Quick, Fetch the Buddha!
"Sir, wait..."
At this moment, the newest member at the back of the line, a charming girl with black fox ears, timidly raised her hand, her expression still somewhat confused.
"Can you tell me what we're going to do this time?"
Du Qiangwei rubbed her temples, then stood up and pulled the alluring young woman to her side.
What did the person who hired you say?
"The guy wearing sunglasses claimed to be a talent scout and promised he had resources and influence."
"He invited me to join the team and shoot some short military-themed videos. If I did well, I could apply to the Beijing Film Academy Shanghai Theatre Academy the Shanghai Theatre Academy after leaving the military for further studies..."
"It's probably that bastard Ajie again. He'll say anything to lure you all in!"
The girl named Ali was somewhat confused about her current situation, but having been escorted by the military and transported by military aircraft along the way, she naturally understood that she had come into contact with national secrets.
Therefore, she wasn't really scared; on the contrary, she was mostly curious. She even took out her phone to take some pictures as souvenirs so she could brag about them during her live stream later.
"Don't worry, we were recruited here because we are all Super Soldier with the Divine River Gene, and the country needs us now!"
Rui Mengmeng, who has always been both politically correct and professionally competent, immediately stood up, patted her chest, and expressed a strong sense of pride in her words.
"Huh? I'm just a small-time streamer, nothing special. At most, I can get a lot of tips from viewers. You must have made a mistake!"
Upon hearing words like "conscription" and "soldier," which are synonymous with trouble and danger, the little fox clearly backed down, shaking its head with a dry laugh.
After all, with a commoner's mindset, Ali doesn't have any grand ambitions; making money through live streaming is the most important thing.
"Don't worry, it's not a dangerous mission. It's just a trip to Flower Fruit Mountain to observe the monkeys in a civilized manner..."
"If you like, you can make short travel videos. If your skills are good, I can recommend you to some overseas live streaming and video platforms. Ajie doesn't have connections, but I do..."
Kevin smiled and gently pushed Rui Mengmeng, who was eager to preach the spirit of dedication to Ali, down, and then stepped forward to persuade her in a very gentle tone.
As they spoke, to strengthen his persuasiveness, the man directly contacted Tony and Yuriko Takagi. Through a shockingly overkill operation, seven or eight platforms rushed to send out several contracts.
Moreover, Ali glanced at them and was shocked to find that the contents of these contracts were essentially charity work, giving all the profits to the streamers, making her conscience questionable.
"In addition, Ajie will find you a dedicated agent, and they will be responsible for all your future exposure and image management."
"Work hard and follow us, and you'll have bread and milk. As long as you have a good appetite, you won't have trouble eating!"
Kevin was kind and gentle, like a benevolent elder. He bombarded the girl with a series of sweet words that even Ali wouldn't dare to dream of, leaving her completely bewildered. She could only subconsciously nod and sign the papers.
"Chuangzi, I feel like the instructor's acting a bit strange today?"
"Xin Zhao, something's really wrong! Could he be planning something?"
Zhao Xin and Liu Chuang were whispering and chuckling when Du Qiangwei, who heard the commotion, slapped each of them, interrupting their discussion with a look of disgust.
"Survey my ass! You two are brainless. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. Be careful if the instructor finds out, you'll be in big trouble!"
As Dukao's daughter, Rose naturally understood Ali's position; she was clearly bait to lure the one from Flower Fruit Mountain.
Kevin's move was naturally to establish a good relationship in advance, so as to reduce the time needed to get along with that demon king.
That being said, our instructor is too shrewd, isn't he? Before it even started, he was already building relationships and setting traps. And I really don't know where he got the information; his intelligence network is terrifyingly deep.
Kevin smiled elegantly at Du Qiangwei's cold snort, showing no shame for undermining the country's interests. After all, hadn't he given Ajie the opportunity to act as his agent? It was a win-win situation for all three parties.
Moreover, the advantage of acting in advance is that this little fox is still unaware of her own importance and is easy to bribe. After the trip to Flower Fruit Mountain, it will not be so easy to use her to trap the Victorious Fighting Buddha.
With Ali's doubts dispelled, the girl, a former broadcaster, quickly integrated with everyone thanks to her excellent social skills, enlivening the atmosphere on the Hyperion.
When it comes to areas like cosmetics and clothing coordination, even women like Mei and Rose couldn't help but ask for professional advice.
Just as everyone was still engrossed in their conversation, the Hyperion hovered above a range of mountains, but all they could see was an ordinary landscape.
Kevin, unsurprised, turned his chair and gestured for Du Qiangwei to complete the final step.
In fact, places like Kunlun Wonderland, Land of Green Hills, and Flower Fruit Mountain, even if they exist, are all concealed by spatial barriers. Du Qiangwei, who possesses the Space-Time Gene, naturally knows the "code" to enter.
As Du Qiangwei pulled out the virtual control keyboard and typed commands in mid-air, Spatial Rift appeared in front of her, sucking the Hyperion into it.
"What kind of monster are you, trespassing into this forbidden area? Get down here!"
Just as the Floating Battleship with Optical Camouflage activated, passed through the Space Wormhole, a sharp, cold laugh echoed through the air, followed by a piercing explosion as a massive black-gold rod stabbed straight at the Hyperion.
Kevin narrowed his eyes, curled his right hand forward, and Spatial Rift immediately formed. Flame Greatsword appeared outside the ship, igniting the air and sweeping across.
Amidst the ear-piercing metallic clang, the space violently trembled, and a visible shockwave instantly shattered the three layers of shields surrounding the Hyperion.
"Old veterans of the Xiong Bing Lian, go first! This is a temporary test. If you can't last ten minutes, don't bother riding the floating warship, crawl back on your backs!"
The arrogant master of this secret realm suddenly made a move, which displeased Kevin slightly. He then opened Spatial Rift and threw the seven members of the Xiong Bing Lian down into it.
Anyway, the monkey below is an old acquaintance of Dukao's, so having him help train the troops was part of the plan.
Moreover, regardless of whether these little guys in the Xiong Bing Lian complete the trials or not, he can always find someone to vent his anger on, so why not?
The man kicked Liu Chuang, who was lagging behind, into Spatial Rift, a satisfied smile on his face, revealing his utterly cunning nature.
"Yamete! I'm afraid of heights! Anyone want to help me out, bro?!"
A pitiful scream echoed in the air. The thug leader, who was being buffeted by the cold wind, watched as the distance between the ground and his cheek shrank frantically, on the verge of tears.
Why provoke him for no reason? It's clearly a case of settling a personal score. I've never seen anyone so petty!
Chapter 731, Section 765: Quickly invite the Buddha!
"Target: Sun Wukong, the Victorious Fighting Buddha, Beast Body life, 1400 years old! Wielding Dark Alloy Staff! Able to automatically expand, contract, and change size and weight!"
"As Old Du said, their strength Main God Level! They are definitely not something we can handle. All units, take note: focus on containment and cover the landing of the Hyperion. Don't be reckless!"
"Possible abilities: clone ability, Seventy-two Transformations, Fiery Golden Eyes!"
"Also, the database has been updated with a new addition: Demon Calamity is wreaking havoc in the Central Plains!"
Du Qiangwei immediately deployed her mechanical wings, teleporting hundreds of meters across the air to hide behind the mountain, where she began sharing information with her teammates and establishing battlefield visibility.
At this moment, a monkey with a hairy face, wearing a black Dark Alloy Armor and two long tassels on its head, squatted on a blue stone by the stream, carrying Golden Cudgel on its shoulder, not even looking around, and grinned coldly.
"Is this really Monkey Brother? Rose, can we negotiate? I've loved watching Journey to the West since I was a kid, so shouldn't Sun Wukong be on our side?"
At this moment, Ge Xiaolun, who was hiding behind a tree with Cheng Yaowen, couldn't help but press the communicator and exclaim, his expression somewhat excited.
"Negotiation? Sure, you go up and give it a try..."
Du Qiangwei responded coldly, leaning against the rock and rolling her eyes.
However, as soon as the words left his mouth, Ge Xiaolun, who believed them, immediately shouldered his greatsword, walked towards the blue stone, and waved to greet it.
"Monkey..."
"Bang!"
But as soon as he opened his mouth, the wind howled, and the Golden Cudgel slashed horizontally. Ge Xiaolun hurriedly raised his heavy sword to block, but it was as if he had been hit by a high-speed train. Like a cannonball, he was shot through the mountain behind him.
Just because I told you to go, you idiot!
Seeing this, Du Qiangwei cursed under her breath in anger. When she noticed that the Victorious Fighting Buddha had already gotten up and was leaping towards Ge Xiaolun's landing point, she disregarded her previous order to restrain him and immediately changed her instructions.
"Qilin, suppress the enemy with firepower! Keep your distance!"
"Yao Wen, Chuangzi, hold them off! Zhao Xin, flank them Mengmeng, protect the sniper! I need to get that idiot back!"
After a series of battles and being bombarded with various nutrients, although their strength was still stuck at the level of a semi-lord, their teamwork had become quite seamless.
With the captain's instructions, Qilin fired first, and the Godslayer bullet hit the high-speed target, causing Sun Wukong to stagger and retreat slightly.
Cheng Yaowen and Liu Chuang, the two human shields, seized the opportunity and stepped forward together to intercept.
However, before they could even get close, Sun Wukong stomped his foot and exerted force, striking left and right with his Golden Cudgel, instantly sending the two Super Soldier flying seventy or eighty meters away, kicking up dust all along the way.
"Holy crap, that's insane!"
Zhao Xin, who was originally crouching in the bushes, preparing to sneak up and ambush his two best buddies as usual, was so shocked by their miserable state that his jaw nearly dislocated. After swallowing hard, his hands even started to tremble.
"Yao Wen, Chuangzi, how are you? Should we send Mengmeng to help?"
The sniper fired another shot, hitting Sun Wukong precisely in the forehead, and then spoke urgently into the walkie-talkie.
"Don't worry Qilin, your brother can handle it!"
"Even if you can't hold on, you have to!"
The two men who had climbed out of the cone-shaped pit saw the monkey give them a disdainful look before slowly walking toward the direction where Ge Xiaolun had fallen. They supported each other, roared, and charged forward.
As he ran, Cheng Yaowen curled his left fingers and clenched his fist. The soil around Sun Wukong surged and instantly transformed into a giant hand that reached for the sky, gripping the target in the center.
Five Finger Mountain? Sun Wukong stared at the somewhat resembling mountain rock pressing down hard, and in his daze, he actually forgot to dodge.
As the fingers closed, the Victorious Fighting Buddha in black armor and long tassels was sealed in deep darkness.
"Phew! So what if he's the Battle Saint Buddha? I'm still a prince!"
Having landed a successful blow, Cheng Yaowen bent down and pressed his knees against the ground. Having suppressed such a formidable enemy, he couldn't help but show a smug expression and utter a few words of self-praise.
"Wow, Jiawen! You really know how to train monkeys!"
"The prince is mighty!"
Liu Chuang, who followed closely behind, and Zhao Xin, who jumped out of the bushes, couldn't help but show their delight.
"Come back quickly! The energy fluctuations inside are increasing exponentially!"
Sniper Qilin was the first to sense the terrifying atmosphere emanating from "Five Finger Mountain," and immediately grabbed her earpiece and shouted a warning.
The livestock, bombarded seventy or eighty times a day, heard the dull cracking sound of the earth and immediately realized something was wrong, hurriedly retreating.
However, before the three could find cover, a rock formation more than ten meters high collapsed, and the sound of boulders flying through the air was deafening.
"You overestimate yourself! Get lost!"
Like a rumbling thunder, a low, menacing roar came, and the three figures who were a beat too slow became the prime targets of the falling rocks.
After enduring this "rain of stones," the three who had just been celebrating their victory were all left with broken bones and torn muscles, and their bodies had become noticeably heavier.
After such devastation, the three brothers lay on the ground groaning, relying solely on their own repair and slow healing. Now, they didn't even have the strength to move.
The previous "Five Finger Mountain" seemed to have stirred up some unpleasant memories for Sun Wukong. Golden light appeared in the eyes of the Victorious Fighting Buddha, and after scanning the area, a look of disgust appeared on his face as he focused on Liu Chuang, the gang leader lying in front of him.
Old Du and his ilk are getting worse and worse. They even send these scoundrels to Old Sun, Old Sun. Do they really think I don't kill?!
The mythical figure before them turned around and casually walked toward the three fallen men, his aura of solemnity almost suffocating the unfortunate souls.
"I'll fight you to the death!"
Rui Mengmeng burst out of the dense forest, her greatsword dragging on the ground to gather power, before she soared into the air and danced in a circle, the dark arc of light reminiscent of Murata Himeko wielding the Xuanyuan Sword.
"Bang!"
With just one powerful blow, Rui Mengmeng was sent flying backward, crashing into seven or eight ancient trees before her momentum slowed.
"Don't even think about getting past me!"
The only surviving sniper, Qilin, ran and fired, trying to distract Sun Wukong and buy him time.
However, the Victorious Fighting Buddha clenched his left thumb and forefinger together and actually caught the first Godslayer bullet.
He tilted his head a few inches to the side and leaned his shoulders forward, successfully dodging the second and third bullets, leaving the recently arrogant Super Soldier utterly astonished.
"Puff!"
Sun Wukong seemed to have grown tired of this cat-and-mouse game. With a flick of his finger, the Godslayer bullet shot out, accurately hitting the fast-moving Qilin and piercing through the girl's shoulder blade.
This caused her to groan and fall to the ground, unable to pick up the sniper rifle in her hand.
"Bring on whatever other tricks you have, while I still have patience..."
Sun Wukong impatiently stuck his Golden Cudgel into the ground, lifted Liu Chuang with one hand, and slightly tightened his fingers.
At this moment, three Spatial Rift quietly appeared behind the Battle Saint Buddha, and dozens of flying knives silently pierced the monster's limbs.
But when Sun Wukong grinned and let out a cold laugh, a transparent wave of energy rippled outwards, shattering dozens of flying knives into pieces.
"Old Sun, Indestructible Body!"
With a cold snort, the monkey swung his left hand forward, and Liu Chuang, like a cannonball, directly smashed into Du Qiangwei and Ge Xiaolun, who happened to be passing through the Spatial Rift.
Amidst the billowing dust, the Victorious Fighting Buddha shouldered his Golden Cudgel, stepped over the Affliction Xiong Bing Lian and their comrades, and looked up at the gradually revealing Floating Battleship, his expression arrogant.
