Death Bats (Third Update Arrives)
"Wait a minute, we're not strong enough yet. Let's wait for the One-Eyed Dragon's team to arrive before we go in together." The one who spoke was the India team leader.
"One-Eyed Dragon?" Wu Hai's expression changed upon hearing this name.
Having lived in the Ancient God City, Wu Hai had some understanding of some experts at the Quasi-Star Realm.
One-Eyed Dragon is very famous in the Quasi-Star Realm. His name is Chaidefu, a martial artist from Tsarist Russia. It is said that he was a student of Kholov's previous class, from the Siberia Training Camp, and was also the Champion of that Training Camp. Before Kholov advanced to the Quasi-Star Realm, he was already a Quasi-Star Realm expert. At that time, his strength was considered the Number One Below Star Realm in Tsarist Russia.
However, Kholov's situation was abnormal; he suddenly advanced to the Stellar Realm, which is why he surpassed him.
He also has a deputy named Hua Sha, who was the runner-up in that year's Siberia Training Camp. These two are considered top-tier among those in the Quasi-Star Realm. Moreover, the One-Eyed Dragon is ruthless and quick to resort to violence at the slightest provocation. More than a dozen martial artists have died at his hands during this period.
Wu Hai was a little uneasy about having to cooperate with someone like this.
Just then, a burst of laughter rang out. "Hahaha! You bunch of bystanders haven't dared to go in yet, good, you can all follow behind me and cheer later!"
"He's here!" The India team leader pointed in that direction, and a five-man team from Tsarist Russia walked over.
Lin Zhen did not turn around to look at the Tsarist Russia troops first, but instead looked down at the compass in his hand.
Two dark black dots appeared on the compass, representing the color of a strong person in the Quasi-Star Realm.
Looking back at the Tsarist Russia team, Tsarist Russia were five people, two of whom were Quasi-Star Realm experts. One of them was not very tall, but he wore an eye patch, had a very fierce face, and had a head of blond hair that was loose. He was also holding a long knife, and the aura he exuded was stronger than the other Quasi-Star Realm present.
There was also a Mind Power Master by his side, who was also at the Quasi-Star Realm. Lin Zhen felt that the strength of his Mental Power was not much lower than his own.
Lin Zhen didn't recognize either of these two people. What Lin Zhen recognized were the three followers behind them, who turned out to be the Tsardom of Russia Three Warriors from the God of War Arena!
Kip, Lancelot, Adolf!
These three were eliminated by Lin Zhen in the Preliminary Round of the God of War Arena. Now, more than three months later, all three have reached the peak of level nine, and it seems that they are not far from advancing to the Quasi-Star Realm.
As soon as this team appeared, they immediately outshone the other teams here. The India team leader went over and greeted the One-Eyed Dragon.
The One-Eyed Dragon grunted a few times in agreement, then looked around at the surrounding teams. "You all managed to come here Ketu heard about the Sacred Artifact. I've heard about it too, but I'm not in a hurry. Not just anyone can get their hands on Sacred Artifact. As expected, none of you have succeeded. You'll have to watch me here."
The teams were mocked by the One-Eyed Dragon, and their expressions were not good. At this moment Qin Huashang couldn't help but speak up, "Mr. Chaidefu, since you are so powerful, then you can go in as your team, and we won't follow."
A fierce glint flashed in the one-eyed man One-Eyed Dragon Chaidefu. He looked at Qin Huashang, initially showing surprise, then grinned maliciously, "Woman from Huaxia, do you know who you're talking to?"
"And you, can't you hear me?" Qin Huashang was also a bold and daring person, not afraid of the One-Eyed Dragon.
"Hehe, I'll let this slide for now, since you're a pretty woman. But I doubt your captain will agree. My team is about to enter the Tyrant Dragon Beast's lair with the India team. Anyone willing to come with me will get a piece of the pie. If not, they're my enemies. I'll kill the Tyrannosaurus itself!"
As he spoke, Chaidefu looked at the European Union delegation and asked, "Are you planning to go in?"
The European Union team also recognized Chaidefu, and the team leader, clearly intimidated by him, quickly nodded, "We're willing to go in with you."
Chaidefu nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the African Union team. "And you?"
The members of the African Union team exchanged glances, knowing that they had no choice but to agree at this point. Chaidefu was a man who could turn on them in an instant, so it was best not to offend him and they nodded in agreement.
"Haha, very good. Now it's just a matter of you. Whether the Huaxia team is willing to be my enemy or my teammate is up to you."
After Chaidefu finished speaking, the Mind Power Master Hua Sha behind him also took a step forward. The two Quasi-Star Realm stood side by side, exuding a very obvious sense of threat.
Wu Hai was at a loss. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way. Helplessly, he nodded and said, "Alright, we'll join."
"Very good, that's the Xuan Ze a smart person should make. In that case, I'll assign tasks. Our team will be in the middle, and the India team will lead the way. I'll be responsible for supporting you. The European Union team will be on the left, African Union team will be on the right. You'll be responsible for defending against attacks from the left and right. Finally, the Huaxia team will be responsible for covering the rear. Is that alright?"
India's team was basically a vassal of Tsarist Russia, so there was no objection. The African Union and the European Union also had no objection. As for the Huaxia team covering the rear, it seemed that there was not much danger. So Wu Hai agreed.
"Alright, let's set off now."
Chaidefu quickly organized the group, and the group of twenty-five people began to enter the Tyrant Dragon Beast's lair.
It was midday, and the Tyrant Dragon Beast were resting inside the cave. Upon entering the cave, they immediately felt a chilling wind and smelled a strong stench of blood.
After walking about fifty meters, the light became increasingly dim.
"Watch out for what's above you!"
A India War God shouted, and suddenly countless giant bats flew in from all around!
Each bat, with its wingspan nearly three meters, had a rat-like head that looked even bigger than a pig's head, and its open mouth was full of sharp fangs. They swarmed towards the group in a massive attack.
"Hold your positions and attack!"
Chaidefu's group was in the very center, so they received the least amount of attacks, unlike the other groups.
The India team was the first to suffer, surrounded by swarms of bats. Although the Quasi-Star Realm and several other War God fought back with all their might, these bats were at least A-Rank and incredibly strong. After one War God killed several bats in a row, he was suddenly grabbed by the shoulder by a bat and was lifted into the air.
The War God still managed to kill a few bats in mid-air, but was then surrounded by a swarm of bats and torn to pieces with a few claws! He became the first to fall.
Wu Hai's side didn't initially face much pressure, but after the death of the first India War God, the India dared not linger and quickened their pace, causing the group to venture deeper into the territory, which immediately increased the pressure on those behind them.
"An Ming, you're Mind Power Master, use your Flying Sword to support us. Go wherever there's danger!"
Lin Zhen stood in the center of the five people, wielding his Flying Sword. His main support point was Qin Huashang, while he also took care of the other three. His speed was neither too fast nor too slow, which was very much in line with his status as Gold-level Mind Master.
At that moment, another scream came from the left. Yet another EU War God was grabbed and dragged away by the bats, and was surrounded and attacked by the bats. He was torn to pieces in a few moments.
Then another African Union War God was killed on the right. This person was even a Mind Power Master. He was flying in the air trying to escape, but was chased by more than a dozen bats. In the end, he fell down and was basically just a skeleton.
"Damn! These bats are ruthless. How can there be so many things in the Tyrannosaurus Cave? There are even quite a few near-S-rank ones."
"We don't know yet. Bats aren't considered strong in this area, but they have a lot of them. However, Tyrannosaurus doesn't eat such relatively small prey, so these creatures gather here."
The battle intensified, and with the support of two Tsarist Russia Quasi-Star Realm, the India were finally close to breaking out of the bat-infested region.
Just as the entire team was about to rush forward, Zhang Zhen finally encountered danger.
Originally, Luo Fei and Zhang Zhen were quite close and could rely on each other, but when Luo Fei saw that Lin Zhen was paying more attention to Qin Huashang, he unconsciously moved closer to Qin Huashang, leaving Zhang Zhen somewhat unattended.
Seeing that they were surrounded by bats and it was getting late, Zhang Zhen suddenly pulled Luo Fei towards him, using Luo Fei as a human shield.
Luo Fei was caught off guard and torn to pieces by several bats. Zhang Zhen, on the other hand, took the opportunity to finally escape the area infested with bats. These creatures seemed to have a sense of territory and wouldn't stray too far from their lair.
Zhang Zhen showed no remorse for harming Luo Fei. When Wu Hai looked at him, he argued, "Captain, it was either him or me. I had no Xuan Ze."
Wu Hai didn't say much. They had seen too many people die in the wild, especially at the War God or even Quasi-Star Realm level. Everyone's life was extremely precious, and no one wanted to die. Such things were not uncommon.
Lin Zhen remained unmoved. In terms of the sheer amount of carnage he had witnessed, everyone present combined couldn't even match a fraction of Lin Zhen experience. What he was focused on was what exactly he could find in this Tyrannosaurus Rex's Nest.
Having just arrived here, Lin Zhen was already facing numerous dangers. He knew that the road ahead would not be easy, and he didn't know how many of the twenty-odd people would survive.
Beyond the bat-infested area, the cave ahead remained eerie, emanating a pungent, fishy stench that caused Qin Huashang to frown slightly. "Why does it smell so fishy?"
"The smell of blood, lots of blood!" Lin Zhen replied.
"Wow! So many Bone!"
Someone ahead said something, and after turning the corner, a huge pile of white bones came into view.
Describing it as a pile of bones is not quite right; it should be called a mountain of bones, with countless bones of various dragons and beasts piled up here, and even some human bones.
Some of the bones were still relatively fresh, covered in blood and flesh, and emanating a strong smell of blood.
"Everyone be careful! We might be entering the territory where Tyrannosaurus lives."
The India in front was still shouting, but before he could finish, a rustling sound suddenly came from all around.
"Snakes! So many snakes!"
Beneath the skeletons, swarms of venomous snakes emerged. These snakes were all quite large, each at least seven or eight meters long, some even ten or twenty meters long, writhing and surging together. Their countless enormous triangular heads and fiery red tongues were enough to send chills down one's spine.
