Chapter 591: Strange Arises, Waiting for the Sword to Come Out
Inside the building, the confrontation between Xu Chan's team and Wu Qi is still going on. With their rich experience, they have already figured out a set of effective tactics to fight against this thing.
Xu Chan divided the people into two groups. He and the two captains Wang Lu were responsible for the front and the left and right directions, while the two pioneer team members in the back were mainly responsible for using throwing tools to contain and fill in the gaps.
Whenever Wu Qi wanted to break through in a certain direction, Lu and Wang would raise the special shields they had just sent from behind and rush forward, knocking him down like a cannonball.
This approach does not require much technical content, it is purely about speed.
Although Wu Qi is very flexible, his size means he cannot move faster than them over short distances. Even though he is much larger than anyone present, the teams cooperate with each other. When one person goes up, the others will harass and restrain him from other places.
Every time it just accelerated, it was forced to stop by them. At this time, short spears with locks or large nets would be thrown from behind, forcing it to retreat or dodge.
Xu Chan played a key role here. He shared at least 60% of the pressure by himself and suppressed Wu Qi firmly there. Especially when Wu Qi's spiritual power was venting wildly and other people were greatly affected, he would hold on alone until this wave of outburst passed.
They had previously received an order from the Ministry of Defense, requiring them to force Wu Qi out of the building and to the open space at the rear. They did not know what the real intention of doing so was, but since this was an order from above, they would do their best to carry it out.
However, they will not act blindly. After all, they are experienced people who know that if they want to achieve their goals, they cannot be impatient, but must take it step by step.
All they have to do now is to block Wu Qi's outward direction, prevent him from passing through here, and continue to suppress his movement space. After a long time, even without them driving him away, Wu Qi will choose to break through from that only way.
Although this is time-consuming, there is no specific time limit given to them. I believe that as long as it does not exceed the period of time when the mother shrimp splits, it will be fine. Wu Qi will definitely not be able to hold on until that time.
Their inference was not wrong at all. Under the continued pressure, Wu Qi suffered more and more injuries on his body and his movements became increasingly restricted.
It gradually felt that it could not move freely, so it had no choice but to retreat to the rear. After knocking down one wall after another, it finally crashed out from the back of the building and came out.
At this moment, from this position, you can see the huge rotating Ferris wheel standing there, and further away is the open sea with rolling waves.
Xu Chan and his five companions followed closely behind. They maintained their previous formation and landed in different positions, still blocking the direction of outward breakthrough.
At this time, it would be almost impossible for Wu Qi to break out of their encirclement unless he chose to jump into the sea.
However, the Ministry of Defense had already known from Andun's analysis that although Wu Qi could enter the sea, he had no combat power in the sea water. Instead, he might be besieged by the modified aquatic creatures deployed by the Mosasaur Company, so he would not choose to do so.
Wu Qi would not do so, because the board of directors ordered it not to leave, but to try its best to kill these five people.
At the bottom of the shaft, Director Yingwei was still standing there, looking upwards with a strange look, half of his face was illuminated by the light from above, while the other half was obscured by darkness.
Behind him, the shadow kept swaying on the wall, as if it was vaguely impatient.
But he knew that the timing was still a little off.
Active consciousness has its own energy storage organs, and high-energy nutrients only help activate it. When it enters combat mode, it will activate the energy stored in normal times.
According to the Ferris Wheel Company's estimates, even under heavy consumption, Wu Qi can probably fight continuously for two days, so up to now, the combat effectiveness of this active consciousness has not been reduced much.
But he doesn't need to wait until that time. What he needs is for those people outside to help him consume Wu Qi's spiritual power.
Active consciousness bodies are particularly solid in spirit, especially those who are good at prediction like Wu Qi. They will have early warning of situations that are harmful to themselves and are not easy to invade. Even if they can be occupied by force, they will encounter severe resistance and rejection.
Otherwise, he would have gone in and robbed Wu Qi while he was staying in the company. Since he couldn't do that, he had no choice but to push Wu Qi out to fight.
Under such circumstances, Wu Qi's entire body functions entered combat mode, his predictive ability no longer existed, and his mental strength was bound to continue to be consumed.
According to his estimation, he could last about thirty to forty minutes at high intensity, and when he was at his weakest, it would be time for him to attack.
At this moment, the airship Chen Chuan was riding on had arrived right above the Ferris wheel. He looked at the time, it was 11:40.
As the last person to take action, you need to wait for a suitable opportunity.
At this time, no one came to urge him. Since it was handed over to him, he trusted him completely and would not do it regardless of any doubts or urgings.
The power that Hongfu can transmit is mainly field and spiritual power, but if the power transmitted is too great, the opponent will notice it in advance.
In fact, the power that can be transmitted through the field is limited, but even if it is only a part of it, it is already a very huge force. If his own foundation is not sufficient, he will not be able to withstand it, let alone exert it.
Ultimately, his strength is still the fundamental basis of this attack.
He looked down from above. Although he couldn't see the specific situation due to the fog, he was able to judge the situation below through the weak spiritual power coming over.
Now he was sure that his teammates had successfully driven Wu Qi out of the building, thus completing the prerequisite.
It's up to him next.
According to the plan, he needed to act at the moment when that existence invaded the active consciousness. At that time, the esoteric ritual below would also be activated at the same time to help him complete this attack.
This height is about three kilometers above the ground. If you jump down directly and fall normally, it may take about half a minute to approach the target, and you will miss the best opportunity.
Although he could jump downward to speed up his descent, that alone was not enough.
But fortunately, he still has one condition to borrow.
There are still many cracks around at this moment. He had obtained Chen Bitong's Flying Dragon Fist before. This fist power has been improved by Chen Bitong, and it also includes methods on how to shuttle through the cracks.
To accomplish this, he first needed a stable and formed crack, as well as sufficiently strong and unique spiritual power. He could not do it alone, but at this moment he had Hongfu's help, and could use the latter's power to complete this action.
This way, not only can you suddenly cross a very long distance, but you can also appear close to the enemy in a more sudden way.
He felt it at this moment. Judging from the faint spiritual power transmitted from below, the Ferris wheel still had some energy left in its active consciousness, and it was not yet time for that existence to take formal action.
So we need to wait a little longer.
Time passed slowly, and nearly twenty minutes had passed. The battle under the Ferris wheel became more and more intense. Wu Qi's spirit was declining at a very obvious rate under the heavy release.
But it had to do so, because without the deterrence and assistance of spiritual power, these people's attacks would be more ferocious and smoother, and it would not be able to hold on, so it could only hold on.
Inside the Defense Department's command center, a voice from the sentry tower rang out: "An Shield is sending a warning. Wu Qi's condition has deteriorated significantly, and the bio-field has been greatly weakened. Accidents may occur at any time. Please be prepared..."
Commissioner Liang's expression became extremely serious, knowing that the opportunity he had been waiting for was about to arrive.
He raised his wrist to check the time: 11:58.
Then he silently looked at the airship hovering in the light curtain.
To be fair, the expectations of so many departments and such a heavy responsibility on one's shoulders are undoubtedly a huge pressure for anyone, and even a fighter cannot remain indifferent.
If the psychological burden is heavy, it will greatly affect your performance.
Now it depends on whether this one can bear it all and fulfil the expectations they have placed on him.
On the airship, Chen Chuan stood there with his sword in hand, concentrating on sensing the movements below.
At this moment, he heard the prompt from the command center, and he also felt that the spiritual power of the active consciousness was gradually weakening.
At this time, he glanced at the second self, and there were gradually signs of faint emptiness on it, which meant that the power of that existence was dissipating outwards and it was also ready to take action.
So he raised the Xuejun Sword and placed it horizontally in front of him, then moved the scabbard away and let it fall on the deck, then fixed his eyes on the snow-white blade.
This should be the strongest opponent he has encountered so far, and he needs to gather all his strength.
As if sensing his will, the blade began to vibrate in a buzzing manner, and wisps of light mist emanated from the blade, and the red line on the back of the blade became extremely crimson.
At this time, strong winds blew, blowing open his military coat and causing his scarf to flutter backwards.
He took a deep breath, and with a bang, white mist rose from his body.
Just as he did this, Hong Fu, who was standing behind him, suddenly turned into a red light, instantly attached to his body, and turned into a wisp of red smoke that surrounded the white mist.
At the same time, facing the advance of Xu Chan and others, Wu Qi once again burst out with strong mental pressure.
But this time, everyone present could feel that the impact was not as unbearable as before, and could even be described as powerless.
Everyone was cheered up. Just when they wanted to rush forward again, the ground suddenly shook violently, making them almost unstable. They all retreated. Then they saw a large shadow emerging from the ground, covering Wu Qi like a tide, and wrapping him tightly in just a moment.
Almost at the same time, an invisible infectious force spread outward, and the surrounding world seemed to turn into black and white.
At this moment, within dozens of kilometers of the Ferris Wheel Building, an indescribable feeling of oppression and terror instantly spread, and the slowly rotating Ferris wheel also changed, as if it suddenly turned into a huge vortex crack, and a dazzling and blazing light emanated from it.
On the airship, Chen Chuan looked down, his eyes seemed to penetrate the heavy fog and reach the center. He held a knife in his hand, lowered his center of gravity, then stepped on his feet and jumped down.
