April and her team of wizards, who had just escaped the cave, looked back at the cave in confusion. After Leo told them to cover their retreat, they actually found that no Eyeless Spider were chasing them.
It's not that they don't believe Leo would really cover the rear, but the whole thing is very strange. Everyone knows that Leo decided to leave the group after hearing the sound, so Leo wasn't doing it to cover the rear, but for that mysterious creature.
"Let's wait a bit further away. I'll report the message to the command center." After thinking for a moment, April decided to wait for Leo.
They hadn't forgotten the scene of those three Level Three Great Wizard capturing the mysterious creature together; its importance was self-evident. Now that they had discovered it, they had to report it, and perhaps they could earn a considerable amount of battle merits.
But as soon as April lifted her foot, she saw the ground shaking, tiny pebbles bobbing around like fleas on a war drum, and the earth that supports the world undulating like the surface of a sea.
Everyone in the team noticed the anomaly, and all eyes instantly turned to the distance.
Just a few kilometers away from them, the ground first sank, then suddenly rose up.
A light brighter than the stars in the sky shot out from the ruptured ground, illuminating the entire underground world with dazzling brilliance.
Turn around and run!!!
The moment Alice saw the explosion, she shuddered, and the hairs on her body stood on end.
At her second glance, Alice saw that the explosion was no more than ten kilometers away and realized the danger. She shouted to warn the team to avoid the bright light and then ran.
nuclear bombs,
Besides Leo, she was the person she knew best. Not only had she seen him with her own eyes, but Leo had also told her how to avoid him.
For them, who are First-Level Wizard, running fifteen kilometers is no problem at all.
"Boom"
They had just taken off when an explosion came from behind them, accompanied by a sharp rise in temperature, and a relatively weak shockwave swept in all directions.
The shockwave, which appeared to have absorbed much of its energy from the soil, was not very strong, but it still relentlessly destroyed everything in its path.
The shockwave instantly traveled nearly ten kilometers and struck the fleeing squad directly.
It felt like I'd been slapped hard on the back with a big stick; my initial speed instantly surged to its limit.
The protective shields on their bodies flickered with varying brightness, indicating that the shields had reached their limit. If the shockwave were just a little stronger, their shields would be destroyed instantly.
Such a terrifying attack forced them to desperately channel their magical power into the protective shield, gritting their teeth and doing everything in their power to maintain its existence.
Using the power of the shockwave, they flew fifteen kilometers in just a few breaths.
I forced myself to stop, and looked in the direction of the explosion with lingering fear. All I could see was millions of tons of soil being blown high into the air by the explosion, before crashing down heavily.
The thunderous roar made the entire earth tremble.
A giant fireball emerged from the ground, stubbornly soaring into the sky. However, the underground world was only a thousand meters high. The continuously expanding fireball soon crashed into the sky and crust of the underground world, and the fire spread, extending for a full thousand meters.
It was as if the whole world had been engulfed in a sea of flames, the joyful, dancing flames reflected in every pair of astonished eyes.
"Squeak squeak squeak"
Accompanying the raging fire was a piercing scream of extreme anger, as if the person was enduring unimaginable pain.
It was that large tumor that was injured by the nuclear explosion!
" Allison and Amanda, look for Leo." Alice was unusually anxious.
Since Leo detonated the nuclear bomb and injured the mysterious creature, Leo will surely face the most brutal retribution.
Allison and Amanda didn't have time to ask what had happened. Upon hearing Alice's words, they immediately unleashed all their sensory magic, carefully searching for any trace of Leo.
"Found them! Benji is flying over with Leo."
As soon as Amanda finished speaking, Benji had transformed back into his true form, flew swiftly towards the group.
Before Benji could even reach the location of the explosion behind him, an army of Eyeless Spider erupted like a geyser, charging towards Benji without hesitation.
The aftershocks of the explosion had not yet dissipated, and the high temperature continued, but these Eyeless Spider armies ignored all harm. Even being burned by the intense heat and shattered by the shockwaves, they stubbornly continued their pursuit of Leo!
The killing intent emanating from them was more terrifying than ever before!
Benji sensed the pursuers behind him, and just one glance back made his three tails tremble with fear.
At a glance, he spotted more than ten Level Three Eyeless Spider, followed closely by a large group of Level Two Eyeless Spider!
"Come on up, I'll get you out of here!" Benji shouted anxiously to Alice and the others.
At this point, anyone with eyes could tell something was wrong and they should run. Only Level Three Great Wizard could withstand such a pursuing force!
No one in the squad was faster Benji, and in an instant, all nine of them were on Benji's back, escaping together.
With Tao Rhys staff, Benji's speed increased by a factor of 30%, propelling Bangani away at breakneck speed.
The army of Eyeless Spider behind them seemed to have set their sights on Benji, relentlessly pursuing him and ignoring any other wizards they encountered along the way, clinging tightly to Benji.
As soon as Alice climbed onto Benji's back, she saw Leo lying there, his body shriveled and barely breathing, looking like a blood-soaked gourd.
His armor was covered in wounds, with some sections revealing the flesh beneath. Anyone who saw this armor could imagine the terrifying attack Leo had suffered.
" Leo? Leo?"
Alice tried calling out a few times, but Leo didn't move an inch.
Tao Rhys stepped forward and waved her staff continuously, beams of light falling on Leo. Leo's injuries healed rapidly, but there was no sign of him waking up, and his aura continued to weaken.
"Return to the mothership command center. Leo's injuries are beyond our capabilities to resolve; only the equipment on the mothership can save him."
To return to the surface world from the underground, one must first find the tunnel created by the energy cannon on the mothership.
Even at Benji speed, it took a full five days.
For the past five days, Alice and the others have not only been worried about Leo's injuries, but also feared that he might die at any moment if he didn't hold on.
He was also terrified as he watched the army of Eyeless Spider relentlessly pursuing him.
Ten Level Three Eyeless Spider chased after them like mad dogs. If it weren't for the fact that Benji was also level three, they would have been caught long ago. Needless to say, the best outcome after being caught would have been a quick death.
Some wizards tried to help intercept them along the way, but these ten Level Three Eyeless Spider, after being attacked, did not know how to retaliate. They simply endured the attacks and relentlessly pursued Benji. Judging from their appearance, they would chase Benji to the ends of the earth and never let him go.
Everyone wanted to ask what Banjani Li Xi had done to provoke such a frenzied pursuit by so many high-level eyeless spiders. It was as if Li Xi had stabbed their wives in the ass, a fight to the death. But Banjani used the excuse of needing to fly at full speed to deflect their questions.
On the fifth day, before Leo had even breathed his last, he finally saw the tunnel connecting to the ground, and through the tunnel, he could even see the starship hovering high in the sky.
[A large number of third-order energy reactions were discovered.]
[Target identified as ten Level Three Eyeless Spider; destroy them.]
Dozens of small dots immediately flew out from the starship in the sky. When they got closer, they were found to be a large group of level three slaves, numbering more than thirty.
They flew past Benji just as Benji was taking off.
Only then did the team members breathe a sigh of relief. Being hunted for five whole days was even more thrilling than several major battles. This was probably one of the few times in their lives they had escaped a high-level hunt and survived.
"Haha, I actually survived!"
"Coo coo"
"Coo coo"
Leo struggled to open her eyes and found herself lying in a nutrient tank, with large bubbles rising from her mouth.
"You're awake. You've been unconscious for a whole month. You've finally woken up." A young-looking wizard smiled at Leo through the nutrient tank after seeing Leo wake up.
With the young wizard's intervention, Leo was quickly and automatically pulled out of the nutrient tank.
"Cough cough, how did I get here?"
Whenever Leo thought, a sharp pain shot through his head, as if his brain had lost its memory, and he couldn't recall many things.
He can now recall that the last thing he saw was his team carrying out a cleanup mission in an underground cave. The rest is a blank; he doesn't know how he got injured or how he got here.
"Your soul has been wounded. There's no good way to heal this kind of wound; it can only heal slowly. Now that you're awake, go outside. Your friends and comrades are still waiting for you. I think they'll give you a good explanation regarding your memories."
The young wizard completely disregarded how uncomfortable Leo was and simply kicked Leo out.
Leo was panting heavily, his steps unsteady, utterly exhausted, as if he had returned to Earth's era.
Especially the brain; the slightest movement makes him feel nauseous and want to vomit. If you were to describe the same feeling, it would be a severe concussion, as if someone had put his brain in a blender and blended it for days before putting it back in.
Walking in a straight line is incredibly difficult!!
"Awake? How's the recovery going?"
Seeing Leo stagger out, Alice, who was waiting outside, asked with concern.
"You're finally awake! I thought you were going to die."
Benji retracted its three tails and jumped onto Leo's shoulder, but even that little bit of weight almost made Leo stumble and fall to the ground.
Leo's disheveled state prompted Benji to jump down, instantly enlarging herself to catch Leo as she was about to fall.
