Chapter 623 The Unbreakable Shield Field
Standing on the edge of the preparation platform, Mo Chen had a clear view of the battle situation on the rooftop battlefield.
The once densely packed horde of corpses is now reduced to charred remains scattered across the rooftops.
Kretz's grenade launcher was still emitting wisps of smoke. He was panting heavily, having consumed a lot of plant spirit energy, and his arm was trembling slightly from the violent recoil.
But his green eyes were brighter than ever before. Looking at the area he had cleared with a single grenade, Kretz's lips curled into a smile tinged with the smell of gunpowder.
Mira's performance amazed Mo Chen. Under the control of this little princess of starlight, the five floating cannons moved freely on the rooftop battlefield like living golden elves.
Wherever the particle beam passed, low-level zombies of all kinds were easily destroyed as if they were made of paper.
Mo Chen's gaze fell on the edge of the roof ridge. Although the wormholes had shrunk somewhat, they had not completely disappeared.
The next wave of low-level zombies is about to arrive through the wormhole, and they must be prepared to engage them.
"Kretz, place the summoned creature in the fifth column to further strengthen the defensive line's firepower!"
"Mira, take a short rest and keep the vehicle in its current state."
"clear."
Upon receiving the order, the two plant warriors quickly responded.
Kretz channeled his plant-based spiritual energy, shaping a grenade, loading it into the launcher, lifting it up, and adjusting the angle for the next launch.
One by one, cabbage shooters sprouted from the flowerpots, swaying the cabbages in the baskets above their heads, looking adorable.
Mira waved her hand, and the five floating cannons flew back behind her like weary birds returning to their nests, transforming back into a star ring that revolved around its master.
Although the light from the cannon muzzle had dimmed, it could unleash terrifying firepower again at any moment.
Mo Chen's gaze passed over the summoned creatures of the plant spirit warriors and landed on the forefront of the defensive line.
Having withstood a full wave of enemy attacks, the five nuts standing upright in the flowerpot showed obvious signs of being gnawed on.
Two of the nuts had severely damaged shells and needed to be replaced or repaired promptly.
While pondering a solution, Mo Chen looked down at the screen of his personal terminal.
----------
Mira, a Tier 3 Star Fruit Plant Spirit, requires 125 points of sunlight energy to summon during battle.
Amber, an eighth-tier pumpkin protective shield plant spirit, is ready to be summoned. It requires 75 points of sunlight energy.
----------
She glanced discreetly at Amber beside her. The head maid, who was extremely protective, was still standing straight with her hands crossed in front of her lower abdomen.
But beneath that lowered gaze and composed demeanor lay a tension that threatened to rage.
After all, Amber was employed by the Etherda family as a top bodyguard specifically responsible for protecting Mira.
Mira has been in the battle for quite some time now, it's time to let Amber join the fray to ensure that the former is always within the latter's protective range.
[A pumpkin-shaped protective shield plant spirit with eighth-tier plant spirit power... without a doubt, it's a high-end combat force that courtyard #5905 desperately needs!]
Silently sighing to himself, Mo Chen didn't hesitate and immediately issued a new order:
"Amber, enter the field! Place the summon on the nuts in the seventh row to protect your other comrades!"
"Yes, sir."
Amber bowed slightly, then slowly walked down the platform and onto the brick and tile floor of the rooftop battlefield.
She took the necessary sunlight energy from Eve, channeled her plant energy to condense five cards, and fired them all at the five nuts at the forefront of the defense.
The orange light cascaded down, enveloping the nuts inside.
As the light faded, five brand-new pumpkin protective shields appeared before the group of enemies.
They have a hard outer shell that seems to shimmer with metallic luster, making them even stronger than steel forged through countless hammerings.
A hideous ghost face suddenly appeared, coldly staring at the horde of corpses ahead.
A huge gap opened up in the mouth area, revealing layers upon layers of sharp, jagged teeth.
Just as a buckethead zombie extended its claws and touched the pumpkin shield outside the nut.
Suddenly, blue ghost fire ignited from the hollowed-out eyes of the latter, startling the barrel zombie that was about to devour it.
Startled, it unconsciously waved its paws, inadvertently reaching towards the gap in the pumpkin's protective cover.
A violent cutting sound rang out, and the barrel zombie's arms were severed and shredded, exploding into a spray of blood and flesh.
The unfortunate bucket zombie let out a painful howl and then slammed its head, topped with a bucket helmet, heavily against the pumpkin shield.
The metal helmet collided with the hard outer shell, producing a dull thud.
The shock made the barrel zombie see stars and stagger backward.
On the other hand, the pumpkin protective cover was completely free of scratches.
Within those empty eye sockets, the blue ghost flames flickered even more fiercely, as if silently mocking the enemy's overestimation of his own abilities.
Amber had already arrived beside Mira, discreetly shielding her young mistress behind her.
She reached out, gently removed a badge from her chest, placed it in her palm, and with a light tap, a portable shield force field generator instantly appeared in Amber's hand.
The plant spirit power was released and injected into the generator. Soon, an orange shield field spread outward from Amber, enveloping the plant spirit warriors and their summoned creatures.
The shield field is semi-transparent and radiates light, so it does not significantly affect visibility.
The low-level zombies that were walking towards them didn't notice the shield field at all. Unaware of its existence, they continued to move forward and were then stopped by the invisible barrier.
After their heads were slammed several times, some of the lower-level zombies finally reacted and began scratching and biting at the shield field.
Fangs and claws slashed across the translucent orange light screen with a piercing sizzle, leaving only fleeting ripples in their wake.
But many more low-level zombies continued to relentlessly ram the barrier, trying to break through the shield field.
Mo Chen subconsciously looked at Amber, the head maid who remained standing steadily in place, maintaining the normal operation of the generator in her hand.
A group of low-level zombies who can't even skillfully utilize their zombie spirit power are simply unable to inflict effective damage on the shield field.
They could only slowly, at a snail's pace, consume the surging plant spiritual power within Amber's body, a power comparable to a river.
In this situation, the generator should have issued an overload alarm, but Amber still seemed to be handling it with ease.
Her gaze was calm yet sharp, constantly monitoring every impact on the shield field, making timely adjustments to ensure there were no weak points.
In the entire War Courtyard, there was no better defender than Amber.
Amber's arrival undoubtedly boosted the morale of the courtyard side significantly, and under her protection, the defense line of courtyard number 5905 was virtually impregnable.
The plant warriors also temporarily ceased their attacks, using this rare moment of leisure to rest and recuperate.
After a while, the rooftop was crowded with low-level zombies that had been blocked by the shield field.
When the cramped space was completely filled and no more low-level zombies emerged from the wormhole, Mo Chen knew that the time to de-stress was approaching.
