Chapter 171 The Wonderful Brother Qiang
Xu Qingqiang simply didn't bother pretending to be polite. Instead, he said even more arrogantly to the ponytailed saint girl in front of him, "No one wants to go in. We are here to find the Holy Lord. Where is he?"
The Saint was probably a seven-year-old girl, no taller than 130cm, only reaching Xu Qingqiang's waist. This was probably the first time she'd been disrespected like this. Her face flushed with anger: "What's your name? You've trespassed into this important area, and you're being rude to me. I'm going to have you expelled!"
"How adorable!" Xu Qingqiang bared his fangs, his magic pattern peeking out from his collar. The intense and violent dark power crushed the little Saint without mercy. When the little Saint's face changed and she trembled with fear, he squatted down to look at her level, smiling with a mouthful of sharp teeth, "Where are the Holy Lord and the Holy Guards, Lady Saint?"
This saint is of course also a fourth-level challenger. Dou Lin is also a fourth-level challenger, so she is of course no exception.
But the saint who only relies on training and has no practical experience at such a young age, even if her strength is much higher, is no match for a "criminal" who walked out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
The extremely vicious "criminals" do have the ability to double deter any weak life.
The little saint girl suddenly sat down on the ground with weak legs.
She was so frightened that she couldn't even speak.
The driver Wang standing by obviously didn't expect that someone would be so arrogant and dare to directly threaten the saint. He immediately made his position clear and moved to the side for several meters, putting some distance between him and Xu Qingqiang.
But whether it was Xu Qingqiang's unruly temper or his criminal status, they once again dispelled Captain Wang's already limited doubts. At the same time, he did not forget to persuade him: "You kid don't want to live? This is the Saint, the Saint!"
Xu Qingqiang pinched the little girl's chin and smiled, his pupils turning into ferocious vertical pupils: "She's a Saint only if she's alive, but a corpse if she's dead. There are so many Saints waiting to be replaced, so just change one, right?"
The last sentence Xu Qingqiang asked was directed at another girl who was standing far behind him with a look of fear on her face.
When Xu Qingqiang asked this, the girl obviously started to think about it, and there was a hint of other meaning in her eyes when she looked at the saint.
"Tell me, are the Holy Lord and the Holy Guard out yet? I need to see them for something. Please, Saintess, please let them know."
Xu Qingqiang helped his little daughter up and asked her to walk in front. It was obvious that he was going to kidnap the saint and take her into an important area.
Captain Wang's scalp was about to explode.
He thought this kid was brave enough, but he never thought he was brave to this extent. Isn't this already a tiger?
Who would dare to follow? Dare to threaten the Saint and force her to lead the way. Being driven away is a small matter. I am afraid that they will lose their heads.
"Eh? Aren't you coming?" Pinching the back of the little girl's neck, Xu Qingqiang took two steps forward like holding a cat, then turned back and looked at him with a half-smile.
Captain Wang's head shook like a rattle.
Xu Qingqiang could only bid farewell to his previous guide with regret, but fortunately he now has a new guide.
Walking into the so-called "important place", the feeling is obviously different. Maybe it is the change in mentality brought about by the environment, or maybe it is that the alloy used in the buildings here is indeed better. In short, standing here is like being away from that turbid place, and the air is fresher.
The little saint was completely intimidated by Xu Qingqiang's aura and dared not speak again.
The other girl also had a restless look in her eyes, like a venomous snake. From time to time, she glanced at the little saint, then at Xu Qingqiang, and no one knew what she was expecting.
In this way, they crossed the wide parking lot and walked onto a street covered with cameras. During this time, even the underground city guards passed by, but it was not known whether it was the tense battle situation above or the presence of the two girls that allowed Xu Qingqiang to walk into the building that looked heavily guarded so openly.
Wei Huan: “…”
Talent.
However, when they got here, Wei Huan's vision was no longer able to follow.
There are cameras everywhere, especially in that house, which is a tight network. The Lord of the Evil Eyes looks so weird that it is impossible for him to get through.
It is not certain what Xu Qingqiang will experience in there, but fortunately he has a little dog-headed man with him. At the critical moment, as long as he is called, the undead army that has been waiting here for a long time will be able to come to support him at any time.
Nothing happened for a while, Wei Huan switched his focus to the other two teams, and found that they also had gains.
Instructor Xing didn't know how he did it, but he found the core energy area of the dungeon, which supplies all the electricity for the dungeon. Once it is destroyed, the people in the dungeon will not be able to leave in a short time.
The team led by King Wu strangely joined a ground rescue team, which was walking to the ground to assist the wounded in the beast tide invasion.
In addition, the direct superior of the rescue team that this King Wu is in seems to be the Holy Guard.
Although they are different, everyone relies on their unique abilities to find the key direction and keep approaching the goal.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the basic intelligence Wei Huan provided at the beginning.
Even if the others came to the base of the War Clan and formulated a mission behind enemy lines, it would take a long time just to collect intelligence. If they missed this turmoil, they would probably have missed the best opportunity.
The intelligence provided by Wei Huan directly points to the core members. Once all of them can be captured, the Zhan Clan will disintegrate.
Among them, there are three important core members in the Holy Guard, and they are the people Wei Huan must catch.
It has to be said that talents can shine everywhere.
None of the people sent to his car by the Azure Dragon Legion were mediocre. The reason why they were not shining enough before was simply because they had not reached their areas of expertise. Each of them had the ability to execute orders independently and handle events perfectly.
This observation made Wei Huan feel that his burden was suddenly much lighter.
Finally, the snow beasts on the ground were completely cleared away, and chariots were ordered to go to the broken city wall for repairs.
A group of three tanks drove to the location together. After they stopped, about ten people jumped out from them, including the man with a mustache who had been tracking Wei Huan.
The man with a mustache was a fourth-level gambler: Shadowless. He walked very fast and arrived at the ruins in a flash.
He looked around with his hands on his hips, cursing, "Damn these bastards! They can do this to such a thick wall! Damn Challenge World, they're always causing trouble!"
He kicked a piece of broken alloy away and said, "You know how to collect corpses, but you don't know how to recycle these scrap metals. This forces me to come here to work and move bricks."
He cursed but he still did what he had to do. After moving a few pieces of alloy fragments, he couldn't help but frown: "Do you feel that something is wrong here? It feels very uncomfortable and cold. I'm not talking about the heavy snow. You can feel it carefully. Isn't it very cold? It's like, like..."
By the end, the mustache man seemed to have confirmed his suspicions. "Is it a dark profession? Should I report this to my superiors?"
The man with the mustache is the train commander, and the others follow his lead, so naturally no one can say no.
He felt it again: "Damn, I don't know which dark profession has stayed here. Maybe I should just forget it? Otherwise I'll be accused of making a fuss again."
"Yes, yes, you are right."
"Let's just do our job well. The more we do, the more mistakes we make."
"That's right, good things don't happen to us, so we're assigned to do this manual labor. Damn it, why bother with so much?"
The man with the mustache glanced at the car not far away. As long as he got in the car, he could contact the Holy Guard and report any abnormalities he had noticed.
But the driver was right, the more you do, the more mistakes you make, damn it!
When the mustache man made his decision, the Holy Lord was about to end his video call with the captain of the Holy Guard. He finally said, "I'll leave this place to you. A snow beast has escaped into the dungeon. I must take a look."
The captain of the Holy Guard patted his chest and said, "Don't worry about the ground construction work. I've already taken care of it."
The Holy Lord ended the call with a smile, and the smile disappeared as soon as the screen turned off.
No matter who you are, you will not be able to remain in a good mood when you see the wall you have worked so hard to build being destroyed.
He is very angry now.
This feeling intensified into anger after entering the dungeon.
Because there is a power outage in the dungeon!
The team that was hunting the snow beasts in the dungeon didn't know where they touched, but there were problems with the lines in some places, and many areas fell into darkness.
The darkness is scary.
Because darkness breeds fear and summons monsters from the darkness, sometimes even dark beast lords will suddenly appear from the sky.
Therefore, in the human cities that challenge the world, the lights are on at night, and if the infrastructure does not have much lighting capacity, even vehicles are required to turn on their lights.
In the secondary world, challengers entering the city need to pay part of the tax, which is "keeping the lights on all night."
There was a large-scale power outage in the northeastern area of the underground city. The Holy Lord happened to be walking in this area, and the pitch-black darkness made his already bad mood even worse. He cursed while arranging for the maintenance department to go downstairs.
The Holy Lord's chariot was traveling in the dark passage of the underground city. Although the spiral passage had only six floors, it seemed to lead to the Nine Nether Hell in the darkness.
Suddenly, a row of green lights appeared in the corner of his sight. The Holy Lord's pupils contracted and he looked over intently, only to find that it was just a sign for an emergency passage.
It was a false alarm, but the Holy Lord suddenly felt uneasy. It seemed that at this moment, many unreasonable things suddenly came together, revealing a chilling ominous feeling.
A few days ago, someone suddenly appeared outside their territory. Although they sent people to track him down and finally closed the case on the grounds that the ruins had been refreshed, the bombed area was too large, including the collapsed snow in the surrounding mountains, which did not seem like an outsider who had inadvertently broken in.
Another thing is this beast tide.
It's not that he has never experienced a super beast tide. This territory has also experienced two super beast tides since its establishment. Whether it is the initial stage of the beast tide or the attack on the city wall after the beast tide gathered, there are many differences.
The most important thing was that the city wall collapsed too quickly this time. The king-level snow beast, along with a group of generals, could only barely break through two layers of the city wall before they were slaughtered.
But the first thing that collapsed was the innermost layer of the city wall, which was just an ordinary snow beast. Some people said it was a snow spider and a snow bear, and it seemed that an explosion had occurred.
Thinking back to what I saw on the surveillance video, I always feel like I missed something.
Coupled with the strong sense of uneasiness he felt as he continued to go underground, the Holy Lord finally made a new decision.
"parking!"
He gave orders and the AI butler obeyed them.
Then, under the bewildered gazes of the other crew members, he said, "Go back, back to the temple. And show me all the surveillance footage from all locations during this period."
The Holy Lord's car stopped, and the cars in front and behind also stopped, but the Holy Lord turned around and left without saying a word.
The remaining vehicles waited for a while before receiving the order: "Continue to repair the energy grid."
The Holy Lord was already sitting in his driver's seat, watching the surveillance video that had just been sent to him.
From the beginning of the beast tide, twenty surveillance videos were played simultaneously, but his greatest focus was still on the area of the Beast King and the area of the first inner city wall that was breached.
The city wall was breached very quickly. The first layer took eight minutes, but the second and third layers took only seven minutes in total.
The herds of white snow beasts seemed to have merged into this world. At first, the Holy Lord hardly saw anything unusual.
Until he saw with his own eyes the explosion before the wall collapsed.
It was a green flame, erupting with immense power. And there were more than one, like an engineer laying a mine, meticulously planned to ensure the maximum possible attack power in the shortest possible time, and to guarantee the destruction of the city wall.
When the Holy Lord saw this scene with his own eyes, his heartbeat began to accelerate, and a name bounced in his throat, ready to come out.
The camera began to zoom in as he wished, focusing on the so-called snow spiders.
Finally, he discovered that the backs of these snow spiders were covered with a thick layer of snow. Until an occasional shake, a flash of green light suddenly jumped out as if it burned his eyeballs.
"oops!"
The Holy Lord let out an uncontrollable scream and was extremely panicked.
How could this be a snow spider? Looking closely, it only bears a passing resemblance to one. If it had long, furry legs and black and white spotted fur, it would be a facehugger summoned by the female Earthbeast!
The reason these facehuggers are so white and smooth like jade is simply because they are nothing but bones!!
Looking at it this way, and then looking at those "snow bears" that were hugged by facehuggers and hiding their whereabouts, they are basically violent bears!
It’s so easy to identify the six legs. Was I blind before?
The skeleton face hugger, the zombie violent bear, this is Wei Huan coming!
Wei Huan is here! !
At that moment, the Holy Lord felt as if the sky was falling.
He didn't know how he had offended Wei Huan. Wasn't it because his men accidentally captured the fat man in their car and wanted to take away the fat man's background to seize some power and wealth in Daxia?
Because of this, he lost a stronghold in Daxia and so many people died. Who did he blame?
He thought he was unlucky, but he didn't expect that Daxia would send troops to Sangshu Kingdom and destroy their tribe's stronghold.
Knowing that Wei Huan had come to the fourth-level world, he summoned most of the War Clan members back, and those who couldn't return were ordered to temporarily hide. They had already avoided Wei Huan to this extent...
"Damn it, did I dig up your ancestral grave?"
The Holy Lord was shaking with anger, and at the same time, he felt an extreme sense of fear in his heart.
There is no false reputation under a great name. Wei Huan has become famous all the way here and has slaughtered 100,000 dark beasts in a row. This man's true combat power is not at all in need of being tested by him as the Holy Lord of the War Clan.
This guy, who made him bow down to him, actually came to his base camp. Wasn't he afraid? Wasn't he angry? He couldn't understand it!
No, you have to avoid it first.
In an instant, the Holy Lord had made up his mind. "Regardless of having face or not, the winner is the one who lives freely. After all, this evil star won't stay in the fourth-level world for long. As long as I hide deep enough, he won't stay forever if he can't find me. By then, this world will still be mine."
At that moment, the Holy Lord was about to order the butler to send the car into the "rest space" when he saw his own "nest" in front of him.
This nest is called the Temple here, and it is also the highest power decision-making area of the War Clan. As the core of the War Clan headquarters, the cost of building this area even reached more than half of the entire base.
Now, this safe house, which seemed impregnable and absolutely safe in his heart, appeared before him just when he was full of uneasiness.
And it was so peaceful, so normal, just like every day in the past. Just looking at it made me feel safe enough.
"Well……"
After all, this headquarters is my base. It would be inappropriate for me to suddenly disappear at this critical moment.
What about the rest of the people?
Even if Wei Huan came, he could probably only sneak in and go to the energy zone to do some sneaky things. After all, this was his territory. If he took advantage of the temple's defense, he might be able to play a "chess player" game with Wei Huan's undead.
If he accidentally defeated Wei Huan…even if he only drove away his undead spirit, it would be a huge victory as long as he remained undefeated.
If worst comes to worst, can't you just escape into the "resting space" as soon as possible?
Once such thoughts appear, they are like taking root in my heart and cannot be removed.
The Holy Lord took one last look at the dark place he came from, and the brightly lit and iron-clad temple in front of him. Finally, he could not resist the ambition in his heart to step on Wei Huan to ascend to the throne and achieve fame and success.
"Drive straight in."
"Also, evacuate the Holy Guard from the surface, prepare for battle, and head to the underground energy zone." The Holy Lord paused, then continued, "Tell them that Wei Huan may have arrived and has already entered."
"What? Wei Huan came in?"
"How did you know this, Lord?"
"I was saying there was something fishy about this beast tide. Our city walls are impenetrable. How could a mere beast tide possibly break through the defenses of our Level 5 civilization? It turns out Wei Huan was involved. Now I understand."
"Are you saying that Wei Huan's ghost has already sneaked into our underground city and is hiding in the energy room? Holy Lord, if that's the case, why don't we... blow up the energy room?"
"This is a good idea. When the energy room was first built, it was not located in the residential area. We also have several backup energy sources. Blowing up an energy room and having Wei Huan buried with us is totally worth it."
"That Wei Huan deserves death! If humanity wants to survive this battle of civilizations, they should lie low. It's all because of him that we're becoming increasingly dangerous! In this war of civilizations, only the final victor will have a chance to escape... The tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Wei Huan deserves death!"
The Holy Lord, along with his guards and staff, got out of the car. Just like the elevator that goes directly to the president's office, this parking area also goes directly to the core of the temple, the council hall, the sacrificial hall and his residence after undergoing numerous inspections.
"Welcome back, Holy Lord."
"Great Lord, under your leadership, we have won again. Thank you so much~"
"Welcome back, Holy Lord!"
More than ten young maids came up from the front, then stood on both sides, kneeling to welcome him respectfully. Just like in the past, they offered him fruits and cigarettes, and knelt down to help him change into comfortable clothes.
The Holy Lord refused all pleasure, but the maid's naturally relaxed expression also made his tense shoulders relax.
It seems that this place is safe. Wei Huan’s smelly undead tentacles are unable to penetrate here.
"Where are the Holy Son and Holy Daughter?" The Holy Lord frowned as he glanced around but did not see any familiar figures.
"The Holy Son and Holy Daughter are both in the sacrificial hall, praying for the War Clan. They don't know you've returned. I'll arrange for someone to go and invite you."
"Yes." After taking two steps, the Holy Lord remembered that the Sacrifice Hall was safer than the Council Hall, so he turned another corner and said, "No need, I'll go there by myself."
The sacrificial hall is behind the parliament hall. When it was first built, it was just a trick to fool people.
These guys who have committed countless evil things on Blue Star actually still yearn for faith and hope that their God can forgive them.
Thus, the "God of War" came into being under the guidance of the Holy Lord.
Initially, it was just to provide some spiritual comfort to those who followed him, but it turned out to be unexpectedly useful, and thus the "War Clan" was born.
The God of War is, of course, not a god of war in the traditional sense, but rather the "God of Challenge" and the "God of War". He is a god who captures an entire civilization into this vast world, can grant challengers countless superpowers, and has endless great power.
In other words, what they believe in is challenging the world.
There is a huge statue in the sacrificial hall. It is in the form of a human male, more than a hundred meters tall, with half of its body hidden in the depths of darkness. Looking up, one can only see the oppressive feeling constantly coming from the depths of darkness.
The terrifying deterrent force was as if there really was a god looking down.
It has a great shocking effect on ordinary people who are ignorant.
When the Holy Lord walked into the sacrificial hall, he saw the Holy Son and Holy Daughter standing on the altar, looking up.
The boys and girls around them are the substitutes for the Holy Son or Holy Daughter, and they are also the playmates of the real Holy Son or Holy Daughter, or their servants.
The reason why he established titles like Holy Son and Holy Daughter was because he discovered that children who could not return to Blue Star would be recognized by the Challenge World from the moment they were born and would possess extraordinary powers from the very beginning.
These children are only six or seven years old, but they already possess the power of the fourth level. It is hard to imagine how strong they will be when they grow up.
So from then on, he went from searching for similar children to deliberately creating this situation for children... For example, he would kill their parents in a harsh environment, challenging the world to have mercy on the poor little lives, and keep them in his own world.
Up to now, the Holy Lord has trained more than a thousand similar children, each of whom has shown amazing potential.
He has imagined more than once how powerful the War Clan will be ten years from now.
A legion that is completely loyal to him and possesses the most powerful combat capability might even be able to pull out Daxia's beard.
Looking at these innocent children, he seemed to see his own future, and his fear of Wei Huan was temporarily thrown behind him.
A divine, kind smile naturally appeared on his face. "Mia, Leica, we can stop praying. I have something to tell you."
The two genuine saints in the middle were called, but at the same time, all four of them turned around, revealing the same panicked faces.
