A Gamer's Personal Opinion (9)
Xiao Lan took a deep breath, her heart pounding. As someone who had Mutation her heart, she gained various special abilities. The whole world seemed to slow down, the white mist swirled slowly, and the hostile footsteps became clearer and clearer.
She shouted, her body twisting and her bones creaking. Based on the other person's footsteps and heartbeat, she accurately confirmed their location. Her blood rushed, and her body glowed with a faint red light. She grabbed the person with black markings on their body, kicked them, and used the force to knock them to the ground.
Then Xiao Lan roared and leaped down, her weapon swaying in front of her chest. Her elbow struck the black-striped man's neck, but unfortunately, he reacted quickly and rolled to the side. Xiao Lan's elbow struck the man just below the shoulder, knocking him unconscious but not dead.
Fortunately, Xiao Lan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling the soreness all over her body. This person had obviously just acquired this power and was not yet proficient in using it, which was why Xiao Lan subdued him in one move. This was also thanks to Xiao Lan's background in a martial arts family. Although she could not learn the family's secret technique, the Wave Bust Sway Slash, because her weapon was not big enough, she was still extremely proficient in combat, which allowed her to seize the opponent's weakness.
Just as Xiao Lan was about to finish off the enemy, a roar came from afar. A spaceship with a honeycomb-shaped protective field flew by, bringing a strong wind that dispersed most of the clouds and mist stirred up by Tian Lan. It then landed abruptly, dragging on the ground for more than ten meters before being forcibly brought to a stop.
"Everyone, head towards the spaceship! In the name of my captain, for the Empire!" the captain shouted, running towards the spaceship without stopping. Several people who had been notified beforehand followed suit.
The remaining crew members were stunned for a moment, but those who reacted quickly ran towards the spaceship with the current. Meanwhile, the first mate jumped out and shouted, "You should all know your physical condition. Even if you return to base at top speed, most of you will die on the spaceship."
"Then why not join the Shadow Kingdom? Healthy bodies, immense strength, and lifespans far exceeding those of humans!" the first mate shouted. Just as he was about to say something more, Tian Lan landed from mid-air and kicked the first mate.
"And their inferior status and monster status!" Tian Lan said coldly. In reality, he didn't care much about these things, but every crew member was Game Points. For the sake of Game Points, if they were to die, they should die on the spaceship!
"You're courting death! Submachine Gun Combo!" the first mate roared, his muscles bulging. He slammed his fist on the ground and fired directly at Tian Lan. Tian Lan groaned, her skin turning red and radiating intense heat as she met the attack head-on.
After understanding her own abilities, Tian Lan intentionally strengthened her close combat skills. Although due to time constraints, her skills were only average, the combination of high temperature and the propulsion generated by steam allowed her to barely hold her own against the first mate.
"An Jing, it's up to you. Shield the spaceship and unleash the Moose's fighting force. There are Snake Clan members approaching!" Tian Lan, relying on the remaining clouds and using her environmental detection skills, sensed two Snake Clan members approaching and quickly said.
You Qiying narrowed his eyes, and an invisible phantom appeared behind him, soaring towards the spaceship. It passed through the force field shield and Integration directly into the spaceship's outer shell. The entire spaceship instantly disappeared from everyone's sight. Then, the force field shield disappeared, and the Moose, who had been stunned in place, instantly regained its luster in its eyes.
Two snake-people who noticed the commotion rushed over, wriggling their tails. Xiao Lan gritted her teeth and abandoned her plan to finish them off, charging straight over instead. The Moose stretched its body and also walked towards the snake-people, determined to at least stop these two and buy time for the majority to escape.
"Get on the spaceship quickly, this way!" You Qiying looked at the people on the Christopher and quickly pointed out the correct path, urging them to get on the spaceship as soon as possible.
The two snake people wriggled their tails, channeling their Shadow Magic, and each condensed a ball of venom in their hands, unleashing a spell that almost all snake people knew—the venom spray.
This spell is typically easy to learn but difficult to master. Most adult snake people can learn it, but whether it can truly unleash its power depends on the individual. Initially, it uses Shadow Magic to form the most basic venom, and then how the venom is prepared depends on the individual's skill.
Some snake-dwellers add acidic substances to the venom to make it corrosive, while others research and modify the structure of the venom, adding spiritual will to turn it into creatures like Gu worms. Still others add metallic radiation to turn the venom into toxic rays.
In short, there are many kinds of poison, so there are also many kinds of venom spray. The venom in the hands of the two snake people took shape almost instantly and then flew towards the two people opposite them. Xiao Lan's heart was pounding. She turned her body to dodge the flying venom and activated a skill. Her whole body was glowing red and her physical strength was amplified. She then unleashed a cannon punch.
The green light in front of the Moose swirled, transforming into wooden shields that blocked the incoming venom. White smoke then billowed from the wooden shields, and a sweet, cloying smell spread. The Moose felt dizzy and quickly used a skill, causing a burst of green light to rise from its body, thus dispelling the dizziness.
He tossed a few seeds away and activated another skill. All the seeds instantly sprouted and swelled, transforming into several drooling, man-eating flowers that lunged at the snake people. The Moose glanced at the group that had almost all entered and the Thousand-Dimensional Eye slowly drifting towards them in the distance, then shouted, "Retreat! Forget about the rest!"
"I understand!" Tian Lan shouted, each word distinct, her skin flushed red and her temperature rising. She clenched her fist and punched the other first mate, who snorted and threw a punch back, "Trying to run? Don't even dream about it! Bombardment Cannon Punch!!"
As their fists collided, Tian Lan's right hand snapped, with bone fragments protruding from her elbow. Meanwhile, as Tian Lan's other fist struck, a large amount of high-temperature steam erupted, impacting the first mate and sending him flying backward.
Tian Lan turned and ran towards You Qiying. After throwing out several more seeds, the Moose also rushed over there. Xiao Lan gritted her teeth, her heart pounding. Her surging blood and qi were stored in her heart, and she activated her other skill: Thousand Chimes Strike.
With her qi and blood mobilized and her strength flowing, Xiao Lan threw a punch at the snake people. A large amount of qi and blood circulated, emitting a pleasant collision sound. Countless qi and blood mixed with strength impacted the snake people's bodies.
Without even looking at the result, Xiao Lan quickly turned and rushed towards You Qiying's location. The Moose was the fastest, and following You Qiying's guidance, it charged towards the spaceship. Then You Qiying also stepped half a foot into the spaceship, with only half of his body showing, indicating his location.
Tian Lan and Xiao Lan rushed towards the spaceship one after the other, while several Thousand-Dimensional Eye took flight from the sky, their energy swirling, unsurprisingly preparing to unleash energy attacks such as rays.
Damn it! I wrote 1,800 words, but it was all lost due to a glitch. Chapters 3 and 4 will be delayed. Sorry.
