Reuniting with Ding Dong!

On the battlefield, no one expected that a group of Little Jumping Frog would be able to entangle the Eight Vajras painted by the artist Chen with a year's worth of effort.

Zard excitedly shouted towards the Chen Clan troops in the distance, "This is my Little Jumping Frog! This is my big brother!"

Qing Chen: "..."

Chen Clan soldier: "..."

The Chen Clan soldier were all stunned. What was going on with this smug look on the battlefield all of a sudden?

In an instant, Chen Clan soldier pulled the trigger and concentrated their fire.

"You Ju!"

Qing Chen no longer stood behind the sand wall, but stepped out and opened his palms.

Bullets rained down, lingering in front of him.

A voice roared from within Chen Clan troops, "Not again?!"

"Wu Ju!"

In an instant, Qing Chen used the same trick again. The surging bullets hovered in front of him, then turned around and poured all of them onto Chen Clan troops!

In Qing Chen's timeline, he had rested for a sufficient amount of time—seven days, enough for him to recover to his peak condition. Moreover, the seven days of uninterrupted cultivation of the Myriad Thunder Department with the help of the Purple Orchid Star had made him even stronger than before.

But in the eyes of Chen Clan soldier, only a few minutes had passed since Qing Chen last used " with You Ju" and "Wu Ju," and some soldiers in the unit were still shouting things like "he is exhausted."

As a result, just a few minutes later, Qing Chen's counterattack became even more terrifying!

The soldiers actually knew that Qing Chen and the others were Time Walker, but they had never personally fought against such a bizarre target, so it was difficult for them to understand the true advantages of Time Walker!

Their war was continuous and exhausting, but Qing Chen and the others' was not.

Even Zard, who was exhausted before his last return, has recovered his strength.

At that moment, as the wave of bullets swept in reverse, hundreds of Chen Clan soldier were riddled with bullets, and bursts of blood mist exploded in the night sky illuminated by flares.

The soldiers in the back row had their faces covered with a scarlet veil.

At this moment, the Eight Great Vajras were still being entangled in a battle with the Little Jumping Frog.

Qing Chen silently watched this scene, reassessing Huan Yu's strength.

If the scene before us is all due to the Forbidden Item ACE-066, then Huan Yu's own cultivation, combined with this Forbidden Item, becomes extremely terrifying.

To this day, Qing Chen has not yet seen any of Huan Yu's cultivation levels as a painter of the Chen family.

In his speculation, Huan Yu is most likely an A-level artist, otherwise she wouldn't be able to face Zard so confidently.

However, just when everyone thought Huan Yu was about to unleash his full power and kill the enemy, the expert who had just arrogantly uttered the words "Formless" suddenly closed his eyes and fainted on the spot...

Qing Chen: "..."

Zhang Mengqian, Sun Chuci, Tuanzi: "..."

This is a bit too sudden!

Qing Chen looked back and saw that even though Huan Yu had fainted, the Little Jumping Frog still hadn't stopped biting.

It is undoubtedly Forbidden Item. If the Awakened loses consciousness, then all awakened abilities will vanish.

However, this situation will not occur with the effects of Forbidden Item.

At that very moment, another Flying Goddess flew out from the Chen Clan troops. She held a three-foot-three-inch sword and waved it as she flew towards Huan Yu!

Qing Chen suddenly looked at the Chen Clan troops. He wanted to find and kill that Chen family painter so that the battle would end. However, the opponent knew that his physical body was weak, so he hid very well.

He even suspected that the artist was now dressed in the uniform of an ordinary soldier, mingling with the other soldiers.

This is the most suitable fighting style for the painter Chen: to hide his weak body in a huge army so that no one can find him, while the eight Vajra he painted can kill at will.

Zard shouted, "Go get him!"

"Let's go," Qing Chen said, pulling the trigger with his Black Sniper electromagnetic cannon as he spoke. But this time, the enemy was prepared, flying through the sky at A-level speed, making it difficult to aim.

Qing Chen fired three shots, and only one of them barely hit the Flying Goddess in the abdomen, slowing down her pursuit of Huan Yu!

"Hurry," he said to Zard, "We still don't know how many years that artist has been holding back. Hurry up!"

As the group approached under Zard's earthen wall cover, before they even got close, Zard manipulated the sand to support Huan Yu's body and transport it into their mobile sand shelter.

Qing Chen looked at Huan Yu.

At that moment, Zard suddenly said, "Boss, don't kill him! If you kill him, Little Yu will die too!"

Qing Chen said irritably, "I have no intention of killing him while he's unconscious. Even if I were to kill him, I would do it openly and honestly."

Zard said, "Even doing it openly isn't okay, Little Yu will die too..."

Qing Chen suddenly felt something was strange. Zard and this Big Yu had a rather distant relationship, and Big Yu was also very hostile towards Zard. It seemed that their relationship was maintained entirely by that Little Yu.

Because Little Yu would be sad if Zard died, Big Yu came to save Zard.

Because if Big Yu dies, Little Yu will also die, so Zard has to save Big Yu.

What a strange love triangle...

However, Qing Chen never expected that one day he would have to save Huan Yu...

Fate is unpredictable.

Qing Chen said, "Don't worry, I won't kill him right now, but isn't there a way to separate the two of them?"

Zard shook his head. "Big Yu said that perhaps when he reaches the level of a demigod, his spiritual will begins to merge with the world, and there might be a new way, but there isn't one yet."

As they were speaking, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from the rear of the battlefield—the sound of cluster bombs!

"Let's go!" Qing Chen said, "Now is not the time for idle chatter. Yang Yang should have already destroyed the heavy firepower units in the rear. Let's charge into the Chen Clan troops's formation! We'll pick up Yang Yang and then leave, dragging the Chen Clan troops into Forbidden Zone No. 002 before killing them!"

"Zard, follow my direction and charge!" Qing Chen shouted.

"Okay!"

There were only six of them, yet they charged headlong into Field Division of six thousand men. If someone were to look down from the sky, they would be amazed by the magnificent spirit behind this stark contrast!

Yang Yang went to bomb the rear heavy artillery units for them, and now that the enemy has finished, they have to take Yang Yang with them!

At this moment, a slender figure flew back quickly from above the battlefield. The Chen Clan troops on the ground concentrated their fire on her, but she dodged them all with her agile flight path.

The girl landed in the cover and continued charging with them.

Qing Chen quickly asked, "Are you hurt?"

Yang Yang's lips curled up slightly. "I suffered internal injuries just now, and my chest hurts a little."

Qing Chen pulled her behind him. "You rest for a bit and don't fight anymore. I'll handle it. I didn't expect you to come back so quickly. Let's withdraw now and lure the Chen Clan troops into Forbidden Zone No. 002. That's our home ground."

"Wait, although Chen's heavy firepower has already been blown up," Yang Yang said, "I saw Ding Dong and another giant leading hundreds of wild boars charging north from the south. They are at most 1,600 meters away from us, but although they outnumber us, they have tied down most of Chen Clan troops. It looks like Chen Clan troops are about to encircle them."

Qing Chen fell silent.

In his plan, Forbidden Zone No. 002 was his main battlefield.

Keep in mind that this is a Field Division with nearly 6,000 men. Even if they fight slowly, the enemy can wear them down one by one until they are all exhausted.

Qing Chen's Wu Ju can kill hundreds of people, and Zard's Heavenly Burial can kill hundreds more. Even if Boss He and Boss Zheng kill another one or two thousand people, how will they kill the remaining people? Those are more than two thousand soldiers with live ammunition.

If Zard and he are exhausted, they will have no means to counter firearms.

However, Ding Dong and Gu Dong came to save him.

No wonder Chen Clan troops didn't mobilize their main force to bomb them earlier; it turns out they were tied down by Ding Dong and Gu Dong.

I see.

Qing Chen took a deep breath. "I can't leave yet."

That gentle and kind giant waited all winter just for him to come and eat the fruit.

Qing Chen could not let such a giant die because of him.

Yang Yang said, "I'll go with you."

Zard: "I'm going too!"

Holding an automatic rifle in her arms, Zhang Mengqian looked timidly at the shop owner in front of her and said, "I'll go too..."

Sun Chuci and Tuanzi: "Let's go too!"

These people didn't even ask Qing Chen where he was going.

Qing Chen looked at Zhang Mengqian: "Aren't you scared?"

Zhang Mengqian said, "I've had enough of this mundane, mediocre life. I'd rather die a spectacular death."

Qing Chen fell silent, then suddenly looked at Yang Yang and said with a smile, "Looks like I was being sentimental. I was thinking of charging over there by myself, but let's go together then. Don't worry, nobody will die!"

Yang Yang's smile deepened, "I know where Ding Dong and the others are. I'll show you the way."

"Okay!" Qing Chen said.

Instead of retreating, the group charged south again!

Without the threat of heavy firepower, Zard's sand wall was like a solid bunker, impenetrable by any bullet.

In just over ten minutes, Qing Chen and his group had advanced nearly a kilometer to the south.

On the southern battlefield, the fierce Gu Dong roared, charging left and right with the main battle tank as a shield, but even a giant like him would eventually run out of strength.

Even holding something weighing several tons can be tiring.

But Gu Dong's body was covered in wounds, with shrapnel lodged in his waist and bullets embedded in his muscles.

He charged forward at the very front of the wild boar herd, his body covered in wounds, his blood staining his bare upper body red.

Strangely enough, Gu Dong blocked all the damage. He was covered in wounds, but Ding Dong was completely unharmed, only a little exhausted.

"Gu Dong!"

(Brother, we're leaving now! Your friend should be safe by now!)

"Ding Dong!"

(Good!)

After saying that, Gu Dong held up the main battle tank next to him and Ding Dong, and roared, calling the wild boars to retreat towards Forbidden Zone No. 002.

Ding Dong is kind-hearted and doesn't even dare to kill ants. Now that she's caught up in a war, she can only hold up another tank to keep blocking the fire.

Gu Dong said he wanted to leave, he immediately agreed.

But they had only gone a short distance when they saw Chen Clan troops appear behind them, with dozens of tanks covering nearly a thousand soldiers as they attacked.

Boom!

The main battle tank fired!

With a loud bang, the shell struck the "tank shield" in Gu Dong's hand. The explosive force sent Gu Dong flying, back into the encirclement of Chen Clan troops.

Chen's special forces were already quietly waiting nearby, ready to subdue the two giants at any time.

Gu Dong slowly stood up, shook its head, and roared, "Gu Dong!"

(Brother, we're going to die here to save your friend!)

Ding Dong sounded a little sad, "Ding Dong."

(I'm sorry for holding you back.)

"Gu Dong!"

(Haha, why are you apologizing? I'm your brother, it's my duty to protect you. Besides, you didn't ask me to help, the old guys called me. Looks like we're going to die here... I told you before, humans can't be trusted. Your friend must have abandoned you and run away. I've seen many shameless humans in other Forbidden Zone.)

Ding Dong, somewhat indignantly. "Ding Dong!"

(He's not that kind of person!)

But just then, someone shouted from the north of the battlefield, "Ding Dong, watch out, I'm coming!"

Gu Dong suddenly turned around, his large, fierce eyes narrowing slightly. He hadn't expected the other party to actually come to rescue Ding Dong.

He knew very well what it meant for the enemy to break through the encirclement at this moment.

Gu Dong punched Chen Clan soldier while observing Qing Chen.

Qing Chen had already begun his killing spree. He picked up the corpse of a Chen Clan soldier from the ground, pulling out the soldier's hair while unleashing his Knight True Qi.

Each activation involves a salvo of dozens of Autumn Leaf Blades.

As the corpse grew balder, Qing Chen's Knight True Qi also began to run out!

However, the Chen Clan troops around him seemed to be endless, with one after another charging forward!

Gu Dong was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he had ever seen humans use other people's hair as an ammunition depot. He looked at his brother on the battlefield and called out, "Gu Dong!"

(It wasn't a wasted trip, brother. I apologize to you; this human wasn't bad.)

Ding Dong laughed.

A voice on the Chen Clan troops's military communications channel said, "The harvesting of those two giants on the southern battlefield is about to be completed. They want to regroup now? Wishful thinking. Those two giants must be captured and brought back to our clan for research. They are a variant of the new generation of humans. Capturing them will definitely lead to a breakthrough in the development of gene-based drugs. Use thermobaric weapons! Blow that bunker apart!"

As one of the most lethal weapons in individual combat, thermobaric weapons have always been the core weapon for destroying bunkers.

A single thermobaric bomb can generate temperatures of 3,500 degrees Celsius within a 50-meter radius and instantly deplete all nearby oxygen.

Even if Qing Chen and the others have bunkers, they will still die, because thermobaric bombs are specifically designed to destroy bunkers.

Even the elementalized Zard will eventually be scorched into glass by the high temperature.

Someone sneered on the communication channel, "I'm going to bring that glass formed by the Earth Element Awakened into my home and use it as a decoration."

"But sir, there are our men all around that bunker. The thermobaric bomb could accidentally injure hundreds of people," the adjutant said to the commander.

The commander coldly glanced at his adjutant. "Womanly compassion! Make your move!"

As they spoke, more than a dozen soldiers brought out RPG rocket launchers-style thermobaric weapon launchers.

The adjutant gritted his teeth. "Aim!"

At that moment, Zheng Yuandong, who was in the group, saw this scene and calmly said to He Jinqiu beside him, "What are you waiting for?"

He Jinqiu laughed and said, "Boss Zheng, what are you saying? I wasn't waiting. I was just looking for the commander of this unit. Look, I found him!"

In an instant, a black scepter appeared in He Jinqiu's hand, the silver deer head on top of it shining brightly.

He then raised his black scepter and slammed it into the ground, causing ripples of yellow light to spread outwards, which blew the Chen Clan soldier around him dozens of meters away.

"Swimming Dragon!"

As soon as he finished speaking, nine palm-sized Azure Jade Heart Sword moved through the crowd like golden dragons in a rushing river.

The Chen commander had just opened his mouth to say, "Fire..."

An Azure Jade Heart Sword struck with lightning speed, piercing right through his brow without any warning. The remaining eight Azure Jade Heart Sword moved around the cloud bomb gunners, killing them one by one!

He Jinqiu smiled and looked at Zheng Yuandong: "Old squad leader, it's your turn."

Standing beside He Jinqiu, Zheng Yuandong remained unaffected by the black scepter. He simply sighed, "Truly, nothing's wrong, Boss Zheng; but when something's wrong, it's Old Sergeant."

He Jinqiu looked on expectantly. "I've always been curious about what other tricks the old squad leader has up his sleeve."

"There's no need to use your trump card here."

As he spoke, Zheng Yuandong took out the Black True Sight Eye from his pocket and said firmly, "Greatly revitalize the Northwest."

He Jinqiu knew that it was the most interesting spell in the wizarding tradition, which would randomly summon a giant beast that existed in the world to attack all living beings present.

As soon as Zheng Yuandong finished speaking, a huge rainbow gate suddenly appeared in front of him, from which came a tremendous roar.

The next second, Zheng Yuandong pulled He Jinqiu away quickly. Before they had gone far, a huge brown bear with a body length of more than ten meters suddenly rushed out.

Its scarlet eyes glared at the Chen Clan soldier around it.

The soldiers concentrated their fire, but this amount of firepower was far from enough for the brown bear; it could only be used to provoke it!

He Jinqiu was stunned for a moment. "Isn't this the Killer Bear from Forbidden Zone No. 003? That's right, the scars on its face are exactly the same!"

However, three scars were visible on the brown bear's right eye, the marks left from its battles with other wild beasts in the Forbidden Zone during its youth.

Now this brown bear has become the king of Forbidden Zone No. 003, with no rivals left, and is known as the Killer Bear.

For most explorers, Forbidden Zone No. 003 is actually more dangerous than Forbidden Land 002.

The danger of Forbidden Zone No. 002 lies in its numerous rules.

The danger of Forbidden Zone No. 003 lies in the fact that this Killer Bear has an extremely strong sense of territory and doesn't follow any rules.

Once, an A-level expert defied the odds and entered the Forbidden Zone No. 003, never to emerge again.

Huotang once commented that the Killer Bear from Forbidden Zone No. 003, the Vermilion Bird from Forbidden Zone No. 002, and the Divine Ox from Forbidden Zone No. 019 were the non-human beings most likely to step into the realm of demigods.

But this overlord of the Forbidden Zone was forcibly dragged here by Zheng Yuandong using witchcraft!

He Jinqiu looked at Zheng Yuandong.

It's important to understand that what a summoning spell can summon depends on the caster's strength; the stronger the caster, the stronger the creature they can summon.

Strictly speaking, the caster is a cut above the summoned creature.

Therefore, this old squad leader actually had one foot on the threshold of becoming a demigod!

When the Killer Bear, twice the size of a main battle tank, came into contact with Chen Clan troops, it tore the entire formation apart the moment they met.

The Killer Bear was furious. It was sleeping in Forbidden Zone No. 003 in the middle of the night when it was forcibly dragged to this inexplicable place and shot with thousands of bullets.

How could it not be angry?

Its anger will require Chen Clan troops to pay the price.

Its anger finally gave Qing Chen and the others a chance to catch their breath.

Qing Chen and Ding Dong have reunited!

In addition, I made a quick summary of the Forbidden Item up to now this afternoon and posted it on the Qidian APP and in the bonus chapter after Chapter 664, but the image is too big and I'm not sure if everyone can see it clearly. I will also post it on my Weibo (The Talking Elbow) later. You can zoom in to see it, because there are quite a few Forbidden Item, and it will be a bit hard on your eyes if you can't zoom in...

By the way, I bought this Weibo username from someone else for 1,500 yuan back then...

The images and Easter egg stamps need to be approved, and I don't know how long it will take for them to appear.

Finally, due to time constraints and the potential for spoilers, the categories of "extractor" and "owner" will likely be compiled in full after the series concludes.
