person took the lead, and the other two maintained support behind them. It was best to advance in a sharp formation.
However, after thinking about it, Huo Fengyan gathered the other five Eight Satellites under her command and got two earth-element and ice-element supernatural beings to form a new battle team.
“In a while, your team will charge forward and defend with all your might!”
Huo Fengyan’s words made the expressions of the three Eight Satellites turn extremely ugly. Wasn’t this asking the three of them to take the fire? Everyone knew that the first to rush in would definitely be targeted. The possibility of him dying in battle was very high. The stronger his cultivation, the higher the possibility of him surviving.
The Nine Satellites should be the most suitable to charge forward, but they had retreated at this moment.
“Don’t worry, I’m not asking you to die! You only need to help us hold on for half a second before we can rush out and protect you. On the other hand, if the three of us were seriously injured by the enemy’s concentrated fire or even fell into a bitter battle, you would not be much better. Moreover, the three of you are good at defense. Also, set up a shield!”
Huo Fengyan directly brought over three huge war shields that were 200 kilograms heavy and 20 centimeters thick from the logistics team at the back and handed them to the three of them. “You guys lead the way. Your ability to resist damage is stronger than ours! Get ready to take action!”
The commander had already said so much, so the three Eight Satellites had no choice but to comply. If they did not, they would be disobeying orders. The consequences would be too serious.
All kinds of lights kept rising. Three-person combat teams gathered tightly and rushed into the node of the cosmic tunnel as a whole.
The Eight Satellites team and the Nine Satellites team led by Huo Fengyan were only 0.1 seconds away from each other before they entered the defensive fortress tunnel at the node of the cosmic tunnel.
However, there was no concentrated fire as they had imagined. Of course, this was not unexpected. The most dangerous place should be the end of the defense fortress tunnel.
“Let’s go! When you are 100 meters away from the exit of the tunnel, start charging with all your might! Don’t worry, the three of us will do our best to protect you,” Huo Fengyan ordered.
Three seconds later, the Eight Satellites team began to charge. Inside the defense fortress, the Blue Star Expeditionary Force was already on standby. It had to be said that the cosmic tunnel node’s defense fortress was an extremely beneficial combat terrain for the defense.
Xu Tui and the others were standing on a high wall that looked like a barbican. Under the high wall was a tunnel between the barbican s.p.a.ce and the defense fortress of the cosmic tunnel.
Xu Tui had already released his mind power. He understood their situation the moment Huo Fengyan entered. It was actually the Eight Satellites Planetary realm taking the lead, not the Nine Satellites Planetary realm.
