Chapter Ninety-Seven: Retreat and Return

"These bugs, the IQ is obviously very high"

Dong Xuan, who was out of danger at this time, happened to see this scene in his eyes, and suddenly found that the truth seemed to be a little different from his own prediction just now.

"If it were an ordinary beast, it would naturally collapse out of fear after facing such devastating casualties, but obviously with the intelligence of these mutant beasts, this would not happen at all!"

He knew exactly what that meant.

"There will be a time when the power grid will run out of energy, and if these remaining guys attack again, it will undoubtedly still be very dangerous if there is no other back-up gathering place."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but begin to analyze the threat of the remaining mutant beasts on the opposite side.

First of all, the threat of those giant clawed beasts is undoubtedly the weakest, and after losing their numerical superiority, they can easily suppress even the civilians who are re-armed in the gathering place.

Also because of the small number, in the face of the fact that there are at least 10,000 young men left in the gathering place that can be armed, there is no possibility of breaking through the city wall with less than a hundred swift beasts.

On the contrary, those insects that had been injured still had a strong lethality in Dong Xuan's eyes.

Although there were millions of insect swarms left in the end, in terms of combat power, they were obviously stronger than even twice the number of terrestrial mutant beasts!

The reason is simple, these residual bugs not only have extremely exaggerated defense, but most importantly, they can fly!

Now that the auto-defense robots on all the walls have been destroyed, these guys who can completely ignore the barriers of the city walls are undoubtedly a great trouble!

"If it weren't for the use of this method of killing 1,000 enemies and self-inflicting 800 losses, but these residual bugs would actually be a big trouble for the gathering place."

However, perhaps it was the tragic casualties that suppressed these mutant beasts, or some other reason, in short, these remnant mutant beasts that were eyeing each other finally retreated.

They retreated into the dense forest in an orderly and unusually quiet manner, and finally disappeared from everyone's sight completely

"It's over"

Watching the raging wall of thunder and lightning gradually disperse, Dong Xuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a few lucky guys beside him, and then collapsed to the ground, and then couldn't help crying.

Everything in front of me is so miserable, comrades-in-arms, teammates, and even brothers and sons

It can be said that the most essential part of the combat effectiveness of the entire gathering place has been buried here!

"What an inexplicable disaster"

Listening to the more and more painful wails in his ears, as if they would be constantly contagious, Dong Xuan couldn't help but sigh silently.

This tragic battle was so abrupt that he still hadn't fully reacted to what was going on, but he had a strong premonition that there was definitely some terrifying big secret involved!

"Unfortunately, there is still too little intelligence"

He shook his head with a headache.

A few days was not enough time for him to get to know all the aspects of Hans Christian Andersen's daily life, let alone any secrets, so at least for now, he had no interest in exploring secrets or anything like that.

It was the retreating mutant beasts that made him feel a dangerous aura that still lingered.

"These guys, it looks like they're not going to give up."

But looking at the dense forest, which had fallen into a dead silence, he added in his heart.

"It won't be these days, though"

The loss of the mutant beast herd was far more serious than that of the gathering place, and until they had accumulated enough strength again, the leaders of those mysterious remote control beast herds would obviously not easily try to expend their strength to send the gathering place to death.

"However, once the herd strikes again, this place will be really dangerous"

Dong Xuan didn't think that he had even used this kind of lose-lose trick, and the low-level gathering place where the energy accumulated by the energy tower for countless years had been completely exhausted, what powerful means could he have next time.

You know, Locke is essentially just a village in the most remote corner, how can he have the financial resources to get a lot of hole cards?

If that were the case, it wouldn't have been bullied into this state by the low-level mutant beast herd hovering at level 5!

However, this kind of thing is obviously not something that Dong Xuan can manage as an alien, and he has no intention of being the Holy Mother.

"Let's ensure our own safety first, once my identity is revealed, the fate of my alien race will definitely not be much better than those mutant beasts"

Shaking his head and throwing these messy thoughts aside, Dong Xuan got up and got out of the protective hole that could barely accommodate one person, which was usually set up to place the wounded.

Kick away the electromagnetic gun that has been completely scrapped at your feet. He turned and blended right into the crowd below.

Whether it was tragic or sad, these alien races had nothing to do with him after all, so after sighing slightly, he continued his plan, that is, to return to Earth.

"It's time to go back"

Dong Xuan was undoubtedly very tired at this time, both physically and mentally tense to a limit in this repeated situation.

And he also saw the various gains he had piled up in a heap, which was already an overachievement of his plan to explore the alien planet for the first time.

Next, it is to find a way to solve the problem of energy blocks and matter delivery, so that his actions on Andersen will undoubtedly be more powerful.

Coupled with his worries about the situation on the other side of the planet and the lack of food and water in reserve, it all combined to make him make this decision.

What's more, if it weren't for the sudden battle, he would have planned to come back before, just because this chaos had delayed him for a while.

Moreover, the chaos now is also a good opportunity for him to leave.

At this time, the originally dead and silent gathering place was a rare noise, and the empty streets were filled with wailing and weeping people, which gave the gathering place a different kind of life

But obviously, underneath this vitality is a kind of emptiness and numbness.

The vigilance of the crowd had obviously become worse at this time, and even everyone in the entire gathering place was the same, completely letting their guard down in the mood of grief and escape from death.

This is undoubtedly good news for Dong Xuan.

As a foreign race, it was really difficult for him to truly understand the reason for the stirring emotions of the crowd around him, so his expression was somewhat abrupt in the crowd.

In normal times, the entire monitoring and analysis network would quickly be able to analyze the anomaly from his performance, and even take further action to determine if there are high-level alien beasts mixed in.

But now, no one cares about his expression, so there are no surprises.

And the monitoring and energy detection equipment in the entire gathering place have completely failed due to the lack of energy, which saves him the biggest trouble.

Now he just needs to avoid the crowd and find a remote corner, and he doesn't need to go to the unique energy fluctuations that are almost inevitable when the Xenomorph Gate is opened at high power, just like he did when the gathering place is intact.

"According to Helen's calculations, it will take at least thirteen days for the energy tower to recover to the level of providing the basic energy consumption of the gathering place, which saves a lot of trouble."

After all, the gathering place can be regarded as a safe place after all, if it is replaced by leaving in the wilderness, Dong Xuan also needs to pray not to accidentally encounter some perverted-level mutant beasts or monsters that happen to be nearby.

Open the door to kill something, it's really not fun at all

"Goodbye, Anderstar, wait for my return in seven days!"

Taking one last look at this dilapidated but high-tech city, Dong Xuan did not hesitate to step into the door of Xenogene, which was already in front of him like a mirror, and disappeared in an instant, as if it had never appeared here
