The night was thick, and the cold wind blew through the fine yellow sand, carrying a strong smell of blood and floating in the rough air.
All the sand scorpions returned to the ground, and the sand wolves were all killed by the school team. The Damocles school team mecha soldiers all stopped their actions, and the surroundings suddenly fell into a sudden quiet atmosphere. As time passed, the strange rhythm gradually dissipated.
Wei San stood in the inner circle. She woke up the fastest. Perhaps she was not connected with the school team from the beginning, but was floating outside, but the other school team members did not notice it, not to mention the people watching through the live camera.
"Clean up the battlefield and put away all the tents that can be used." Wei San came out of the mecha and said.
The other school team members started to clean up, and at this time the broadcast above sounded again.
[Damocles Military Academy killed two double S red-limbed giant spiders, and the school team killed 49 sand scorpions and 67 sand wolves. Repeat...]
Two beams of light lit up at different positions.
"The main team finally encountered a high-level star beast." Ding Hemei looked up at the beam of light in the distance and said happily.
"There is still time, I hope they can find other high-level star beasts." Nie Haoqi said, handing his mecha to the mecha master.
The mecha masters began to repair the damaged mecha on the spot, and Wei San led the team commander to exchange materials and energy.
Another direction.
The commander of the Imperial Academy pointed at one of the beams just now: "The Damocles team should be in that direction, which is one of the possible routes drawn by the main commander. If we rush over now, we will probably meet them tomorrow afternoon."
Tai Wude sighed in his heart, but still maintained the calmness of the Imperial General: "Rest and reorganize first, and hurry up tomorrow morning."
There are only three routes to reach the finish line in the desert arena. If the military academy in front goes all the way forward and the speed is fast, the military academy behind may not meet it even when it reaches the finish line, just like the hill track. However, the military academy in front generally does not go directly to the finish line. While ensuring that it reaches the finish line first, it will try to find as many high-level star beasts as possible to accumulate energy materials for the following arenas.
For example, the current Imperial School Team, they deviated from the route from the beginning, in order to kill more Star Beasts in exchange for resources.
It happened that they would return to the route tomorrow.
"Tent 41 is damaged, and there are 11 tents that can be repaired and can be used." The single soldier in charge of statistics came over and said.
Wei San looked at the mess in the inner circle and said in advance: "We still have to stay in there for a few days. It's not good to have no tents. If we meet any school team next time, we will take the opportunity to rob them."
The live broadcast room was reminded by the battle bell, and the netizens who woke up to watch: "???"
So other military school teams are just mobile storage bags in the eyes of the Damocles School Team?
Without tents, they separated and squeezed to rest. It happened that someone was patrolling the outer area, and the school team members barely rested for a night.
The next day, at dawn, broadcasts rang out in the air.
[The Imperial Military Academy killed four double-S black-tailed sand wolves.]
[Nampaxi killed two double-S giant lizards.]
[Pingtongyuan killed two double-S golden pythons and two giant sand spiders.]
[Samuel killed three double-S giant sand scorpions.]
Four beams of light lit up from all directions.
Wei San stood up and listened to the broadcast, and found that only the Damocles Military Academy was silent.
"Let's go." Regardless of the main members, Wei San still had to lead the school team on the road.
All the school team members organized and set off. After walking for a while, a beam of light suddenly rose from the direction of half past ten.
[Damocles Military Academy killed a 3S giant spotted wolf and a 3S two-headed viper.]
The Damocles team looked up at the beam and heard the broadcast. After a while, cheers suddenly rang out in the team.
Two 3S star beasts! No members were eliminated!
Damocles Military Academy finally got lucky.
"The level of the students participating in this competition is really good." Xi Haotian looked at Jin Ke and others in the live camera.
Jin Ke and his team ambushed and waited around last night. At that time, the giant spotted wolf and the two-headed viper were fighting for territory. At three o'clock in the morning, the two-headed viper finally won. The giant spotted wolf dragged away with injuries. Liao Runing went to chase it, and Huo Xuanshan and Shen Tukun stayed to take charge of the two-headed viper.
Jin Ke stood nearby, and the perception barrier was divided into three, protecting the three people to prevent them from being attacked by the high-level star beast.
Although Huo Xuanshan and Shen Tukun cooperated, the viper had two heads and was extremely aggressive. In addition, it moved quickly in the desert, making it very difficult to deal with.
Shen Tukun approached the lower abdomen of the two-headed viper, and the viper had already reacted, and the two heads were about to turn around to attack him. Huo Xuanshan controlled Lan Hai to open his wings, and a silver bow appeared in his hand. Every time he pulled the bow, he could shoot eight ice arrows, all of which could be controlled in different directions. Once attacked, the arrows made of high-concentration ice would freeze and shatter anything within half a meter, with the ice arrow as the center.
Disturbed by Huo Xuanshan's ice arrow, the two-headed viper had to turn around and face him, but the next second, the snake's tail curved and hit Shen Tu Kun, who had not yet reached the abdomen.
Jin Ke raised both hands, and invisible perception overflowed from his palms. His left hand was facing Liao Runing in the distance, and his right palm was facing Huo Xuanshan and the other person nearby.
When the two-headed viper's tail swung over, Jin Ke used his perception to directly transmit what he saw to Huo Xuanshan and Shen Tu Kun's brains.
The commander cannot control the mecha soldiers of the same level, nor can he control the mecha soldiers of the next level who have been trained in sensory resistance, but he can transmit what he knows and feels into their brains, as long as they do not resist.
Shentu Kun quickly bent back to avoid the snake's tail that swept over, and when it retracted and its attack power decreased, he leaped into the air and chopped at the snake's tail with the sword in his hand.
The two-headed viper Chi felt pain. One head was still attacking Huo Xuanshan, and the other head bit Shentu Kun directly. The two heads, which originally only accounted for one-fifth of the snake's body, suddenly split and stretched to one-third.
Several people were shocked. This two-headed viper actually began to mutate.
Shentu Kun could not dodge in time and could only resist it, but when he resisted the viper's bite, he was hit by the snake's tail that swung wildly from behind, and a large part of the back of the mecha was directly dented.
"It's a little bit behind. Their commander can't use perception to attack 3S-level star beasts." Ying Yuerong commented.
Xi Haotian smiled and said, "Except for Ying Xingjue of the Imperial Military Academy, no other military academy commander can do it at present."
This kind of attack ability needs to be constantly acquired in actual combat. Teachers can't teach it, and the simulation cabin can't simulate it.
Compared with mecha soldiers and mecha divisions, command is more difficult to learn.
Huo Xuanshan held the silver bow, and eight ice arrows, after leaving the bowstring, shot at the four eyes of the two-headed viper in four directions.
"Hiss, hiss--"
The two-headed viper spit out its blood-red forked tongue and then retracted it, making warning and painful sounds.
Huo Xuanshan and Shentu Kun started their mechas at the same time and attacked the two-headed viper at the same time, not giving it any time to react.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Liao Runing was much more direct, firing at the giant spotted wolf from a distance. The opponent was seriously injured, and he took advantage of it a little, but after the life-and-death thrill, the spotted wolf's strength once again reached a new level. Liao Runing also
gradually felt the strain.
He drew out his weapon--the three-ring knife.
The back of the knife was inlaid with three rings, and every time the knife was swung, the rings and the blade made a slight collision sound.
It was not an ordinary collision sound. The three-ring knife had a special material mixed in the blade: the cool sound cicada wings.
Every time the three rings touch the blade, the sound emitted can confuse the opponent and make him feel dazed. This effect is effective against both star beasts and mecha soldiers. It
is very similar to the spiritual attack of star beasts, but the sound of the three-ring knife cannot be shielded by the commander's perception.
On the weapon ranking list, someone once commented that the three-ring knife is a bug, because once the three-ring knife sounds, it will attack all people and star beasts indiscriminately, and only the person wielding the knife will be affected the least.
Liangyin cicada wings are rare and can hardly be found on the market, not to mention using them as materials to mix into weapons. Therefore, the Federation also has only this three-ring knife.
After Liao Runing took out the three-ring knife, he attacked the giant wolf. It really hesitated for a second. This short hesitation was enough for him to seriously injure the wolf. The three
-ring knife swung, and the ring touched the blade.
With three "dingling" sounds, Liao Runing's blade deeply cut into the giant wolf's back.
The giant wolf howled furiously, and its claws desperately grabbed Liao Runing.
Liao Runing dodged and swung the three-ring knife again. The giant wolf was seriously injured, which would increase the sense of trance. He won.
Ten minutes later, the giant wolf was killed by Liao Runing on the sand.
After killing two 3S star beasts respectively, the mechas of the three mecha soldiers were all seriously damaged. Ying Chenghe immediately started to repair their mechas on the spot. At this time, the mecha materials came in handy.
...
"There is a school team ahead." Ding Hemei came back from the inspection.
Everyone was in high spirits, and Nie Haoqi was the first to say, "Then let's hurry up and ask them to send some tents!"
Ding Hemei didn't get too close to investigate, and didn't know which military academy it was, but the Damocles team didn't care.
Wei San agreed, and the group immediately rushed forward.
The school team in front was exactly the people from the Nanpasi Military Academy.
Perhaps because of the deep impression left by the sneak attack on the previous field, the Damocles team was discovered first this time.
All the members of Nanpasi suddenly accelerated and ran.
The members of the Damocles team were all stunned, they hadn't even met and started fighting yet.
Wei San felt a little sorry: "Are they so timid?"
The Damocles team also sighed with regret.
Audience in the live broadcast room: "...a group of robbers sighed online."
"At this speed, it should only take us two days to reach the finish line." Wei San raised his hand to block the direct sunlight, "Do we have enough energy?"
The team commander said: "Yes, but we'd better follow the main team, or wait for people from other military academies to reach the finish line and pull down the flag before rushing over."
There must be high-level star beasts near the finish line. If the school team goes there recklessly, it will be seeking death. The main members must be there, or the main members of other military academies must deal with the high-level star beasts.
Wei San nodded: "We will go to the supply station tonight to get food."
Under the scorching sun and stepping on the yellow sand, the Damocles team moved forward quietly and quickly, hoping to reach the supply station at night and have food to replenish their physical strength.
In the middle, the Damocles team found two more groups of star beasts and fought twice, and their physical strength decreased again.
The sun gradually set, and the temperature in the desert began to drop. The Damocles team had changed several groups of people to guard.
"We are almost there, and there are still a few miles to go." Ding Hemei's lips were chapped.
There is not much food in the supply station, which can only maintain basic physical fitness. The competition is not for fun, but to train them, hoping that they will gain experience from actual combat. At the beginning, there was no supply station in the Hephaestus Tournament. Everything was set up one-to-one according to the real combat environment, or in other words, it was a real combat environment without human intervention. However, the casualty rate was too high, which once led to the military district not being able to recruit enough people at graduation every year. Later, it gradually developed to the current situation.
Fifteen minutes later, the Damocles school team arrived at the supply station, and Wei San went in to get the supply packs.
Two supply packs were taken away, leaving only three. The second supply pack had the flag of the Imperial Military Academy, the fourth supply pack had the flag of Damocles, and the fifth had the flag of Samuel, indicating that the main members of each school had been there.
Wei San took the fourth supply pack.
The squad commander came in and saw the second supply bag, and was surprised: "Is the Imperial Military Academy behind Pingtongyuan?"
"It could also be the main team of Nampaxi." Wei San handed the supply bag to the squad commander and asked him to take it out and distribute it.
The Damocles team began to replenish their energy and rest on the spot.
Wei San just finished drinking a nutrient solution and turned his head to look behind him.
At night, except for the lights inside the team, it was basically dark at a distance.
Wei San stood up and signaled everyone to be alert: "Come out."
The person behind slowly walked out. It was the Imperial Military Academy.
The Damocles team members' eyes lit up immediately, as if they saw a big fat sheep coming to their door.
"Tai Wude?" Wei stepped on the yellow sand with three feet, lowered his head and kicked once, then looked up and said nonchalantly, "Are you here to get supply packs or to fight?"
Live broadcast of the scene.
"I've been looking forward to the match between these two generals for a long time." Yu Tianhe turned his head to look at Xi Haotian, "Who do you think has the advantage?"
"It's hard to say." Xi Haotian stared at the two people in the camera, "Wei San's strength is pretty good in the super A level, and with the bonus of blood drops, he basically has no rivals in the A level. The general of the Imperial School Team, Tai...Tai Wude, is said to have defeated a double S soldier operating an A-level mecha. His strength should not be underestimated."
Yu Tianhe held his face: "I can't say for sure. Both of them seem to be from the Nameless Star. They have been in contact with their mechas for less than a year, and they can have such strength. It's really amazing."
"It seems that there are more people from the Nameless Star in the past two years." Xi Haotian seemed to be thinking about something.
"It's probably because the Federation is constantly developing, and the strength of the unknown stars is also beginning to increase."
Tai Wude's hand hanging by his side moved reflexively, and he looked at Wei San and said, "One-on-one."
"One-on-one, you?" Wei San simply asked, "Tai Wude, are you looking for death?"
Tai Wude: "..." There is no need to be so direct, everyone in the entire Star Network is watching.
"Our commander wants you out." Tai Wude pretended to be arrogant, "You must be out today!"
Hearing the three words "chief commander", Wei San raised his eyebrows: "Of course, one-on-one, but there is a condition."
"What condition?" Tai Wude felt that Wei San wanted to rob, just like on Star 3212, asking him to pay tribute in a high-sounding manner!
"If I win, you will give us 41 tents. If you win, you win."
Someone from the Imperial School Team objected: "If we win, you will have to stay."
Tai Wude took a deep breath in his heart, wishing he could turn around and cover the mouth of the person from the Imperial School Team who spoke.
Once Wei San is motivated, her fighting power will soar.
During those years on Star 3212, Tai Wude paid countless blood to get this truth.
Sure enough, Wei San spoke again: "Change the conditions again. If I win, you are dead. If you win... you can stay in your next life."
