Chapter 726 Is This the Devourer's Lair?

Chapter 129 Preparing to Enter the Enemy's Lair

"Boss! We should prepare first! This is too hasty, I'm afraid..."

Duan Lei said upon hearing Li Chenzhou's words.

Because Li Chenzhou had already told Duan Lei all of his plans, Duan Lei knew that Li Chenzhou was about to enter the Swarm's lair, and exchange for a war fortress there to guard the entrance to the spatial channel!

As long as this step is successful, they will basically be in an invincible position, at least for a short period.

With Li Chenzhou's current accumulation of slaughter points, if he only needs to support the energy shield of a war fortress, even if the enemy's attack is fierce, he can last for at least a month.

Moreover, as long as Li Chenzhou successfully gains a foothold over there, the people here can continuously enter the Swarm's lair through the spatial channel, strengthen the defensive forces there, and gain a firm foothold as soon as possible.

However, Duan Lei didn't want Li Chenzhou to go over now, because their people here hadn't completed their training yet. Although many people knew how to operate the weapons on the war fortress, most of them were ordinary people before the apocalypse. Letting them join the war so quickly would make it difficult for them to adapt quickly.

"No! There's no time!"

Li Chenzhou shook his head, rejecting Duan Lei's persuasion. He took out a tube of evolution serum and injected it into his arm, saying:

"We must go over as soon as possible. After losing contact with the branch nest here, the Swarm will definitely know that something has happened here. They should be strengthening the defense on the entrance side now, so I must go over immediately and take advantage of the fact that their defenses are not completely in place to occupy the entrance to the spatial channel."

"..."

Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Duan Lei sighed and said nothing more, because he knew that once Li Chenzhou decided on something, no one could change his mind.

Since Duan Lei didn't speak, Li Chenzhou naturally stopped talking, because he was currently injecting himself with evolution serum, continuously increasing his level.

He was going to the Swarm's lair. There was no need to even think about it, as a human, entering there would definitely be fraught with danger. Therefore, Li Chenzhou would certainly not go over as a third-level ability user, that would be purely courting death!

Therefore, before going in, Li Chenzhou would definitely raise his level to the maximum, so that he would have the opportunity to communicate with the higher-ups.

Now Li Chenzhou was inside the war fortress, which was also an independent space. Therefore, increasing his level would not affect his world level. Besides, since he was going to enter the Swarm's plane, whether the world level would increase or not would basically have little effect.

Half an hour later, Li Chenzhou finally raised his level to level 9. Then, he looked at Duan Lei, patted him on the shoulder, and squeezed it hard, saying:

"I'm going over, wait for my news!"

"Boss! You must come back!"

Duan Lei stared at Li Chenzhou.

"Don't worry, I have the protagonist's halo. No matter how fierce the Swarm is, they can't kill me!"

Li Chenzhou replied with a smile, and then his body disappeared, arriving at the transfer hall where the spatial channel was located.

"Hybrids, I'm here! Are you... ready?"

Looking at the twisted spatial channel, Li Chenzhou murmured. Then, he stepped forward and entered the spatial channel...

The moment he came out, Li Chenzhou immediately released the Fog of War. Large swaths of thick fog rose up, completely enveloping him. At the same time, Li Chenzhou also widened his eyes and looked around, intending to observe first!

"Shua shua shua shua shua shua..."

What he saw was a white light, and the sound of beam cannons firing. Li Chenzhou gritted his teeth, without the slightest hesitation, and immediately activated his Fatal Raid, leaving the entrance to the spatial channel.

At the same time, he also saw the environment he was in. This was a rather desolate continent. The sky and the earth were gray. Around Li Chenzhou, there were seven or eight huge spherical objects – Swarm Nests.

In addition to the nests, there were also overwhelming numbers of fighters, buzzing and scurrying in the air with considerable agility. There were also some unknown large machines piled up at the entrance to the spatial channel!

Seeing this situation, Li Chenzhou couldn't help but swallow.

With so many nests and fighters, if he exchanged for a war fortress and occupied the entrance to the spatial channel, these nests and fighters would definitely attack him like crazy.

Based on this scale, Li Chenzhou estimated that although he had quite a few slaughter points, he could probably only last for half a month at most.

Although he was a little shocked, Li Chenzhou did not retreat. He gritted his teeth and waved his hand violently. A war fortress suddenly appeared above his head, and the moment it appeared, a silver-white shield completely covered the war fortress.

"Shua shua shua..."

Immediately afterwards, the war fortress began to frantically fire beams of energy at the surroundings. Because it was in their own lair, the surrounding nests and fighters did not raise their shields. Suddenly, balls of fire, accompanied by a series of explosions, filled the entire space.

The Swarm's reaction was also not slow. After discovering the war fortress, all the nests and fighters poured beams of energy at the war fortress.

"Boom boom boom boom~~!"

The energy shield vibrated continuously under the attack of the beams of energy, and the war fortress itself was completely enveloped in dazzling white light.

The Swarm did not stop firing because the war fortress was submerged in energy beams. Instead, they increased their firepower. New weapons were constantly being turned out from the eight nests, and they began a saturation attack on the war fortress.

The dense firing lasted for about two minutes. Then, a roar that was enough to drown out all the sounds of the battlefield rang out. Immediately afterwards, a mushroom cloud rose slowly, and countless metal fragments splattered from the mushroom cloud.

Seeing the war fortress disappear, the nests and fighters stopped firing. However, because of the previous frenzied firing, the space on this continent trembled. The white light only began to gradually dim after a minute...

The position where the war fortress had been was now empty. Below the war fortress was a huge pit. In the pit, some metal wreckage could still be seen.

Without a doubt, the war fortress that had appeared before only lasted for a little over two minutes under the Swarm's concentrated fire before being completely destroyed.

Seeing the war fortress disappear, the Swarm's eight nests paused for a moment and stopped firing. The fighters flying in the air were still flying around the nests, seemingly on guard.

"Shua!"

At this moment, another war fortress appeared. Moreover, the position where this war fortress appeared was above the spatial channel. Almost as soon as the war fortress appeared, the entire fortress sank downwards, actually covering the entrance to the spatial channel directly...
