Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 260: Losing Streak
Through the car windows, everyone saw the various artillery positions set up around the military base.
These are all Ruins God Cannons, and the shells are enough to pose a threat to B-level Ruins, and the same is true for the second state.
The army soldiers patrolling along the way are all equipped with rapid-fire ruins-busting guns. The concentrated fire of more than a dozen rapid-fire ruins-busting guns is enough to suppress the B-level ruins with firepower.
Unless it is some beast with strange abilities.
As the vehicles went deeper, everyone felt the solemnity and solemnity of this army.
Soon, after passing through layers of checkpoints along the way, everyone arrived at the military headquarters camp.
Xu Shen and others got off the car and were led into the camp by Ertai, who was wearing a military uniform.
There were more than a dozen two-state soldiers sitting in various places in the camp, some leaning on the pillars beside them. Compared with the upright soldiers outside, these two-state commanders seemed a little casual.
Everyone's eyes met and they looked at each other.
Xu Shen's gaze fell on the middle-aged officer in front of him. The three Golden Ant Medals on his shoulders also represented that he was the supreme commander here.
"Captain of the Sixth Guard, Xu Shen, is under the order of Her Majesty the Queen Ant. Please cooperate with us to quell the dissidents in the Black Light District!"
Xu Shen stood slightly forward and spoke straight to the point.
The middle-aged officer narrowed his eyes and saw that Xu Shen did not show any fear at all. He showed some interest in his eyes and said, "I have heard about Captain Xu's style. He defeated the elite troops of various teams in front of Your Highness. He is indeed brave and capable."
"Commander Chen is too polite. We are not as good as the other lieutenants. We are all serving His Highness."
Seeing the other party greeting him, Xu Shen also responded politely.
Chen Han smiled and said, "I've heard that the guards around His Highness are all strong men in the second state, especially the team leader, who is the best in the second state. They all have the hope of breaking through and then standing up, and being promoted to the king. We rough guys usually learn from each other, and we are already familiar with the skills. We can't wait to play with you."
Xu Shen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Sure enough, it is not so easy to mobilize the troops here.
What he said earlier was very particular, asking them to assist and swear the host and guest.
The other party obviously understood that he was holding the Golden Ant Order, which meant he was following orders from a military order.
"Commander Chen, accidental injuries are inevitable during a sparring match. It would be bad if the harmony is damaged." Xu Shen said meaningfully.
"Captain Xu, is it possible that you don't dare to do it?"
A captain with two golden ants on his shoulders said rudely.
"What are you talking about? We are just afraid of hurting you." Lin Xiao, who had a bad temper, immediately stood up and said.
Otherwise, letting Xu Shen talk to Chen Han's men would lower Xu Shen's status.
"We don't like to talk, we only like to show our ability with our hands." Another lieutenant said, "If it weren't for the restrictions of the military law system, we would also like to become a personal guard."
If the previous words were impolite, this one was a provocation.
It is not so easy to be elected as the queen ant's personal guard.
Feng Qing sneered and said, "Then let's try. Do you dare to compete with me?"
Although they were loyal to Xu Shen, they were also worldly-wise men. As soon as they saw this scene, they knew that without some intimidation today, it would be difficult to get the garrison troops to obey their orders.
Even if the ant queen's golden ant command is used to subdue the other party, it will be useless if the other party pretends to obey but actually disobeys.
"Come if you want."
The man didn't hesitate and just walked away.
Chen Han looked at Xu Shen and asked with interest, "Captain Xu, do you have any objections?"
"It's okay. It just so happens that we, the personal guards, usually deal with some ruined beasts. Few people dare to be so blind as to provoke us. It would be good to let them stretch their muscles." Xu Shen said calmly.
When Chen Han heard the sarcasm in Xu Shen's words, he smiled, but he was not angry. However, a hint of sharpness flashed across his eyes.
Without any orders from the two, Feng Qing and the captain had already left.
The two of them sneaked directly into the ruins. The ruins here were actually an iron fortress-like building. The ruins had been built and were surrounded by solid walls and iron cages, like an arena.
It can not only resist attacks from the outside world, but also serve as a battlefield.
Such an environment is a bit disadvantageous for Feng Qing, as his abilities are more suitable for fighting in complex terrain.
But Feng Qing showed no fear. He was not afraid of these officers as long as he dared to speak.
They are military officers, and their daily work is similar to that of the queen ants, but their personal guards are paid better, after all, they work beside the queen ant.
The two men stood in the ruins and looked at each other. Although the captain spoke arrogantly, his expression became obviously solemn and serious, full of caution after entering the ruins.
whoosh!
The next moment, the officer suddenly attacked Feng Qing.
Feng Qing sneered secretly and released command runes, which penetrated into the ground through his boots. With every step he took, one was buried underground!
Seeing the other party chasing him, he pretended to look solemn and did not dare to fight back. It was as if he was unsure of the other party's ability. He chose to avoid first and then observe.
This response is normal.
But as the chase between the two men lengthened, command runes were continuously buried.
only.
Just after running half a lap, Feng Qing suddenly felt his body stiffen and he stood still, unable to move.
What's going on?
Feng Qing's face suddenly changed, and he looked back. To his relief, the other party did not chase him and also stayed where he was.
But the next moment, Feng Qing's expression changed again, because he found that the posture he was maintaining at the moment... was the same as the other party!
ability?!
Just as Feng Qing was wondering, the captain chasing him showed a contemptuous smile on his cold face and took out a bow from behind!
Feng Qing also made the same movement, but there was no bow behind him, so he just made a false pulling gesture.
Nock the arrow and take aim.
"You can talk, it's not too late to admit defeat."
The captain aimed his arrow at Feng Qing.
From the beginning of the battle to now, the chase was only a dozen steps. With the speed of the two of them, except for the time of observation, it took less than 10 seconds from the moment they started.
This battle is on the verge of life and death!
Feng Qing's face turned pale. There was no doubt that he had been hit by the opponent's ability, but he couldn't figure out why.
"32..." The captain was counting down.
His eyes narrowed and his arrows were fully drawn.
Feng Qing suddenly saw that the other person's foot was stepping on the footprint he left.
He was delighted and quickly detonated his command rune.
However, the command rune seemed to be dead silent and there was no response at all!
Feng Qing's face turned pale. What happened?
The ability is suppressed!
“1!”
whoosh!
The arrow suddenly flew towards him, Feng Qing's pupils dilated, and all his strength surged out like a runaway force. He tried to struggle, but it only caused his body to deviate slightly.
With a swish, the arrow glided across his cheek, leaving a trail of blood!
It wasn't a miss or an evasion, it was intentional on the part of the opponent.
If it was between the eyebrows, Feng Qing would have been shot in the head!
Moreover, this arrow seems to be from a Xu soldier...it contains unknown properties.
Lou Haiyin and others' faces changed and looked a little ugly.
There is no doubt that Feng Qing lost this battle.
Feng Qing was an elite member of the original Second Division. Without knowing his abilities, even the captain would be assassinated by him!
But now he was defeated without any chance to fight back!
I didn't even have the chance to activate my own abilities!
The gap between officers and guards is so huge? !
"Did this bodyguard forget to use his ability?" Chen Han asked with a smile.
Xu Shen narrowed his eyes, stared at the captain, and said calmly: "Maybe I was careless."
"Careless? How about, let's do it again?" Seeing that Xu Shen was being stubborn, Chen Han did not agree with Xu Shen, obviously not giving him a chance to back down.
"Hmph, I'll do it!"
Lin Xiao stepped forward. Although he had a bad temper, he could see that Xu Shen was in trouble.
"Why, do you want to fight me in a round-robin match? Let me have a try, do you dare?"
Another officer stood up and said.
Lin Xiao looked up and sneered, "Come if you want. I'm not afraid of anyone."
"You'll be scared soon." The other party also sneered.
Inside the arena, the captain had already retracted his abilities. Feng Qing felt his body regain movement. Seeing that the other party showed mercy, he looked grim, but without saying anything, he turned around and left the ruins.
On the other hand, the other party put away his bow and arrow, sneered, his disdain evident in his words, and also stepped aside.
Lin Xiao stepped out impatiently, and another officer also entered the world.
"Come!"
Lin Xiao growled, his body expanded, and he directly demonstrated his abilities.
The ability of the strong attack type is difficult to hide, unlike other abilities, which have so many twists and turns, especially his transformation type, which will be seen through once it is released.
roar!
Transformed into a porcupine, Lin Xiao suddenly rushed out.
The extraordinary speed brought by the strong attack system allowed him to rush in front of the opponent almost instantly.
With its huge inflated body and erect sharp hair, it stares at the opponent like a troll, bringing a great sense of oppression.
The expressions of some officers outside the field also became a little more solemn.
Bang!
Lin Xiao threw a violent punch, and his red eyes were enough to show the power of the punch.
The activation of the transformation ability affected his emotions, making him manic and angry, and at the same time he could not feel pain.
Snap!
The sound of broken bones was heard immediately, but it was not from that officer, but from Lin Xiao.
The officer stood still, and the punch on his face was like hitting a diamond rock. The hair on Lin Xiao's arm exploded instantly, and then the joints such as the elbows were dislocated, the bones cracked, and bone spurs pierced the epidermis!
Bloody!
Lin Xiao was shocked and angry, and punched out again.
The other punch hit him in the same way, but his arm was also broken and he was seriously injured.
On the other hand, the officer just watched with a smile from beginning to end, as if he was looking at a clown.
Lou Haiyin and others were all shocked.
Lin Xiao's strength is enough to block the wall. Even if the opponent has defensive ability, it can't be so abnormal, right? !
The ability of the strong attack type to attack the defensive type is like attacking the turtle shell. It can be considered as restraint and suppression, but the result is the opposite.
"Give up your defeat," the officer said frivolously.
Lin Xiao's eyes turned red, and he raised his foot and kicked out sideways with a roar.
With a bang, the huge calf swept across the opponent's waist, but the officer's body did not move at all. Instead, Lin Xiao's calf exploded, the hair fell off, and the bones bent.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Xiao's hands and feet were crippled.
The officer also took action and kicked Lin Xiao in the chest. He lost the support of one leg, lost balance and fell to the ground.
The officer then jumped on him and punched him in the face, causing Lin Xiao's face to bleed.
Such a huge gap made Lou Haiyin, Xue Mei and others change color.
Lin Xiao is not weak, but the opponent's ability is too weird and too scary.
Chen Han looked at the beating in the arena and just smiled at Xu Shen.
Xu Shen didn't wait any longer and said, "Okay."
The beating continued in the venue.
Chen Han chuckled and said, "That's enough. Just a sparring match. Don't fight to death."
The officer in the field then stopped, jumped up, spat on Lin Xiao , and turned away gracefully.
Lin Xiao was lying on the ground, looking extremely embarrassed.
Xue Mei looked at Xu Shen and got Xu Shen's permission before walking into the field. He used his blood ability to heal Lin Xiao's wound. Although the fracture could not be restored, the bleeding could be controlled.
When others saw Xue Mei's methods, they just thought he was a reconstruction-type healer.
"Damn..." Lin Xiao was dragged out and his ability was exposed. His face looked ugly, but he kept cursing. It was obvious that he was still unconvinced, but he also knew that he was no match for his opponent.
"These guys are too strong."
Lou Haiyin sat next to Xu Shen and spoke in a low voice.
The continuous defeats and the huge disparity in strength made them feel a little afraid of these officers.
Xu Shen didn't say anything, but turned his head to look at Feng Qing: "Do you understand why you lost?"
Feng Qing was stunned, hesitated, and said: "The other party's ability seems to be to control people through footprints."
This was his guess, but he couldn't be sure.
Xu Shen nodded slightly: "The triggering medium should be the overlap of three to five steps of footprints, and he can control your body. In simple terms, you can't leave obvious footprints in front of him."
Feng Qing was startled and couldn't help asking, "How did you know?"
"observe."
From the moment the battle started, Xu Shen noticed that the pursuing captain was following Feng Qing's footsteps. Given Feng Qing's ability, this was tantamount to walking into a trap.
But the opponent's ability seems to have extremely strong suppression when the footprints overlap, not only suppressing the body, but also the ability.
This point just happened to restrain Feng Qing.
"What about me?"
Lin Xiao, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but ask when he saw Xu Shen speak.
Several people looked at Xu Shen, and Xu Shen thought: "It should be a rebound of power."
"Power rebound?"
Lin Xiao was stunned, then his eyes widened and his mind suddenly became clear.
The others also showed a look of enlightenment when they heard this.
Although it cannot be confirmed, it is indeed... very likely.
"In the case of two states, the abilities are varied, but the strength of the abilities will not be so extreme, unless the abilities happen to be restrained." Xu Shen said.
Everyone nodded and looked at Xu Shen with more awe. In just a short moment, he could see so many things. Xu Shen's insight was terrifying.
Chen Han and others also heard what Xu Shen and others were talking about. The faces of the two victorious officers changed slightly, and their expressions looked a little unnatural.
Seeing the changes in their expressions made Lou Haiyin even more certain that what Xu Shen said was correct.
"No wonder, I told you I'm not that weak!" Lin Xiao slapped his thigh, then covered his hands and legs in pain, groaning.
Feng Qing's previous depressed mood was also comforted. He could not be blamed for his abilities being restrained. It was just bad luck.
He also felt a little more admiration for Xu Shen.
"But the problem is that you are too unlucky." Xu Shen's eyes flashed slightly.
Hearing Xu Shen's words, everyone was stunned and suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.
"You go and try it." Xu Shen said to Lou Haiyin beside him.
Lou Haiyin immediately understood Xu Shen's idea, nodded slightly, and stood up and said, "I'll do it, who dares?"
