Chapter 2157 Interception …. Outside the research institute, time passed by second by second. Fang Heng remained steady. The fusion Tyrant forms were equipped with super-heavy high-energy beam weapons, but they did not join the battlefield immediately. Instead, they lined up in the rear, ready to fight at any time. Good steel is used on the edge of the blade. After all, the beam weapon ammunition was limited. Fang Heng knew that the tree spirits would not be able to find the Niam alloy, so he saved his ammunition and prepared for the upcoming general attack of the Federation. Moreover… Fang Heng realized that waiting for the Federation’s war machines to join the battlefield through transition and then killing them would earn him more faction contribution points! It would be a waste not to profit! Fang Heng chased away a group of Tree Whisperers Alliance helpers who were in the way and also chased away the remaining tree spirits. He relied on the group of Lickers to slowly farm! After all, only unmanned war machines could be transported through space. The strength of these machines was not bad, but unfortunately, they could not do anything to the Lickers! As Fang Heng was scrolling, he suddenly raised his eyebrows. Less than half an hour had passed, and the number of transition light spots surrounding the research institute had increased. Soon, an elder of the tree spirit walked out of the research institute anxiously. He looked around and finally fixed his eyes on Fang Heng. The tree spirit elder rushed over and shouted, “Fang Heng! The transition interference device will be completely ineffective in five minutes. We are still looking for Niam alloy. We must stall for time!” Fang Heng made an OK gesture to the tree spirit elder from afar. At the same time, a game notification appeared on his retina. [Hint: The player’s current mission-clearing war machines has been completed. Entering settlement status.] [Hint: The player’s mission completion rate is 12098%.] [Hint: The player has obtained 12 tree spirit affinity points. The player has obtained 1,209,800 tree spirit camp contribution points.] [Hint: The player has triggered a side mission-cover the retreat of the tree spirits.] Mission title: Cover the retreat of the tree spirits. Mission difficulty: SS. Mission requirements: The tree spirits are still searching for traces of the Niam alloy in the research institute. Please assist the tree spirits in resisting the Federation’s war machines that have arrived through hyperdrive. This will buy more time for the tree spirits to ensure their safe evacuation. Failure penalty: Tree spirit affinity reduced. “Not bad, not bad. Another 12 Leaves of Life have entered my account…” Fang Heng glanced at the game notification and shifted his gaze to the sky again. The tree spirits who were responsible for guarding the periphery of the research institute also became nervous. They naturally wouldn’t place all their hopes on Fang Heng, and they all gripped their weapons tightly. In the night sky, the white light produced during the warp gradually dimmed and then disappeared for another two minutes. Suddenly… “Whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh!!!” The entire night sky was instantly lit up by the flashing light of the spatial transmission! It was like the twinkling stars in the sky! So many? Fang Heng could not help but be shocked when he saw the scene in front of him. “Stop them!!!” The elder of the tree spirit race, who was guarding the periphery of the research institute, frowned and immediately gave the order. The dense rain of green arrows shot towards the light spots! At the same time, the fusion Tyrant forms also raised the super-heavy beam weapons on their shoulders and fired! Boom! Boom, Boom!!! The light beams bombarded the hyperdrive light spots and exploded. Fang Heng’s expression turned solemn. The effect was not good. After the spiritual domain network was disrupted by the transmission, the strength of the barrier provided by the spatial transmission had been greatly increased! With their current attack strength, they could not keep up. Only a large amount of concentrated fire could directly destroy the transition light spots and interrupt the transition. The first wave of attacks from the tree spirits and Fang Heng’s fusion Tyrant forms only destroyed less than half of the spatial transition light spots. Not only that, but the teleportation speed of the outer transition light spots had also increased substantially! A large number of war machines entered the battlefield through warp teleportation and immediately attacked the Lickers surrounding the research institute! The Lickers and the tree people immediately charged forward to fight head-on! The worm’s physical strength was not very effective against such a fully armed mechanical creature. He could only rely on the Lickers to fight head-on! In an instant, the game notifications on Fang Heng’s retina quickly refreshed. [Hint: The player’s zombie clone (fusion Licker form) has dealt 3,337 damage to a large war machine (Spider Armor V-88)…] [Hint: The player’s zombie clone…] Fang Heng didn’t join the battle directly. He just observed from the side and turned to look at the tree spirits. “I need to exchange for an item. Yes, the Leaf of Life. I’ll exchange the remaining points for the Leaf of Life.” The tree spirits frowned, feeling a sharp pain in their heart. They had no choice but to listen to the Great Elder’s instructions. At the very least, they had to temporarily stabilize Fang Heng before this incident ended. So, the tree spirits had no choice but to grit their teeth and once again offer over a dozen Leaves of Life to Fang Heng. “Thank you.” Fang Heng put away the Leaves of Life. He didn’t know when the tree spirits would turn hostile, so he had to exchange for points quickly to avoid wasting them. As he thought about it, Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the battlefield once again. The Federation’s first batch to enter the battlefield was a large number of unmanned mechanical troops. Because a single light beam attack could not kill the Lickers, the situation was still under control. However, it was obvious that the Licker’s damage output could not keep up. The biggest damage output was the fusion Tyrant form that controlled the high-energy beam weapon at the back. But… The fusion Tyrant forms still had to deal with the transition light spot in the air. What was even more troublesome was… Soon, in less than five minutes, the ammunition for the super-heavy beam weapon was used up. Instantly, the number of war machines that arrived through spatial transmission increased rapidly. Fang Heng frowned. This was the power of the entire Federation. It was similar to what he had imagined. It was very difficult to resist. The Lickers were constantly blasted away by light beams, and after recovering from the effects of the undyig body, they joined the battle again. They barely managed to hold back the Federation’s machinery team and prevent them from approaching the research institute. The group of tree people summoned by the tree spirits was not so lucky. Under the dense firepower of the war machines, the number of tree people was greatly reduced. “Hmm? It’s here!” After fighting with the Federation for more than five minutes, Fang Heng had a thought. As the dense spatial transmission light spots flashed behind the battlefield, a team of fully armed Federation mechanically modified soldiers joined the battlefield! The members of the Federation team each held a long-range sniper rifle. Whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh!! As soon as they entered the battlefield, the Federation’s semi-mechanical modified squad immediately pulled the trigger, and concentrated needles shot toward the Lickers! Lines of game prompts appeared on Fang Heng’s retina. [Hint: The player’s zombie clone (fusion Licker form) has been affected by an unknown injection. The player’s zombie clone (fusion Licker form) has lost some of its buffs…]
