The base's defense shield repelled the initial attacks from enemy spaceships, while Liang Yuan's forces engaged the attackers. The situation escalated when the enemy began dropping boxes that released green smoke, attracting dangerous mutant beasts and causing chaos. Liang Yuan and other ice-attribute users worked to neutralize the threat, but the enemy countered by targeting Liang Yuan directly. He transformed into an Ice Bear to defend, successfully repelling the assault and turning the tide of battle, but the enemy leader, Wang Tian'an, prepared to intervene.

After Wang Tian’an’s gene recombination, he turned into a giant mantis form!

This genetic recombination expert, serving as the Hell Island administrator at Kerry Technology Company, had reached a 40% gene progression, and was even known as the ’Insect Source Great Saint’.

At this moment, he immediately assumed his strongest form!

[Star Mantis]!

Swish!

Wang Tian’an’s wings vibrated, and the mantis instantly transformed into a green line, shooting towards the Ice Bear!

Thud!

The green line, like a green light, instantly struck the ice block near the Ice Bear.

There was no intense explosion sound, only a thud was heard.

In an instant, the ice block shattered, and Wang Tian’an’s speed barely diminished.

Still like a green light, he penetrated into the ice ball of the Ice Bear.

Thud, thud, thud...

The sound of thuds echoed continuously.

The Star Mantis paused, its scythe-like upper limbs wielding like a green whirlwind.

In an instant, thuds resounded continuously, as large amounts of ice debris exploded and flew.

The ice ball showed a massive penetrating crack at a visible speed, straight towards Liang Yuan’s true form inside!

A trace of surprise flashed in Liang Yuan’s eyes.

"What a fast blade!"

Is this mantis possibly a Constitution genetic form?

The attack method is actually this primitive?

Liang Yuan directly activated his superpower, and in an instant, the cracked ice ball closed up, the terrifying cold air replenishing the crack.

The ice ball spun rapidly, and the next moment, fiercely smashed towards the green mantis.

Boom!

Under the impact of the ice star, the terrifying boom instantly exploded.

The green Star Mantis couldn’t dodge in time, its scythe arms crossed fiercely on its chest.

A cold smile flashed in Wang Tian’an’s eyes.

"Going head-to-head? Afraid of you?"

He immediately activated his whole body’s superpower, a dazzling green light shining from his scythe arms.

"Phase Splitting Blade!"

Swish!

The two scythe arms slashed fiercely towards the impacting ice star.

No explosion, no boom, not even a thud sound.

Those two scythe arms, like green phantoms, directly pierced through the ice ball’s surface, acting directly inside the ice ball!

In this context, ’phase’ actually refers to the state or dimensional level of matter’s existence.

This [Phase Splitting Blade] allows the Star Mantis’s scythe arms to briefly detach from conventional physical space, achieving the effect of ’penetrating’ or ’ignoring physical obstacles’!

At this moment, the scythe arms directly bypassed the physical layer of the ice ball, directly attacking Liang Yuan wrapped inside!

Inside the ice ball, Liang Yuan also instantly sensed a crisis.

His heart skipped a beat, and without a word, he directly performed gene recombination, his body twisting as the next moment, he transformed into a shadow, hiding within the ice ball.

The Phase Splitting Blade sliced through the ball’s interior, yet the Star Mantis’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Wang Tian’an keenly sensed that this slash seemed to have hit nothing!

The blade’s friction against an object, he didn’t feel it!

"Not good!"

Although he didn’t know what was happening, Wang Tian’an instantly realized something was wrong.

Before he could react, the next moment, suddenly everything around him darkened.

Wang Tian’an instantly felt a sense of impending death crisis approaching.

Without a word, his whole body’s green light flickered violently!

Crash!

His body unexpectedly shattered into numerous varied-sized carapaces!

These carapaces trembled and vibrated, spreading rapidly in all directions!

However, even so, more than a third of the carapaces were engulfed by darkness, disappearing without a trace.

The remaining two-thirds of insects rapidly gathered kilometers away, re-condensing into a Star Mantis body.

Only this Star Mantis body was a circle smaller than before!

"What kind of ability is this? Isn’t he an Ice Attribute Superpower User?"

Wang Tian’an was both shocked and furious, staring intently at the pitch-black area in the distance.

That was where he had just escaped from!

Swish!

Beside the Star Mantis, a figure suddenly appeared.

Zhou Tang’s silhouette emerged, his expression also somewhat surprised, he said: "It’s Dark Attribute!"

"And it’s a shadow-related ability!"

"Damn, is this person a Dual-attribute Superpower User?" Wang Tian’an immediately asked, the mantis eyes flashed with a hint of apprehension.

Really just a bit more, and he would’ve been done for!

Zhou Tang said in a deep voice: "Ice Attribute, Dark Attribute dual abilities, and there’s actually such an expert, and they’ve even cultivated to the Genetic Reorganization Level."

"Even in our company, such experts are extremely rare."

"Looks like we’re at a disadvantage this time."

Wang Tian’an turned his head, angrily said: "Where the hell did you go just now? Why didn’t you make a move?"

Zhou Tang slightly shook his head: "There’s no need to make a move, the opponent has Dark Attribute Superpower, especially shadow-related abilities."

"Without a Light Attribute Superpower User cooperating, or other ways to counter Shadow Superpowers, we will undoubtedly lose this battle."

"You’re a Physique Ability User, I’m an Elemental Ability User, we have no counter against such Dark Attribute Superpower User, and their gene recombination progress is above yours and mine."

"This battle can’t be fought anymore, retreat."

"If the blue hills are preserved, there’s no worry about lack of wood to burn. Report to the company and have them send Ruan, the great beauty, over."

"Her Light Attribute Superpower is the key to our victory."

"Damn, I got a third of my insects swallowed by him, and we’re just gonna leave it like this?" Wang Tian’an asked angrily, feeling aggrieved.

Zhou Tang said, "I said, we’re not just leaving it, we’re waiting for the right opportunity."

"The intelligence work this time was poorly done by you!"

"So many ships at their base, we only have twenty, and they have experts of this caliber, yet you found none of this important information."

"Let’s go, we must reassess this Linjiang force."

"They could even take down a Mengya Company’s base; I don’t believe this group is some amateur squad."

With that, Zhou Tang’s figure flickered and swiftly left the scene, quickly returning to the spaceship.

Seeing this, Wang Tian’an could only glare hatefully in the direction of Liang Yuan.

His figure flashed, transformed into a human shape, and quickly dove into the spaceship.

Following that, all the ships of Kerry Technology seemed as if they received some command, swiftly turned direction, and quickly departed from Flying Manta Island.

In the sky, a large number of flying mutant beasts affected by the green liquid kept attacking Liang Yuan’s base.

Liang Yuan stepped out from the sky, frowning tightly.

"As expected, there’s still someone hidden nearby."

He had sensed Zhou Tang’s presence earlier.

He didn’t rashly chase after them because he was worried there were still ambushes.

This superpower user with a mantis form, it looks like it’s Wang Tian’an.

"The opponent can transform into countless beetles, instantly escaping my Dark Abyss Mouth area, and can regroup the body."

"This ability is somewhat like elementalization."

"Moreover, this person’s gene recombination progress has also reached 40%. It seems choosing to enhance my combat power first was the correct strategy."

"The senior members of Kerry Technology and Mengya Company both already have gene recombination strength at 40%."

"I wonder what the realm of their company’s leaders is."

Liang Yuan took a deep breath, feeling a sense of urgency.

He must accelerate his gene recombination progress.

50% gene recombination progress is not safe at all!

He still needs to improve!

"Mr. Liang, there are too many mutant beasts!"

"Mr. Liang, this green liquid is difficult to remove. Even after freezing, some of its scent leaks out."

Tu Long and Cheng Zhanpeng quickly flew to Liang Yuan’s side, anxiously speaking.

Shi Haizhu also spoke at this time, "Mr. Liang, our ships are being disrupted by those flying mutant beasts and can’t catch up to the enemy."

Liang Yuan frowned, waved his hand, and said, "Retreat back into the protective shield first."

"What about these mutant beasts? They are still attacking our protective shield."

Liang Yuan said, "First, go back and study what exactly this green liquid is to find a way to deal with it."

"As for the mutant beasts, don’t worry about them for now; our protective shield can still hold out."

"Understood."

The people at Yangshan retreated into the protective shield one after another.

Then Liang Yuan took the frozen green liquid sample and quickly went to the laboratory of the R&D department.

Dr. Du quickly took the sample, donned his gear, and began researching what this green liquid was.

"Mr. Liang, what do you think this stuff is? It can attract so many mutant beasts to rush at it like crazy," Tu Long asked impatiently from the side.

Liang Yuan shook his head slightly, "I don’t know either, but I estimate it’s specific to Kerry Technology."

"At least I haven’t found it with Mengya Company."

"How long will it take for Dr. Du and them to find a solution? If it’s not solved in a day, won’t those mutant beasts be hovering above us every day?" Cheng Zhanpeng couldn’t help asking.

At this time, Wang Ling’Er also came over with some people.

Since Liang Yuan saved them, they officially joined Yangshan Shelter.

Now Wang Ling’Er has become a mid-level leader of Yangshan Shelter, serving in the command center.

A few days ago, Wang Ling’Er successfully broke through to the Genetic Reorganization Realm using the Spiritual Power Gene Warning Device.

For this venture to Floating Island, she volunteered to come along and see.

In truth, Liang Yuan knew her inner thoughts.

Wang Ling’Er, having been the Island Lord of Spirit Jade Island, was once the leader of a faction, had a high degree of freedom, and had plenty of talent under her command.

Now joining Yangshan, she could only become a mid-level leader, and she’s a bit dissatisfied.

However, Linjiang City has been unified, and there are basically no major battles left for her to achieve merit.

In terms of technology and livelihood, these are not her strengths.

Although she can tame beasts, her direction isn’t about breeding, so a farm isn’t suitable for her.

After much thought, she found only the strategy department fitting for her.

After joining the strategy department, her work was just trivial patrol assignments, making it hard to stand out.

She could only devote herself entirely to cultivation, and as soon as she accumulated enough points, she’d head to the Spirit Gathering Tower.

Until she broke through to the genetic reorganization, she finally became one of the top combat powers in Yangshan.

The crisis on Floating Island now presents her with an opportunity.

That’s why she volunteered to come this time.

She said it was to gain experience, but in fact, she has ambitions.

She wants to make a mark, to see if she can stand out among others through this battle, and enter the Yangshan upper echelon.

So she would be worthy of her previous status as the Island Lord of Spirit Jade Island.

Liang Yuan is not opposed to her ambition; on the contrary, he supports it strongly.

If everyone in Yangshan had such ambition, the future would inevitably be filled with talent and experts.

At this moment, Wang Ling’Er, with a trace of seriousness on her face, approached Liang Yuan and said, "Mr. Liang, I have something to report."
