Chapter 223 - 195: Invader Squad (2)
Inside the General’s Camp, Yang Qingniu, Zhang Lengzi, and Xiang Yun had just emerged from the General’s Tomb instance.
Due to the distance, they couldn’t hear the alarm sounded by Wadu. Xiang Yun, however, seemed to sense something. He looked up at the figures diving down from the sky and said, "There are people dropping from the sky! It looks like they’re invading Eggshell Village!"
"What? An invasion? Where are they? I’ll cut them down!"
Zhang Lengzi followed Xiang Yun’s gaze, stamped his foot, and immediately activated Invisibility and sped away, forgetting all about farming the General’s Tomb.
Yang Qingniu did the same. As an Earth Warrior, he immediately used Earth Escape to depart.
Meanwhile, in Eggshell Village, Luan Bu and his group of ten had already flown up beside the Military Affairs Office building.
"This is the Military Affairs Office, but there’s no one inside! Yun Hu, you attack this place. The rest of you, follow me and we’ll sweep the other areas!"
Luan Bu glanced at the building’s basic information, gave a grand wave of his hand, and led his men away, leaving behind a single yellow-haired Player.
The yellow-haired Player was wearing a Tuxedo Outfit. His name was Zhao Yunhu. He let out a loud laugh as he landed on the roof of the Military Affairs Office. Pushing his hands forward into thin air, he summoned two glowing vortexes.
A roar echoed from the two vortexes, and then a pair of Golden-winged Griffins flew out.
Zhao Yunhu’s class was Beast Summoner, able to summon War Beasts from the void!
"Golden-winged Griffins, by my command! Destroy this building, and kill anyone you see!"
Zhao Yunhu shouted as he drew a Great Sword. Hopping onto a hoverboard, he charged down toward the entrance of the Military Affairs Office courtyard.
Three figures clad in General Armor stood there, and he wanted to take them out first.
But just then, a golden light flashed across the sky, piercing through one of the Golden-winged Griffins three times in the blink of an eye.
The griffin shrieked and immediately plummeted from the sky.
’Hm? Dead already? There’s a master here!’
Zhao Yunhu warily flew higher into the sky. He scanned his surroundings but couldn’t spot his attacker. Just then, the other Golden-winged Griffin was struck in the wing by a hail of bullets, spiraling toward the ground.
"RAT-A-TAT-TAT-TAT..."
The bullets whizzed through the air, continuously pummeling the Golden-winged Griffin.
The ones launching the attack were none other than Hu Fenqiu and his two companions.
They had long since abandoned bows and arrows. Now, each of them held a machine gun, standing shoulder to shoulder as they focused their fire on the Golden-winged Griffin.
"Joining the Military Affairs Office is my dream. Anyone who dares cause trouble here will be shown no mercy!"
"Focus fire! Kill it!"
"After a year of hard training in the World of Suffering, I finally get to put my skills to use! Check out my aim!"
Hu Fenqiu and his two companions wore cold expressions. Their firepower was immense; blue flames erupted from the muzzles of their machine guns as a dense hail of bullets flew straight at the Golden-winged Griffin.
However, the Golden-winged Griffin was powerful in its own right. Its feathers were like forged iron. Despite the ferocious assault, it wasn’t instantly riddled with holes. Still, it was quickly wounded and fell to the ground with a piteous cry.
"Fire! Fire! Watch this..."
The purple-skinned Beastman Lady, Duruka, came charging out from the nearby First Dining Hall, at the wheel of a Crossbow Machine Carriage.
Soon, the Crossbow Machine Carriage opened fire. A flood of Flying Light Arrows engulfed the Golden-winged Griffin, quickly riddling its body with holes.
’They have guns. Their defenses aren’t weak!’
Watching from the sky, Zhao Yunhu was stunned to see his two Summoned Creatures killed in an instant. He hurriedly raised a hand, about to summon more War Beasts.
But a golden light suddenly shot out, piercing him directly between the eyebrows.
That single strike was enough to take his life.
"Hidden sniper... Revive me...!"
Zhao Yunhu cried out, and his body immediately dissolved into light and vanished.
At the same time, the bearded Player was blasted out of the sky by one of Wadu’s Radium Light Beams, crashing into the First Dining Hall.
"Damn, this little robot packs a punch! But I’m Niu Wanjun, an Earth Knight. It’s not that easy to blast me to death!"
The bearded Player rubbed the charred-black spot on his chest from the Radium Ray and nonchalantly got to his feet. He straightened his hoverboard, looking as if he was about to take flight again to continue his attack on Wadu.
But just then, two vines erupted from the ground, binding his legs like ropes. At the same time, a wooden spike pierced through his back and out his chest.
The wooden spike was the right arm of the Photosynthesis Assassin, Feng Feihu. His successful strike dealt heavy damage to Niu Wanjun.
"A sneak attack... You have no honor..."
Niu Wanjun wasn’t quite dead yet. He glanced at the Assassin behind him and swung a Hand Axe in a counterattack.
With an indifferent expression, Feng Feihu quickly used Earth Escape and vanished. Niu Wanjun’s axe cleaved through empty air as blood gushed from the hole in his chest. His legs were still tightly bound by the vines from underground.
Just then, not far away, four Tian Can and four Earth Defects landed simultaneously. They spread out in a line, kicked over the dining tables in front of them, and sat down in thin air. The coffin-like Ancient Zithers on their backs immediately sprang forward, settling across their laps.
"Let this song break your heart..."
The music began. All eight of them plucked the strings in unison, and a concentrated volley of invisible Qi Blades instantly shredded Niu Wanjun, sending blood flying everywhere.
These four pairs of Heaven and Earth Defects had only recently been recruited from the Octagonal Cage and had just joined the Eastern Depot.
On a nearby wall, four Fire Fire Evil Gods were all picking their noses. They glanced at Niu Wanjun, who was being torn apart in the Dining Hall courtyard, and said in unison, "Not bad!"
Another group of Beastman Ladies ran out, holding Spiritual Artifact cooking pots and hoping to collect the chunks of flesh for Alchemy, but the pieces of his body quickly dissolved into light and vanished.
Niu Wanjun was dead, and he had dropped a Small Money Bag.
Over by Eggshell Castle, a loud RUMBLE echoed as a flaming meteor fell from the sky, destroying a corner of the castle.
A Player in a black robe stood on a hoverboard, holding a Crystal Magic Staff. He said to his companion in golden armor, "Is this building really made of eggshells? It looks pretty fragile. Two more flaming meteors and I’ll flatten it! You go and support the boss."
The Player in golden armor nodded. "Alright. It looks like they’ve run into heavy resistance over there!"
"Don’t bother leaving. All of you can stay right here!"
A voice called out from below.
It was Jelena. Her brow was furrowed as she raised her right hand, on which the light of a fire had already begun to glow.
She was flanked by two guards: the Eco-Mage, Feng Feilong, and the Eye of Ecology, Feng Feifeng.
Behind Jelena stood 160 Bayonet Robots.
"Oh? Where’d this little girl come from? A Magic Apprentice? HAHAHAHA..."
The man in the black robe, Moriren, burst out laughing when he saw Jelena. He was a Forbidden Curse Mage, nearly at the Great Mage Level, and his Professional Traits allowed him to identify Jelena as a mere Magic Apprentice. ’This kid’s got a big mouth for someone with so little skill,’ he thought.
But in the next moment, a Small Fireball six meters in diameter soared into the air like a miniature sun, instantly engulfing Moriren.
It wasn’t just him; the Player in golden armor beside him was also caught in the blast.
BOOM!
The Small Fireball exploded mid-air, and Moriren was instantly vaporized.
The Player in the golden armor was named Sanglock. He had already changed his class to Sky Knight, so his defense was far superior to Moriren’s. He wasn’t killed by the blast, but taking a direct hit from the Small Fireball still cost him more than half his life. Now completely charred black, he fell from the sky like a lump of charcoal.
Before he could even get up, Feng Feilong, at Jelena’s side, flicked his arm, and a cloud of green mist enveloped Sanglock.
On closer inspection, the green mist was revealed to be a swarm of countless tiny flying insects. They frantically tore at Sanglock’s body, which seemed to rapidly rot and decompose, as if being corroded by a strong acid!
Sanglock let out a bloodcurdling scream of pain. A moment later, he too dissolved into light, dropping a few Gold Coins.
Jelena snorted coldly and turned to look toward the Exile Court.
Several more invaders were still hovering in the sky over there.
Meanwhile, the machine-gun-toting Hu Fenqiu, Zhang Mazha, and Yang Dazhuang, as well as Wadu, Feng Feihu, Feng Feixuan, the Fire Fire Evil Gods, the Heaven and Earth Defects, and others, quickly gathered around Jelena. Not far away, Qin Mo also appeared.
Jelena ordered, "Sweep forward. Kill them all. Leave no survivors!"
"Yes!"
The group immediately followed Jelena and advanced.
