Chou Hai was extremely domineering, completely disregarding Wang Luo and the others.
"I think you're asking for death!"
Yang Shu shouted and patted Little White Dragon's neck.
Little White Dragon understood and instantly vanished from its spot.
Chou Hai's heart lurched, sensing immediate danger. Instinct told him peril was near. He turned, diving into the crowd of thousands behind him, attempting to evade attack. He roared, "Kill them all!"
"Kill!"
Hearing their captain's command,
the thousands of awakened ones behind them swarmed forward without fear. They outnumbered the opponents so severely that a single spit from each of them could drown the other side.
Chou Hai also pushed his way into the center of the crowd, his eyes darting left and right, searching for Yang Shu.
"Damn it, what kind of ability is that?"
"Invisibility or something?"
Chou Hai had never encountered such an ability; space-element abilities were too rare. wap.kanshuwu.net
"A bunch of rotten fish and shrimp!"
Zhou Yiming scoffed, drawing the pig-slaughtering knife from his waist. Golden light enveloped the blade as he charged into the crowd.
Having just joined, he had to make a statement.
The metal element was known for its formidable destructive power and unparalleled sharpness.
Wang Luo observed,
The opponent's move bore some resemblance to his Palm Blade!
However, facing thousands of approaching enemies, Wang Luo could no longer stand aside.
"Horse King, let's do a combo move!"
Wang Luo said to Horse King.
"Hee-haw~~~"
Horse King neighed and nodded. With a wide opening of its mouth, a massive fire wave erupted.
Simultaneously, Wang Luo drew his saber, and a giant wind blade, carrying a gale, slammed into the fire wave.
*Poof-boom~~~*
The already terrifying fire wave surged with even greater ferocity, transforming into over a dozen long tongues of flame that swept towards the charging crowd.
"Quick, water element users, block them!"
Someone's face paled as they roared. The wind fueled the flames; this fire wave was too horrific!
The opponents reacted swiftly. What awakened one survived in the apocalypse without constantly battling zombies?
In an instant, several individuals simultaneously unleashed their water-element abilities, forming colossal water pillars that rushed towards the raging inferno.
*Sizzle-hiss!!!*
Water clashed with fire, and white mist billowed!
But it lasted only a moment before the water pillars were instantly engulfed by flames and swept towards the crowd behind.
A string of screams erupted, miserable and tragic!
The combined attack of two SSS-class individuals was, as expected, devastating!
"Hee-haw~~~"
Horse King was exhilarated, neighing at the sky.
[See that? That's the might of old me!]
Alas, Little White Dragon had not appeared, so Horse King could only neigh at Wang Luo again.
"Alright, one more strike then!"
...
Chou Hai's eyelids twitched. He felt he had provoked someone he shouldn't have. These individuals were all immensely powerful.
Whether it was the one with the pig-slaughtering knife, the one on horseback, or the horse itself, their strength was terrifying!
"Why do they feel as strong as our leader!"
"Holy crap, could it be that they, like our leader, awakened on the first day!"
Chou Hai's scalp tingled.
What kind of rotten luck had he stumbled into, encountering such powerhouses?
And crucially, their levels seemed to match their leader's!
With that thought, Chou Hai prepared to flee!
If he didn't leave now, he might not be able to later.
"Thump!"
Just then, an immense force struck the back of his head, sending Chou Hai tumbling to the ground.
"Who the hell attacked me!"
Chou Hai roared, his head thumping. His first thought was that someone nearby was settling a personal score; such things weren't unheard of.
He touched his head and found it bleeding.
"Captain, it was a hoof!"
Someone saw a white hoof suddenly extend from the air and kick the captain's head.
"A white hoof? Was it that horse?"
Chou Hai instantly understood. His expression shifted wildly. Seeing his subordinates looking somewhat hesitant, he suddenly bellowed, "Everyone charge forward immediately! Use all your abilities and smash them to death!"
"After we succeed, we'll roast those two horses right here!"
By now, many of them hadn't eaten meat in months, even surviving on just one meal a day to conserve supplies. They were all gaunt and pale!
So, upon hearing the promise of meat, their throats literally smoked. Everyone went completely insane and charged towards Horse King.
"Hee-haw~~~"
Horse King was furious.
Damn it, they want to roast me?
How can I stand for this?
It immediately charged into the crowd, unleashing its powerful abilities, vast flames sweeping outwards.
As Chou Hai watched everyone charge recklessly, he melted into the throng and retreated.
"Damn it, at worst, I'll live in seclusion in the mountains, and come out years later when this blows over!"
He knew full well that if he returned empty-handed, his leader would never forgive him, so he had already devised a plan.
But before he could escape,
a snow-white hoof abruptly appeared from the air again, kicking him square in the head.
The immense force made it impossible for him to resist!
"Damn it, this horse is at least my level, and its ability level is probably not lower than mine!"
But when he looked again, he couldn't find any trace of it, enraging him to the point of spitting blood.
*Slash!*
Suddenly, Chou Hai screamed. One of his arms was severed without warning!
Chou Hai was utterly terrified and dared not linger. Stumbling, he fled towards the mountains outside the crowd.
"Captain, the enemy is attacking! How can you run?"
An awakened one grabbed the severed-arm Chou Hai.
Although his condition was horrific, weren't they all in a similarly wretched state?
"Screw you, you motherf***er~~~"
Chou Hai cursed, flung the person aside, and continued running towards the mountains.
But before he could take two steps, his head fell clean off.
"No good, the captain is dead!"
Someone cried out in terror. The remaining resistance in the crowd instantly crumbled, and they began to flee in all directions!
However, only a small fraction managed to escape; the majority were annihilated.
"Space abilities truly live up to their name as the most bizarre and unpredictable!"
Wang Luo exclaimed,
He had been watching Yang Shu's vicinity the entire time, yet even he hadn't noticed how Chou Hai was killed by Little White Dragon!
The uncanny nature of space abilities was truly evident.
"I wonder when the system will reward me with an SSS-class space ability!"
...
With the enemy routed, Yang Shu left only a few survivors to interrogate them for details.
"Changlong City's Dafeng Base?"
Yang Shu frowned. "Shouldn't it be Base One?"
"Our Dafeng Base leader received news that Qian Tai, the second leader of Base One, went to Anluo City to snatch supplies but never returned. According to the leaders' speculation, that guy might have declared himself king, so they sent us to seize supplies!"
