Chapter 400 What Is a Map Cannon? (Tactical Retreat)
Zhuge Lang hid in a house, stuffing a nutritional pill into his mouth while secretly looking out the window.
Accompanied by the crackling sound of kicking the door, a group of jackal warriors were sweeping the streets outside. They did not miss any place where people might hide, and every house had to be carefully searched.
In front of this group of monsters that were more than two meters tall and much larger than humans, ordinary doors were almost as good as paper, and even steel anti-theft doors were broken by their axes in a few strokes.
Getting closer... Zhuge Lang gritted his teeth, and his forehead was sweating...
He had already dodged two waves of sweeps, and even used an invisibility charm during the period... He was not afraid of these monsters. In front of the peak, this kind of summoned creatures could be easily dealt with. But the problem was, who knew if the masked man who summoned them would be able to sense it and immediately lock his position.
But the town was so small, where could he hide?
I don't know what kind of treasure this is, how can it summon so many monsters? Now, this group of monsters patrols every street and alley in the town, and there are sounds of doors being destroyed everywhere. Zhuge Lang even suspects that it was not so lively when the town had not fallen into the crack of time and space...
Sometimes, these guys don't even bother to go through the door, and directly demolish the house... For example, those crocodile monsters that are four or five meters tall can destroy a house with one round of weapons in their hands.
Zhuge Lang is also an old hand who has been in the cultivation world for decades. He has seen countless treasures and abilities. He can guess that these monsters should be summoned by some kind of treasure... But even if it is a mythical treasure, it can't be summoned indefinitely!
Take these dog-headed monsters for example. According to Zhuge Lang's experience, summoning such a monster will take at least dozens of breaths of vitality. Now there are at least tens of thousands of them in the town. Even if the situation of cultivating the essence and reducing consumption is taken into account, it will take at least 200,000 breaths of vitality to come down... Who can be so generous?
Who is that masked man?
I have been away from the main world for too long. When did such a person appear?
Just as he was sighing, a jackal warrior came to the door of this room, raised his dog leg and kicked the door to pieces, ducked and poked his head in, and looked around.
The room was empty...
The jackal warrior did not give up, waving the axe in his hand, smashing the beds, wardrobes, curtains... In short, all the places where people could be hidden, and only stopped after confirming that there was no problem, but he seemed a little unwilling, stepped on the windowsill at the door, hesitated for a while, and then left.
Seeing this monster go away in disappointment, a relieved voice sounded in the room.
I saw a human figure slowly appearing on the ceiling of the bedroom inside, as if growing out of the snow-white floor.
In a moment, the human figure regained color, and it was Zhuge Lang.
Another prop was used... When has my great Spirit King ever been so frustrated?
But time is running out. As long as he can hold on for another twenty minutes, this round will end, and the damn masked man will disappear. It will take at least a few rounds for him to become the attacker again.
Of course, it would be best to kill ten people and complete the main task before his turn comes... But if not, it would be fine to drag it until the end of the tenth round... This is not the first time Zhuge Lang has experienced the death process. He boasts that he is at the peak level and has a certain degree of confidence in passing the Class A elimination process. He would rather face the elimination of the task than face the masked man again.
Although this room has been searched, there are more than one wave of dog-headed monsters, and there may be more coming soon. It is better to move as soon as possible. Zhuge Lang fell from the ceiling and tiptoed out of the bedroom. He couldn't help complaining that the room was smashed into a mess and there was almost no place to step...
He was walking in the house. When he passed the door, he suddenly heard a slap under his feet. He looked down and seemed to have stepped on a puddle of water...
Was there water here before? Zhuge Lang frowned, but didn't care. He shook his feet and left the door secretly.
There was a roar above his head. Looking up, he saw a 100-meter-long dragon flying through the sky. This was also the monster summoned by that guy... I had experienced it last time. It was very powerful and could change into various forms... With this guy patrolling in the air, it was easy to find his traces from a high position. He must not be exposed in an open place...
Zhuge Lang walked along the wall and passed through a dark alley. Suddenly, there was a noisy sound in front. Zhuge Lang hid in the corner and secretly looked sideways. He found that a group of dog-headed monsters passed by on the road outside.
Zhuge Lang quietly hid in the shadows, waiting for the group of monsters to leave, but suddenly, the group of dog-headed monsters stopped in the middle of the road. The leader shrugged his nose and opened his mouth to grunt a few times behind him. I don't know what he was saying. Then the other dog-headed monsters also moved their noses, as if they were smelling something.
Catch me by smell? Zhuge Lang was prepared. One of the accessories he was wearing had an active special effect. When worn, it could block smells, reduce sound, and even reduce his presence... Although it was only a rare grade, the effect was very practical.
At least, it was impossible for these dog-headed monsters to catch me by nose!
But not long after, a few of those dog-headed monsters actually walked towards Zhuge Lang.
Zhuge Lang was stunned. Was he discovered? This shouldn't be the case... I clearly...
Suddenly, he remembered the pool of liquid he had just stepped on, and looked down at his shoes...
That wasn't water, it was urine!
I was hanging on the ceiling of the bedroom and didn't see clearly that the dog-headed monster at the door was not stepping on the windowsill unwillingly, but was peeing there with his legs crossed!
Zhuge Lang, who realized this, instinctively raised his foot and sniffed.
No smell... Yes, even if I was stained with something with a smell, as long as it was on me, the smell would be blocked... There was no reason for them to smell it...
Suddenly, Zhuge Lang noticed that there was a shallow footprint made up of water stains on the ground behind him.
He walked all the way with dog urine. Although the urine on his body could not be smelled, the urine left on the road had the smell that these jackal warriors were most sensitive to!
Thinking of this, Zhuge Lang could only turn back and escape into the darkness and leave immediately, but he had not walked far when a wolf howl sounded behind him.
The dog-headed monster must have noticed the footprints on the ground!
Must leave this place immediately!
But before he could walk far, a gust of wind pressure came from above his head. The dragon had already obeyed the call of the jackal warrior and flew over. With its high-altitude vision, it found Zhuge Lang and lowered its head to exhale!
Still discovered!
Zhuge Lang raised his hand and shot out a stream of energy to block the dragon's breath. He accelerated and rushed into the alley on the other side of the road, but the dragon chased him closely and turned into a black panther in the air, climbing and jumping between the walls of the street at a very fast speed!
Zhuge Lang turned around and threw a boomerang, shooting straight at the black panther. The black panther dodged nimbly and was swept off a few strands of black hair by the boomerang, but then the dart turned around and came back, cutting towards the back of the black panther's neck!
The black panther had expected this and rolled in the air to avoid it, but the dart turned around and chased it again!
It turned out that this was not just a boomerang, but also a tracking dart. Once thrown, it would never stop until it hit the target!
The black panther also knew the power of the boomerang, and dared not take it head-on. He could only jump up and down to dodge it, looking like a black cat restrained by a cat teaser. During this time, Zhuge Lang had already rushed out of the alley, but as soon as he came out, he saw two crocodile monsters intercepting him! Behind them, there were countless dog-headed monsters rushing here!
Cannot be blocked, Zhuge Lang's Qi is shining. Although he is not good at melee, he is at the peak level after all. The strength of Qi is not a problem to deal with such a few monsters. The key is how to solve them as quickly as possible without being dragged down!
It will take about 3.7 seconds to kill these two. If the masked man is rushing here, this time may be my deadline... Cannot delay here!
The one on the left uses an axe and is slower. I can use cleverness to divert him to attack the one on the right, and then I will pass through the gap in the middle. As long as I bypass them, these two idiots will not be able to catch me!
Thinking of this, Zhuge Lang was ready and rushed forward! But at this moment, the two crocodile monsters suddenly froze, and then with a wave of waves sweeping past, the two monsters, along with the dog-headed monsters behind them, turned into dust and dissipated...
What's going on? Zhuge Lang was wondering, and suddenly felt a ball of red light on his head. Looking up, he saw a huge meteorite passing through the clouds and falling in his direction!
This... is a bit too much!
Zhuge Lang wanted to escape, but the speed of the meteorite was so fast that it landed in the blink of an eye. With a bang, a huge shock wave and heat wave swallowed everything around, and the whole town was shrouded in a doomsday-like flame...
At the same time, on the roof of a house on the edge of the town, Luo Jun was looking at the shining light in the distance.
"Stand behind me!"
With a command, the three projections hid behind him honestly. Luo Jun turned on the maximum power of the Condensed Qi, resisted the sweeping shock wave, and also protected the three people behind him.
When the dust settled, the town no longer existed. With the meteorite landing point as the center, a huge meteorite crater covering most of the town could be seen. All buildings and houses no longer existed, and they were all turned into molten magma. Although Luo Jun was far away, the surrounding area was full of broken walls and rubble. Only the place where he stood and a small area behind him were not affected.
No... There is another place, Luo Jun noticed that within the range of the meteorite crater, there was an unaffected place standing stubbornly.
It was the station!
The station, which was protected by the mission rules, also survived the meteorite fall. Not only was it unscathed, but it also protected the ground below, standing alone in the pit, like an island in the ocean.
"I didn't expect that this meteorite is actually the function of the ancestor skeleton ring..."
Luo Jun always thought that this move was Zhuge Lang's ultimate move, and he had been on guard. However, after checking the properties of the mythical quality skeleton ring and communicating with the summoned Ailontan, he realized that this was actually a hidden function after the head ring was upgraded!
The mythical quality skeleton ring has several summons that are the same as the legendary quality. The difference is that the jackal warriors and soldiers have canceled the summoning limit, while the crocodile-shaped ancient guards have increased the limit to ten. In addition, the special summons of the high priest and the ancient queen have also been strengthened.
The strengthening of the ancient queen is obvious. The dragon form is something that was not there before, and the high priest's spellcasting ability has also been greatly strengthened.
General spells are easy to say, things like lightning storms and fire are just enhanced versions of the original. The biggest change is that there is an additional hidden spell, which is to summon meteorites!
This thing is a weapon of destruction. Without considering the radiation, just looking at the kinetic energy released, even nuclear weapons are inferior. It is a map cannon when it hits you, and there is no place to hide.
But such a powerful spell naturally has its limitations.
First of all, to cast this, you need to sacrifice all the summons of the skeleton ring. The more sacrifices, the bigger the summoned meteorite, and the stronger the power.
Secondly, this sacrifice is only a one-time thing for other summons, but it is permanent for the high priest who is responsible for casting the spell...
In other words, after using it, the ancestor skeleton ring will lose the ability to summon the high priest. From then on, it can only summon the ancient queen, the ancient honor guard, the jackal warrior and ordinary soldiers...
This kind of one-time big move with sequelae, ordinary people must be very cautious, and will not activate it unless it is absolutely necessary, but the projection has no such concerns. As long as there is a chance, it will be smashed. I am a one-time one myself, so I am not afraid of you!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Looking at the scorched earth in front of him, Luo Jun couldn't help smacking his lips: "The whole town, except for the station in the middle, has been razed to the ground." As he said that, he took a step forward: "Let's go and see if our Spirit King can hold on!"
Li Xiuzhen's projection created a large drone, carrying several people to fly into the pit, and soon arrived at the center.
The pit here is the deepest, the smoke has not yet dissipated, and the visibility is extremely low. Even with Luo Jun's perception, it is difficult to distinguish the scene below.
"Go deeper."
Li Xiuzhen's projection obediently manipulated the drone to go deep into the smoke, constantly approaching the bottom of the pit...
Suddenly, a giant steel hand drilled through the smoke and stretched out, grabbing the drone!
Li Xiuzhen hurriedly manipulated to avoid it, but the giant hand was very flexible, chasing it like a butterfly, and also took away the body behind it!
This is a steel giant over 100 meters tall, looking like an ancient knight's armor, standing in the meteorite crater, like a god descending to earth.
"This look..." Luo Jun frowned, then realized: "Could it be Chu Yunwei?"
