Chapter 99: Fighting for Humanity!

"Controller, the 8th Order Mutant Beast is in this direction, and the other two Controllers are still on their way here. We hope that you can hold them off for a while," said Wang Family Master.

The unfamiliar middle-aged man was actually the first Controller to arrive here. His face was as black as ink, and he wished he could slap the old man in front of him to death.

He had thought that even if he was the first to arrive, with the Controller from Wangchang City, they might have a chance to hold off the Mutant Beast for some time. However, when he arrived, he was told that the Controller from Wangchang City had already fallen.

"Damn it..."

The Controller cursed loudly. "Your Controller has been dead for over a week, and you didn't notify any of the Base Cities. You make me come here to help, do you want me to die?"

If it weren't for the severe punishment for traitors, he would have wanted to kill them all and surrender to the Mutant Beasts.

He didn't need a god-like teammate, but he couldn't stand having a teammate worse than a pig. Their behavior was even more headache-inducing than a pig-like teammate.

The Controllers are all gone, and you're still playing around!

Throughout the whole ordeal, the Controller never gave them any good looks. The ten family leaders had long been mentally prepared for this, and being weaker than him, they could only swallow their pride.

"My strength is only at mid-Seventh Order, and although I'm not the weakest Controller, I'm not that strong either. The Mutant Beast Lizard Dragon is only at the early stage of the 8th Order, and while its attack power is average, its defense is almost unbeatable. If I can delay it for some time, there might be a chance."

He was very clear about the difference between himself and the 8th Order Mutant Beast. To be honest, he really wanted to run away regardless of the outcome, but he didn't dare.

If he really gave up on Wangchang City, the Supreme Controller would personally come after him and put him on trial. The ultimate result would be to be sent to the front line to fight the Mutant Beasts all day, which was worse than death.

For a strong person like him, it would be a waste to execute him directly, which was why this rule was established. However, if the matter was too serious, execution was still possible.

The Controller was calculating how long he could delay the Mutant Beast. After thinking for a while, he realized that he could not delay it for more than a minute!

And that was with the Mutant Beast Lizard Dragon. If it were another 8th Order Mutant Beast, he would probably be killed instantly.

One minute was simply not enough!

He knew that the second Controller would take more than half an hour to arrive, which meant that he could only count on himself until then.

This was pointless. He might as well go home and sleep.

Wang Family Master saw the Controller's expression and knew that it was time to offer their help. "Controller, we have something in Wangchang City that might be able to help you."

"Oh, what is it?" The Controller asked casually.

"Hellfire Laser Cannon."

"What? Are you talking about the Hellfire Laser Cannon that destroyed an 8th Order Mutant Beast with one shot in the last war?" The Controller was overjoyed.

With that thing, an 8th Order Mutant Beast was nothing. He could just blast it with one shot.

"Cough, the Hellfire Laser Cannon is damaged and its power is not as great as before. At best, it can only cause some damage to an 8th Order Mutant Beast," Wang Family Master explained.

The Controller's happy expression disappeared almost immediately.

"Being able to damage an 8th Order Mutant Beast is still pretty good. At least I can hold on until the second Controller arrives. When the third Controller arrives, we will have a chance to hold on until the Supreme Controller comes," he said.

Everyone present looked up to the Supreme Controller with reverence. They knew that their relatively peaceful life was thanks to the Supreme Controller. Without them, humanity would have been wiped out by the Mutant Beasts.

Of course, some of humanity's weapons had played a role, and the Hellfire Laser Cannon was one of them.

Once, humans had used that thing to destroy an 8th Order Mutant Beast with one shot, shocking everyone.

Since then, no one had seen the Hellfire Laser Cannon, and it was unexpected that a Tier 3 Base City had obtained it.

In order to face the Eighth Order Mutant Beast, the humans needed a Supreme Controller to be present. The three Seventh Order Controllers alone wouldn't be able to hold out for long.

"For the sake of humanity!" suddenly shouted the Wang Family Master.

"That's right, for humanity," said the Controller, closing his eyes and waiting for the arrival of the Eighth Order Mutant Beast.

At this moment, the winter wind was bitter, but it couldn't shake their determination.

Time passed second by second, and finally, the Eighth Order Mutant Beast arrived.

Many people were seeing the Eighth Order Mutant Beast for the first time. Its enormous body and tough scales, along with the aura it emanated, were despair-inducing.

The Eighth Order Mutant Beast was one hundred meters tall, while their city walls were only fifty meters high, leaving a significant gap.

"Supreme Controller, we entrust Wangchang City to you. I'll have people charge up the Hell Laser Cannon," said someone.

"Mm," nodded the Controller, jumping directly off the city wall.

For ordinary people, jumping from such a height would be certain death, but for a Seventh Order Controller, a fifty-meter drop was nothing.

"Kill!"

The Controller drew a large sword, emitting a cold light. He swung the sword at the Eighth Order Mutant Beast's foot.

Ding!

A huge recoil force came from the sword, almost causing the Controller to lose his grip.

"As expected of the Lizard Dragon, the Eighth Order Mutant Beast. Its defense is too strong. Looks like there's only one thing to do," said the Controller, gritting his teeth.

Since he couldn't penetrate its defense, he would just have to charge at it. He didn't believe that the Lizard Dragon's eyes, nose, and defense were unbeatable.

The Controller ran on the Lizard Dragon's body, as if on level ground. This was the power of a Seventh Order Transcendent. Terrain had little effect on them, except for the fact that they couldn't fly. They were almost like superheroes.

The Lizard Dragon didn't seem to care about the Controller's presence on its body. To it, a single Seventh Order Transcendent was nothing. It only had eyes for the humans!

It knew that if it ate these humans, it would quickly advance to the mid-stage of the Eighth Order, and it wouldn't be the weakest among the Eighth Order Mutant Beasts anymore.

Besides, this time the humans had attacked it first, and it was just acting in self-defense.

Roar!

The Lizard Dragon howled at the sky, and the huge sound wave ruptured the eardrums of some Transcendents on the city wall who were below the Third Order, rendering them unable to fight.

Transcendents of the Third Order and above felt dizzy and unstable.

Before the fight even began, the humans had suffered heavy losses.
