[Abyss Essence: 926 → 1025]
Li Wei turned the sword and neatly put the soft sword back into her belt.
The octopus monster whose core was split in two let out a wail and walked away unsteadily.
Facing the three stunned people around her, she smiled crookedly with an unfathomable expression.
"You...you are...'Little Bodhisattva in Black'?"
Xiao Fu supported the staggering Ayang, tears still on her face, her voice trembling with a hint of uncertainty as if she had survived a disaster.
puff--!
Li Wei could no longer maintain her masterful demeanor and almost suffocated.
She forced herself to suppress the throbbing veins on her forehead and cursed the person who came up with this nickname at least eight hundred times in her heart.
Fortunately, she was quite generous and decided not to argue with the young lady.
"Are you three going out on your own?"
The investigator who had just given himself a powerful painkiller injection in his arm had now stood up.
He reached his big hand under the shoulder armor and fiddled with it. With a few light "clicks", the heavy full-body armor separated from several key points on his body and fell off by itself.
After wearing only a dark gray close-fitting combat uniform, his entire burden suddenly lightened a lot and his movements became much more flexible.
Hearing Li Wei's question, the investigator nodded firmly, "Leave it to me, I'll take them out!"
"And..." The investigator turned to Li Wei and saluted solemnly, "Thank you for saving my life!"
Li Wei waved her hand, somewhat unused to such a formal thank you.
She glanced at the girl who was busy treating her boyfriend's wound, then looked at Ayang, who had a pale face but was still trying hard to force a smile to comfort his girlfriend, and frowned slightly.
"It's a small matter." She grinned, trying to be as casual as possible. "I just hate tragedy."
Before she finished her words, she disappeared at the end of the supermarket shelf like a ghost, leaving only a faint floral scent.
-----------------
The eighth level of the rift, Min Zimo’s team.
"Get ready!" Min Zimo's steady and solemn voice reached every team member's ears clearly. "The bracelet is about to vibrate, take turns counting! Ma Tao, Sun Yufei, I will go first, the rest of you hold on!"
"Yes!" All the team members obeyed the order.
After a few breaths.
Buzz——
Everyone's order bracelets vibrated at the same time.
In front of everyone, the attack of the abyss monster seemed to never stop, and the occasional tentacles made everyone dare not be distracted at all.
“Drink—!”
The swordsman and shield fighter at the front roared, holding his shield tightly against the monsters, veins bulging on his forehead.
The other swordsman and shieldman beside him, as well as the short-sword soldiers supporting him on both wings, were also under tremendous pressure, creating a moment of stability for the rear.
Min Zimo and two other team members holding spears stood at the back of the formation and were the first to concentrate.
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine!"
The three of them finished counting almost at the same time, their voices were loud and clear, and the order was exactly the same.
The vibration on my wrist stopped abruptly.
【fine! 】
Min Zimo felt a little relieved, but without delaying for a moment, he raised the silver-gray spear in his hand, leaped up like a cheetah, and rushed into the group of monsters again.
In an instant, the gun body drew a series of swift afterimages in the dim light, spun at high speed, and the energy brought by the tip of the gun tore through the air, clearing out a brief safe area.
"Hurry! It's your turn!" Min Zimo shouted harshly.
The other seven team members in the store immediately began counting.
"One, two, three... nine!"
"One...nine!"
The six team members completed the task successfully and the bracelets stopped vibrating one after another.
Just as they breathed a sigh of relief, they heard a muffled cry of pain.
Liu Zhao, the team member who had a serious abdominal injury and had previously coughed up blood, suddenly stopped talking after counting to "eight" and his face suddenly turned as pale as paper.
"Oh no!" he cried out, cold sweat instantly breaking out on his forehead, "I... I missed seven!"
Before he finished speaking, the order bracelet on his left wrist suddenly shrank!
"Ugh!"
The intense tightening sensation made him groan in pain, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and his mind was in a trance.
"Hold the line!"
Min Zimo shouted loudly and swept his gun across, smashing several low-level monsters that tried to take the opportunity to rush in into meat paste. At the same time, he retreated quickly and returned to the formation, quickly filling the defense gap caused by Liu Zhao's distraction.
"Don't panic! Count again!" Min Zimo's voice was like a cold hammer, slamming heavily into Liu Zhao's nearly collapsed heart. "Concentrate, start from the beginning! Count them one by one!"
Liu Zhao's teeth were chattering and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead.
He forced himself to concentrate and spoke again: "One, two, three, four, five... eight, nine!"
Wrong again!
"Ah! Why...why is this happening!" he roared, his voice full of despair.
"Come again!" Min Zimo's voice was still calm, without a trace of ripples, but his hand holding the gun tightened a little.
"One, two... what about three? What comes after three... damn it!! I... I can't count anymore!!! I can't do it, Captain!"
For several times in a row, Liu Zhao made mistakes on different numbers, either missing them altogether or reversing the order.
His body was trembling slightly, his breathing was rapid, and his face was full of pain and helplessness.
The other team members saw this and were extremely anxious, but they could do nothing to help.
They could only fight desperately to resist the increasingly ferocious attacks of the abyss monster, and everyone's heart was heavy.
