Full-Time Public Enemy-Chapter 679 - 500 The Suicide Squad_4
Balermo was more straightforward, "There's no time for talk, let's get moving."
Chairman White had already arranged the spaceship. They set off immediately and, in just half an hour, reached the Star Sea outside Sol Star.
Chairman White personally oversaw the operation, shaking hands and saying farewell to each team member, "Once you get within three kilometers of the surface, all electronic devices will fail, and we will lose contact. Everything is in your hands now!"
The small landing craft exited the spaceship's hatch and began its descent toward the planet.
All the team members lay inside the safety pods, bracing for potential attacks.
As the landing craft entered Sol Star's atmosphere and continued to descend, all electronic devices indeed went haywire upon reaching the three-kilometer mark.
Balermo stood up from the safety pod and began to manually operate the landing craft.
A few minutes later, with a loud bang, the landing craft crash-landed on the planet's surface, causing everyone to feel a strong jolt. Balermo scratched his head apologetically, "Sorry, I'm not an excellent pilot."
Chen Gu went to open the hatch, but the rough landing had deformed the hull, preventing it from opening normally. Balermo went over, pushed with his hand, and the heavy alloy hatch flew out with a WHOOSH...
The team members, wearing their individual mecha, filed out of the craft one by one.
The entire planet was a vast expanse of lush greenery—if one didn't know the situation, they might think this planet was teeming with life and had an excellent natural environment.
Chen Gu raised the weapons on his mecha, "Everyone, be careful!"
They had landed near a hillside—from a distance, they could even see the red SOS rescue signal.
Thanks to Balermo's exceptional piloting skills, they were over ten kilometers off their predetermined landing site...
The team geared up and set off, but after only a few hundred meters, Chen Gu suddenly stopped, "Wait a moment!"
Balermo, who was at the forefront, wore a heavy mecha enhanced with various large-caliber, powerful weapons. He turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Gu looked around and felt an eerie silence across the planet; not even the sound of the wind could be heard.
He lowered his head, "Do you feel it... the abundant life beneath the ground?"
"Hmm?" The team was baffled, but Charles understood. "Is there something under our feet?"
Before anyone could respond, around the deformed small landing craft they had left behind, suddenly, WHOOSH, WHOOSH, WHOOSH, huge green roots burst from the ground like a giant octopus on a surprise hunt. With a slam, they enveloped the landing craft. Then, with a fierce yank, they squashed the sixty-meter-long craft like a tin can and dragged it underground with those immense roots!
The ground began to tremble, quickly intensifying. The elite team, not requiring any reminders, activated their mecha's rocket engines, blasting flames from beneath their feet and their backs as they took to the sky.
The earth roiled like ocean waves, and with a thunderous boom, countless gigantic roots burst through the ground, shooting towards them in a dense, skin-crawling mass.
However, this attack missed its mark as Chen Gu and his team were already hundreds of meters in the air.
Balermo's frame shook as two large-caliber burst energy cannons flipped over his shoulders from behind, and he began firing down at the ground, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM! 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Under the terrifying energy onslaught, the roots broke apart and shattered, their fierce momentum momentarily halted.
Chen Gu said, "No need to waste ammunition here..."
Before he could finish his sentence, from the distant sky, a horde of bizarre plant-animal hybrid creatures came charging. These creatures were entirely green, with bodies like caterpillars and six slender insectoid legs underneath. Charles, the chatterbox, laughed, "They can't reach us if they're on the ground."
Before he could finish, those creatures struggled to extend a pair of huge, translucent wings from their worm-like bodies, then began flapping hard to take flight!
They resembled a combination of butterflies and plants, except that their terrifying mouthparts and the sharp, serrated edges of their wings made it clear they were neither friendly nor beautiful like butterflies.
Charles, staring dumbfounded at the swarm of approaching monsters, watched as Chen Gu turned and fled, cursing, "You jinx! Shut your mouth from now on!"
BUZZING...
The butterfly-like monsters swarmed in, covering the sky. Meanwhile, the roots on the ground, furious at having their prey stolen, thrashed in anger. Yet they were powerless against the battle raging high above.
