Chapter 146 - 114: Burning the Villain! Encounter Battle!
“Brother Cheng, why haven’t we run into any mutants yet?”
Far from the beach, the group of ten headed inland.
Having walked for half a day without encountering a single person, all they saw was an open wilderness and the looming forest in the distance.
The Chicken, clearly getting impatient, asked.
Chen Zixiong suddenly said, “Before entering Radiation Island, I looked up some intel. In this world, you must never enter places like forests.”
“Why?” The Chicken asked, puzzled.
Chen Zixiong said smugly, “Because the forest trees in this world have also mutated due to nuclear rain radiation.”
“They have turned into carnivorous creatures like man-eating flowers, assaulting any creature that comes close.”
“I’ve seen videos of it, thick layers of vines surging towards a person, able to swallow a whole person in one bite, it’s terrifying.”
For the trip to Radiation Island, he was well-prepared.
He originally planned to lead the team into Radiation Island, but was unexpectedly beaten to it by Zheng Cheng.
Therefore, he intended to prove his worth in the team, making others more convinced of him.
If Zheng Cheng were to make any mistakes, wouldn’t he be able to usurp his position?
Zheng Cheng suddenly raised his hand, “Wait a minute, there’s movement ahead!”
Ten people stopped and looked into the distance.
There seems to be a town there, rundown on the outside, with footprints scattered all over the ground.
The wild wind passed by, stirring up a cloud of dust in the town.
Chen Zixiong took out a telescope to inspect and said confusedly, “There’s no one there. Zheng Cheng, did you see it wrong?”
Zheng Cheng shook his head, “I couldn’t be wrong. There are mutants hiding in that town, waiting to ambush us!”
“An ambush?”
From his Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique, he could clearly see numerous red dots crowded inside the nearby town.
They were hiding in the buildings, waiting for their arrival.
While Chen Zixiong and others might not understand Zheng Cheng’s scouting ability, Yao Zhixue and the others knew it all too well and immediately grew wary.
Chen Zixiong hesitated and asked, “How are you so sure? What if there’s no one…”
Zheng Cheng patted his shoulder, “I have a scouting ability that can track the whereabouts of any creatures within a 800-meter radius!”
His Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique had been upgraded to LV4, increasing his detection range up to 800 meters!
“Let’s move, find a way to push them out of that town.”
“Otherwise…”
“Burn it!”
Chen Zixiong immediately suggested, “Use fire to smoke them out!”
“I just observed with the telescope—this town, being near the sea, most of its structures are made of wood and are extremely flammable.”
“Good idea!”
Zheng Cheng’s eyes sparkled slightly. It seemed that Chen Zixiong had some insight after all.
“Yang Lie!” Chen Zixiong continued, “Our team’s Yang Lie is a six-star Flame Mage, and his second skill is the Firewall Technique.”
“Use fire to drive them out!”
“Okay!”
Zheng Cheng decisively said, “We will use fire. Everyone else, split up and get ready to exterminate the mutants.”
“Yes!”
“Chaoyu!” Zheng Cheng said, “Release your soul beast to carry Yang Lie to set the fire. The other soul beasts will charge in from the sides and drive out those mutants.”
“No problem.”
Song Chaoyu agreed, and a myriad of black shadows appeared on his body.
Soon he conjured eight huge pythons, each about ten meters long, on the spot.
The leader was the Fishman boss soul beast!
Song Chaoyu’s ability to summon soul beasts ensures that as long the soul power of the beast hasn’t dissipated, it can continue to exist!
“Action!”
At ccommand, one of the python soul beasts slithered over, lifting Yang Lie and went toward the town.
When he was about tens of meters away from the town, he stopped.
He raised his magic wand, and obscure chants began to emanate from his mouth.
Soon, waves of heat began to form in front of him.
In a matter of seconds, a burning firewall, four to five meters high, was formed.
“Go!”
He let out a low cry, pointed his magical wand forward, and the firewall immediately charged towards the town.
With a “bang”, it hit a wooden house, instantly setting it ablaze.
“Ahh!”
“Ahhh!”
Soon, screams began to ring out, and panicked figures rushed out from the midst of the flames.
Some ran toward the distance, while others flopped on the ground, rolling around franticly.
“Mutants!”
Their eyes lit up—as they had suspected, this town was indeed harboring mutants!
Yang Lie repeated his trick, sending out another firewall.
This time, it hit a wooden tower, the tower quickly caught fire, spreading upwards.
More mutants rushed out from inside the tower.
Just as Yang Lie was about to unleash his third wave of Firewall Technique, a series of angry roars finally erupted from within the town.
“Get back here!”
Zheng Cheng shouted, and the giant python soul beast quickly retreated from the town with Yang Lie.
Lying on the back of the giant python soul beast, Yang Lie involuntarily turned back at the shouts, only to start in surprise.
Behind him, a swarm of mutants, all black-skinned and rough-textured, had appeared.
Some of them had three arms; some of them had tendrils growing out of their buttocks; some even had two heads; they were furiously pursuing them.
Simultaneously, they bellowed loudly.
“Die!”
“Die!”
“Die!”
“Drive out the invaders!”
“Eat them!”
“Such beautiful people! And so many women! Hahaha!”
“I want to eat them!”
“Strip them of their clothing! Swallow their flesh strip by strip!”
One by one, inferior people burst out from the small town, each with a fierce expression akin to those of rabid zombies.
“Holy shit…”
The wimp was taken aback: “So this is what the inferior people look like? They’re just like monsters!”
Holding a tower shield as high as a person, Chen Xiao walked in front of everyone and said coldly: “People who have destroyed their own planet, their entire race has mutated.”
“This race is not human at all, they’re monsters!”
“Kill them all!”
“What are they shouting about?”
“Who knows.”
“Here they come!”
“Take action!”
At the command, Chen Xiao, who was closest to the inferior people, just planted the tower shield on the ground, a large burst of blizzard suddenly surged from behind him and slammed into the ground!
“Boom!”
“Rumble !!!”
In an instant, a severe cold storm arrived, and a dense blizzard poured down from the sky, covering thousands of inferior people within.
Among the inferior people, some who were thin or short couldn’t withstand it at all and were blown to the ground.
Even the normal inferior people were blown this way and that.
“Bang!!!”
Moreover, a large amount of snow gathered and under the cover of the blizzard, a giant about ten meters tall appeared!
This was all covered in frost armor, with snow-white hair, looking furious, holding an ice spear in hand, and the waist was wrapped in an armor forged by ice and snow.
“Ice Giant!!!”
Chen Xiao, Cai Shen, Chen Zixiong, and others almost exclaimed at the same time, looking shocked at the giant that appeared in the blizzard.
As the first Different Race to step on the Blue Star, and the powerful Different Race who was the chief culprit for destroying the Seven Kingdoms of the Northern Region, how could they not recognize it?
The giant ice lifted its foot and trampled down heavily.
With a “rumble,” the ground shook, a violent energy of cold ice surged out, instantly freezing more than a dozen inferior people into ice sculptures.
With another foot, they kicked the petrified inferior people into pieces!
Zheng Cheng subconsciously turned his head, looking at Yao Zhixue.
“Have you completed your breakthrough task?”
“Yes.”
Yao Zhixue nodded and said, “This is the second skill I have mastered, Summoning the Ice Giant.”
“Now it’s only LV1, it’s not a real Ice Giant, just a projection.”
“Once the skill improves, perhaps I will be able to summon a real Ice Giant.”
“Incredible!”
Zheng Cheng earnestly admired.
The Ice Giant is a powerful race that can rank in the top 100 among the thousands of races.
Once a member of their race matures, they can automatically step into the Epic Level, with their body size swelling up to more than a hundred meters.
They can even tear dragons apart with their bare hands after they mature!
Also, they have a mastery of ice magic. In snow and ice environments, they have few rivals.
However, the Ice Giants like to stay in the ice and snow world. Otherwise, the Blue Star would have been flattened by the Ice Giants three hundred years ago.
“Hiss ”
“Hiss Hiss !”
On the other side, Song Chaoyu was also pouting her lips and commanding the python spirit beasts to attack.
The python spirit beasts crawled among the inferior people, like tigers among sheep.
They could kill several inferior people by simply opening their mouths.
Chen Zixiong also drew his bow and shot arrows made entirely of wind elements, quite leisurely tearing the inferior people in half.
Others also used their methods to kill this group of inferior people.
Among the inferior people, Liu Siyu wore diamond-shaped shields on both hands, like two short swords rushing into the crowd.
Shield dances upside down, immediately killing several inferior people.
But he was surrounded by the inferior people, and some of them fearlessly rushed up to him.
Ignoring the fact they left themselves wide open, they threw themselves fiercely at him.
They bit and clawed at him, even if their heads were smashed by Liu Siyu, they wanted to bite a piece of meat off his body!
On the other side, the wimp, Chen Xiao, and Zhao Yeping were the same.
All melee Professionists were entangled by this group of inferior people.
Some of them even lay on their bodies, shouting and biting madly as if they were driven crazy!
“Ah !”
“Shit! These inferior people have gone mad!”
He shouted out immediately, trying to retreat in fear.
Joking aside, when had they ever seen such ferocious monsters!
A red light suddenly descended from the sky and fell on him.
The injuries on his body healed at a visibly fast speed, and a surge of power welled up from within his body.
He forcefully shed the two inferior people who were lying on him and backed away unsteadily.
But the inferior people weren’t going to let him go, and several more rushed at him.
Behind the crowd, Lin Jianyue, the scarlet priest, nervously cast a Lifeblood spell and began chanting her second skill, Group Blood Glow Shield!
Drops of scarlet light poured out from everyone’s body, forming a shield on the surface of their body, protecting them.
Seeing that Liu Siyu was about to be knocked down by the inferior people again, a python spirit beast rushed over and knocked several inferior people flying.
Just then, another mysterious wave came from the sky and poured into his body.
At the back of the team, Zheng Cheng held the Bloodthirsty Wand and pointed in Liu Siyu’s direction.
Adrenaline Excitement Technique!
“Buzz… !”
An indescribable strength surged from Liu Siyu’s waist and circulated throughout his body the next instant.
Almost instantly, his breathing accelerated, his pupils dilated, his hands and legs felt incredibly light.
Even his mental processes had become sharper and the movements of these ordinary inferior people seemed incredibly slow in his view.
“What’s going on… with me?”
“But you despicable inferior people, why did you become so slow?”
“Die for me!!!”
