Chapter 470: Reversal
Kaz Kaz!
In the Command Room of the Red Alert Base, Su Chen enjoyed some Yan Yun Star delicacies while relishing the unfolding drama.
From start to finish, no one had expected that he had complete control over this entire spectacle. It wasn't just on the human side, but also on the Ghost Clan side. They had no idea that a third party was involved, and this third party was even broadcasting the events live.
"Upgrading the Spy satellite back then was indeed the right choice. Otherwise, with their capabilities, they would have probably discovered the existence of the Spy satellite long ago," Su Chen commented casually.
At this moment, his cup was empty, and Ju Ling promptly refilled it with a cup of tea that exuded a strong aroma.
On the screen, human powerhouses were engaged in a heated argument with the Ghost Clan powerhouses, mainly waiting for Marshal's reinforcements. Once Marshal arrived, these Ghost Clan members would soon become lifeless bodies.
Su Chen had three screens in front of him. One showed the standoff between humans and the Ghost Clan, the second displayed a group of human powerhouses rushing towards the scene, and the last one showed numerous Ghost Clan powerhouses.
In terms of the total number of powerhouses, the Ghost Clan outnumbered the humans, but they were slightly inferior in quality.
Among the humans, the number of powerhouses above the ninth rank exceeded that of the Ghost Clan, which gave the humans some breathing room.
A ninth-ranked powerhouse could deal with several peak eighth-ranked powerhouses and could even counter-kill, showcasing the terror of ninth-ranked powerhouses.
From the eighth rank to the ninth rank was a small leap, and from the ninth rank to the first rank of the Small Galaxy, it was a qualitative change.
At this rate, human powerhouses should reach the scene first, with the Ghost Clan powerhouses arriving a bit later.
Su Chen certainly didn't watch this thrilling drama alone; he called over a few of his subordinates to watch together.
"Commander, you promised a big show. Why aren't they fighting yet?" Yun Ru mumbled unintelligibly while eating grilled octopus.
Su Chen casually picked up a skewer and replied while eating, "Don't worry, the best blockbuster of the year will be here soon. Our people will make guest appearances too."
"Really? How come I didn't know?" Yun Ru was surprised. She hadn't seen Commander send anyone out.
Four Super Soldiers were present, three of whom were here. The only one who had gone out, Libra, seemed to have disappeared somewhere. If Commander couldn't contact her, Yun Ru would seriously suspect that Libra had fallen into a chasm.
Aside from the Super Soldiers, Commander's most trusted subordinates included two types: spies and those with names, such as Su Yi, Chen Yi, and even Dahua.
Although Yun Ru didn't handle much of the work, she was aware of their actions. Each of them had their own tasks, so it didn't make sense for any of them to go over there.
"Commander, just tell me."
Yun Ru unleashed her secret weapon: aegyo (cute charm).
Despite looking like she was barely seventeen or eighteen years old, Yun Ru's aegyo felt completely natural.
However, she seemed to have forgotten that Su Chen had two formidable bodyguards!
"Yun Ru, I just remembered that there might be something I need your help with," Ju Ling appeared behind Yun Ru at some point.
Yun Ru froze, a bead of sweat forming on her forehead. Ju Ling had actually used her abilities to erase her presence. Was that really necessary?
"Remember those research materials I gave you last time? Do you have any new findings? I'd like to check them now," Tanya also appeared behind her, her tone flat.
Yun Ru swallowed hard. Tanya had even used teleportation. What were they planning to do?
In Su Chen's bewildered eyes, Yun Ru was led away by the two women.
"What's going on with them?"
Not long after, the three of them returned, but Yun Ru looked as if she had been through a frostbite.
Su Chen instinctively refrained from asking too many questions. He felt that it might be better not to inquire too deeply into this matter.
Meanwhile, on the screen, it seemed that negotiations between the human powerhouses and the Ghost Clan had broken down, and an all-out battle had erupted.
This was a battle between the weakest eighth-ranked powerhouses, and it began with a bang, leveling the entire Small Mountain, sending intense energy fluctuations far and wide.
Ghost Clan had chosen this location because there were no inhabited areas within a few thousand kilometers, making it an ideal battleground.
Even if humans had detected the situation here and wanted to provide timely support, it was too late.
Ninth-ranked Ghost Clan members had yet to make a move. All the attacks were carried out by eighth-ranked Ghost Clan members. Despite this, the human powerhouses struggled. It was all because the Ghost Clan members had extraordinarily resilient bodies.
When their attacks landed on the Ghost Clan members, they could only inflict minor injuries, while if the Ghost Clan members struck back, the humans would suffer significant injuries. This comparison left the human powerhouses cursing inwardly.
"Marshal is almost here. Hold on, everyone!" a human powerhouse sent a telepathic message, but the Ghost Clan seized an opportunity, and a heavy punch sent him crashing from the sky into the ground, severely wounded.
"Quick, save him!"
"Everyone, be careful, try not to engage them head-on."
The human powerhouses became even more cautious. This battle was no joke; it was a matter of life and death for humanity.
Amid the crisis, the human powerhouses failed to notice that the Ghost Clan members didn't seem intent on exterminating them.
Their attacks were fierce, but they couldn't inflict fatal injuries, especially since the three ninth-ranked Ghost Clan members hadn't made a move yet. This gave the human powerhouses a brief respite.
"Let's calculate the time. The remaining humans should be arriving soon, right?" one of the ninth-ranked Ghost Clan members sent a telepathic message.
"Should we act surprised when they arrive? It seems like Ghost Master instructed us to do so."
"How do we act surprised? I have no idea."
The three ninth-ranked Ghost Clan members chatted with each other, not paying attention to the ongoing battle. Under the leadership of Ghost Master, they were confident they could eliminate the human powerhouses this time.
According to Ghost Master's instructions, if they could capture these human powerhouses alive and publicly execute them, it would be a devastating blow to humanity.
At that point, they might only need to pay a small price to control this planet!
As the human powerhouses were on the brink of collapse, dozens of figures suddenly appeared in the field. The leader shouted, "Stop!"
The thunderous voice sent shockwaves through the area, causing the eighth-ranked Ghost Clan members to let out painful cries. Even the ears of the three ninth-ranked Ghost Clan members had traces of blood.
The might of that single shout was truly terrifying!
"Marshal!" Seeing their backbone arrive, the human powerhouses rejoiced and hurried to stand behind the marshal.
In an instant, the situation in the field changed. What had been a Ghost Clan encirclement of humans now became a human encirclement of Ghost Clan members, completely reversing the situation! (To be continued)
