The trio of youth look at the huge monster that was approaching them. It looked like a T-rex, sharp teeth, powerful jaws and and extremely thick hide. The man did not wait for the other two and began his own offensive against the monster using his sword. A powerful twist of his arms and the sword qi unleashed from the tip of the sword came in contact with the chest of the monster.
The monster remained unscathed, to the chagrin of the man. "This big thing is very durable. Eat this!" He shouted as he swung his sword again, however this time his entire body had suddenly become sharp as if it would pierce the skies. The powerful sword move collided with the huge and powerful muscular tail of the monster which decided to slam the man across a tree. The sword had a deep indentation into the tail and the monster was hurt and roared. However, the impulse from the tail's hit flung the man towards a tree, whose branches suddenly moved of their own volition and simply pierced the young man in his back.
"No!" The cold woman, shocked at the sudden turn of events ran over and shot a powerful punch which sent shockwaves into the air onto the monster who was flung far away as a result of the hit. Both she and the blonde girl ran towards the young man who was impaled on the tree's branches. His body fluids seemed to be slowly be sucked out and the man was becoming docile submitting to death. Without a beat, the blonde girl shot at the branches and burst them apart , freeing the young man, but he seemed to have become extremely weak.
"I have been poisoned by that tree." He murmured, as the two girls slowly took him back into the space ship to get antidote, heal and recover life force that was absorbed by the tree. Meanwhile the other troops were now still setting up the perimeter. The huge monster had been hit away, but the battle had only begun.
Three hours had now passed since they first landed. The two girls were extremely exhausted. They had been constantly fighting hordes of beasts that continued to swarm and attack them with impunity. The blonde girl was at her limits. "Elly, I cannot continue anymore." She spoke to the bob cut cold woman.
"We need to persevere for a little longer, the perimeter has almost been set, Lana." The girl replied to the blonde girl, Lana.
"I can see a powerful storm is arriving. Soldiers, has the ship's hull been repaired?" Lana asked with a tired face looking at the troops who too were extremely exhausted at working over limits.
"M'lady, all our effort has been on clearing the area, we just need to set up the last pole for the perimeter field, and we will work on fixing the hull immediately."
As the final perimeter pole was being set up, the two girls continued over exerting themselves as beasts kept tumbling down towards them.
"We must be doing something wrong which has caused a lot of the monsters to target us beyond reason." Lana spoke with a heavy heart.
Elly punched a monster to death as she kept a lookout. "The monsters are thinning, and the perimeter has almost been set up, looks like we will make it." She breathed a sigh of relief. However, moments after she spoke her eyes widened with horror as she realized the reason the monsters were swarming them.
"The monsters... were being rushed towards us... by that that?" Elly spoke. " Perimeter! Quickly!" She screamed. With one look she could make out the power of that absurd hominid creature. It suddenly appeared and tore down monsters like they were paper. Fighting against one such monster, she realized would be extremely difficult in her tired state. However, soon at least twenty of them had surrounded their group.
The hunter closest to the girls suddenly rushed with an extremely high speed towards the two of them. Both Lana and Elly, panicked, prepared for a life and death crisis, but just as the monster was going to reach their vicinity it was blown back by the newly acting perimeter. An electronic force field that repelled the hunter which roared powerfully a sonic blast towards the group. The entire group suddenly found themselves stunned into paralysis. Luckily, the perimeter remained active and repelled any intruders.
After a few seconds of stupor, Elly reacted first. "Quick! Wake up! We need to repair the hull and exit the planet immediately. We aren't a match for these humanoid monsters in numbers!". As if to reinforce what she said, the perimeter suddenly gave way with the attack of a powerful hunter who then pounced onto the defenders.
At that moment, a young man with a mask covering his face suddenly jumped in between the humans and the hunters from a tall tree before suddenly throwing out five tiny metallic spheres onto the ground. These spheres made powerful screeching voices that immediately had the hunters paralyzed into shock and twisting and turning on the ground. Seeing this both Elly and Lana were shocked. "What are you waiting for? Kill them now!" The young man said before he took out his laser rifle and started shooting the hunters point blank. The spheres would release a powerful ultrasonic wave that most humans couldn't hear and was thus ineffective on them.
The young man was none other than Red. He along with the other two young women began a massacre of the defenseless hunters with their weapons. In the meantime, the remaining crew had partially repaired the hull.
"Who are you? How come you are here despite not being a martial artist?" Elly asked as she curiously looked at Red. She could make out that he wasn't a martial artist, but his physique was very healthy and his perception and reaction speed seemed extraordinary. She was confused what this young man was doing all alone on this planet that had clearly morphed beyond comprehension.
"You can call me Red. As far as me being here, I cannot reveal my mission." Red cooked up an image of a mysterious figure so that he didn't have to reveal himself as a survivor of Puratynt B's apocalypse. What Red said made Elly's eyes widen. She wondered if he was from the secret service or some special squad sent on a secret mission.
"Thank you for helping us at a crutch moment." Lana said. "It is clear that we underestimated the difficulty of even scouting this place and will return to space for repairs. What will you be doing next?"
Red thought for a moment. This was his best opportunity to leave the planet. "If possible it would be great if you could give me a ride to Puratynt A, the imperial capital of this system, without notifying anyone about my presence." He said contemplatively. "If you do, I could provide you with some intel regarding the situation on this planet that you could report as part of your scouting mission."
"Sounds good." Elly said before shaking hands with Red. "My name is Elly. This here is Lana."
