Chapter 350: How many hostages can the Jackal Squad's jeep hold?
boom!
With the full launch of the radar, the gate of the core base of the Leia Revolutionary Army was forcibly blown open.
After all, the place where they had fought before was very close to the core base, and even many reinforcements came from the base.
However, with the support of Cheng Tian and his team, the support force, mainly composed of highly mobile reinforced Gates, was quickly driven back to the base.
This base has comprehensive signal shielding. Neither the Principality of Leia nor the Earth Federation knows of its existence. However, as the former leader, Azrael has been here, but because of his betrayal, his entry and exit rights have been blocked.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't have permission, as long as you have a cannon.
As the gate was breached, the scene inside was officially presented to everyone.
There are prisons on both sides of the inner wall of the base, which hold a large number of Leia people with lavender skin, including men, women, young and old, and it is obvious that they have been imprisoned for some time.
These Leians initially huddled together in fear because of the previous explosion, but when they discovered the mecha invasion, many of them began to bang on the railings and shout loudly. However, when they saw Azrael's iconic black mecha, the Warlock, appear in the smoke and dust, some Leians who had seen this mecha before suddenly fell into endless panic.
Azrael was silent for a moment before he spoke.
"…The people's livelihood in the Principality of Leia has been completely destroyed. The number of soldiers in the army is simply not enough to support the planet's defense. It can be said that they are completely helpless against the colonial invasion of the Earth Federation."
"So you started capturing civilians, deeply transforming them, and sending them out to be filler?"
Cheng Tian decisively defined this matter.
Deeper in the base, there is a complete assembly line factory for transforming soldiers.
Leia, whose national strength was originally inferior to that of the Earth, had been fighting for a full fifty years, and its national strength had been exhausted, especially in terms of population. The number of the new generation was seriously insufficient, and it was almost on the verge of a generational break, not to mention the replenishment of soldiers.
So at that time, Azrael simply started to capture people all over the planet and carry out deep transformation, directly transforming them into mechanical puppet soldiers without their own thoughts. It was precisely with this method that he gathered enough troops to capture the capital city of Gaul in one go and invade the earth.
"I don't intend to deny my previous actions. Although I was controlled, the source of my extreme emotions came from myself... But I can't die yet. I have to do it, whether it's to atone for my sins or to prevent the planet from being colonized."
Azriel, who was choked by Cheng Tian's bluntness, first showed a trace of sadness on his face, and then his determination reappeared.
As he said, he would not deny the series of evil deeds he had committed before, the kind that even his life could not be enough to pay for.
However, if he fell now, the future of the planet colonization of Leia that Cheng Tian had described to him would lose all obstacles and lead to an inevitable result.
Even now, Azrael himself knew very well that after the heavy bombing of New York, the Earth Federation had gained sufficient reasons to counterattack. Even if he tried his best, there would only be a few percent chance of preventing colonization... But if he didn't do it, that few percent chance would disappear!
"Stand back!"
Following Azriel's intimidation, the Leia people who were originally close to the railings were dodging backwards in panic. The group of people huddled together and looked very embarrassed and pitiful.
What terrified them even more was that the Warlock actually made an obviously aggressive kick!
The Warlock's right leg kicked out and deformed at high speed in mid-air, turning into a whip-like blade with heat energy on the edge.
After two kicks, the tough and sturdy metal guardrail was cut apart from top to bottom.
The same situation occurred in other cages, where Gates equipped with laser blades were also cutting the cell fences.
Going deep into the base and destroying the main brain is certainly an important main task, but the Leia people who are used as materials for making filler babies still need to be rescued.
There was a hole in his stomach when he was in the combined state, but when he was released, the hole disappeared. However, Gates LB Orange, whose durability had decreased a lot, also joined the ranks of liberating the Leia people.
At the same time, Cheng Tian and Irene also received prompts to trigger side quests.
[Side quest triggered - "Rescue the imprisoned Leia"]
[Side quests, team quests, rescue as many as possible, and ensure the survival of the rescued Leia people, until you help the "Azrael Resistance" complete the crusade against the "Mastermind" and bring the Leia people to a safe area.
For every Leia who survives, you and your teammates will receive an additional commission of 100 Tianxuan coins, and the additional commission will be divided equally at the final settlement.
In Cheng Tian's opinion, this should be closer to a pure reward level before the final battle, and its nature should be similar to the reward levels of smashing cars in Street Fighter and eating buns and chicken legs in Devouring the World 2.
After a rough glance, there are hundreds of Leia people that can be seen. It is not ruled out that there are still unlucky people going through the transformation process in the cells or even on the production lines that are in operation.
After exchanging a glance across the machine, the human priest and the half-elf Wind Walker immediately got into action, diligently beginning to dismantle the cells and rescue the hostages.
The people of Leia, who initially thought they were going to be killed, suddenly realized after the initial panic that the Azrael Resistance was here to rescue them.
But it was Azrael's group who captured them in the first place, and it was also this group who rescued them now. This made these unfortunate civilians fall into a state of justified distrust. They all looked very panicked and uneasy. Some young people even relied on the fact that they still had some strength in their bodies and actually ran outside under the watchful eyes of many mechas.
"My hundred dollars!"
Then, seeing this scene, Irene began to hold her head.
Different from Cheng Tian, who spends more and earns more, the rich lady Irene also lost a lot of savings because of the Alien vs. Iron Blood main mission, and had additional expenses due to blood purification. Now she is short of money, and even a hundred dollars is very precious to her.
But at this moment, the entire base suddenly shook violently without any warning.
Cheng Tian covered his eyes, and his optic nerve and the mental image crystal he left high in the air above the outside of the base for global surveillance sent back a picture.
The ground surrounding the entire base where everyone was currently located was shaking and cracking, and as a large amount of sand and soil peeled off, the entire core base gradually revealed its lower body that had been buried underground.
A huge spaceship that looked like a small fortress was slowly rising into the air with everyone in the base!
