Chapter 977 May the Emperor Be with You
Bai Tu’s idea was exactly the same as Zhou Chongshan’s. Although neither had conducted actual tests, considering the current situation, Zhou Chongshan was still willing to take the risk.
The first thing to do was to take off the armor on his body.
This is not a suicide ploy.
Having witnessed the strength of the evil demon's tentacle attacks, Zhou Chongshan knew very well that it would make no difference whether he wore armor or not. If he was hit by one, he would be basically finished.
In this case, it is better to take off the armor and reduce the weight on your body, thereby improving your flexibility and speed, and at the same time improving your sustained combat capability.
Zhou Chongshan basically had all the equipment he had, including a round shield and two swords. Apart from that, even his warhorse would have become a burden in this ruined environment.
In order to ensure Zhou Chongshan's safety, Soros immediately summoned a team of dragoons and let Tash lead the team personally to stand by on the periphery.
If anything happened, they would rush in immediately to attract the evil spirit's attention and cover Zhou Chongshan's evacuation.
"Are you all ready?"
Handing the reins of a velociraptor to the other party, Tash felt mixed emotions as he looked at Zhou Chongshan who was lightly equipped for battle.
Due to the tactical arrangements here, they often need to carry out tactical coordination between the Dragoons and the Vanguard Cavalry, so he and Zhou Chongshan can be considered an old comrade-in-arms.
He knew that Zhou Chongshan was very strong, but he had never felt it so deeply before.
Simply put, when facing that evil demon, he can do it, but you can't.
At this moment, the Hundred Refining Realm was like a watershed that directly divided them.
In the current situation, if he also possessed the strength of the Hundred Refining Realm, he would definitely be able to cooperate with Zhou Chongshan, and they would form a horn around each other on the battlefield to launch an offensive against the evil demon.
But the reality is that he didn't.
"I'm ready."
After taking the reins, Zhou Chongshan moved swiftly and flipped over to ride on the back of the speed dragon.
He did not have mature velociraptor riding skills, but if he just sat on the back of the velociraptor and followed Tash and the others, he could still do it.
Without further ado, Tash led the team to move.
The cavalry's mounts have all been professionally trained and have the ability to follow, so Zhou Chongshan only needs to make sure he sits firmly throughout the whole process.
In this complex ruins environment, the advantages of the dragoons were highlighted.
Maintaining a fairly high mobility efficiency, they quickly and successfully approached their target.
Zhou Chongshan estimated the distance, pulled the reins, signaled the swift dragon to stop, and jumped off the swift dragon's back. In the following battle, he couldn't ride the swift dragon.
"May the Emperor be with you."
Taking the reins handed over by Zhou Chongshan, Tash quickly led his swift cavalry to retreat to the periphery, preparing for the cover operation that might be needed at any time.
After watching Tash and the others leave, Zhou Chongshan took off the round shield behind him. To be cautious, he planned to test the situation first with his sword and shield equipment that was both offensive and defensive.
With a deep breath, Zhou Chongshan's gaze fell on the evil demon that was tearing apart the vine prison in the distance.
"May the Emperor be with me."
As he whispered, Zhou Chongshan seemed to gain strength from it, and his expression became more determined.
He took a step forward and his swift movement immediately unfolded.
As a warrior in the Hundred Refinements Realm, his physical functions allowed him to move around in the ruins as if he were walking on flat ground.
During this time, as the distance continued to shorten, the evil demon that was constantly tearing at the vine prison seemed to sense something.
At that moment, its huge head suddenly twisted, and its two eyes like blood lanterns locked directly on Zhou Chongshan who was approaching.
The invisible feeling of oppression immediately made Zhou Chongshan tense up.
Without even a moment's hesitation, the demon opened its bloody mouth, and a large number of tentacles rushed out of its mouth and grabbed Zhou Chongshan! This scene was not the first time he had seen it, but when he faced it directly, the terrifying feeling of oppression was indeed different!
Without time to think, Zhou Chongshan exerted force with his feet, and his body flew out like an arrow, trying to avoid the tentacle attack of the evil demon.
But those who are familiar with the evil methods know that this attack is not so easy to avoid.
Almost at the same time Zhou Chongshan moved, the tentacles that flew out also moved with him, maintaining a rapid momentum and chasing him directly.
This situation was within Zhou Chongshan's expectations. Before he caught the target out of the corner of his eye, his ears had already followed the sound and locked onto the position of the tentacles behind him.
Without any hesitation, in a flash, Zhou Chongshan suddenly turned back. As he turned around, he swung the sword in his hand, which was covered with a special fluorescent layer!
The explosive slash almost created a streak of light. The blade cut off a large number of demon tentacles that were sweeping over it! The energy of the cut tentacles dissipated, and they turned into a pool of smelly pulp as they fell to the ground.
This knife was crucial to Zhou Chongshan, as it proved that his attack on the evil demon was also effective! This made Zhou Chongshan, who was still a little unsure, feel relieved.
The fight did not stop there. After one slash, the remaining tentacles immediately launched a pincer attack on Zhou Chongshan.
Compared to the beginning, Zhou Chongshan now showed a calmness as if he had the overall situation in control.
Faced with the pincer attack, he changed the gesture of his left hand holding the shield, swung his arm, and threw the round shield in his hand directly to the left.
The metal round shield was spinning at high speed and flying out at high speed, just like a harvesting weapon, cutting off large tentacles like mowing grass.
At the same time, Zhou Chongshan kept moving, slashing the tentacles that were attacking from the right side with his sword, then quickly turned around and caught the round shield that was flying back in an arc.
This set of operations is likely to leave many soldiers dumbfounded.
I don’t know if it’s the talent of ‘Weapon Master’ that’s at work, but Zhou Chongshan has always liked to throw the round shield to launch an attack.
In fact, not only the round shield, but also the spear, axe and so on, many things can be turned into throwing weapons in his hands.
In the process, he discovered that the round shield was particularly useful.
Because in daily practice, he found that as long as certain skills were added, the flying round shield could fly back like a boomerang, which could ensure that this piece of equipment would not become a disposable consumable on the battlefield.
Demonstrating his talent as a 'weapon master', Zhou Chongshan quickly incorporated this skill into the battle.
This operation is incredible for ordinary soldiers and even for many generals.
After all, in a battle, they need to concentrate on dealing with the enemy in front of them. Who has the energy to catch the "boomerang" that flies out of them? In addition to skills, this kind of operation also requires two things at the same time, which has already raised the threshold.
