The Vicious Bee Armed Shuttle was equipped with three different beast puppets.
One of them was the Mystic Wolf that Li Yao had met in the Refiners' Registration Examination.
Although the high-speed scouting beast puppet had some shortcomings such as its weak waist and the limited firepower of the crystal railguns on both sides of its body, when there were a large number of them, a pack of dozens of Mystic Wolves could still be quite formidable.
The other one was the Electric Whip Teethed Snake.
The beast puppet, with a weird name, was three meters long and had no limbs. It was like a viper and was best at searching for caves and crevices.
Once it found an enemy, it would lash the enemy like a whip. Spikes made of super alloy would automatically eject from its body and pierce into the enemy's body, tying them up.
In the meantime, it would unleash a high-voltage electric current that was as fast as lightning, paralyzing or killing the enemy.
The Electric Whip Teethed Snake was like a whip that was full of fangs and could generate electricity. It was the sharpest beast puppet in the forest.
The third one was the Shrieking Bat.
The beast puppet was very small in size. It could swim in narrow crevices and caves like a mouse, and it could also glide for a short time by spreading its membrane-covered wings.
Its greatest skill was that it could release special soundwaves. On one hand, it could attack the enemy's mind, making them restless and dizzy.
On the other hand, the soundwaves were an ingenious way of searching. When it encountered an enemy that was emitting spiritual waves, it would send back a special signal, which was even more effective than mystic rays at a short distance.
The Vicious Bee Armed Shuttle, the Mystic Wolf, the Electric Whip Teethed Snake, and the Shrieking Bat formed an impenetrable dragnet and searched back and forth in the forest.
"Squeak! Squeak! "
A few Shrieking Bats let out ear-splitting shrieks, which sounded like iron nails scratching the glass, as they jumped down from the treetops more than ten meters high. They glided agilely in the wind and rain.
"Hiss! Hiss! "
In the grass, the Electric Whip Teethed Snake was slithering fast. It stuck out its tongue now and then to check the temperature in the air.
The tongue of the Electric Whip Teethed Snake was refined with special Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and carved with sensitive temperature-measuring rune arrays. It could sense the most subtle changes in temperature and detect creatures whose temperature was different from the natural temperature. It was also a piece of deadly probe magical equipment.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! "
The Mystic Wolf shook its head and wagged its tail. The crystal railguns on both sides of its body were shining brightly. They were brimming with spiritual energy and were ready to go.
In the sky, the ten Vicious Bee Armed Shuttles had also readied dozens of flying swords, ready to be launched at the slightest disturbance.
The encirclement was getting smaller and smaller.
Under the search of the Venomous Wasps, Mystic Wolves, Electric Whip-Fanged Snakes, and Shrieking Bats, Every hole and crevice in the tree had been turned upside down.
It was even more impossible for them to let go of the pool where Li Yao was hiding.
Li Yao was still motionless. He did not even blink as he stared at the Vicious Bee Armed Shuttle cruising in the sky, calculating its speed, angle, and trajectory crazily.
He was waiting for something to happen.
When the encirclement was only a hundred meters away from him, the pool suddenly swayed weakly.
Broken ripples appeared on the turbid water surface, and two faint muffled sounds came from the air. It was like a crystal bomb exploding at the bottom of the ocean. The sound was dull. It was deep and unbearably sullen.
Then came a crashing sound as the mountains shook and the earth quaked.
It was as if a thunderclap had exploded on the other side of the mountain.
"It has begun!"
Li Yao was refreshed.
Tide Berserker had finally opened fire!
At first, the two muffled noises were the noises of the mines burrowing into the ground and exploding.
Then came the earth-shaking noises, which should be the roars of the Heaven Splitters.
Although the Heaven Splitters could unleash the damage of the Yuanying Monster level, it had to wait for half an hour before it was fully charged. However, they had to store energy for half an hour in advance, which meant that they could only fire once every half an hour.
Now that the Heaven Splitters had been activated, it was definitely not some aimless reconnaissance. It had locked onto the target without any doubt and was about to launch a crazy attack.
"Here's my chance!
"The crystal warships have found at least one Crystal Suit. Until the Crystal Suit is captured or suppressed, they won't be able to notice me! "
Li Yao smiled. He looked at the Vicious Bee Armed Shuttle in the sky with ferocity in his eyes.
"Now, I will show you who is the hunter and who is the prey!"
…
In the command center of the Fifth Fleet …
Shangguan Ce, Ren Xingbei, and other military leaders, as well as Yuan Manqiu, Jiang Sheng, and other representatives of the Cultivators, were all gazing at the pictures on the light beam that had been divided into thousands of segments.
Every picture was the first-person perspective of the crystal warships, the Vicious Bee Armed Shuttle, the Mystic Wolf, the Electric Whip Teethed Viper, and the Shrieking Bat.
Everyone present was a high-level cultivator with tyrannical strength. They were able to monitor hundreds of images at the same time, outlining the whole picture of the actual combat exercise in their minds.
However, they didn't see the first-person perspective of the four Crystal Suit.
Because of the feeble spiritual waves that were transmitted in real time, they could be easily captured, which was not good for their escape.
Therefore, the four Crystal Suit were not connected to the command center via the Spiritual Nexus.
All the information and performance changes of the drill were stored in the mainframe crystal processor of the Crystal Suit for further study after the drill.
It meant that all the Cultivators in the command center were on the crystal warships' side and could only see what Ning Feng saw.
They didn't know where the four Crystal Suit were hiding or what they were doing.
It added a touch of mysteriousness to the intense and thrilling drill.
Thousands of pictures were flashing and scanning the mountains, forests, and rivers.
Suddenly, one of the pictures was blinking crazily.
As if it were contagious, the dozens of pictures nearby started flashing, too.
All the images quickly focused on one spot. Between the crevices of the rocks, a blurry but very obvious figure was outlined.
"The first Crystal Suit has been found!"
"It's the Sword Torrent Battlesuit!"
At this moment, only two hours, twenty-seven minutes, and thirty-six seconds had passed since the crystal warships were set off.
The Cultivators of the three major sword sects sighed at the same time. They held their heads helplessly.
The Cultivators of the other three major sword sects looked at each other and were slightly relieved.
Shangguan Ce's eyelids twitched, but he didn't say anything.
His Adam's apple was rolling up and down. It was a sign that his heart was pounding.
Ren Xingbei's lips were twitching. His eyes were bloodshot. His lips were shivering rapidly, as if he were cursing silently.
The Sword Torrent Battlesuit had been hiding in a cave that had accumulated water because of the rainstorm. The cave had been covered by a thick layer of vines and weeds.
But Sha Yucheng didn't know that his seemingly flawless arrangement had backfired on him. His existence had been exposed instead.
The control chips of the Electric Whip Teethed Vipers and the Shrieking Bats had stored a lot of information about the plants and the environment in the wild. They could tell whether a certain environment was naturally formed or artificially modified.
Although the accuracy was not high, it didn't stop them from conducting a thorough search on the environment that was suspected to have been artificially modified.
After the search, the temperature difference between the Sword Torrent Battlesuit and the environment was immediately discovered.
The Shrieking Bats were attacking with soundwaves, too. They had sensed that a behemoth made of metal was hiding in the cave.
Almost 0.1 seconds later, the information discovered by the beast puppets was transmitted to the Vicious Bee Armed Shuttle.
Another 0.1 seconds later, the information was sent to the command cabin of the crystal warships.
Ning Feng immediately issued an order. Twelve flying swords darted out of the four Vicious Bee Armed Shuttles toward the cave.
The Taiyi Lightning Railguns, which had been ready for a long time, were activated, too. Balls of lightning smashed down one after another.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! "
Two Drills and Landmines. Driven by the power rune arrays, they were also emitting splendid brilliance. Spinning at a high speed, they drilled into the forest!
Ning Feng didn't take any action. But when he did, it was his most fatal move!
Only at this moment did Sha Yucheng realize that he had committed an unforgivable mistake. He was hiding in a cave filled with water. There was no other exit. It was a dead end for him!
He could only roar and rush out against the flying swords, balls of lightning, and Drills and Landmines.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
Hundreds of flying swords whizzed out, circling around his body at high speed. Together with his spiritual shield, they formed an impenetrable net of swords that minced the twelve incoming flying swords into powder. Then, he sprinted toward the place where the Vicious Bee Armed Shuttles and beast puppets were densest.
Sha Yucheng could only hope that he could march into the enemy's formation and use the enemy as a shield so that the crystal warships would hesitate to attack him.
But it was just like quenching thirst with poison.
Once he was entangled by the Vicious Bee Armed Shuttles and the beast puppets, it wouldn't be easy for him to escape.
"BOOM! BOOM! "
The balls of lightning exploded one after another behind him. The blast blew him to the ground like a butterfly in a storm.
"BOOM! BOOM! "
Dull noises like the eruption of a volcano echoed from below the ground.
As it turned out, two Drills and Landmines drilled into the mountain at a high speed and exploded in the depths of the mountain. The blast collapsed countless caves and crevices inside the mountain.
"Zi … Zi …"
The weird noises made Sha Yucheng's hair stand on end. He was scared out of his wits.
He recognized that it was the sound of the Sky Splitters being activated.
A moment later, an ivory pillar of light turned the dark night into a brief day.
But it was not aimed at the Sword Torrent Battlesuit, but at the other side of the mountain.
"What is this?"
Sha Yucheng was still in shock. He pondered for a moment and felt cold all over his body.
"The second Crystal Suit has been discovered!"
The second suit to be discovered was the Mournful Mist Battlesuit.
It had been dragged down by the Sword Torrent Battlesuit.
As a high-speed stealth Crystal Suit that was best at stealth, the Mournful Mist Battlesuit had chosen a cave that led to all directions. There were five exits in different directions and an underground river that led to the outside world.
The Mournful Mist Battlesuit was hiding in the depths of the cave. Its invisibility covered all traces and cut off the reflection of metal and spiritual energy. Even its temperature was lowered to the same level as the surroundings.
Even if the Electric Whip Teethed Vipers and the Shrieking Bats were more than ten meters away, they might not be able to discover its existence.
But unfortunately, it was in the same mountain as the Sword Torrent Battlesuit.
The two Drills and Landmines shook the caves and crevices in the mountain. Many of them collapsed.
One of them was the one that the Mournful Mist Battlesuit was hiding in.
Stones as sharp as bamboo shoots were falling from the ceiling. The cave was about to collapse. The Mournful Mist Battlesuit couldn't do nothing. It could only open its spiritual shield to defend itself.
As a result, it was discovered by a Shrieking Bat at the entrance of the cave.
There were not many Vicious Bee Armed Shuttles around. The Mournful Mist Battlesuit escaped easily.
Without any hesitation, Ning Feng activated the Sky Splitters at the first moment.
