The Glutton Ghost let out a wail, its whole body weakening, and a hint of fear appeared in its ferocious eyes.

It struggled again, trying to escape around the corner.

But how could Su Mo give it that chance? He desperately gathered all his strength and hurled the particle light blade from his left hand.

Clang!

The particle light blade struck the Glutton Ghost's right leg, and it screamed in pain, its speed immediately dropping.

Then, Su Mo controlled the Dark Knight to crouch slightly, grasped the remaining particle light blade with both hands, and with a sudden stomp, transformed into a streak of black light!

"Lightning Flash!"

Clang!

The particle light blade pierced straight through the Glutton Ghost's heart from behind.

"Roar!"

With a final scream, the Glutton Ghost crashed to the ground.

The entire battle only lasted a few minutes, but even those few minutes of intense combat left Su Mo feeling utterly drained. He took a deep breath and suppressed the negative energy contamination once more.

"It's actually dead."

Su Mo muttered to himself in disbelief, feeling like he was dreaming. He never expected to defeat a V-shaped commander-level alien so easily, even with the element of surprise.

The Pseudo-Creator Devourer didn't say anything, not wanting to discourage Su Mo, so it kept the truth to itself. The reason the monster was so easily defeated was that it had already been through intense combat and sustained very serious injuries. It seemed the laboratory's defenses weren't entirely useless.

Also, Su Mo's surprise attack and the concentrated fire from Sun Duo Xiang and the others had instantly dealt the creature a fatal blow, so it wasn't surprising that it was taken down.

"Boss, you're amazing! Even a V-shaped monster is no match for you!"

Sun Duo Xiang and the others said excitedly.

"Not bad."

Su Mo also breathed a sigh of relief, his tense nerves finally relaxing.

At this moment, Oula and the others approached, their faces filled with anxiety. They said to Su Mo, "You must be Mr. Su Mo, thank you so much! But we have to leave quickly."

Seeing the anxious and fearful expressions on Oula and the others' faces, Su Mo waved his hand reassuringly. "Don't worry, we've taken care of it. The lab should be safe for now. We can handle any remaining monsters."

"No, it's not just this one that's after us. There are two in total. The other one is a special series V-shaped lord-class, Meng Ge Lu, but they fought earlier. This Glutton Beast must have been no match and was badly injured by the other one."

Oula explained urgently.

"What? There's another V-shaped lord-class, and a special series one at that?"

Su Mo's heart sank, and he asked in shock.

"That's right, there's another one, and it should be catching up soon."

Oula replied with certainty.

Sun Duo Xiang stammered as he asked Su Mo, "Boss, a lord-class… can you handle it?"

"There's no way I can handle it."

Su Mo replied, feeling extremely uneasy.

The mech he was in was only a Generation IV biological mech, and the Pseudo-Creator Devourer's already limited energy had been further depleted in the previous battle.

As for the idea of having it devour the alien in front of him to replenish energy, Su Mo immediately rejected it.

Aside from exposing it in front of everyone, even if the Pseudo-Creator Devourer devoured it, it would easily go berserk. The negative energy on it hadn't dissipated at all, but had been constantly lingering.

"Then what do we do?"

Sun Duo Xiang was also a little panicked.

But Su Mo quickly regained his composure and made a decision. "What's the panic? We don't have to fight it head-on. We've already rescued the people. Sun Duo Xiang, have your men open the cockpits, take Oula and the others, and let's get out of here!"

"That's right, we can run if we can't beat it. We've already rescued the people! Quick! Quick! Get into the mechs."

Sun Duo Xiang and the others quickly opened the cockpits.

Oula and the thirty-four surviving researchers immediately climbed into the cockpits of the Night Watch mechs.

Oula got into Sun Duo Xiang's cockpit.

Seeing that everyone was in the mechs, Su Mo decisively gave the order.

"Withdraw!"

Su Mo controlled the Dark Knight mech to lead everyone in their escape upwards.

...

A moment later, Su Mo and the others escaped to the second level of the laboratory, rushing forward.

"Little Devourer, keep an eye on our rear. If that monster catches up, tell me immediately."

"I know."

The Pseudo-Creator Devourer replied in a low voice.

They could escape from the lab if they just held on a little longer, and the monster didn't seem to be catching up. It should be safe. But for some reason, Su Mo felt uneasy.

"Stop immediately!"

Suddenly, the Pseudo-Creator Devourer issued an urgent warning.

Su Mo's heart jumped, and he stopped!

Sun Duo Xiang and the others behind him almost crashed into Su Mo.

Su Mo was about to ask the Pseudo-Creator Devourer what was wrong, but when he looked ahead, his heart trembled.

A monster over a hundred meters tall, with an ant-like head, a spider-like body, six tentacle-legs, and a pair of metallic blades, stood in front of them like a roadblock. Its entire body was devoid of flesh, only a skeleton.

This monster was the V-shaped Hero-class Mutant Silicon-Based Lifeform, Meng Ge Lu.

"How is this possible? Wasn't this monster behind us? How did it get in front of us?"

Sun Duo Xiang said in disbelief over the comm channel.

At this moment, Oula quickly explained, "This is a special series V-shaped lord monster. It's a silicon-based lifeform that can penetrate metal. The base's metal walls are useless to it, so it can easily绕道 around to our front."

"Damn it, you should have said so sooner! You're really screwing us over."

Sun Duo Xiang's face turned green.

"I'm sorry, I was too nervous before and didn't have time to say anything."

Oula said apologetically.

Su Mo calmed down and said, "Stop talking. Those who aren't carrying rescued personnel, follow me!"

"Yes!"

The subordinates present responded.

Su Mo raised his head sharply, the negative energy contamination erupting again, engulfing the entire mech. This time, the Pseudo-Creator Devourer also injected a large amount of power into the Dark Knight.

In an instant, the Dark Knight let out a painful wail, and its entire body's biological tissue swelled up.

At this moment, Meng Ge Lu's six tentacle-legs bent slightly, exploding with terrifying speed as it charged forward, swinging its sharp blades.

Su Mo didn't hesitate, meeting the attack with the blades on his arms.

Clang!

The blades and particle light blades collided.

The enormous force transmitted through the particle light blades to the mech's arms, and the armor on the surface of the Dark Knight's arms instantly shattered, causing the entire arm to bend.

In that instant, Su Mo felt as if his hands were about to be bent backward.

His eyes red, he desperately held on.

At this moment, the Night Watch mechs rushed forward, swinging their super-alloy blades at Meng Ge Lu's metal skeleton.

"Die!"

Clang~~
