Su Mo further accelerated, simultaneously controlling his mecha to evade the oncoming Hei Yuan beasts, eliminating those he couldn't avoid.

Soon, Su Mo successfully burst out of the passage, and the surrounding scenery suddenly opened up. They had rushed into a circular rest area.

All around were the corpses of players and damaged mechas.

Directly ahead was a destroyed laboratory door, with a battered second-generation Black Steel and seven Green Shield mechas engaged in a fierce battle with a horde of Hei Yuan beasts, including several Type II Hei Yuan beasts.

The area was littered with mountainous piles of monster corpses and mecha wreckage.

Although the Black Steel mecha was covered in wounds, it fought fiercely.

One after another, the charging monsters were pierced through.

Several Hei Yuan beasts launched sneak attacks from the side. The Black Steel mecha took a step back, precisely dodging the incoming claws, and swept its gun across them, sending them flying.

Inside the laboratory, an elderly man with white hair, wearing a white lab coat, was rapidly adjusting the equipment.

His cloudy eyes were fixed on the screen, completely oblivious to the battle outside.

Inside the laboratory, instruments were scattered everywhere, and many players in assistant uniforms lay in pools of blood.

It was clear that the laboratory had already fallen once.

Now, besides the old man, only three players holding rifles remained in the laboratory. They anxiously said to the old man,

"Mr. Zhang Wei, we can't hold on much longer. You should evacuate!"

"No, just a little bit more, and the launch parameters will be set. We sacrificed so many people, spent so much money and resources, all for this moment! I will not leave; you guys go."

Zhang Wei remained unmoved, his cloudy eyes fixed on the screen.

Although the hardware of the satellite rocket had not undergone a system check again according to the planned schedule, it had basically been repaired.

Now that the base was about to fall, he had to take a gamble!

So he needed to input all the setting procedures as soon as possible.

At this moment, with a loud crash, a Green Shield mecha was knocked in by a Type II Hei Yuan beast, heavily impacting the metal wall beside it.

The Green Shield mecha struggled to get up, but it was too late.

The Type II Hei Yuan beast pounced on it, trying to tear the Green Shield mecha apart.

Seeing this, the Black Steel mecha turned its head and roared,

"Qin Le!"

In desperation, he directly threw the spear in his hand.

Instantly, it pierced through the head of the Type II Hei Yuan beast.

"General Chen, be careful!"

A Green Shield pilot saw a Type II elite Hei Yuan beast seize the opportunity and pounce on the Black Steel mecha.

The Black Steel mecha was knocked down.

But in the next moment, Chen Shan in the cockpit fiercely pushed the power lever, controlling the mecha to grab the Hei Yuan beast's body and violently throw it away.

Just as he controlled the mecha to try to get up, another Type II elite Hei Yuan beast jumped over, knocking the Black Steel mecha down again.

Chen Shan struggled to resist, trying to get up, but the power was insufficient.

At this moment, the Hei Yuan beast on top of him opened its mouth and began to frantically accumulate energy.

"General!!"

The other team members, seeing this scene, cried out in horror. But they were all entangled by monsters and couldn't help at all.

*Crack!*

A black chain gun pierced through the chest of the Type II elite Hei Yuan beast.

A hint of confusion seemed to appear on its ferocious face; it didn't even know how it died.

At this moment, a black mecha covered in blood appeared at the laboratory door. The mecha sharply retracted the chain gun and charged towards another Type II elite Hei Yuan beast.

"This?"

Everyone present was stunned and speechless.

Chen Shan controlled the mecha to get up. When he saw the sudden appearance of the Black Steel Emissary, he was completely stunned.

Who is this? And why is this mecha so big? How come he had never seen it before?

Moreover, Chen Shan could feel that this guy was an expert, so he thanked him,

"Thank you very much, brother, for saving my life. May I ask what your name is?"

"General Chen, it's great that you're okay."

At this moment, Lin Yue's voice rang out from inside the Black Steel Emissary.

Hearing Lin Yue's words, Chen Shan and the others were overjoyed. They spoke one after another,

"Lin Yue, is that really you? When did you become so strong?"

"No, it's not me piloting it. It's a friend from the Dawn Guild. He saved me and came to support us."

Lin Yue explained.

"Thanks, brother."

After hearing this, Chen Shan immediately thanked him again.

"You're welcome; we should evacuate."

Su Mo looked at the dense crowd of monsters and reminded them in a deep voice.

Taking advantage of Su Mo's support, Chen Shan turned his head, looked at the busy Zhang Wei, and shouted with a changing expression,

"Mr. Zhang Wei, we should evacuate."

Zhang Wei was still rapidly inputting various commands, although he didn't turn his head. But he knew very well what was happening. He replied in a very calm and sincere tone,

"I can't leave. Although I know that my request is selfish, I beg you to buy me some more time."

"But, but, Mr. Zhang Wei, this base is about to be completely lost. Almost all of our people are dead or injured. If we don't leave now, you might not be able to leave."

Lin Yue was anxious.

"Lin Yue, don't say anymore. Since Mr. Zhang Wei said so, then we can only fight to the last moment. Brother, I implore you to fight alongside us! Consider it Chen Shan owing you a favor!"

Chen Shan rushed over and pulled back his spear.

Although Su Mo didn't know what the old man was doing, risking his life, he could more or less guess that it must be something very important.

"Okay!"

"That's the spirit!"

Chen Shan pierced a Hei Yuan beast with his spear and excitedly replied.

Su Mo controlled the mecha to retreat directly to the laboratory door, helping to guard it.

At this moment, more and more Hei Yuan beasts were attacking.

Su Mo took a deep breath. He controlled the Black Steel Emissary to explode with power, crushing and killing them one by one, but the number of attacking monsters only increased.

"Wasn't the base gate closed? Why are there still so many monsters?"

Su Mo was very puzzled. The number was wrong. If the base was captured, it could barely be explained.

"The base is closed, but there is a problem with this base."

Lin Yue didn't hide it from Su Mo.

"What problem?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"Alas, the bottom of this base is the Hei Yuan beast's breeding nest. There are countless monsters below. I don't know what happened, but these monsters suddenly woke up, catching us completely off guard."

Lin Yue explained to Su Mo.

"Oh, have you seen anyone from the Dawn Guild coming to support?"

Hearing this, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across Su Mo's face. He probably guessed the reason. Soon he adjusted his state, ignored those things, and asked.

"I really don't know about this, but I can ask for you."

So Lin Yue asked Chen Shan, "General Chen, have you seen any other members of the Dawn Guild?"

"You mean them? Before, four Type III elite Hei Yuan beasts and one Type III commander-level Hei Yuan beast appeared in the base. The people from the Dawn Guild and the leader of the legion led those monsters away."

Chen Shan explained.

Hearing this, Su Mo couldn't help but gasp. Type III monsters were all freaks!

Those four elite-level ones could be estimated in terms of strength, no matter what. But that Type III commander-level Hei Yuan beast was a bit frightening.

Even on the forum, Su Mo hadn't seen any relevant information.

This was troublesome. It seemed that Qian Chengxue and the others were really in grave danger.
