Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Thermal Weapon Fails
Xiang Ji and Eric walked to the bend of the U-shaped rift valley, the location of the Zerg fortress. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The neighborhood has been turned into a large construction site, the pyramid spire of the Zerg fortress has been bulldozed, and a large number of simple temporary steel structures have been erected on the original foundation of the fortress. A piece of land not far away has been leveled out, where a large number of construction machinery is busy working, looking at this posture to build a house.
In short, this is a scene of construction in full swing. If you look closely, although the construction site is only used with ordinary bulldozers, excavators, and other things, it is not manned. There was not a single living person on the entire construction site, so it was no wonder that Xiang Ji felt that something was wrong.
Is this the containment base under construction?
"Let's go, don't look at it! These things are also Dawn's inventory, just waste use!" Brother Magneto patted Xiang Ji on the shoulder and pulled him away.
A few more steps forward, the two of them quickly crossed the ruined Zerg fortress and arrived at the second half of the U-shaped rift. The terrain here is no different from the first half, but now the insects in the mountains and valleys have basically disappeared, and some monsters are scattered around.
"It's been cleaned up? Eric said. Obviously, the large army that set out first had already launched a sweep against the monsters that stood in its way.
"It's a lot easier, but it's also a lot less. "Xiang Ji is a little regretful. Unlike the last test mission in the Grandmaster World of the Republic of China, the official missions of the reincarnation warriors are all in killing mode, and there are rewards to be taken for each slash of the hostile forces.
It's just that as gatekeepers, the insects mainly rely on the overwhelming number and a steady stream of replenishment abilities to dominate, but the combat effectiveness of this body is average. According to Xiang Ji's estimates, the real combat power of an ordinary sickle insect is slightly stronger than that of a large carnivorous beast in reality, and it is really not a very powerful enemy for the reincarnation warriors who can generally tear apart tigers and leopards.
In fact, the reward for killing these monsters is only one reward point for ten heads, which is also the reason why the big man black spear still cried out for a loss after using the giant cannon to destroy half of the insects in the valley.
"Hey, what are these for? It's just a small snack before the meal, and the real big part of making money is still in the task. Eric retorted.
"That's just as well. Xiang Ji was relieved. The tasks issued by the main god are indeed the bulk of the rewards, and as long as you work hard to complete the tasks well, the rewards are indeed quite generous.
Previously participated in the collective mission of the Exploding Zerg Fortress, the main god opened a total of two D-level side plots, five E-level side plots plus a prize pool of 350,000 reward points (one D-level side plot can be exchanged for 9 E-level side plots, and so on), which seems to be quite good, but it is not much that is actually distributed to more than 200 people.
However, this is only for ordinary participants, as the pathfinder and death squad of the lone assault, Xiang Ji and others get much more. According to the calculation of 40% of the total mission reward promised by Dawn, the seven people who participated in the assault should get a total of D-level side plots and 140,000 reward points, which is already a good harvest as a tentative open-path mission.
It's just that things went wrong halfway, and Black Gun, Gorou Gossip Stick and others died unluckily from Chenxi's intelligence mistakes. In fact, they still have a lot of means that they haven't had time to use, and some amazing art industries may not be inferior to Xiang Ji and others, but they obviously can't compare with Xiang Ji in terms of physical strength and defense, so they can only regret that they will drink and hate, and they will die without a corpse.
According to Dawn's post-battle assessment, the mission reward was appropriately raised, so Xiang Ji and Eric each divided 5 E-level side plots plus 70,000 reward points, and suddenly propped up his empty wallet again.
Phew! Eric whizzed his metal blade and slashed in two at the scythe that swooped down. As they spoke, the two of them had already entered the heart of the valley, and the remaining monsters of Lala pounced on them.
Xiang Ji casually fired two shots at a pounced bug, and the bullet accurately hit the vital point of the Zerg that had been groped in the previous battle, near their head and mouthparts. Compared to the surging sea of insects before, this number of enemies really couldn't put much pressure on Xiang Ji.
The scythe insect that had been hit roared, but instead of convulsing and falling down as before, it rushed towards Xiang Ji even more violently like an enraged beast.
Why is this happening? Xiang Ji frowned, gently let go of the scythe foot that had been chopped over, and kicked out the huge insect weighing hundreds of kilograms with a sideways kick, gliding in the air for seven or eight meters before slamming heavily into the ground.
Hearing the movement, Eric looked back and saw that the sickle worm had been shattered and his brain marrow had been shattered and he had fallen to death on the spot, leaving only his limbs still twitching instinctively.
"Good skills!" were all martial arts practitioners, and Eric saw some of the doorways. The bug's nerve center was destroyed, but the exoskeleton was almost unscathed, and it was not enough to do it with brute force, but with high control skills. Gorou Bagua Stick and others can also be regarded as masters of transformation in the surreal national art plane such as the Romance of the Dragon and Snake, but when it comes to the control of power, it is nothing more than that.
"You're welcome, but why don't my bullets seem to work?" Xiang Ji was a little puzzled.
"It's very simple, the gunpowder has failed! Have you forgotten what Chenxi said earlier? The Book Sword World does not support gunpowder weapons, and we are now slowly approaching the exit of the dimensional rift, and the impact is becoming more and more obvious. Eric reminded.
"I see? It's time for me to get moving. Xiang Ji muttered to himself. Putting the AK in his hand back into the storage space, Xiang Ji's mind moved, and a spear with a slightly dull overall tone appeared in his hand.
The moment the spear appeared, Eric felt the temperature of the nearby air suddenly drop a lot, and a chill hit the surface of his body, and he couldn't help but look sideways. I saw that the body of this gun is not very long, about two meters long, but it is not in good condition, and it is not ordinary at first glance.
The metallic barrel of the gun presents a dull silver, and the golden light spots are faintly visible under the heavy silver, revealing a sense of low-key luxury. Disproportionate to the limited length is the huge head, which is more than 50 centimeters long.
Several conical tips are stacked on top of each other to form a sharp, murderous blade, and the silhouette of the entire tip resembles a metal pinnacle pine, which looks cold and stiff and straight.
The tip is made of an unknown metal, and the whole has a deep blue color, a bit like the burnt blue used for anti-oxidation of the barrel, but a little deeper than that. It was from the dark blue head that Eric felt the chill come from the head of the spear, and he felt as if he was facing a large piece of ice.
"Is this your weapon?" Eric swallowed a mouthful of saliva, what a good gun! low-key yet gorgeous, tough and heavy, but sharp, full of killing intent but not affecting its beauty and delicacy at all, people can't put it down.
"yes! Xiang Ji smiled and said with satisfaction.
