Chapter 230: Sandworm Territory
Nephalan led the group into the teleportation array, targeting one of the nearest military bases of the Eternal Alliance. The group needs to take a military airship to the target location.
"The base of the Holy Avengers is built in the war zone of tribulation in the eternal battlefield. Brandon walked beside everyone and introduced, "It's in the hinterland of the human camp, far away from the battle area, so everyone can cultivate with peace of mind after arriving at the base." "Brandon has been temporarily appointed captain of this troop. So I began to dutifully introduce the situation of the base to everyone.
Esther listened quietly, but did not dare to look at Nefaran. After all, the opponent's Force level is too high, and the awakened people who come down from the battlefield are extremely sensitive to the perception of the Force, if Esther even has a glance sweeping over, Nepharan may be able to sense it.
The military airship docked in the square of the coalition base, and groups of soldiers rushed out of the barracks to begin their daily exercises. After a brief handover, Brandon commanded the new soldiers into the military airship.
A few minutes later, the military airship floated into the air, blue flames gushing out of the huge jets, and then propelled the military airship towards its intended goal.
Since the Holy Avenger's base is located in the Tribulation Zone, it is inevitable that they will have to cross the combat area along the route of the flight. During this period, the military airship was intercepted by many Tyranid fighters, but fortunately, several heavy guns wielded their effects, and several fighters were shot down in a short confrontation, which ensured that the military airship passed through the battle area safely and soundly.
Nearly ten kilometers away from the Holy Avengers base, the military airship suddenly opened the hatch, and then Esther heard Nephalan's voice from the loudspeaker: "Now, all jump out of the airship." Your first mission into the Holy Avengers is to hike through the war zone ahead. I must warn you that the enemy that haunts this is the newest class of the Tyranids, the Ripper. Their combat abilities range from Warrior Level 9 to Hero Level 10, and some of them are special Rippers, whose combat strength is already close to Hero Level 11, so you have to be extra careful. You will not receive any assistance in this mission, and if you die, it will only show your incompetence. ”
Without waiting for everyone to ask, the military airship tilted sharply, and the recruits let out an exclamation, and one by one they were knocked down by the military airship like beans.
The wind whistled in my ears. Esther visually measured the distance, less than a hundred meters, and for an Awakened Hero of the tenth level, this distance was not a threat at all, so Esther adjusted his posture. He fell straight to the ground.
The ground shook with a loud noise, and one by one the recruits stepped out of the pit beneath their feet. Galahad stood beside Easter and asked with a smile, "This is where our cooperation begins, right?"
Ista nodded: "Of course, after all, if you encounter a large number of Rippers, you can't escape with the strength of one person alone. ”
"It seems that you have also shown the key point of this mission, which is to escape. Avoid needless fighting!" Galahad said, "so what you're going to do is just rush over." Or let the guys behind you be bait?"
"Your thoughts are too dark, aren't they?" Esther said he didn't say anything, though he was more inclined to the second option, "We need to observe the Ripper's attack pattern first. Otherwise, it is easy to fall into passivity if you rush over. ”
Galahad nodded: "Just what I want, let's go." ”
As the two spoke, they began to sprint with great tacit understanding, making a gesture that they wanted to penetrate the entire battle area directly. The awakened people behind the two of them were a little flustered, although their strength was not weak, but most of them had not experienced the tempering of life and death. So seeing the two of them charging regardless of a qiē, they also subconsciously followed the footsteps of the two. After all, the Easters are the strongest of the newcomers. As long as you follow the two of them, you can also ensure enough safety.
This combat area is a rubble wasteland. The vast plains are covered with boulders of various shapes, and in the distance, you can see huge sandworms constantly burrowing in and out of the ground. This terrifying native creature is nearly ten meters long, and the adult sandworm feeds on minerals in the sand, and will have a chance to eat extra if a creature invades its territory. Due to the perennial devouring of minerals, the body surface of the sandworm is covered with irregular metal fragments, which are like heavy armor to protect the huge body of the sandworm, and at the same time, the sandworm can travel more freely underground.
Esther glanced at the giant sandworm, as the king of this territory, the sandworm did not shy away from showing its huge body in front of any living thing. The shell that shimmered with metallic luster was daunting, and the terrifying body of nearly ten meters brought a great sense of oppression.
"It's really enough to run into sandworms. A tall, lanky recruit said with some chagrin. After all, in the wasteland, no one wants to encounter a rampaging sandworm. Their defense is amazing, and adult sandworms can almost resist the full force of the Hero Level 10 Awakened without damage. As for their attack, they have huge mouthparts like wheels and the power to manipulate sand.
Esther and Galahad, of course, saw it too, so the two wisely chose to take a detour. Sandworms are very territorial, and once they feel that their territory is being invaded, they will attack regardless of the qiē. The two of them didn't want to get themselves into such a big problem.
However, it was obvious that General Nefaran would not make it so easy for everyone, and the military airship did not fly away, but instead fired a cannonball at the huge body of the sandworm. The timing of the military airship's cannon was just right, just as the entire team of recruits was advancing along the outskirts of the Sandworm's territory. The cannonball landed on the sandworm. A terrifying creature with a metal shell. When the cannonball hit it, it only took out an arc, and it was knocked away by the body of the sandworm.
But the cannon apparently had the effect it should have, attracting the attention of the sandworms. The huge body slammed up, and then the three pairs of compound eyes on the bucket-like head stared at the people of Esther at the same time.
"Sprint!"
Esther immediately made a decision, reminded the recruits behind him, and then ran wildly, since he had already disturbed the sandworm, Esther did not go far, and rushed straight towards the sandworm's territory. Galahad followed, his pale pupils flashing with lightning, and then his degree suddenly increased, and he even surpassed Esther in one fell swoop to rush to the first position, which alone is not something that ordinary awakened people can achieve.
Suddenly, the sandworm's huge mouthparts opened, and Esther could even see the sharp teeth that kept spinning inside, and a piercing scream came out of the sandworm's mouthparts. Esther felt a softness under his feet, and the ground he was on moved like quicksand. Esther forcibly rose from the ground, and the next moment he saw a terrifying crack open on the ground like the mouth of a fierce beast, and sharp spears made of sand flew out of the crack and went straight to Esther in mid-air.
The flame slash appeared out of thin air, and then slashed out in mid-air, and the sand spears were all cut into two pieces without exception and then shattered. Esther raised his left hand and blasted out a Force impact, pulling his body up more than ten meters again, in mid-air he opened the panoramic map, and instantly scanned the ground, Easter's entire ground was now cut into countless rectangles, some of which were marked with red, while others were marked green. Esther made a bold attempt, landing his feet on the green area, and sure enough, he didn't suffer any attacks. It seems that the ability of the sandworm is not invulnerable, after all, it is impossible to move such a huge range of ability skills to be perfect.
"Follow my foothold!"
Esther reminded loudly, and then stepped on several safe areas. The recruits were caught off guard by the ability of the sand worms, but fortunately, their strength was not weak, and they were all enough to deal with it, but they were a little depressed by the sneak attack of the sand spear. The most relaxed was Galahad, his whole body was swirled with electricity, it was almost extreme, and as soon as the sand spear appeared, he had already rushed over, not giving the sand spear any chance to attack at all.
After Easter finished shouting, everyone also realized that the position where Easter was standing would not be attacked at all, so they all gathered towards him, Easter has been paying attention to the color changes on the ground, fortunately, once the sandworm's ability moves, it cannot be changed lightly, otherwise this ability is absolutely incomprehensible.
Adult sandworms can be called intelligent creatures, otherwise they would not be able to become the overlord of one side, seeing that their range attacks did not have any effect, and not even a single intruder was killed. It roared again, and its massive body slammed into the ground.
Easter's face changed slightly, as he had sensed a scarlet color surging towards the ground beneath his feet.
"Follow me, run!"
Esther roared loudly, and then made a dodge move. Other recruits react differently. The tall and thin recruit just now was obviously a little distracted, and directly guided his dodge movement a beat slower. The next moment, the huge body of the sandworm soared into the sky, and the tall and thin recruit was thrown into the air like a broken puppet, and then fell to the ground hard, pierced by the flying spear.
"Hell!"
Esther scolded secretly, suddenly stopped retreating, and then looked at Galahad: "Do you have the guts to kill me back?"
Galahad suddenly burst out laughing: "I'm afraid you won't say this!"
Esther let out a long roar, and the flame slash in his hand had already rushed forward. Galahad clasped his hands in the void, his pale pupils glowing with lightning, and then two bolts of lightning erupted, forming a sharp spear in his hand!
