The team began to move under the leader's order.
Zhang Lisheng, Cui Xiaodong, Jin Fusheng, and the rest walked at the front. Captain Hu did not treat this young man who was the first one to notice the unusual situation differently. It was apparent that she thought he was smart but extremely selfish. It would be better to use him as an ordinary pawn.
The night was dark. They continued to move forward in the vast wilderness, giving off a feeling that the road ahead was endless.
Nobody knew how long they had been walking. Just when most of their legs were starting to ache, a faint stench of blood came from the side of the team all of a sudden.
"Watch out, it seems like there's a beast attack." Captain Hu lowered her voice vigilantly and shouted when she smelled the unusual smell. At the same time when she shouted, a few spotted hyenas tore the night apart and charged towards a short but fat young girl at the edge of the team.
The girl walked with heavy footsteps that made people feel tired just by looking at it. Being attacked by the hyenas like a whirlwind, of course, she could not dodge in time when none of her companions came to her rescue. Her throat was bitten right away.
"Bite me? I have nowhere to vent my anger right now. Bite me, bite me, bite me …" However, what happened next was not the girl dying miserably with her neck broken and being dragged away by the hyenas. Instead, she waved both of her fists as if nothing had happened. With a pincer attack, she smashed the head of the hyenas that were biting her throat into a meat patty.
Later on, she punched and kicked, killing all of the hyenas in just a few punches and kicks. She turned around and waved her fist at her companions who were resting while covered in blood and shouted, "Xu Lang, did your wizard gu grow up eating sh * t? It can't even defend itself against a few dogs …"
"What do you think, man? Are you dumbfounded? I've told you that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in our team. It's definitely much safer than you fighting alone." The team stopped temporarily because of this unexpected attack. Old Man Xu pointed at the girl who was howling not far away and showed off to Zhang Lisheng softly while chuckling. It was as if he was the one who killed the hyenas effortlessly.
"Uncle, do you know where that girl came from?" Zhang Lisheng asked casually while smiling.
"That woman's name is Song Jiaojiao. She's not very smart and usually says anything.
According to her, after she became a wizard, her father originally wanted to bring her to a safari park or a walk in the deep mountains and forests to choose a ferocious beast to sacrifice its soul to. However, she impatiently used her pet turtle to refine it into a wizard beast, and in the end, she actually succeeded on her first try. Not only that, after she sacrificed the soul, the pet turtle actually displayed the power of omniscient power. Don't you think this is luck? "
After cultivating the Witchcraft's Gate of Sacrifice and stepping into the threshold, one would be able to choose the ferocious beasts in the mountains and seas to transform into their wizard beasts. They would then extract their souls and incorporate them into their bodies, inheriting the various abilities of these ferocious beasts. After a series of breakthroughs, one would even be able to combine the abilities of several wizard beasts that were sacrificed into one and produce unpredictable changes.
Not only that, but the wizard beasts that were sacrificed by the Gate of Sacrifice's wizard beasts could also be changed at any time, making it hard to guess their abilities. This time, the wizard beasts that they encountered would be able to defeat the enemy in close combat, but the next time, they might be able to cast a spell that could hurt the enemy without leaving a trace.
However, due to the reason that the ratio of ferocious beasts that could be refined into wizard beasts was much lower than the ratio of insects that could be refined into wizard gu, it was already very good for a wizard who cultivated the Gate of Sacrifice to be able to refine a wizard beast for soul sacrifice. It was no longer realistic for them to be picky and change their beasts from time to time. Come to think of it this way, successfully sacrificing a pet turtle and even obtaining the omniscient power was indeed much harder than winning the lottery.
Upon hearing Old Man Xu's words, Zhang Lisheng smiled again. "This is indeed luck."
The moment the words' luck 'and' destiny 'were reversed, it meant that the young man and the old man's attitude towards this matter was completely different. However, Old Man Xu did not notice anything unusual and just seized the opportunity to ask, "Boy, the wizard beast that you sacrificed your soul to also has omniscient power, right? Otherwise, how could it hear the sound from so far away?"
"Nope, I cultivate the Witchcraft's Gate of Death."
"Witchcraft's Gate of Death? Stop bullshitting! You look like someone who cultivates the Gate of Death, but what kind of nutritious food do you need to eat to allow you to consume your blood essence to raise your wizard gu while practicing martial arts at the same time?" Old Man Xu curled his lips and looked at the skinny young man beside him. Without warning, a thought flashed across his mind. "D-Don't tell me that you've also obtained a wizard gu that can only provide omniscient power to its owner's body just like Team Leader Cui?
How can there be such a coincidence in this world?! "
Zhang Lisheng shook his head speechlessly and quietly watched the remains of the coyotes at the edge of the team being recycled by Consultant Zheng, unsealing and restoring the living corpses that had fused into one.
This scene explained the doubts in the young man's heart. The coyotes were scavengers and hunted during the day, so it did not make sense for them to sneak an attack on a large group of humans who were hurrying in the wilderness in the middle of the night. All of this was manipulated by someone.
Not long after, the team began to move forward. Old Man Xu pestered Zhang Lisheng and whispered, "Boy, you can't just leave half of what you're saying. It's like a cat scratching my heart when I hear it …"
"Uncle, isn't it obvious? I've transformed," Zhang Lisheng said and stopped moving. Countless blue and yellow scales that were round on the outside and square on the inside appeared on his body, causing his body to expand to three meters long.
Then, he opened his mouth wide to the size of a watermelon and bellowed out a cyclone that tore through the sound barrier.
The cyclone disappeared in a flash. A few seconds later, a blazing fire suddenly ignited several kilometers away. Then, an ear-piercing sizzling sound of air tearing resonated in everyone's ears, along with the roar of an explosion.
After a while, the sound of intense crossfire resonated from the place where the fire was ignited, causing half of the sky to be illuminated in a red color.
"My, my man, you, you, you …"
"Those Africans asked me to be the bait, so I blew up their armored vehicles first to break the standoff between them and the supernatural realm's people. I'll let these two groups fight first, and this is reciprocation for courtesy."
"T-Then why don't you attack the supernatural realm's people first?"
"I don't know what kind of ballistic detection instrument those supernatural realm's people have anyway. If I attack them first, wouldn't I be done for if I'm seen through?" Zhang Lisheng stared at the distant fire that soared into the sky without blinking, not caring that he had become the focus of the team.
Under the young man's gaze, two to three kilometers away, many warriors wearing thin brown leather armor rode on pure black two-wheeled motorcycles with heavy and huge tires. The bodies of the motorcycles were streamlined in the shape of water droplets. The milky white steam emitted from the rear exhaust pipes formed thin lines as they performed tactical evasive maneuvers beside the two giant tanks.
While avoiding the artillery fire of the South African government forces, they used a thick barrel and a short barrel installed at the front of the motorcycles. When the barrel was fired, it would scatter into four pieces with a 'bang' and emit a burst of hot steam before shooting out egg-sized stone bullets. Then, they would reassemble the strange firearms to retaliate.
The height of the tank that was covering these knights was more than three meters, about eight meters long, and more than three meters wide. The turret at the top was connected to three barrels with a diameter of nearly 50 centimeters. It seemed that the ammunition had been exhausted, so it did not fire. The rough shell armor was already covered with potholes and bullet marks, but it still allowed the motorcycles to go up and down as though it was on flat ground, looking very magical.
Facing the enemies that were slowly approaching, the South African government forces also appeared to be calm. Their infantry fired intensively under the cover of the slowly retreating armored vehicles, suppressing the attack speed of the enemy's motorcycles.
At the same time, the armored vehicles, on the other hand, adopted the form of a concentrated attack, pouring artillery fire on the supernatural realm's tanks. It was apparent that they wanted to destroy the enemy's tanks with brute force and then annihilate them easily.
"There's nothing to be afraid of at such a level," After observing the performance of both sides for a while, Zhang Lisheng breathed a sigh of relief and muttered.
"Do you have any way to deal with it, young man?" Consultant Zheng, who had somehow stood beside him, asked with a smile.
"With a Grand Wizard like you here, there's no room for me to make a move. I just feel that the combat power of those supernatural realm's people seem to be …"
"Young man, you're still talking nonsense even now. Unfortunately, I've already misjudged you twice, so I won't be fooled by you again."
"You've misjudged me twice?"
"In the hotel lobby, when I cast my spell, you were the only one who was not afraid and even thought that it was a rare opportunity. At that time, I felt that you have a heart that leads straight to the path of transcendence. Even though you've gone astray to practice martial arts to strengthen your body, your future is still promising, so for this reason, I gave you some pointers in the car.
I didn't expect that you've actually already transformed … "
"So this is what you meant when you said I have a treasure?"
"What do you think, young man? Don't underestimate the heart of transcendence. Other than a great opportunity that can't be forced, if you don't have the heart of transcendence, then everything else will be in vain."
When Consultant Zheng was lecturing Zhang Lisheng, a long bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the night sky. Under the illumination of the dazzling electric light, hundreds of oval-shaped aircraft shining faintly flew across the sky at a height of several thousands of meters, seemingly slow but actually fast.
"What's that in the sky?" Someone in the team inadvertently glanced at the strange aircraft in the sky and could not help but exclaim in panic.
Zhang Lisheng was stunned. Looking at the sky at the same time with Consultant Zheng, both of them just happened to see that under the cover of the dark clouds, two aircraft that were constantly rotating like goose eggs with strong steam exuding from their bodies had separated from the group and dived down, becoming bigger and bigger. In the end, the size of a house fell into the position of the South African government army.
After that, the aircraft exploded silently but violently, spraying out countless strong milky white steam that blew the armed armored vehicles of the South African government army into pieces as if they were made of paper. As for those black soldiers, before the armored vehicles were shattered, they had already been steamed by the high temperature and blasted into meat paste by their own boiling blood.
"The flying bombs of the supernatural realm's people are so powerful! More than 100 of them are enough to destroy half of Cape Town!" Zhang Lisheng could feel the warm and humid air that was faintly mixed with the fragrance of meat coming towards them from thousands of meters away. With a dull gaze, he muttered, "This matter is serious now."
"That's right, young man! We're really unlucky! To think that we actually sneaked into Cape Town on the eve of the supernatural realm's general attack!" Consultant Zheng chuckled and chimed in.
