Chapter 161 A "Guest" from Another Region
Aside from the dazzling array of weapons, players also channeled their talents into the swarms of ferocious insects.
Rong Yi saw a female player with countless thin needles bursting out in front of her. The ferocious insects that were pricked by the needles were hissing in pain and even attacking their own kind next to them.
Another male player released four black blocks out of thin air. When the blocks moved above the swarm of ferocious insects and scattered and sank, the surrounded ferocious insects could not escape the area. As the blocks exploded, all of them except for the insect crystals in the insect brains were blown to dust.
There are many such amazing talents.
Meanwhile, fighter jets in the sky dropped bombs, carpet-bombing the swarms of ferocious insects on the ground.
Among the swarms of insects, a small number are as big as buses. Fighter jets will deliberately fire heavy bullets at them, and after firing a burst, they will immediately take off and create distance.
"Uphold the damage reduction dome!"
Someone shouted in the player group. As soon as these words were spoken, a female player immediately raised her arms. Soft light emanated from her palms, slowly forming a faintly visible inverted protective circle. Players around her ran into it.
The male player who was shouting was wearing the most common combat uniform, and there was a twisting sensation between his two palms.
Rong Yi and Wei Yanqing watched as he fearlessly walked towards the swarm of ferocious insects, a device on his back that began to take shape as it twisted. The device emitted jets of air, propelling him into the air before he plunged headfirst into the swarm of insects.
For safety's sake, Wei Yanqing not only activated the protective shields of both of them, but also erected a mental protective circle.
The blinding white light would likely cause temporary blindness if one didn't shield their eyes. Wei Yanqing instinctively closed his eyes and raised his hand to block the light, while Rong Yi remained unaffected, trying to see clearly what was happening through the white light.
The white light lasted for three seconds, followed by a devastating explosion that forced those who had been covering their eyes to cover their ears as well.
The blast of energy created a shockwave that knocked people inside the dome off their feet. However, they seemed to be prepared, as each person's arm was secured to the person next to them to prevent them from rolling out of the dome's area.
Rong Yi then supported Wei Yanqing's shoulder; to her, this kind of shockwave was like a strong gust of wind.
When everything calmed down and the white light slowly faded, Rong Yi blinked a few times and found that his vision was unaffected and he was fine.
After the white light dissipated, the place that was originally full of ferocious insects was completely clean, leaving only a pile of insect crystals. Standing in the pile of insect crystals was the man who had flown into the swarm of insects, completely unharmed.
The man strolled back to the player group. "Store the insect crystals. If the insect swarm doesn't come after we finish collecting the insects, take a break."
Those inside the damage reduction dome were all feeling somewhat uncomfortable, but if they had faced the explosion directly, they would probably have ended up like the ferocious insects.
The place that was originally teeming with insects had completely disappeared, along with the surrounding tree trunks, and Rong Yi and Wei Yanqing were thus brought into their sight.
Wei Yanqing shook his head. "That explosion was loud enough." Then, seeing that Rong Yi seemed unaffected, he asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
He used the healing product on himself, and his tinnitus returned to normal.
Rong Yi waved his hand, "It's nothing, but who is he? A human bomb?"
This move completely leveled the surrounding area.
The man who caused the explosion walked straight toward them. Wei Yanqing said, "It seems he will tell us on his own."
"You've come at an inopportune time; I didn't see you earlier. However, your defensive capabilities are quite impressive." He scanned the two men. "So you're the Rong Yi and Wei Yanqing who have recently risen to fame?"
Rong Yi nodded slowly, "That's right, you're a bomb that has come to life?"
The man laughed heartily, “That’s my talent. My name is Jing Feiyang, and others also call me the Bomb Man.”
It sounds more like a bomb coming to life.
After introducing himself, Jing Feiyang immediately said, "Are you here to earn insect crystals too? You've come at the perfect time, right in our harvesting area."
The conversation was quite relaxed, without the slightest hint of tension.
"Harvesting areas...the unspoken rules of high-end dungeons?" Rong Yi was curious whether this was a common practice.
"Pretty much." Jing Feiyang nodded. "Of course, if you need a harvesting area, you can challenge the team leader."
Rong Yi's eyes lit up; it was time to challenge them to a duel.
Seeing her eagerness to try, Jing Feiyang knew that her bloodline was explosive, and his own explosion would not be able to shake her at all. Moreover, he had just released one wave, and he could not release a second wave of explosion in a short time. In close combat, he was no match for this woman.
He remembered the information given to him very clearly: this man named Rong Yi was extremely prone to losing control when facing multiple opponents, and he did not want to lose manpower. He also instructed that he should be on good terms with these two.
Jing Feiyang shrugged slightly. "Don't look at me. Since staying here to retreat is not on the way to our intended destination, we plan to change our route and find a different harvesting area."
The implication is that this place is yours to handle, and you'll be able to deal with those two. Are you that easy to talk to?
Rong Yi: "..."
The number of ferocious insects deployed in each area is limited and not unlimited. This wave of explosions has cleaned it up. Even if it wasn't completely wiped out, the ferocious insects further away knew to retreat first.
Since the other party made a concession, Wei Yanqing replied, "Then you go ahead with your work. We'll take over as soon as you leave."
"Can we add each other as friends?" Jing Feiyang asked. "System friends, not the mobile phone kind."
·
Jing Feiyang's team used a vacuum cleaner-like device to clean up all the insect crystals on the ground.
He warmly invited the two to the chairs that the team members had just set out, saying, "We're planning to have a meal first, would you like to join us?"
They had been fighting for several hours since the attack on the border. Even the strongest fighters would feel tired and hungry under such intense exertion.
Rong Yi calmly sat down, looked at Wei Yanqing, and gave him the decision.
Wei Yanqing: "Then I'll take my leave."
Believing that it's always better to have one more friend than one more enemy, Wei Yanqing did not refuse this deliberate gesture of goodwill.
Rong Yi recalled that before the explosion, several fighter jets were still in the air, not yet completely gone.
"Aren't you worried about the situation with the indigenous people, given how big your actions are?"
To be honest, the players acted like magicians, using all sorts of bizarre and outlandish methods that were beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
Jing Feiyang seemed to think for a moment, then shook his head. "What's there to care about? Their world is already like this. The appearance of weirdos like us is actually a great help to them." After saying that, he looked at the two of them. "I thought you were used to it. I didn't expect you to still be considering this issue."
Rong Yi: "Well, in previous instances, the most we did was carry a lot of ammunition, but we didn't cause such a commotion as you."
Even if things go a little strange afterward, it's still within a controllable range. Someone like Jing Feiyang, on the other hand, is clearly out of control.
The fact that no fighter jets landed nearby indicates that the evacuation was likely safe, and the situation will certainly be reported.
Jing Feiyang tilted his head back and gulped down a mouthful of water. After swallowing, he said, "The common enemy is the ferocious insects. The natives are definitely not fools."
With the help of instruments and a large number of people, the team members were able to collect insect crystals very quickly.
While some people were busy preparing the meals, Jing Feiyang lay on a chair and chatted and laughed with Rong Yi and the others.
Jing Feiyang talked to them a lot, as if he were specifically introducing the various rules related to high-end dungeons.
