He spread his arms and twisted his wrists. His two daggers drew two sharp arcs of golden light.
The two snowshade leopards growled and bared their teeth at Ye Chong. Their sharp, white teeth gleamed coldly in the dark. They twisted their bodies and dodged the two arcs of golden light, but a few strands of their black fur were still cut off. The hair that was cut off was blown away by the turbulent air, scattering in all directions.
Ye Chong knew that while he seemed to have the upper hand from the beginning, he was actually in a very dangerous situation. The snowshade leopards were strong. They were quick, agile, and strong. He had killed the first snowshade leopard easily because he had caught it off guard, and also because Rui Bing had exhausted a lot of her stamina by fighting it for a long time. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy to deal with.
The three snowshade leopards were now fully recovered, and their companion's death had angered them. Ye Chong had to face three aggressive snowshade leopards at the same time. It was a dangerous situation.
Calm down, I must calm down. The scene before him slowed down, and his thoughts became clearer. The collision just now had sent one of the snowshade leopards flying, but the impact had numbed his hand. Otherwise, the two snowshade leopards would not have been able to dodge the two arcs of golden light so easily.
The two snowshade leopards landed on the ground and growled. They arched their bodies and charged towards Ye Chong like two cannonballs.
In that instant, Ye Chong's mind was surprisingly clear. He lowered his elbows and struck the head of the snowshade leopard in front of him.
Bang! There was a dull thud. The charging snowshade leopard crashed into Ye Chong's elbows and whimpered in pain.
Elbow attacks were known for their strength in all combat styles, especially when the snowshade leopard had collided head-on.
Ye Chong could sense the damage done to the snowshade leopard. Its body froze for a moment. This was the perfect opportunity. If Ye Chong had another 0.1 second, he could have killed the snowshade leopard with his dagger.
However, Ye Chong could not care less about the golden opportunity before him. He pushed off with the tip of his foot and leaped backward, the dagger in his hand drawing a perfect cross in front of him. In the boundless night, a golden cross appeared out of thin air.
Ping! The clear sound of the collision was so loud that people would think it was the sound of two weapons clashing. However, it was actually the sound of the snowshade leopard's front paw clashing with the two daggers. This showed how tough the claws of the snowshade leopard were.
The immense force, coupled with the fact that Ye Chong was already retreating, made Ye Chong's hands feel like they were struck by a heavy hammer. A strong force surged, and his entire body was about to fall backward.
If he lost control of his body now, Ye Chong knew the consequences would be dire.
The moment his feet touched the ground, Ye Chong stomped on the ground and lifted the dagger in his right hand. The snowshade leopard was extremely agile and it retreated quietly.
Next, the three snowshade leopards attacked Ye Chong's defense like three bolts of black lightning.
Ye Chong held his dagger in front of him like a nail nailed to the ground, blocking all the attacks from the three snowshade leopards.
The daggers were sharp, appearing everywhere around Ye Chong with uncanny accuracy. Every time they clashed, there would be a clear sound of collision. The sounds of collisions did not stop. In the darkness, Ye Chong could see sparks flashing in the air before him. The sparks only lasted for a moment, but they were still very eye-catching.
The snowshade leopards' claws and Guardian's daggers did not seem to be at a disadvantage. Furthermore, they were strong enough to cause sparks to fly every time they clashed.
The three snowshade leopards were very agile. Even in the narrow space of the crack, they could move freely. Moreover, they were very intelligent, so they could coordinate well with each other. This was a headache for Ye Chong. The three snowshade leopards took turns to charge at Ye Chong. They were fast and frequent. Every attack was powerful. Even someone as strong as Ye Chong found it difficult to deal with them.
Ye Chong was immersed in the battle, oblivious to everything else around him. All he could see was the flash of the attacks, which were too fast for him to follow. This was almost his limit. Any bit of absent-mindedness or carelessness would result in death.
Ye Chong's muscles pulsed. His performance was inhuman. He moved so fast that he could not even see his movements. The air before him was filled with sparks.
He was emotionless. His body moved instinctively, so fast that he did not even have to think. His hands, elbows, shoulders, knees, legs - every part of his body was so agile that it looked like he had no bones in his body. He could do all kinds of strange movements with ease.
It was too fast!
Ye Chong was highly focused. Everything before him seemed to be moving in slow motion. He had to find the best spot to attack from among the white lines. This required him to have incredible calculation skills and rich combat experience.
To put it bluntly, he was now at a disadvantage. If they were on flat ground, he could still fight the three snowshade leopards and wait for an opportunity to strike. However, in this narrow crack, he did not have much room to dodge. No, he could not dodge at all. Behind him, there were people he had to protect.
Ye Chong clenched his teeth. All he could do now was to fight with his tenacity and endurance, to see who could last longer.
His hands didn't dare to slow down in the slightest. Any slight opening would only lead to one result, and that was, the opening would become bigger and bigger, and eventually, he would lose.
10 minutes!
Ye Chong maintained his speed at an alarming rate. His performance so far was almost perfect. If killing the first snowshade leopard was a testament to his aggressive nature, then killing the first snowshade leopard was a testament to his aggressive nature. Against the three snowshade leopards' frenzied attacks, Ye Chong, who could not retreat, displayed his tenacious defense.
The powerful attacks were so fast that they could not be seen with the naked eye, but there was only one result - a sudden stop!
20 minutes passed! Ye Chong's defense was still flawless, impenetrable. The three snowshade leopards did not manage to break through his defense even once.
Inside the Guardian mech, Ye Chong's face was abnormally red. His eyes were wide open, and his facial muscles were twitching uncontrollably. Beads of sweat slid down his face, which was almost distorted.
He was at his limit. He believed that if the snowshade leopards stopped attacking now, he would not even have the strength to stand.
However, he was not ready to give up. He did not believe in giving up. In a situation where his physical strength was almost exhausted, his brain still maintained a trace of calmness.
The snowshade leopards had also slowed down! Ye Chong, who was always sensitive to combat, did not miss this important detail. The snowshade leopards were strong, but they were not limitless. As the attacking side, they were draining more of their stamina than Ye Chong.
They slowed down, and their strength decreased. They panted heavily, but their eyes were still on Ye Chong, full of resentment. To them, the teardrop mineralite was …
The golden Guardian was like a tireless machine. It did not stop for even a moment. They had never seen such a strong and tenacious creature before. As the top of the food chain, they had the right to comment on Ye Chong.
The three snowshade leopards stared at Ye Chong from afar. They panted heavily, their bodies hunched as they stood in a row.
The d * mned gold man was still stuck in the middle of the crack.
Ye Chong was exhausted. He felt like he was losing control of his muscles. He could no longer move his muscles as he did earlier. Under his majestic and unmoving body, his legs began to tremble uncontrollably, but from the outside, not the slightest clue could be seen.
D * mn it! I'm cramping! Ye Chong's expression changed. The muscles in his legs had been under great pressure. After all, they were the ones that cushioned the impact.
Now, he was at his limit!
Rui Bing had recovered some of her strength. Her eyes were filled with worry. She knew how hard it was to endure for the past 20 minutes. One snowshade leopard was enough to exhaust her, and Ye Chong had to face three snowshade leopards at the same time. Three energetic snowshade leopards attacked him at the same time.
Guardian covered Ye Chong's body, so Rui Bing could not see his expression. However, Rui Bing could see that Ye Chong's movements were slowing down. This made her very worried.
However, she did not know that Ye Chong was already at the end of his rope. To her, Ye Chong was undefeatable. Whether it was in the past or now, whether it was in the Five Galaxies or here, she had full confidence in Ye Chong.
Even so, she was ready to support him at any time.
Fighting side by side with Ye was her favorite thing to do.
"Fire!"
The sky suddenly lit up with a blinding light. Beams of light descended from the sky. In the blink of an eye, the entire crack was filled with beams of light. The three snowshade leopards did not even have time to howl before they disappeared into the light beams.
In front of Ye Chong was a neat rectangular depression. The depression was at least three meters deep, and the charred rocks were giving off a few wisps of smoke. The depression extended from the ground in front of Ye Chong all the way to the crack. The walls on both sides of the depression were also charred.
Ye Chong looked up. In the sky, countless mechs were stacked on top of each other, all pointing their laser guns at the crack. They were the ones who had fired at the same time.
Ye Chong heaved a sigh of relief and retreated from Guardian.
Rui Bing saw Ye Chong's pale face and quickly went up to him.
Ye Chong said, "Let's go back. You can have Guardian." He took off Guardian and handed it to Rui Bing.
Rui Bing took the inconspicuous ring. Her expression was calm, but her hands were clenched tightly.
"Young sir, this is a teardrop mineralite," Sang Kan's voice reached Ye Chong's ears.
Only the Sang Tribe would call him Little Mister. Ye Chong turned around. Sang Kan was holding Mei Wu's backpack.
"You're from the Sang Tribe?" Ye Chong could not help but ask.
Sang Kan had recovered from his coma, but there were still traces of blood at the corner of his mouth. He bowed slightly and said in a respectful tone, "Yes."
"Then follow me for now."
"Yes."
To Ye Chong, the Sang Tribe was a trustworthy people. Sang Kan was so excited by this that his injuries did not seem to matter. The Sang Tribe was physically strong. They had been fighting against nature for a long time, so these injuries were nothing. It was an honor to follow their young sir.
Appilok and the rest did not descend from the sky. Ye Chong had asked them to prioritize safety in battle. He never cared about formalities.
They had arrived just in time. If they had arrived any later, Ye Chong would have been in danger.
Appilok was the one in charge of this amazing volley. More than 4,000 mechs took part. These mechs all floated above the fissure, stacked on top of each other. To ensure sufficient firepower, each mech only had a small angle of fire. The 4,000 mechs were all focused on the fissure, which was less than 10 meters long.
That was how they managed to achieve such a devastating result.
To ensure Ye Chong's safety, the mech pilots near Ye Chong were all experts with shooting scores above 95.
Winning with one strike, Appilok's qualities as a mature commander were becoming more and more complete.
"Let's go." Ye Chong did not stay for long. This was not the place to catch up. Besides, he was not in the habit of catching up.
Ye Chong regained his strength after a breather. The battle just now was too intense. He did not even have a chance to catch his breath.
When Mei Wu saw the mechs, she was dumbfounded again. Everything she saw today was so unreal. From the very beginning, she already felt that Rui Bing and Sang Kan were incredible. Ye Chong surprised her even more. It was hard to imagine that a Master weaponsmith could kill a snowshade leopard, and then survive the attacks of three snowshade leopards for 20 minutes, unscathed.
A flying giant in the sky … and a giant laser gun that was thicker than a spider's laser beam … They looked like they were made of gravity …
Mei Wu felt that everything she knew about Ye Chong had been turned upside down.
Ye Chong did not ask Mei Wu. He had too many questions that needed answers, but this was not the right place to ask.
The black Celest stood tall like a mountain. Its half-closed eyes exuded a majestic aura. Rui Bing looked even more alluring in her Guardian. She sat quietly on Celest's broad shoulders.
Ye Chong piloted Celest back to the stronghold with Rui Bing in tow. Back at the stronghold, Ye Chong's first order was, "Send two teams to lure them into the stronghold."
The defensive firepower of the current fortress was far stronger than it was in the past. They could use the stronghold's defenses to deal with the red-tailed beasts and the 12 Gold Dragons. Ye Chong liked to solve problems in the most efficient way possible.
When Mei Wu saw the huge stronghold, she looked like she had just swallowed an egg.
When, when, when was this built? Why did she not know? This place was very close to the cave she lived in.
When she saw Sha Ya, she calmed down a little. Mei Wu had always been confident in her own strength, but now she felt weak. No, it was all because the enemy was too strong, she comforted herself.
The 12 Gold Dragons chased after the hundreds of mechs, leading them into the stronghold without a word. The Gold Dragons, perhaps driven by the killing frenzy, or by being led around in circles by the hundreds of mechs, charged towards the stronghold without hesitation.
Without any hesitation, after all the golden birds entered the effective shooting range, the fortress's defensive firepower suddenly opened fire.
The dense beams of light in the sky intertwined together, enveloping all the Golden Birds within.
Were these the Gold Dragons, the rulers of the skies? Mei Wu stared blankly at the 12 Gold Bird corpses on the holographic screen. A chill ran down her spine, and she felt like she had fallen into an icehouse.
It was terrifying!
Ten minutes later, the six-fingered red-tailed beast was lured over. However, it was much stronger than the unintelligent Gold Dragons. It stopped in its tracks, just outside the range of the stronghold's defenses.
"Enlarge the image," Ye Chong ordered.
The image of the red-tailed beast was zoomed in on the holographic image.
The dark red arrowhead tail was a testament to the strength of the red-tailed beast. Six fingers. That was the highest level red-tailed beast Ye Chong had ever killed.
He remembered clearly that the six-fingered red-tailed beast was the leader of the red-tailed beast "horde". The strange scene on that day was etched deeply into Ye Chong's memory.
If a six-fingered red-tailed beast was strong enough to be the leader of a "horde", then what about this red-tailed beast?
Where did it come from? Was it the leader?
