Double disaster!
The Sky Shield has not yet been fully stabilized, the Angrum fleet is already at the gates of the city, and inside the earth, a cosmic parasite that feeds on planets is awakening!
"We must prioritize dealing with the monsters underground!"
Atomic Eve's face was pale, but her tone was firm.
"If it erupts first, the entire continental shelf could collapse! Even the orbital defenses would collapse instantly!"
"agree!"
The clone's voice trembled.
"The fleet still has time! This monster is about to come out!"
"fart!"
The black rhino roared.
"Without Sky Shield, once the orbital bombardment begins, monster or not, we're all doomed. We should concentrate all our strength and defend the orbit! Wait for Mark to come back!"
"Mark? How long can he hold off a fleet by himself? We don't even know if he's dead or alive!"
Rudy scratched his head in frustration, his bomb backpack spread out on the table, but he felt like a toy in this situation.
Just as the dispute broke out again and despair spread.
Buzz——!
The heavy alloy door of the command center seemed to be kneaded by an invisible giant hand, making a harsh metallic twisting sound. The bolt melted instantly and the door burst open.
The dazzling sunlight poured in from outside the door, outlining a tall, perfect figure like a classical sculpture.
He stood there without any movement, but the terrifying presence and pure oppression emanating from that body, like a falling star, instantly silenced the entire command center!
The air seemed to freeze!
Mark Grayson is back.
He took a step in, and the alloy ground beneath his feet sank and shattered silently. His golden-red pupils were like a burning furnace, slowly sweeping over the shocked crowd, his gaze lingering for a moment on the double scarlet countdown and the dark purple pulsating anomaly on the central star map.
"Commander!" The robot was the first to react.
"mark!"
"You're back!"
Everyone exclaimed, with joy of surviving the disaster and indescribable shock.
They could feel that Mark had become different.
It's not just stronger, but... an essential transformation, just like iron is forged into steel, no, it is forged into some higher existence.
"Report the situation."
Mark's voice was low, like rolling thunder, concise and to the point.
The robot reported the current crisis with the highest efficiency, including the final stage of repair of the Sky Shield, the arrival time of the Angrum Fleet's vanguard, and... the sudden activation and threat assessment of the underground space parasite.
"Cosmic parasite..."
Mark's golden-red pupils shrank slightly, and his super perception instantly penetrated the earth, like an invisible probe, piercing deep into that coordinate point.
He saw an indescribable behemoth made of dark purple energy and wriggling flesh and blood, greedily sucking the earth's hot core. Every pulse made the continental plates groan under the heavy burden!
Its energy level... is extremely terrifying!
"The vanguard of the Angrum Fleet has broken through the last line of defense! Entering Earth-Moon orbit! Targeting the weak point of the Sky Shield!"
A shrill alarm suddenly sounded!
On the light screen, the figures of several ferocious Angrum assault ships rapidly zoomed in, and their main guns began to charge, aiming directly at the key node of the Sky Shield where the robots were making the final reinforcement!
"It's too late!" The black rhino's eyes were bloodshot.
"Attack the fleet first! Otherwise, it's all over!"
"What should we do with that monster?!" Atomic Eve asked anxiously.
"It's about to break through the ground!"
Mark's eyes quickly switched between the fleet on the star map and the abnormal coordinates on the ground.
Time! What we lack most is time!
Angrum's artillery fire is imminent, and the monsters underground are about to awaken!
Divide troops?
Either side is enough to cause a global collapse!
"Commander! The final reinforcement of the Sky Shield will take at least 15 minutes! But the Angrum Vanguard's main gun...will fire in 90 seconds!"
The robot's cold electronic voice carried a hint of urgency.
90 seconds! Speed of life and death!
Mark's fists slowly clenched, and his knuckles made a crackling sound like steel rubbing against each other.
He suddenly raised his head, and the flame of determination burned in his golden-red pupils!
"Leave the fleet to me."
His voice was like the collision of steel, with absolute confidence.
"Rudy, Samson, Eve, the three of you, head to the abnormal coordinates underground immediately! Delay that monster at all costs. Don't let it come out now!"
"Copy them to assist them, create chaos, and distract the monsters!"
"Robot, you stay! Complete the Sky Shield with all your strength! Not a second can be lost!"
"Mark! You're going to take on the Vanguard Fleet alone?!"
Atomic Eve was in disbelief.
"Believe me."
Mark's eyes swept over them with an unquestionable power.
"Samson, use your strength to withstand its physical attacks! Rudy, use your art to blast it! Eve, your material reorganization is the key to restricting its movements!"
"Hold it! Once I've dealt with the trouble in the sky, I'll come back and deal with it immediately!"
He stopped explaining and stepped out of the command center!
His body instantly transformed into a streak of light that tore through the air, charging towards the low-Earth orbit, facing the Angrum vanguard ship that was about to fire a beam of destruction!
The speed was so fast that a long vacuum channel was created inside the base!
"action!"
Black Rhino Samson was the first to react. He roared, and flames spewed out of his heavy armor as he rushed towards the entrance of the underground passage!
"Damn it! Are you trying to kill yourself? I'll keep you company!"
Rudy grabbed the bomb backpack and followed with a strange cry!
Atomic Eve glanced at the direction where Mark disappeared, gritted her teeth, and the light of the matter around her reorganized and she rushed down!
The only sound echoing in the command center was the robot's cold electronic voice.
"The Sky Shield's final reinforcement... has entered the countdown. May logic... and strength be together."
Low Earth orbit.
The three Angrum assault ships were arranged in a triangular shape, with their main gun muzzles condensing with dazzling destructive energy, firmly locking onto the node on the Sky Shield below that had not yet completely closed and was flashing with unstable blue light!
"Target locked! Charged to 98%...99%...Fire!"
The captain gave the order with a grim smile.
Three scarlet energy beams, thick enough to melt through the continental shelf, were like the judgment spears of the god of death, tearing through the vacuum and slamming towards the fragile node!
At this critical moment!
A figure appeared in the path of the beam as if teleporting!
It's Mark!
He faced three devastating energy torrents, but there was no fear in his eyes, only absolute calmness and blazing golden light!
Buzz——!!!!
Two rays condensed to the extreme, as if made of liquid gold, burst out from his eyes, hitting the cores of the two scarlet energy beams on the left and right with incredible precision!
Zizz——Boom!!!
There was no explosion! Only terrifying annihilation and collision!
The golden and scarlet light collided violently and melted in the void!
Mark's thermal vision was like the sharpest cutting beam, forcibly splitting the two destructive beams in half and disintegrating them!
But the third main gun beam was already very close, hitting Mark directly!
Mark didn't dodge!
He took a deep breath, his chest swelled like a stellar furnace, and then he exhaled violently towards the beam of destructive light!
call--!!!!
It was not a flame, but a freezing breath containing the extreme cold of absolute zero!
The dark blue mist, like a cosmic cold wave, instantly collided with the destructive scarlet beam of light!
CRACK, CRACK——!!!
A strange scene happened!
The violent energy beam was frozen instantly!
The scarlet energy flow solidified into a huge, twisted, dark blue icicle that flashed a dangerous red light. The energy inside the icicle was extremely unstable, and it emitted a teeth-grinding cracking sound!
Mark's figure passed through the temporary safe zone formed by the frozen energy, and like a meteorite, crashed into the bridge of the pioneer ship that fired the main gun!
Boom——!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was a purely brutal collision. The bridge armor of the steel battleship collapsed inward like paper, and the huge hull was violently rolled and deflected by this terrifying force!
The internal alarm was shrill and flames were everywhere!
The captains of the other two vanguard ships stared at this nightmare-like scene in amazement.
A human, shooting rays from his eyes and cutting through their main guns?
Freezing the destructive beam with one breath?
He even knocked an assault ship away with his body?!
"That's not a Vitrum alien... What kind of monster is that?! Open fire! All weapons! Free fire! Kill him!"
The surviving captain roared in terror!
Countless secondary guns and missiles shot towards Mark like a rainstorm!
Mark was suspended in the cold space, looking at the signal on the Earth continent below, which represented that Black Rhino and others had entered the abnormal coordinate point.
Deep underground, the dark purple energy pulsated more violently, as if something... was about to break out of its cocoon!
He slowly turned around, facing the pouring rain of death, with flames of protection burning in his golden-red pupils.
The light of heat vision gathered in his eyes again, and the chill of frozen breath brewed in his chest.
