Not long after, above the Babylon Laboratory.
Portals opened up on top of the tower.
Numerous Honkai Beasts surged out of the portals, charging towards the buildings below.
"Bella, clean up down there," Sirin instructed Bella, looking at the laboratory below.
"Yes, My Queen."
Inside the Babylon Laboratory.
"Miss Elysia, please follow us to evacuate," Salome urgently opened Aili's room door.
(Snow Wolf Squad member, Salome, mentioned earlier)
"Hmm, it seems we can only leave for now," Aili walked next to Salome.
Soon after, all remaining personnel in the laboratory gathered at the exit.
"Lady Salome! The personnel have assembled, but outside the exit! Many Honkai Beasts have gathered!" As soon as Salome arrived at the exit, someone immediately reported the situation outside to her.
"Damn it..." Salome looked at the situation outside through the monitor.
"Nicholas! The two of us will go out and clear them! Everyone else, evacuate as quickly as possible!" Salome grabbed her weapon and immediately issued orders to the convoy.
"Miss Elysia, I hope you can protect the personnel in the convoy," Salome said to Aili as she reached the door, then rushed out through the door, which had just opened a crack.
Nicholas also followed closely behind.
"Really, she didn't even ask if I agreed or not," Aili had, at some point, also picked up her bow and arrow.
"Miss Elysia..." The convoy leader also looked at Aili.
"Alright, you guys just drive as fast as you can, and I'll take care of the rest," Aili looked at the many Honkai Beasts outside the crack in the door.
After drawing her bow and eliminating a Honkai Beast that tried to squeeze in, Aili directly passed through the crack in the door and went outside.
Salome and Nicholas were trying their best to clear the Honkai Beasts, and above their heads, there was also artillery support.
On the platform above the door, there was also a Valkyrie with only one arm remaining, using a machine gun to sweep at the Honkai Beasts below.
Dodging an attack from a nearby Honkai Beast, "Oh dear, such a sneak attack might scare Aili."
After casually smashing the Honkai Beast with her bow and arrow, Aili drew her bow and aimed at the several large creatures floating in the air.
"Now, please disappear first ♬ ~"
As the arrow flew out, the Honkai Emperor floating in the air fell directly.
"Next, it's over here ♬ ~" Aili aimed at the blocked road.
A pink light pierced through the snowy field, and the Honkai Beasts blocking the road slowly turned into ashes.
The convoy waiting at the exit also took this opportunity to rush out.
The Valkyrie on top of the large door also took the opportunity to jump onto the roof of the vehicle.
As the vehicles passed by Aili and the others, they also jumped onto the roofs of the vehicles, continuing to clear the Honkai Beasts approaching the convoy.
Bella, in the sky, saw the convoy on the ground, and above her head, a large amount of lightning gathered, finally converging into a lightning ball that smashed down towards the convoy.
The other people in the convoy looked at the lightning ball with some fear.
"Really, wouldn't it be better to just let us leave?" Aili muttered.
Then, a large amount of Honkai Energy gathered in Aili's hand, and finally, the crystallized Honkai Energy formed an arrow.
"In that case, I'll give you a flower."
Aili didn't draw her bow but directly threw the arrow out.
At this moment, Aili didn't have time to draw her bow again, besides, this lightning ball was so large that she could hit it with a casual throw.
The arrow and the lightning ball collided, exploding directly in the air into a flower formed by lightning.
Bella then saw Aili on the roof of the vehicle.
Bella, who was about to continue attacking, suddenly saw Aili make a pistol gesture, and she immediately looked behind her.
The external defensive weapons of the Babylon Laboratory suddenly activated at this moment, launching attacks at the surrounding Honkai Beasts as well as Bella.
After blocking the continuous attacks, Bella gritted her teeth and looked at the convoy that had already driven away. With good visibility, Bella also saw Aili blowing her a kiss.
Bella was just about to chase after them when Sirin appeared beside her.
"My Queen... Bella failed to complete your mission and let some little bugs escape," Bella immediately said, lowering her head.
"Don't worry, they will come back," Sirin also looked in the direction the convoy had left, "And that woman, tsk..."
Killing the Honkai Beasts blocking their way, after two days of rushing, Aili and the others finally met with the supporting Valkyries.
A girl holding a light blue longsword appeared beside them. After casually slaying the Honkai Beasts that were following, the supporting Valkyries took over the battle.
Nicholas sighed in relief, then sat directly on the roof of the vehicle, propping himself up with his weapon so he wouldn't lie down.
"Ha..." He panted heavily, "I didn't expect the Acting Commander to come and support us personally." Nicholas said casually.
"No disrespect, Acting Commander, we have only rescued these survivors." Salome, supporting her exhausted body, saluted the Valkyrie who had come to support them.
Acting Commander, Cheng Lixue, the strongest A-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal.
Cheng Lixue nodded, "You take the survivors directly back to headquarters, and I'll take care of the rest."
Cheng Lixue looked at the endless stream of Honkai Beasts behind her, standing there with her longsword raised.
"Then I'll leave the rest to you, Lixue, I really need a good rest right now..." Nicholas had just finished speaking when he propped himself up with his weapon and fell asleep on the roof of the vehicle.
Salome was also very tired now, but she still managed to support Nicholas and help him into the vehicle.
Although they took turns defending, such continuous combat, with only short periods of rest, would only make them more exhausted, but if they didn't rest, they wouldn't be able to lift their weapons.
The three members of the Snow Wolf Squad, as well as Aili, were all resting in this vehicle.
Hearing someone enter, Aili opened her eyes, "Is it time for the shift change?"
After speaking, Aili stretched lazily.
"No, the reinforcements have arrived, we can rest now, Miss Elysia." Salome helped Nicholas to the side, then also sat in the vehicle.
Leaning against the vehicle wall behind her, Salome fell asleep shortly after.
Patrick (Snow Wolf Squad A-rank Valkyrie) next to them also opened her eyes at this moment.
"What, you can still rest a bit, the Schicksal reinforcements have arrived," Aili said to her with a smile.
"Really, have the reinforcements arrived...?" Patrick heard this, sighed in relief, and finally closed her eyes to continue resting peacefully.
