By the time the Thunder Squad reached the final boss of the Epic-level dungeon, it was already a month later. Just advancing this dungeon took them 10 days. (Read Again and Again | Novel Website)
They could be said to be pioneering, and their casualties didn't have the chance to recover immediately, so they had to be extra careful. This dungeon was in a huge cavern, and the calcium carbonate had turned this place into a dark and dangerous maze. Zombies and other dangerous creatures could appear at any time.
Zhang Zhiyin couldn't help but be ten times more careful when dealing with their situation here.
Not seeing the light of day for ten days and being on tenterhooks caused everyone's mood to be a bit low. Their supplies were also about to run out. Fortunately, the final boss had finally appeared, which meant that they had reached the final stage.
The final boss looked like a mutant, but it was different from the deformed mutants created by E Lab. It seemed to be a perfect fusion, with a scorpion-like lower body, a humanoid upper body and face, and two protruding bone wings on its back. Obviously, they weren't enough to allow it to fly, but the sharp edges and protruding edges of the bone wings showed that they were actually powerful weapons.
The battle was very strenuous from the start. The boss didn't hesitate to display its three abilities: Wind, Earth, and Lightning. Each of its attacks was fierce and violent.
Suddenly, Ah Mu shouted: "Be careful, it's also poisonous! My eyes are a bit blurry. "
Zhang Zhiyin, who was the closest, also felt it. His vision suddenly became blurry and foggy, many people's figures flashed past in front of him — — he saw in the depths of his memories, in the first 'home', his father and mother cursing each other, using the most vicious words to attack each other, and finally fighting. He saw in the funeral parlor, his grandparents lying peacefully side by side, surrounded by emptiness, as if he was the only person left in the world. He saw Yin Nian hugging him and softly saying 'I will never hurt you'. He saw Dr. Yates passing him a cup of tea with a smile, telling him 'He isn't human, he doesn't know love'. He saw Yin Nian strangling his throat with a cold expression, as if he was looking at a stranger. He saw Yin Nian sitting on the sofa, smiling and saying 'Zhiyin, you're finally back'. He took out his gun, pointed it at the person in front of him, and pulled the trigger without a trace of hesitation …
He heard his own voice saying: 'I don't believe in eternity, I don't believe that nothing will ever change. So Yin Nian, let's stop everything at the point where nothing will ever change, okay?' … …
A cry suddenly rang out, waking him up: 'Captain! "
Zhang Zhiyin looked up, the boss' bone wings were only two centimeters away from his chest. He quickly retreated, raised his gun, and warned in a low voice:
"The poison has a hallucinogenic effect, be careful"
This battle was a bitter victory for them. Everyone was more or less injured, as the main fighting force under Zhang Zhiyin, the two vice-captains, Da Dao and Chen Guang were both heavily injured. Zhang Zhiyin only had three flesh wounds, but his condition made his team members very worried. After being poisoned and losing his mind once, he was fighting with his life on the line. He didn't care about tactics or his own safety.
Ever since he had the White Light Association as his cover, Zhang Zhiyin could treat his team members a bit better. For example, he could use Yin Nian's name to give the pills he refined to the support team, which would then be distributed to the team members who needed them. At this point, the entire team had temporarily stopped here to rest and recover their stamina, the support team members were cleaning up the spoils of war, the lightly injured team members had already recovered after taking some pills.
Zhang Zhiyin sat leaning against a stalactite, old Zhu brought two members of the support team over and reported: "Captain, we found a small cave behind us, there seems to be something inside."
Zhang Zhiyin followed them over, the small cave was indeed not big, only about seven square meters, the other three sides were wet but very smooth, only one side was covered in thick stone moss. Some of the green spots had been removed, probably by the support team members who found this place, revealing the thing inside, shining with a silver light.
Zhang Zhiyin said to the people around him: "Retreat a bit, protect yourselves."
He put away the gun, stretched out his hands, and opened them. Faint water vapor condensed on his fingertips, and then a huge ice curtain was pulled open between his palms. It rushed straight to the stone wall, and in an instant, it covered the stone moss, completely covering the thick green color on that side. From afar, it looked like the entire wall had been frozen.
Half a minute later, the sound of the ice wall cracking could be heard, the frozen stone moss also stuck to the ice, falling to the ground together with the broken ice. The true appearance of the thing hidden inside was revealed.
It was a pair of silver wings that flickered with a metallic luster, every gorgeous metallic feather was filled with beauty and power.
Zhang Zhiyin could not help but mutter: "Freedom of the Apocalypse."
The entire Apocalypse's Redemption set was made of special materials, especially the Freedom of the Apocalypse. It was very large and looked very textured, but it was also very light, just like a real wing, or even lighter than that. Let's not talk about the other effects, the Freedom of the Apocalypse had a special property, it could allow the wearer to fly in the sky, fly in the air, or stay in the air. In other words, with it, it was possible to fight in the air for a long period of time. Previously, even wind ability users could fly, but they could not stay in the air and use skills at the same time, because they could not use two active skills at the same time, once they used the flying skill in the air, the effect would disappear.
Zhang Zhiyin could not wait to equip the Freedom of the Apocalypse, for this reason, he handed over a large number of cores to the team like the other members. He had always had the right to obtain the highest grade of spoils of war, but Zhang Zhiyin rarely used the equipment obtained by the team, only exchanging them for various materials.
After returning to the team's temporary encampment, Zhang Zhiyin was about to announce that apart from the guards on duty, the entire team would have a three-day holiday, when he heard Uncle Kao report: "The Alliance headquarters has sent news, they are urgently gathering the Thunder detachment, the details are here, captain."
Zhang Zhiyin frowned when he saw Yun Chu's signature on the electronic summon.
For the past three years, he did not know if it was his misconception, or if it was simply because the Thunder detachment was famous and had the strongest combat power, Yun Chu had always given them the most dangerous missions and did not provide them with sufficient support. Fortunately, with Yin Nian's help, they had always been able to turn calamities into blessings.
In the current situation, Zhang Zhiyin could not shed all pretense of cordiality with the person in charge of the Alliance or go against his orders, but he had formed the habit of frowning whenever he saw Yun Chu's name. Within the Alliance, there were also rumors that the captain of Thunder and the Alliance Leader were not on the same side.
The order this time was even more so, he requested Zhang Zhiyin to split the team into two, one to receive Yun Chu and the other members of the Alliance who were on their way, while the other to scout ahead and clear out some obstacles.
Splitting the team was something that Zhang Zhiyin was most unwilling to do.
He rubbed his forehead and asked Uncle Kao, "Uncle Kao, do you have any news? Do you know where they are going this time, and what is the destination of this' X '? "
Uncle Kao was like an upgraded version of Xiao Jin, he seemed to have one or two old comrades in the Alliance headquarters, as well as on the various battlefronts. Unlike Xiao Jin who went around asking for gossip, Uncle Kao was able to obtain a lot of secret information most of the time.
Uncle Kao bent down and got closer to Zhang Zhiyin, whispering into his ear: "Captain, I heard that the Alliance Leader and the others are going to … Fallen City."
