Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 584 Wu Prayer
In front of the passage leading to the underground entrance of the building, Guan Shangjing was checking the specific casualties.

Previously, Deputy Director Song Zicheng was responsible for leading the team to capture the split body, but he failed to come back in the end and was probably dead outside.

This caused him to lose a valuable assistant.

Before the war, he was originally accompanied by the remaining twelve captains, but now more than half of them have died. Now there are only five people left, and the total number of members under them does not exceed fifty.

There are still about twenty elite garrison troops surrounding him, and these people are the last defense force of the company building.

Although there may still be many armed members responsible for counterattack in the building, they are almost unable to resist the attack of biological combat weapons.

Judging from the sounds coming from the boundary, people are constantly being killed and injured, and the signs of various departments of the company marked on the boundary are dimming every few moments, which means that those places have been lost, and this trend is spreading at a very fast speed. Obviously, the remaining people will not be able to hold on for much longer.

There is still a 30-man garrison at the board of directors' place that is intact and has decent combat effectiveness, but they are responsible for protecting the directors and it is impossible for them to be mobilized.

Just as he was trying to adjust his tactics and figure out how to delay the situation for a longer period of time, the voice of Director Yingwei rang out from the world:
"Manager Guan Shang, how long can you hold on?"

Guan Shangjing answered truthfully: "Director Yingwei, even if the forces in my hands abandon the key positions and retreat, they can only support us for half an hour at most.

If those people join the battle... I'm not sure how long we can last, maybe only a few minutes."

"I understand. Director Guan Shang, the board of directors requires you to keep those people out at all costs. Ferris Wheel Company will not fall today."

Guan Shangjing's heart moved. He roughly realized what the company wanted to do. He suddenly felt a little hopeful and said in a serious tone, "I understand!"

At this moment, in a shaft-like space underground in the Ferris Wheel Company, there existed a gigantic creature. Most of its body was covered by a curtain painted with patterns of the Gaotian Religion. Only from the exposed limbs could one see that its body was bronze in color, and there was a faint fluorescent light flashing all over its body, which seemed to brighten and dim with its breathing.

There are neatly arranged interfaces throughout its body, which are connected to the life vessels extending from the walls of the shaft and other places.

And it can be seen that at this moment, there is mist spraying down from above, and some kind of green-yellow liquid is entering its body through the blood vessels. This is the high-energy nutrient agent stored by the Ferris Wheel Company being injected into its body.

With the continuous transportation, the shriveled tentacles that were originally hanging on the ground are becoming fuller, and the green fluorescence on their bodies is becoming brighter and brighter. After ten minutes or so, the tentacle suddenly swung upwards, hooked around the climbing rod above the shaft, and then pulled the body slowly upwards.

Inside the building, the combat creatures from the three departments had already controlled most of the Ferris Wheel Building and had found the underground entrance. They were now attacking there fiercely, while Guan Shangjing and his men were desperately resisting there.

Xu Chan was standing in the hall, watching the situation inside through the information field. If he had not been concerned about the narrow terrain there and the possibility that the other party had buried explosives, he would never have allowed them to hold out for so long.

But if the other side can use it, they can use it too. After biological weapons equipped with self-explosive explosives rushed forward one after another, the casualties on the other side gradually increased. They could only use the curved terrain to retreat and resist, but it was clear that they could not hold on for much longer.

The modified creatures that are released are easy to breed and have no intelligence. They only need to know one instruction, which is to carry explosives. People who die in battle need to be compensated, but the modified creatures do not need this, so it does not matter how many of them die.

After watching the attack for about twenty minutes, he saw that the other party had retreated to an underground hall and had apparently reached a key position.

Just when he was about to slow down and take over the place in one go, he suddenly felt the ground shake violently, and then again soon after.

He immediately became alert and said through the interface: "Attention, abnormal situation, everyone, retreat!"

This sentence is both a reminder to the teammates present and an order to the troops in the rear.

The reaction forces were well prepared and retreated immediately.

But even though the movement was fast, it still seemed a little slow. At the bottom of the building, a powerful spiritual force suddenly burst out.

This spiritual power spread around like a substance, instantly brushing through their bodies, and then rushing away to a farther place.

The five people present had already made preparations, but even so, except for Xu Chan, the others couldn't help but shake their bodies, and their heads felt dizzy for a moment, and they took several steps back before they could stand firm.

At this moment, the troops closest to the Ferris wheel building were two kilometers away. However, even so, a large group of people in front of them lost consciousness in an instant and fell down one after another like dominoes.

Not to mention the biological weapons, which were almost all cleared out within this range, and the flying insects in the sky fell like rain, soon forming a thick layer on the ground.

Xu Chan's face was serious at the moment. He felt the ground continue to shake. It seemed that something was coming up from below at a very fast speed. So he repeated, "Everyone, get ready."

Shortly after he said this, tiny cracks suddenly appeared in the middle of the hall, where the Ferris wheel was marked. Then there was a loud bang, and brick and stone fragments exploded outward.

An octagonal deep well was exposed at the original location. It was pitch black at the bottom and it was unclear where it led to. A green tentacle like a long vine was seen swinging there, and finally fell down with a clang, and the hard hook on it suddenly touched the hard ground.

Immediately afterwards, one could hear a rustling sound of friction and some kind of low hissing sound coming from this bottomless passage that was like a well.

The sound was getting closer and closer. After just over half a minute, a huge monster crawled out from inside and then landed on the ground intact.

This is a thing that looks like a standing crustacean insect, about ten meters tall, with a streamlined body and a slightly pointed tail.

Its head and shoulders are covered with a white exoskeleton shaped like a samurai helmet from old times. A pair of tentacles several meters long extend from the top of its head. These tentacles appear to be flexible and retractable, with flower-shaped ends.

The head is slightly flat, with sharp edges, and it feels like it can be turned flexibly and at will. From the face to the chest area, there are rows of insect-like compound eyes, which are now emitting a faint green light.

Its broad shoulders stretched out, and its two long, whip-like forelimbs hung down to the ground. It had relied on these two forelimbs to climb up just now.

Its waist is slightly narrow, connecting two pairs of strong feet in front and behind, with some tentacles on both sides to assist balance and perception. Each leg has multiple joints, and the end of the foot is thick, with claws and attachment structures, and a slender exoskeleton as auxiliary support, which can obviously adapt to various terrains.

The active consciousness of the Ferris Wheel Company, Wu Qi.

Xu Chan looked up and stared at the thing. The four people behind him couldn't help but step back a few steps, their faces full of vigilance. After all, this was an instinctive defensive psychology, and they couldn't just ignore this behemoth.

Xu Chan stood firmly in place, and a faint light flickered on his fist.

Although his size was insignificant compared to this thing, he could clearly feel that this active consciousness might be very strong, but it did not exceed their current level.

This is because this active consciousness is too young, having been cultivated for only ten years, perhaps longer, but never more than fifteen years.

At the same time, active consciousness requires a huge amount of energy and special substances to nourish. The Ferris Wheel Company does not have the strength and channels to do so, but if it can join the consortium, these will not be a problem.

Therefore, if we give this company some time, it can really push the active consciousness to a higher level. Although it is a little difficult to deal with now, it is not impossible to deal with. It may even be the best time to deal with it.

At this moment, he said the same words for the third time: "Everyone, get ready!"

Inside the Defense Ministry's Combat Command Center, after experiencing the impact just now, the light curtain dimmed for a long time, but now it finally came back to life, and the scenes outside and inside the Ferris Wheel Building could be seen at the moment.

But even so, the images presented were intermittent, as if they were strongly disturbed by something.

Commissioner Liang first glanced at the large number of soldiers who had fallen around the building, and then looked at the ferocious-looking Wu Qi with a solemn expression.

The huge size naturally brings huge spiritual power, and the field information is usually operated by active consciousness. Its information transmission can often cover a range of tens of kilometers, so the impact of this spiritual power is actually not exaggerated.

However, except for active conscious beings like Hongfu who tend to be combat-oriented, other active conscious beings must come outside if they want to demonstrate their combat effectiveness.

This is the real problem they need to solve. Only by solving it can they completely destroy the Ferris Wheel Company.

Although the liaison officers and staff present had heard of active conscious beings before and often dealt with them, they had never actually seen one. After seeing its true appearance, they were speechless for a moment, and could not help but be shocked by the strange shape and huge size of this organism.

At this time, the sentry tower suddenly spoke: "Specialist, there is an external encrypted channel to search."

After hearing this, Commissioner Liang was a little surprised and immediately said, "Bring it in."

After the channel was connected, he said in a deep voice: "I am Liang Guanghai."

After listening to what the other party said for a while, he became serious and asked, "Are you sure?"

After a while, he responded, "Thank you for your assistance. I understand. I will take a look at your proposed schedule later. Our goals are the same."
