    The situation on the base was bleak. Not every worker could find a safe shelter. On the monitoring cameras, they could see some gruesome scenes. The scientists were pale. This had far exceeded their precautionary measures. Only Butcher was still calm, as expected of an Elite Academy X mentor. All the guards on the base who had no managed to enter mecha had been in clean by the worms.


    Communications with the outside were still failing. The enemy had done a thorough job there. Butcher could basically guess who was behind it, but he had not expected the enemy to have infiltrated so deeply. Their greed was so strong, and this was a cruel move indeed.


    “Wang Zheng, what are we going to do? The troops outside should know that something is wrong at the base, but the problem is if we can hold out until then... and if they wille.”


    Butcher said. His expression was solemn. At this time, the only one he could depend on was Wang Zheng. He trusted Wang Zheng, not just because he was a member of the Genesis Coffee Club. It was a unique syndicate, with its members all orded the highest trust, especially in terms of ability. Although Wang Zheng was still young, his life experience far surpassed many others.


    “Given the current situation, it’s only a matter of time before the worms find us. Given these worms’ battle power, the military... the best way is to seal this whole ce so the worms cannot escape.”


    The worms would definitely be unable to get out. The entire base had been constructed very securely, precisely against this very urrence. These abyss Zergs, if leaked, were very fatal, especially in their uncontroble state.


    “General Bredt wille to save us!” Siemen Kuang said. But looking out at the berserk worms, he had lost all confidence.


    Wang Zheng and the rest looked around. They did not dwell on this topic. Although they were young, all of them were thinking calmly, especially Lie Xin. Everything was judged in terms of risk and benefit. They would not care about losses. They must calcte carefully.


    And in the present situation, the most important thing was to survive.


    “General Bredt will definitelye, we just have to survive until then.” From the side Luo Er said firmly. This Gemini Star girl was unswayed.


    They did not have time to consider this. Lie Xin seemed sanguine... even happy. She pointed to the screen. “It’s only a matter of time before we are found. How long can those defenses outsidest?”


    She said as she looked at Wang Zheng. Even if Wang Zheng was exceptionally talented, what could he do?


    With his bare hands, he could not even fight one tentacle. Inexplicably, Lie Xin longed to see Wang Zheng’s frightened expression. All the while this guy had been irritating. Everyone had revealed a weakness eventually, showing their dark and weak side. Only him, forever unchanging. Even when they were on Tita Star facing an Earth rank assassin, Lie Xin longed to strip Wang Zheng of hisposure, and also his clothes.


    Wang Zheng had no time to dwell on this. There was only one way out of this mess. He must reach the mech. Only then could he have the means to fight back, and also to draw their attention. Otherwise, everyone in this room was dead.


    But outside was in chaos. If he left this room, the chances of making it back in was not high.


    “I have to go, Old Butcher. Where is the Conqueror? If I can just reach it, I can be of help.” Wang Zheng said.


    Butcher was taken aback. He shook his head. “No, it’s too far. Let’s not even talk about whether you can get there. Even if you do, perhaps it has been destroyed by the worms. Besides, against such numbers of worms, the runic mecha is no use as well.”


    Butcher would definitely not let Wang Zhenge to any harm under his watch. At present, this was the safest ce. There was the possibility that the worms would not find them, or that the military woulde to the rescue.


    “Wang Zheng, you can’t. Rx, General Bredt will definitelye to our rescue in full force. And with haste!” Luo Er reiterated.


    Everyone was looking at her. Luo Er hesitated. “My status is a little special, and General Bredt knows this. That’s why he will definitelye. We just have to wait here.”


    Butcher eyed Luo Er. Before bringing students here, he had of course checked their profiles. This student’s data indeed had a ssified section, which he was not authorized to ess. Possibly her parents or family was some important existence. She was also a Gemini Star person, and given her present demeanor, she was not joking.


    “Wang Zheng, Luo Er has spoken. We should just wait here.”


    Zhang Shan was very calm, although it might have been a pretense. But Zhang Shan had also been through a lot, and they had toughened his character.


    Wang Zheng shook his head. “Old Butcher, given my understanding of the worms, they will definitely find this ce. Even if the militaryes, think about their battle power. The ground capabilities are not suited for this terrain. And I’m sure you are very clear on the oue if normal mecha fighters enter this ce.”


    Wang Zheng’s words had thrown them back into despair. Theboratory was underground. At most they could send the Special Forces, but even so, what were their odds against abyss Zergs?


    For humans to have the advantage against the worms, it was definitely not in singlebat, but rather in intelligence, and utilizing their knowledge of the geography.


    “If I can just reach the mecha, I promise that these worms won’t be able to touch me.” Wang Zheng smiled. Only he couldugh at a time like this. Fighting was a problem, but to run and fight was no problem at all. Crucially, his presence could prevent the worms from detecting this ce. And he could link up with the outside troops once they arrived. Otherwise all the worms had to do was to block the entrance, and make their stand there.


    These were abyss Zergs, not those idiotic worms.


    They looked around at each other, not knowing what to say. Lie Xin smiled. “I’ming too.”


    “Count me in.” Zhang Shan piped up.


    Wang Zheng frowned. This was no time for fooling around. The chances of meeting worms on the way was very high.


    “Wang Zheng, don’t be a hero alone. The more the mightier. And in terms of physical power, I’m your equal.” Lie Xin said.


    “I have the ability to warp. When it’s time to run I’m the fastest. The worms will eat my dust.” Zhang Shan said. What kind of man would he be if he backed down now?


    “I’ming too!” Ao Ziwei said.


    Wang Zheng waved them off. He knew that their skills were not bad, but their reaction time and sense of danger were just not up to par.


    Siemen Kang had already opened up a map. “Your bravery ismendable, but look at this. You have to pass through 3 construction groups. One of them has just been swept by worms. Given your speed, once you are discovered by the worms you are done for. Better sit quietly and wait for rescue.”


    At this moment, the scene on the monitor had attracted their attention. The worm attacked the construction, but was countered. A group of fighters must have sessfully reached their mecha, and were using the terrain to fight the worms.


    But Wang Zheng immediately spotted a very special being amongst the worm heap... an abyss overmind Zerg!
