Chapter 55: The Torrent of Strange Beasts

"Three kilometers ahead of the engagement zone, seventeen minutes before sunset, all the teams are ready to stop at the predetermined place ahead. A team sent back a message, and the rest of the team was ready to set up camp upon arrival.

After leaving the stone building, Wu Xiuxian has been running silently at the forefront of the exploration team, and the speed is controlled by him to the extent that the C-level abilities in the team can keep up.

The exploration team did not leave the middle of the rift floor and go below the rock wall as the castle tower had chosen that day, and the nearby kilometers had already been cleared by a team, so it was absolutely safe at this time.

After looking around, Wu Xiuxian did not stop his movements, but raised his head and looked at the sky above that was almost dark, and then his figure disappeared again.

Wu Xiuxian's departure did not stop the exploration team, and under the guidance and arrangement of the captains of each team, everyone successfully arrived at the predetermined location, and then camped in small units.

The second team in charge of the supply then began to distribute water and food to the rest of the team, where they would repair overnight and wait until dawn the next day to continue their journey.

After the stop, the third team of the castle tower was arranged in the innermost position of the hundred-man group, next to the second team in the center, which also made the fourth and fifth teams camped on the outside a little dissatisfied.

"Brother Ziyue, after looking around just now, our strength is indeed the strongest among the five teams, but according to what Liu Ruohe said, there are a total of seven days in the rift, of which three days come and three go to the road, and less than one day is allocated to mine crystal ore, will there be a slight uneven distribution." After camping, Li Hui was a little puzzled, and asked Lin Ziyue in a low voice.

Lin Ziyue glanced at him, and Xiao Tunan, who was beside him, stretched out his hand and gave him a violent shudder: "Little ghost, the brain is a daily necessities, not an ornament, you can think about this kind of thing yourself with a little thought." ”

"It's very troublesome..."Li Gui muttered and whispered, he didn't dare to let Xiao Tunan hear it.

"Okay, if you encounter a strange beast on the way, there is a team of warnings that can be avoided, and if you can't avoid it, you will be dealt with by four and five teams, and no matter how bad it is, you can let the second team leave directly under our protection, but on that day and night in the mining area, we have nowhere to escape, even if there is a strong beast, we must face the enemy head-on, and we must hit the strong in the exploration team as much as possible in our team. With Gao Yun's explanation before, Muji and Monette also recognized the form of the exploration team, they looked at Li Ji and smiled, and then said to him.

While a few people were talking, Hai Xin and Anna quietly came to Lin Ziyue's side with different expressions, and before they could speak, Lin Ziyue had already grabbed the arms of the two of them, and said in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "I also feel it, but it's not convenient to say it here now, wait until midnight when a team rotates work, Hai Xin, you look for a place." ”

Helsing nodded quietly, but the corners of his eyebrows twitched faintly, showing that he was not as calm as he appeared at the moment.

The sky quickly darkened, and because there was a team clearing the surroundings, the camp of the exploration team was lit up unscrupulously, and although there were strange beasts in the distance who saw the light here, they did not dare to approach a bit.

It was almost early in the morning, and several figures in the camp of the three teams quietly left the camp under the moonlight that was not bright today, and not only that, but also avoided a team of members who were on guard outside

Arrived at no man's land in the plains at the bottom of the rift.

"Lin Zi, how do you feel?" Fortunately, it is not a full moon today, so Helin can still maintain a human body, it stands to reason that he can control himself freely after entering the B rank, and he will not necessarily turn into his body on the night of the full moon, but after passing through the area where the Flame Lion King slaughtered other strange beasts, his body has a faint sense of dryness, if it is not deliberately controlled by the two, I am afraid that he will turn into a demon beast in front of everyone.

Lin Ziyue shook his head: "Although I can see from the second vision that the concentration of fire elements in the valley has increased a lot compared to the previous few days, my body does not feel any discomfort, it seems that you and Anna have other problems?"

Anna's breathing at this time was much longer than usual: "Well, the fire element in the valley is rich but too mixed, although our strength will be increased when we use the ability, but the control is much weaker, and if we absorb a large amount, we may lose our minds like the long-haired mustang clan back then..."

Lin Ziyue was stunned for a moment, and then looked at his right hand, why did the heat in the fire element in the rift have no effect on him, the only reason he could think of at this time was the hidden bracelet he wore there.

Hands to take off the bracelet, and then condensed the most basic fireball technique, looking at the fireball that was constantly burning in the palm of his hand, Lin Ziyue did sense the heat mentioned by Helin and Anna after careful identification.

Waving his hand to disperse the palm ability, Lin Ziyue was silent for a moment: "I don't know if there is a similar situation in the exploration team, but I think that as long as they don't do it in the past few days, they should not be affected." But we can't, and the influence of the surrounding elements on the three of us is obvious. ”

Saying that, Lin Ziyue seemed to think of something, searched in the bracelet for a moment, and then took out two crystals about the size of a tail finger and a whole green body: "Wood and fire are born together, the pure wood element in the wood spirit crystal has a good filtering and purifying effect on the mixed breath in the fire element, you can take these two pieces with you first, and if you can in the battle after that, try not to shoot first." ”

Speaking, the farther Lin Ziyue looked into the depths of the rift, the fire element that opened up was as dark and deep as ink in the distance of the eye, it stands to reason that Lin Ziyue's eyesight at this time was only more than ten kilometers under the enhancement of the ability, and the visual distance of the second vision should be about the same, I don't know if it was an illusion, he now seems to be able to see the elements emanating from the mining area hundreds of kilometers away.

Taking over the fragments of the wood spirit crystal, Hai Xin and Anna respectively put them into their own intimate clothes, closed their eyes and sensed slightly, it did improve, at this time, a team of sentry posts had patrolled so far, the three of them hurriedly hid their figures, and then returned to the camp, even Liu Ruohe did not find that the three of them had left.

The next morning, when the sky was just white, the exploration team was ready to move to the mining area deep in the rift, with a team of rotational guards, and everyone else had a good rest last night, so the speed of today's progress was 20% faster than the previous day.

Just as they were about to arrive at the Dragon's Blood Tree Plains, the team that guarded and opened the way in front all returned, and they brought back a message. "Fourteen kilometers ahead, there is a huge group of alien beasts, which are heading towards the depths of the rift at this time, the number is about more than twenty thousand, covering the entire area at the bottom of the rift, most of them are E-class alien beasts, and the strongest ones are only a few B-rank, their forward speed is only one-third of ours, according to our speed, there are still seven minutes to make contact. ”

Wu Xiuxian didn't know when

Returning to the marching team, he didn't seem surprised by the appearance of the herd, when he set up camp last night, he had already seen some scattered beasts when he rose to a height of 100 meters, but he didn't expect that after a night, the alien beasts in front of him not only did not disperse, but mixed together, heading towards the depths of the rift.

Wu Xiuxian and Zhang Yi, the captain of the fourth team, did not stop the exploration team after a simple calculation, but let all the members of the fourth team come to the front of the team after all the teams returned to the main team, and changed the formation, changing from the matrix to the ladder formation, it seems that they plan to divide the alien beast group in front and pass through.

The journey of more than ten kilometers was only a few minutes of running, and the members of the four teams, led by the captain Zhang Yi, and ten of them on the left and right protected the other members of the entire exploration team, with excitement and fear in their eyes, each took out their own weapons or mobilized their abilities, ready to fight at any time.

...

It was only less than a kilometer away from the beast herd, and at this moment, everyone could already see the dust and sand raised by the ten thousand beasts rushing in front of them, and with Zhang Yi's shout, everyone in the exploration team began to accelerate. Suddenly, the team of one hundred members of the exploration team turned into a sharp knife and plunged into the torrent of alien beasts from behind.

Zhang Yi opened the way with a spear in his hand, and lifted or pushed away the strange beasts in front of him in the smallest possible range, while the other four team members on the outside of the team were responsible for blocking the strange beasts in front of them, although the flesh and blood flew for a while, but in fact, those strange beasts did not die, but everyone's actions naturally attracted the attention of the strange beasts that were rushing around them, and for a while, the strange beasts in the vicinity attacked them.

But fortunately, the strength of these alien beasts is not strong, just a glance and there are countless alien beasts that are knocked away by them and do not know whether they are alive or dead, for the entire torrent of alien beasts, the exploration team of 100 people is a quick knife cut into the tofu, except for the alien beasts at the junction with them, the alien beasts in front of them and on the left and right sides of the distance do not know what is happening.

Even though the width of the rift is more than four kilometers on the left and right, the alien beasts are not in the habit of rubbing shoulders with each other, so there is a certain distance between the alien beasts and the alien beasts. At this moment, the members of the fourth team of the exploration team found a relatively safe and fast route between these strange beasts, so that everyone could pass quickly.

Do you know what it's like to run through a torrent of tens of thousands of alien beasts?

Countless horses' hooves, ox hooves, and sheep's hooves stepped on the dry and desolate ground, and the sound was deafening, and the smoke and dust raised were even more obscuring the sky, and at this time, the exploration team was in this drum-like footsteps and the smoke and dust in the sky, constantly leaving the strange beasts behind, moving towards the front of the strange beasts little by little, like Moses dividing the sea.

...

After an hour of fighting without any interruption, after the four teams had at least killed or stunned hundreds of alien beasts, all of them finally surpassed the torrent of alien beasts. A group of members at the back of the last hall also left with their companions.

However, Wu Xiuxian did not let everyone stop and rest, but accelerated again, until he entered the second half of the Dragon's Blood Tree Wasteland, an area more than ten kilometers wide, then he turned the direction of the team, turned to the side, and slowly recovered the speed of the meeting after traveling a few kilometers.

"Zhang Yi, report the battle damage. ”

"Report to the captain, the team successfully broke away from the beast tide block, except for two people who were seriously injured, five people who were slightly injured, and seven people whose abilities were consumed too much, and successfully completed the task. Zhang Yi held his head high, with a proud look on his face.
