Chapter 297
The commander-in-chief was determined and made a prompt decision to carefully select an elite guard team.
These guards have been through hundreds of battles and have been tempered in countless cruel battlefields. Their combat experience is as rich as fine wine that has been precipitated for many years, deep and mellow;
Their equipment is even more sophisticated. The special anti-fog armor they wear is made of the most advanced star steel alloy of the Xingyao Saint Clan.
This alloy is tougher than you can imagine, comparable to the protective outer wall of an interstellar fortress.
Not only that, it also cleverly incorporates crystal ore powder that can cleverly neutralize the erosion energy of the magic fog.
These crystal ores are precious and rare, and are the "treasures" that the scientific research team has found after exploring countless mysterious planets and going through hardships.
At the same time, the surface of the armor is engraved with ancient rune formations, and those runes are tortuous and mysterious.
It was like a mysterious code from an ancient interstellar civilization, flashing with a faint blue light all the time, just like the guardian stars in the dark night, interweaving layer by layer into an invisible but tough guardian spirit shield.
It was enough to resist the strange erosion of the Devouring Demon Mist that made people unable to defend themselves, as well as the violent impact of various unknown energies.
The detection equipment they carried was the "crystallization" of the scientific research team's countless efforts and day and night research and improvement.
It integrated microscopic quantum sensing, which can accurately capture extremely subtle and almost non-existent energy particle fluctuations, to macroscopic energy spectrum scanning.
It was like a giant net, with multiple functions that could take in the energy distribution and fluctuations of the entire area.
As soon as I stepped into the Devouring Demon Mist, the whole world was instantly crushed by an invisible giant hand and thrown into the abyss of chaos.
The thick mist, like an insoluble ink, was like a materialized dark surging wave, rolling and surging wantonly.
Wherever he passed, the light was ruthlessly swallowed up, and the surroundings fell into a deadly darkness. The visible range was drastically compressed, pitifully small, like a palm-sized square inch of space.
At this time, the only thing that could be heard was the slightly heavy breathing of the guards with a tense rhythm.
And the "ding-dong-dong" echoes from the slight collision of each other's armors, which seemed particularly clear and abrupt in this silent and terrifying darkness.
The commander-in-chief quickly turned on the perspective amplification device on the armor's eyes, and the faint green light struggled to penetrate the gap of the eye mask, like the faint light emitted by fireflies in the dark night, trying its best to penetrate the thick lead fog.
But what came into view were some shadowy, blurred, and distorted outlines that seemed to be there and not there.
It was like a sleeping giant beast from ancient times, quietly lurking in the dark, spying on the intruders. The chill ran straight up the spine, making people's scalps numb.
"Everyone should be alert and maintain a tight formation, just like a pack of wolves huddled together for warmth. The shield should be turned to maximum power, and step forward steadily. Don't panic!"
He deliberately lowered his voice and issued instructions through the communicator, but when the voice echoed in the magic fog, it was pulled out of a thread of strange noises like ghosts crying and wolves howling, making the already tense atmosphere even more tense.
Everyone moved forward carefully and cautiously, but the detector seemed to be cursed by the magic fog, and it made a frequent "sizzling" sound.
The data on the screen was jumping wildly and chaotically, like a group of wild horses running wildly without any rules.
It was as if the magic fog was baring its fangs and claws there, wantonly mocking their futile efforts.
The commander-in-chief frowned, his eyebrows twisted into a knot, and his inner anxiety was like a raging fire, burning him anxiously.
Just when he was concentrating and his nerves were tense to the extreme, he keenly noticed.
, there was a hidden and violent energy fluctuation in front of him, just like the eye of the storm was quietly condensing, and the center of the vortex-like energy vortex exuded a terrifying dangerous atmosphere.
"Be alert, there is an abnormal situation ahead, all members enter combat status!"
He shouted in a low voice, his voice was steady and powerful, and the guards moved at the sound, and their movements were as agile as well-trained special forces. They quickly changed their formations and formed an airtight defense circle in the blink of an eye.
The weapon in his hand was unsheathed with a "swish", and the edge flashed with cold light in the mist, like a meteor in the dark night.
When approaching the source of the energy fluctuation, an ancient ruin suddenly came into view.
The commander-in-chief was full of curiosity and planned to get closer to carefully observe and interpret the mysteries behind these mysterious patterns.
But at this critical moment, there was a loud "boom" from behind, and the energy exploded.
A figure was wrapped in dazzling light and surging wind that seemed to overturn the world, like a meteor falling out of control, straightIt rushed towards them.
"It's a Netherworld monster, and it's a demon king!"
The commander-in-chief recognized the other party's identity instantly with his eyes bright, as if he was an explorer who saw a treasure, and shouted excitedly
"A monster of this level must have a Netherworld magic bead hidden on it. We can't miss the opportunity, so we'll take it and do it!"
In the depths of the magic fog, a towering figure like a mountain slowly emerged.
The magic fog surrounding it was like a materialized black silk, dancing and swaying wantonly, exuding a suffocating pressure like a mountain pressing down on one's head.
Its body was like a human, but it was a little more weird and twisted, and there were three sharp horns on its head.
The light flickered, and every ray of light seemed to be able to capture people's souls, making people shudder;
The arms were as thick as towering ancient trees, hanging down to the ground, and the claws on the fingertips flickered with cold light, like a peerless weapon, showing its sharp edge.
The commander-in-chief's pupils shrank suddenly, and his expression was as solemn as the sky before a storm, but he could not hide the excitement in his eyes, as if he was an adventurer who was about to open a treasure chest.
"This guy must have as many magic beads in his body as stars. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Do your best to capture him and don't let any of them go!"
The commander's exclamation echoed in the magic fog, but was instantly swallowed up by the roar of the monster and the roar of the energy collision, and disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, the monster seemed to be driven by some invisible but extremely terrifying fear. He completely ignored the people chasing and blocking behind him and fled madly into the distance. Every step he took made the ground tremble and shake, and the magic fog was stirred up and surged around him, just like spilled ink, pouring freely.
"Chase, never let it run away, this duck is in hand, never let it fly!"
The commander gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words from his teeth. After giving the order, his figure was the first to eject like a spring, like a black lightning. Seeing this, the guards did not dare to slack off at all, and followed closely behind, with hurried but orderly steps.
Everyone shuttled forward in this chaotic magic fog, and the detector flashed wildly, trying to lock the trace of the monster's escape, but the magic fog seemed to be alive, with its own consciousness, constantly interfering with the signal transmission. The light spots on the screen from time to time were the faint breath image of the monster, like a candle in the wind, erratic and elusive.
"Be alert, there are things in the dark, be careful!"
As soon as the words fell, a ghostly black shadow flashed out from the gap of the cliffs of the canyon like lightning, with an extremely fast speed, leaving only a blurred black line. Before everyone could even see its appearance clearly, the black shadow was wrapped in a majestic black energy, with a destructive momentum, and slammed into the monster fiercely.
The monster's huge body was knocked out and flew sideways, like a kite with a broken string, hitting the valley wall, rocks collapsed, and dust flew.
It spurted out a large mouthful of black blood, and the magic mist at the wound surged wildly, as if resisting some kind of fatal erosion. The scene was extremely tragic.
The commander looked closely and saw that the black shadow had a slender figure, and the magic mist lingering around it was several times thicker than the sky-swallowing magic mist.
The face was blurred, as if covered by a layer of black gauze, only the eyes flashed with two bloody lights, like a soul-catching messenger from the abyss of hell, exuding a creepy dead silence.
"What the hell is this?"
The commander muttered to himself, unconsciously clenching the light spear in his hand, and his knuckles turned white due to the force.
The guards were even more terrified, and the light of the shield trembled slightly due to tension, like a candle in the wind, swaying unsteadily.
This mysterious black shadow seemed not to see everyone. It was like a top hunter who locked on to its prey, with a clear goal, and pounced on the injured monster again.
The claws stretched out, the cold light flashed, as fast as lightning, and it pierced the chest of the demon general directly. The demon general roared in pain and waved his arms to fight back, but in front of the black shadow, it was like an ant trying to shake a tree, with pitiful power, and could not shake the opponent at all.
The shadow pulled his hand away suddenly, and fist-sized netherworld magic beads emitting strange light were pulled out.
There were nearly a hundred of them!
The moment the magic beads left the demon general's body, the surrounding magic mist gathered towards them frantically, forming a black vortex. The strong suction caused everyone to lose their balance and they were almost sucked into it. The situation was out of control for a while.
Seeing this, the commander made up his mind and shouted with gritted teeth:
"We can't let it succeed. Grab the magic beads, quickly!"
