Chapter 1148: Hunt!
Inside the Merlot Battlefield, there were all sorts of strange energies clashing and mixing with one another. The moment Yue Zhong entered the place, he could sense as though he had emerged in a different world, with different rules and law. He turned around, and could no longer see the path he came from, nor Annie who had entered with him.
All of a sudden, a strange piece of white jade engraved with runes landed on his hands. As he grabbed it, he could sense Annie's aura, as a message transmitted directly through it, "This is a jade token. With it, you can sense my location, and can even use it to communicate. It would not cause any spiritual fluctuations or energy reverberations. If there's nothing, try not to contact me."
Yue Zhong laughed lightly, and kept the token. The next moment, he waved his hands and donned on the Stealth Armor.
At the moment he put it on, he disappeared entirely, without a single trace of his presence, causing the invisible Annie beside him to be shocked as well, "He truly has extraordinary methods. Without the jade token, I would not be able to tell where he was. No wonder he has such confidence to hunt them down! However, even if he has the stealth, can he cope with the combat?"
"I wonder if the Merlot Battlefield would affect those nanobugs of mine. Those are precious tracking devices from the Mech Kingdom, if they're destroyed, it would be problematic!"
Yue Zhong glanced at his watch, and noticed that there was still an update on the location of the bugs.
"Got it!"
Yue Zhong then zeroed in on their location, the corners of his mouth lifting into a smile, and he quickly shot towards them.
Within the Merlot Battlefield, under the terrifying strength of the True Gods of the past, regions had been carved out, but their energies were relatively stable. Within each area, a unique biological system had emerged and thrived, housing numerous life forms.
Inside a mountain range, 3 men and 1 women were standing at the precipice, looking within, their eyes filled with wild joy.
One of them, a young man with golden hair and blue eyes, decked in white-silver armor and a huge broadsword on his back, spoke up in excitement, "This is the fluctuation of a True God's will!! This is great, it will be a perfect cultivation ground for our wills. As long as we can withstand the pressure and comprehend the lingering will left behind, we could forge our wills and when we break through to the Type 9 realm in the future, it would be beneficial to our foundations!"
Another small and scrawny man who stood only at 1.42m, looking like a small kid, chuckled, "Our luc is pretty good, to be able to come across this stable True God's will. If it was too wild, we would be unable to utilize it, in fact, we might die under the might. Such a stable area is truly getting rare."
The only woman of the group, who had 2 ponytails and an ordinary figure, wielding a huge sword on her back as well, looked towards the lead male with a hint of fervor, "This is all due to Maruf. If he did not insist on checking this area, we would not have discovered this location."
At this moment, the last male, who had been keeping silent all this time while surveying the environment warily shouted out with a crestfallen expression, "Watch out!!"
Right after he shouted, he had already waved his hands and caused a number of energy shields to appear. At the same time, he had pulled out a round mechanical plate, tossing it to form a huge mechanical wall to protect them.
At that moment, the 30 Green-faced Ghosts appeared in a flash, and slammed into the mechanical barrier viciously.
With a loud bang, the mechanical barrier collapsed, not even slowing them down in the slightest.
The defense of the barrier was supposed to be shocking, capable of withstanding even the strikes of a peak-Type 8 powerhouse. However, with the joint efforts of the 30 Green-faced Ghosts, their combined might was terrifying enough to destroy the barrier.
"Haha, go to hell!"
The leader, Ye Cha Ghost, had laughed out savagely the moment the barrier was crushed, and reached out to grab the Holy Son who had thrown out the plate, and squeezed viciously.
"Ah!!!"
The Holy Son screamed out in agony, as blood poured out of all his orifices, every single bone and organ within him crushed. There was an intense look of pain, suffering, and despair at the moment of his death.
"Good, good! This is the expression, it's just too savoury!!" Ye Cha Ghost cackled, and tossed the corpse into his mouth, his sharp teeth closing down and gibbled up the Holy Son.
The short and scrawny Holy Son screamed out in fear, as he was grabbed by 2 of the Green-faced Ghosts, "No!!!"
The 2 Ghosts grinned evilly and grabbed him at one end each, before tugging with all their might, directly tearing the Holy Son in two.
At the moment the small Holy Son was killed, another 2 Green-faced Ghosts flew out, and gobbled up his spine.
Maruf was the only peak-Type 8 powerhouse within this group, and due to the blockade of the other 2, he had gained some time to react, as he waved his hands and 36 golden pearls appeared.
The moment the 36 pearls materialized, and released a powerful radiance that enveloped Maruf.
This particular treasure was called the 36-Scorpio Golden Protection. Among the Human Race, it was the strongest defensive treasure. Once activated, even a half-step Type 9 powerhouse would not be able to break it in a short time.
As the Green-faced Ghosts continued to slam into the shield, it only served to create temporary dents, and there did not seem to be any way they could break through in the short future.
Water Domain!
The eyes of the lady narrowed, as she activated her trump card, causing powerful water bodies to gush out from her, wrapping the surroundings.
"Domain? Do you think that only you humans know Domains? Break for me!"
One of the Holy Son-grade Green-faced Ghosts had a vicious look, as he roared out with mad laughter and emitted a powerful Ruthless Domain, that was shrouded in red, which slammed into the Holy Daughter's Water Domain.
At that moment, 5 others also laughed, and revealed another 5 Ruthless Domains, slamming the Water Domain viciously.
Wth 6 powerful domains assaulting the Water Domain of an equal level, it did not take long for the Water Domain to be obliterated completely.
Just as the domain collapsed, one Green-faced Ghost shot forward to the chance and seize the Holy Daughter when she was defenseless, and gripped her tightly.
She revealed a look of despair as she screamed, the majority of her bones already broken, "AH!!!! Save me!!! Maruf!! Save me!!"
Maruf took a look at the Holy Daughter who had always held him in high regard, Xiangma Hui, and his eyes turned red, releasing a roar that sounded like a wounded beast, "Damn bastards!!! Xiao Hui!!! Bastards!!!"
However, while the 36-Scorpio Golden Protection had an amazing defense, the person within was also considered trapped, unable to move to save or attack anyone. This was a sort of last-resort, if Maruf had not been forced to the edge, he would not have used this. Once utilized, he could not save his friends or comrades.
The Green-faced Ghost grabbing Xiangma Hui looked at the struggling Holy Daughter, and he revealed a cruel smile, opening his jaws and was about to bite down.
The lower half of Xiangma Hui's body had been crushed, her domain broken, and her strength already 90% sapped. There was no way she could defend herself, and as she stared at the incoming jaws, her eyes were filled with despair, her tears and snot flowing as she sobbed, "No!! No!!! Save me!! Somebody!!"
Peng!
As the Green-faced Ghost was about to swallow Xiangma Hui, his head suddenly exploded as though he was struck by a huge hammer of over a billion tonnes. Red and white matter, as well as its ugly countenance was blasted to the side.
The death of that Green-faced Ghost seemed to be trigger a chain-effect, as the Green-faced Ghosts beside him also had their heads blasted apart. In just a few breaths, 4 of them had died mysteriously.
With their deaths, the strongest among them, Ye Cha Ghost, had a fearful countenance as he roared, "Enemy attack!! There's an enemy here!!! He's in stealth, and is very strong!! Watch out!!"
