Chapter 42: The Will to Flame That Erupted
However, there is one thing that is very bad information. As Zhou Shaobo said, it seems that the power of modern weapons has indeed declined, and it has dropped a lot. Looking at the firearms used by Zhou Shaobo and his group before, it was not obvious, but it could be clearly seen from the coverage of this large scene of artillery fire.
They have encountered many insects and beasts, and although the outer armor defense is not weak, it is not so hard that it is outrageously hard. Now it is very unscientific to be able to get up and struggle after being hit directly by a shell.
To be honest, even if the survivors' per capita physique is strengthened, the whole people will start to cultivate. Perhaps at some point in the future, there will be an era of high martial arts comparable to the civilization of miracles. However, in the middle of the transition period, scientific and technological strength and modern weapons are also the greatest confidence capital of mankind.
Now it seems that it is not optimistic! After all, their enemies aren't just these deviant animals.
Scourge beasts, evil spirits, and perhaps, other unknown dangers.
"Something's coming."
Chen Xue suddenly spoke.
As she spoke, the herd, which had been scattered by the artillery fire, seemed to be stimulated by something, and suddenly began to flee in all directions. Several thunderous beast roars were heard in the distance, and at the same time, three figures on the city wall rose into the sky.
"That's the real Scourge Beast?!"
Huge body, hideous and terrifying face. With the galloping of the earth, it appeared on the outskirts of the battlefield.
In any case, the four of them couldn't connect this real monster with those little monsters in the Godfall Realm, maybe the appearance was hideous and ugly, but the strength was very different. Even the trolls that appeared at the end of the Godfall Realm were far less than a fraction of these monsters.
More than a dozen monsters, all different, the smallest one was also four or five meters tall and nearly ten meters long. As soon as he approached the battlefield, he raised his head and spewed a gray breath towards the city wall.
Wherever the breath passes, flying insects and beasts are gone, and all living beings are wiped out.
"Stand down!"
With a shout of rage, one of the figures stood in front of the city wall, slashing angrily. After the huge sword qi slashed the breath, the remaining momentum continued unabated, and it crossed the battlefield and slashed at the plague beast.
One man, one beast, two tricks. Most of the chaotic beasts on the entire battlefield were killed or wounded, and the destructive power was stronger than the repeated bombardment of the artillery just now.
"This is the real powerhouse!" Bai Xuanyu looked at this scene and whispered to himself. Compared to this kind of battle, their strength is really insignificant.
With the appearance of the plague beast, the alien beast has become complete cannon fodder. In the battle of the three strong men to prevent the plague beast from approaching the city wall, they were constantly trampled and killed. The artillery fire on the city wall did not stop, but the huge cannonballs that hit the plague beast did not seem to have much damage.
"Looks like we're in the middle of nowhere." Lin Yi looked at the battle, the three strong men, it was the aura that he had noticed before. If this is the top combat power of the provincial capital. The situation seems to be a little dangerous.
Although the strength of those three people is strong, the calamity beast is really terrifying. Now it seems that what Zhou Shaobo said before was an underestimation of how many times it would take to destroy a town. I'm afraid that just one can wreak havoc on a city like Yancheng.
"How many strong people are there in the provincial capital?" Han Jing asked as she stared at the battle.
Lin Yi shook his head, "According to my original understanding, the number of such strong people in the entire country of China is somewhat limited. It is extremely rare to have three people at a time. ”
Huaguo has a population of more than one billion, and the original cultivators in the cultivation world are said to be only a few thousand. Even if you add the background of the major forces and some hidden loose cultivation, there are about 10,000 people at most. Among them, how many strong people can reach this level?
No matter how blessed a cultivator after the Doomsday Cataclysm is, it also takes time to grow. Perhaps, we can only hope that those cultivators who were originally at the bottom can break through more powerhouses after being stimulated by the cataclysm.
The little fire dragon became a little restless because of the appearance of the plague beasts, roaring from time to time, and the flames on his body jumped, as if he wanted to rush out and fight those plague beasts.
Lin Yi held it down. The little fire dragon is the combined embodiment of the remnants of the will of a god in the temple of gods and a strange fruit, and may indeed hide some power. But in the next big battle, they really can't afford to mix.
Bai Xuanyu looked at the battle of the three powerhouses below, his expression was a little excited, but more helpless and sad. Even if he risked his life to use Hell Scourge again, he would not be able to deal with even a single scourge beast. The cannon fire on the city wall was loud, but it sounded like a wail.
Thirteen scourge beasts, after nearly three minutes of furious battle. Two of them died, four fell to the ground with heavy blows, and the other seven still screamed and besieged the three. The three powerhouses burst out like gods, but even Bai Xuanyu and the laymen could see that they were beginning to lose their strength.
The overwhelming artillery fire disappeared, and a group of black shadows jumped down on the city wall, not approaching the battle circle of the strong men, but rushing towards the four scourge beasts that fell to the ground and were injured.
"Why don't we go too?"
After a strong man finally couldn't hold on, was smashed by two calamity beasts, and devoured in one bite, Bai Xuanyu finally couldn't hold back and spoke again.
Before he died, the strong man also smashed the head of a plague beast. But the tenacity of these things was unbelievable, and they still moved to get closer to the walls as the other two dragged the circle of battle farther away.
The cannon fire rang out again, bombarding the moving beast and halting it.
But on the other side, the other cultivators who besieged the injured calamity beast could not solve it quickly.
Lin Yi saw with his own eyes that someone was slapped into the ground by a dying calamity beast, and the others were still not afraid of death, and his heart couldn't help but shake. This time, he didn't stop Bai Xuanyu.
Although they knew that they were useless, their attacks might not even be able to break through the leather armor of the Plague Beast, but they might be of some use.
Bai Xuanyu took the lead in rushing down, and Lin Yi followed closely behind to open the Law Phase. There are no wings, because the law is not complete, every time he uses the wings, it is a big burden for him, and it doesn't matter if he has wings or not to deal with those monsters.
The ordinary beasts are basically dead, and the rest have scattered and fled. Not far from the battlefield, they ran unhindered all the way, and soon approached the first injured plague beast.
Several cultivators who were in the middle of the battle noticed that someone was approaching, and they were startled at first, and then they ignored it and concentrated on the battle.
What Bai Xuanyu had in his hand was a steel bar, and under the urging of the execution of the hell shot, it turned into a musket and stabbed directly into the body of the disaster beast. Han Jing held the blade with a sharp edge, and his momentum was far better than before, which made several people in the battle look sideways.
Chen Xue was silent, and her internal strength was deep. Long before encountering the evil spirit, Lin Yi had discovered that her Aoki Jue's cultivation had reached his own original realm, and now that such a long time had passed. In terms of internal strength alone, I am afraid that he is enough to be called a master of the original cultivation world.
Lin Yi was sluggish when approaching the calamity beast, not that he wanted to be unreliable like this every time. It's really because the situation is special.
The closer he got to the battlefield, the more irritable the little fire dragon became. When he really got close to the calamity beast, a dragon groaned. The surging flames directly wrapped Lin Yi's whole person.
At that moment, an unprecedentedly powerful force and a terrifying battle intent that had lasted for tens of thousands of years poured into Lin Yi's body. The disaster beast in front of him seems to have become an undying enemy of life and death.
Stopping the counterattack of such a slash in the consciousness world, Lin Yi decisively accepted this power. After watching the battle for a long time, it was difficult for him to calm down in his heart.
"Anger is like a vajra seal!"
With an angry shout, the flames fused with the golden light, and Lin Yifa's figure doubled. With a strong palm, the head of the disaster beast that turned its head and wanted to attack Bai Xuanyu and the three of them flew back.
"Vajra Prajna Seal!"
Another palm, falling from the sky, directly killed.
"Han Jing! Knife to me! ”
With a low snort, his eyes fixed on the other three plague beasts.
Han Jing was startled by Lin Yi's sudden outburst, and without the slightest hesitation, he threw out the long knife.
This weapon, which was obtained from the Divine Fall Realm, bloomed with the power of a true divine weapon after Lin Yi's strong power was infused.
"Moke Five Fun, Knife Path!"
The golden-red figure quickly approached the other injured plague beast, and with a single sword, the body and head separated.
"Moke Five Fun, Fire Road!"
One more stab, a complete end!
The sky was full of flames and enveloped the calamity beasts, and the cultivators who dealt with the calamity beasts were all shocked. This sudden appearance of a strong man is terrifying.
Distracted and involved, the other two plague beasts broke away, but they did not escape. roared and pounced on Lin Yi.
"The path of the knife is sick!"
"Fire Path Refining Shura!"
It was still the same two moves, and the two alien beasts were cut into two ends and burned in the flames.
Then Lin Yi's back bulged, and the wings dyed in the color of flames stretched out with the golden blood, flapping their wings and flying towards the battle circle in the distance.
The cultivators who came out of the provincial city gathered together and looked at Bai Xuanyu and the three of them with a look of surprise.
"I don't know which senior apprentice a few of them are."
One of the middle-aged men stood up and asked in a respectful tone. Not only to Lin Yi, who had just broken out, but also to Bai Xuanyu and the others. Their cultivation is not high, but they are willing to stand up, take the initiative to approach the battlefield, and take the initiative to face these terrifying beasts, this kind of courage and responsibility is worthy of respect.
The three of them were a little stunned, because it was not quite what they had imagined at first.
"Don't we have to help?" Bai Xuanyu looked at Lin Yi who was leaving, a little worried.
The other cultivators also glanced over there, their faces heavy. "It's useless to go, the plague beast is not something we can deal with. Even these seriously injured and dying ,,,"
Sighing silently, they had already sacrificed a few people just by delaying the battle.
This is not the first time that the beasts have attacked the city since the cataclysm, long before the city walls were built, there were a large number of battles in which the alien beasts gathered to attack the city. But this is the second time that the plague beast has appeared. Last time, there were only four of them, and they were killed by three strong men, and the corpses are still being studied underground in the city. It was also at that time that they truly saw the terrifying power of these exotic natural disasters.
"Vajra Prajna, as well as Moke Five Fun. Is that Lin Yi? ”
In the silence, a young man with a broken arm hesitated for a moment and asked.
"Do you know Brother Yi?" Bai Xuanyu looked back at him.
The other cultivators also looked at this young man in surprise. The strength that Lin Yi showed just now was almost not weaker than those three powerhouses. "Peng Yu, do you know this person?"
Receiving Bai Xuanyu's response, Xia Pengyu's face became complicated. nodded, "It's a loose cultivator of Kongjian Mountain, a senior disciple of the Green Buddha." ”
