With a cold, twirling motion, he sliced ​​open the Gale Eagle's soft belly, spilling its blood onto his own mech to mask its original scent.

A familiar, pungent stench assaulted his nostrils, causing Leng Ran to frown uncomfortably. Having finally escaped the zombie hordes of the post-apocalyptic world and arrived in interstellar space, he found himself still unable to escape this nauseating odor.

Draping themselves in blood-soaked cloth to mask the smell is a common way for civilians in the apocalypse to avoid mindless zombies, but it's not enough for intelligent beasts.

He glanced at the Gale Eagle with cold disdain, but his hands moved quickly, peeling off the Gale Eagle's outer feathers along with a layer of skin and flesh, and putting them on the hummingbird, whose wings had already spread, without hesitation.

By slipping hummingbird feathers inside the wings of a Gale Eagle, covering the mecha's head with bird head fur, and tucking all four limbs under the broad fur of the Gale Eagle, a fresh "Gale Bird" is complete.

Looking at the strangely shaped Gale Eagle in his mental vision, Zhao Yuheng raised an eyebrow: "This level of proficiency, it seems this isn't the first time you've done this... Would you call this a 'bird in eagle's skin'?"

"No, please call me 'the wolf in sheep's clothing'." Leng Ran had gradually gotten used to the stench in the cockpit. He touched the two bomb boxes strapped to his waist with his right hand, looked up at the dark, overwhelming army of alien beasts in the sky, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

"Now, the wolf is going to start hunting the lead sheep."

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Ran's mental power immediately locked onto the location of the Void Beast. The hummingbird began to experimentally flap its wings, mimicking the flight posture of the Gale Eagle as it soared into the sky.

Upon seeing Leng Ran's hummingbird take off, Zhao Yuheng forcibly mobilized his barely recovered mental energy, using mental energy threads to infiltrate the army of alien beasts and scout out the enemy situation for Leng Ran.

"Beware of a group of Flamebirds at the nine o'clock position. Do not approach them," Zhao Yuheng warned. "Because of their constant burning nature, they will ignite any creature that gets close to them, and all flying beasts will avoid them."

Leng Ran glanced at the flock of fiery birds that were breathing fire, then quietly retreated a bit, obediently blending into the ordinary flying beasts and approaching the location of the Void Beast without making a sound.

Zhao Yuheng: "Keep up the pace, there are still 800 meters left."

These low-level alien beasts, acting as cannon fodder in the front line, charged recklessly towards the mech formation under the command of the high-level alien beasts, paying no attention to the strangely shaped Gale Eagle. However, the high-level alien beasts stationed at the rear still noticed Leng Ran's presence.

A Rank A support-type alien beast, a singing oriole, which was directing operations from the rear, inadvertently caught sight of Leng Ran and stopped singing. Seeing its subordinate, who should have crashed, suddenly fully recovered, it became suspicious. It flew through numerous "obstacles" to Leng Ran and cried out to her, seemingly conveying some command.

Leng Ran in the cockpit: "Zhao Yuheng, translate for me."

Zhao Yuheng remained silent: "...Why do you think I speak gibberish?"

He gave a cold, light laugh: "Just kidding."

Taking advantage of its size, it coldly spread its wings and slapped the singing oriole with lightning speed, sending the unsuspecting support-type beast flying.

After tumbling a few times in the air, the songbird "successfully" landed among the blazing birds, and by sheer coincidence, it landed on the wing of one of the blazing birds, instantly igniting its beautiful feathers and turning it to ashes.

The songbird, dazed and confused from being slapped, was reduced to a charred piece and fell helplessly from the sky.

The flying beasts commanded by the singing oriole suddenly panicked, no longer fighting desperately as cannon fodder but scattering in all directions. The experienced veteran soldiers of the Nirvana Mech Regiment immediately seized the opportunity and annihilated many of the beasts with a few shots.

In the Nirvana Mech Regiment's voice channel, Xia Tianhua exclaimed in surprise, "Why did they suddenly panic? Is their commander dead? We haven't even reached the rear yet!"

Wei Shenghuang also found it unbelievable: "Xiao Wei, what's going on?"

Mu Yingwei, who was observing the situation inside the base, was silent for a few seconds: "If I'm not mistaken, it seems... a B-level Gale Eagle swatted an A-level commander into a flock of Blazing Birds."

The voice channel fell into an eerie silence.

Xia Tianhua exclaimed in shock, "This is unbelievable! There really are low-level alien beasts that can resist the commands and control of high-level alien beasts?"

Although Wei Shenghuang was also curious about this, there were more important things to do right now: "Xiao Wei, keep a close eye on things. We need to hurry up and break through the defenses!"

Mu Yingwei: "Received."

So he opened his mental vision and observed the arrogant B-class Gale Eagle with a complicated expression.

While the other alien beasts rushed towards the mechs, why did this Gale Eagle go against the grain and fly leisurely backward?

Under Mu Yingwei's watchful eye, as the Gale Eagle brushed past an A-level Commander Poison Blue Magpie, it suddenly extended a leg belonging to the mecha and kicked the unfortunate commander away, sending it flying precisely into the flock of Blazing Birds.

The other party moved very quickly, the whole process took only a fraction of a second, without alerting the other beasts around. The command beast fell silently.

"Holy crap..." A crack appeared on Mu Yingwei's expression, and his previously calm voice instantly rose, "Commander, that's not some Gale Eagle, it's one of our own, just disguised as a Gale Eagle! He just killed another A-rank Poison Blue Magpie!"

"What?!" Xia Tianhua grinned. "Everyone from Nirvana is with me. Which of our 'own people' did this?"

“I’m guessing it’s a Hummingbird…” Mu Yingwei suddenly stopped. “Wait a minute, isn’t Mo Li flying a Hummingbird? Where is he now? Hasn’t he returned to base?”

The communications officer immediately checked the mech's descent status: "We have not yet received a landing record for Hummingbird 309."

"Is it really Mo Li?" Xia Tianhua's eyes widened. "This kid is too reckless!"

"Based on my understanding of Mo Li, he must have his reasons for doing this." Wei Shenghuang looked in Leng Ran's direction. "Just trust him."

Leng Ran made several covert attacks on the way to the Void Beasts, knocking some high-level commanders with little combat power into the Fiery Birds. With the successive losses of the commander beasts, the beasts fighting in the front line were forced to retreat steadily, and the speed at which the Nirvana Mech Regiment broke through the defense line also increased significantly.

A minute later, Leng Ran quietly appeared directly above the Void Beast's wide wingspan. Looking down at the exquisite energy display before him, Leng Ran's right hand reached for the two boxes of miniature bombs at his waist. He pressed the switch, and countless tiny bombs instantly rained down, attaching themselves to the Void Beast's left wing.

Leng Ran quickly raised the power level and then pressed the start switch without hesitation.

She smiled and said, "Here's a gift for you, you're welcome."

Finally sensing the anomaly, the Void Beast narrowed its eyes, and the two boxes of micro-bombs were detonated simultaneously. A dazzling light and a deafening explosion intertwined, and a terrifying energy spread across its wing membrane. The immense impact caused the Void Beast to let out an angry roar, blasting away the surrounding beasts and sending sprays of blood flying.

On the other side, although Leng Ran managed to gain altitude in time, he still couldn't completely escape the blast radius and was blown into the sky by the aftershocks.

Leng Ran felt as if a huge rock had struck her chest, and a sharp pain instantly swept through her body, making it almost impossible for her to breathe. A mouthful of blood rushed to her throat, and the taste of rust filled her mouth. Leng Ran frowned and forcefully swallowed the blood back down.

Zhao Yuheng quickened his pace: "Hold on, break through towards six o'clock, Nirvana is there!"

Facing the exploding Void Beast, Xia Tianhua laughed and said, "I knew this kid was going to cause trouble. I didn't expect him to be such a help!"

Wei Shenghuang immediately drew her sword and headed towards the direction where Leng Ran was breaking through: "Let's go and meet him!"

Xia Tianhua: "Let's go!"

Leng Ran's Gale Eagle cloak was also stained with sparks and began to burn. She endured the pain, quickly removed the burning disguise, gripped her two laser guns tightly, and gritted her teeth to break out of the monsters' encirclement.

Despite the intense pain in her body, her hand gripping the gun remained steadfast, and she focused intently as she shot down the strange beasts blocking her path.

The intense light from the explosion slowly dissipated, revealing the Void Beast once more.

Looking back coldly, although the energy circuit hadn't been completely severed, the once dazzling aurora-like skin had dimmed considerably. In the instant of the explosion, the Void Beast had managed to protect itself with its accumulated cosmic energy, thus avoiding serious injury, but the energy it had previously stored up was almost entirely depleted.

In addition, the command beasts near the Void Beasts also suffered heavy losses. The low-level beasts, having lost their commanders, were in chaos and could no longer stop the warriors whose morale was high. This allowed the Nirvana people to break through the defenses and reach the Void Beasts.

Leng Ran successfully met with Nirvana and felt an unprecedented sense of peace as she looked at the army that came to meet her.

"Mo Li, well done!" Wei Shenghuang patted Leng Ran's shoulder lightly. "Go and recover from your injuries. Leave the rest to us!"
