I, the undead, save the world with the dolls

A massive crystal soul spear flew out from the tip of Stride's staff, and his other hand launched a sporadic fireball. The crystal soul spear tracked the vibrant incarnation, and the spiritual fireball drew an arc in the air, directly colliding with the elderly incarnations hiding behind cover.

The elders only knew about Sun Yang's battle and had no idea what special qualities this Strider possessed. When faced with the various magical spells cast by this magician, these elders could only use the psychic attacks at hand to counterattack.

However, the spellcasting skills of both sides were vastly different. Perhaps these elders had been comfortable for too long, and the various psychic powers they used were merely altered attack methods. In contrast, Stride, who had survived from the end of the gods to the decline of the mortal kingdom, possessed far greater combat experience and a deeper understanding of magic.

These alien elders even seemed slow and clumsy in controlling their incarnated bodies. All they could rely on was their surging psychic energy. They couldn't even dodge properly and had to rely on psychic transmission to maneuver.

Strade alone suppressed the attacks of seven or eight avatars. They had to constantly use their psychic energy to dodge, otherwise just resisting these tracking fireballs and tracking crystal guns would consume a lot of their psychic energy.

In the center of the battlefield, Sun Yang raised the spiral sword high and shouted out his proudest miracle.

"Sunshine Gun——!"

Dozens of meters long brilliant red lightning lit up in his hands. This dazzling, constantly changing light illuminated the dark base. The enormous energy attached to it even made the elders feel suffocated for a moment.

No one could withstand such an attack. When the elders realized that something was wrong, the tens-meter-long lightning struck one of the unlucky elders.

With a roar of thunder, a large crater was punched into the floor, leaving not a trace of the elder. This was a base built of high-quality materials; even a rocket wouldn't have been able to create a large crater.

The battle did not prove to be a bitter struggle for the undead, as the elders' incarnations had anticipated. Instead, the three undead each displayed their formidable fighting prowess, engaging the emerging elder in a close fight.

As the elders pondered how to defeat these enemies, they keenly sensed that the spiritual energy in the air was becoming unstable. The source of that guidance came from the other side of the battle line.

Commander Lena attacked again, stirring up the psychic environment on the battlefield, while several human warriors beside her raised their sniper rifles and fired at the elders on the battlefield, consuming their psychic energy and suppressing their actions.

The elders' attack and defense abilities were not affected much, but their psychic transmission, which required delicate manipulation, repeatedly failed. They immediately realized that they could not avoid all kinds of harm, and that the hateful traitor was going to kill them.

"Traitor!" The elder roared at Commander Lena who kept annoying and tripping people up.

"Hey, come and hit me if you dare!"

Commander Lunna said this as she backflipped on the spot, dodging a stray bolt of psychic energy. Although she was also an elder, she had long since grown accustomed to her human form. Now, with this healthy and vibrant body, and the added bonus of psychic energy, running and jumping was effortless.

"You still have time to talk?" Sun Yang only needed two or three seconds to condense a spear of sunlight. When Commander Lena banned the elders' teleportation ability, these creatures with slow movements and only psychic powers began to countdown to death.

The elders died one after another with screams. Half of them were killed by Strade's tracking spell, a quarter was caught up and beheaded by Rukatiye, and the last quarter was blown to pieces by Sun Yang's powerful Sunlight Spear.

Only the last two avatars remained. One of them, using its last psychic energy, leaped towards Commander Lunna, wailing.

"I implore you, you are our avatar, you can lead our army and save your world. Return to us, lead our army, and do not hesitate any longer!"

"Ah, don't come over here. I can't tell my men apart." Commander Lunna quickly painted the words XCOM in red on herself so her teammates could tell who was the commander. Then, with two shots, she pierced the avatar's head.

"I don't understand what you're saying." After smashing its head, Commander Lunna continued issuing defensive orders to the surrounding XCOMs. Perhaps these elders still had some unspeakable reasons, but Commander Lunna just wanted to drive the aliens away completely.

"Oh~ What an abundant soul." Strade chuckled, and the alien troops and the incarnations of the elders who died in large numbers on the battlefield burst out with fresh life energy - souls.

He narrowed his eyes comfortably, and casually fired a shot of crystal soul gun, killing the last stubbornly resisting elder incarnation.

When the elders' psychic suppression ended, Griffin's combat troops quickly recovered their combat effectiveness, recovering from the effects of the psychic energy. Without the elders' psychic suppression, the alien troops were no match for Griffin.

The alien forces had exhausted their supplies, but Sun Yang's first batch of troops still had ample firepower. The humanoids' weapons were equipped with small 3D printers, allowing them to continuously refill with new ammunition. As long as the barrels didn't overheat, they could keep firing.

Boom... However, amidst the fierce battle, people heard a sinister sound. The floor beneath their feet was shaking.

With the deaths of the elder avatars, the psychic environment in this area became extremely unstable. The elders were not only masters of psionic energy, but also the core responsible for maintaining the psionic environment. When the avatars died in large numbers, the abundant psionic energy throughout the base began to deplete, and the machines that relied on psionic energy gradually stopped working, paralyzing the entire secret base.

This base, built somewhere unknown, was indeed quite secretive, but the environment seemed unsettled. When people realized something was amiss, the entire building trembled slightly. A crack appeared in the glass nearby, and a pale green liquid gushed in.

"This is not a texture, it's just water." Sun Yang shouted at Lena next door.

"Ah? Really in the sea?!" Lena was confused, but she quickly regained her spirits.

"The elders are all dead! Retreat!" Commander Lena shouted. Although the remaining XCOM troops did not understand why the base collapsed after the elders died, they still retreated quickly and ran back to the psychic gate.

"Eh? Eh? If the elder dies, will this base collapse? I haven't even used the nuclear weapons yet!"

Even Sun Yang, who had fought the original game, was baffled. He hadn't even finished dealing with these humanoids and combat troops yet! Those alien troops were still engaged in a bloody battle with Griffin's troops, not taking their lives seriously at all.

"Judge! Collect the data of the Iron Blood puppets! Everyone else! Retreat if possible!" Sun Yang could only push all the remaining Iron Blood puppets forward and let the elite Iron Blood and tactical humanoids withdraw.

Sun Yang quickly sent the armored vehicles and the figures back home, cursing, "Damn it! I was thinking of sending the engineering troops over to cut some materials, but now I'm losing out!"

However, this unit had the largest number of Iron-Blooded Puppets. After assigning these puppets to the rearguard, the remaining troops numbered only a little over a hundred. Sun Yang spent several minutes sending back the troops that had been fighting for less than an hour.

On the other side, Commander Lena has restarted the psychic gate to the XCOM flagship and sent all the surviving troops out.

"Hey! You three! I can't maintain my psychic power for too long - eh?!" Commander Lena had just finished speaking when countless purple auras surged out from the depths of the base and into the dormitory.

"I knew it wasn't that simple. The elders only had their avatars destroyed, but they weren't dead in essence!" Sun Yang quickly stuck the spiral sword into the ground and asked Rukatiye and Strade to sit down and make a fire to recover.

485 The alien elder is very strong

"Stupid! You don't even know what you've done?!" More than a dozen tall, transparent figures emerged in the air. When the figures gradually became clearer, everyone present could clearly see that they were alien elders who were on the verge of physical destruction.

Although their brand new bodies have been destroyed, their originally tattered bodies are still preserved in the coffins, and their lifespans are extended as much as possible with the help of high technology.

The new body has been destroyed, and their last base has been discovered. At the same time, due to the intense fighting, various experimental facilities have been shattered. The alien elders now have insufficient resources to create new incarnations for themselves.

Besides, they are already exhausted and may die suddenly on the spot before they can get a new body.

These elders projected powerful psionic shadows, gathering their remaining psychic energy together. The body wielded by Commander Lunna before them was their only hope! Seize it! Fight for it! Tear apart this traitor's soul. Even if dozens of elders occupied one body, they could once again command their troops and rise again!

"Why aren't you dead yet?" Commander Lena summoned up all her psychic power to fight against them. Even though she had been conserving her psychic power for a long time, and even though the body she controlled possessed unparalleled psychic potential, she was still at a disadvantage when facing the joint attack of more than a dozen dying elders.

The coffins of these elders were placed deep within the base, their weakened bodies receiving the utmost care and protection, a dense network of defenses. Even as the base neared destruction, a group of alien troops remained loyally guarding it. It was clearly too late to kill the alien elders by attacking their original bodies...

"You guys really don't take us seriously!" In the surging vortex of psychic energy, Sun Yang stood out, the spiral sword in his hand still shining.

"Sun Yang! I don't have time to help you! Please fend for yourself!" Commander Lena shouted anxiously.

"Bastards! Don't get in the way!" One of the elders released some spiritual energy and hit Sun Yang, but Sun Yang dodged it easily.

"You look very anxious, don't be afraid, some of your anxiety is your fault. Rukatiye, please come and guard, Strade, it's time to show our friendship combo magic!" Sun Yang threw a shield with high magic resistance to Rukatiye.

"To be honest, I always feel something is wrong." Rukatiye took the shield, caught several psychic rays, and looked at Strade who was also a little embarrassed.

"This is Master Sun Yang's order, I will naturally obey." Strider felt awkward when he heard about the friendly attack. Although he felt very uncomfortable, he still let Sun Yang handle such details.

"What are you doing...?" Even the elders didn't know what Sun Yang was going to do for a moment. They just used some of their strength to interfere with Sun Yang, while accelerating the suppression and attack on Commander Lena.

Rukatiye held up his shield to block all the incoming psychic attacks, while Sun Yang and Strade began to move in sync on the left and right.

"The potential within!" "The potential within!"

The two men absorbed the flames that could greatly increase their strength into their bodies. For a moment, their bodies were covered in a layer of crimson flames.

"Warm Flame." Strade released an additional bright flame, which would continue to heal the undead around him, just offsetting the damage to the inner potential.

“Release the magic!” “Release the magic!”

At the same time, a deep blue aura rose up. This magic temporarily changed the body structure, overloaded the body, and allowed the body to release more and more powerful magical attacks.

Tun tun tun... They each drank a bottle of potion. Strider's potion only replenished mana, while Sun Yang's potion was a three-in-one potion.

Even someone as skilled as Sun Yang couldn't handle the sheer volume of buff magic he was absorbing. He felt a sharp pain, and the boiling power within him seemed like it would tear him apart in the next second.

"Show these aliens the magic of our friendship, Strade! Soul Torrent--!" Sun Yang raised the spiral sword high, and a soul ray half the size of a person spurted out from the tip. This ray can continue to shoot until Sun Yang's physical strength or magic power is exhausted.

"Only this once." Strider's face darkened as he extended his staff. A slightly thinner, but darker, stream of soul surged forth. Two streams of magic, powerful enough to pierce through most of the base, headed straight for the images of the elders in the air.

The inherent potential of Dark Soul One, the liberated magic of Dark Soul Two, and the Soul Torrent developed by Dark Soul Three combined to launch a magical attack towards those powerful psychic projections.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooo!!" The elders were frightened and let out strange shouts, and they all channeled more spiritual energy to fight against the soul torrent released by Strade and Sun Yang.

"You will die under our friendship magic! Yep! Disappear from this world!"

Guiding and enduring the tremendous pain in their bodies, the two torrents of magic released by Sun Yang and Strade collided with the torrent of psychic energy formed by the elders. After receiving the maximum strengthening at present, the two undead were fully capable of fighting against these alien elders.

It wasn't a direct confrontation; Commander Lunna bore the primary responsibility, with Sun Yang's side acting as a diversion. Even so, Lunna, nearly dead from the oppression, finally recovered and slowly stood up.

And then...then I couldn't push it anymore.

The two sides were deadlocked, neither able to push the other. Although Sun Yang and Strider were already considered heroes among the Undead Mages and had stacked buffs, they could not withstand the high stats of the alien elder.

Why the hell is this XCOM commander so lame? Aren't you supposed to just go into the CG and easily push the alien elders back and wipe them out?! This isn't what I expected! I didn't do anything to provoke the enemy this time, I was just focusing on killing the aliens! Why are these elders holding up?

Are the elders so resilient these days?! Is it because I fought too quickly and didn't wear them down?! I should have waited two months before carrying out the mission! Maybe in two months these elders will be too weak to fight... Was it my mistake to rush to eliminate the elders?

But in the end, damn it, Lunna! You're such a loser! How come you're so weak against Bo! Although Sun Yang was yelling in his heart, he couldn't just curse out loud and shake the morale of the troops.

Undead are known for their immense explosive power and terrifying resilience, but they cannot sustain such explosive power, just as no human can run a marathon at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.

The same goes for Sun Yang and Strade. Although they drank a lot, their physical strength and magic power will eventually run out.

The only one who consumed the most energy was the old man's ring of faded ones, as drinking a bottle of elixir could nourish them for a long time. Sun Yang and Strider were not so good at it. In just one minute, they consumed a third of their magic power reserves.

"Liberate Magic Power" temporarily increased their output, causing their magic to drain rapidly. However, Commander Lunna and the alien elders seemed to be able to hold on.

Damn it... I should have left some humanoid troops behind... Never mind, with this shitty psychic environment, all the mechanical troops are going to be wiped out. Technological stealth suits are useless. At this point, we can only rely on the undead.

"Rukatiye! I need you!" Sun Yang shouted to Rukatiye who was blocking the occasional psychic energy jets in front of him.

"Speak!" Rukatiye shouted without turning his head. Sun Yang took out a nuclear fusion bomb and threw it to Rukatiye, and then took out a magic wand and threw it to Strider.

"Go... blow up the elder's coffin. Strade, can you cast a spell at the same time to make her invisible... I'm maintaining the soul torrent and have no extra concentration!" Sun Yang gave new orders to the two undead.

"You really are good at commanding people, Master Sun Yang," said Stride, but his hands were still swiftly applying the invisible body and spy to Rukatiye to reduce the sound of his footsteps. In an instant, the people around him could only hear a slight fluctuation in the air.

"Wait for my good news!" A shout filled the air, and then there was no sound. However, Sun Yang knew that Rukatie was swiftly crossing the battlefield, running towards the depths, her leaping speed comparable to that of a humanoid.

Sun Yang didn't have any reliable tactics, but with his StarCraft Gold rank, he did have one tactic that was incredibly reliable, with a 50% success rate: the home exchange.

Switch to another position when you have an advantage to expand your victory, switch to another position when you are in a balanced position to open up the situation, and switch to another position when you are at a disadvantage to fight for your life. Now is the time to fight!

486 Killing the Elder

"Stop her! Stop her!" The elders were not blind, so they could naturally see Sun Yang giving Rukatiye the BUFF. They immediately activated their own spiritual power and marked out Rukatiye's life signals.

Some of the alien troops who were still holding on ran out. They didn't dare to get too close. Near the three undead men and Commander Lena, the psychic power was so strong that it could directly paralyze electronic equipment.

A few foolish alien soldiers got too close, and their plasma weapons immediately overloaded and exploded, killing the wielders on the spot. With this lesson learned, the remaining alien forces carefully established a defense line at a distance.

It was difficult for the alien troops to just get close. The psychic power that dissipated in this space restricted Sun Yang from using humanoid and mechanical units to fight, but it also restricted the attack of the elders' troops.

The soldiers' individual weapons lacked range, and the various guided missiles and rockets they fired were suddenly detonated when they approached the psychic zone. The elders had no time to guide the rockets, and a confrontation with two undead and a Lunna commander would also kill them.

Rukatiye rushed across half the field with almost no impact. The fusion bomb in her hand was specially designed to be very strong - at least the alien elders did not dare to bet on how strong the fusion bomb was.

If the fusion bomb short-circuited halfway, it would be fine. If it could be activated normally after being thrown into the right place, they would all die here. The alien elders did not dare to gamble here.

The attacks around Rukatiye gradually increased. She would soon be within the attack range of the alien forces, and the protection provided by the alien elders was about to disappear.

The psychic soldiers in the alien army, under the guidance of the elders, projected Rukatiye's life signal, and in an instant, she was under a violent attack.

"Whoosh!" Rukatiye didn't dare to stop running. She leaped among the ruins and wreckage, relying on the fragments blown out in the battle as cover to restore her strength, but the fragments quickly disappeared under the concentrated fire of the alien forces.

"Damn it! Rukatiye won't be able to reach the target at this rate... Wait, they don't dare to get close to here?" Sun Yang keenly realized this. "Those alien soldiers are also afraid of the environment here? Psychic energy is also harmful to them!"

"If you have any idea, just tell me! Master Sun Yang!" Strade was struggling to hold on, his magic power reserves were gradually running out.

"I do have a plan...Lenna! Can you hold on?!" Sun Yang shouted to the side.

"Uh... one minute?" Lena estimated through gritted teeth.

"Just barely. Strade, I'm going to attack. You try your best to maintain the attack. If you can't, keep up." Sun Yang shouted while holding the spiral sword.

"...Go ahead, Master Sun Yang." Strider sighed, and in an instant, he unleashed an even more powerful torrent, briefly suppressing the alien elder's attack. Sun Yang seized the opportunity to halt the soul torrent and instead condensed a dozens-meter-long spear of sunlight.

"I'm going... take it! Sunlight Spear!" The Sunlight Spear thrown by Sun Yang crossed a distance of more than ten kilometers and smashed into the position of the alien forces in one breath.

This miracle, strengthened by its inherent potential and liberated magical energy, unleashed a far more terrifying force than before. A single strike shredded nearly a hundred-meter radius. Units within a three-hundred-meter radius suffered varying degrees of paralysis and incapacity.

The sudden attack startled the alien troops. They saw only a flash of lightning streaking across the battlefield before being blown away by the blast. The less fortunate saw their weapons explode, and for a moment the battlefield was filled with the sounds of explosions and the screams of aliens.

The consequences of the alien elders' shoddy workmanship were now apparent. Their weapons could not withstand any decent stimulation, and the escaped lightning power alone was enough to detonate the weapons in their hands.

Taking advantage of the alien troops' firepower vacuum, Sun Yang gripped the spiral sword tightly, and the sword turned into a slender javelin under his will.

"Rukatiye! Catch it! Keep throwing it!" The inner potential unleashed the undead's potential, even increasing Sun Yang's strength by 50%. His already considerable strength, after this amplification, rivaled that of the strongest in the Dark Souls world.

Sun Yang threw the spiral sword, and with its powerful arm strength, it flew out at a speed exceeding the speed of sound. Rukatiye had already turned back when she saw the lightning spears crush the troops ahead, and she just happened to see the moment Sun Yang threw the spiral sword.

Without a second thought, she stretched out her left arm. The spiral sword pierced her arm squarely, sending her flying twice before she regained her balance—she used her strong muscles to firmly grasp the spiral sword.

Rukatiye did not stop for long. She pulled out the spiral sword and threw it hard towards the deep part of the building, where the coffins of the alien elders were located.

The spiral sword launched at an even faster speed. Rukatiye's strength was far greater than Sun Yang's. As a warrior who had undergone rigorous training and had extensive experience in cold weapon combat, she naturally knew better than Sun Yang how to throw the spear faster, farther, and more accurately.

After all, there were loyal aliens. Several mechas and mutants hurriedly blocked the way, and the spiral sword finally pierced the shell of one of the mechas.
