Chapter 196 Night Attack
Swish——
A sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded in the bushes.
The military magic-sealing arrow accurately hit the neck of the fourth-level lizard dragon.
It pierced fiercely along the gap between the scales.
The lizard dragon in the gap had never seen the magic-sealing arrow, and it didn't understand why it was suddenly injured.
But the instinct of the beast still made it react instantly.
It adjusted its body shape while staggering.
It looked around vigilantly.
"Roar~~"
The lizard dragon couldn't find the attacker, so it could only roar angrily.
Another arrow shot.
It pierced the right leg of the lizard dragon, and its body suddenly fell to one side, unable to stand up for a long time.
"It's a bit weak..."
"Fourth-level demon tribe, can't even use energy shields?"
"Maybe we don't have to fight them in hand-to-hand combat, we can just use crossbows to kill them all."
Liang Yuxin said in a relaxed tone.
"I think it's feasible." Guan Shan agreed with Liang Yuxin's proposal and changed his tactics immediately.
"There are bushes behind them. If they run away, it will be troublesome for us to chase them."
"I'll go down and trap them later, and you guys shoot them quickly."
As he said that, Guan Shan jumped up and rushed down from the high ground.
Without any communication, a thick silver thread was connected to his back.
The energy transmission speed is much faster...
It seems that Yuxin didn't slack off during the holiday.
My teammates are more resilient than the others.
Guan Shan thought to himself, and his figure had already landed in the group of lizard dragons.
"【Ice Storm】"
A ball of cold air quickly rotated outward from the position where Guan Shan landed.
In an instant, it froze the joints of the group of lizard dragons, making a "crackling" sound.
Compared with the college competition, Guan Shan's 【Ice Storm】 can be activated instantly.
And it can also control the intensity of the cold air to save superpowers to the greatest extent.
Guan Shan also slowly adjusted his tactics, from a glass cannon with extreme burst to an awakener with both control and burst.
Almost at the same time when Guan Shan controlled the lizard dragon group, several sounds of breaking wind sounded behind him.
Blood flowers bloomed around Guan Shan.
The fourth-level lizard dragon then realized and deployed the energy shield.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Puff——
The Ten Thousand Gods Sword easily pierced the lizard dragon's head.
Class 197 easily wiped out the lizard dragon group here in just one encounter.
Although they had prepared themselves mentally before entering the rift, they still didn't expect that the demon tribe here would be so weak.
"Yang Chao, Qiao Jiang, be alert all around. Others, come and help!"
Guan Shan called his teammates while taking out several special syringes from the equipment bag.
After the lizard dies, the activity of the blood will quickly lose its value, so it must be taken away and preserved immediately to be valuable.
"Guanshan, do you think it's a bit strange?" Liang Yuxin observed the surroundings vigilantly while drawing blood.
"These monsters are not weak anymore. It seems that they have forgotten how to fight."
"Even their instincts have degenerated a bit."
Guan Shan nodded and said, "The way they looked at me just now was not the way monsters look at humans."
"It was more like seeing something strange."
"That feeling was like..."
"A bit confused?"
"I can't explain it."
"It's definitely not the reaction of ordinary monsters."
The more Guan Shan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He couldn't help but urge, "Hurry up! Fill the syringe and we'll retreat."
"Xiao Hui, go get the fourth-level crystal core first. Don't take the other demon pills. It takes too much time."
Qiao Xiao Hui nodded, stopped what she was doing, summoned the red tassel spear, and accurately pierced the lizard dragon's body.
There was no need to confirm it with the naked eye. The spear took out the crystal core like Qiao Xiao Hui's extended arm.
"Retreat."
Guan Shan put the last syringe into his backpack and shouted to everyone.
Everyone in Class 197 quickly left the scene following the direction provided by the command center.
......
Sha-Sha-Sha-
In the depths of the dense forest, a rustling sound of footsteps slowly approached from afar.
A tall and strong adult saber-toothed tiger, smelling the smell, came to the death scene of the lizard dragon group.
"Ah!!"
Seeing the corpse of its own cub, the saber-toothed tiger's eyes suddenly turned red and roared angrily.
A white little hand pressed the saber-toothed tiger's huge head and rubbed it gently.
On the back of the saber-toothed tiger, a young woman wearing a strange battle robe was coldly watching the mess on the ground.
"This group of beasts!"
The woman's voice was soft and cold.
The woman lightly lifted her slender thighs and jumped off the tiger's back.
Landed in the center of the lizard dragon group.
The woman supported the ground with one hand.
The blood remaining in the lizard dragon's body suddenly rose up and exploded into pieces of blood foam in the air.
The blood foam gradually gathered and formed a human figure.
Guan Shan's appearance could be vaguely seen from the figure.
The scene of the lizard dragon's death was replayed again under the demonstration of the blood man.
The woman frowned slightly, raised her palm from the ground, and grasped the blood clot in the air.
She grabbed it with one hand.
The blood mass exploded into pieces of blood mist, flying in the air and spreading.
There seems to be a mysterious force guiding the direction of the blood mist, constantly flying in the direction where Class 197 left.
Soon, the blood mist disappeared into the air.
Guan Shan, who was in the advance base, subconsciously raised his hand and touched the back of his neck.
Just now, he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck.
Ever since he became an ice element awakener, he had almost forgotten what it felt like to be cold.
"What's wrong?" Liang Yuxin noticed something unusual about her teammates and asked with concern.
"It's okay. It's probably an illusion. Maybe I was too nervous after entering the rift."
Guan Shan looked around.
The defenses of the forward base have been built.
Ballistas, city defense guns, watchtowers, and basic defensive formations filled the entire base.
With the strength of the demon clan in the rift, I am afraid that as many as come will die.
Moreover, the fissure passage is right behind the base, allowing you to advance, attack, retreat or defend.
Guan Shan really couldn't think of any other potential dangers.
He simply shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
Everyone in Class 197 sent all the lizard blood they obtained to the Logistics Department, where there were dedicated personnel to count the materials and register their military exploits.
A special needle filled with lizard blood can be exchanged for 200 points of military merit.
When Class 197 patrolled Dawn City, they killed the entire demon patrol team with only 500 points per person.
Just as Li Yunxuan said, the speed at which military merits are earned in the rift is simply unmatched by the outside world.
The night in the ancient rift is almost the same as the night in the outside world.
It's just a little extra quiet.
The forward base is patrolled 24 hours a day, and Class 197 naturally has the task of patrolling at night.
The ones in charge of patrolling on the first night were Guan Shan and Liang Yuxin.
"Guan Shan, I just took a peek at the exchange table. The exchange price for lizard dragon blood is ridiculously expensive."
"If there is no discount, we probably won't be able to exchange it for much after we finish this trip."
Liang Yuxin pouted and whispered.
The silver moonlight illuminated the entire base, and the huge incandescent lamp illuminated the surrounding area clearly.
But Guan Shan always felt that there was a haze in his heart that could not be dissipated.
He didn't even listen to his teammates' words too carefully.
He just nodded mechanically and kept looking around, trying to find the source of that uneasy feeling.
The night was getting late, and the sounds of deep sleep could be heard in the forward base.
Just when Guan Shan thought that the first night after entering the rift would be spent so peacefully.
A sharp siren cut through the quiet night sky.
There was a sudden sound.
Guan Shan's pupils shrank instantly, the hairs all over his body stood on end, and the sense of crisis in his heart reached its peak in an instant.
Sharp, continuous, rapid.
The meaning of this alarm sound...
It's [enemy attack]!
...
