The spaceship piloted by a Four-Armed Alien descended to a hundred meters above the ruined city of Bai Guishu Mansion within minutes.
"Tatakao people. I have arrived," the Four-Armed Alien announced, activating the spotlight function on the spaceship.
A powerful beam of light illuminated an area of several thousand square meters below.
Unlucky Tatakao people were directly exposed under the light.
"Hahaha, die."
The Four-Armed Alien adjusted the explosive power of the energy cannon to a low setting and pressed the button.
An energy cannon from the spaceship descended.
"Bang"
"Bang"
"..."
Several Tatakao people exposed under the light were directly killed.
Upon seeing this, Tatakao people in other areas of Bai Guishu Mansion began to evacuate.
"A Four-Armed Alien spaceship has appeared."
"Run!"
"Escape!"
The Tatakao people fled in all directions.
Laughter echoed from inside the spaceship, "Hahaha. You Tatakao people, run. Run. This hunt has begun."
The Four-Armed Alien controlled the spaceship to move towards a detected signal.
Coincidentally, this direction was where Su Han and his group had hidden their vehicles.
The Four-Armed Alien's spaceship approached from a distance, its spotlight scanning around. The external cameras spotted the spaceship from afar.
Chu Shi reported, "That spaceship is heading towards us. The distance is ten kilometers. It will reach us in ten minutes."
Su Han asked, "Why is it coming here?"
Chu Shi replied, "Most likely, our equipment's signal has been locked onto by that spaceship. Even with our technology, we can pinpoint the location of radio wave transmissions."
Su Han stated, "Unfortunate. Everyone, prepare for battle."
Xiao Yan immediately activated the hover vehicles and moved them to the hiding spot, which was beneath some ruins. If a battle occurred, the collapsing debris above would crush the entire vehicle.
"I'll control the heavy machine gun," Ye Fan volunteered.
Lin Dong, not wanting to miss out, quickly chimed in, "I'll control it."
Xiao Yan also joined, "Let me control it."
Su Han intervened, "Stop arguing. Ye Fan, you will control the heavy machine gun."
Lin Dong said with a hint of resignation, "Then I'll have to use the machine gun against the spaceship overhead? Can a machine gun at a hundred meters hit anything?"
Su Han reassured him, "Don't worry, we have rocket launchers. Lin Dong, go get the rocket launchers and prepare to fire."
"We have rocket launchers? How come I didn't know?" Lin Dong asked.
Su Han explained, "I thought of it on the spot. They are in the hidden compartment."
Lin Dong opened the hidden compartment in the hover vehicle's trunk and found a rocket launcher and several rockets. The rockets were inscribed with magic circles.
"No wonder I didn't see them when I was handling the machine gun. They were under the hidden compartment."
Lin Dong retrieved the rocket launcher set and, along with Ye Fan, climbed out of the car window onto the roof.
Su Han used the camera to observe the distant spaceship.
The spaceship continued its flight, intermittently firing its energy cannon.
"Bang"
"Bang"
"..."
The spaceship flew at a constant speed.
Suddenly, the spaceship altered its course, veering off to the side.
"The spaceship has deviated from its course. Let's see what's happening," Su Han instructed.
Chu Shi glanced at the footage from all the cameras and switched to one particular feed.
The feed showed the spaceship pursuing a Tatakao person, firing its energy cannon. However, each shot was dodged by the fleeing Tatakao person, and the resulting shrapnel did not hit them.
Zi Han and Zhou Xiaoyue, witnessing this, were astonished.
"That Tatakao person's luck is incredible! So many explosions, and none hit them."
"The spaceship's aiming shouldn't be this bad. It must be pure luck for that Tatakao person."
At this moment, Su Han, seeing the person, felt a flash of inspiration. He asked, "Is that Tatakao person around sixteen years old?"
Chu Shi nodded, "That's correct."
...
Meanwhile, aboard the spaceship, the Four-Armed Alien was furious.
"Damn it, what's going on? I aimed precisely, yet it misses!"
The enraged Four-Armed Alien slammed its four hands against the unbuttoned metal control panel, as if to vent its anger.
The Four-Armed Alien had fired the energy cannon multiple times just now. However, after each shot, the Tatakao person on the ground altered their movement trajectory. The energy cannonballs were not at the speed of light, and within that short distance, they could still be dodged. Previously, this was only theoretical; now, theory had become reality.
While the Four-Armed Alien raged, the fleeing Tatakao person on the ground was filled with fear.
The fleeing Tatakao person was a young individual whose hiding place had run out of supplies. Thus, they were forced to venture out in search of more. Shortly after reaching the surface, the spaceship descended. They immediately began to flee, but unfortunately, while crossing a street, they were spotted by the spaceship's spotlight. The spaceship then pursued them, firing its energy cannon. The surrounding ruins were too dense to offer any cover, forcing the Tatakao person to run desperately in the street.
This Tatakao person was consumed by despair. They couldn't understand why the spaceship overhead was toying with them.
Indeed, they believed the spaceship was toying with them. After all, other Tatakao people were killed with a single energy cannon shot. But the shots aimed at them landed nearby, herding them like a street rat. It felt like a deliberate taunt.
After firing a few more shots, the Four-Armed Alien in the spaceship could no longer contain its rage. "Damn it, this is unbearable. The damned Tatakao person. I'll adjust the energy cannon to its maximum power setting!"
The Four-Armed Alien twisted the dial, increasing the energy cannon's power to its maximum.
As the power was adjusted, the energy cannon barrel below the spaceship enlarged.
The Tatakao person below happened to look up and saw the light from the cannon barrel intensifying. They had learned from other Tatakao people that an expanding light at the cannon's muzzle indicated an increase in its power.
It's over. The power is increased, and I'm going to die! Why is this happening? I'm going to die without even knowing who my parents are.
At this moment, the young Tatakao person felt true despair. While they could survive nearby explosions from the low-power energy cannon, a high-power blast nearby would kill them even from the shockwave alone.
The spaceship's enlarged cannon barrel began to glow, and a projectile twenty times larger than before descended.
The Tatakao person, running below, looked up in despair at the approaching projectile...
