Chapter 86: Overnight Rest
Chapter 86: Overnight Rest
Zhao Changping was still preparing to witness Xiao Yus battle prowess, as he would be fighting against a late stage first-order monster with only his middle-stage first order strength. But when he saw the scene before him, he almost couldnt believe his eyes.
Damn, are you even human?! Zhao Changping exclaimed dramatically. You can use this move to defeat all the monsters without us even lifting a finger!
Its not that simple, Xiao Yu replied, Using it once consumes 60% of my spiritual power, and its success rate is not very high. Its use depends heavily on our luck. Xiao Yu didnt expect to actually kill that late stage first order monster with just one move. Enough talk, lets kill the rest!
When Zhao Changping learned that each use of the skill would consume a large portion of Xiao Yus mental energy and had a success rate limitation, he felt slightly relieved. But even so, this was still an incredible move that allowed him to kill a tough first-stage late monster without it making a single move.
kill!
Zhao Changping swiftly led the charge, accompanied by two seasoned first-order experts, who dashed forward with their weapons held high. In one swift motion, Zhao Changping soared into the air, wielding his sword and unleashing a barrage of lightning bolts that struck the monsters like venomous serpents, reducing them to ashes. With his left hand, he hurled a lightning ball that exploded with a brilliant burst of thunder, illuminating the dark night with the golden glow of a thousand dancing snakes. Dozens of monsters fell to their demise in the wake of his attack.
The two first-order warriors were no less ferocious, carving a path through the monsters with their razor-sharp weapons, drenched in blood and fearless like valiant warriors.
Upon landing, Zhao Changping sprang up again, thrusting his long sword into the heart of one monster and, with a single fluid motion, slicing through the neck of another. His sword glimmered with a dazzling brilliance as he expertly dispatched wave after wave of monsters, leaving no nearby enemy standing. Within moments, he had vanquished five to six monsters and even engaged in a fierce battle with a first-order monster, whom he ultimately overpowered with his lightning mastery skill and his unparalleled combat skills.
Han Kexins face showed a hint of surprise as she praised, This Zhao Changping is really skilled. Although not as good as Xiao Yu, he is still quite impressive.
Without much hesitation, she charged forward alongside the other three. A group of monsters immediately swarmed towards them, but Han Kexins whip transformed into a hundred phantom images that either split the monsters in half or dismembered them. The blood sprayed from the monsters was absorbed by Han Kexin as the ground quickly filled with mutilated bodies, with limbs, heads, and organs scattered everywhere.
Han Kexin was also a talented fighter. Since acquiring the whip as her weapon, she had become increasingly proficient and now could unleash the pinnacle of her skills.
Not to be outdone, Wang Chao, Jin Shi, Jiang Xiaowen, Yun Yun, and the others also joined the fight without any hesitation. The monsters were caught off guard by the sudden attack, and the group of eight first-order warriors, including Xiao Yu and Zhao Changping with his three skilled subordinates, advanced like an unstoppable force, with six of them possessing powerful innate abilities. Together, they broke through the enemy lines like a hot knife through butter.
Lets also charge!
Zhao Changpings elite team and the surviving warriors from the camp all joined the fray.
Among them, a frail, delicate, and beautiful figure stood outChen Shuang. She appeared just as fragile as before, as if a strong gust of wind could easily knock her over. However, she carried more than a dozen long spears on her back, and, upon rushing towards the enemy, she slowly raised her arms.
An invisible force pulled out the spears from her back one by one, suspending them in mid-air. Chenshuang pushed her slender white hands forward, and the spears were launched into the swarm of monsters in unison. One of the elemntary monsters couldnt evade them all, and was turned into a hedgehog on the spot.
At present, Chen Shuang had reached the peak of the elementary level, and her exceptional talent made her the most valued member of the elite team formed by Zhao Changping. It was Xiao Yus recommendation that initially brought this talented individual to Zhao Changpings attention. However, Xiao Yu had no idea that Chen Shuang possessed such extraordinary abilities; he had merely recommended the cautious and clever Chenfeng at the time. As the saying goes, one intends to plant flowers but ends up with no blooms, while unintentionally planting willows leads to shade.
Chen Shuangs innate skill was Telekinesis enabling her to move objects with her mind. She moved her hands back, and the dozens of long spears that had pierced the monsters body were pulled out and all stabbed another monster.
Since the first-order experts had suppressed the first-order monsters, the group of other monsters had no leaders and they scattered in all directions. The humans were mercilessly attacking and devouring them in batches, reducing them to pieces.
Yunyun chose not to engage in close combat with the monsters, instead staying at the back of the group and occasionally releasing arrows, almost always hitting their target and killing one monster with each shot. However, not long after, she pulled back her bone bow and condensed a bone arrow on the string, aiming at a first-order monster that was being suppressed and retreating by the half-abomination. With a sudden release of her hand, the arrow shot out, wrapped in flames, and hit the monsters fatal spot, killing it instantly with no chance to defend or dodge.
After absorbing the essence, Yunyun advanced!
Xiao Yu wielded his four-foot-long luminous beast blade, and the low stage first-order monster facing him retreated step by step. In just over ten moves, he severed both of its arms and made it lose its fighting power. Xiao Yu kicked it out, and the cook, Sun Dazhu, rushed up and finished it off with a single blow. Thats how he advanced as well.
As several first-order monsters were killed, the monsters realized that the situation was not good and began to flee. As more and more monsters fled, the morale of the group grew stronger. Finally, when Zhao Changping killed the last first-order monster, the monsters were completely defeated.
The battle turned out to be much easier than anticipated, and it was fought beautifully.
Compared to the previous night, there were fewer monsters in the camp and the surrounding areas. After successfully capturing the camp, a good number of monsters dispersed after eating and drinking. Additionally, the group approached slowly and carefully, without alerting all the monsters at once, allowing them to fight effectively and easily.
Three more first-order warriors joined the team, namely Sun Dazhu, Yunyun, and a member of Zhao Changpings subordinates.
Sun Dazhu, the vice captain of the Bears, was a warrior with physical body enhancement talent. After reaching the first order, his physical strength became incredibly astonishing, and his endurance and physical strength surpassed those of any other first-order warrior. He could even cut himself, and the bleeding and scabbing would stop in about ten seconds, demonstrating his unmatched recovery speed compared to other types of warriors.
After reaching the first order, Yunyuns innate skill evolved into Berserk fire elemental blessing! which makes the arrows she fires explode with astonishing power.
They had killed more than six to seven hundred monsters, and the ground was littered with various monster corpses. The pungent smell of blood made everyone feel nauseous.
In fact, on average, not many items drop from each first-order monster, but when you add up all the loot left behind by the monsters, it becomes very abundant. Today, combined with last night, they obtained more than forty items in total, as well as a large number of soul gems, which were distributed among the two teams of Xiao Yu and Zhao Changping. Xiao Yus team was slightly stronger and contributed more in this battle, so they received over 60% of the loot, and all the equipment was given to the members of the three teams. Xiao Yu had a ring that automatically absorbed life force and continuously released the Minor Healing spell, so he didnt receive even the slightest injury in this battle.
There werent many valuable items among the loot, so he just picked a random one. It was a magic ring dropped by the six-eyed monster, killed by his Instant Disintegration ability.
Ring of Paralysis a white high grade magic item, can release the second-rank spell Paralysis.
This item was incredibly potent. In battle, one could suddenly use its paralysis technique, rendering the opponents body motionless. Its impact would surely catch the enemy off guard.
Perhaps due to the prevalence of first-order monsters, mostly at the elite level, their drops were not abundant. The paralysis ring proved to be the most practical item among all the loot.
Xiao Yu instructed his team to gather all the monster corpses outside the camp and pile them up. Some of the monster body materials could serve as alchemical ingredients, so he collected all that could be salvaged, and then tossed out the mutated slime. This would be a great feast for the slime, allowing it to dine heartily tonight!
Zhao Changping had collected all the weapons left in the camp, and while all the meat and food had been consumed, there were still plenty of fruits remaining. In contrast, the packaged and canned foods brought by Xiao Yu and his team remained untouched.
There are still a few houses left that can accommodate people, and some temporary tents can be set up overnight, Zhao Changping instructed his men to search the camp. However, the camp has been severely damaged, and nearby settlements are likely to be unsafe. So whether were ready or not, we have no other choice but to set out and attack the edge of the forest!
Xiao Yu had no intention of staying in the camp for long, so he responded nonchalantly, Thats fine.
Wang Chao couldnt help but yell, Hurry up and give me a place to sleep, fatty is almost exhausted!
Zhao Changping and Xiao Yu instructed their subordinates to retrieve spare tents, tarpaulins, and other materials to set up some temporary shelters. Xiao Yus tent was pitched in the northwest corner. Although it was small, he slept alone, and the space was more than sufficient.
As Xiao Yu lay in his tent, he closed his eyes and allowed his body to rest. He knew that the next day would bring forth greater challenges as he ventured into the mountain area at the edge of the forest. The dangers ahead were more difficult and perilous than what they had faced before.
In the dead of night, the only sounds that could be heard were the faint footsteps of the patrol guards Zhao Changping had assigned to keep watch. Apart from that, the silence was only broken by the occasional chirping of insects. The stillness of the surroundings was almost eerie.
Suddenly, Xiao Yus tent flap was gently pulled open, and a shadowy figure slipped inside. The intruder moved cautiously, making no sound as they approached him. Startled awake, Xiao Yus reflexes kicked in, and he reached for the blade at his side. With a flash of cyan light, the tip of the weapon was pressed against the figures neck. However, when he recognized the persons face, he lowered his weapon and whispered, What are you doing here?
Damn, still so alert even while asleep, just like a wild animal.
Han Kexin muttered, gently stroking the skin on her neck that had been pierced. The wound instantly healed, and she crawled on her knees into the tent and glanced outside before closing the tent flap. Then she pounced on Xiao Yu, wrapping her arms around his neck and giving him a passionate kiss.
Xiao Yu was somewhat taken aback, Kexin, you are too daring!
Hmph, Im not afraid, why should you be? Han Kexin sat on top of Xiao Yus lap with her shapely buttocks and her sturdy, rounded thighs wrapped around his waist. She immediately removed her blood-stained clothes, revealing her devilish figure and fragrant skin, causing Xiao Yus eyes to momentarily blur. She pounced on him again, To be honest, since yesterday, my mind has been filled with what we did in the cave last night Oh my god, I cant believe Ive become so shameless. I couldnt sleep all night, so I came to find you
With a wry smile, Xiao Yu delicately held Han Kexins slender waist, embracing her as he slowly turned her over. Han Kexin was a rare beauty, her natural charm unmatched. Though he had experienced it before, her delicate body writhed under his strong pressure, causing her to moan in pleasure. Her round hips resembled a full moon, and her waist was as slender as a snake. Her twin peaks, like powdered jade, were enough to drive any man wild.
After their wild encounter yesterday, Han Kexin and Xiao Yu had abandoned all inhibitions.
