Chapter 585 Request For Help
With a loud boom, a large hole was created in the fortress walls, and the gray elephant charged in with the intact steel gates.
Broken bricks were scattered everywhere, and a few stones flew toward Lu Yu and the others. Han Xuefei raised her hand slightly and threw away the bricks, about to hit them.
Looking at the oppressive giant creature in front of them, Xu Yuan and the others couldn’t sit still.
“Damn, this thing is sure big. It’s several times bigger than a tank!”
Xu Yuan exclaimed in surprise.
Wang Meng couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. He put his hands on the bench and was ready to jump up at any time.
“Brother, this beast looks like it’s the real deal. Let’s attack and finish it off first; the rest will be much easier.”
Wang Meng looked at Lu Yu, anticipating his next order.
Lu Yu raised his head and looked at the fortress walls, then said indifferently, “No hurry. Let’s wait first. We’ll fly above the fortress walls after all the ferocious beasts rush in.”
Lu Yu’s answer made everyone nervous.
If they didn’t move soon, everyone in the stronghold would die!
“This is a battle of equal strength. If no powerhouses interfere, these soldiers will be slaughtered sooner or later!” Xu Yuan declared with a heavy expression.
“Han Xuefei, take me to Zhao Yan!”
Han Xuefei nodded to Lu Yu’s orders. “No problem.”
The six of them were still sitting on their bench, but it started floating in the air and moving toward the fortress walls.
Zhao Yan looked at the gaping hole in the fortress walls. He instantly panicked. Looking at the slaughter of his soldiers everywhere in the stronghold, Zhao Yan’s legs went limp. His carelessness had cost him an unknown number of lives!
At that moment, he wanted to slap himself, but Lin Shu was standing next to him, so he couldn’t bring himself to do it…
Zhao Yan’s insides churned when he looked at the armored elephant with its colossal body. How could he defeat such a powerful enemy?
How were they going to win?
“It seems this is the beast king… right?”
Zhao Yan muttered to himself.
Lin Shu turned to look at him and saw his forehead covered in sweat. His lips trembled, and he seemed to have fallen into endless despair.
“It must be that this is the beast king. As long as it dies, the rest of the beasts will lose their leader and flee.”
Zhao Yan stared at the black-gray elephant. “In other words, as long as we kill this thing, we’ll win?”
“That should be the case. We’ll be the winners if we can defeat this beast king!”
Zhao Yan turned around quickly and grabbed Lin Shu’s shoulders with both hands, jolting her with the pain.
“Hurry up! Tell me, how long until the fighter returns?”
“I… I don’t know…”
Lin Shu was a little scared as she looked at the maddening Zhao Yan.
“Hurry up and contact him!”
Lin Shu picked up the walkie-talkie and asked, “Hey, can you hear me? When will he return?”
“He will be here soon. We only need to wait another half hour!” The person replied hurriedly.
“We… we can hold on for half an hour, right?”
In the communication room, a man sat in front of his desk, his body trembling uncontrollably.
The noises of the battle outside rose and fell, and the violent tremors caused by the giants’ stomping would beat along with his heart.
At that moment, he didn’t dare leave the communication room or face reality outside.
Lin Shu was clinging to her walkie-talkie on the fortress walls, unable to return to her senses.
“Half an hour? Are you kidding me? How could we possibly hold on?”
Zhao Yan shouted in high spirits, “Half an hour, we can make it! Believe in our strength!”
After his yells died down, he saw the beast tide break through the gap and swarm into the stronghold.
The huge beasts were jarring as they stomped in. The rhinos were like armored vehicles that drove in as they rampaged around the stronghold.
Thousands of soldiers rushed up to try to stop the beast tide, but it proved nearly impossible.
Looking at the scene below, Zhao Yan’s high spirits instantly disappeared. He knelt on the ground, his eyes turning lifeless.
Lin Shu quickly walked over. “Captain, what’s wrong?”
“Half an hour? Are you kidding me? We can’t make it!”
“As long as he can come back, he will be able to exterminate all the fierce beasts here. As long as he returns, everything will be all good…” Lin Shu muttered sadly. She knew that the stronghold wouldn’t be able to last for more than half an hour, and a bloodbath was inevitable.
“By the time he comes, we’ll only be guarding an empty fortress. It’s over; I might as well die here.”
Zhao Yan lay on the ground, not moving at all. He looked at the sky as if the battle below had nothing to do with him.
Standing next to him, Lin Shu pursed her lips and felt helpless. As the leader of the entire team, his behavior was unbecoming. So many soldiers were fighting to protect the stronghold, but he was lying flat here…
At that moment, Zhao Yan, lying on the fortress walls, suddenly sat up and shocked Lin Shu.
“What’s wrong with you? Have you reignited your fighting spirit?”
Zhao Yan stretched out his finger and pointed. “Look, they’re coming!”
Lin Shu looked in the direction he was pointing and was surprised to see two benches floating in the air, flying toward them. Six people sat on the benches, and they were Lu Yu and the others.
“Why are they here?”
Zhao Yan immediately revealed an excited smile. “That’s great! We’ll have a chance as long as Lu Yu can hold them off for half an hour!”
“The six of them should be of help. Lu Yu is the most talented genius in the Freedom Federation. He’ll definitely be able to stall for 30 minutes!”
A glimmer of hope appeared in Lin Shu’s eyes. She looked at Lu Yu, who was in the air, and her tensed heart relaxed slightly.
Under Han Xuefei’s control, the bench landed steadily on the fortress walls.
When Zhao Yan saw this, he almost rolled and crawled toward Lu Yu and the others.
“Fast! The fortress gates have been broken through; hurry up and destroy the beasts! As long as you can hold on for half an hour until the fighter arrives, we can easily end the battle and this disaster!”
Zhao Yan said to Lu Yu in a flustered tone, “The six of you should be able to do this, right?”
His tone was somewhat uncertain. He was worried that Lu Yu and the rest couldn’t stall for time.
Lu Yu looked at him and revealed a faint smile. “Didn’t you ask us to rest? “If you can handle the beast tide, why are you still looking for me?”
“But, you guys flew up to find me. Isn’t it because…”
“No, we’re just moving to another place to continue resting.”
