Chapter 15 Rescue and Sacrifice

The second level of the Watcher base, near the exit to the first level.

Qianchengxue led Wang Qing as they felt their way here. The exit lift platform area was littered with damaged mechs.

She carefully observed the surroundings but didn't see any trace of the monster.

Wang Qing said to Qianchengxue, "That monster was here. It might have gone up already. What do we do? Go up or not?"

"We have to go up sooner or later. If we stay in the base, we'll be caught sooner or later."

Qianchengxue didn't hesitate and pulled Wang Qing forward.

The two of them flew up through the opening in the lift platform, escaping to the first level lift platform area.

The surrounding area was filled with fallen mechs.

It seemed Wang Qing was right; that monster had chased them all the way to the first level.

"Let's go."

Qianchengxue immediately pulled Wang Qing, and they randomly chose a corridor. She didn't choose the straight path to the exit, as they would easily run into the monster that way.

...

First level of the Watcher base, inside the intricate corridors.

Lin Yaotian piloted the Silver Light mech, running quickly inward, maintaining the highest state of alert.

He was very worried about Qianchengxue and the others.

To be honest, Lin Yaotian felt somewhat regretful. He had been careless, thinking there would be no danger after searching the base. He shouldn't have taken a chance.

Just then, he keenly sensed movement at the corner of the corridor ahead.

He narrowed his eyes, controlling the Silver Light mech to raise the long spear in its hand.

As a result, a Night Guard mech with the Lin family emblem engraved on its chest rushed out from the corner.

The Night Guard mech made a surprised sound when they met.

"Father, why are you here?"

"Muxi, where's Xiaoxue? And the others?"

Lin Yaotian's heart relaxed a little, and he asked sternly.

"This, that, I don't know. We ran into that terrifying monster that was rampaging and killing everything. Qianchengxue told us all to scatter and run. I..."

Lin Muxi stuttered a bit, speaking nervously.

Lin Yaotian's face immediately turned ugly.

"How do I usually teach you? At critical moments, you only care about saving your own life?"

"No, it's not like that, Father. Let me explain."

Lin Muxi said anxiously.

"Hmph."

Lin Yaotian couldn't bother scolding Lin Muxi, and he controlled the mech to run inward.

Lin Muxi gritted his teeth and controlled the Night Guard mech to follow.

"Father, wait for me."

"What are you doing following me? Hurry up and leave."

Although Lin Yaotian's tone was cold, he didn't want Lin Muxi to take any more risks with him.

Lin Muxi silently followed behind. He knew he had disappointed his father. When faced with danger, he instinctively chose to run first.

It was no wonder his father favored Lin Ming and Qianchengxue. They were far more outstanding than him.

Lin Yaotian saw that Lin Muxi wasn't saying anything, and out of consideration for his son's feelings, he didn't continue to tell him to leave.

Father and son controlled their mechs and ran inward.

...

At this time, in a nearby corridor, Hagok was moving stealthily.

From time to time, drops of viscous biological blood could be seen on the ground.

However, Hagok suddenly stopped as it walked, constantly sniffing the air.

As a result, it lost track of the Scarlet Dragon Flying Insect.

Hagok instantly became enraged, its ugly face writhing. It had been tricked.

At this moment, in another nearby corridor, Li Ze was controlling the Scarlet Dragon Flying Insect, covering the cut and hiding in a special isolation room.

He really had nowhere to hide and eventually played a trick.

He deliberately used the biological mech's blood to lure the monster elsewhere, then covered his wound and circled back to hide in this special isolation room.

His face was full of fear, and he kept praying in a low voice.

"Don't find me."

...

At this time, Qianchengxue was leading Wang Qing, running towards the exit.

"It sounds like there's movement ahead."

Wang Qing said, startled, reminding her.

"It's okay, that monster doesn't make such a big noise when it moves. It should be one of our own."

Qianchengxue replied with certainty. If that monster made such a big noise when it moved, they wouldn't have been chased all over the place.

"That's true."

Wang Qing felt slightly relieved.

At this moment, Qianchengxue and Wang Qing controlled their mechs to run to a crossroads.

"Qianchengxue!"

A cry of excitement rang out.

Qianchengxue looked over and saw Lin Yaotian and Lin Muxi not far ahead. She also shouted in surprise and delight.

"Father, Fourth Brother."

Then, Qianchengxue pulled Wang Qing and ran towards Lin Yaotian and the others.

Lin Yaotian looked at Qianchengxue and Wang Qing running over, and his tense face relaxed slightly.

Suddenly, Lin Yaotian keenly noticed a slight abnormality in the transparent air. Through the IV generation biological mech Silver Light, he keenly sensed a wisp of wind.

"Be careful!"

He suddenly issued a warning, while his nerves reacted extremely quickly as he reached out and pulled Lin Muxi back.

His movements were clean and decisive, without the slightest hesitation!

Before Lin Muxi could react, a sharp blade swept over!

*Ka!*

In the process of the Silver Light mech and Lin Muxi's Night Guard mech retreating, they were still grazed by the blade, and a gash was cut into the chest armor.

Hagok's terrifyingly huge body instantly appeared, and a suffocating aura instantly covered everyone present.

Lin Yaotian felt the shadow of death for the first time, but his eyes flashed with an unyielding and fearless gaze. In an instant, he controlled the Silver Light mech to explode with full power, and thrust the silver spear toward Hagok!

*Ka!*

Hagok's AT field barrier instantly unfolded.

The silver spear stabbed hard into it. The entire spear was somewhat bent. Lin Yaotian was exerting all his strength, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

Qianchengxue saw this scene, and her whole body felt as if she were in the dead of winter. She shouted anxiously, "Father, run! You can't win!"

But it was too late.

Hagok casually raised its blade and swept it toward Lin Yaotian like a flash of light!

At this moment, Lin Muxi, who was beside him, activated the Night Guard's full power and violently rammed Lin Yaotian's Silver Light mech away!

*Ka!*

In an instant, the entire Night Guard mech was split open from the cockpit position. Lin Muxi was also cut in half at the waist. The IV generation mechanical armor on his body didn't play any role at all; it was as fragile as paper!

"Muxi!"

Lin Yaotian's eyes turned red instantly when he saw his fourth son die in front of him.

"Fa, Father, hurry..."

Lin Muxi spat out blood, but a smile appeared on his face. At this moment, he could finally prove that although he couldn't compare to his older brothers, he was also his father's brave son.

At this time, Hagok saw that its prey was not dead, and then looked at Lin Yaotian with murderous intent. Biological mechs could provide it with more nutrients; in comparison, it didn't even look at Lin Muxi.

Lin Yaotian suppressed his anger to the extreme. He abruptly controlled the Silver Light mech to turn his body to the limit. The three pairs of silver mechanical jet wings on his back output all their power. The entire mech shot out towards the exit at an extremely fast speed. At the same time, Lin Yaotian shouted to Qianchengxue on the communication channel.

"Run!"
