Section 47: Echoes of the Old Days
Two hours ago.
The same area that will be scanned by the Truth Hedron in the future.
- I failed.
When the raiding team, with the Thunderbolt Fruit holder as the striker and dozens of elite Lower Marlohan Warriors as wings, suddenly appeared within a hundred meters, Alexandra knew that all her plans had failed. She couldn't get the reincarnation resources that would allow her to leave here with dignity, and she wasn't even sure if she would be able to leave here safely.
There was a sting in his mind, and the mental trap he had set in the Nanyanzhou team had just been detonated, and the effect was completely erased under the suppression of some unknown countermeasure - the Nanyanzhou team hid more cards than he expected. It wasn't until this moment that she knew that the Nanyanzhou team had actually set up a secret hand of a dual spiritual power.
Xue Ling'er is just a target on the bright side, and the real 'eye' is Neos. The moment he detonated the trap, he attacked. As a result, his mental strength parameters were obviously lower than his own, but he was able to slightly outperform himself on this raiding battlefield.
Can't win...... However, try to escape.
He doesn't have the chips in his hand that can blackmail the other party, and he can't use words that can fool a wise man. If you can't escape from here, the only outcome is to become a bonus point in the other party's hands.
Get...... Run away!
"Stop them!" She gives orders to her puppet, and she asks George and Michael, who are bewitched by her, to use their lives to delay a way out for themselves. She pressed her forehead and watched the black and white burst out of blood and qi all over their bodies, striding towards this powerful raid team in a self-destructive manner. And at the same moment, slap the armrest of the wheelchair with your free hand.
"Let's go!" Her only teammate is Hedrant, whose exchange ability is to activate artifacts.
She couldn't leave the last person on her side because she didn't want to lose too many points. And now is not the time to give up on this last assistant.
The handmade wheelchair swelled suddenly, transforming and expanding into a giant spider made of gears, wood, and steel the moment the golems collided with the raid team. Hydrant, who had tried to answer Alexandra, drove it with all his might, allowing it to carry the two of them towards the area away from the attacker.
Run.
The faster you run, the better.
The terrain on both sides is stretched into straight lines in the rapidly changing field of view. The collision and screaming behind him could not keep up with the pace of escape that exceeded the speed of sound. The impact of spiritual power from afar broke through the air round after round. And there are a lot of insidious tricks hidden in the killing.
- 'Stop.' ’
There was a sound that exploded in my ears. This is a mantra condensed by spiritual power, and it has an extremely specialized deterrent effect. Its power was not enough to shake Alexandra's mental body, but in the form of aftermath, it acted on her companions who were protected by the maiden's best efforts.
A muffled snort.
Hedrant's cheeks, which controlled the activation machine, turned white, and his eyes suddenly became in a trance. Nyos' goal was her from the start, and that made her control over the animate spider's mind stuck.
'Boom-' A meteor suddenly spawned, and the ultra-long-range cast originally had the flaw of accuracy. But because of this little stuckness of Heydrant, he was able to hit the target. It takes just over 100 milliseconds from spawn to fall. Even if the new veterans of the East American team wake up in time, they can only make a reluctant avoidance.
Flames burst at the spider's feet. The sturdy reactive structure disintegrates and cracks into debris in an instant. Alexandra, who had opened the second-order genetic lock, carried her last companion and fled in the explosion. She unfurls the shielding area, leaving in place an illusion of fleeing in the other direction.
This is not a good thing.
Psychic powers can unfold the shielded area, which can certainly prevent accurate scanning at close range and shelter their companions in the shielded area. But at the same time, it has also become a striking fixed target in the eyes of hostile psychic powers—since the fortress has been erected, it must face a siege cannon full of malice. If the other party chooses to hack at this time, then they can only fight hard, and they can't escape as they want when the shielding zone is not deployed.
And the offensive is coming.
Two against one, not only Neos, but also Xue Ling'er, a defeated man.
The scenery in front of the girl's eyes distorted like a phantom, accompanied by the announcement of the Lord God in her ears.
- [The East American team loses one point if one person is killed.] It is currently minus two points. 】
The puppet died one, was it George? Or Michael? No, it doesn't matter. On a battlefield where two people can't hold on, when there is only one person left, they will naturally die faster. It doesn't take long for the next announcement to sound in my head.
My head hurts.
Visions appeared in Alexandra's eyes. She saw the fragmentary past of her before she entered the reincarnation team, and saw the various decisions and plans she made after Zhao Yukong's death - she successfully stopped Xue Ling'er, but she couldn't stop Neos from moving forward. Some information that is not very important is being read by the other party at random, and his own brain is making a near-dying resistance.
Have to...... Just run away. Want...... Escape underground!
She reluctantly removed the scroll from her storage ring, first using teleportation, but unsurprisingly she had a dimensional anchor attached to her. And since you can't escape by jumping, you have to settle for the next best thing and use another chip that also relies on your legs.
Earthwalkers, the movement of the leylines.
The moment the scroll was torn open, the solid ground beneath his feet turned into a swamp of mud in an instant. The blonde psychic dragged his exclamated companion and plunged down to the bottom of the dirt. And she was glad that she had scanned the underground once before when she was preparing for battle.
She had a good memory, and she calculated that there was a relatively large underground cavern three hundred meters below her feet. The caverns were filled with strange underground creatures, but before the scroll's magic ran out, it was the best place she could find a place to stay.
'Woo-' The body hit the ground, and even with the armor to resist, the double trauma to her mind and body made Alexandra frown. It was impossible for her to retract the shielding area at such a time, and the serial offensive of the hostile psychic power had not stopped.
- [The East American team loses one point if one person is killed.] It is currently minus three points. 】
The puppets are dead.
The remaining two members of the East American team do not have reliable melee strength. Next, as long as their whereabouts are exposed, as long as they are found by Nan Yan's melee ability, the two of them will immediately be dead.
It's terrible. Realizing this desperate situation, the body of the spiritual power couldn't help but shake. She almost fell to the ground, but fortunately she had one last companion by her side who could hold her up.
"Miss Alexandra! You, you're okay! Heydrant's voice was overwhelmed with panic. In a panic, she pulled out a high-tech lamp and activated it in a magical way. Let it float like a moth next to the two girls, providing a certain range of light.
It was dark all around, and in the distance there was a continuous crunch of giant arthropod toes touching the ground. The safety factor of the underground is not much higher than that of the ground.
“…… I'm fine. Alexandra grabbed her wrist, and two pale flames burned in her eyes. A potion used to increase mental power has been injected into her body, which temporarily strengthens the defensive nature of mental power fluctuations, resists the attack of the spiritual power of the Nanyanzhou team, and also provides her with some spare power that can be used for other things.
The sound of arthropod touching stopped, and the next moment, a faint white light lit up at the same time in the dozen compound eyes in the darkness. This huge insect that inhabits the ground became a temporary help for the two of them at this moment. Alexandra made a gesture for Hedrant to help herself climb onto the back of the giant worm.
It is dangerous to stay where you are.
The worm quickly moved, and Hydrant used the roots of the vines and various ores to create a rudimentary saddle that could hold the two of them to the worm's back. However, even if they were moving quickly underground on a giant worm, a strong sense of crisis still lingered in the hearts of the two of them.
And that's just the beginning...... This won't end easily. Soon there will be the next battle, and any hand-to-hand combat will only lead to death.
The air in the cave was cold and muddy. Hedrant, who was lying tightly on the saddle, couldn't help but tremble.
Miss Alexandra...... her heart was beating violently, and she couldn't help but speak. We...... Can you escape? ”
"We can get away." Alexandra nodded vigorously. A new round of spiritual power impact struck again, and pieces of illusion fluctuations appeared in her eyes again. "We're going to get out."
She squeezed Heydrant's hand tightly.
She was in despair, but she knew she still had room to fight.
So......
- I will not give up.
She thought. In her mind, her will echoed silently.
[I won't give up. 】
[Whether it's Sister Sakura or Brother Sakura, any of you, I won't give up. 】
She shuddered suddenly, and she seemed to hear the voice of a strange girl, echoing in her head.
- It happened...... What?
The feeling was fleeting, and she subconsciously looked at her last companion. And in Heydrant's blank eyes, she only saw her own appearance that had not changed significantly from her usual appearance.
"Heydland...... Did I just say something? She asked subconsciously.
She got an answer right away.
"You just said ...... We're going to be able to escape? ”
It seems to be just an illusion.
It may just be some meaningless whispering illusions generated when the mental power is attacked.
Alexandra breathed a sigh of relief. She suddenly felt that the other party's offensive seemed to have weakened a lot.
No...... No, it seems to be...... You're a lot stronger?
Trying to turn back into the second beast, so there should be a section _(:з"∠)_ later.
