Ever since he had led the thirty members of the Aerospace Corps to the battlefield, he had vanished in a streak of light.
The fierce battle now erupting from deep within the Swarm had to be him, locked in combat with even more powerful members of the Zerg Race.
The two Battle Group Leaders exchanged a look and decided to provide support, shouting to the team members behind them:
"The wounded, carry out the heavily injured and the fallen! Everyone else, charge with us! We’ll slaughter these bugs!"
With that, they took the lead and charged into the Swarm.
The forty members who were still in fighting condition quickly followed.
As for the remaining twenty-some injured, the lightly wounded carried the bodies of their fallen comrades or supported the heavily injured as they quickly returned to the fleet.
At the rear of the fleet, twenty Tanks were responsible for support, including medical rescue vehicles. They were guarded by a Tier Two Ordinary Combat Team to prevent Samurai Hunter Zergs from sneak-attacking the fleet.
The heavily injured Genetic Warriors were placed on medical tables inside the Tanks. Besides staunching their bleeding, they were pumped full of large quantities of Organic Nutrient Liquid to accelerate their bodies’ natural healing.
Tier Two Awakeners already possessed extremely potent self-healing abilities, which were enhanced even further after their Genetic Fusion modifications. As long as they didn’t suffer a fatal wound like direct brain damage or decapitation, they could be saved—even if their heart was damaged and had stopped beating.
Thus, in this battle where they were so vastly outnumbered, only a few unlucky souls were struck in the neck and head by the Samurai Hunter Zergs, the immense impact instantly shattering their skulls and spines.
The final tally showed a total of three members killed in action.
As for the other dozen or so heavily injured members, as long as they were still breathing, they were promptly rescued from the battlefield by their comrades. After receiving treatment in the Tanks serving as medical bays, their lives were out of immediate danger.
The lightly injured members who had also retreated from the front lines returned to the battlefield after gulping down some Organic Nutrient Liquid.
Although they were slightly injured, their immense power remained largely intact. More importantly, by killing Samurai Hunter Zergs and plundering their Life Energy, they could evolve and Upgrade, allowing their Attributes to achieve new breakthroughs.
This was also why the members of the Genetic Combat Team threw themselves into battle so recklessly.
It brought the most direct rewards.
The more they killed, the stronger they became; and the stronger they became, the more they could kill.
For the Samurai Hunter Zergs, this was even more true.
Now, deep within the Swarm, the remaining forty members charged forward under the leadership of the Tier Two Gene Combat Team’s leaders.
But they soon discovered that the other Samurai Hunter Zergs lurking within the Swarm were now just dismembered corpses, scattered messily among the horde.
Although these Samurai Hunter Zergs were dead, their dismembered bodies were still warm. Judging by the aura emanating from the corpses, they had all been at least Tier Two Middle Stage or higher.
It seemed the Mother Empress had held back these more powerful Tier Two Middle Stage Samurai Hunter Zergs in the Swarm as reserves.
Unfortunately, before they even had a chance to act, they were all slaughtered by Commander Shen Jie.
No wonder no Tier Two Middle-Late Stage Samurai Hunter Zergs had come to provide support during the initial clash between the Genetic Warriors and the Samurai Hunter Zergs.
Otherwise, the two Battle Group Leaders at Tier Two Late Stage Perfection would never have been able to play such a decisive role, turning the tide for the Genetic Combat Team when they were at a slight disadvantage.
Just as the men were staring at the field of shattered Hunting Zerg corpses, unsure of what to do, the Black Spine Zergs holding their ground nearby suddenly scattered, rushing toward the left and right flanks.
Their retreat revealed Shen Jie up ahead, who was battling multiple Samurai Hunter Zergs, as well as a Tier Two Tiger Spine Zerg Swarm numbering four to five hundred strong.
Each of these Tiger Spine Zergs was twenty to thirty meters in size. Many of the Tier Two Late Stage ones were as large as small hills. They formed a dense, sprawling mass, crushing everything in their path as they advanced on the main battlefield.
Clearly, this was the Hai City Mother Empress’s final gambit; she was going all-in to decide the outcome of the battle.
Under her control, tens of thousands of Black Spine Zergs began rushing to the left and right, attempting to flank and encircle the entire human fleet.
At this moment, Chen Yanyan, commanding from the Dreadnought Battleship, faced a difficult choice.
Should she trust in the strength of the Genetic Combat Team and stay to face the Swarm’s encirclement, or should she first break through the pincer formed by the Black Spine Zergs and use the fleet’s mobility for hit-and-run attacks from the perimeter?
The former meant fighting side-by-side with the Genetic Combat Team, while the latter meant using the Genetic Combat Team as bait to draw the Zerg Race’s fire.
The situation on the battlefield changed in the blink of an eye, and a commander could not afford to hesitate for even a moment.
’We’re in this together. We have to stay!’
Chen Yanyan made her decision instantly. She ordered the Tanks to spread out to either side, forming a two-pronged arrowhead to intercept the encircling Black Spine Zerg Swarm.
At the same time, they relied on the intimidating presence of the Tier Two Battle Group members to suppress the Black Spine Zerg Swarm’s advance.
Their coordinated efforts temporarily eased the threat of encirclement.
At the very tip of this arrowhead formation, the Genetic Warriors had already clashed head-on with the charging Tier Two Tiger Spine Zergs, and a brutal melee instantly erupted.
Even the ten Cannons of the Dreadnought Battleship couldn’t completely halt the Tiger Spine Zergs’ charge. And once the Black Spine Zergs began their pincer movement, drawing the fleet’s fire, the Tiger Spine Zergs reached the battlefield unimpeded.
The Tier Two Gene Combat Team, which had intended to continue fighting the Samurai Hunter Zergs, now found themselves engaging the Tiger Spine Zergs instead.
Many of them picked up the blades from the fallen Samurai Hunter Zergs. These Long Sabers were forged from the material of Tiger Spine Zerg Giant Mandibles, making them incredibly durable. Wielded with the dozens of tons of force the Genetic Warriors could generate, the blades could easily block a Tiger Spine Zerg’s Giant Mandible attacks, allowing the soldiers to search for an opening to pierce their Armor.
