When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...
"Look ahead!"
After walking for more than ten minutes, Leng Yue, who was at the front, stopped. She was pointing to the barbed wire fence fifty meters ahead.
"What is this?" Little Fatty asked curiously.
"The underground alarm network will be displayed in the enemy's control room if any part of it is damaged!" Leng Yue was quite familiar with this barbed wire; it was a standard early warning method.
"Then how do we get across?" Little Fatty glanced around. The barbed wire fence had completely blocked the way, and it was clearly impossible to continue forward without damaging it.
“We’ve now entered the southern part of the city! But we still need to get past this alarm net!” Leng Yue pointed to the net that was blocking their way.
There was no way forward, because the cave ants couldn't dig any deeper, otherwise they would only trigger an alarm.
"What are these passages for?" Jiang Yuan noticed that at the end of the tunnel, there was a path opening to the left and right.
"We made these preparations beforehand. If you can't do anything about it, we'll have to force our way through!" Leng Yue said without looking up.
How do we get through?
Leng Yue shrugged and pointed to the passages on both sides. "Using force, I created two smoke screens 100 meters apart on each side. When we break through the checkpoint, the other two alarm networks will be destroyed. This way, the three alarms will distract the other side quite a bit!"
"So, do you have a solution?"
Leng Yue looked at the three of them expectantly, wanting a definite answer from them.
"Let's just force our way in. Once we spot them, we'll run. They won't have time to react!" Jiang Yuan suggested after waiting for a while.
"Okay, there's no other good way anyway!" Ning Yanlan agreed with this approach.
"We still have to take the risks!" Little Fatty nodded.
Leng Yue nodded, and two cave ants crawled out of her storage ring. "Little guys, one ant on each side, listen to my command and bite the web together!"
The two cave ants swayed their antennae incessantly, and after communicating, they went their separate ways.
"Get ready!"
Leng Yue focused his mind and calmed his spirit, and the lightning mark between his brows began to flash.
Apart from Leng Yue being relatively serious, the other three were rather 'lazy'. Of course, this laziness was unavoidable. First of all, Jiang Yuan himself was seriously injured, so it was normal for him not to be able to muster any energy. Ning Yanlan was in a similar situation; with her half-hearted vitality, it was unlikely that she would be able to move. As for Xiao Pang, although he possessed seventy-two points of strength, he still found the Meteorite Plate too heavy to supply with that strength, and his laziness was entirely forced upon him.
"Dark Assassination!"
Leng Yue swung her hand, and a beam of light struck down, but suddenly an alarm blared, which they could hear even ten meters underground.
Seeing that Leng Yue had stopped, Jiang Yuan urged her, "Hurry up and get started! Your two little ants have already broken through the web. If you're too late, they might target you!"
"Wait a minute, my little ants haven't made a move yet?" Leng Yue said with a puzzled look.
"Could it be that we've already been discovered?" Little Fatty asked in astonishment.
Just then, Ning Yanlan's expression changed drastically. Jiang Yuan noticed her unusual behavior and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Most of the ninth-tier monsters from the beast tide have been mobilized and have bypassed the southern city's defenses to enter the city!" Ning Yanlan's expression showed a hint of anxiety.
"A ninth-tier monster entering the city?"
Jiang Yuan and the other two wondered if they had misheard.
"Hurry up, the guards can't pay attention to us now!" Leng Yue slashed through the alarm net with a knife, and the Queen Ant frantically dug through the mud toward the storage ring. In less than half a minute, a vertical passage appeared in front of them.
"Let's go! A ninth-tier monster is attacking the city. This is no small matter. The South City is facing a major crisis!" Ning Yanlan's Stone Breath could sense the nearest monster.
"We can't worry about it anymore. In our current state, we're doomed if we face a ninth-tier opponent!" After encountering Chi Yu, Jiang Yuan gained a clear understanding of the ninth-tier opponent; they were not people like them who could kill them.
Moreover, the fact that these ninth-tier monsters in the beast tide dared to invade the South City clearly indicates that they were confident in their abilities, and that a few low-level individuals like them simply could not stop them.
As soon as the four members of the Oath Squad went up, they found that the South City was in chaos. Powerful spirit beasts were falling from the ground, and there were even spirit beasts that could stay airborne for a short time, slaughtering the humans in the South City.
"The alarm is on! Enemy detected!"
Just as Jiang Yuan showed his face, someone suddenly shouted, followed by more and more hurried footsteps.
"The monsters are tunneling in! Set up a defensive line and don't let a single monster into the south city!"
"Everyone, follow me!"
"Damn it, I'm being treated like a monster!" Jiang Yuan was speechless. Just two days ago, he was hailed as a hero by the South City humans, but now he's being treated like a monster. The contrast is too great.
"Watch me!"
Leng Yue pressed the acupoints on her face, and the combination of gentle and firm pressure changed her appearance slightly in just three seconds. She put on the hood of her concealing robe, shrouding her body in darkness.
"Every time I disguise myself, it hurts my facial muscles for several days!" Leng Yue moved her chewing muscles and jumped out of the tunnel after getting used to it.
"Is it human?"
One of the people who had gathered around shouted strangely, "Don't shoot! Find out what's going on first!"
"Useless trash, what are you asking? Can't you see that the ninth-tier monsters are already rampaging through South City? If you don't want to see South City stained with blood, then hurry up and fight against the ninth-tier monsters!" Leng Yue's aura was intimidating from the start.
"And who is this officer?"
"Vice Captain of the Oath Squad, our team is ordered to check the underground alarm network! But we didn't expect the monsters to be so brazen in coming to my South City!" Leng Yue pointed to her brow, and lightning flashed. Then she held a bolt of lightning in her hand.
"Oath Squad, let's go!"
At Leng Yue's command, Little Fatty was the first to jump out. He recovered some of his strength, and the weight of the meteorite plate in his hand returned to ten tons. When it crashed to the ground with a loud bang, the earth shook violently, and several guards who had surrounded him with guns were shaken so badly that they lost their footing.
"The strongest shield warrior in the Oath Squad!"
Little Fatty slammed his fists onto the meteorite plate, his eyes full of smugness. He had never shown his face in the South City, so it didn't matter if he was exposed. In fact, his exposure would benefit the development of the Oath Squad.
"hiss!"
The guards were dumbfounded. The man who claimed to be the strongest shield warrior in the Oath Squad had smashed a crater into the hard granite. Even a strength level of over 100 couldn't achieve that.
"Guard the South City well, and don't slack off!" Little Fatty gave the group a thumbs-up, then followed Leng Yue confidently.
Jiang Yuan and Ning Yanlan, on the other hand, didn't flaunt their presence. They simply covered themselves with hats and followed Leng Yue and the others under the cover of night.
Both of them are undoubtedly famous figures in Nancheng. Ning Yanlan already had a prominent status, and after she attempted to assassinate Sima Sheng, she was not killed but instead respectfully taken to the Holy Spirit Pavilion, so her status was self-evident. As for Jiang Yuan, needless to say, everyone knew him after the battle at the warlord prison. It can be said that as long as you are a Spirit Awakener in Nancheng, there is no one who doesn't know Jiang Yuan!
"Brothers, everyone is working hard, we can't let our guard down!"
