Lin Rui, through the projections provided by Heart of Light No. 9, observed the situation inside the pharmaceutical base.
It was visible that the base was in complete chaos; executives were either tightly covering their mouths and noses or had directly donned exoskeleton armor.
So of them were frantically preparing their defenses, others were checking the cause of the chaos like ants on a hot pot, while so were trying every ans to purify the air and suppress the toxins in their bodies.
At this mont, people inside the base kept fainting in droves, starting with the workers of poorer health, followed by the National Guard soldiers.
The private army fostered by Qi Tianquan was also very elite, with all personnel being Second Realm and Third Realm Armored Martial Cultivators with strong physical constitutions, lasting about 2 minutes on average.
However, against the mixed poison created by Lin Rui, once it entered the body for more than a minute, it would penetrate deep into the lungs and marrow, making it very difficult to expel and neutralize.
This was the first type of mixed poison he had created that combined ether elents.
Both dicine No. 1 and dicine No. 2 were non-toxic, colorless, odorless, and unrecorded by any institution of the Earth Federation. But once mixed with the ether elent, they would transform into a very potent anesthetic.
Additionally, because of the incorporation of ether elents, this anesthetic could affect even Eighth Realm and Ninth Realm Martial Practitioners, with strong pervasiveness and the general air purification systems struggled to eliminate it.
That’s why Lin Rui was pleased to see those Eighth Realm masters continuing to stay inside the pharmaceutical base; the longer they stayed, the greater the impact they suffered.
The only thing was, once high-intensity combat began, amidst the high-frequency oscillations and collisions of the Astral Wind, his mixed poison would hardly take effect.
Currently, Lin Xi, Wang Yinyue, and Heart of Light No. 9 were breaking into the pharmaceutical base’s internal network with unstoppable montum.
No. 6 and No. 7 were also assisting them through the quantum network relays.
In addition, Lin Rui’s Rui Studio had recruited over 50 computer engineers of no weak abilities, responsible for the cybersecurity of Lin Rui’s industries.
Most of the network security personnel inside the base were now affected by the anesthetic, either fainted or groggy, essentially unable to resist. Therefore, the group of hackers led by Wang Yinyue were acting unabated, having initially disintegrated the base’s command core and were further implanting viruses into the war machinery located in the outer layers.
Gong Hengdao: BOSS, all troops have reached the designated combat positions.
Lin Guangming: Supre, the base’s outer defense system has been initially disintegrated.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): Begin the assault!
Following Lin Rui’s order, all the warriors from the Second and Third Groups, along with the nurous pieces of war machinery they carried, simultaneously initiated their assault from seven major transit tubes.
This pharmaceutical base covered 52 square kiloters, housing 4 Heavy Equipnt Divisions, 23,400 Alien Walkers, more than 500 Dragon Transformation Martial Practitioners, as well as a large amount of war machinery. The base’s internal defense facilities were extrely strong and comprehensive.
Nevertheless, when two Heavy Equipnt Groups led by Lin Rui, with 2,000 Alien Walkers and 90 Dragon Transformation Martial Practitioners, entered the base, they encountered no worthwhile resistance.
Only automated turrets and combat robots continued to resist; however, their central control cores had been compromised, and they were infected with a virus. Their firepower was disorganized and they couldn’t differentiate between friend and foe, often getting destroyed in monts after opening fire.
There were quite a few high-level practitioners above Sixth Realm Dragon Transformation inside the base; so were particularly loyal to Qi Tianquan, sporadically jumping out in a vain attempt to resist.
Yet under the influence of the anesthetic, their strength was less than one-tenth of their peak, making them easily neutralized and suppressed.
The soldiers from the base’s Heavy Equipnt Divisions were mostly unconscious. The soldiers under Lin Rui’s command injected them with a type of syringe, which could stop the operation of the Armant inside their bodies, effectively nullifying their Cultivation.
Lin Rui considered these National Guard mbers nurtured by the Heavenly Authority Group knowledgeable about the base and complicit in drug production and trafficking, thus deserving the fate of death.
However, considering that most of them were ex-soldiers with experiences of serving and defending the country and had families depending on them, Lin Rui didn’t strike them down but nullified their Cultivation, a rare act of rcy on his part.
Should they wish to recover their Armant Cultivation in the future, it would be possible, but they would need a recomndation from a governnt or Ninth Base City dignitary and purchase a specific dicine at a high price from Rui Fang Pharmaceuticals, effectively serving as another form of ransom.
Processing Alien Walkers and Armored Martial Cultivators above the Fifth and Sixth Realms was slightly more troubleso; they had to be injected with dicine and fitted with Limit Elent Locks and Soul-Restraining Circlets, as well as punctured with a certain number of Limiting Elent Needles.
Lin Rui had already prepared a prison at the dock base specifically to detain these mid to high-level Armored Martial Cultivators.
These individuals could provide him not only with a substantial ransom but also a huge bargaining chip, which he could use to negotiate with the governnt after the war.
As long as these people were willing to sign a Divine Contract, pledging not to oppose Lin Rui and Linghu Mingde in the future, and pay a redemption fee comnsurate with their worth, or agree to serve Lin Rui for free for a period of ti, Lin Rui wouldn’t mind sparing their lives.
He happened to have a large number of Dragon Skin charm papers, enough for these few hundred people to sign a contract witnessed by a Divine Spirit—of course, the cost of using Dragon Skin charm papers had to be covered by the Martial Cultivators themselves.
Lin Rui was actually helpless in this situation. If several thousand rank-level Armored Warriors and several hundred Dragon Transformation Martial Practitioners were to die in battle, the entire Earth Federation Governnt, including Li Xianglong, would go insane.
Previously, Lin Hao had just killed several reserve generals and reserve marshals of the Federation, and the Security Bureau headquarters was as if facing a formidable enemy.
Although the Martial Cultivators of the Heavenly Authority Group and those rcenaries did things that were beyond humane, they were still the potential military force of the Earth Federation.
At this mont, Lin Rui also donned his ‘Emperor Authority’ Exoskeleton Armor, took to the air, and stood on his Battle Dragon’s maintenance vehicle.
Next to him were two Red Spider 8PRO combat robots that were more than 20 ters high, six-legged, majestic in appearance, and covered in Runes and giant cannons that stood guard on his left and right.
However, Lin Rui had no chance to make a move himself; the two Red Spider 8PROs scanned all around, and a total of 12 9SS type Plasma Cannons and 8 9SS type Heavy Particle Beam Cannons bombarded everything around them, suppressing and flattening any threat to Lin Rui.
It wasn’t until Lin Rui’s Battle Dragon maintenance vehicle entered deep into the base and the pharmaceutical factory that a fierce roar suddenly burst out from a building nearby: “Lin Rui! Die for !”
Following the roar, a gigantic 27-ter Battle Dragon burst out from the building and pounced in Lin Rui’s direction.
It was an Eight Realms Emperor Rank ‘Titanium Emperor Blade Dragon’! Human and dragon as one, it released a grand, domineering Sword Light slashing at Lin Rui from a distance of 100 ters.
The two Red Spider 8PROs instantly backed off, and two Phase Transfer Shields conjured a powerful ‘Phase Transfer Energy Shield’, firmly protecting Lin Rui.
At the sa ti, they emitted 20 red beams of light from their bodies, focusing their fire on that Battle Dragon.
Wang Tianwu glanced in that direction and then scoffed disdainfully: “Idiot!”
He knew that several individuals of the Eight Realms and a group of Seventh Realm Martial Cultivators, along with dozens of Dragon Transformation Level elites, had been hiding in the most core area of the base, trying to wait out the situation.
Although their strength was greatly diminished by the influence of the anesthetic from the BOSS, they remained clear-headed and retained a certain level of combat power.
Considering their strength had severely declined and their Escape Skills were restricted, they knew they couldn’t escape, so they could only hide in the pharmaceutical base’s core defensive facilities and wait for a change in circumstances.
This Martial Cultivator nad Ichabod Bimonte, who possessed the ‘Titanium Emperor Blade Dragon’, must have been forced out of hiding, thus taking this risky action.
However, he was foolish; with hardly any strength left, couldn’t he have stayed put and surrendered willingly?
As long as they did not resist, the BOSS had no intention of taking their lives.
Their heavy armor combat vehicles had even broadcast the ssage ‘surrender will not be killed’ for several minutes using high-power amplifiers.
While Wang Tianwu was thinking this, he made a hand gesture.
He used an Illusion Technique on the mind and spirit of Ichabod Bimonte, disorienting the man’s spiritual sense.
Although Ichabod Bimonte was on guard, his spirit still blurred for an instant.
And in that instant, Ichabod Bimonte, along with his Battle Dragon, were stricken by nurous holes from the 9SS type Plasma Cannons and Particle Beam Cannons, as well as bullets and shells fired from many powerful snipers nearby.
Lin Rui’s hand rested on his sword, his eyes vigilant.
But ultimately, Ichabod Bimonte never reached him, as the continued bombardnt and illumination from the two Red Spider 8PROs blasted him into dust.
Those hiding in the depths of the base from the Eight Realms had also shown no intention of coming out to rescue.
As Lin Rui humd a song with an easy-going expression and continued to advance with the escort of even more warriors, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked back.
From a distance in the direction of C34244 pipe, two streaks of light, one black and one red, were racing towards his direction.
The black figure flying in the lead was none other than ‘Sky-covering God Fist’ Dou Tian.
This person was gazing at him from afar, the fury and killing intent in his eyes seemingly able to transform into swords and pierce through Lin Rui’s body!
