Chapter 417: War Against the Grans

Qin Feng might have been the first to act but the others quickly followed suit.

The short distance could be reached within a few tens of minutes, to begin with. The latecomers even began to fire from five kilometers away. Qin Feng, who was still at the site, was naturally exposed to the barrage.

“Run!” Qin Feng shouted. Bai Li held Qin Feng’s hand and instantly teleported a thousand meters away.

Boom!

A bomb exploded behind Qin Feng.

However, bombing the area was just a waste of energy now. The Grans had long deserted the camp!

Those bombs were no different from blind shots. They were just repeating Lei Ying’s mistake.

After all, not everyone was like Qin Feng.

They wanted Qin Feng’s credit without having Qin Feng’s dark ability and Bai Li’s spatial ability.

Hence, they had to reap what they sow.

At the time, Grans only had less than three thousand soldiers left. They fled in all directions so some were inevitably running toward Colony Three.

Roughly twenty Grans scrambled in a fluster as they could not tell where they were going in the dark. Then they saw the light coming off one of the muzzles.

“It’s them. They are the ones who attacked us!”

“We will kill them even if it costs us our lives!”

“Charge!”

The Grans growled! They fanned their wings at maximum speed.

The aptitude users were running on a rather empty plain without a lot of shrubs to cover them.

The Grans plunged straight toward them without much of a hindrance.

“Die!”

The Grans fired bright lasers from their guns and the shot reached the running group within seconds.

It was a miniature version of the floating city’s laser gun but it fired at a faster rate.

C-tiers might be able to dodge it but it was too fast for a D-tier. One of the gunners could not react in time and got hit on the shoulder. In the next moment, his shoulder was no longer there. All that was left was a layer of skin.

“Argh!!” The gunner yelled in pain.

The shouting further aggravated the Grans. They fired even more rapidly.

Pew pew pew!

Another three D-tier aptitude users were instantly put down.

“Kill them all!” The Grans showed no mercy.

In less than five minutes, the small group of twenty D-tier aptitude users was instantly killed. The troop leader, who was a C-tier, also did not manage to escape.

“Kill them! They are weak. Only the bombs are scary!”

The Grans contacted their comrades and converged toward Colony Three.

Qin Feng immediately appeared beside the twenty-man team and triggered his ability undetected.

Three minutes later, the twenty Grans were killed too.

But Qin Feng’s night vision could see that more than a few hundred Grans were approaching in their direction fast.

“Retreat at once if you don’t want to die!”

Qin Feng sent the warming through his communicator.

Unfortunately, the others on the field refused to listen or maybe it was already too late for them to run.

Most groups had been cornered by the Grans.

“Hahaha! Kill them!”

“Kill them all!”

“Chase them! I am going to rip them apart!”

The aptitude users who rushed out from the colony finally grasped the still overwhelming number of Grans left. They were deeply frightened and regretted their recklessness.

“Run!”

“Get back!”

They used everything they had—weapons, skills, abilities—to keep themselves alive.

But in the end, they were unable to outrun the Grans.

The Grans flew and dived like an eagle aiming at the running humans on the ground. A Gran landed precisely on top of its target and its claws soon penetrated the prey’s head.

“Ahhh!!!”

The aptitude user’s shriek then turned into silence as his head was being forcefully detached from his body.

The others dared not look back.

They had come unprepared and there was no way they could defeat a Gran. The Grans were all equivalent to a C-tier beast.

The Grans gathered once again. Even though their numbers had been halved, an army of around three thousand alien soldiers was still pretty daunting.

They tirelessly flapped their wings and killed whomever that crossed their paths onward to the human colony.

The terrified users who ran back to Colony Three led the Grans straight back to their base.

This place was only half an hour away from the Grans’ temporary camps on the other side of the hill.

“So this is the city of the lowly species?”

“Such a primitive civilization!”

“They are extremely weak! Kill them all!”

“Revenge!”

The Grans were born violent. The urge to kill was boiling inside their blood now.

They were extremely furious after understanding that they had been fooled earlier.

In fact, the human race was extremely weak. Only one or two elites among them were trying to scare them away using the guerrilla tactic.

After exposing the true strength of the Human Alliance, the Grans felt that they had been humiliated multiple times in the past few days.

Such anger was followed by the desire to destroy everything on sight.

The Grans charged forward angrily.

Actually, the Human Alliance had already lost about three hundred aptitude users to the Grans outside the city. This caused some parts of the city to be void of defense now.

Qin Feng and Bai Li teleported back into a quiet alley.

It was a concealed passage at about fifty meters long. This was the place where they would have a final battle with the Grans later.

***

Everyone’s breath became heavier.

Some watched toward the sky, while some looked down at their communicators.

On top of the certification hall, a man stepped out silently. It was Xu Qing. He stood there calmly and imposingly.

The Grans noticed Xu Qing and they dived toward him angrily. Any human was a pest in their eyes now and deserved the most brutal death.

Xu Qing jumped to the air and brought out his long sword.

The sword was at least two meters long and weighed heavily. He swung the sword and struck one of the Grans.

The Gran instantly split into half like Xu Qing was cutting tofu. The debilitated beast plunged straight to the ground.

Xu Qing moved in zig-zag and attacked frantically. Then, he made a half turn and slid his sword around 180 degrees. The inner force infused into the blade blasted off along with the blade motion.

In one shot, six Grans were cut into half at the waistline. They were no match to Xu Qing, who was a formidable B-tier user.

Wang Zhou and Guang Wei joined in on the battle as well.

Wang Zhou had chosen the tallest building inside Colony Three. He was tall and possessed two thick arms. Hanging on those muscular arms now were two half-a-meter long machine guns.

The guns had multiple muzzles that were shaped like a beehive. The guns were connected to a power tong on Wang Zhou’s back. He was a rare B-tier gunner.

Wang Zhou raised both of his arms. Soon, white-colored plasma bullets shot out toward the sky like fireworks. The Grans that he aimed at fell to the ground one after another.

On the other hand, a pair of ice blue gloves was seen on Guang Wei’s hand. Frosty wings appeared on his back as soon as he put on the gloves.

Guang Wei ascended to the sky and threw a punch with his right fist. A blast of ice exploded from his punch and spread out a few hundred meters.

Thirty Grans were instantly frozen by Guang Wei’s skill. He was seemingly unbeatable.
