Roaming Team
Chapter 88
Mu Zhong looked at Xu Qingqiang, then winked at Wei Huan, as if asking, what's the situation now?
Wei Huan composed himself and said, "I'll have Cousin Mu explain the DKP system to him. If they can actually find the Dark Beast Squad this time, he'll be the first to achieve this feat, and he'll be rewarded."
Mu nodded: "Yes, there will be rewards for merit and punishments for punishment."
Wei Huan never hid his thoughts on Xu Qingqiang from Mu Zhong. Mu Zhong knew that Wei Huan wanted to "keep" Xu Qingqiang.
Xu Qingqiang can increase his attributes by eating. Wei Huan has endless undead for Xu Qingqiang to eat. With such endless feeding, it is exciting to see how strong Xu Qingqiang can become.
In addition, when Xu Qingqiang eats, he obviously absorbs not only blood and energy, but also the laws contained therein.
For example, the "Law of Death" that Wei Huan now masters.
This makes people even more excited to see what kind of connection Xu Qingqiang will have with Wei Huan on the day he masters the law of death.
Some people may think that Xu Qingqiang should not get in Wei Huan's car, and that Xu Qingqiang's career and personality are in conflict with Wei Huan's development direction.
Wei Huan wants to join the army, but Xu Qingqiang is a profession that the army has rejected. Suddenly, a twisted madman jumps out during the army operation, and he is very deadly.
But these are not big deals in Wei Huan's mind.
If you are not suitable for performing collective tasks, you should not participate in collective actions. Some are secret missions that require special operations, and talented people can always be arranged.
Besides, I will always be stronger than Xu Qing.
As long as we can suppress him, we don't have to worry about him jumping around.
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong chatted about something else. Before they knew it, they had left the convoy and had been moving at full speed for more than half an hour. They were already more than a thousand kilometers away.
The level 4 headlights illuminated the monotonous hills beneath our feet, as well as the occasional dark shadow flying past the car.
Even while on the road, Wei Huan did not forget to release his ghost crow to "plow the box".
Just now, silver supplies popped up on the display screen.
The smart butler reminded: "Captain, there is a silver treasure chest monster following the car."
Everyone in the cab stopped talking.
Xu Qingqiang continued, "We're not too far from our first target, so it's better to clear out the silver-level monsters first."
Then, he muttered, "The Gravekeeper sequence is so buggy. You can open the box without even getting out of the car. Don't you have any experience at all?"
Mu Zhong smiled: "The experience is actually quite good. We didn't have time to explore the ruins during this march. You will know how much fun it is to run errands for the undead in the future."
Xu Qingqiang rolled his eyes: "Isn't it DKP? If you guys have already killed them all, how can others have a chance to show off?"
Mu Zhong said, "You can join the battle at any time. How to coordinate with the Undead army is a skill that the crew should actively master. There are also several special elites in the Undead army. I also hope you can get to know them. Don't eat them no matter how hungry you are."
Xu Qingqiang opened his mouth and closed it again, then he curled his lips, stood up and walked out the door while stretching his shoulders.
As he opened the door, he turned around, revealing his jagged teeth and bloodshot eyes. He said ferociously, "This silver monster smells pretty good. I'll treat it as a dessert before dinner."
After saying that, Xu Qingqiang opened the car door and fell from a height of eight meters. Then he turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the hills.
The white mini car hovered in place, turned around and looked back where it came from.
Where the light fell, it illuminated a dark forest.
The dense treetops swayed gracefully, making a rustling sound.
Occasionally, white shadows can be seen passing through the gaps between the trees.
In the opposite direction of this white wave, there is another wave of creatures in the dark, chasing after them.
"boom--"
It was like two huge forces collided with each other, and the powerful airflow generated turned into a giant sword, splitting the forest in two.
The two sides were exposed to the fierce fighting under the tree canopy.
The Wolf and the Facehugger work together to roam.
The violent bear faced the monster that challenged the world head-on and bombarded it fearlessly.
There were groups of ghost-faced spiders and blood-sucking mosquitoes, as well as wire mantises that wielded a pair of huge sickles, looking like blue star mantises, but so huge that they were as big as trucks, fighting together with parasites that protruded from the tail end of their abdomens.
The silver treasure chest monster is this wire mantis.
On the third-level highway, most of the monsters in the wild treasure chests are insect monsters, as well as a small number of dark beasts.
Among the treasure chest monsters in the ruins and relics, there will be some special intelligent races like the "Blue-bearded People", which are suspected to be civilizations that were destroyed because of challenging the world in the past, or some low-level civilizations that were captured by the challenging world.
For Wei Huan, group hunting of treasure chest monsters has become a daily routine, but this scene still makes cousin Mu stare in amazement.
There are ten times more undead than treasure chest monsters. Although each of them is quite powerful when shown individually, they still use the "human wave tactics" and never give the enemy any chance of a comeback.
The undead easily killed the low-level treasure chest monsters and climbed onto the wire mantis.
The mantis's hard shell blocks the bites of the face huggers, and the red iron wires dancing behind it are like whips with their own consciousness, lashing out at every face hugger.
“Wakaka!”
Brother Dig Anus gave the order, and the wolves began to bite the mantis's leg joints.
At this moment, the mantis, which had been fighting calmly just now, suddenly let out a hissing scream and its body twitched and rolled over.
During the violent struggle, countless facehuggers were thrown out.
"Why did you suddenly go crazy?" said cousin Mu.
"This scene looks familiar." Mu Zhong said.
"Butler, zoom in on the mantis's head." Mu Zhong ordered.
The car moved down a little bit, and the camera zoomed in.
Sure enough, they saw Xu Qingqiang's figure on the mantis's head.
“Hehehe!”
He smiled ferociously, his face covered with thorn totems. He rode on the mantis's head, his arms like claws, grabbing into the mantis's compound eyes.
“Puff!”
The compound eyes broke open and juice flowed out. He lowered his head and took a bite, sipped it with intoxication.
Looking at the other eye, I realized that I had been defeated by him without realizing it.
"Brother Qiang has a strong taste."
I don't know when Liu Chengzhi came, but he was swallowing his saliva while talking, looking like he really wanted to try it.
The mouth is really strong.
Xu Qingqiang was eating heartily, and when he looked up, he saw a facehugger crawling towards him out of nowhere.
An elite dog.
The dog was obviously reminded and avoided the position where Xu Qingqiang could easily grab it. From the other side, along the wound caused by Xu Qingqiang, it crawled into the mantis's eyes and started to bite its brain.
The wire mantis struggled desperately, rolling all the way and crushing countless trees.
Finally it rolled into the valley and stopped moving.
The undead spirits that had been tightly wrapped around him finally dispersed.
【Obtain Mantis Wing X4】
As the supplies fell, it also proved that the big mantis was completely dead.
Xu Qingqiang crawled out from its corpse, still in a twisted state, with broad shoulders, extremely long arms, feet turned into flexible claws, and a single horn pointing upwards on his head.
He squatted on the corpse, looked up at the car in the sky, and met Wei Huan's gaze on the projection screen.
Those were a pair of fierce and violent eyes, filled with intense hunger and ferocity, as if they were ready to eat people at any time.
They stared at each other like this for more than ten seconds.
The magic pattern on Xu Qingqiang's face began to shrink towards his neck, and the skin exposed to the strong light gradually turned white until it glowed.
He blinked his bloodshot eyes, and the red faded back from his eyeballs.
After regaining consciousness, he looked around and kicked the huge mantis corpse under his feet in a showy manner.
Finally, he jumped up easily, jumped in front of the car door, and got back into the car.
"Let's go. We've been delayed for a while. The feast is just ahead."
Xu Qingqiang enjoyed everyone's gaze and walked a few steps back to his seat, exuding the style of a southern dancer.
"Let's go." Wei Huan gave the order again.
The vehicle started, leaving corpses all over the ground, and after a while, it would be swallowed up by the challenge world.
More than ten treasure chest monsters, plus a silver-level wire monster, were wiped out in less than three minutes.
Wei Huan looked at Mu Zhong, and the two exchanged glances silently.
Just as they thought, Xu Qingqiang was indeed very suitable for the "breakthrough" position.
Wei Huan's Roman army continued to weaken due to its "bloodthirstiness".
Recently, Wei Huan has focused his recruitment efforts on basic undead such as running wolves and violent bears, so there is indeed a lack of "sharp knife troops".
Of course, if you really need it, Wei Huan has it too.
However, Xu Qingqiang's ability to take the initiative to step forward and take on the role of "sharp knife" is exactly what Wei Huan needs.
What Mu Zhong said to Xu Qingqiang before was right. The people in this car must find their place in the Undead Legion.
Fighting in conjunction with the undead army is the characteristic of this car, and it will never compromise with anyone.
Xu Qingqiang's positioning of himself coincides with Wei Huan's positioning of him.
This also further shortened the time Wei Huan took to clear the monsters.
Normally speaking, given the situation just now, it would probably take some time for the undead army to break through the shell of the wire mantis.
Now with Xu Qingqiang, who has stronger individual combat capabilities, the battle time has been shortened by one third.
The shortened battle time means saving Wei Huan’s spiritual power.
Be able to fight quickly without procrastination.
And as the number of battles increases, I think the speed will increase.
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong were very satisfied.
They have high expectations for Xu Qingqiang and others. Next, it depends on what Xu Qingqiang thinks.
The two of them exchanged glances, but Xu Qingqiang's face could not be seen from their position.
But if someone went to the front to look at this time, they would see Xu Qingqiang with a satisfied look on his face.
This was the first time that he felt satisfaction that was not due to being full.
It's another feeling, that you're no longer alone in the battle.
He had clearly not tried his best, and had even used only half of his strength, but he had killed the silver monster that he had needed to completely unlock, or even lose his mind, to win against in the past.
He never said that.
But if he could live rationally, he didn't want to become a madman or lose control and hurt himself.
His hands and feet were broken, and he had to drag his body to find food. The process was so tragic that even after he went "crazy", it was difficult for him to look back on the experience.
But now.
Those undead can cooperate with him in battle.
Moreover, if he is hungry, he can catch the undead to eat.
If I had to describe it, he was like an orphan walking alone in a dark alley, cold and hungry, and one day he suddenly lived in a big house surrounded by beautiful women, with plenty of food and warm light.
He couldn't think of anything he hated or resisted.
No one can resist happiness.
Besides, he can accumulate points through fighting and buy himself better equipment.
He never thought that he could earn DKP on this car.
But it's not a bad feeling.
He saw that 5 points of DKP had appeared in his account. This was the proceeds from the battle just now and had been credited to his account.
A bronze-level strength potion only costs 5 DKP.
In other words, he went down to have a "dessert" and also got a bronze-level potion.
Even the bronze-level potion was full, he had already taken it all.
But I don’t need it, and not being given it are two completely different feelings.
He is very relaxed.
Sitting in my driver's seat, I feel very relaxed.
Oh, his, driver's seat.
"It's almost there, just ahead." Xu Qingqiang ate two eyeballs and became even hungrier.
He felt the aroma of food in the air, and saliva began to form in his mouth, while black magic patterns appeared from his collar.
Those magic patterns were like living monsters kept in his body, swaying and as excited as he was.
Mu Zhong asked, "How many meters can it be accurate to?"
"I don't know." Xu Qingqiang said without any burden, "I know we're close, and I know I can't handle this group of guys on my own. But even if I want to run, they can't stop me."
Mu Zhong thought about it and asked him, "How does that white rhino make you feel?"
"That's the feeling..." After a pause, Xu Qingqiang said, "Actually, that white rhino is pretty rubbish. If it weren't for the excessive number of stray monsters spawning, I could have killed it."
After Xu Qingqiang finished speaking, he raised his hand again: "Okay, that's enough, I feel like we're close enough.
Let me make it clear first, I don’t know what’s ahead. Maybe it’s a king-level tribe, or maybe it’s a dark beast team.
I'm just looking for someone good at food, not a wife."
Mu nodded, always in a good mood: "Just confirm which direction."
"I'll take you directly there."
"No rush, just observe first."
Xu Qingqiang thought of something and looked outside the car.
Sure enough, after they stopped, the undead army came out of the portal again.
The Ghost Crow became the protagonist of this operation.
Running Wolf and Hidden Cat worked together, shuttling through the forest.
There are too many.
Just as Xu Qingqiang was watching for a while, thousands of undead ran out.
With this number, is this a general attack?
Xu Qingqiang asked, "Aren't we going to investigate? Aren't we going to observe anymore?"
Mu Zhong said, "Yes, surround them and observe."
Xu Qingqiang: "..."
Xu Qingqiang scratched his head. He was the type who couldn't sit still. "I'd better go down."
Mu Zhong said, "Brother An and Gouzi are waiting for you downstairs. You two should get to know each other first. They will..."
"What? Who?"
"Brother Anus is the alpha wolf, Gouzi is the facehugger, Gouzi's mother is called Xiaodian, and the leader of the ghost crows is called Sister Crow."
“…”
Xu Qingqiang tried hard to remember.
What the hell! Aren't all the undead dead? How come they have names and family ties?
Also, a bug is called Dog, what's the rhythm?
Xu Qingqiang jumped out of the car again, and just as he stood firm, he was surrounded from three sides by a delicious-looking running wolf with bone spurs, a hyperactive facehugger that looked unpalatable, and a very delicious female ground beast that was so delicious that you couldn't see the top of its head.
Xu Qingqiang tried to hold back his saliva. He found that these three undead who were waiting here on purpose were indeed very different.
Even though this low-level facehugger is not on his menu, it is very difficult to provoke.
Xu Qingqiang had seen its fighting ability. Once it caught and bit him, an ordinary third-level professional would probably be eaten to the bone. Not to mention, these undead were immortal and could return to the battlefield from the Tomb of the Dead time and time again.
It's the enemy's nightmare.
When Xu Qingqiang met the three elites, Liu Chengzhi was a little nervous and said, "I know this battle is dangerous, but I still want to try. Just like Boss Mu said, at least when danger comes, I can protect myself."
After saying this, he looked at Wei Huan hesitantly, thinking that Wei Huan would disagree.
Wei Huan said, "Go ahead. I will arrange for the undead to protect you."
Liu Chengzhi didn't expect to be accepted directly. He glanced at the dark forest outside the car. There was no moonlight in the world. Once you were out of the range of the car lights, it was extremely dark.
It was like a huge mouth of the abyss ready to devour its prey, and it frightened him so much that his calves were shaking.
But once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back, he said it all.
Finally, with tears in her eyes, she held onto the car door and just before jumping out, she said, "Boss, please protect me. I'm your favorite chef, and I want to make you your favorite crab roe buns tomorrow."
Wei Huan was amused.
Nodding, "Go ahead."
He cherishes his head chef very much, but no one knows when despair and crisis will come. When the monster attacks, he hopes that Liu Chengzhi will at least dare to raise his big spoon, give the enemy a hard hit, and take the initiative to face fate.
Liu Chengzhi jumped down.
He should be able to advance to the third level in the near future, which will make his life on the third level road a little easier.
He probably also felt that he had reached a bottleneck, and if he continued to stay in the car and enjoy the safety, it would be difficult for him to advance.
This is the main reason why he chose to go out and fight.
Xu Qingqiang, Benlang and Gouzi left, heading in one direction with a clear goal.
Liu Chengzhi reunited with Xiaodian, and under the protection of a group of facehuggers and mother earthbeasts, they also moved towards the battlefield.
Wei Huan turned off all the lights outside the car, lowered the altitude, and drove at the back.
The whole hill was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and war was about to break out.
…
The human army has been monitoring the Dark Beast Squad.
Although many times, knowing where they went cannot change the outcome of the challenger being attacked and killed by them.
But intelligence gathering is still necessary.
So far, Dark Beast has a total of 32 special operations teams, whose main task is to enter and exit various random battlefields and hinder the development of mankind.
Correspondingly, humans have 35 special operations teams.
There are eight Daxia legions in total, namely Southeast, Northeast, Southwest, and Northwest, four challenge legions, each with two excellent special operations teams and multiple substitute teams.
Old powerful countries such as Osam, Tula, Big Bear, and Fence also maintain the organization of 5 to 8 special operations teams.
In addition, the United Nations has four strong teams.
Both sides were attacking each other's reserve forces.
Or rather, slaughtering the young newcomers.
In the latest intelligence, it can be confirmed that 22 Dark Beast teams have gone to other random challenges.
After all, Daxia is not the only one involved in the construction of third and fourth level highways. Challengers from other countries are also facing similar difficulties.
Among the remaining 10 teams, the whereabouts of 8 teams are unclear, but there are traces to follow, and they are most likely not in this challenge.
There are only 3 teams left, and they are 100% confirmed to enter.
One of them was the "Fast Bullet Squad" who were beaten to a pulp by Wei Huan as soon as they showed up.
The team is made up of two-headed demons who can fly and are good at hiding. They come and go without a trace and cause a lot of trouble to humans.
Now, the most powerful captain of this "Fast Bullet Squad" is dead, and three others have escaped. There is no news yet.
The remaining two teams have completely different fighting styles.
"Ji" is challenging the exit of the highway, building his territory, and has been developing since the first night.
When Wei Huan and his convoy arrived, they were faced with a powerful territory that had been developing for at least 9 days.
Even without intelligence, Wei Huan knew that this kind of obstruction mode must exist.
In every large-scale assessment, there will be dark beasts building territories at the exit. This is not the arrangement of the Challenge World, but the Challenge World is obviously very satisfied with this phenomenon and has never stopped it.
This kind of obstruction happened so many times that it even happened in every assessment.
Humans call these dark beast lords "final bosses".
There is the "Fast Bullet Squad" that appears at the beginning, and there is also the "Final BOSS".
But this is clearly not enough.
Because it has been proven that most human challengers are only satisfied with 80% of the progress, and will never take risks again as long as they can pass with a low score.
Therefore, in the 70~80% area of the stage, a dark beast team will usually appear.
Humans call this dark beast team the "wandering team."
Depending on the configuration, some "roaming teams" only like to harass and sneak attack, some will build territories, and some will dig traps.
Wei Huan's car had only been driven for an hour. Even if it was driving at full speed, he shouldn't have encountered the "roaming team" so early.
Then the more likely possibility is that a tribe of king-level wandering monsters appeared here, or... a "roaming team" of dogs sneaking around and digging traps.
Wei Huan's vision, through the Lord of the Demonic Eyes, allowed him to see things in the dark as if it were daytime.
He found his target faster.
Several dogs are eating dirt.
The one-meter-tall dog has a rat's body and hops like a rabbit. It looks very deformed, but its eyes are smart and full of wisdom.
There is no doubt that this is a group of dark beasts.
Humans call these dogs "Grunts" and some call them "dog-headed men".
This is a space-type dark beast.
They have extra space in their stomachs, which can not only hold a large amount of items, but also transport living people.
Just like humans cannot bring cars into random challenges, dark beasts cannot bring their territories into the challenge world on the human side.
But what is the reality?
The human special forces team drove chariots to slaughter the dark beast lords in random challenges, and the dark beasts also found a way to bring their territory into random challenges.
As the capabilities of both sides grow stronger, the constraints that can be imposed by challenging the world gradually become smaller.
In short, when Wei Huan saw this group of dog-headed men, he understood their plan.
These guys are using their talents to dig traps all night long.
They were teleported here through the challenge system and dug a large pit right in front of the convoy that could accommodate more than a thousand vehicles.
The purpose is to kill the humans who fall into the pit.
Perhaps it was Wei Huan's powerful strength that made them give up the method of head-on confrontation.
Or maybe this was their plan.
The hatred between dark beasts and humans is beyond description.
Conspiracy traps are just the most common means.
But when Wei Huan saw this big pit with his own eyes, he still thought fiercely in his heart that after this assessment, he must go to a random battlefield and not give up until he has wiped out an area!
