Tempest of the Stellar War

Chapter 382: You Fight, I’ll Struggle

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

Five minutes later, the shockwave was emitted. The bugs’ nest was stirred, and countless bugs streamed up. If someone was indeed hiding nearby, that would really mean their death.

The corrosion worms first appeared, and then a large number of sickle zerglings swarmed out.

"F***, this is going to kill someone!"

Two shadows appeared amongst the sickle zerglings, madly avoiding their assault. It was a member of the Ghana team.

Dozens of mecha rushed towards the group of sickle zerglings, while suppressive fire rained from the sky and the ground. Finally, they manage to rescue the two men of Ghana from the swarm.

However, the next second, the assault captain coldly laughed. "Prepare the stun guns!"

Boom...

They immediately fainted without any objections. The team immediately suppressed their fire and began to retreat.

These two were considered smart. If they had delayed for a moment, then it was truly hopeless.

Zhang Runan was dug out from a patch of swampy land. She had relied on her old tricks and hidden herself in the swamp, using a strand of reed to breathe. While she had managed to avoid two waves of the sweep, the military sweep did not only consist of a single scan, but was fully combing the area. A zone would not be ignored just because they had been there before. On the contrary, the fewer people that were found within the zone, the more personnel would be sent to that zone for the search.

Time slowly passed by. Meng Tian, Lie Guang, and Raston had all been found separately. Lie Guang was the most ingenious, and had infiltrated into the military. A pity that such a move had already been done before, and a sudden inspection had uncovered him. At the same time, another Aslanian participant was also uncovered, someone who had greeted Lie Guang... Both having had the same idea.

Boom...

A giant tree was tightly surrounded, with several military dogs barking at it.

"Come out by yourself," the commanding officer instructed.

Everything within four meters on both sides of the giant tree suddenly twisted. The smooth bark disappeared, revealing a huge hole. An elegant Atlantean was focusing the rune power on himself, waiting gracefully. However, he was shot down with a single stun. There was no use in showing off, and nobody cared who you were.

The illusion ability rune could avoid the infrared scans, but it was not able to conceal a person’s scent. However, the troops were still rather impressed, as the Atlanteans were indeed to hardest to catch.

At this time, the number of people who still had not been found only numbered in the tens. Other than utilizing military technology, the troops had also begun to use a few outdated methods of searching. The military dogs had done quite a bit of work, as even when the advanced sniffing machines were not able to do the job, the dogs were still able to find them. After all, the machines were inflexible objects. If there was not a 100% confirmation, they would not report the trace. On the other hand, even if the military dogs had a little trace, they would immediately raise an alarm. Some may say that it was a false positive, but sometimes, that little bit of intuition had dug up quite a number of participants.

Achilles had also fallen at this hurdle. He had locked all the pores on his body. Theoretically, there would be no residue of any odor in the air. However, the military dog ??still sensed him. Rubbing the dog’s head, Achilles was also unable to curse out at it.

Another two hours had passed. The competition between the 7th and the 19th Divisions was also coming to an end. The 7th Division was leading by forty-seven people, and now, only twenty-four participants still had not been found, and five of them were from Atlantis.

"What? Still not admitting defeat?"

The division commander of the 7th Division said on the Skynet communications while happily puffing on a cigar. This was a limited edition cigar, and he normally could not bear to smoke it.

The 19th division commander, Moria, had a gloomy face, while the faces of the other commanders beside him had all turned blue. No meat, no vacations, these were things that the division commander could indeed carry out, and it was not the first time. The next few months would be torturous.

"This hasn’t ended. As we get nearer to the end, they get harder to catch. I feel that these last twenty-four guys count for three per head, how about it?"

The military’s search methods were done layer by layer. The whole zone had already been combed through at least ten or twenty times. It was not an exaggeration that they had dug three feet down, but there were still twenty-four others that had not been found. It may be slightly difficult, but no one doubted that they would never be found. In the history of the IG competition, during this round, they had always found every single participant, and no one had been able to hide from the search. If they were dead, the life signal at the headquarters would then switch off automatically.

"Shall we continue?"

"Continue!"

The commander of the 19th division ignited his inner fire. Originally, this search was given as a mission. While it was fun to take it as a competition, it would be difficult to suffer through the lack of meat and vacations. However, Aslan’s training program truly had such a course, and it was just advanced training for the troops.

However, this was now a battle of their honor. A difference of forty-seven people. If others heard about it, wouldn’t they look down on the 19th Division in the future?

The 7th Division also picked up their pace. This was almost a certain victory, and they did not want it to fly out of their grasp. The title of being undefeated could not be taken for granted.

The unmanned drones in the air had doubled, and the timings at which the banshees were dispatched increased in frequency. Any sort of clue was investigated, no matter if it was left behind by a human or not.

The mecha pilots were watching the show, providing a hundred percent support to the troops.

"Target found in H18! Atlanteans, two of them!"

"An Arbiter found in the Y9 zone!"

...

...

The reports continuously came in. The Atlanteans were no longer able to withstand the drain of using their runes, and Aslan’s soldiers and the level of military technology represented the peak of humanity. Without considering the costs, they had spent all their efforts in locating the participants, and the Atlanteans could only acknowledge that fact.

Rodriguez looked at the time. Almost twenty-four hours had passed, and basically everyone should have been caught. Although it was an IG game, if it took too long, it would also cause Aslanian soldiers to lose face.

Judging from the current situation, although it was a group of elites, the round-up of the Aslanian army was still difficult to escape from.

"General, currently there are still over ten people left," the officer under his command reported, and the time had just passed the twenty-four hour mark.

Rodriguez smiled slightly. His original intention was to solve the problem within 24 hours. Although there were still ten missing fish, the results were not too unexpected. This year’s IG was the best in 20 years, and it was normal to have such performance.

"Raise the morale of the troops, and dig out these few cheeky brats."

"Yes, General!"

In the square, the captured participants had already assembled in their respective teams after being processed. Those that had been caught earlier watched as they brought the others in one by one, waking them up, treating them, and then dumping them here.

It was unavoidable that those who had been sent here the earliest were embarrassed with their performance. Near the end, the participants did not have any shame on their faces, and were even looking down on the others, yet the rest who had been crushed could only look on sullenly.

Of course, some of the participants were dissatisfied. For some countries, they indeed did not specialize in this area. However, a test was a test, and it was useless to be frustrated with the result. What’s more, this test was a test of the individual’s comprehensive ability.

As the participants increased in number, the count on the main screen got smaller and smaller. Finally, the number had reduced to ten. The ten people had the right to be arrogant, as they had survived for more than 24 hours.

"Aslan’s Gemini, Sword Saint Aurora, Sword Magician Oz, Atlantis’ Bordia, Arbiter’s Olivios, Ghana Star’s Leandre, Manalasuo’s Vincent, Silver Snake Republic’s Kong Zhan, Gemini Galaxy’s Ao Ziwei, ...Solar System’s Lear and Zhang Shan."

The generals were also discussing the results, obviously proud of the warriors belonging to their own countries. There was nothing much more to be said about the Aslan Empire, who could be considered the most arrogant in the entire world. Atlantis’ Bordia was also a famous character, proficient in both the techniques of Atlantis and that of humanity’s. Arbiter’s Olivios... this person was not an unknown, better known as a murderous killer, but he was still considered a hero in Arbiter. Ghana Star’s Leandre was a Naga, and these type of races had an advantage living in the wilderness, thus the results were not too surprising. Manalasuo’s Vincent was the leader of their new generation, and the Silver Snake Republic’s Kong Zhan was the captain of the team, which had achieved great results the last competition. Gemini Galaxy’s Ao Ziwei was the only female, and was able to be the captain of the Gemini team. Her strength was beyond doubt.

...but in the list of ten people, there were two inconspicuous ones...

Two members of the Solar System squad...... the Earthlings.

Achilles and the rest had been captured, and Meng Tian had been caught even earlier. Faced with the huge numbers and superior equipment of the army, it was too difficult to hide. Everyone had tried their best, but there was no way to hide. Let alone them, even the other stronger competitors did not have a chance.

Therefore, they really did admire those who had still managed to remain concealed. Perhaps there was an element of luck, but only relying on luck was definitely not enough.
