The pressure Zeus exuded was exceedingly immense. His pair of hawk-like and wolf-like eyes seemed capable of dissecting every thought in one's mind.
Every time he took a step closer to someone, it was as if he was giving them a hard push, forcing them to retreat!
What kind of immense might and pressure was this?
Moreover, for Skull to be able to contend against Zeus, his prowess was definitely out of the ordinary. His tall and sturdy body exuded a terrifying aura of iron and blood, as though needles were stabbing into one's pores.
Upon seeing him, one couldn't help but harbor thoughts of retreating!
The pressure these two individuals exuded when they were separated was so immense, what more when they were sandwiched in the middle by their trusted party. It was as though they were being grinded by a millstone, causing one to feel like their bones were being pulverized.
Zi pursed her lips tightly as her eyes flickered with unwillingness. She wasn't a person who gave up easily. Yet under such circumstances, no matter how many ways she thought of to escape, it was as though she had slammed into a towering wall and was rebounded back!
Indeed, Sheyan's scheme was truly formidable, directly inflicting heavy losses to Glory Party's Prophet Finarsih. Yet, neither Zi nor Sheyan had anticipated this. Glory Party would actually join forces with Skull Party. Moreover, Judas of the veteran Skull Party was an expert who wasn't the slightest bit inferior to Finarsih in this aspect!
If those two individuals joined forces, in addition to the support of other mage type contestants, they truly possessed the strength to temporarily deceive the realm.
In actual fact, Zi's Skywalker ability, 'Threads of Time', was a different approach to achieve the same result. Since Zi possessed such an ability, it wouldn't be strange for the two parties to have a similar effect if they joined forces.
At this moment, Sheyan noticed Sable. His face was ashen, as though he had aged by ten years. Sheyan instantly realized that Sable and Zi had undoubtedly accepted the same mission of searching for the 'Mosquito Amber'. Since Zi had completed her mission, his mission would naturally fail. As for the punishment for mission failure, it was a compulsory deduction of 50,000 utility points and a terrifying 20% drop in all attributes!
Skull slanted his head and coldly glared at Sheyan. Then, he fished out half a steel pipe and chewed on it like sugarcane, before viciously spitting out the steel dregs in his mouth.
"So this is the weak brat that caused us to suffer such disastrous losses? Judas? "
Judas was currently wearing a strange looking priest's robe. His skinny and crooked body was curled up within the robe. His hands weren't exposed and he didn't seem to have made any movements. Instead, he had already approached Skull's side and spoke sinisterly.
"Yes, why don't you verify it, boss?"
After speaking, Judas abruptly retrieved a large transparent glass bottle. Shockingly, that bottle actually contained a human head. That person's skull had been peeled open, revealing a deathly pale brain. Only the face could be distinctly distinguished. It was indeed Lieutenant Colonel Wester, the one they had previously interacted with!
The moment the Lieutenant Colonel's head saw Sheyan, it immediately screamed in an inhuman voice, "Hey!
"It's him, it's him!"
While Lieutenant Colonel Wester was speaking, a shockingly large fiery shadow fluttered behind Judas. It was an astonishing sight, and the formless pressure emitted from his body wasn't the slightest bit inferior to Zi's!
Skull coldly glared at Sheyan, as he chomped down on a huge steel pipe. He then icily declared.
"Nobody dares to make a fool of me, nobody can make a fool of me! Brat, you've done well. You've used me as a chess piece, so I've decided to use the most fervent way to get rid of you. Only by trampling on you under my boots can I dispel the anger in my heart. "
Sheyan didn't show the slightest hint of stage fright, as he earnestly smiled and replied.
"I'll wait, I'll await."
"Hahahaha!" Skull threw his head back and laughed maniacally. "You've got guts!"
Zeus stared at Zi with an expression as though he wanted to personally shatter his most beloved vase. Sighing, he gently shook his head and turned around. Instead, the Metals Professor Fu Lyanna smiled delightedly like a blooming flower.
"Zi, I heard you love black tulips. Next year on this day, I'll send one to your grave."
Zi bit her lips tightly. She had never felt such despair before. Even when her entire party was annihilated, and she was betrayed to the point where she had to fight on her own, she still fought with all her might and fled with all her might. In her heart, there was always a strand of hope!
But, right now,
Right now, she was being encircled by two formidable parties.
Right now, she was being encircled by two high tier MTs (high tier was relative to Zi. Based on their levels, they were merely beginners)!
Finally, Zi felt the despair of being at the end of the road with nowhere to go!!
A despair as deep as the abyss!!
Don't talk about her being alone, even if her Illume-union was at their peak, they would still be annihilated!!!!
At this moment, Skull wanted to say something, but the Metals Professor Fu Lyanna had already stepped forward with a sneer.
Previously, when Skull and Zeus were speaking, they had cleverly maintained a distance of 250 metres from Sheyan and the rest. Not a centimetre more, not a centimetre less.
This was because this distance was publicly recognized as a safe distance between contestants. At this distance, the accuracy of both parties would be greatly reduced. Even an agility specialist would be able to slow down for 2-3 seconds, enough time to deal with the enemy.
Many times, when both parties were negotiating, they would adopt this 250 metres distance.
Beyond this distance, both parties would be unable to communicate, and would not be able to discern each other's gestures and expressions. Below this distance, it would be considered a dangerous distance, and signify the start of a battle!
Thus, the Metals Professor Fu Lyanna's stomp had completely shattered the balance between both parties!
At this moment, Sheyan bluntly tossed a ball of curse-mix onto the ground, forming a poisonous cloud of over 20 meters in radius. He then grabbed Zi's hand, turned around and fled! As for the direction Sheyan was fleeing towards, it was actually the only place where enemies wouldn't appear, but also a complete dead end - the experimental base!!
Sheyan's actions were within everyone's expectations. Immediately, at least 5-6 agility-type Growth-Hunters emerged from the two parties and chased after them at high speed. The speed of these Growth-Hunters was truly astonishing. Their movement speed was estimated to be at least twice that of Sheyan's.
To Sheyan and Zi, the only good news was that the long range attackers of both parties had been deployed to various vantage points. Because they had to obstruct the duo's escape route to the legendary dinosaur colony, and prevent them from fishing in troubled waters, they couldn't launch any attacks against them.
Zi's slender hand was tightly gripped by Sheyan, and she couldn't help but follow him for 7-8 metres. At this moment, Zi finally reacted. Her haughty personality instantly flared up as she coldly uttered.
"Release me, instead of fleeing in humiliation for a few minutes of survival, I'd rather return and die in a glorious battle!!!"
Sheyan abruptly turned back! When Zi met his gaze, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart!! She had never seen such a ferocious gaze from Sheyan, so much so that she could only swallow back her words. In that instant, Zi felt as though a savage beast was trampling on the plains of her heart, tyrannically and unyieldingly!
"Shut up!"
Sheyan coldly spat out those two words, words that no one had ever dared to utter to Zi! Instead, Zi truly shut her mouth, and obediently followed Sheyan as he sprinted at high speed!
After all, one was a support type Growth-hunter, while the other was a physique type contestant. In terms of speed, they definitely didn't have any advantage. A distance of 250 metres was traversed in the blink of an eye, and the several sharp-edged agility Growth-hunters were closing in.
Instead, Sheyan's lips curled into a sneer. His hand suddenly flickered with a series of dark-gold glows! Evidently, that was the sign of a dark-gold grade item!
Witnessing this scene, Skull, who was standing with his hands clasped behind his back, immediately roared in rage.
"Judas! Didn't you say they can't use special items to return? "
Judas was flabbergasted.
"I... I don't sense any space-time ripples here! Not good! They're not using a returning item! "
Several seconds later, an incomparably intense dark-gold glow descended from the sky! A gigantic leech appeared behind Sheyan. This leech's body glowed with a dark-gold luster, and coincidentally landed on the hastily constructed road of the experimental base. This road had been trampled by dinosaurs and crushed by heavy trucks. Furthermore, the rainy climate of Jurassic Island made it exceptionally muddy.
Speaking of which, did Dr. Hammond really lack the funds and materials to construct such a road? Of course not. It was only because he knew that his betrayal would be discovered sooner or later. The reason he created such a quagmire at the entrance of the base was because he was considering the possibility of future battles. Once an enemy vehicle was trapped inside, it would naturally become a live target for the base's defense system.
After this dark-gold glowing leech landed on the muddy road, it immediately shook its head and wagged its tail like a fish in water! Sheyan raised his fist up high as a blood red glow flashed, activating the awakening of the T-Virus! It inflated like a balloon, transforming into an area of effect mucus attack. Any creature struck by it would slow down for 10 seconds!
