Hellsword's eyebrows did not even twitch. He asked his subordinate, "Where will he appear? Is it a trap? Is there a Yuanying lurking around him? "
"It doesn't look like a trap," his subordinate replied.
"We've locked onto the general location of all the enemy Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators who have entered the battlefield," his subordinate said. "Also, the extraterrestrial devils in the Western Lake District have arrived. This is the biggest disaster of the devils in our plan. It has attracted the attention of most Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators.
"Sand Scorpion, on the other hand, is moving in the opposite direction from all the Yuanying. He seems to have been blinded by his fury and is on a killing spree without a destination!
"All the critical information has been sent to Master Zhuang's crystal processor through the 'dark net'!"
Communication between space pirates was of paramount importance when they were hunting. In order to avoid being monitored by the Spiritual Nexus of the Cultivators, they had gradually developed certain techniques to establish temporary networks on the battlefield during their thousands of years of hunting.
Such temporary networks were unpredictable and hard to capture. Since they were highly anti-jamming, they were known as the 'dark net'.
The light beam in front of Hellsword's eyes was changing at a frequency of ten times per second. His eyeballs were spinning nonstop as if they had been installed with vibration rune arrays, too.
Five seconds later, Hellsword narrowed his eyes. A tuft of yellow hair was bouncing on a red mole on the corner of his mouth.
"Ghost Needle, Gray Fox, and Thorny Shadow, stop the assassination immediately."
Hellsword gave the order to three of the 'Eight Blades of Black Spider'. "Sand Scorpion has shown up. He is the most valuable and the weakest enemy in the battle.
"Before, he had been hiding in Flying Star University. There were too many experts there. It was hard to kill him. We failed several times. One of the Core Formation Stage Cultivators was killed, too.
"If we can catch him before we retreat, we will. That will be for the best!
"Ghost Needle and Gray Fox, your mission is not to assassinate him but to cruise in the ten square kilometers nearby. Stay alert. Once there is any sign that the Yuanying is approaching Sand Scorpion. Remember, if there is any sign, abandon the assassination immediately and retreat separately.
"Thorny Shadow, you do it!"
"Although Sand Scorpion is not weak, he is wearing a Basic Crystal Suit. There is no evidence that he is an expert in Crystal Suit. His strength has been greatly reduced! "
On the screen, a man whose face was shrouded in black mist nodded. "Yes, Elder Zhuang!"
Pausing for a moment, he asked hesitantly, "Sand Scorpion killed the Mountain King. Why don't you do it yourself, Master Zhuang?"
Hellsword coughed a couple more times before smiling and saying, "I'm seriously injured, so I need to return to base to recuperate. I'll leave it to you. "
Hellsword cut off the communication and saw the three assassins in the Core Formation Stage on the light beam. He dashed to where Sand Scorpion was at the moment.
Hellsword smiled and walked out of the darkness.
But instead of going to the secret base, he moved toward Sand Scorpion stealthily.
…
"Roar roar roar roar!"
On the bloodstained street, in the bloody dusk, in the burning ruins, Li Yao, wearing the Gold Wolf Battlesuit, was holding a super chainsaw saber more than two meters long in each hand. Killing in all directions!
This kind of powerful weapon was originally prepared for super strong men. It was said that even the armor of a small starship could be cut open. It was not hard to imagine how powerful it was!
But that was not the end of it. Around Li Yao, sixteen Floating Six-barreled Rotary Cannons were moving unpredictably. Fire was dancing crazily, and lightning was rumbling!
Two sabers and sixteen giant cannons. Almost a thousand extraterrestrial devils were squeaking and fleeing in panic under the bombardment.
Li Yao's crazy laughter leaked out of the gaps of the Gold Wolf Battlesuit. The flames of spiritual energy around him were fluctuating unsteadily, too.
It was a sign that he was in a state of extreme excitement at this moment!
From the dark windows of the tall buildings on the two sides of the street, three sniper rifles extended out silently and locked onto him.
When the sixteen Floating Six-barreled Rotary Cannons ran out of bullets, and the last extraterrestrial devil was torn into pieces, and he was most relaxed, the three sniper rifles were fired!
Two black bullets and a rushing electric arc reached his face from three different angles in the blink of an eye!
Li Yao seemed to have grown eyes on the back of his head. He had been prepared for this. His body flashed weirdly, and the two bullets passed through his shadow, crashed into each other, and exploded brutally!
The last electric arc hit Li Yao's breastplate precisely.
Li Yao simply allowed the electric arcs to surround him. He did not even shake. Retracting the sixteen Floating Six-barreled Rotary Cannons, he turned into a streak of brightness and dashed to the corner of the street in a zigzag pattern, avoiding the snipers after a few leaps and bounds.
"Huala!"
When he reached the corner of the street, four melee Crystal Suit suddenly burst out of the rubble, the ruins, and the manhole.
Two of the heavy Crystal Suit that looked like meat shields lunged at him, trying to stall him without bothering about anything. The other two light Crystal Suit darted toward the gap below the ribs of the Gold Wolf Battlesuit, one on the left and the other on the right!
Li Yao roared. The 'wolf head' embedded on the breastplate of the Gold Wolf Battlesuit suddenly opened its mouth. A cluster of spiritual energy that had been stored for a long time rushed out and blew a shocking hole in the chest of the first meat shield Crystal Suit!
In the meantime, he shook his left hand, and the Battleship Slicing Saber more than two meters long was broken into pieces. The broken pieces darted toward the assassin on his left side overwhelmingly.
In the meantime, Li Yao was holding a short sword that was less than half a meter long!
A sword within a sword, and a saber within a saber. The Battleship Slicing Saber turned out to be a 'sheath' with a hidden weapon inside!
The shorter the sword was, the more dangerous it was. The assassin had cut into Li Yao's melee range, where it was difficult for the Battleship Slicing Saber to exert force.
But for the short sword, it was the best attack range.
The assassin's attention was distracted by the broken pieces of the Battleship Slicing Saber. When he realized what was going on, his heart was already cold. The short sword had pierced deep into his heart, and after a 'beep', it exploded!
Inside the short sword, there was a crystal bomb that would explode the moment it pierced into a human body. Although it could only be used once, it was definitely a piece of deadly magical equipment!
The assassin's entire heart, together with the left side of his chest, was blown into smithereens!
In the blink of an eye, two assassins were killed.
The remaining two assassins were dazed for a moment. They didn't know what to do.
Li Yao sneered and stepped forward. He was about to kill them.
However, from the two assassins and the two corpses … Even from Li Yao's own shadow, a weird shadow suddenly dashed out!
It was as if … The shadows of the five assassins had all come to life and condensed into unstoppable venomous stingers, which were aimed at the critical parts of Li Yao's body!
Li Yao was caught unprepared by the attack. He managed to dodge three of the black stingers, but the remaining two stingers still pierced into his flesh. He grunted in excruciating pain.
Five black shadows condensed in mid-air. They outlined a Crystal Suit that was almost pure black.
The Crystal Suit was made of a special light-absorbing paint. People's eyes would be completely swallowed by it, and they would not be able to see the details clearly. They would just be like a black silhouette.
The two shadows that sank into the gaps of the Gold Wolf Battleship turned out to be two short blades that were as thin as cicada's wings that extended from the arms of the Black Crystal Suit.
It was the method of 'Thorny Shadow', one of the top assassins of Black Spider Tower and one of the Eight Blades of Black Spider!
Li Yao seemed to be going crazy because of the pain. The wolf head on his breastplate opened its bloody mouth. Dazzling flames of spiritual energy burst out again. The other saber was waved into a storm, too.
However, the moment before the aura of the saber flashed, the Black Crystal Suit split into almost ten shadows again. They splashed everywhere.
The shadow saber was pulled out. Two arrows of blood spurted out from the ribs of the Gold Wolf Battleship!
Li Yao switched between attack and defense very quickly. Seeing that he missed the target, he turned around and fled without any hesitation.
He did not flee to the street. Instead, he crashed into a wall next to the street.
Under the surging spiritual energy, the walls made of bricks and rebars were no different from toilet paper.
The five shadows were condensed again. Thorny Shadow sneered and chased after him.
The Gold Wolf Battleship. Crashing through one wall after another, he fled in a hurry in the maze-like building.
The Black Crystal Suit. It appeared in midair now and then, it hid in the darkness now and then, it followed him like a shadow.
The distance between them was gradually shortened.
"Huala!"
The front of the Gold Wolf Battleship suddenly glowed. As it turned out, Li Yao had crashed out from the other side of the building. There was a new street in front of him!
Thorny Shadow was overjoyed. He accelerated to his maximum speed!
At this moment —
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! In the building behind Li Yao, countless directional crystal bombs that had been set up in advance were all detonated. Hundreds of flames interweaved behind him and covered Thorny Shadow entirely.
Of course, the crystal bombs did not cause any serious damage to the assassin in the Core Formation Stage. But they had completely exposed his body and jammed his crystal cameras and crystal processors.
Caught unprepared, his speed and reaction were half a beat slower.
It was exactly that 'half a beat'!
Thorny Shadow felt that an undersea volcano was erupting violently right next to him. Endless hot streams and magma were spurting out, raising surging tides on the surface of the ocean!
The alarms that the crystal processor sent out almost deafened him.
The target's speed, agility, and strength were all improved to a whole new level!
In 0.5 seconds, the crystal camera outlined the appearance of the enemy's Crystal Suit.
The enormous body size, the cold equipment, the violent aura … Everything was telling Thorny Shadow that it was not the Gold Wolf Battleship Suit!
"Midair Armor Change!"
Thorny Shadow was scared out of his wits.
He did not expect that the Iron Plateau native who was absolutely not adept at using the Crystal Suit in the intelligence was actually an expert in Crystal Suit who was adept at the marvelous' midair Armor Change 'technique. In the blink of an eye, he had changed into a faster, stronger, and fiercer Crystal Suit!
Thorny Shadow immediately realized that it was a trap, a fatal trap that was specially prepared for him, one of the 'Eight Blades of Black Spider'!
It was a pity that it was already too late when he realized it.
"Shua!"
The zigzagging, weird aura of the saber pierced into the breastplate and the facial cover of the Black Crystal Suit like a butcher dissecting a cow. Thorny Shadow's head, together with the helmet and the facial cover, flew high into the sky. The blood hesitated for half a second before it spurted out and condensed into a red tree in midair!
However, something else flew into the sky together with Thorny Shadow's head, too.
Li Yao's left arm!
Right when Li Yao launched the fatal attack at Thorny Shadow, a mysterious shadow suddenly dashed out of Thorny Shadow's back and darted at Li Yao's heart!
Li Yao had exhausted all his strength and had no time to change his attack. Caught unprepared, he could only block the attack with his left arm and protect his heart.
