"What is that?"
The expression of the elite squad leader, who was currently on the offensive, suddenly turned into a scowl. Someone had taken advantage of the current chaos to clear the final boss room!
What made his expression so unsightly wasn't just this revelation, but mainly the fact that there was actually another force on The Island that he knew nothing about.
He felt a faint sense of unease that wouldn't disappear.
"Speed up and take this place down as quickly as possible!" He began to urge his teammate frantically.
What followed was an even more frenzied assault on the Alliance.
They had to take the Alliance's base as quickly as possible, and then retreat to deal with the next enemy before they arrived. With a group of second-generation max-level dinosaurs, he wasn't particularly afraid of any threat, though.
By this time, the battlefield had reached a new peak of intensity.
The Alliance's side had deployed almost every dinosaur pack still capable of fighting, and players were also personally stepping onto the field to control them in combat.
Time passed slowly as the battle raged.
As the defensive line was slowly eroded through the sustained pressure, the first line of defense was finally breached, and the situation took a sudden turn for the worse.
Several Tyrannosaurus Rexes at the front broke through the defense line and charged into the inner perimeter. A few players were caught off guard and immediately taken out in the chaos.
[Super Nanny was eliminated!]
To protect Lake, Super Nanny had sacrificed himself by blocking the attack. Looking at the eliminated Super Nanny, Lake's face was filled with grief.
However, he still held back his tears and quickly retreated to the second line of defense with the remaining players.
More and more players were being eliminated as the line of defense collapsed.
[Rowan was eliminated!]
This consistently steady Alliance leader, in order to cover his teammates' retreat, was also caught and killed by two Tyrannosaurus Rexes.
This battle was fought from night until day, and from day until night.
Both sides had now put forth their full strength in desperation.
The players of the elite squad, who were originally full of confidence in their victory, couldn't help but have unsightly expressions now. It was too hard to crack through the stubborn defense.
However, as they continued their relentless assault, the final line of defense was about to be breached. The last hope of the Alliance players was about to be extinguished completely.
Just at this moment, earth-shattering roars echoed from the distance.
The battle froze for a moment. All players still fighting subconsciously stopped their movements, and the Alliance players gazed into the distance in disbelief.
Was there another faction on The Island they didn't know about?
"Are these reinforcements?"
"Who exactly is it?"
Above the distant horizon, a Tek Tyrannosaurus Rex was the first to show its head over the ridge. Its mechanical body stepped into the battlefield with heavy strides and let out a roar that shook the air.
Immediately after, a group of unusual dinosaurs appeared behind it in formation.
[Megalosaurus]
Since it was night, the Megalosauruses were even fiercer than usual.
This new force instantly joined the battlefield, and the leader of the elite players couldn't help but change his expression with concern. The thing he worried about most had happened, and this mysterious force had also joined the battlefield!
He hurriedly picked up his spyglass to check their strength and numbers.
"Eh!" But after he saw the situation clearly, his heart, which had just been worried, immediately relaxed with relief.
"Hmph, you want to help them with such a meager force?"
This squad's dinosaur pack wasn't very large in size, so he immediately ordered his troops to split and intercept them. The advantage is still mine, he thought confidently.
But in the next second, the scene before him made him freeze on the spot. He even subconsciously rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
He saw two figures suddenly rise from the supporting dinosaur group and fly directly into the sky above.
It completely confused him. He wasn't seeing things; they were actually flying through the air.
The thrusters behind the armor sprayed pale blue flames while carrying the two people as they nimbly traversed the night sky.
Boshita and Jose, wearing Tek armor, arrived to save the day at the critical moment.
They didn't choose to go head-to-head with the dinosaur packs in direct combat. Instead, they used the flexible mobility of the Tek armor's flight to aim directly at the elite squad players who were currently riding the dinosaurs.
"Not good, they're coming for us!" someone shouted in alarm.
But by the time they reacted, it was already too late to respond.
The two were already too close.
Relying on their skills and the flexible mobility of the Tek armor, they directly attacked the commanders, aiming for their heads. The Tyrannosaurus Rex rider, still on the dinosaur's back, was instantly closed in upon by Boshita.
Using both sword and gun in practiced coordination, smooth teamwork took them out directly. The first, then the second. The players of the squad, who weren't many to begin with, instantly panicked at their losses.
Some stopped riding their dinosaurs and jumped off their backs while planning to run away on foot. This kind of fighting style was simply too overwhelming to counter.
In the distance, the Alliance players who were still struggling to resist also noticed the changes in the enemy's rear lines. Looking at those two figures traversing the night sky and seeing the elite players falling one after another, the light of hope instantly reignited in their eyes.
"It's reinforcements! Charge forward!"
The dinosaur packs, having lost their commanders, instantly became directionless without orders. Roaring with renewed determination, the remaining players launched a counterattack. The long-suppressed grief, indignation, and despair all turned into the power of a charge at this moment.
The situation on the battlefield underwent a dramatic reversal.
"Can't you move a bit faster? You're so slow!" Boshita taunted.
"None of your fuckin business! Don't you dare steal my kills!" Jose shot back.
Boshita and Jose were bickering while fighting and competing for kills, as true rivals do. At this time, the two had already surrounded the opponent's leader in a coordinated pincer.
The opponent now showed a look of unwillingness and began to personally step forward to tangle with the two attackers. He wasn't a pushover in melee combat after all.
Unfortunately, he stood no chance against the coordinated and smooth teamwork of two students from the Imperial Swordsmanship Academy, and he quickly died with regret.
Once the leader died, the remaining elite players completely lost their morale. They either died in battle or fled, and no one dared to resist anymore.
The max-level dinosaur packs, having lost their command, were leaderless and disorganized. Under the attacks of many players, they were gradually defeated and killed one by one.
The roars on the battlefield gradually subsided and left only heavy panting and the low whimpers of injured dinosaurs.
"We won!" Someone said it, though it was unclear who spoke first!
These words were like a beam of light piercing through the oppression of the past few days.
After a brief silence, someone finally let out a hoarse cheer of victory. Immediately after, the cheers swept across the entire battlefield like a tide.
The surviving players embraced and wept with relief. Some waved the weapons in their hands and roared in celebration, while others squatted on the ground and gently stroked the injured dinosaurs with gratitude.
Still others were silent for a few minutes in respect for Carter, Super Nanny, Lake, Big Shrimp, and the many players who sacrificed themselves to make their victory possible.
They won. They had held onto hope in the midst of desperation and became the final victors of this survival competition on The Island.
Outside the arena, the livestream chat had already fallen into chaos with excitement.
[Well, that was surprising! From the Alliance almost being wiped out to Jose and Boshita flying in to save the day, I genuinely fell out of bed, watchin this!]
[I cried so hard when Super Nanny stood in front of Lake to shieldhim. I'll always remember him!!!!]
[The elite squad didn't stand a chance. I mean, what do you wanna do against two rivals who teamed up, wearing mootherflippin Tek Armors?]
[The way Jose and Boshita bicker yet are so in sync, I could watch it all over again. They might be a bit childish, but they sure are decent people.]
[36 survivors! This is a victory earned. Salute to all the players who died in battle.]
[Giganotosaurus was the MVP the whole time! Still tanking the damage until the end like a true G.]
[From the destruction of the Sun Gods to the Berserkers being ambushed, and then to the Alliance defending their mountain base to the death... This battle had more twists than a fuckinn novel!]
This survival competition on The Island, which spanned a hundred days, finally came to an end with the victory of 36 survivors.
