Chapter 46 Emerald Special Forces Armor! The Counterattack Begins!
With the antidote formula, they could mass-produce it in the base's laboratory.
This way, they could cure the frenzied state of those who had gone mad.
Once these citizens returned to normal, they could launch a counterattack against the Black Stone Pirates!
But at this moment, Hartley, the general commander, grew suspicious of Lu Jin.
"This blood mist only appeared a short while ago, why do you know its composition and the antidote formula?"
In an instant, everyone's gaze focused on Lu Jin.
At this moment, they even suspected that Lu Jin was a spy sent by the Black Opal Family.
But Lu Jin remained calm; he had ample human and material evidence to prove his innocence.
Moreover, this blood mist was naturally a signature method of the Blood Race.
In his previous life, Lu Jin had encountered countless blood mist attacks, and the blood mist in his past life memories was even stronger than the current one.
Its effect was not merely to drive people mad, or make them grow fangs and claws.
After being heavily inhaled by living beings, the beings would even gradually transform into true Blood Servants!
Lu Jin had long anticipated the Blood Race's methods, which was why he had developed the antidote in advance.
But now it seemed his antidote was many versions ahead of the blood mist!
"I don't believe this guy, he might be an undercover agent sent by the Black Opal Family!"
"I don't believe it either. To deliver an antidote at this critical moment, it's too suspicious!"
"I suggest we arrest this guy first!"
Almost all of the Emerald Family's high-ranking officials expressed suspicion towards the sudden appearance of Lu Jin.
Even the Emerald Family guards around them were subtly approaching.
Facing such an attitude from the Emerald Family's high-ranking officials, Lu Jin chuckled, then directly shed his disguise as a good-natured gentleman.
"The Black Opal Family alone cannot command me!"
"If I harbored hostility towards you, believe me."
"Everyone present, the moment I stepped in here, you would have already been decapitated."
Before he finished speaking, Shelia and Yin Yue behind Lu Jin immediately unleashed the full power of their psionic pressure.
The violent psionic pressure swept through the entire room like a storm.
All the commanders felt this violent psionic power, pressing down on them like a giant rock!
At this moment, they suddenly understood!
What Lu Jin said was not a lie!
With just the two powerful Psionicists behind him, he could indeed kill all of them on the spot in an instant.
Hartley knelt on one knee, directly before Lu Jin.
His attitude underwent a complete 180-degree change, and he was gasping for air.
If it weren't for the protection of his power armor, Hartley would probably already be prostrate before Lu Jin.
"My lord, our Emerald Family was arrogant."
"I sincerely apologize to you here!"
The other commanders at this moment were unable to breathe, speechless.
Lu Jin waved his hand, and Shelia and Yin Yue retracted their psionic pressure.
At this moment, everyone seemed like drowning people, all gasping for air.
What terrifying psionic pressure!
Just as Lu Jin said, when he stepped in here, he could have killed everyone.
After all, although they were all high-ranking members of the Emerald Family, they had no means to deal with Psionicists.
Only another, more powerful Psionicist could defeat a Psionicist.
"If you still don't believe me, you can find a frenzied person to experiment on."
After saying his final words, Lu Jin left the room directly.
By this time, his continued presence there would only hinder the Emerald Family's efforts.
Stepping out of the room, Lu Jin looked up at the sky.
Looking at the planetary defense system that sealed off the entire planet, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
He had calculated everything, yet he had failed to account for the existence of the planetary defense system.
Now, all he could rely on were the items in his backpack, and Shelia and Yin Yue by his side.
It would take time to prepare a large amount of antidote. Taking advantage of the free time, Lu Jin went to the edge of the family base.
The entire family base's defense facilities were divided into two layers!
Firstly, the outermost part was a combined shield system composed of energy barriers.
A massive energy barrier enveloped the entire family base.
And once the shield system was breached, they would face the second defensive measure: a protective fence made of high-strength metal.
The strength of this fence was such that even continuous bombardment with cannonballs would not cause the slightest damage!
Beyond these two defensive measures were the frenzied crowds, and behind the crowds, the Black Stone Pirates, continuously bombarding with various tanks and armored vehicles.
At this moment, these Black Stone Pirates had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.
Under their bombardment, the outermost shield system was already beginning to show signs of weakening.
The defending members of the Emerald Family, seeing the gradually dimming shield, couldn't help but panic.
"Damn it! These Black Stone Pirates are taking advantage of having hostages, they don't take us seriously at all!"
"Our dignified Gem Family, to be so humiliated!"
"If it really comes down to it, we'll charge out now and fight them to the death!"
Among the crowd, some more hot-blooded family members wished they could rush out and fight the Black Stone Pirates right now.
But in the midst of such commotion, a voice suddenly echoed from within the Emerald Family base.
"Attention all Emerald Family members, enter Level One Alert status!"
As the voice fell, the ground began to tremble.
Immediately after, Lu Jin witnessed the rich heritage of the Emerald Family as a Gem Family.
A fully armed special operations team appeared in everyone's sight.
They wore emerald green special operations power armor, its model and type so unfamiliar that even the well-informed Lu Jin couldn't identify it.
The special operations power armor was three meters tall, equipped with two thunderous twin blades on its back.
For long-range combat, the power armor's shoulders were fitted with four mini heavy Gatling machine guns!
The sides of its arms were equipped with the Emerald Family's exclusive five-layer alloy material, with defense strong enough to withstand even warship firepower!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The armed team, clad in heavy armor, moved like walking human tanks!
The family gate opened with a roar!
The shield system also closed accordingly!
The unobstructed frenzied ones surged into the family base like a swarm of bees.
Seeing this, the family members responsible for defense clenched their weapons, preparing to meet the attack of the frenzied ones.
The Black Stone Pirates in the distance also smiled at the sight.
"Hahaha, their shield system has been breached by us!"
"No, why is their gate open too?"
"Is the Emerald Family preparing to surrender?"
"How is that possible? I have a bad feeling!"
Just as they had anticipated, as the frenzied ones approached the family base, a group of experimental personnel holding sprayers immediately appeared behind the armed team!
+++
Chapter 47 Get Out of the Way If You Don't Want to Die! The Head of the Emerald Family!
As the sprayers released the antidote from the storage compartment, a large amount of mist directly fell on the frenzied crowd.
After inhaling the antidote, the frenzied crowd gradually began to recover.
The madness in their eyes disappeared, replaced by deep confusion.
"Where is this place?"
"Wasn't I attending the Gem Auction?"
"Why am I here? Isn't this the Emerald Family's base?"
"What exactly happened?"
Everyone was full of questions, but the Emerald Family had no time to answer them.
The Emerald Armed Squad, like a battle tank, walked straight out of the family base.
A loud voice spread from the sound system of the power armor!
"The Emerald Family is about to carry out an armed suppression!"
"Those who don't want to die, get out of the way!"
Hearing the sound, everyone's gaze fell on the Armed Squad.
Upon seeing the fully armed squad, those who had sobered up involuntarily made way!
And the Armed Squad successfully broke through the encirclement formed by the crowd!
Now, when the Black Stone Pirates saw the Emerald Family's Armed Squad, they no longer had their previous composure.
"Damn it! The blood mist failed!"
"The Emerald Family developed an antidote so quickly?"
"Quickly report the situation here to the captain!"
Before he finished speaking, the members of the Armed Squad immediately fanned out.
Several missiles popped out of their arms!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The missiles targeted the Black Stone Pirates' armed convoy and launched directly.
Accompanied by a series of soaring flames!
The Black Stone Pirates, caught off guard, were completely unable to resist the Armed Squad's attack!
But after a round of bombing, the Emerald Family's Armed Squad still did not stop their actions.
As the mini heavy Gatling guns on their shoulders began to rotate, bullets poured down like a storm once again into the Black Stone Pirates' formation!
The Armed Squad advanced while suppressing with firepower!
Although it was an Armed Squad composed of only dozens of people, its firepower was enough to make the Black Stone Pirates, numbering tens of thousands, unable to raise their heads.
The Emerald Family's Armed Squad, like wolves entering a flock of sheep, continuously crushed the Black Stone Pirates in their line of sight.
Seeing this, Lu Jin also affirmed the strength of the Gem Family.
After all, as a vital financial center, the credit points earned by the Brilliant Galaxy each year were enough for the Gem Family to build a formidable armed force.
Now, seeing these special combat power armors custom-made by the Emerald Family, he finally understood that the Gem Family's foundation was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
But just then, a loud bang suddenly erupted in the center of the battlefield!
A giant armed vehicle actually stood up directly, transforming into a five-meter-tall heavy armed mecha!
The Black Stone Pirate in the cockpit had a ferocious expression, looking at the Emerald Family's Armed Squad.
Boom!
The mecha slammed a punch down!
The hit family member immediately activated all the performance of his power armor!
The collision between the two immediately caused a ripple of aftershock in the surroundings.
And the surrounding Armed Squad members, seeing this, immediately drew the lightning blades from their backs!
Slash!
With a downward slash, terrifying currents directly permeated the entire mecha.
The Black Stone Pirate sitting in the mecha's cockpit twitched all over!
But even so, he still pulled the joystick.
The massive mecha delivered a fierce blow, directly sweeping away the Armed Squad members next to it.
Seeing this, everyone's hearts couldn't help but pound.
The Black Stone Pirates actually had an armed mecha hidden!
Although power armor was powerful, it was still armor after all, and compared to mechanical power mechas, it was somewhat inferior in all aspects!
And at this moment, Lu Jin's gaze fell on Shelia beside him.
"Shelia, go help them."
Receiving Lu Jin's instructions, Shelia did not hesitate at all.
She leaped up, and her figure transformed directly into the appearance of a Star Hunting Dragon in mid-air!
The moment she arrived above the heavy mecha, her dragon claws directly gripped the mecha's cockpit!
Her dragon wings flapped, and the mecha directly lifted into the air!
Upon reaching a certain height, Shelia directly released her dragon claws, and then a ball of flames, like a bomb, directly fell onto the giant mecha.
Boom!
Flames instantly enveloped the entire mecha.
The mecha fell from the sky, landing directly on the ground!
When the flames dissipated, the Black Stone Pirate in the cockpit was already unconscious!
Seeing this, the surrounding Armed Squad did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.
The lightning blade was directly plunged into the cockpit, taking his life before the Black Stone Pirate had fully woken up!
Seeing their last trump card also dealt with, the Black Stone Pirates no longer had the courage to continue fighting.
Looking at the Black Stone Pirates, who began to scatter like stray dogs, Cui Yuxin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
And the rescued survivors were also taken into the Emerald Family's base.
Hartley came to Lu Jin's side; his attitude towards Lu Jin had undergone a complete change.
Now, Hartley felt only reverence and immense gratitude towards Lu Jin.
If it weren't for Lu Jin's antidote, they would probably have been trapped for a long time.
"Mr. Lu Jin, thanks to your intervention, our Emerald Family was able to resolve this crisis!"
"We have already transmitted your antidote formula to the other Gem Families!"
"I believe that the other Gem Families, upon receiving the antidote formula, will also be very grateful for your contribution!"
"In addition, our family head, Ms. Filina, the leader of the Emerald Family, wishes to meet you."
The head of the Emerald Family?
Lu Jin was somewhat curious, because from the moment he entered the Emerald Family until now, he had not seen the family head.
In such a critical moment for the family's survival, shouldn't the family head be the first to step forward?
Putting aside his thoughts, Lu Jin followed Hartley to a mansion in the very center of the Emerald Family.
This was the core of the Emerald Family, the residence of Ms. Filina, the family head.
The moment Lu Jin pushed open the door and entered the mansion, a strong scent of medicine wafted towards him!
Looking around, rather than a mansion, it was more like a medical center.
When Lu Jin saw the family head, Filina, he was even more shocked!
Because the emaciated woman lying on the bed, covered in various infusion tubes, was actually Ms. Filina, the head of the Emerald Family!
"What exactly is going on?"
The woman lying on the sickbed, no matter how one looked at her, was a dying existence.
Such an existence was the family head leading the Emerald Family?
And at this moment, on the large screen in front of the sickbed, a line of subtitles suddenly appeared!
"I apologize for letting an outsider see me in my current state."
"Mr. Lu Jin, thank you very much for your contribution to the Emerald Family."
"At the same time, I am also very grateful for your protection of my daughters!"
+++
Chapter 48 Family Agent! Mithril Equipment!
"Daughter?"
Seeing Lu Jin's confusion, another line of text appeared on the screen.
"My daughters, Cui Yuxin and Ming Cuixi, I'm sure you have already met them."
Upon seeing this line of text, Lu Jin finally understood.
It turned out that the sisters Cui Yuxin and Ming Cuixi were actually the daughters of Filina, the head of the Emerald Family.
Immediately after, Hartley continued to explain to Lu Jin.
The reason for the antagonistic relationship between the Emerald Family and the Black Opal Family.
It was because several years ago, Ms. Filina, the head of the Emerald Family, was severely injured in an accident.
And the Black Opal Family had a hand in that accident.
Unfortunately, the Emerald Family did not obtain concrete evidence against the Black Opal Family!
As the head of the Emerald Family through generations, Ms. Filina's contributions were immense; she led the Emerald Family from being the weakest to its current standing.
Even in the current situation, she was still burning her last bit of life force to manage the overall situation.
This made Lu Jin regard her with respect.
Logically speaking, under such circumstances, Ms. Filina could have stopped and rested.
But for the sake of the Emerald Family, she chose to persevere.
"Mr. Lu Jin, from the moment you entered the Brilliant Galaxy, I have been paying attention to you."
"origin warship, Star Hunting Dragon, Star Sea Elves—you have too many secrets, so many that even I don't know how many trump cards you possess."
"I have never seen a Blue Star Human like you, capable of holding so many miracles in your hands!"
"Therefore, I believe even more strongly that you can once again create a miracle!"
"The current Black Opal Family is no longer the Gem Family it once was, so I implore you."
"Save the last remaining Gem Family!"
Upon seeing these lines of text, Lu Jin's eyes narrowed slightly.
He hadn't expected that from the moment he stepped into the Brilliant Galaxy, he had already been targeted by the head of the Emerald Family.
But Lu Jin didn't feel annoyed, because his goal and that of the Emerald Family were consistent.
That was to completely eradicate the Black Opal Family.
Now that both sides had laid their cards on the table, cooperation naturally became much smoother.
When Lu Jin walked out of the mansion, Cui Yuxin and the others had already been waiting outside for a long time.
Cui Yuxin was the most nervous; she really wanted to know what her mother had told Lu Jin.
But before she could speak, Lu Jin directly took out an emblem.
Upon seeing the pattern on the emblem, everyone was shocked.
The Family Head's Emblem?!
Why was the Family Head's Emblem, which belonged to the head of the Gem Family, now in Lu Jin's hands?
Hartley, who had been standing next to Lu Jin, then explained to everyone.
"By order of the Family Head, from now on!"
"Mr. Lu Jin will be our Emerald Family's acting Family Head!"
"Everything he does, everything he says, represents the Family Head's will!"
What?
Many family members were utterly shocked!
Even Cui Yuxin couldn't understand!
Why would her mother choose Lu Jin to be the acting Family Head?
As a high-ranking member of the family and her daughter, wasn't she qualified enough?
Just as Cui Yuxin was finding it difficult to comprehend, Lu Jin walked up to her.
"Your mother asked me to relay a message to you."
"First and foremost, she is a mother; only then is she the head of the Emerald Family."
That's right!
Even being hailed as the wisest Emerald Family Head in history, Ms. Filina was, first and foremost, a mother.
She did not wish to involve Cui Yuxin in this conflict!
Because she knew very well that after this chaos ended, the Gem Family would either disappear.
Or the Gem Family would be severely crippled!
No matter the outcome, it would inevitably draw Cui Yuxin into immense danger.
Therefore, Filina chose Lu Jin to be the acting Family Head.
There was no one more suitable than Lu Jin!
Just then, a family member rushed over hastily.
"Reporting, Lord Hartley, we have received communication signals from the Taffy Family and the Tasan Family!"
"The Taffy Family and the Tasan Family have successfully developed the antidote based on our antidote formula and have broken through the Black Stone Pirates' encirclement!"
"Furthermore, the Taffy Family and the Tasan Family have accepted our alliance invitation!"
Excellent!
Hartley's eyes lit up upon hearing this news!
Now, they had successfully contacted the other two Gem Families!
And the other two Gem Families had already chosen to ally with the Emerald Family.
Their next goal was simple: to eradicate the Black Opal Family and drive out all the Black Stone Pirates!
"Mr. Lu Jin, what should we do next?"
Hartley's gaze fell on Lu Jin; their ability to achieve combined results so quickly was all due to Lu Jin's efforts, and now that Lu Jin was the acting Family Head, Hartley naturally fully supported it.
Lu Jin stroked his chin, and after a moment of thought, he handed a formula directly to Hartley.
"Does your family have any Mithril material internally?"
"Mithril?"
Hartley pondered for a moment, then called for the logistics personnel.
After receiving information on the Mithril inventory, he immediately reported it to Lu Jin.
"Reporting, Mr. Lu Jin, there are 20 tons of Mithril material in the warehouse."
20 tons of Mithril material?
Lu Jin hadn't expected there to be so much Mithril.
Hartley also explained to Lu Jin that Ms. Filina had upgraded the Emerald Family's warehouse system since she took office.
Periodically, the Emerald Family would conduct a series of procurements based on the rarity of materials.
This was to prevent metal materials from being monopolized by the enemy at a critical moment, thereby putting the Emerald Family at a disadvantage.
Although the use of Mithril as a metal was not widespread, the Emerald Family still stockpiled a considerable amount.
These materials had been accumulating for a long time; if Lu Jin hadn't brought it up, probably only the warehouse manager would remember these Mithril materials.
After listening to Hartley's explanation, Lu Jin couldn't help but once again feel respect for Ms. Filina.
It was precisely because of Ms. Filina's regulation that Lu Jin felt the upcoming battle could be concluded more easily!
"Next, I will issue my first order as acting Family Head."
"Within 24 hours, forge all this Mithril into equipment; I want to see the Emerald Family's Mithril weapons on the battlefield!"
Mithril weapons?
Hartley was utterly perplexed; Mithril, as a material, had very poor toughness, so making it into equipment wouldn't it weaken the Emerald Family's combat power?
But considering that Lu Jin was now the acting Family Head, Hartley immediately began issuing orders!
The entire Emerald Family immediately dragged out the long-sealed Mithril materials from the warehouse, brushed off the dust, and all the Mithril was sent into the family's military factory!
Similarly, the Taffy Family and the Tasan Family also received information from the Emerald Family.
They were to fully forge Mithril equipment, and they would proceed to the Planetary Defense Center in 24 hours to attack the Planetary Defense Center occupied by the Black Opal Family!
+++
Chapter 49 The Gemstone Alliance! The Price of Arrogance!
"What? Mithril equipment?"
"How can something like Mithril compare to multi-alloy materials?"
"What in the world is the Emerald Family up to?"
"Now that the Black Stone Pirates have been heavily damaged, why not just directly attack the Planetary Defense Center?"
The high-ranking members of the Tasan Family and Taffy Family were utterly bewildered upon receiving the information.
They wouldn't even glance at Mithril when purchasing items normally!
And now that they had the antidote formula, eliminating the Black Opal Family and annihilating the Black Stone Pirates should be an easy feat, shouldn't it?
Although the Tasan Family and Taffy Family were extremely confused by the Emerald Family's message.
However, considering that the Emerald Family provided the antidote formula, and that it would be somewhat risky for just their two families to take down the Planetary Defense Center.
They could only wait, waiting for the Emerald Family's actions after 24 hours.
24 hours was an incredibly grueling wait for the other two families.
But for the Emerald Family's logistics, it was a fierce battle.
Within a mere 24 hours, they successfully converted all the Mithril into equipment.
At this moment, even the family members' firearm bullets were plated with a layer of Mithril.
All the equipment was infused with Mithril components, just as Lu Jin had instructed.
"Reporting, Mr. Lu Jin, our troops have all been equipped with Mithril as per your instructions!"
Under Hartley's gaze, Lu Jin took out a bullet from a kinetic firearm.
Indeed, the bullet tip had been replaced with Mithril.
Lu Jin nodded with satisfaction and reinserted the bullet into the firearm!
"Excellent! We can depart now!"
With Hartley's command, all the armed forces at the Emerald Family's base began to move.
At the very front of the convoy, magnetic levitation armored vehicles carrying the family's armed members started first.
Following closely, several heavy armored trucks, pulling one Emerald Special Forces Power Armor after another, caught up with the convoy ahead!
And behind these trucks was a heavy-duty cargo engineering vehicle, reaching twenty meters in height.
A large number of reconnaissance drones appeared in the sky, and Lu Jin sat in a disguised command center armored vehicle, constantly monitoring various situations on the road ahead!
Soon, the teams of the Taffy Family and Tasan Family appeared in Lu Jin's view.
Compared to the Emerald Family, the Taffy Family and Tasan Family's troop scale was even larger!
Even the Taffy Family's cargo engineering vehicle contained several Valkyrie-type bomber aircraft.
At this moment, the Head of the Taffy Family and the Head of the Tasan Family entered the Gem Alliance Army's communication channel respectively.
"Oh? Hartley is here too?"
"Is Hartley the overall commander for this battle?"
"If it's Hartley, those guys are in for it!"
"I apologize, two Heads of Family, I am not the overall commander for this battle."
Following this, Hartley introduced Lu Jin to the two Heads of Family.
Upon learning that Lu Jin was now the Emerald Family's representative, the two Heads of Family clearly fell silent.
Evidently, they did not approve of Lu Jin, a Blue Star Human, being the overall commander.
One must know that Hartley had commanded various Gem Family battles, and his command abilities were recognized even by the Heads of other families.
Now, the command authority was being handed over to an unknown Blue Star Human.
How could such an arrangement reassure the Heads of the two families?
As if sensing the dissatisfaction of the two Heads of Family, Lu Jin smiled faintly and stated with great nonchalance.
"Although the Gem Alliance Army is composed of three families, our goals are all the same."
"To eradicate the Black Opal Family, annihilate the Black Stone Pirates, and rescue the Blue Cone Family."
"Since our goals are consistent, you are free to act on your own once you reach the battlefield."
"The only troops I can command are those of the Emerald Family."
At this point, even Hartley understood the meaning behind Lu Jin's words.
And the two Heads of Family, who had been dismissive of Lu Jin, directly stated that they would command their troops according to their own will.
After all, in their eyes, Lu Jin's command abilities were inferior to those of their own family members.
After the others left the communication channel, Hartley couldn't help but ask Lu Jin.
"Mr. Lu Jin, is this really alright?"
Facing Hartley's doubts, Lu Jin explained to him.
Although he was the provider of the antidote, he was, after all, a Blue Star Human, and his experience was still shallow.
Even if the Emerald Family recognized him, the other two families would not easily do so.
In such a situation, if he were to forcibly command the troops of these two families, it would have the opposite effect.
It would be better to let these families suffer a bit and humble their arrogance.
Suffer a bit?
Hartley glanced at the Gem Alliance Army's scale and configuration.
With such a scale and configuration, could they still suffer a setback?
Before Hartley could voice his doubts, an explosion suddenly occurred on the road ahead!
Boom!
With a loud bang, a fully occupied armored vehicle was directly blown into the sky.
And this armored vehicle was a Taffy Family troop carrier.
The Head of the Taffy Family immediately entered the command channel, and based on the drone footage, he immediately saw the battle situation ahead.
On their way to the Planetary Defense Center, thousands of soldiers wearing exoskeleton armor appeared in their sight like monsters!
These soldiers all bore the emblem of the Blue Cone Family, but at this moment, they were like a rampaging crowd, attacking the Taffy Family soldiers frantically with fangs and claws!
Seeing this, the Head of the Taffy Family immediately reacted!
"They are berserkers affected by the blood mist! Quickly use the antidote to rescue these Blue Cone Family soldiers!"
"The Black Opal Family is too careless; he probably doesn't know we've already developed an antidote!"
"All soldiers, attention! The ones attacking us are berserk friendly forces. Please be careful not to harm friendly forces and wait for the antidote team to come and treat them!"
As soon as the words fell, the communication channel was filled with chaotic sounds from the front line.
A Taffy Family armed member, looking at the charging Blue Cone Family member, initially intended to attack.
But after receiving the message, he quickly switched to a defensive stance!
However, the opposing Blue Cone Family member would not let him go; that Blue Cone Family member, like a beast, directly tackled him to the ground!
Fangs bit down, and the member immediately used his firearm to block.
But in the next second, that berserk Blue Cone Family member actually bit through the firearm with his fangs!
Seeing this scene, the Taffy Family armed member's scalp immediately tingled!
Something is wrong!
The berserk crowds before never had such powerful attack strength!
Suddenly, the berserk Blue Cone Family member directly bit into the neck of the Taffy Family armed member.
The sharp fangs actually pierced directly through the equipment made of multi-alloy, straight into the flesh beneath the skin!
+++
Chapter 50: The Ineffective Antidote! A Completely Different Ending!
Accompanied by a scream, the attacked Taffy Family member began to struggle violently.
The belated antidote squad immediately raised their sprayers.
A large amount of antidote spray fell on the two family members.
Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the two family members who had fallen to the ground staggered to their feet.
To the horror of the antidote squad, the Blue Cone Family member not only did not return to normal.
Instead, the attacked Taffy Family member also grew fangs and claws!
Roar!
The two family members let out roars like wild beasts.
The next second, the two frenzied family members, like wolves entering a flock of sheep, charged directly into the antidote squad!
A series of screams echoed through the communication channel.
Hearing these screams, the patriarchs of the Taffy Family and the Tasan Family immediately felt that something was amiss.
"Damn it! These antidotes are completely useless!"
"Everyone be careful, these Blue Cone Family members have completely turned into monsters!"
"What do we do next? Do we fight back?"
"These guys are completely different from those frenzied citizens, my armor has been torn by them!"
The armed members of the Taffy Family and the Tasan Family were sweating profusely at this moment.
The equipment they wore was actually unable to withstand the fangs of these guys!
It should be known that the equipment they used was made of alloy, and its standard could even be compared to ship materials.
But even so, it still couldn't block the fangs of these "monsters"!
What on earth is going on!
The teams of the Taffy Family and the Tasan Family immediately fell into chaos.
And as the patriarchs of the two families, they immediately sought out Hartley!
Hartley was also shocked after learning of the battle situation at the front.
The antidote failed?
How is this possible?
But soon, he obtained key information from the intelligence.
Unlike those frenzied citizens, these family members, although they had fangs and claws, also had their physical qualities greatly enhanced!
Being able to break through alloy-made armor defense with just fangs is no longer something ordinary creatures can do!
Thinking of this, Hartley immediately came to the command center.
Lu Jin, in the command center, looked as if he had long expected Hartley's arrival.
"Mr. Lu Jin, the antidote at the front line has failed!"
Failed?
Lu Jin smiled faintly, the antidote he formulated was only for creatures affected by the blood mist.
But now, what they were facing were Blood Servants personally transformed by Vampire Vassals.
The transformation methods of the two are different, so how could the same antidote work?
Lu Jin opened the monitoring screen of the command center, and it could be seen that Lu Jin had control over everything happening on the battlefield.
Intercepting one of the screens, Lu Jin magnified it.
"Do you see any difference?"
The screen showed a Blue Cone Family member attacking an armed member of the Tasan Family.
After a brief observation, Hartley quickly noticed something was wrong.
Blood holes appeared on the necks of these "monsters."
And these blood holes were not present on those frenzied citizens!
That is to say, these monsters and those frenzied citizens were completely two different situations!
Thinking of this, Hartley couldn't help but look at Lu Jin.
"The members of the Blue Cone Family are beyond saving."
That's right!
Once transformed into a Vampire!
They can never recover; this is the horror of the Vampires!
"Do you still remember the Mithril equipment I asked you to manufacture?"
"Now, it's time to use that equipment."
After hearing these words, a hint of sadness involuntarily appeared in Hartley's eyes.
In other words, they were going to personally deal with the former Blue Cone Family!
But soon, Hartley's eyes became firm!
At least, he couldn't let the survivors also become such monsters!
Bang!
A Tasan Family member on the battlefield directly raised his firearm and aimed at the frenzied family member who was about to attack.
But as the bullet directly pierced the opponent's head, the opponent did not fall.
Instead, after standing still for a period, the bullet hole in his head slowly began to heal.
Seeing this scene, the Tasan Family member's face turned pale.
Their firearms couldn't even harm this monster, so how else could they deal with these monsters!
And just then, an armed member of the Emerald Family came to his side.
The armed member of the Emerald Family raised his firearm, pulled the trigger, and aimed at a frenzied family member.
As the bullet streaked across the sky, the bullet with a Mithril warhead directly hit the opponent's head.
In an instant, the frenzied family member stopped in place, mouth agape.
Hoarse, difficult roars emanated from his throat.
And the armed Tasan Family member suddenly noticed that the bullet hole on the frenzied family member's body was emitting wisps of ash-like substance.
Before long, the frenzied family member directly fell to the ground!
He's dead?
Both were headshots, so why was the difference between the two so completely different?
Before the members of other families could react, the Emerald Family's power armor descended on the front lines.
The huge commotion quickly attracted many frenzied family members.
They, like zombies, directly attacked the Emerald power armor.
The family member inside the armor had cold eyes, and directly pulled out specially made large-caliber shotguns from his waist!
"May you rest in peace!"
Bang!
Mithril bullets poured out like a rainstorm!
The hit frenzied individuals immediately fell to the ground, their bodies turning into ashes and dissipating where they came into contact with Mithril.
Seeing how powerful the Mithril equipment was, the other armed members of the Emerald Family no longer felt any fear.
"Execute the sweeping operation!"
Hundreds of machine gun armed members directly lined up.
Pull the trigger!
Mithril bullets turned into specks of starlight, directly covering all the frenzied individuals on the front line.
Facing the Mithril equipment, these frenzied family members were completely unable to resist.
As tanks and firepower continued to advance, the armed members of the Tasan Family and the Taffy Family, seeing the terrifying effectiveness of the Emerald Family's equipment, couldn't help but feel envious!
"This firepower is too strong!"
"When did the Emerald Family become so powerful?"
"Our bullets are useless against those monsters, why are the Emerald Family's bullets so effective?"
"If this continues, it's estimated that it won't even be our turn to act; the Emerald Family alone will be enough."
And after seeing the power of the Mithril equipment, the patriarchs of the two families were even more restless.
They directly approached Lu Jin, wanting to inquire from him how to manufacture this special equipment.
