Chapter 20: Successive Breakthroughs
"Skinny monkey!" Tianhuo suddenly shouted.
The thin monkey immediately understood what the captain meant, and with a low body, he sneaked in the direction of the wolves in a strange posture.
As a squad scout, the Thin Monkey's personality style is very problematic, but the reconnaissance ability is undoubted, and during the march of the entire team, the number of mutant beasts has been detected several times, allowing Tianhuo to make battle arrangements in advance.
It didn't take long for the thin monkey to reappear.
"Captain, guess who I saw?" said the thin monkey in a smug whisper as he got closer.
Tianhuo's eyes kicked, the thin monkey was startled, and he didn't dare to let people guess anymore, so he hurriedly said: "Thor, cobra, and the blood are here, they are attacking the wind wolf's lair, it's like crazy."
The thin monkey said three names in a row, and the members of Skyfire fell silent for a moment.
"The strength of these three squads is not weak, Thor has been competing with Tianhuo for the title of the first squad in the free zone!" Xiaohua explained to Tang Zhan, who didn't know why: "Cobra and Fierce Blood, although they are not as good as Tianhuo and Thor, their strength is not much different. Unexpectedly, for this mission, the three of them joined forces. ”
Tang Zhan nodded, whether it was the free zone or the wasteland area, he didn't know much at the moment, and he was still a complete newcomer.
"It's troublesome!" Tianhuo was silent for a moment, looked up at the sky, and said in a low voice just after noon.
"Don't worry, captain, they can't compete with us!" said the artillery patting his chest, extremely arrogant.
"Idiot, do you have muscles in your head?" Iron Sword glared at the cannon and said in a deep voice, "The captain means that if you can let the three teams join forces, we will be in trouble on this mission." ”
At this time, the others also understood one after another, the task that required the joint efforts of the three squads to complete, so as they did before, with the strength of the Tianhuo squad, they rushed forward stupidly, I am afraid that they would kill themselves.
"Thin monkey, lead the way, let's go over and help!" Tianhuo said after pondering for a moment.
The artillery opened its mouth to object, but was immediately stopped by the iron sword, "There must have been a change that we didn't know about, otherwise with the arrogance of Thor, the insidiousness of Cobra, and the ruthlessness of blood, we will never share the results with others." ”
"The bounty for this mission is ridiculously high, and I'm afraid there is really a secret in it. ”
The Skyfire team sneaked all the way, climbed a mountain cliff, and saw the situation on the battlefield from a distance, which instantly shocked everyone's hearts.
It is an open field in a canyon surrounded by mountains on three sides.
In the hollow, on a rugged path, dozens of figures dodged and swam, each attacking the wolves with powerful moves, but the number of wolves far exceeded that of human warriors, dozens or hundreds of times that of humans.
The human warriors in the battle had the same goal, and they frantically rushed towards a hidden cave, many of them were wounded, but they still advanced bravely, and if they did not join in at this time, they may not be able to do so, and even their own survival.
The periphery of the battlefield was surrounded by wolves, and it was impossible to break through by their own methods, but even so, there were still more wind wolves, constantly rushing out from a distance to join the battle.
"Hell, Cobra's little white face is charging head-on, is he crazy or is the sun coming out of the west?" said the artillery, staring at a bespectacled young man in the middle of the battle.
This young man is only in his twenties, his appearance is gentle, and he does not forget to tidy up his hair even in battle, Tang Zhan immediately knew that this is the cobra in the mouth of the artillery.
Most of the names of the Free Martial Arts Squad are nicknames for the captains, just like the nicknames of the captains of the Tianhuo squad are called Tianhuo.
Tianhuo suddenly grew up, and quickly ordered: "Rush down to meet them, be careful with me!"
The other team members also moved quickly, following closely behind Tianhuo.
However, they had just started when a wolf howl sounded in the distance, surpassing all the howls of the wolves, and for a while, the wolves near them seemed to have received an order, and immediately hundreds of wind wolves surrounded them.
Tianhuo's face changed dramatically in an instant, and the team members were also shocked, they didn't expect that there was a commander among the wind wolves.
This wolf howl not only caused some of the wolves to change the direction of their attacks, but also caused the other three squads to discover the existence of the Skyfire Squad.
The young man with glasses had a happy face, and shouted loudly from afar: "Brother Tianhuo, don't be entangled by the wind wolf, go into the cave quickly, the wind wolf king is undergoing a secondary mutation inside, we must interrupt it before, otherwise not only will we have no way to live, but the Jiangdu base will also be affected."
"Secondary mutation?" Skyfire and its members looked at each other in disbelief.
After the second mutation, the mutant beast will have something similar to the divine consciousness of the Martial Sect, and at the same time, its wisdom will be greatly opened, and it will become a super existence different from the mutant beast.
In a mutant group, the strength of its king is already above the extreme martial artist, and the larger the group, the stronger the strength of its king, at this moment, the number of wolves is unimaginably large, then the strength of its king is definitely far beyond the extreme martial artist, once such a guy completes the secondary mutation, I am afraid that only the middle-level martial arts or high-level martial arts of the human race can suppress it.
Tianhuo thought for a while, made a decision in his heart, and shouted to "Cobra", "Okay, you guys hold on a little longer!" Then he waved his hand and turned to the direction of the cave with the Tianhuo team.
Another wolf howl came out, and the wolf pack changed again, and more wind wolves besieged the Tianhuo team, and between the cave and the Tianhuo team, there were also a large number of wind wolves who were strictly defended, and this part of the wind wolves had no intention of impacting, but just spread out in front of the cave.
"Tang Zhan, snipe that wise wolf! Artillery you cover, is there a problem?" Tianhuo said in a deep voice.
The wise wolf plays the role of the commander in the wolf pack, and his own wisdom is not low, and his status is only below the wolf king, although his strength is not outstanding, he can mobilize the attack direction of the wolf pack.
Tang Zhan and the artillery agreed, Tang Zhan inserted the electronic concussion knife back into his waist, and quickly took off the G7 series sniper rifle behind his back.
At the moment when Tang Zhan agreed, his mind was already completely on the Zhi Wolf, the distance between the two sides was less than a kilometer, just within the firing range, he was guarded by artillery, and there was no problem in terms of safety in a short time.
On the battlefield of Thor and the other squads, everyone was stunned, obviously not expecting that there would be long-range gunners in the Skyfire squad.
In the normal battle in the wasteland area, the gunner belongs to the burden of the squad, except for marksmanship, his own combat effectiveness is not worth mentioning, once he is close to the mutant beast, there is only a dead end.
But now the appearance of the gunner can play a role in changing the tide of the war, if you can snipe the wolf, the remaining wind wolves will fall into a leaderless situation, although the combat effectiveness is still not low, but the pressure on them will be greatly reduced.
Tang Zhan was calm, the G7 series of firearms was extremely powerful, and its own weaknesses were also extremely obvious, not to mention the slow loading speed, in order to strengthen the power, the magazine was also modified, and it could only be loaded with two bullets.
That is to say, theoretically, Tang Zhan has two chances, but this is not the case, the wisdom wolf is surrounded by this large number of huge wind wolves, one shot misses, the wisdom wolf is bound to hide, and if he wants to snipe again, the possibility is almost zero, so Tang Zhan's real chance is only once.
The palms of his hands were full of cold sweat, Tang Zhan's spirit was highly concentrated, and in a trance, the howl of the wolves slowly receded in his ears, until he couldn't hear anything, and a slow-motion picture appeared in his eyes, this is Tang Zhan, and he even felt that he could see the expression of the wise wolf.
When the wolf slowly turned his head to this side, he even felt that the wolf was laughing.
"Bang-"
Gunshots rang out.
The warhead spun at great speed and shot at the center of the wolf's eyebrows.
The slow motion didn't end there, Tang Zhan's eyes could see the trajectory of the bullet slowly flying out of the chamber, and the wise wolf showed a slightly stunned expression.
The originally rapid warhead, in Tang Zhan's eyes, slowly flew towards the wise wolf, and several huge wind wolves jumped up one after another, trying to block the advance of the warhead, but they obviously underestimated the power of human firearms.
At the last moment, in slow motion, Zhi Wolf tried to twist his neck, trying to turn his head to the side, trying to avoid the vital point, however, in Tang Zhan's sight, the bullet would eventually hit Zhi Wolf's eyes.
"Hmm? wait, no, how can it be an eye?" Tang Zhan instantly broke out in a cold sweat, and the slow motion was shattered, if it was just an eye, it would not bring fatal damage to the wise wolf at all, although the power of the gun was great, the defense of the mutant beast itself was also amazingly strong, and it was also amazingly recoverable.
At this moment, Tang Zhan had only one thought in his mind, and the moment before the picture was shattered flashed in front of him, as if time had been reversed, and the bullet was slightly distorted in the process of traveling.
Everything around him returned to normal, and the wise wolf's miserable howl resounded in all directions, but it was only half a sound, and his head had already exploded on the spot, and he was dying.
At this time, Tang Zhan had a terrible headache.
Several suppressed cheers rang out around, "Tang Zhan, well done!" Tianhuo's voice also came into his ears.
Farther away, Thor and the other three team members were also stunned for a moment, cheered, the power in their hands was stronger, and they went all out to kill the surrounding wolves.
Since the wise wolf fell to the ground and died, the wolves were enveloped in a tragic atmosphere, and the wind wolves guarding the wise wolves in the distance howled wildly, and the other wind wolves also collectively shook their bodies, and continued to launch a more crazy onslaught on everyone. However, at this moment, without unified command, the threat to human warriors has been greatly reduced.
Tang Zhan rubbed his temples, his brains were boiling like boiling hot water, his whole body was drained, and he sat on the ground and gasped.
Until now, he didn't understand what happened at the last moment just now, the bullet was obviously shot at the eye of the wolf, how could it change direction at the moment of hitting, and it was also surprisingly powerful, a headshot.
"Hurry up and use the Beast King Pill to absorb the aura inside, the battle is not over yet!" Tianhuo's concerned voice came, Tang Zhan did not hesitate to take out the Beast King Pill of the Fanged Tiger King, and in the envious eyes of others, he extracted the aura from it.
This is the Beast King Pill beyond the level of the ultimate martial artist, and the aura contained in it is huge beyond imagination, for the martial artist, even if it is mixed and impure, but after purification, there is still the level of a beginner martial artist.
In the eyes of the people of the Tianhuo team, Tang Zhan's use was obviously a wasteful behavior, and the thin monkey's eyes were even greener, and he was eager to snatch it immediately.
Tang Zhan followed Xuan Yuanjue's practice route and guided the aura in the Beast King Dan into his body, and in an instant, the huge aura that was relatively large for him surged.
The Nine Turns Quenching Yuan Jue was running rapidly, refining the impurities in the huge aura, and after repeated refining, the aura that entered the body was obviously much purer, and finally entered Tang Zhan's dantian.
The total amount of true qi increased rapidly, and the true qi, which was already close to liquefaction, was also more condensed, and Xuanyuan Jue made rapid progress, and soon reached the peak of the fourth layer.
"Boom-"
Tang Zhan's body was shocked, under the squeeze of the huge aura, the fifth layer of Xuanyuan Jue came into being, he had already reached the height of the peak of the eighth layer, but the meridians were atrophied and closed, at this time, rebuilding the true qi, rushing through the level was naturally much easier than in the past.
The huge aura on the Beast King Dan is still endless, and after quenching the Yuan Jue, it enters the Tang Zhan Dantian and merges with his own true qi, and with the breakthrough of true qi cultivation, the flesh and blood are also fed, and the qi and blood instantly increase a lot.
If the original flesh and blood were like a dragon, at best, it was only equivalent to a young dragon without an adult, then now, this young dragon has finally begun to grow slowly.
After another moment, the true qi filled the meridians again, and in a short period of time, he reached the peak of the fifth layer of the Xuanyuan Jue, guiding the true qi with his own thoughts, and was ready to continue to rush through the level.
