Chapter 41: The Benefactor
Qin Peng and Ouyang Xue issued a similar order, dividing the personnel into five-man combat squads, which is also standard in wartime. The two teams did not act rashly, but first sent a strong team of scouts to conduct a detailed reconnaissance of the surrounding environment, delineate the activity areas of spirit beasts of all levels, and formulate cleaning tactics in a targeted manner, while trying to ensure the safety of the team members.
Wang Hao's team only had five people, so naturally there was no need to send reconnaissance personnel. They walked straight out of the camp and began to explore the perimeter of the camp.
"Directly 200 meters ahead, there is a Giant Claw Rat of the Yuan Spirit Realm Level 3!" Lin Yuning, who was in the lead, shouted excitedly. Her talent ability microscopy immediately showed a great advantage in an unknown environment, and she could directly read the level of the spirit beast without any perception at all, lock the location of the spirit beast, and completely destroy the value of any elite reconnaissance team. With such a natural ability, she was different from other freshmen who had just entered the spatial rift, and Lin Yuning was not only not afraid, but became more and more excited, feeling that she was simply born for adventure.
"Giant clawed rats are timid, don't be so loud." Wang Hao held his forehead with one hand, feeling very helpless, Lin Yuning's face was full of excitement, she was completely in the posture of coming to travel, and she didn't have the vigilance to enter the space crack at all.
"Got it." Lin Yu condensed his neck and stuck out his tongue, looking like an elf and a ghost horse.
"Here we are." Wang Hao frowned, and there was a vague sense of dislocation in his heart, as if the entire space had been dragged away from the present world. The situation in front of him was also a little strange, the giant claw rat was not only not frightened away after hearing the sound, but ran towards the location of Wang Hao and the others, which was not the behavior of a normal giant claw rat. The so-called timid as a mouse, it is normal for the giant clawed rat to run away when it sees someone.
"I'm coming!" Yang Ming didn't feel anything about the abnormal situation, he took the lead in standing up, and without waiting for Wang Hao to speak, he rushed directly forward. This is a rare opportunity for Yang Ming to perform, his ability is very ordinary, only level 6 of the Yuan Spirit Realm, it is very difficult to hunt spirit beasts alone in the spatial cracks, this giant claw rat with only level 3 is one of the few varieties that he can complete without injury, he naturally has to step forward bravely, in order to earn a little impression in the eyes of the beauties.
When the distance was shortened to 5 meters, Yang Ming suddenly accelerated, and the left and right short swords crossed in front of his chest, and the spiritual energy was injected, and the light was bright, slashing out like the wind.
Beginner Skill: Auracross Slash
This is a trick that Yang Ming has tried and tested repeatedly in the virtual reality, the giant claw rat has affected its speed due to the pair of huge claws, and in the face of such a sudden acceleration, it can only block hard, and in the case of being crushed by the psionic level, it will inevitably be killed by one blow.
"Squeak!" The giant clawed rat suddenly screamed, the frequency was extremely high, and the invisible sound wave spread, piercing the eardrums of people. This is the Giant Clawed Rat's natural ability, the Rat's gall screams, which uses high-frequency sound waves to hit the eardrums of its prey, causing it to temporarily paralyze its control ability.
A smile crossed the corner of Yang Ming's mouth, he had been prepared for this, he controlled the spiritual energy to infuse his ears before the sound waves hit, and tightly protected his eardrums.
Unfortunately, his self-confidence only lasted for a short moment, and the high-frequency sound waves instantly penetrated his protection, and although it had been severely weakened, at least half of the force was still acting on his eardrums.
Yang Ming's body couldn't help but pause, and the huge and sharp claws of the giant claw rat grabbed his double sword through this brief pause, and then pressed down with both claws, and completely passed his defense by rushing forward with force. A black-brown bone giant claw that shone with a metallic cold light appeared in front of Yang Ming's eyes and pierced into his eyes. Yang Ming's pupils contracted, desperately trying to dodge, but his body couldn't keep up with the reaction of consciousness. The fear of death came overwhelmingly, causing his mind to come to a complete standstill, and his movements froze at the moment of blocking.
At the moment of crisis, the purple light flashed, and the giant claw rat was divided into two by Wang Hao's neat landing, and the two halves of its body slashed past the sides of Yang Ming's head, blood splashed on his face, and there were even scattered internal organs hanging on his cheeks.
Yang Ming involuntarily collapsed to the ground, the sound of heavy breathing could be heard clearly ten meters away, and he felt that his heart was beating so fast that it was almost uncontrollable to jump out of his chest. Death had almost passed him just now, and it made him tremble with fear.
At this moment, he finally understood Lu Chengtian's words. Virtual reality is virtual after all, no matter how many times you train in it, it cannot replace actual combat, only the battlefield is a real test for a warrior. And he, Yang Ming, was obviously a complete defeat in the first trial, which filled his heart with frustration.
"Get up, we don't have time to be afraid." Wang Hao's calm and firm voice sounded in Yang Ming's ears.
"Thank you." Yang Mingqiang stood up, his voice was a little low, this is definitely a real life-saving grace, and he will say goodbye to this world in a second later.
"It's nothing, I'm scared the first time I go to war." Wang Hao smiled and didn't care.
Yang Ming's eyes showed a look of gratitude, he was always an ordinary guy, with neither talent nor family, no sense of existence no matter where he put it. For this reason, he can only indulge in gossip and use the name of the small speaker radio station to attract attention. At Beihai College, he traveled extensively, and many people would ask him about all kinds of gossip, but no one really cared about his own feelings. But at this moment, he knew that Wang Hao sensed his powerlessness and comforted him in his own way.
"This great-clawed rat has mutated, and it is by no means a naturally growing mutation." Wang Hao dissected the body of the giant clawed rat and didn't mind the bloody hand. He discovered that the Giant Clawed Rat's vocal tract contained an organ that stored a large amount of psionic energy, and the rat's gall scream would be greatly amplified as it passed, resulting in a power far greater than that of the average Giant Clawed Rat
Lin Yuning almost vomited when she saw it, this was the first time she had seen the corpse of a real spirit beast.
Su Yue didn't mind, and squatted down like no one else to check with Wang Hao: "Indeed, the vocal voice has changed, so the effect of the rat gall screaming has been greatly enhanced." ”
"Su Yue, you are so strong." Lin Yuning suddenly showed a look of admiration, no wonder Su Yue was able to rank fourth, this courage is definitely very rare among girls.
"There are a lot of giant clawed rats." Wang Hao suddenly got up and looked around.
At this time, Lin Yuning finally noticed the movement around her, and countless giant clawed rats suddenly appeared in her ability perception, each of which was more powerful than the one she had just encountered.
Squeaks filled the mountains, and countless giant clawed rats appeared around the five people.
