Chapter 17: Yeying Disaster
On the third day after entering the Yulia rocky area, Yaye, the captain of the Villain Team, no, the Disaster Emperor Sniper Team, finally led his team through the layers of rocky hills and approached the Disaster Emperor's hiding area.
Although it was only three days, the people in Beichen gained a lot.
First, the twin warships Black Disaster and White Robbery advanced to the fourth round. Now that both contracted warships have opened (?) the ability to detect astral energy, Beichen's perception of the surrounding astral energy concentration has become more acute, and his actions against the possessed Moon Envoy have become more swift and precise.
Then, after Xiang Ying successfully hunted countless fourth-level bull-shaped parasitic moon messengers in Beichen, he finally worked hard to advance to the fifth string. This advancement made everyone in Beichen very happy because the abilities gained by the fifth string weapon were very practical and popular.
──Storage space.
From then on, small gifts no longer had to be carried on the back. After handing them over to Xiang Ying, he would store them in his own alien space. No one except Xiang Ying and Beichen could get to them. Beichen, whose weight was greatly reduced, was in better condition during combat.
However, the size of the storage space of each weapon is fixed by nature and cannot grow. Xiangying's storage space - Beichen placed his hand on the brand and closed his eyes to observe it carefully. It was a cylindrical object shining with white light. The bottom surface was a square of about one meter and about two meters high. Although it was not very large, it was enough for Beichen.
What's interesting is that as the owner of the contract, he can only access things from it through the brand, but as the owner of the alien space, Xiang Ying can arrange, move and classify the items in that space. When Beichen threw all the gifts in, it was still a mess. After 30 minutes, when he went in again, he found that there were many more gratings like partitions in the space. The gifts were neatly classified and placed, and small, neat and neat characters were floating in the air around them: "Food", "Spirit Crystal", "Ailan Grass", "Star Spirit Core", "Master's Change of Clothes", "Master's Drops", - it can even be labeled.
Beichen was deeply moved as he looked at the space: "Xiang Ying, you are such a good partner that I can't even find you with a lantern──But why did you pick up my fallen hair and keep it? That kind of thing is completely useless. What is the purpose of this "drops" column? !
However, ever since learning about the storage space, Beichen's curiosity has been aroused. She always runs to Yaye to try to please him and want to see his storage space. Yaye is annoyed by her and finally agrees to let her look for ten seconds.
──As a result, Beichen saw a hexagonal space of one hundred square meters and about three meters high. It was horribly filled with various spirit crystals, star spirit cores, animal bones, strange plants, bottles containing skulls, fishing rods, musical instruments that looked like flutes, wooden stakes with carvings of completely unknown meaning, earthen masks that looked like they came from primitive tribes, a gorgeous big bed, and even a pile of corpses of possessed moon messengers.
I said, Mr. Yaye, you should practice your self-care ability.
──Although Beichen really wanted to say that, he didn't have the courage, so he could only make meaningful eyes at Yaye and try to express his meaning with his eyes. Yaye's forehead was so red that veins popped out, and he kicked her to Heihuo and Sujie to continue the special training.
As for Rui, he also completed the cooperative training with Yaye. Except for the occasional symptoms of poisoning that made him suddenly weak, he was no different from ordinary people at other times. Of course, it was also possible that he was pretending, because Beichen was once woken up by the mountain wind in the middle of the night and accidentally saw him hiding behind the tent and eating dried meat in big mouthfuls. He was obviously retching from eating so much, but he still chewed hard with a frown.
He really wanted to live.
Seeing this scene, Beichen quietly retreated, but silently made up his mind to cure him.
In short, except for Rui's condition which was difficult to judge, everyone else was in good condition. On the evening of the third day, Yaye said he was going to check out the terrain and disappeared. At midnight, Beichen was awakened by Xiang Ying and saw Rui, Gemini Hook Claws and Yaye sitting by a blazing bonfire. In Yaye's hand was a piece of paper that looked like parchment with black lines like charcoal on it, forming a simple map.
"This is where we are now." Yaye pointed his finger at a certain point above. Beichen almost spit out the half-drunk water he had drunk.
Why draw a loach to mark our current location? Why would you just draw a circle? Why put so much thought into this meaningless thing?!
Weird! Ignoring Beichen's distorted expression, Yaye pointed to another corner of the map, where a cute cat head was drawn.
Book~! "The Disaster Emperor is here, connected to an underground passage about 500 meters away, at the deepest part of the cave."
Net~! Beichen twitched his lips and nodded: Actually, Yaye, you like painting very much, right?
"There are several entrances to the cave. Xiang Beichen will naturally attack from the front and attract the attention of the Disaster Emperor."
Unfortunately, it had nothing to do with the lovely map. Yaye stated the cruel battle strategy without changing his expression. Beichen's mouth, which was about to rise, immediately drooped.
"There's a tunnel high up on the side of the cave wall that leads to a stone platform suitable for resting. Prince Rui, you and I will go around that side. I don't think the Emperor of Disaster's jumping ability can reach that point. I'm a Darkfallen, and I have the ability to levitate. So, I'll be responsible for transporting the crystals and protecting Prince Rui."
Everyone nodded.
"As for Hei Huo and Su Jie, you two will be responsible for sneak attacks and mobile operations. You must be very proficient in coordinating with Xiang Ying."
"nature."
"Yeah, no problem."
After looking around at everyone again, Yaye waved his hand, a red light flashed, and he seemed to casually throw the map into his storage space - that's why his storage space is so messy.
Then he took a few steps back with the sickle in his hand, and with a flip of his wrist, a purple-black evil light flashed in the night.
"From now until dawn, make minimal noise and eliminate all low-level possessed Moon Envoys nearby. After dawn, listen to my signal to launch a general attack. Boys, hold your necks tight and act with caution. If anyone dares to get hurt without my permission, I'll hang them in the waterfall for three days!"
Although Yaye spoke arrogantly and with some logical contradictions, the others all smiled.
The black sickle drew an arc and pointed at the hill ahead. As usual, Yaye raised his chin and gave everyone a cold and ghostly evil smile, and then -
"Disband, our bloody feast begins!"
When the moon completely disappeared in the sky and the warm-toned morning glow spread bright morning light over the earth, the most important hunt of this trip began.
Beichen, holding Xiangying, lay in ambush in the blind spot outside the entrance of the cave where the Disaster King was for nearly half an hour. While calming down his nervous mood, he gently pounded his legs that were numb from squatting, but his eyes never left the Disaster King who was dozing with his eyes half closed in the cave.
The appearance of this Disaster King was very strange, and it was smaller than the one he had seen last time. Its lower body was like an insect, with a huge shell and limbs, and at least twenty slender legs covered with black fur that moved slightly, making Beichen feel nauseous. Its upper body was covered with fur, and it had long forearms similar to those of a giant ape, a head with four compound eyes, and white crystals concentrated on its neck and chest, which were not very large. It seemed very difficult to get them.
"Little Loach, we've successfully circled behind it and taken our position. How are things going on your end?"
At this time, the voice of Heihuai was heard in the mental communication channel, and Beichen hurriedly responded.
"We're ready. Can you see the platform? How are Mr. Rui and Mr. Yaye preparing?"
"Oh! He's here. Wait for his signal."
Another minute passed in the tense atmosphere, and then—
In that moment, as if time stood still, a black and white figure suddenly burst out from the shadows of the rock wall and crashed directly into the upper body of the Disaster Emperor!
Gah!
Amidst the unpleasant and shrill roar of the Disaster Emperor, the battle unfolded. After the figure succeeded in the sneak attack, he gracefully flipped backwards in the air and jumped back onto the platform.
It was Yaye. A flash of white light appeared in his hand, and a finger-sized, elongated white crystal appeared!
Yaye sneered as he looked at the Disaster King jumping towards the platform, broke the crystal in his hand into two small pieces, and threw them to Rui behind him.
Less than ten seconds later, the first and second crystals were already obtained!
Beichen cheered in his heart, took a deep breath, and rushed out of the shadows with Xiangying, rushing towards the Disaster Emperor - but the opponent seemed to be upset because his crystal had been taken away, and just kept jumping towards the platform, completely ignoring Beichen's existence. Qi: Book: Net, and Yaye on the platform, after successfully launching a sneak attack, launched several more attacks, but was blocked by the Disaster Emperor's thick arms and sharp steel claws.
Seeing Beichen coming, Yaye took a few steps back, protecting Rui, who had swallowed the crystal and was closing his eyes. The Disaster King's jumping ability was higher than he had imagined, and the platform could not be said to be absolutely safe.
“Haaaaaaa!!”
With a roar of encouragement, Beichen rushed to the feet of the Disaster Emperor, waved his arms, and brought a dazzling white light towards Ying, cutting off three of the arthropod-like thin legs in one breath!
Black mucus splashed out, and the severed thin legs flew far away, twitching on the ground. The Disaster King roared loudly, then finally turned his gaze, raised his huge arms high, clenched them into fists, and smashed them down at Beichen!
Boom!!
Beichen lunged sideways, and his huge fist smashed into the ground of the cave, splashing a lot of green moss and causing the ground to shake noticeably - what a great arm strength!
Good opportunity!!
Beichen loosened her grip and gently flipped her arm. Xiangying's sword swiftly circled around her palm, smoothly transitioning into a backhanded sword grip. Then she leaped up and stomped hard on the giant fist, which had been stuck in the mud and unable to be pulled up due to its immense arm strength. Using her weight and all her arm strength, she drove the entire blade of Xiangying's sword through the giant arm, pinning it straight to the ground!
The Disaster King roared again, leaning his upper body back to try to pull the sword away - but failed.
However, he clearly had another hand but did not use it to draw the sword. Instead, he used it to continue attacking Beichen. It seemed that the Disaster Emperor's brain was not working very well.
The Disaster King, with only one arm still able to move, waved his arms around aimlessly but couldn't hit Beichen. He became even more furious, opened his fang-filled mouth, and began to gather the Star Spirit Cannon.
Tsk!!
The sound of a sharp blade digging into flesh came from behind the Disaster Emperor. When he turned around, Hei Huo had a cruel smile on his face, one foot on the Disaster Emperor's shoulder, and threw a white light in his hand towards Ya Ye on the platform!
The third piece!!
At the same time, Su Jie appeared in Beichen's left hand, and with a backhand sweep, a large amount of blood immediately spurted out of the other hand of the Disaster Emperor. Under the three parallel wounds, the white bones were exposed. The Star Spirit Cannon was interrupted by the Disaster Emperor's roar!
"Black Plague!"
Beichen stepped on the giant arm nailed to the ground and stretched out his hand towards Heihuo. Heihuo laughed and turned into a hook and came to Beichen's right hand. Then, Beichen pounced forward, and the hook hung on the shoulder of the Disaster King. With a beautiful somersault, he flexibly flipped to the back of the Disaster King. Then he climbed with his left hand, found the target with his right hand, and dug down with the hook flexibly. With a flip, a white crystal the size of a finger fell into Beichen's hand.
"Ya Ye!!"
Beichen raised his hand and threw the fourth crystal over! !
Yaye on the opposite platform reached out to catch the crystal, but his expression suddenly changed. He stared at Beichen's back and yelled:
"behind!!"
Beichen was startled, the claws in her hand loosened and she rolled sideways to the ground. Immediately, something flew past her head.
...is a dark green liquid.
The water that splashed on the Disaster Emperor himself was fine, but the part that splashed on the ground immediately made a sizzling corrosion sound.
Beichen looked in the direction where the liquid was shooting out with a pale face. It was the lower body of the Disaster King, a big hole that looked like the tail of an insect. It seemed that the venom was being emitted from there.
“……!”
Before he could come to his senses, another stream of venom was fired at Beichen!
“Damn it!!”
When Beichen ducked to dodge, Heihuo raised his hand and waved it, clearing away the few drops of liquid that almost splashed onto Beichen, but at the same time, a thin puff of black smoke emerged from the blade of Heihuo's hooked claw.
"Black Plague!"
Beichen's face changed and he screamed.
"It's okay, hide now!"
Just as Hei Huo finished speaking, the third and fourth streams of venom shot towards him. Since it was liquid, it spread widely while flying in the air. Even if Beichen ran as fast as he could, it seemed difficult for him to completely avoid it. This time, Su Jie lifted Beichen's arm to intercept the venom.
"Don't be stupid!"
After Su Jie groaned and released a few drops of venom, Beichen finally regained control. She stretched out her hand, protected her chest with her two claws, and pounced forward with her back to the venom!
“Woo!!”
Beichen screamed softly, and the light armor on his back was completely melted. A few drops of venom penetrated the thick clothes and light armor, burning his healthy and fair skin into an ugly charred black.
"Beichen, is there something wrong with your brain?!"
"Who is being stupid?!"
Heihuo and Sujie roared furiously in Beichen's arms. Heihuo even completely forgot the strange names he usually used and called her name directly.
The venom seemed to have run out, so it stopped firing. Instead, the Star Spirit Cannon, as the Disaster King had said, rushed straight towards Yaye and Rui on the platform! Fortunately, Rui was no weakling either. Yaye transformed back into a weapon, and Rui, calmly folding his arms and swinging them, formed a beautiful defensive circle with Yaye, completely scattering the Star Spirit Cannons.
Beichen took advantage of the opportunity and endured the severe pain to get up from the ground, but she still rolled her eyes at the weapon in her hand.
"Of course you're the fools! I'm wearing light armor, but you have nothing on you!"
Gemini Claw was stunned and couldn't say anything for a moment.
Beichen continued: "You guys change back into human form and cut off all their legs. I'll go get Xiangying!"
Without saying anything more, two figures, one black and one white, left Beichen's hands and rushed to the sides of the Disaster Emperor in two directions. The Disaster Emperor was firing the second Star Spirit Cannon at Rui at this time. Beichen seized the opportunity to pull Xiang Ying out of the giant arm, leaving a long arc of blood.
At the same time, black and white lights flashed on both sides of the Disaster Emperor, and the insect legs with black fluff were seen flying all over the sky. Within a few seconds, Hei Huo and Su Jie chopped off all the arthropods of the Disaster Emperor!
With a loud bang, the Disaster Emperor's bulky body lost the support of its feet. The huge and bulky insect-shaped lower body collapsed on the ground and struggled, but could not move. The Protoss Cannon was interrupted again.
The roar of the Disaster King was filled with fear. It waved its bloody arms and swung them continuously at Beichen. However, Beichen seized the opportunity again and stabbed Xiang Ying into the thick muscles of its arms. Using this as a fulcrum, he climbed to its shoulders, grabbed a tuft of hair on the back of its head, lifted Xiang Ying and pried it towards a white crystal!
Got the last piece!!
But just when Beichen was delighted, the shadow of the giant palm of the Disaster Emperor fell on him. Beichen protected his head with his left hand, but was still dizzy from the palm. He only remembered holding Xiangying and the white crystal, and fell off the Disaster Emperor.
Su Jie, who was nearby, changed his expression and rushed forward, caught Beichen's body in his arms, took out the white crystal from her hand, and threw it onto the platform again!
“Woo—”
Beichen seemed to have fainted for a few seconds before she struggled to get up from Su Jie's arms. Fortunately, the Emperor of Disaster's hands had been severely injured, otherwise, who knows if she would have been turned into a meat paste by this blow.
The Black Disaster on one side was wandering around, fighting with the Disaster Emperor who was obviously exhausted. Beichen also stepped forward and together with Sujie, slowly weakened its strength, waiting for the signal from the platform.
Not long after, a strange sound of metal falling to the ground was heard from the platform. Beichen turned around and found that Rui had fallen to the ground, and Yaye in his hand had turned back into human form.
Seeing Beichen distracted, Yaye jumped down from the platform with a frown, took a step forward, and hooked the black sickle in his hand forward to block the Disaster King's sneak attack with his giant fist.
"Don't be distracted! He can't use me anymore. I was just bitten by the backlash of the Fallen Dark Seed's power."
"I don't need you... Does that mean the moon poison is gone?!"
"That's right, kill it!"
"good!!"
Beichen Qing shouted and jumped high under the cover of Heihuo and Sujie. The petite figure avoided the sweep of the giant fist, and the long sword, which seemed like an extension of her arm, pierced straight into the chest of the Disaster Emperor!
The Disaster Emperor screamed in pain and stretched out his hands to grab Beichen, but Beichen used Xiangying as a fulcrum to bend his body and jump, using the giant arm as a foothold to jump onto the Disaster Emperor's back again. Then she actually let go of her hands that maintained her balance and stretched them outwards - Heihuo and Sujie immediately responded to this small action that required a lot of cooperation to understand, and turned into weapons and appeared in Beichen's hands!
The moment he lost his balance and fell, Beichen swung the claws in his hand and stabbed them into the flesh of the Disaster Emperor's back. Then he climbed up with all his strength, jumped up, and fiercely twisted his hands behind his back like a swallow's tail. In an instant, two streams of blood spurted out from the Disaster Emperor's neck like fountains!
"Towards the Shadow!!"
"yes!"
The humanoid Xiang Ying immediately grabbed the hair on the Disaster Emperor's chest and climbed back to Beichen's hands. Finally, Beichen, wearing a claw on the back of his hand and holding a long sword in his hand, pierced the Disaster Emperor's neck with seven sharp blades, severing the last trace of its vitality and even silencing its scream!
Finally...victory.
The huge body fell down with a roar. Beichen wanted to pull the weapon out from the neck of the corpse, but because he used too much force, he and the weapon rolled off the corpse.
As Rui slowly awoke from the platform, he found Beichen lying in Xiangying's arms, his back facing upwards, bathed in the glow of the Great Recovery Spirit Crystal. Heihuo, Sujie, and Yaye stood nearby, watching the burnt spots on Beichen's back slowly fade.
He laughed dumbly: When did those two heartless guys, Black Disaster and Su Jie, start looking at people with such expressions? I'd better seize the opportunity and laugh at them mercilessly. This is guaranteed to be a good excuse to make them change their attitude.
After stretching his limbs, the lightness and strength he had as a human returned to him. He adjusted his breathing, jumped off the platform, and came to the crowd.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. I will never forget your kindness this time."
Unusually, he put away his sunny smile and said this while looking at the people in front of him with a serious expression that was a bit sharp.
"You're welcome."
Beichen's voice came from Xiang Ying's arms, but she didn't turn to look at him.
"If you don't try so hard to survive, it won't help no matter how hard we try, right?"
Rui was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and nodded vigorously.
For a moment, Rui even thought that if he didn't have the identity of a prince, it might be a pleasure to travel around this vast, mysterious and beautiful world with these people forever.
However, fantasy is just fantasy. A few seconds after this thought appeared, he immediately suppressed it back into his heart.
Then he raised his hand, looked at the ring on his hand, pursed his lips, and revealed a smile full of fighting spirit.
Darim, it's time to settle the old scores.
