Chapter 238: Chapter 238: A Race Against Time

Long Ming immediately scanned Arndt’s entire body, instantly locking onto the bulging weak spot on its abdomen. He charged forward and plunged his blade in.

SLICE!

Dark red blood splattered everywhere.

Arndt let out a deathly wail, its body thrashing wildly.

SLICE!

Just then, Luoxue also rushed forward, driving her own sharp blade straight into it.

Finally, Arndt’s body convulsed one last time and then went still.

Fu Fuqing stared at the slain Arndt, their heart in turmoil.

Although they had heard from Jing Chuan and the others how Long Ming had slain Fakamo, seeing it with their own eyes was still a profound shock!

The Lord Level monster they had besieged for so long without success was killed in the blink of an eye.

"That was awesome!"

Jing Chuan exclaimed excitedly, giving Long Ming a thumbs-up.

Long Ming looked at the dead Arndt, then immediately disengaged his mecha armor. As he detached from the frame, he dropped to one knee.

"Long Ming, are you alright?"

Luoxue and the others immediately rushed over to help him up.

"I’m fine. I’ll be okay after a little rest."

Long Ming shook his head, his voice hoarse.

...

Meanwhile.

Qian Luobing was luring Gegaka deeper into the inner city.

Gegaka, its eyes red, leaped high into the air and came crashing down on Qian Luobing like a mountain.

"Watch out!"

Bakaen and the others cried out in alarm.

But with a glint in her eye, Qian Luobing nimbly leaped forward.

THUD!

Gegaka slammed heavily onto the street.

RUMBLE~

The entire ground shattered on impact.

After landing, Qian Luobing quickly broke into a run.

"RAWR!"

Gegaka gave chase once more.

Soon, Qian Luobing led Gegaka into a small plaza.

At that moment, soldiers emerged from all sides, hurling cryo grenades at Gegaka.

POP~

The cryo grenades struck Gegaka all over its body, instantly freezing it in the center of the plaza.

Qian Luobing seized the opportunity to sprint forward!

Then, Spider Tanks rolled out from every direction, their cannons aimed at the frozen Gegaka.

BANG! BANG!

The numerous Spider Tanks opened fire simultaneously as countless mortar shells rained down.

BOOM!

In an instant, a massive explosion engulfed Gegaka, and a terrifying shockwave swept outwards.

All the glass in the surrounding buildings shattered.

When the explosion subsided.

Gegaka’s flesh was torn to shreds, exposing its internal organs and bones.

But even so, it was not dead.

"RAWR!"

Gegaka twisted its head in agony, searching for a creature to devour.

Just then, Qian Luobing’s eyes sharpened, and she charged straight at Gegaka.

Gegaka angrily balled a hand into a fist and swung it at Qian Luobing.

Qian Luobing swayed to dodge the attack, then sprang from the ground with a push of her toes, plunging her blade into a red, fleshy tumor on Gegaka’s chest.

SLICE!

Dark red blood splattered out.

Gegaka let out a mournful cry and fell backward unwillingly, crashing heavily to the ground.

Bakaen and the others quickly ran over, asking with concern.

"Miss, are you alright?"

"I’m fine. Let’s go to the breach!"

Qian Luobing said calmly.

"Yes, ma’am!"

Bakaen immediately followed Qian Luobing toward the large breach.

Soon, they arrived at the massive breach, where bodies littered the ground.

Countless Blood Breath Beasts were pouring endlessly through the gap.

Vice Legion Commander Lu Cang was directing the soldiers, relentlessly bombarding the breach with mortars and ordering his troops to hold the line against the Blood Breath Beasts that broke through.

"What’s the situation?"

Qian Luobing asked, walking up to Lu Cang.

"Not good. This breach is too wide, and we’re barely holding on. It’s only a matter of time before we’re overrun. It’ll be difficult to last until morning."

Lu Cang explained, his expression grim.

"Doesn’t the Second Legion have a large supply of incendiary weapons?"

"You mean...?"

"If we can’t hold it, we won’t. Just burn this entire area to buy as much time as possible."

Qian Luobing stated her plan directly.

"That could work. I’ll have the men from the Second Legion bring the fuel over right away."

Lu Cang’s eyes lit up with understanding.

"Mm."

Qian Luobing nodded slightly.

A short while later, Commander Yu Lie arrived with a fleet of special transport vehicles. Each truck was fitted with a large fuel tank.

They parked the vehicles, pulled out sprayer hoses, and began spraying the breach from a distance.

A rain of fuel began to fall from the sky.

Qian Luobing waited patiently. Once everything was ready, she raised her hand and gave a sharp wave.

Adika took out a windproof lighter, lit it, and hurled it forward with all his might.

WHOOSH~

In an instant, a raging inferno erupted.

The charging Blood Breath Beasts were immediately engulfed by the blaze.

Although these Blood Breath Beasts had tenacious life force, they couldn’t withstand the prolonged burning. Soon, they began to fall, one after another.

Just then, Luoxue arrived in a hurry with Long Ming and the others.

When they saw the entire area of the great breach engulfed in a raging fire, everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief.

The breach Arndt had created was in the upper part of the city wall, and the damaged area wasn’t very large, so it was relatively easy to plug.

But this massive breach was the biggest problem. Fortunately, it was now dealt with, for the time being.

Qian Luobing looked at the approaching Luoxue and asked coolly.

"Is that Lord dealt with?"

"It is. But sister, can we really hold out until dawn?"

Luoxue looked out into the dark night, a little worried. ’If a few more Lords show up, we might not be able to hold on.’

"We have to hold on, whether we can or not. Project Dawn cannot afford a single mistake."

Qian Luobing said with absolute conviction.

"Understood."

Luoxue nodded heavily.

...

Meanwhile, behind the Three Great Economic Cities.

Huge, square-shaped boxes were unfolding like flower buds, revealing cylindrical cores within.

"Hurry! Calibrate it, now!"

A team leader shouted at his subordinates.

Numerous communications soldiers gathered around the cylinders, anxiously performing the final calibrations.

"Move it! Our brothers are fighting and dying on the front lines, waiting for us to get this equipment ready! Every second we save is who knows how many lives spared!"

"Sir!"

...

「4:35 AM the next day.」

On the high walls of Osmo City’s inner city.

Soldiers manned rows of machine guns, frantically spraying bullets at the attacking Blood Breath Beasts.

RAT-TAT-TAT~

The surging Blood Breath Beasts were blown apart one by one.

But more and more Blood Breath Beasts kept coming; it was an endless tide.

Just then, Blood Breath Spiders began climbing up the wall through a small breach. A sharp Tactile Blade pierced a machine gunner, and the creature immediately pounced on the soldier next to him.

"AHH!"

Agonized screams rang out continuously.

Following that, more and more Blood Breath Beasts swarmed up the wall.

Seeing this, Long Ming, Jing Chuan, and the others charged forward.

SCREECH~

A Blood Breath Spider opened its maw and lunged at Long Ming.

"Die!"

Long Ming swung the Dark Blade in his hand.

SLICE~

The Blood Breath Spider was cleaved in two.

At this point, the entire wall was crawling with monsters. After running out of ammunition, many soldiers charged into the fray for close-quarters combat. The sounds of desperate cries and monstrous roars filled the air.
