The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 446: Fire Phoenix Base, Annihilation!



Chapter 446: Fire Phoenix Base, Annihilation!

The Red Alert army has pushed forward to the extent that they are less than a kilometer away from Fire Phoenix Base. They are dangerously close.

"Whose base is this? Why are their forces so strong?" a Fire Phoenix Base soldier shouts.

"I heard it's a base called Red Alert. I've never heard of it before, but they are formidable. We might not be able to hold on much longer."

"What can Commander do? Are we just going to die like this?"

"Lower your voice! Show some respect to Commander; that could cost you your life. Wait, what's that?"

While these soldiers exchange hurried words, a sharp-eyed soldier suddenly notices a multitude of black spots appearing above the Red Alert forces. These black spots seem to materialize out of thin air, dropping like raindrops from the sky.

"Are those... Ghost Clan?"

"No, not Ghost Clan. Those are people on the verge of becoming Ghost Clan!"

Indeed, a group of Shadow Ghosts suddenly appears above the Red Alert Base, catching everyone off guard.

Ju Ling raises her head, realizing that the enemy base might possess some short-range teleportation device that brought these Shadow Ghosts here.

This is Fire Phoenix Base's secret weapon teleporting Shadow Ghosts above the Red Alert army to cause massive chaos. They hope the Shadow Ghosts can infect the enemy forces, increasing their numbers and causing the Red Alert army to self-destruct.

Little do they know, the soldiers of the Red Alert Base aren't ordinary humans; they can't be infected. If they knew this, they would be baffled.

A preliminary estimate places the number of Shadow Ghosts at least thirty thousand. In Yin Shenhai's eyes, this is certainly a force capable of wreaking havoc. Among them are Seventh Order Shadow Ghosts!

"Order them to attack opportunistically. Don't miss this chance," Yin Shenhai commands.

Despite their fears, the soldiers carry out the orders. Their movements slow slightly, still shaken by their encounter with the Red Alert forces.

In less than a minute, the smile on Yin Shenhai's face fades as the scenario he envisioned fails to unfold.

After the Shadow Ghosts drop into the Red Alert forces, it takes only a short time before all the Shadow Ghosts are slain, none left standing. On the other hand, the Red Alert army sustains only minor damage.

"Impossible! Even though they're not Ghost Clan, they're not far from being Ghost Clan. How could they be killed so easily?" Yin Shenhai nearly despairs.

One of his trusted subordinates panics, "Commander, Fire Phoenix Base is lost. We should escape while we can!"

Yin Shenhai's face darkens. He's worked hard to establish Fire Phoenix Base; how can he bear to abandon it? But upon reflection, he realizes that his own life is paramount.

Throughout this crisis, Yin Shenhai had never considered joining the battle. An eighth-order powerhouse, in this moment, he is cowering like a mouse.

Since he's choosing to flee, the quickest tool at hand is a Fighter Jet.

The two board the Fighter Jet and depart quietly. Little do they know, Ju Ling had locked onto them long ago.

Ju Ling retrieves a sniper rifle, takes aim, and in one smooth motion, fires a bullet that pierces through, hitting its target.

Danger!

Imminent danger!

At this instant, the eighth-order powerhouse's instincts warn Yin Shenhai that he's in mortal peril. Just as he starts to react, a bullet pierces through the back of his head, killing him instantly.

With Commander of Fire Phoenix Base dead and the remaining lower-ranked soldiers not a concern, Fire Phoenix Base vanishes without a trace.

Days later, when other bases attempt to contact Fire Phoenix Base, they realize they can't establish a connection. They send reconnaissance teams, only to be shocked by the devastation Fire Phoenix Base has been obliterated!

News of this spreads rapidly, shocking all factions. Fire Phoenix Base, ranked 49th, has been reduced to ruins within a day. Who has such power to achieve this?

The first assumption is that it's not Ghost Clan. Ghost Clan only focuses on humans, not the bases themselves. The culprits must be humans.

"Who could have done this? Don't they know that humans need to unite against Ghost Clan now? Instead, they're causing internal conflicts. How infuriating!" a high-ranking human exclaims upon hearing the news.

"No matter what, this has happened. What we need to do is find the culprits, suppress them by any means necessary. It's best if we make them atone by fighting against Ghost Clan. The fact that they managed to destroy Fire Phoenix Base indicates their significant power, which can be seen as a silver lining for us."

"What kind of silver lining is this? Our strength has diminished even further. How can we stand against Ghost Clan like this?"

Arguments erupt among the group. If any Yan Yun Star individuals were present, they would be utterly shocked. These individuals are all highly influential figures; they are the true high-ranking members of Yan Yun Star.

Knowing they're outmatched by Ghost Clan, some opt to escape in Warships. However, there are still many who willingly stay to protect their homeworld. Whether they know they are descendants of invaders is unknown.

At least, in the face of Ghost Clan, they've played a leading role. Without them, Yan Yun Star would have fallen long ago.

They detest internal conflicts among humans the most. Upon hearing of Fire Phoenix Base's demise, they're almost driven to fury.

"Have we figured out who did it? Who annihilated Fire Phoenix Base?" a human figure of great influence pounds the table.

"We still don't know for sure. Fire Phoenix Base fell too quickly, and all communications have been jammed. The enemy seems to have crushed Fire Phoenix Base from all sides."

Without a single individual witnessing Red Alert Base's actions, they can almost envision the Ghost Clan forces sweeping through the base.

"Enough about that. Ghost Clan has been unusually quiet lately. I suspect they might be planning something major. Has any critical information been relayed through their spies?" (To be continued...)
