Chapter 56: A Master of Weapons?

Glancing faintly at the half-cut corpse behind him that had been trampled into mud by the accompanying ant tide, Xu Yue raised his eyes to look at the other attacker who was violently whipped away by the halberd in the distance.

Just as he was about to continue his actions to completely finish off the other party, the beast's intuitive crisis perception began to warn wildly, Xu Yue's pupils contracted suddenly, and he saw a bright white pillar of light coming from the front right.

The attack speed of the pillar of light was extremely fast, and when he reacted, the distance between them was less than a few meters, and the dazzling white light continued to amplify between the pupils, just when the pillar of light was about to directly paste his face.

A large and heavy tower shield suddenly appeared, firmly blocking the offensive route of the pillar of light, and the two collided violently, with a muffled sound accompanied by the spread of scattered white light.

The Earth Tower Shield began to glow red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the gluttonous pace of rushing forward also froze for a moment under the pressure of the strong thrust.

In the next moment, the two-meter-tall heavy tower shield suddenly cracked automatically from the middle, and before the bright white light pillar in front of it could drive in, a Fang Tian painting halberd entwined by golden red flames had already taken the lead in breaking through the air from between the cracks in the tower shield.

The sharp halberd blade condensed a faint white glow, which made it easy for it to neatly cut the pillar of light from the middle, and the halberd quickly penetrated along the direction of the attack, and the originally disembodied pillar of energy light was also split in two like a fragile bamboo pole at this time.

On the upper floor of the dense forest, on the thick branches, crouched a proud mechanical girl, holding a silver-white precision hand cannon in her arms, and the bright white pillars of light were constantly gushing out from the front of the muzzle.

As a top-notch mechanical department of the first order, she was confident that no creature within the first order could survive under this purple energy cannon with full rating.

As long as it hits, even if the opponent has a physical defense that can block a heavy sniper rifle, the extreme temperature contained in the light cannon can instantly roast the opponent's brain, and she is the real killer in this ambush.

The light cannon in her arms roared, and the proud confidence on her face continued until the heavy tower shield suddenly appeared, and when the tower shield split, a Fang Tian painting halberd that could cut through the pillar of light flew straight out, and the confidence completely turned into horror.

Under the gunner's horrified gaze, the halberd slashed through the pillar of light in a powerful manner, and finally shattered the hand cannon in his arms into a cloud of shattered parts, and then pierced through the chest, sending her whole flying away, nailing her to the massive tree trunk behind her.

The chest cavity and lungs were pierced together, and the already crispy blood volume instantly slipped below the death line, and the painful wail had not yet had time to come out of the throat, and the golden red fire streaks wrapped around the halberd body had already erupted first, and the terrifying golden red flames poured into the chest cavity along the halberd blade that penetrated the body.

In just a moment, the gunner let out a quick and brief scream, and boiling flames erupted from her beautiful features, and her proud figure was shriveled and twisted in an instant, turning into a withered, charred corpse hanging high on the trunk of a tree.

On the other side, when the halberd cut through the pillar of light, taking advantage of the gap when the powerful main weapon was finally taken off, the tree trunks on the left and right sides of Xu Yue suddenly exploded, and the two contractors hidden in the trunks revealed their figures, one of them slashed down with a long knife in his hand, and the steel spear in front of one of them stabbed directly, and attacked the key point of the target from both sides.

The golden-red eyes moved left and right in the eye sockets, and the fiery gaze swept over the cold light flickering on the two sharp blades on his side, and the half-cut remnant shield on Xu Yue's right hand was rapidly transformed, and the magic knife thousand blades were impressively in his hand.

Swish!!

A scream sounded in place, and the magic knife in his hand surrounded his body, and a round of demonic purple rings bloomed in midair, dazzling.

After a few breaths, the ring receded, and the speed of Xu Yue's charge did not decrease at all, while behind him were two headless corpses that fell to the ground, being trampled by the ant tide one after another.

At the moment when the sword light bloomed, the two attackers didn't think about parrying, but it didn't play a role, the strongest part of the magic knife thousand blades was the terrifying attack power that could not be defended, the blade composed of thousands of fragments directly swept through the long knife steel spear that blocked the way, and instantly beheaded the contractor in the rear, and they fell into eternal darkness before they even had time to use the means of exhaustion.

As the organizer of this ambush, after experiencing the exaggerated power of the target's single blow to shatter the big sword in his hand, he knew that the team's last hope of survival was also shattered.

Whether it is the overwhelming ant tide or the initiator of this unrivaled ant tide, it is not a force that their team can contend with.

As Tosaway's body hit the ground heavily, the last image left in his blood-soaked vision was the huge paws of the exposed claws of the glutton.

Ignoring the broken corpse on the ground whose head was crushed by gluttony, Xu Yue suddenly turned around in reverse during the charge, raised his eyes in a posture of 'riding a donkey upside down', and at the same time raised the Xiaoyun longbow that appeared in his hand at some point, opened the string, the arrow condensed, and released!

The brilliant golden arrow turned into a beam of golden light and shot out, colliding with an incoming emerald green arrow in mid-air, the two colors were different, but the same sharp arrow was connected, the emerald green arrow was directly pierced into scattered fine points of light, and the brilliant golden arrow continued to move forward along the trajectory of the attack.

After a few breaths, a pillar of golden-red fire rose into the sky in the canopy of the dense forest, mixed with a terrible scream, and then there was no more sound.

Paradise's kill prompt sounded in his ears, Xu Yue straightened his body with an indifferent expression, the longbow in his hand quickly merged into his body, and at the same time, his right hand was weakly held, and Zhang Er's Fang Tian Painting Halberd automatically flew back from behind, and was clenched by his right hand.

When the halberd waved, the trunks of the trees blocking the way in front of him shattered and flew, and the bright light poured into his eyes, and there was an open space in front of him.

The forest had reached its end, and as far as the eye could see, there was a vast green plain and the crumbling tide of black ants on the plain.

The ambush just now was not the first time, and it would not be the last, he had long been accustomed to it along the way, as long as the group hunt continued, the ambush would not be stopped, and for this group of besieged contractors, he was the only chance to live.

But it's a pity that if you want to kill Xu Yue in the state of the legion's blessing, the difficulty can only be said to be similar compared to the encirclement and suppression of the ant tide.

In the face of these ambushes, he didn't even have to waste too much effort, as long as he pushed all the way through, the black tide sweeping behind him would crush those lucky attackers into slag.

Listening to the faint wail of dying behind him, Xu Yue stopped drinking at the edge of the plain, where a man and a beast stopped, and the rushing ant tide behind him automatically divided a gap around him, and his footsteps kept pounced on the many alien creatures in front of him who were in the encirclement.

Looking at the bloody slaughter in front of him with cold eyes, Xu Yue just stayed where he was, wisps of purple flames flying from the wreckage of the lush forest behind him, and he slowly absorbed them.

At this point, there was no need for him to continue to fight in the subsequent battles, and after a wave of encirclement, at least 80% of the land creatures in this forest were strangled by the Xuanjia army.

There is no need for any subtle tactics, and there is no need to pay attention to the strategy of the art of war, under the strength of the crushing legion of the ant clan, the trapped beast is still a joke, and the siege and flat push are enough to solve all the prey on this island.

Just a few minutes later, the alienated creatures in the encirclement have all been wiped out, and the ant tide has also completed the assembly on the plain again, Xuan Jun walked from the front, bowed slightly and said:

"General, this dense forest has been encircled and suppressed, but there is a large lake twenty kilometers away, do we need to deviate the route?"

"Offset?"

Extinguishing the low-quality fires around him, Xu Yue looked sideways at the eyeless giant ant beside him, and said lightly:

"Xuan Jun, we will soon strangle the so-called god who is sleeping in the temple, for the current ant clan, these gods living in the water are no different from the group of prey in the dense forest that was encircled and suppressed just now, and even hunting these gods and dependents will be more convenient."

"After all, wild beasts can escape the woods, but fish can't get out of the waters, can they?"

"Her Majesty is now in need of a lot of blood food and Seagod's divine power, and this kind of large body of water is the best ......"

Before the words fell, Xu Yue suddenly paused, he suddenly looked up at an ordinary bird in the sky above the ant tide, the longbow in his hand appeared, and then the arrow broke through the air, and a burning golden red fireball suddenly fell straight from the sky.

After dealing with the peeping bird, his gaze inadvertently swept over a small yellow dot in the distance, but he did not strike again, withdrew the longbow in his hand, he lowered his eyes to the end of the plain directly ahead, and ordered:

"Inform the whole army to prepare to advance, the next target, a large lake twenty miles ahead."

"Yes!"

A moment later, the entire army of ants rushed towards the end of the plain, leaving only the wreckage of a lush forest all over the place, and the blood-colored ground was covered with mutilated corpses and fallen giant trees, and there was no life in sight.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the herds are destroying everywhere they go, they are only here to destroy.

It wasn't until ten minutes had passed that the ruins began to tremble again, and another wave of ants came from afar, they were military workers who had come with the Black Xuan Legion, and after the destruction was over, they needed to move all the materials on the battlefield that were beneficial to the ant clan back to their nests.

In the process of cleaning up the battlefield, they will even drag out some creatures hiding in the ground to kill, not letting go of every dead end, if the Black Xuan Legion led by Xu Yue is a fearless iron rider who crushes everything, then these military workers are greedy and meticulous wilderness hyenas.

……………

In the mountains, far from the wreckage of the woods, a small group of adventurers gathered halfway up the mountain.

Seven or eight contractors were standing or sitting, but they were all staring solemnly at a holographic projection screen in mid-air, and it was Xu Yue who was surrounded by ant tides on the screen.

Below the projection, a middle-aged man who was obviously a mechanic knocked on his mechanical right arm, and the holographic projection in mid-air immediately dissipated, he lowered his eyes to look at the head of the regiment wearing a mysterious robe on the left, and slowly shook his head and said:

"The bionic mechanical bird is destroyed, the other party's perception is very keen, it's good to have a canopy in the dense forest, once it is in the open plain, as long as you shift your eyes to him, it will be detected immediately."

After listening to the middle-aged man's explanation, the leader of the adventure group in a robe got up from the stone pier, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Fang Tian painted halberds, tower shields, long knives, bows and arrows...... Damn, Weapon Master? What the hell is this profession, and the savings space is sealed, and these weapons are taken out of there......"

"Attack, defense, long-range, plus the advance of the mount, there is no need to fight, even if we can win, we will at least lose more than half of the battle, it is not cost-effective."

As he spoke, the regimental leader suddenly turned to look at a female contractor in the team who was playing with a small dagger, and asked:

"Limei, if we do our best to control him, do you have a chance to succeed?"

“…… Don't be funny, boss, let's not talk about the tower shield that is at least purple quality, just target the metal defense that can block heavy sniper rifles, my little dagger is even difficult to break the defense, hit it head. ”

Looking at the white eyes of Limei's protest, the head of the regiment also realized how unreliable his question just now was, and he said:

"Uh, okay, then you can only give up this goal, Lao Chen, you send a bionic bird to follow the ant tide from afar, you don't need to peep at the target, you just need to pay attention to the movement of the ant tide at any time, being surrounded by this level of ant tide, once we are trapped, it will be difficult for us to break through."

"Good!"

"Since there is a large colony of ants on the island that can cooperate and command, there must not be only one, what that guy can do, we can't do it, as long as we can master the same power, we can pass this trial completely."

"The next goal, stay away from this area and find other large communities on the island."

"Yes!"

As the words fell, the people on the mountainside suddenly turned into black shadows and dispersed, and in addition to their small adventure group, there were also a large number of trialists in the nearby area who were also moving outward at the same time.

After all, it was difficult not to notice the movement of the Black Xuan Legion, and after observing the specific strength of the ant tide, the image of the invincible natural disaster was quickly unanimously recognized by all observers.

Therefore, it is the best choice to quickly move away from this area ravaged by ant tides, but even if you escape farther, it will only be temporary.

This group hunt led by Xu Yue in advance has just begun, and soon the entire island will fall into a bloody color under the crazy strangulation of the bees, ants, and feathers, as long as it is the creatures on the island, it will eventually be unavoidable.

…………

On the northwest side of Mystic Island, a vast green plain wraps around a large lake with a wide blue pool.

The lake is the largest body of water within a hundred miles, more than half the size of the previous lake in the dense forest, where mountain snapping turtles lived, and where all the land creatures in the vicinity coveted and feared.

The abundant and powerful water creatures in the lake protect these precious water sources rich in the divine power of the sea god, so that the place can always maintain a kind of tranquility like a dark wave.

Just a few hours earlier, the arrival of an uninvited group of guests had shattered the silence on the surface of the large lake, and the sound of fierce fighting accompanied by the painful roars of water creatures continued to spread across the plain, and the terrible movement was driving away all those who tried to approach.

Looking down from above, you can see that the dense black tide has firmly wrapped the lake, and a large number of soldier ants are crowded on the shore of the lake, constantly throwing long-range weapons such as spears and falling rocks towards the lake inside, and at the same time, there are constantly worker ants digging deep ditches in all directions to divert the lake.

The lake in the encirclement has long since changed at this time, the originally blue and clean lake is covered with floating corpses, and the lake water is also mixed with a large amount of blood and a strange yellow-white liquid, blue, red, and yellow are intertwined and mixed, stirring up a chaotic and filthy lake.

The red blood didn't matter, but the yellowish-white liquid was particularly deadly, a vicious mixture of formic acid, venom, and highly toxic fungi, which was extremely corrosive and toxic.

When the venom was poured into the lake, it immediately caused a riot throughout the lake, and the creatures of the water eroded by the venom jumped in pain, and once they jumped out of the lake, they were greeted by sharp spears and heavy falling rocks thrown by the ants.

In the face of these water creatures, the Xuanjia Legion would not be stupid enough to enter the water to fight them, and the best strategy is to force them out of the water through venom and then strangle them one by one, as for those creatures hiding in the lowest layers of the lake, there is nothing to worry about.

To tell the truth, with the number of more than 200,000 Xuanjia Legion and the average size of nearly three meters, as long as you want to destroy this lake, you can completely fill it up in half a day, and those creatures hiding under the water are just surviving.

Again, on this island, as long as it still exists on land, the ant clan can step on it.

Of course, in the face of the encirclement and suppression of the ant tide, these strong creatures living in the lake are not without the power to fight back, as time goes by, one by one amphibians who can not bear the venom erosion begin to jump out of the lake, or actively, or passively and the ant colony on the shore to start a fierce fight.

As far as the eye can see, more than 10 meters of monitor lizard water snakes, crocodile poisonous frogs are surrounded by countless black ants on the edge of the lakeshore, even if they rely on their size advantage, they can crush a large number of soldiers with every slap or roll, but the ant tide that is not afraid of death is always inexhaustible.

The soldier ants climbed up the bodies of these giant beasts in layers, biting with the big jaws of their mouths and stabbing with poisonous needles on their tails, doing everything they could, perfectly interpreting what it means to kill elephants with ants.

Under the continuous weakening of the ant possession tactics, these giant beasts covered in scales and toxins have fallen silent in despair and endless pain, some existences and even their entire brains have been directly bitten through by the soldier ants, and a large number of black soldier ants have entered and exited in the relatively fragile facial features, making their death extremely miserable.
