Chapter 301 The First Confrontation with the Aboriginals
Wei Huan looked at those strange-looking things and was not afraid.
It's just a monster. This ferocious monster is the one that challenges the world the most. He has long ignored it and treated it indifferently.
As for this terrifying number, it was nothing in Wei Huan's eyes. What he was best at was legionary combat.
The Ghost Crow was the vanguard, the Two-Headed Hidden Demon was the main fighter, and the Demon Eye Lord attacked from a distance. They took the initiative to fight and rushed forward with a more ferocious and brutal attitude than their opponents.
"boom!"
The whole heaven and earth trembled.
The fighting air currents were like shock waves, sweeping up sand and rocks, and the battle was so fierce that the sun and moon were dimmed.
Wei Huan quickly determined through the casualty ratio of both sides that the level of these monsters had almost reached that of a level five world, perhaps even higher, but not to the level of a level six world.
One of his level six two-headed hidden demons could fight three monsters at the same time without being defeated.
The visitors were of all shapes and sizes, and some existed in groups. The two-headed shadow demon was often entangled by smaller monsters, numbering about a hundred. In this case, it was often unable to fight against the enemy and was torn into pieces and sent back to the tomb.
However, Wei Huan does not only have the Two-Headed Hidden Demon as one type of soldier. Although the Ghost Crows can only be used as scouts most of the time now, they are still quite effective against monsters of lower levels than themselves. Their undead screams explode in the monsters' minds, and many monsters fall directly from the sky and are quickly torn to pieces by the army of running wolves on the ground.
Although the Wolf Army cannot fly, battles in the sky are often accompanied by casualties. At this time, if the enemy falls, they will never be able to return.
The Running Wolf Army is Wei Huan's largest legion, spread across the mountains, even those steep mountains. Their claws can grab the mountain walls and they can climb even the steepest peaks. Once a monster flies too low, they will swoop out, pull the opponent down from the sky and tear it to pieces.
The Lord of the Demon Eye even moved the turret and stood still in one place. Black beams of light shot out from his hideous and disgusting eyes, and the monsters fell down like dumplings.
As soon as the two sides fought, their strength was clearly distinguished. The monsters in the front could not even hold on for three minutes and died in large numbers.
The monsters flying behind were frightened and calmed down. Some of them started to run back. Wei Huan did not order the undead army to chase them. The situation was unclear now, and he only had to protect the safety of the three of them.
Since the undead army did not chase them, the monsters did not flee either. They wandered at a distance, as if they were afraid to move forward but unwilling to give up.
Only then could Wei Huan calm down and check their true appearance.
There were snakes with three heads, cows without heads but with gaping bellies, swarms of mosquitoes as big as water tanks, and a group of bird-men with wings and human bodies but bird-like heads.
In fact, when Wei Huan saw these monsters, he knew where he was at the moment.
As expected, I didn't pass the highway test and directly entered the seventh-level world.
After all, he could see monsters of these forms from time to time when he opened treasure chests in the sixth-level world.
However, the treasure chest monsters controlled by the challenge world are not so lively, and their eyes are not so bright. They will only fight to the death with the person who opens the treasure chest, and will not run away if they cannot kill like they are doing now. But they don’t want to give up the benefits, so they wander around at a distance that is neither far nor near, full of cunning.
Is the world that emerged from the World Tree only a level seven world?
Wei Huan was actually very disappointed. Even though he knew very well that this was normal and that he should have come to the seventh-level world, he still hoped for a different answer.
But... what exactly did he want? He couldn't say it.
Wei Huan didn't want to cause any trouble now, he just wanted to save his own life, so after making sure that these monsters were driven away and the situation was safe, he turned his attention back to his surroundings.
He felt that he could move a little more and was no longer in pain, so he tried to sit up.
Dian Ma released her red great-great-grandson. This little creature was very clever. After coming out, it shrank to a very small size, crawled under Wei Huan's back, and then slowly grew bigger. Wei Huan seemed to be supported by it and sat up against its back shell.
His vision was overturned, Wei Huan coughed twice again, and was about to reach out to check Mu Zhong's condition, when he suddenly felt a warning and looked up abruptly.
Then he saw something flying from a distance in an instant, swooping down towards him at an extremely fast speed. It was so fast that before Wei Huan noticed anything unusual and saw it, it had already reached the center of the valley and was above his head.
"boom!"
The heavy blow from the fall looked like it would hit his head directly.
Unfortunately, this is the closest distance it can reach.
Wei Huan looked up and saw that the one-legged monster was stopped by a transparent light film.
The light film was invisible and colorless, difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. Only when it exerted its power to stop the attack could the folds of the air be seen. The faint arc almost covered the valley and extended all the way underground.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Huan frowned again, and his cold and sharp eyes fell downwards, looking at the place under his feet.
Deep in the soil, there were also attacks.
Coming from both the sky and the ground, both were extremely ferocious attacks, appearing one after another and causing the bubbles to shake and become turbulent.
After Dian Ma advanced to the pseudo-god level, the bubble had a strong defensive ability. Only the top masters of Sequence Six could disturb this defensive bubble, but the only one who could break it was Xu Qingqiang in the bloodthirsty state.
Wei Huan narrowed his eyes slightly after noticing the turbulence of the bubbles.
This is why he is always practicing and always thinks that his firepower is insufficient. In a higher-level world, combat effectiveness cannot be simply based on the basic combat effectiveness of that world. Instead, it must exceed the ceiling in order to easily explore this world.
Wei Huan is now fully equipped with diamond-level equipment, as well as artifacts such as the Ring of Mofidi and the Book of Death. The combat effectiveness he can improve through equipment is getting less and less.
Therefore, he could only delve deeper into his profession.
The reason for upgrading too quickly is that his professional ability has actually never exceeded the limit, and there are so many areas where he can improve.
Now that he has come to the level 7 world, not only has he fallen and been seriously injured, but he is also about to face a fierce battle. If he had been a little slack in the level 6 world and slowed down his cultivation, he would be facing a completely different situation today.
As for now, judging from the turbulence of the bubble, the opponent's two attacks are still far from breaking the bubble, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
Wei Huan pursed his lips, thinking that it would be rude not to reciprocate.
Now that you have already done it, just leave your life behind and let him see what this world is really like!
Wei Huan's mind suddenly turned to murderous intent, and the undead guarding him turned into bloody blades and cut towards the one-legged monster in the sky.
The monster obviously had good bounce ability. After failing in its first attack, it kept jumping on the air shield, smashing the air shield to create ripples one after another.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
But that was all. The undead army rushed towards it. It obviously knew that it could not break Wei Huan's protective shield, and it was useless to kill these undead. So it bent one leg to gather strength and was about to jump away.
But now that we are here, it’s not easy to leave.
The army of undead was like a net covering its head. Even if it could smash dozens or hundreds of undead, there were tens of thousands of them. It would soon be like a butterfly bitten by an ant. Even if it struggled hard, it could no longer fly.
The one that fell to the ground was not easy to deal with. Among Wei Huan's undead, apart from the Ghost Crow, there was no other type of soldier that could ignore material combat. Even though the Facehugger was very good at fighting underground, it had to dig the soil first.
The Ghost Crow's strength is average, and only Sister Crow can deal with it. There are constant tremors underground, and the information about the Ghost Crow is also sent up intermittently.
It turned out to be a black dragon that looked like a loach.
dragon?
For the people of Daxia, the dragon is a totem and the highest symbol of strength and power. Even Wei Huan has an indescribable feeling towards the dragon.
The challenge world is already halfway through, and this is indeed the first time he has encountered a dragon-shaped monster. Even if it is just a walking dragon, Wei Huan still wants to see it.
Of course, by killing Bye Bye.
He was not stupid enough to naively want to conquer these monsters. Challenging the world had established a good concept for the human race, that is, human beings are one and share life and death, and those who are not of our race must have different hearts.
There is no need to consider conquering other tribes; it is best to kill them if you meet them.
Wei Huan was paying attention to the battle underground when he suddenly heard a few "quack" sounds like frogs. Then, thunders began to strike the sky continuously. It was as if a blue thunderstorm had fallen within a radius of one kilometer, and the crackling sound blew Wei Huan's undead soul apart.
Then, as the "quack" sound became more frequent, the thunderstorm that was sparse at the beginning became a continuous mass. Before Wei Huan could react, a beam of lightning covering a hundred meters fell from the sky. With a "boom", there was no more undead within the range.
Wei Huan was surprised.
You should know that the ones protecting him were all level six undead. Although most of the elite undead were kept in the bubble and not sent out as a precaution, the level six undead who could walk sideways in the level six world were killed in a group not long after they came to this world.
Wei Huan glanced at the elite undead who were protecting him tightly. There was a giant bear as big as a mountain, thousands of elite wolves led by Brother Diaogang, and dozens of ferocious Bichon Frise floating in the air. After hesitating for a moment, his gaze fell on Dian Ma again.
Even though the enemy is quite powerful when fighting to the death, it seems that I still have many trump cards. I put my slightly raised heart at ease and let him try the combat power of this advanced monster in the seventh-level world.
Wei Huan didn't care about the loss of the undead. What he needed most at the moment was intelligence. He didn't rush to use other trump cards, but just sent Shuroma and Flying Monkey to encircle and suppress them again.
The flying monkey adds attributes to Shuroma and also has a kite mode, so he won't be killed in the thunder array.
Besides, thunder is a destructive element, and the same is true for Shuroma. The loss inside is relatively low, and he quickly surrounded the one-legged monster again.
The killing resumed.
"Quack, quack!" The one-legged monster also cried more urgently.
Wei Huan had already fixed his gaze on the ground. After staring for a few seconds, the ground suddenly cracked and two black shadows flew out almost at the same time, each making a hoarse and unpleasant cry.
“Quack!!”
"roar!!"
Finally, after a crazy fight, they separated into two sides and floated in the air.
Wei Huan looked up.
Sister Crow has reached level six. After reaching the level of a legendary hero, her form has gradually separated from the original form of the Ghost Crow. Her body has expanded to a huge size, surrounded by black flames, and there are three long feathers on her tail, just like a black phoenix.
On the other side, as reported in the intelligence, there was a black dragon with claws, but it did not look like the dragon in the legends and totems of Daxia at all. It was more like a ferocious beast evolved from a snake. Its body was a hundred meters long and black and slippery, with two horns on its head like an ox, fangs sticking out of its mouth, and no eyes.
The black phoenix and the black dragon were fighting, and for a moment Wei Huan felt as if he had traveled into a mythical world.
Add to that the one-legged cow, and it feels like you’ve been transported to the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Is it just possible?
Could the Level 7 world represent humanity's ancient past? Or are these legendary creatures actually present in all planes of existence, having existed at some point, hence their presence in this world? Is it possible that, tens of thousands of years ago, Blue Star also participated in a world-challenging test, and ultimately these legendary creatures were reduced to remnants, forever suppressed in the Level 7 world?
For a moment, countless speculations ran through Wei Huan's mind until his head started to hurt.
He was seriously injured in this incident and has been fighting hard until now. If he continues to think about it, he will naturally not have enough energy.
Wei Huan temporarily suppressed all his speculations, and when he looked at the black dragon, it was as if he was looking at a dead snake.
When it was underground, he was afraid that he could not do anything to it and it was not easy to kill it, but now that it had rushed to the surface, it would not be so easy to go back.
As Wei Huan's murderous intent grew stronger, the earth-blooded beast in Dian Ma's abdomen rushed out crazily.
The earth-blooded beasts released earth-blooded beasts, and the earth-blooded beasts released more earth-blooded beasts. The valley was already crowded with earth-blooded beasts alone, not to mention the face-huggers, which numbered hundreds of times more.
In an instant, the black dragon and the one-legged monster were squeezed so hard that they had no room to move.
Then, a terrible scene happened.
Explosions sounded one after another, and the two monsters roared in pain.
Wei Huan's eyes fell on a facehugger. He saw it fly in front of the black dragon, its six arms tightly clasping its flesh. Then its body exploded, driving the bubbles on its surface together and blowing the black dragon's skin into pieces. The facehugger's white bones embedded in the black dragon's body like shrapnel, leaving behind a hideous and terrifying piece of rotten flesh before disappearing and returning.
That’s right, the facehugger has the ability to self-destruct, which is extremely powerful and can kill platinum monsters in the sixth-level world.
This ability can be combined with the Nether Fire, making it even more powerful.
Wei Huan no longer needs to plan carefully when using the "bomb wave" attack, as the exploded facehuggers can be resurrected.
This is one of the abilities added to the Dianma race after it advanced to the pseudo-god level, and Wei Huan was very satisfied.
Now it looks like this should be a high-level monster in this world. Under the attack of the facehugger, blood and flesh are flying, and it screams and wails.
Wei Huan discovered that when these two monsters were no match for him and screamed, the first group of monsters that rushed forward but did not dare to move forward seemed to have received the message and retreated a long distance, with fear in their eyes, and some even turned around and left.
Am I killing the chicken to scare the monkey?
These two monsters are indeed advanced life forms in this world, so when I crush them, those ordinary monsters will feel fear.
“Ouch!!”
At this moment, the black dragon, which had just been blown to pieces with blood, suddenly became illusory and turned into a black shadow, drilling into the ground, trying to escape.
Wei Huan had no experience and was used to challenging monsters to the death. He didn't know that they would run away after just this much fight. Besides, underground combat was not his forte. He could only watch the black dragon burrow into the ground and never come out.
Then he turned his head and looked at the one-legged monster on the other side who seemed to be trying to escape as well, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Sorry, now he has experience.
The undead army suddenly swarmed towards the monster, not caring if they were killed by the explosion of the facehugger. The continuous "boom" sound killed the one-legged monster, making it scream in pain. After struggling for a while, it was finally blown into pieces.
At that moment, Wei Huan felt more clearly the fear of ordinary monsters towards him. Some of the unwilling monsters actually turned around and left without any reluctance.
The crisis that had surrounded us was resolved in an instant.
But Wei Huan didn't care about the monsters that left, but he was shocked by the scene before him.
He stared at the direction where the monster died, and after a moment's fixed gaze, he raised his hand with all his might and reached out to the empty space in that direction.
A ball of white smoke appeared in the palm of his hand.
He spread out his palms and stared for a moment. His pupils suddenly contracted and trembled, and his expression was extremely shocked.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, a painful groan sounded in his ears. Wei Huan hurriedly turned his wrist to collect the smoke in his palm and looked at Mu Zhong.
Mu Zhong didn't know when he had opened his eyes, but perhaps because the pain was too unbearable, his body was shaking and his eyes were opening and closing, and finally a sound escaped from his lips: "...Huan."
Wei Huan said quickly: "I'm here."
Mu Zhong endured it for a few seconds before he said with difficulty: "...where, this..."
"In the world behind the gray fog, we are temporarily safe now. Don't talk for now, just try to heal yourself." Wei Huan explained the current situation in a few words.
Mu Zhong said "hmm" and stopped talking.
Wei Huan was still bothered by his recent discovery, but the environment here was definitely not a good place to recuperate.
He called for the facehugger, who carefully lifted the three of them and placed them on Dian Ma's back before relaxing.
Just like this, half of his life was gone. Mu Zhong fainted again. Wei Huan also had blackouts and was unable to move for a long time. But Dou Lin was actually lucky to be unconscious.
After calming down, Wei Huan looked at the sky above his head. It was a blue sky and white clouds that did not exist in the world of challenge. Thinking of his previous guess, he summoned the ball of white mist into his hand again.
The white mist was Wei Huan's undead hand, which turned into a ball and actually firmly grasped the soul of the one-legged monster, trapping it inside and unable to escape.
Wei Huan looked at the illusive one-legged bull-bodied monster inside. He knew very well that this was the soul it had captured after killing the monster. He also knew that he should be able to control it, and perhaps improve his cultivation by absorbing and swallowing it.
What puzzled him, or perhaps was the source of his vague uneasiness, was that he had killed so many monsters in Challenge World, and had also killed quite a few humans at one point, but this situation had never occurred before.
What does this mean? Does it mean the monsters here are special? Or does it mean that the monsters that challenge the world lack souls? What about humans? Do humans also have souls? What exactly are humans then?
Wei Huan only felt his heart beating violently, his chest felt stuffy and blocked, and another cough came to his throat.
He covered his mouth and coughed, and when he moved away, he wiped the blood off his lips with the back of his hand, then looked forward with murderous intent.
Coming again?
His eyes fell on the huge monster that looked like a giant ape, covered with long red hair, and whose entire head was buried behind the clouds. He pursed his lips.
On the other side, there is a monster with a stronger aura.
The strength of these two monsters is only slightly stronger than that of the one-legged monster.
He was in a bad state and was very upset, so he really didn't want to fight.
Then, Dian Ma's body suddenly grew larger, and in a blink of an eye it exceeded three thousand meters in height. It was still higher and higher, reaching the clouds, and was as big as the monster.
The two sides confronted each other for a few seconds, and the giant ape monster remained silent and slowly retreated.
Then Wei Huan set his sights on a monster in the territory that was only a hundred meters long. Its body was like a lion, an ox, and a tiger, but it was surrounded by red flames, like the sun.
Wei Huan could feel that this monster was stronger than the three high-level monsters that appeared one after another.
Wei Huan didn't really want to continue fighting at this time, but if the other party kept staring at him, it would not be conducive to the cultivation of the three of them.
To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. Since this monster is the strongest among all the monsters that appear, if I defeat it, can I solve the problem once and for all?
Wei Huan felt a strong desire to kill.
The undead army began to move towards that direction.
But the burning flying bull-tiger beast just stared at the undead army's movement for a while, and before they could really get close to it, it turned around and flew away.
For a moment, there was no living creature within a ten-mile radius around Wei Huan.
As his last breath receded, Wei Huan coughed again and ordered Dian Ma to withdraw her magical powers and return to her normal size.
At this moment, half of his spiritual power was consumed.
But at least the threat was lifted and the monsters were scared away.
Wei Huan looked at the soul of the one-legged monster again, looked at Mu Zhong with mixed feelings, and just waited quietly.
In less than 20 minutes, Mu Zhong suddenly opened his eyes, as if he had woken up from a deep sleep. He glanced around alertly, then turned over and sat up, rushing to Wei Huan's side.
The power of nature flowed from his palms and poured into Wei Huan's body, healing his bones and muscles damaged by the violent collision. He said, "How could you be injured so badly? You're wearing diamond-grade equipment. What kind of collision could hurt you?"
Wei Huan checked Mu Zhong's face and saw that although he looked disheveled and the pain between his brows was hard to hide, his overall complexion was not bad.
Then he slowly replied, "This world is different."
Mu Zhong was puzzled: "What kind of world is this? A level seven world?"
Wei Huan shook his head: "Yes and no."
"What's the meaning?"
"Look at this..." Wei Huan raised his hand and handed the one-legged monster's soul to Mu Zhong. His eyes fell on Mu Zhong's face. "Do you see anything?"
Mu Zhong looked confused at first, then he seemed to be thinking about something, and finally his expression changed drastically!
