"Thousands of miles away, at the nine o'clock position, the Earth Roar cluster is gathering energy!"
Shattered Star's voice was incredibly calm, like the most sophisticated radar, constantly reporting its position.
"receive."
Qianli responded in a deep voice, and his pulse arm instantly lit up with complex light patterns. The high-energy electrical pulse was guided to a special storage chamber and immediately ionized into the air in front of him.
"Buzz!"
An energy shield emitting high-temperature plasma arc light suddenly unfolded, perfectly blocking the crimson energy pulses ejected by several earth roars.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The energy pulse struck the plasma shield, creating violent ripples and sparks, but was ultimately blocked.
But Qianli's arm trembled slightly, and he let out a muffled groan. He gritted his teeth and persevered, "Hold on, we must buy time for the others."
Name: Qianli.
Awakening Ability: Plasma Energy.
He releases high-energy electrical pulses through his nerves, which can form a high-temperature plasma shield in the ionized air, instantly neutralizing deadly threats.
Qianli's arm is equipped with a special pulse metal arm guard that can instantly generate a sturdy high-temperature plasma shield, primarily for defense and currently unusable for offense.
"Silent one, what's the situation at the flank passage?"
Shanda stood at the forefront like a rock, his round shield slamming heavily into the ground once more, blocking the attack of a large snake-dog, and roaring without turning his head.
The taciturn man didn't hear a thing. He completely abandoned his defense, his fists covered in thick rock and keratin. Like a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex charging into the beast horde, he smashed the Devouring Beast into a pulp with a single punch. Every kick he delivered sent the snake-dog flying. It was pure, violent aesthetic output.
On the other side, Xia Dou had already put on those special mechanical glasses, and a stream of light flashed on the lenses as she quickly searched for and locked onto her target.
"I choose you!"
She suddenly raised her hand and pointed at an exceptionally strong, mutated earth roar in the herd.
"Its signal is very erratic, I'll give it another push!"
Through the glasses, she focused her mental energy intensely, forcibly connecting to and interfering with the spiritual core signal of the earth howl.
Just as the earth-roaring creature was about to gather its energy again, its movement suddenly froze. Then it became extremely frenzied and began attacking its own kind without warning, swatting a snake-dog away with one paw.
Although the disruption only lasted a few seconds before being broken free by the powerful instinct of the Earth Roar, this brief chaos successfully disrupted the pack's coordinated attack, creating a precious respite for the team.
"Oh dear, that's still too much of a stretch."
Xia Dou snorted softly and rubbed her temples, clearly indicating that this interference was quite a burden for her.
Name: Xia Dou (female).
Awakening ability: Mind control.
Xia Dou's awakened ability allows her to control the actions of the Devouring Beasts to a certain extent, but she can only control the weaker ones.
After putting on her mechanical glasses, the glasses automatically scan and lock onto the nearby Mana Ecological Terminal, which is the Spirit Core inside the Devouring Beast.
By establishing a link with the Spirit Core, Xia Dou is able to interfere with or even suppress the source signals of the Devouring Beasts themselves, which can be understood as their instinctive consciousness, and forcibly implant his own command signals, thereby achieving control over specific Devouring Beasts.
The Devouring Beasts controlled by Xia Dou will attack their former companions without hesitation and carry out her orders like loyal guards.
"Shandong University!"
Suddenly, Bai Yuekui seized the opportunity and immediately gave the order.
"Okay, boss."
The mountain roared like a battle cry.
His muscles were bulging, and he pounded the shield with the hammer, one rhythmic blow after another.
"Boom!!!"
The special structure on the back of the shield was immediately activated, generating a strong bio-resonance shockwave that spread violently forward in a fan shape.
This shockwave was not a purely physical attack, but rather it could directly interfere with the core of the Devouring Beast.
The approaching pack of beasts, whether snakes, dogs, or earth howls, all momentarily froze and became disoriented, as if they had lost their sense of direction.
Even the transformed Earth Roar that had just broken free from Xia Dou's control was momentarily dizzy.
Shan Da, this burly man, was wearing a specially crafted set of equipment; his ability was spirit manipulation.
Spiritual Induction: Primarily uses mechanical devices to extract and release condensed energy from the body to attract Devouring Beasts to a specific area.
This ability is activated by the character Shan Da through a spirit-inducing device, manifesting as the release of special energy fluctuations. Xu Tong then uses a cylindrical collector to capture this energy, with a disc containing complex symbols in the center of the device.
Once the collection is complete, the device switches to transmitter mode, emitting energy into the wilderness, ultimately generating an energy cluster that strongly attracts the Devouring Beasts.
This burst mode consumes a massive amount of physical strength and life essence, making it unsustainable for prolonged combat.
After the battle, Shandong University needs to consume a large amount of energy-rich food and rest for a long time to recover.
As for the shield shockwave, this is Shan Da's core skill. By charging forward, the shield can generate a powerful kinetic energy shockwave, which can effectively repel medium-sized Devouring Beasts and even destroy terrain obstacles.
Once activated, the bio-resonance device attached to the shield can generate a high-frequency wave that interferes with the core perception of the Devouring Beast, causing it to stop moving, fall into a brief state of dizziness or confusion, and create an opportunity for teammates to attack its vitals.
"It's now!"
No further words were needed; the shattering arrow high above had already left its bow.
This time it wasn't an explosive arrow, but a specially made high-penetration spiral arrow. The arrowhead was wrapped in azure source light, emitting a sharp whistling sound. Taking advantage of the opening exposed by the mutated earth roar in its dazed state, it was shot into its open maw with perfect accuracy, penetrating straight into its interior.
"boom!"
With a muffled thud, blue blood and energy spurted from the Earth Roar's mouth and nose.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qianli withdrew his shield and stepped back half a step to catch his breath. The overheated parts of the pulse arm emitted a faint sound.
"That was close... we almost overloaded."
The fighting has temporarily eased, and the momentum of the second wave of attacks has been dampened.
The five-person team stood back to back, panting, watching their surroundings warily.
Sui Xing remained on high ground, Qian Li protected her not far away, Shan Da stood on the outermost edge with a shield, Xia Dou recovered her strength slightly inside, and Gua Yan charged around recklessly.
Their teamwork was seamless, and everyone's abilities were fully utilized.
"Clear the remnants, maintain formation, and gradually move towards the gap on the left."
Bai Yuekui's voice rang out again, pointing out the team's next course of action.
The group immediately complied, stepping over the remains of the Devouring Beast and moving towards the new battlefront.
Although the battle is far from over, the team members' teamwork and confidence have reached new heights after this wave of intense impact.
During a lull in the fierce battle, the second wave of beast tides was temporarily repelled, but the team members were not entirely unscathed.
"Uh!"
Qianli let out a muffled groan. He had just used his pulse arm to overload in order to block the salvo from the three-headed earth roar. Although he successfully defended, the powerful impact still injured his internal organs through the shield. A trace of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, and his arm holding the shield trembled slightly, making it difficult for him to fully deploy the shield again for a short time.
Chapter 126 The Power of Drinking Songs
Almost simultaneously, a cry for help came from the flank.
It's summer beans!
A cunning spiky eel suddenly shot out a bone spike from the shadows. Although the taciturn woman pushed it away in time, avoiding a fatal blow, the bone spike still grazed her arm, leaving a deep wound that exposed the bone.
The toxins from the serotonin spread rapidly, instantly turning her entire arm a dark purple-black color. The excruciating pain made her face turn deathly pale, and she could barely hold onto the control glasses in her hand.
"Xia Dou!"
Qianli turned around abruptly and said anxiously.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan activated his thrusters at full power, instantly arriving in front of Xia Dou and knocking away the Devouring Beast that pounced on him.
"die!"
Chen Yuan let out a cold shout, and the nanoparticles in his right arm instantly flowed and reorganized into a high-speed rotating spiral impact drill. With a terrifying buzzing sound, it delivered a powerful uppercut, piercing through the jaw of the mutated snake-dog, crushing half of its head, and penetrating directly through its core.
[Points +1200...]
At this moment, Jiu Ge, who had been protecting Xia Dou from the rear of the group, also rushed towards Xia Dou's direction.
However, she was too slow, and the surrounding Devouring Beasts pounced on her. Chen Yuan, like a firefighter, once again flashed forward and helped Jiu Ge resolve all the dangers.
"Thank you."
Jiu Ge breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully.
"Go about your business!"
Without turning his head, Chen Yuan raised his left palm and blasted away the Earth Roar that was trying to launch a sneak attack from the other side.
Without the slightest hesitation, Jiu Ge rushed to Xia Dou's side, whose injuries were critical.
"Sister Jiuge...it hurts so much..."
Upon seeing the person who arrived, Xia Dou's eyes welled up with tears from the pain, and her voice trembled with sobs.
"Don't be afraid, it will be fine soon."
Jiu Ge gently comforted her, first quickly checking the wound on Xia Dou's arm with a furrowed brow.
"It's the venom of the spiny eel; we must first stop the spread of scarlet pigment."
After saying that, she took a deep breath and gently cupped Xia Dou's pale face in her hands.
Jiuge bent down, her expression focused and devout, like a compassionate goddess, and gently pressed her lips to Xiadou's forehead.
That was not a simple kiss, but a manifestation of her life essence resonance and transformative ability.
The moment their lips touched, a rich green glow surged into Xia Dou's body through the point of contact.
Xia Dou's body trembled violently, and she let out a soft groan as if she had been relieved.
The horrifying purplish-black color on her arm faded rapidly at a visible speed, and the flesh at the wound site writhed and healed wildly, leaving not even a scar.
The intense pain receded like the tide, replaced by a warm and comfortable feeling, and even the mental energy that had been depleted was largely restored.
"Ah... Sister Jiuge's ability is still so comfortable, like soaking in a warm spring, it doesn't hurt at all," Xia Dou thought to herself.
After treating Xia Dou, under Chen Yuan's protection, she turned and went to Qianli's side.
