Chapter 3: The Winged Serpent

The area where the battle broke out was not just around the house where the circle was located.

Shen Qiongcai rushed out of the room, and the continuous sound of gunfire and strange roars surged from all directions.

It's just that at this time, he obviously doesn't have time to care about the situation in other regions.

As the captain of the guard, he must hold the last line of defense and take out any disillusioned demons who intervene in their approach.

The saliva in his mouth fell to the ground, and the heartless demon suddenly erupted.

Sharp bone claws slashed across the dragon boat deck.

Leaving a few ravines.

The chainsaw sword was wrapped in crystal flames and slashed vertically.

There was a piercing sound at the moment of the collision.

The sparks burst from the crossing, and the corners of the robes blown by the air made a hunting sound.

The muscles of his right arm were knotted, and the burst of power resisted the impact from the front, and Shen Qiong's gaze locked on the heartless demon in front of him.

Compared to the monsters that were intercepted by the members of the escort team before, although the creature in front of him still maintained its human size, its skin was wrapped in a monster-like exoskeleton, and the joints were full of adhesion and festering flesh.

Stop~

The sound of breaking the air sounded in my ears.

Without hesitation, he pulled out the large-caliber pistol on his waist, the scale at the end of the barrel turned, and the muzzle flashed blood-colored.

Aim your gun with your backhand behind you and pull the trigger.

His near-instinctive combat instinct allowed Shen Qiong to easily smash the long-cone-shaped tail that shot at him.

At the same time, the eye boy in front of Shen Qiong's forehead finally completed the accumulation.

The dark purple light seemed to shoot out in the next second.

"Captain, save my ......"

The sudden cry for help made Shen Qiong's expression froze, and his eyes turned to the position of the head of the Heartless Demon, facing the distorted face covered by the beast's skull, and his crooked left eye seemed to break free from his beastly nature at this time, and tears of pain flowed out.

Heartbreaker, a monster transformed from a human who has collapsed his mind!

The figure stiffened at the moment when the eyes staggered, Shen Qiong lowered his eyes and caught a glimpse of the "Jing'an" bronze medal hanging from the waist of the Heartless Demon, a touch of struggle flashed in his eyes, and he immediately continued to attack with a ruthless heart.

He knew that the only thing he could do now was to bring eternal peace to his companion in front of him.

However, his hesitation still gave the Heartbreaker a chance.

The reason that had temporarily returned was finally defeated by the erosion of chaos, and at the same time that Shen Qiong launched another attack, the Heartless Demon fell to the ground like a gecko, bypassing Shen Qiong directly in a distorted posture, and rushed straight to the house where the altar was located.

Worst!

Shen Qiong was annoyed by her temporary weakness, and hurriedly wanted to make up for it, but she couldn't catch up with this special individual in the heartless demon.

The mindless demon affected by the chaos had already sensed the abnormality in the house.

Somebody is urging them to destroy the existence of the house.

At this moment, the heartless demon clad in the remains of the beast seemed to have really become a fierce beast that exploded with all its might, and smashed into the steel defense line formed by the shield guards with all four limbs.

The heavy exoskeleton of the body is like a battering ram, easily opening a gap.

The circle was ahead, and the preoccupied old Taoist and the girl did not notice that the defense line had been breached.

The will of chaos descends.

The Heartless Demon who rushed into the house swooped down on the nearest old Taoist who was behind the altar.

The bone claw probed forward, and in the next second, it was about to pierce the back of the old Dao Chief's head and completely strangle him.

However, just as it was about to achieve its goal, a bony palm poked out of the darkness and pressed it on top of its head first, forcibly blocking its forward momentum, followed by a powerful knee!

Kara~

There were no accidents, accompanied by a crisp cracking sound.

This heartless demon who finally broke through the defense line completely lost his combat power and collapsed to the ground.

"The Descendant...... Finally, we succeeded, and the gods of Li Huo did not abandon us! ”

The old Taoist knelt on the ground with excitement on his face, looked at the man around him who still had some flames that had not burned out, and shouted in a trembling voice.

Dawn Fire God?

Yan Jing, who had just descended through the torch, looked at the old Taoist leader in some surprise, looked down at the strange appearance on his side, and quickly moved his gaze to the statue of the god monarch on the altar and the torch.

A way to come before like this.

The identity given by the torch this time seems to be somewhat special?

Moreover, the previous quest prompt has also been reduced by a part, which is really weird.

Because it's a conscription mission, it's different in many places......

There wasn't much time to think about it, and the shouts of killing in front of him drew Yan Jing's attention back to the battlefield.

First, he scanned his surroundings at great speed, the situation on both sides of the battle.

On the one hand, Yan Jing keenly noticed that the architectural style of this world was somewhat biased towards the mechanical style of the industrial revolution in the current world, but on the basis of the latter, it seemed to surpass it, and the weapons in the hands of those soldiers were the best proof of this.

On the other hand, the situation on the human side seems to be a bit bad, at least the soldiers in front of them are already in a bitter battle.

Even with a modified weapon, it still seems to be powerless in the face of monsters with strange appearances and fearless fears of death.

Locking on to the enemy, Yan Jing, who had long been accustomed to the dangers of another world, stepped forward.

It's a good time to take this opportunity to experiment with the special environment of this world!

Catching a gunman who was knocked away by the monster, Yan Jing didn't intend to communicate at this time, but rushed straight to the front line.

Instead of taking the time to explain something, you can explain it all with action!

The man who suddenly joined the battlefield quickly attracted the attention of a group of members of the escort, including Shen Qiong, and they soon realized that this person was the Divine Descender sent by the God of Li Huo after many years.

The reason is simple.

The man's crushing attitude towards a group of heartless demons in front of him is enough to prove that he is by no means an ordinary person.

【Tide Resistance】【Wind】

The two major special effects of Tiger Jiao's relics were successively blessed by Yan Jing.

However, the two elemental spiritual energies of wind and water, which could be easily controlled in a normal state, became particularly weak at this moment.

No, it's not.

The elemental psionic energy is still there, and the wind and water in the environment are not missing, after all, this is the foundation of the world.

It's just that Yan Jing can clearly feel that his communication with the elemental spiritual energy in the environment has been greatly restricted.

An invisible barrier separates the two sides.

It was as if there was a will that suppressed the elemental psionic energy of this world, forcibly restraining their original vitality, and blocking any spiritual power that wanted to connect with them.

Of course, this did not prevent Yan Jing from killing in all directions in the midst of the monster horde.

After the relics of the Tiger Jiao, the body of the Haoxuan Sutra and the Dragon and Tiger Yama Statue has already become a real weapon!

A whip leg snapped the neck of the mongrel monster in front of him, turned around and retracted his leg, the red devil's gauntlet had already appeared in his arms, and red energy gathered from his hands.

This is......

Looking at the crimson energy mass that had obviously shrunk by half compared to the past, Yan Jing couldn't help frowning.

The energy core of the Red Demon Gauntlet's armor lies in the built-in soul core, Yan Jing originally thought that this kind of energy should be able to avoid the impact, but now this situation undoubtedly shows that the condition of the Red Demon Gauntlet's armor is only better than the elemental spiritual energy.

With a new understanding of the harshness of the environment, Yan Jing decisively abandoned the Glaive Knife, which required a lot of energy, and instead condensed a pair of knuckle tigers to use as weapons to avoid direct contact with these monsters.

The fist slammed into the oncoming monster with the sound of breaking wind, smashing its claws and blasting it away with another punch.

Yan Jing's figure flickered and moved among the monsters, and with every step he took, monsters overturned at his feet, and his strong physical fitness was vividly displayed in melee combat.

The shield guards who had been struggling to find the backbone of the body.

Without the need for extra orders, the soldiers took the initiative to gather around Yan Jing, followed in his footsteps, and slashed some of the heartless demons who had been knocked to the ground by him and were still struggling to get up.

"Oracle?"

Shen Qiong, who had returned, looked at Yan Jing, who was killing in all directions, and looked excited, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only ask tentatively.

"I am here by the order of the God of Lihuo to assist you in guarding the dragon boat in the sky!"

The existence of the torch cannot be exposed at will, but the previous task prompt did not know what, and did not give the details of the main quest, Yan Jing simply followed what he heard before to make up an identity for himself,

"I don't know anything about your situation here, what's the situation now?"

The Torch's linguistic proficiency plays a huge role in this moment.

Yan Jing maintained the rhythm of the battle, easily cleaned up the heartless demons near the door, and used rhetorical questions to occupy the initiative in the conversation.

Due to the "laziness" of the torch, or rather the special circumstances of the call-up mission.

Yan Jing could only find out what he wanted to know in this way.

"We were attacked by winged serpents, who surrounded the dragon boat, constantly unleashing chaotic energy, influencing our will, creating mindless demons that tried to disintegrate us from within...... It won't be long before the second round of attacks is coming! ”

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the old Taoist who had just come out and the girl named Ah Ruo, seeing the former nodding solemnly to himself, Shen Qiong no longer hesitated, and then half-knelt on the ground and arched his hand,

"Ask God to help us get out of this difficult situation!"

As the words fell, the surrounding soldiers also knelt on the ground.

"Condition Met Detected."

"The main quest [Aid] has been activated, to help the Sky Survey Dragon Boat survive the crisis, current progress: 5%!"

"The Remnant Apostles will return in three days, please pay attention to the time limit, and you will be punished for failing the mission!"

The prompts that sounded in his mind one after another made Yan Jing stunned in place, the main quest was actually activated in this way?

It's not that Yan Jing hasn't encountered a similar situation, but whether it is [Jingjiang Wei Town] or [Demon City], Yan Jing activates additional tasks, but this time it is the main line.

Obviously, in the conscription mission, the degree of freedom given by the torch is much stronger than that of normal otherworldly events, and even the main quest has to be mined by the remaining apostles themselves.

Not only that, but the Torch mentions the punishment for mission failure for the first time in the conscription mission, which is not a straightforward erasure......

However, in Yan Jing's view, this is not good news.

Just as in the last time in Jingjiang Town, the torch allowed the remaining apostles to return directly, but it was only a punishment to lower the event score.

This "welfare" in itself portends extreme danger!

At this time, Yan Jing had already come from the house to the square outside the door because of the change in the location of the battlefield, and he finally saw the scene outside the door clearly.

Rao was prepared before he came.

Yan Jing, who saw the empty dragon boat for the first time, was still shocked.

Look out.

The first thing that catches your eye is a castle tower shrouded in night.

Under the reflection of the firelight everywhere, Yan Jing clearly saw that a large number of troops were moving between the city towers, as if they were guarding against something.

It is also flanked by solid ramparts, a large complex of buildings built on a metal basis, with turrets at intervals and large-caliber heavy guns pointed diagonally into the sky.

Yan Jing's location was in the central area, and this seemed to be only the inner area, and there was an even larger open space outside the tower.

On the left and right are propeller-like thrusters and huge mechanical wings that are constantly flapping.

When I raised my head, I couldn't see the stars, but there was a dark yellow full moon with an exceptionally large and strange color hanging high in the sky.

This is a giant dragon boat cruising in the air at an altitude of 10,000 meters!

Tong ~ Tong ~ Tong ~

The roaring cannon pulled Yan Jing's thoughts back, and he couldn't help but look in the direction where the sound came from, it was the cannon erected on the city tower that suddenly opened fire, but there was no clear target.

All the shells indiscriminately blasted into the dark canopy around the dragon boat.

It's not so much an explicit attack as it's more like a loud noise and light that drives something away in this way.

The troops upstairs in Yan Jing City had no intention of coming down to help defend against the Heartless Demon from just now, even if it had become a melee situation here, and now that it had turned around, they still did not move.

Obviously, in their eyes, it is also extremely important to defend the tower.

Yan Jing's conjecture was quickly verified by Shen Qiong.

"The attack of the Winged Serpent has begun, and we must stop this group of Chaos Monsters from boarding the dragon boat, otherwise the spread of Chaos Energy will cause a large-scale spread of heart loss...... Oracle, come with me! ”

From the moment the cannon was fired on the city tower, Shen Qiong looked extremely nervous, and on the premise of leaving a few people to protect the old Taoist and the girl, he took Yan Jing straight to the right side of the city tower.

Although Yan Jing didn't know what the Winged Serpent was, he still chose to follow Shen Qiong quickly, and at the same time as their side began to act, several airships had already taken off in the buildings in front of them.

Unlike the kind of airboat that Yan Jing had seen in Immortal Palace City, the one that took off in the dragon boat at this time was undoubtedly much simpler.

However, although it is not as advanced as the former's intelligent technology assistance, it has a special mechanical beauty.

Their attacks are the same as the turrets around the towers, simply to release as much light and heat as possible, like a fire raised by wilderness travelers, in order to intimidate the horrors of the darkness.

Only this time, it didn't work out much.

Just as the airship that had first rushed into the night began to fire indiscriminately at its surroundings, the thick darkness was stirred.

The huge black shadow shrouded in the moonlight could no longer be suppressed.

A head like a poisonous snake suddenly appeared, and the bloody mouth full of sharp teeth bit the empty boat more than three meters long, like a beast preying on a hare, easily crushing the latter's entirety.

Shen Qiong, who was running, stopped, her face turned pale for a while, and Yan Jing, who sensed the danger, also tightened her brows.

With Lu Wu's golden eyes, he saw the presence in the night......

Flying in the sky are huge creatures that look like poisonous snakes.

It has a bizarre and twisted head, and appendages with huge hooked claws, and floats easily in the air with terrifying wings like black rubber!
