Chapter 219 The first adventure is coming!
Wei Huan was already thinking about escaping.
Then he found that the crack looked familiar. It seemed that this was the huge building that slanted into the ground under their feet.
"Did you find anything?" Jacques, who had looked around, noticed something unusual on Wei Huan's face. He followed Wei Huan's gaze to the ceiling and seemed to notice something different.
Then Agris also raised his head: "You said the assessment world is round, so this is our map?"
Captain Fang William continued to heal the saplings. Although he didn't know if this would be effective, he didn't stop. He just distractedly reminded: "The map wouldn't appear for no reason. This should be a clear clue."
Wei Huan pointed at both ends and said, "So, these two sides are crucial."
"You mean those two giants?"
"I'm sure we didn't see them when we were exploring before, but in the absence of any clues, it's worth going back and taking a look."
"I think so too, but how do we leave here?"
"The sky is about to break..."
"Crack!" As Jacques finished his last words, a large section of the sky collapsed again, and the number of forked cracks was increasing. Some small black stones fell down with a rustling sound.
"This place is going to collapse."
"If it collapses, we'll get out."
"Are you sure we can get out alive?"
"There are four of us together. If we can't survive even if we try together, we are doomed to die in this trial."
"I, I can also contribute a little bit of strength." Jones said timidly.
Fang William said, "Also, I have reason to believe that this sapling is crucial. If it is a reward, we must keep it alive during the collapse. If protecting it is part of the assessment, then it must be kept alive even more."
"Tsk!" Agris reminded, "And those scattered people, I didn't expect them to die again just after I saved them."
"I'll do it!"
As Wei Huan was speaking, a portal appeared behind him. With a "whoosh", Dianma, who was over 320 meters tall, walked out of the portal.
The huge body was like a giant umbrella covering their heads, and its eight long legs pierced deeply into the ground.
Then a large number of facehuggers and earthbeasts poured out from its abdominal cavity. They were organized in an orderly manner like a construction team and wrapped around Dianma's body.
In the blink of an eye, a huge and majestic bone fortress was built.
The vision darkened.
Wei Huan and his men were protected under the Bone Fortress.
"What a cool ability." Agris praised, and then said, "I also have some defensive abilities. Although not as strong as yours, it can add some buffering power."
As he said this, blood mist emerged from Agris' body again, quickly filling all the gaps in the bone fortress.
Then the blood mist quickly thickened and turned into a gelatinous filler, just like filling cement in steel and iron bones, further strengthening this bone fortress.
Jacques was also busy here. He tried to dig a shelter downwards.
"Maybe it's safer deep underground...it's so hard." Jacques said in surprise after digging only one meter down.
His words attracted everyone's attention, and soon everyone discovered that the ground was protected by magic patterns, and they could not dig any further.
Argyris was confused: "Should we dig deeper? Wouldn't that mean we'll be buried alive?"
Jacques said: "We will be buried alive no matter where we are. We need to survive the first wave before we can find a solution later."
"Wait a minute, let me sort this out..." Agris pointed at the sapling that Captain Fang was continuously purifying. "This place is about to collapse. We have to protect the sapling. So we have to take an unknown amount of damage? So we have to dig a hole for ourselves?"
Jacques nodded.
Agris said: "Who of you can guarantee that this is correct? What if we are crushed..."
But before Agris could say anything else, Wei Huan said, "It took us a long time to get here. We can't escape. The saplings are telling us that we must stay here."
Then Wei Huan looked at Jones and said, "Help us gather these people in."
Jones nodded and went to carry out Wei Huan's order without saying a word.
Jones arrived outside the Bone Fortress, summoned his snow ape, climbed all the way to the highest point of the Bone Fortress, and waved his arms continuously to guide the challengers to come for shelter.
Gradually, the scattered people gathered together again.
During this time, Wei Huan and the other three had been discussing countermeasures, but Agris remained puzzled, prompting Captain Fang to speak up. "I'm sure everyone has seen equipment above platinum. Judging from the suffixes, the stars and Titans are more like divine forces on our side. Therefore, a natural assessment that may be related to the Titans, I don't believe its original intention is to eliminate all of us."
Don't forget that the core of challenging the world is growth and confrontation, not deliberately killing humans.
If we cooperate well, there should be no problem."
Argyris sighed. "Alright, I know everything. I just wanted to remind you, is there any other way? For example, if you can't dig down, can you dig up?"
Wei Huan raised his eyebrows and looked at Captain Fang...
"Bang!"
Large pieces of black stone fell down and hit the bone fortress, leaving a white mark on the bone fortress, and then bounced back far away.
This was just the beginning. The sky seemed to collapse, and more rocks of all sizes fell down.
Jones ran back holding his head, his snow ape screaming behind him, a large patch of hair on his back fell off and blood was flowing.
Wei Huan took a quick look and found that someone had not arrived yet. It was the Runren named Denton.
"Bang, bang, bang!" More rocks fell and the ground shook.
Wei Huan decided not to wait any longer and completely closed the entrance and exit gates, making the Bone Fortress even more solid.
However, Wei Huan was not very confident that the bone fortress with only flesh and blood could withstand the pressure that stretched for hundreds of kilometers.
"Everyone, use your skills, otherwise we will die here together!" Someone shouted at the necessary moment.
The panicked crowd finally reacted.
There are 14 people in total, with druids being the most numerous, because this assessment exudes the power of nature, making people imagine a druid training ground.
A druid transformed into a treeman, rooted himself in the soil, and then said, "Help me."
The other four druids used the power of nature without saying much. The treeman druid gained energy, and its branches began to grow wildly. In a blink of an eye, they grew to a hundred meters high. The fluffy canopy filled the space inside the bone fortress, giving them further buffering.
This form obviously consumes more energy. No one, including the four druids, can move anymore. After sitting cross-legged, they continue to output the power of nature.
The remaining few people, whose sequences could not help, were not idle either. They mobilized their energy, and once the Bone Fortress collapsed, they would use their abilities to smash the boulders as much as possible.
But before that, Jacques had already raised his pistol towards the sky.
As his eyes turned golden, his finger pulled the trigger of the pistol. With a "bang", the bullet flew out of the chamber and disappeared without a trace the next second.
Immediately afterwards, a loud "boom" was heard from afar.
Jacques used his abilities to send bullets directly outside to break up some falling rocks that might cause damage to the Bone Fortress.
So cool!
Wei Huan gave him another look.
Immediately following.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
For a moment, all that could be heard was Jacques's gunshot and the doomsday-like collapse of the sky and earth outside.
In fact, the collapse was faster than expected. In less than a minute, Jacques' face suddenly changed drastically and he said, "No!"
As his words fell, the whole world seemed to darken, and then the Bone Fortress made a crackling sound, like a lit firecracker, shattering all the way down.
"Hey!"
Wei Huan felt a little bit of his mother's pain and tension from this cry.
But in the end, even a giant like Dian Ma could not withstand the pressure of falling rocks from hundreds of kilometers away, and it completely collapsed and returned to the tomb.
Without the protection of the Bone Fortress, everyone realized how terrifying this huge rock was. It felt like the entire planet was pressing down on it.
The so-called protection provided by the tree man did not play any defensive role at all and collapsed directly.
Darkness looms.
The terrifying power of nature is chilling.
"ah!"
“Can’t stop it!”
"I regret it, why did I come here?!"
Screams rang out everywhere, all of them were roars of unwillingness.
In the panic, no one noticed that Wei Huan and the other four were the strongest. Although their faces were tense, there was no despair in their eyes.
At this point, it is impossible that they have not considered the backup plan.
After all, no matter how thick it is, it is nothing more than some pure physical damage without the power of laws. Human beings have evolved to the point where they cannot be killed by missiles. This is far from a desperate situation.
The reason why that group of people were in a panic was that they didn't know how strong they were now.
Just before the boundless boulder was about to fall on my head, a loud clang sounded beside my ears.
A flash of golden light swept across, and the boulder was actually blocked three meters away.
Wei Huan turned to look at Captain Fang with a serious expression, and then looked at the golden light.
This is Captain Fang’s most terrifying move - [Invincible Aura].
A skill with rule-based capabilities that can ignore any attacks within ten seconds.
No one can resist this move, not to mention the huge and endless falling rocks. Falling rocks have no power of any laws and can be easily stopped by the invincible halo!
But it only lasts ten seconds.
"What are you still yelling about?" Agris rolled his eyes at the frightened people and ordered, "Attack upwards and smash these stones. The harder you push, the better."
Although some people didn't understand for a moment, Agris's prestige made them attack with all their strength without thinking.
The master of forbidden spells swung a fire from his hand, which passed through the invincible halo and landed on the boulder. In an instant, a huge charred crack appeared on the boulder, and the depth of the crack was as if a mountain had been split off.
After seeing how big the crack he created was, the forbidden spell mage seemed to realize that the falling rocks above his head were not as scary as he had imagined.
"Hurry up, long-range! We can split it!" The Forbidden Spell Master shouted excitedly, and spells flew out one after another with his left and right hands.
The others didn't understand, but at this time, when someone told them to do it, they just did it. There were also hunters shooting arrows. Although the damage was not as great as shooting tofu, it was true that these falling rocks were not as hard as imagined.
Suddenly, there were gunshots and the sound of magic spells. Warriors swung their swords and chopped forward. Druids transformed into bear form and used their bodies to hit the boulders.
Everyone thought they could escape by doing this.
Of course it's impossible, it's not that simple.
Captain Fang's invincibility halo has a time limit, and ten seconds is really limited in what he can do. Besides, although these Sequence Five can cause long cracks in the boulders with one blow, the limit is only a few hundred meters. But who knows if the fallen rocks are more than two hundred kilometers thick?
So the excited people didn't notice the indifferent expressions of the four strong men behind them, and Wei Huan summoned the puppy-headed man, and the puppy-headed man swallowed up the pieces of gravel, big and small, one by one, with "Ah Wu Ah Wu" sounds before they even fell.
Of course, some people quickly realized what was happening, but this only made them fight more happily.
Some people even wanted to leave the range of the invincible aura and go outside, but this time they were stopped by Jacques.
It was also at this time that Captain Fang's invincible aura disappeared.
Ten seconds are up.
The boundless boulder falling from the sky was like a brick being knocked down, and with a bang, it stuck tightly to the ground.
However, they dug out an area in the space they were in in the shortest time that could accommodate them standing.
"It's done!"
When everyone confirmed that they were really alive, they all showed excited expressions at the same time.
Wei Huan also breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone celebrated briefly, then fell silent and looked at the four people here.
Surviving the falling rocks was only the first step; leaving was the second. And once out, how would one proceed with the subsequent assessments? No one knew if there would be a third or fourth step...
In the unknown future, no one knows where the danger lies, but subconsciously, everyone here knows that as long as they follow these four people closely, they can survive.
Wei Huan felt those admiring and trusting gazes. Even though he was now accustomed to such gazes falling on him, at this moment, when he looked at Captain Fang, Jacques, and Agris on his left and right, there was always something different, which made him feel a little excited.
"Wei Huan, I'm going to trouble you next." Captain Fang looked at Wei Huan.
Wei Huan nodded, it was indeed the most suitable person to leave the next matter to him.
As he thought about it, a portal appeared behind him and he summoned out facehuggers one by one.
The white facehugger is half a meter in size, with a white bony shell, eight legs on each side, and two small claws near its head. It looks like a crab walking upright.
After they came out, they climbed up along the crack, then found a large crack and drilled into it and never came out again.
Facehuggers kept coming out of the portal and disappearing into the cracks. Occasionally, some ghost crows flew out and cawed above Wei Huan's head from time to time.
After waiting like this for about ten minutes, someone said anxiously, "Colonel Wei, I can help."
Wei Huan looked at him and nodded.
Jones finally realized what was happening and immediately jumped up: "I'm going too."
Wei Huan also nodded.
After two people spoke up, the others felt it was no longer appropriate to sit there idly, so they all stood up and left.
Of the 14 people who had left, only four of them were left. They looked at each other and immediately came up with an idea.
Wei Huan said, "Jacques and I are here to protect Captain Fang."
Captain Fang nodded: "This sapling is the most special item in this assessment, and it must also be the most crucial."
Agris touched his nose and said, "Then I'll go see how the project is going."
Agris flew out along the crack and arrived at another space about a hundred meters away.
This should have been a complete rockfall area, but in just a short while, a spiral upward passage was dug out.
The passage was two meters long and wide. Agris flew upwards for more than a minute and arrived at the end of the passage, but the length of the passage was more than three thousand meters.
The facehuggers were simply the best engineering team in the world. They were well-organized and hardworking. In the short time that Argyris was watching, they had dug more than ten meters forward.
In comparison, the challengers, whose individual strength is far greater than that of the facehugger, have nothing to do but act as hammers in the front, helping the facehugger to loosen the stones in advance and reduce their time for excavation.
Agris used her ability, and the blood mist turned into a pair of giant hands under her control. She grabbed left and right, and an area of 100 meters in front was cleared. She grabbed left and right again, and another area of 100 meters was dug out.
Just one move can reveal the difference between an absolute strong man and an ordinary strong man.
The project of digging upwards to escape was in another place, not far from where Wei Huan was. At first, there was some sound coming from there, but now no sound could be heard at all.
Captain Fang's halo was emitting a hazy golden light, illuminating the area of less than 200 square meters. If you moved a little further away, you couldn't see anything. There was a strange and oppressive feeling as if you had fallen into the deep sea.
None of the three men spoke. They all sat cross-legged as if they were resting their eyes. Wei Huan used the facehugger to make a low-key chair this time and lay down on it as if he was asleep. However, facehuggers kept running out of the portal behind him, so he knew that he was not asleep.
However, during this period, Jacques got up twice, Agris came back once, but Wei Huan did not move at all.
"Asleep?" Agris was a little surprised and asked Jacques in a low voice.
Jacques also whispered: "This posture has not been used for a long time, maybe in the professional temple."
"Can I still control the undead in the Occupational Temple?"
Jacques shook his head in confusion: "I don't know, but don't disturb him."
"I know."
Captain Fang came to his senses, heard the conversation between the two men, and went to see Wei Huan.
I don't know when the white bone seat at the beginning turned into a recliner, which looks very comfortable. However, the excavation work over there has never stopped. I don't know how they did it.
Captain Fang smiled and retracted his gaze. Just as he was about to close his eyes again, his pupils suddenly shrank. His sight fell on the sapling and he opened his eyes wide in surprise.
"One, two, three..." He counted again, and sure enough, the sapling with only 12 leaves was missing a leaf, but it was too obvious for him to have made a mistake.
Captain Fang's abnormality immediately attracted the attention of the other two.
Agris casually asked, "What happened to Captain Fang?"
Captain Fang said without replying, "Come and take a look."
"A leaf is missing?"
"Nothing on the ground?"
"Did it disappear suddenly?"
"Ah! Look!"
Before they could find out the truth, right in front of the three people, another leaf shook and spontaneously fell from the sapling, then turned into a green light and disappeared.
Agris's eyes were sharp, and he pointed his finger in the direction where the green light was drifting, and finally landed on Wei Huan: "Ah, he, he, he, what did he do?"
"Keep your voice down." Captain Fang realized something and interrupted Agris's noisy chatter immediately.
Jacques said, "Did he learn something from this sapling?"
"Tsk!" Agris reacted, "No way? Why did he get the reward for this assessment?"
Captain Fang immediately retorted, "This isn't necessarily a performance reward. Besides, there are four of us here. The fact that he was able to catch it is a testament to his ability."
Agris rolled his eyes and said, "Are you protecting him? He took the reward, and I can't say anything?"
"I've already told you that the assessment depends on your ability, and this may not necessarily be a reward." Captain Fang, who hadn't moved since entering, stood up and slowly walked to Wei Huan. He looked at Agris and said, "You can try, but don't interrupt him."
Agris bit her lower lip until it turned red, her eyes rolled around, and finally she sat down beside the sapling in angrily. As she looked up, she saw another leaf swaying slightly, and she watched it fall down, then turned into a green light and floated towards Wei Huan.
This time, Agris was no longer able to be angry and quickly closed his eyes. Although he didn't know how Wei Huan did it, he had to give it a try. Who knows what kind of improvement this thing will bring.
Jacques on the side was different from Agris. Instead, he opened his eyes and stared at Wei Huan in a trance.
Seeing Captain Fang looking at him warily, he hurriedly explained, "I owe Wei Huan a great favor. Don't worry, I won't disturb him. Besides, we've been here for so long and haven't been able to get those leaves. It's really Colonel Wei's skill that he got them."
Agris, who was squatting beside the sapling, suddenly said, "Tell me, will it be the same if I pick it off?"
"Agris," Jacques stopped her more quickly, "You should know differently."
Agris's hand touched the leaves, but she pulled it back. She bit her fingertips and said nothing, with a complicated expression on her face. In the end, she did not take any forceful action, but closed her eyes again and tried to call the sapling to get a response.
Seeing that Agris had calmed down again, Jacques breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Captain Fang with a cold expression, and then at Wei Huan who seemed to be asleep.
With Captain Fang protecting him, no one can attack Wei Huan. Once Wei Huan wakes up normally, no one here can be his opponent.
This is a purely combat effectiveness assessment.
But even if the assessment result shows that his side has a greater chance of winning, Jacques will not take action.
If humans continue to kill each other, they will be doomed.
Especially these four strongest humans, the loss of any one of them will tilt the tide of this war of civilizations.
Of course, Jacques still felt a little regretful in his heart, wondering why it was not him, or Agris, who had the adventure.
Is it destined by heaven that this is the era of Daxia?
Everyone was clearly here, so why did they choose Wei Huan? What did Wei Huan do?
