Ye Chong sat in Celest's pilot cabin, his eyes gleaming coldly. Behind Celest was a large group of mechs. Ye Chong had brought all the mechs in the stronghold with him. He did not bring any shooters. The Spiders were too slow, and he did not have much time.
Not only the students in the stronghold, but also the students stationed at Stronghold 2 and 3 received the order to meet up immediately.
"We found signs of large animal activity in Area Z-10." The stronghold's comms room quickly sent the latest report. They had already sent out all the Hummingbirds in the stronghold.
Black Celestial, with its 4,500 mechs, streaked across the sky in a beautiful arc.
"Full speed, target Z-10," Ye Chong ordered coldly to the rest of the army.
The army picked up speed. Engines roared in the night sky, scaring the animals along the way.
"Do you know why we're doing this?" Duan Qian asked Appilok quietly.
Appilok shook his head. "I don't know. However, the master is not in a good mood today. Everyone, be careful. "As a qualified commander, he was more sensitive to his surroundings.
"The master has brought the soldiers from the other two strongholds here. That's scary," another student interrupted.
"Why are you asking so many questions? Just focus on the battle later, "Appilok ordered. Appilok bellowed in a low voice. He had always been the commander, and now, he was starting to have some dignity.
They did not know why the master was doing this, but they could sense that there was something unusual about this mission. This was obvious from the way they flew. The master had always taught them to be careful, to be aware of their surroundings, and to maintain a moderate speed so that they could react quickly. But today, the march of the main army could be said to be arrogant. They turned on their engines and flew at full speed.
The students of today were no longer the rookies of the past. Even when flying at full speed, they were still able to maintain their formation extremely well.
As they approached their target, Ye Chong noticed something strange. Below them, large numbers of animals began to appear. They seemed to be panicking. This caught the attention of the students.
Everyone revealed a vigilant expression and entered a battle-ready state. They were no strangers to Darkniss. None of the survivors would be careless about it. In Darkniss, those who were careless were already dead. Moreover, they had never set foot in the Z-10 area before. It was an extremely dangerous area.
The scene in front of them was extremely shocking. Thousands of wild beasts were running around like headless flies, as if there was something terrifying chasing behind them.
The students immediately felt as if they were facing a great enemy. Among these wild beasts, there were some that they recognized and some that they did not dare to provoke. Most of them were wild beasts that they did not recognize. Their danger was self-evident.
However, Ye Chong was an exception. He was well aware of Rui Bing's strength. If it was just these wild beasts, Rui Bing would not be in such a sorry state. The truly powerful creatures were definitely behind them. However, his spirits were lifted. After all, this meant that he was very close to Rui Bing.
Ignoring the panicking wild animals on the ground, Shen suddenly sped up and flew forward. Seeing this, the students at the back were worried for their master's safety, so they all sped up.
The 4,500 mechs hovered in the sky, forming a dense, oppressive mass. None of the beasts dared to provoke them. The journey was surprisingly smooth.
They had arrived.
Ye Chong saw the 12 Gold Dragons. When he saw the red-tailed beasts, his pupils shrank to the size of a needle. When he saw the snowshade leopard guarding the crack, he finally understood Rui Bing's situation. He finally understood why Rui Bing could not answer him.
Both the Gold Dragons and the red-tailed beasts noticed the strange situation here.
Ye Chong suppressed the rising murderous intent in him and ordered calmly, "Lure them away. Be careful, they are strong."
The students were surprised. This was the first time they had heard the word 'strong' from their master.
Before he could finish, Shen had left the group and was falling towards the ground.
With Ye Chong's order, Appilok quickly came up with his plan.
He ordered without hesitation, "Everyone, forward, target, fire!"
In an instant, all 4,500 mechs fired their laser guns at the same time.
The darkness of Darkniss was lit up.
In the flash of light, Shen landed on the ground. The black-armored giant was as steady as a mountain. The bright red flower on his back was bright and beautiful under the illumination of the light.
It was a spectacular sight to see 4,500 mechs firing at the same time. 4,500 laser beams pierced through the night sky, covering the 12 Gold Dragons and the red-tailed beasts. Compared to a shooter, a mech pilot's aim was not as accurate. To compensate for this, firing at the same time was a very effective method.
After Appilok and the others fired, the whole team retreated without hesitation.
However, they soon realized that their cautious move was a wise one. Only two of the 12 Gold Dragons were slightly injured, while the red-tailed beasts dodged the attack.
However, both the Gold Dragons and the red-tailed beasts were angered by the blatant provocation. Caw! The Gold Dragons shrieked. They flapped their golden wings and charged towards the mechs. They were so fast that the retreating group was shocked. The red-tailed beasts looked at the mechs coldly and followed closely behind the Gold Dragons.
All the mechs sped up and retreated.
This was a ridiculous scene in Darkniss. 12 Gold Dragons and one red-tailed beast were chasing after more than 4,000 mechs.
At first, some of the mechs tried to turn around and shoot, but they were all evaded. While the Gold Eagles and the red-tailed beasts were not much faster than the mechs, the difference in agility was like night and day. They could even dodge light beams, so the students had no choice but to stop this pointless consumption.
Fortunately, the commander had only ordered them to lure the beasts away, not kill them.
Therefore, the students put away their laser guns and ran as fast as they could. The Harmony of the Winter Aria flew at full speed. Both sides were now competing in speed. The situation was at a stalemate, but this was a good thing for the students.
However, they were getting further and further away from the commander.
Celest had landed in a good spot. The crack was right under its feet. From here, they could vaguely see the bottom of the crack.
Ye Chong jumped out of Celest's pilot cabin and into the crack. In the blink of an eye, Celest was already inside his dimension keystone. Rui Bing struggled to hold on.
Her face was still wet with tears, and the corners of her mouth were salty. She could not tell if it was from her tears or sweat. The snowshade leopard was too strong. In such a narrow space, there was no room to dodge. It was more of a contest of strength. She was a woman, after all. Her arms were sore now, but she could not give up. She had Sang Kan and Aried behind her.
But she couldn't give up. She had Sang Kan and Aried behind her. Sang Kan was still unconscious, and Aried could not fight at all.
Most importantly, someone had told her to persevere!
Hold on! She clenched her teeth and persevered. Her arms were so sore that she could barely lift them, and her training clothes were soaked in sweat. Her breathing had become erratic, and every breath she took felt like it was on fire. Her legs were as heavy as lead …
Hold on!
She almost lost her grip on her dagger every time it collided, but she gritted her teeth and took them on.
Time seemed to slow to a crawl …
Suddenly, a few pieces of rock fell from the cliff. A figure descended from the sky like a bird, stopping right in front of her.
"Allow me."
Two words. There was no agitation, no anger, no emphasis, not even a hint of emotion. It was as plain as ever, just like how she was used to. But these two simple words made Rui Bing, who had been struggling to hold on, burst into tears again. She bit her lips tightly, not allowing herself to make a sound. Her legs were about to cramp, and she almost fell to the ground. She reached out with her trembling hands and held on to the cliff wall. She could not bear to look away from the figure, not even for a second. Her tears blurred her vision. All she could see was a blurry figure, but she wanted to see it clearly …
Her tears flowed uncontrollably, flowing down her cheeks and sliding down her cheeks.
Ye Chong crouched down, holding his dagger as he stared at the snowshade leopard. He had seen Rui Bing's movements just now. He knew that she was at her limit.
He did not know why, but he was suddenly filled with killing intent. It was as if something had been building up inside him for a long time, and was about to erupt at that moment.
The snowshade leopard sensed Ye Chong's killing intent, and hesitated. They were intelligent creatures with sensitive senses.
They stared at each other for a full 10 seconds.
"Guardian." Ye Chong's second sentence was short and forceful.
A hand, soaked in sweat, rested on his training garb, and reached out to Ye Chong with an ordinary ring. Rui Bing did not say a word throughout the entire process.
Ye Chong took the ring and summoned Guardian immediately. He was very familiar with this process. There was a lot of sweat in Guardian, left behind by Rui Bing. Guardian had a familiar smell to it, reminding Ye Chong of a distant, unfamiliar, but unforgettable memory. Ye Chong had just entered Guardian, and was already drenched in Rui Bing's sweat. It was obvious how difficult it had been for Rui Bing.
Ye Chong breathed in the unique scent, his face expressionless.
The snowshade leopard stared at the golden man in front of it, confused. It could not understand what was going on.
Ye Chong had no intention of letting it understand either. He felt an indescribable emotion in him.
He made his move!
He pushed off with the tip of his foot and shot towards the confused snowshade leopard like a cannonball, leaving afterimages in his wake. He was full of energy, and his attacks were more lethal.
Compared to Rui Bing's attacks, Ye Chong's were more brutal, more direct, and more powerful! Ye Chong was full of killing intent, and his attacks were merciless.
Ye Chong did not make any feints. His first move was to cut off a few strands of the snowshade leopard's black fur with his dagger. His second move was to hit the snowshade leopard's front paw. The snowshade leopard screamed in pain and froze for a moment.
Before it could react, Ye Chong delivered a silent kick to the snowshade leopard's soft abdomen. Ye Chong did not hold back with this kick. The kick was so powerful that the snowshade leopard was sent flying.
Howl! The scream was cut off abruptly. Ye Chong moved like lightning and caught up with the snowshade leopard that had lost control of its body. He left a bloody hole in the snowy white fur.
Bang. The snowshade leopard, which had been full of vigor a moment ago, fell to the ground like a sandbag. It kicked up a cloud of dust, and its eyes gradually dimmed.
All of this happened in the time it took for a spark to fly off a piece of flint, and it was too fast for the eyes to take in.
Mei Wu was stunned. She knew Ye Chong. Wasn't he a Master Weaponsmith? How could this be … Her eyes fell on the dead body of the snowshade leopard. She felt like she was in a dream. When she saw that someone could hold off the snowshade leopard for so long, she felt like the world was surreal.
Now, someone could kill a snowshade leopard in less than 10 seconds. Heavens! Who was he? Mei Wu felt like she was going crazy.
Rui Bing had calmed down. She was a Jie expert, and had better control over her emotions than most people. Aside from the tear stains on her face, she was no different from usual. She did not have time to wipe them away. Ye Chong's battle had captured her attention.
She could not hide the joy in her eyes. She could feel Ye Chong's improvement. He was stronger and faster than before. Most importantly, he was still alive. He was standing right in front of her.
Ye Chong would not have been able to kill such a strong beast so easily in the past. Just like Ye Chong knew Rui Bing's strength, Rui Bing knew Ye Chong well enough. While Rui Bing knew that Ye Chong was strong enough, she still tried to regulate her breathing. She wanted to recover her strength as soon as possible, so that she could help Ye Chong, no matter how little she could do.
Rui Bing suppressed her longing and closed her eyes. Her expression was serious, and her breathing slowed down.
Given enough time, Jie experts could change a lot of things.
The mechs that were being chased by the Gold Dragons and the red-tailed beast suddenly scattered in different directions.
The red-tailed beast and the Gold Dragons were dumbfounded. Which one should they go after?
Just then, there were still a few hundred mechs protecting their formation. There were two squads. The red-tailed beast went after one squad without hesitation, while the 12 Gold Dragons went after the other squad.
The mechs flew in different directions like meteors. When they could no longer see the red-tailed beast and the Gold Dragons, they suddenly changed direction.
"Back up the commander," Appilok ordered.
All the mechs gathered their strength and flew towards Zone Z-10 at full speed. They did not understand why their commander would provoke these strong beasts. However, they were the commander's followers, and had to follow his orders.
They were all anxious. They had successfully completed the mission given to them by their commander, but they were still worried about their commander's safety. The 4000 mechs reorganized themselves and flew towards the direction where their master had landed.
Ye Chong had successfully killed one snowshade leopard, but he had also angered the other three snowshade leopards guarding the entrance of the crack. They pounced towards Ye Chong without hesitation.
Rumble! The three snowshade leopards moved like three heavy mechs, picking up speed in the narrow crack. The rocks on the ground shattered under their feet, and the huge tremors caused some of the loose gravel on both sides of the rock walls to fall.
Ye Chong's legs were half bent, his body leaning forward slightly, his two daggers crossed, one in front and one behind.
In Guardian, Ye Chong stared at the changing white lines in front of him. His expression was calm, and the daggers in his hands did not tremble at all.
It was getting closer, even closer!
Ye Chong opened his eyes abruptly, and they shone brightly.
With a light sigh, his slightly bent legs suddenly bent like an extreme spring. What followed was an incomparably strong release, and his whole body suddenly leaped out. He was even faster than the snowshade leopards.
There were only two deep footprints where he had been, as if they had been carved into the ground.
The three snowshade leopards grew larger and larger in his vision. They were moving too fast!
Now! Ye Chong bounced up from the ground, pulled back his arms, and lifted his left shoulder. He crashed straight into the first snowshade leopard.
Ye Chong felt a strong force on his shoulder, and his body sank. However, he did not panic. He relaxed his body and allowed himself to fall to the ground.
The first snowshade leopard was sent flying backwards, losing control of its body. Its flight path blocked the path of the other two snowshade leopards.
The two snowshade leopards' quick reflexes were amazing. They did not slow down just because their companion was in front of them. Instead, they pushed off the ground and dashed towards the two sides of the cliff. He used the rock wall as a foothold, but his body shrank in mid-air, narrowly dodging his companion who was sent flying in mid-air. At the same time, he drilled out from both sides of his companion. The whole process was as smooth as moving clouds and flowing water.
Ye Chong's legs were now touching the ground. The force of the impact pushed him deeper into the ground, and his legs bent.
The moment he touched the ground, Ye Chong's leg muscles rippled like waves. The September Lan Family had a muscle control technique! Ye Chong felt a strong force beneath his feet. Thanks to Guardian, the force was powerful to a terrifying degree.
Ye Chong turned into a golden flash and charged towards the two snowshade leopards fearlessly.
*****
Ye Chong and Rui Bing had finally reunited. To celebrate, shouldn't everyone throw out their monthly tickets?
