Chapter 418: Difficult
When Xiang Ning heard the roar, he immediately stopped and warned everyone. Theyre going to fire again!
Lan Quan heard him and didnt hesitate. He stopped and erected the strongest energy shield he could muster. The rest of his team did the same and shielded everyone.
The cultists naturally heard Xiang Nings warning, but hesitated. How does he know?
The sound of cannon fire erupted again as the earth was covered in explosions.
Lord Vulture was enraged; he and his cultists had stepped on so many traps on the way here. If they managed to get out of this place alive, they would become legends in the cult! Resentment and wrath had long since filled his heart when the Shura Tribe had bombarded them without warning the moment theyd appeared. But to think that they would do it again the moment their leader was in front of Vultures eyes. How dare they bomb us again!
You shitty bastards! Do you think Im weak?! I suffered so much to be here! His muscles grew again and every step he took left a crater on the ground. Dirt flew everywhere as he ran forward.
The mutants were doing the same as well. Explosions erupted from all around them, but none of the incoming fire managed to land a hit on the seven mutants.
The Shura Tribe was taken abackthey had never seen someone capable of dodging their bombardment! But so what?
Kill them! And you! Go and retrieve that damned brat! The leader of the battleship waved and his men ran out from the ship. They were equally fast as the cultists! Some of them closed in on the little girl.
The bombardment ceased and Lan Quan took off his exoskeleton. His strong muscles were pulsing and red as the men around him felt the temperature steadily increasing.
Xiang Ning stared at Lan Quan and realized how strong he was for the first timetier six, nine-star! He was just one step away from tier seven. They want to capture the girl. Do you want to go or should I?
You go. Lan Quans physical body exploded in size as it grew. While Azura was a very technologically advanced planet, its martial artists were strong as well. Against the constant war and onslaught of the Shura Tribe, their people had been forced to grow.
If the people on Earth were proficient in killing beasts, Lan Quan and his men were proficient in killing humanoids.
The two forces ran toward the Shura Tribe and the battle commenced.
On the other side of the battlefield, five Shuras had arrived near the little girl. Just as Helos was about to attack them, a single ballista shot out from the ship. It didnt puncture Helos skin, but the force of the strike pushed it away. The beast roared, but could only helplessly watch the little girl getting further and further away from it as it was pushed back hundreds of meters.
The first Shura battleship had landed on Earth. Following it, another battleship appeared from the dimensional rift.
The first ship suddenly shot a ray of crimson light into the sky. It penetrated the skies and into the outer reaches of space.
It was a beacon!
The Chaos detected the beacon, and Dong Qianyi ordered for it to be immediately intercepted.
No! Its too late! Its too fast! We couldve stopped it if wed prepared beforehand. Damn it! The operator blamed himself.
Damn, no choice. Full speed ahead! We need to get there ASAP! Lu Zhenyu ordered as he looked at Dong Qianyi.
Dong Qianyi closed his eyes and sighed in resignation. Earth has been exposed.
Don dont come any closer! The little girl was dragging her battered body away from the Shura, but Xiang Ning still needed time to reach her. Just as one of them stretched his hand and was ten steps away from her.
Bam!
A bullet worth hundreds of thousands of dollars flew through the battlefield and found its mark. The Shuras arm was shot clean off as the bullet continued its path and punched a hole into his body. He was dead on the spot.
But before the dismembered arm even had time to fall on the ground, the remaining four Shura warriors were almost catching up. Yu Qian hadnt expected that. Damn! Are they not fazed?
She wanted to shoot again, but realized that the distance was too close. If she fired a shot now, the little girl would be wounded by the shockwave of the bullet as well!
But she had bought enough time.
The sound of air being sliced apart came from behind the Shura warriors. The Devourer had been thrown toward the four Shura warriors by Xiang Ning. They would all die if they didn't dodge.
Clang!
The Devourer landed between the girl and the Shura warriors. They had stepped back! The little girls face froze as a small glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes and she suddenly felt her world turn. When she reorientated herself, she found that she was being carried by someone. She raised her head and saw an unfamiliar face. Black hair, black eyes, yellow skin. His forehead, however, had no horns. Hu Humans?
Xiang Ning held her closer to his chest.
Inferior species!
Fury Points +680
Fury Points +754
Tsk. To think that you all would raise your hands at a little girl. Youre the despicable ones here. Xiang Ning calmly removed the Devourer from the ground, its giant blade intimidating even the Shura warriors.
You you speak our language?
Just a little. Ive just learned it, after all. When the leader of the Shura warriors had roared just now, a small memory surfaced from within the depths of Xiang Nings mind. No wonder he felt the Shura Tribe was so familiar. He had already confronted them in the Exploration mode once. At that time, he was wondering how virtual entities could give him Fury Points. Looks like they werent so virtual after all.
Hmph! A mere inferior species doesnt have the privilege to speak our language. The Shura warrior suddenly sprang forward and thrust forward with his bayonet.
Xiang Ning didnt know how strong he was, but based on the speed, he wasnt weak. He held the Devourer in one hand and the little girl in the other.
Mountain-Splitting Slash! It was the Peak Mastery technique that had felled many foes. While it was only a basic technique, its true strength had long since been unlocked in Xiang Nings hands.
The sound of metal clashing was heard. Xiang Ning realized he was in danger. To think that his attack would be so easily defended!
Ha! Now die! The Shura warrior utilized his strong body and launched another powerful attack. Xiang Ning had no choice but to retreat.
The other three Shura warriors were also joining in on the fight. There was no code of honor on the battlefield. Xiang Ning felt a strong pressure from them. All of them were at least tier six! Was the Shura Tribe this strong?
He suddenly felt a strong surge of Mental power as his Combat Instinct alerted him of the danger.
But it was too late. Xiang Nings thigh was punctured by a piece of rhomboid metal. It didnt completely pierce him, but he realized what it was. The Shura Tribe are also spiritual cultivators?!
This was a difficult fight!
Doge & Chacha's Thoughts
I wonder how the Shura tribe manage to find Earth
