Lantern Sister is still very capable.

Chapter 154 Rear

Southeast Sea Garrison Coastal Front

A sudden downpour began, and large raindrops pelted Zero's face, freezing instantly upon contact with his skin. Zero felt a chill on his face, and his eyes turned cold as he watched the massive blue whale surface. Its scarlet eyes indicated that the whale had lost control of its body, its brain parasitized by the Alpha Worm.

Level 3...

Zero silently assessed the Blue Whale's ability level. This was definitely not the highest-level Alpha Bug host he had ever seen, but its size was absolutely the largest he had ever encountered.

The blue whale, its back covered in barnacles, sails the sea like a giant ship steeped in history. Just a few moments of surfacing and diving create huge waves that nearly destroy the ice barrier created by the zero-degree heat.

Zero had no choice but to grit his teeth and extract another ability to assist the low-level fire-type ability user in the attack.

His ice-type ability users can only kill the parasitic beasts completely. Even so, the Alpha Bug can escape from its dead host in a short time and turn to find nearby beasts or humans. This can easily backfire and increase the defensive pressure on the fire-type users, which is not as good as the fire-type users who directly attack the parasites.

So even though he's a level 4 ice-type, his main role on the front lines is to slow down the parasitic beasts' offensive pace, so as to prevent the base from falling instantly and give the fire-types enough time to deal with the parasitic beasts.

The faint silhouettes of strange beasts appearing amidst the churning waves in the distance weighed heavily on Zero Degrees' heart like dark clouds. This attack was more ferocious than any before, and he had a vague feeling that the defenses might crumble.

Zero, having made his final preparations, could only pray that Chu Deng would successfully find the Queen and complete the decapitation plan.

"Huff, huff—Zero! Sir! The medical room has been attacked!!!" Huang Jingcan shouted from afar, panting heavily.

Zero Degrees abruptly turned his head and immediately ordered, "Chen Mingsheng, take your team back to provide support immediately! Prioritize the safety of Cai Zhizhi and Cheng Feng! Cai Zhizhi is the most important!"

Chen Mingsheng was stunned for a second. Before he could figure out the meaning behind those words, Zero shouted, "Go!"

"Yes!"

On-site medical room

Shang Yan was tightly shielded beneath A Zhu, and the rubble struck A Zhu's back with a dull thud, like metal being struck.

"mom!"

Shang Yan watched helplessly as a rock fell from Shang Hong's head. Just as it was about to hit her, Wang Shuyu shouted "Ho!" and a beam of light shone on the rock. The shattered rock fragments landed on Shang Hong's slightly curly black hair. Dust in the air entered her nasal cavity, and Shang Hong couldn't help but cough.

"Zhizhi, run!" Cheng Feng's light-based ability knocked down the attacking beast in the air, but more seabirds continued to arrive, attacking them with wind blades.

Cai Zhizhi coughed, stumbled as Cheng Feng pulled her, and said firmly, "No, no..."

Before she could even swallow and say anything, an invisible wind blade sliced ​​off a strand of her hair that had floated up and cut her back.

Blood splattered on Cheng Feng's mouth. Cheng Feng's eyes hardened, and a white beam of light pierced through the seabird that had emitted the wind blade, knocking it down.

Cai Zhizhi took the opportunity to shake off her hand, ignoring the injury on her back, and quickly ran towards the examination room inside.

Fortunately, the path to the examination room was not completely blocked by rocks, and although Cai Zhizhi had difficulty running, she still managed to find a gap to squeeze through.

"Are you out of your mind?!" Cheng Feng spat out a mouthful of blood when he turned around and saw Cai Zhizhi's back. He cursed under his breath, then glanced at Chen Mingsheng who was rushing over. He left with the words "I'm leaving this to you" and ran after Cai Zhizhi.

Chen Mingsheng stared blankly as the two doctors whom Mr. Zero had specifically instructed to protect had vanished without a trace. His hair stood on end, and he asked his team members to help him hunt the seabirds while he chased after them.

Cai Zhizhi found a path through the piled-up stones and finally reached the examination room at the very back of the medical room, where she quickly began collecting materials.

As she casually touched the documents, they vanished without a trace. The vibrations outside and the falling lime made Cai Zhizhi even more anxious. She used both her hands and feet to touch the documents and computers in the examination room, and the items in the examination room disappeared one by one.

After Cheng Feng crawled in, he only saw Cai Zhizhi pressing her hand on the deep examination machine that was said to be the only one of its kind in the country. In the blink of an eye, the machine had disappeared.

Cheng Feng quickly grabbed Cai Zhizhi's wrist, "This time we can't let you get away. Is the stuff more important or your life!"

Cai Zhizhi ran after Cheng Feng, saying, "It's different. These things were earned with the lives of our people—"

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes started to sting.

Countless superhumans have died from parasitic beasts in the past six months. The data and testing equipment related to Alpha parasites are the result of their sacrifices.
