night.
On the left flank of the main force, a group of flying, ghost-faced spiders were airdropped.
They are numerous and their flight is cumbersome.
It has a chubby gourd body, two pairs of dragonfly wings, and eight legs.
Like bombers, you can hear them flying from a great distance.
However, because it was an arrangement to challenge the world, it appeared directly from high altitude, bypassing the guard network that Wei Huan had set up on the outermost edge of the legion.
The troops were airdropped over the area with the highest concentration of troops.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
"Boom!"
"Puff puff puff!"
The fallen ghost-faced spiders rained down like rain, each one bigger than a car.
When it lands on the ground, a spider can step on eight vehicles, its long legs tipped like sharpened sickles, slowly and fiercely piercing into the vehicle shells.
The ever-burning headlights illuminated the spider's terrifying and ferocious body, as well as the monsters that continued to fall from the sky.
They challenged the world and made a big splash.
This group of ghost-faced spiders numbered over a thousand, making it a super-large tribe.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"Activate all vehicle defense systems! Professionals, do not leave your vehicles!"
"It's a Ghost-Faced Spider! There's a big one here! It's very strong!!"
They came with the mission of killing the challengers, and upon arrival they transformed into reaping sickles, using their long legs to cut down the challengers' vehicles.
The electric current flowing through the defense system caused the demon-faced spider to twitch incessantly, emitting bursts of burnt aroma.
The serrated edges rolling on the vehicle's exterior cut these crispy spider legs into small pieces of large bone sticks, revealing the thick, fragrant white marrow inside.
A twisted figure leaped in the darkness, its body posture unlike that of a human. Its upper limbs were excessively long, and with each leap, it preferred to start from a completely crouched position before springing up.
Its excessively long claws grabbed a severed spider leg from the ground and, without a second thought, stuffed it into its mouth.
The crispy outer shell paired with the rich, fragrant bone marrow makes for a delightful bite-sized experience; the roasted spider legs are a joy to savor.
The raid was fierce, with both sides being very evenly matched and exchanging blows.
Some vehicles were breached by the spider, and the next second the spider was killed by the vehicle next to it.
Overall, more ghost spiders die than humans.
With vehicles providing cover, humanity can sustain its attacks and avoid losing the battle, at least for the time being.
With the addition of some elite vehicles, the battle was a close contest.
Until a thunderous buzzing sound appeared overhead.
Where the lights converged, the silhouette of a giant spider was revealed.
Its size was more than ten times that of an ordinary ghost-faced spider.
Even without its long legs, its gourd-shaped body is over 50 meters long, making it look like an aerial fortress as it descends with an imposing presence.
Someone was right beneath this giant spider, letting out a desperate scream.
"BOSS!"
"Help!!"
"It could easily destroy my car!"
Where is our leader's car?
Why haven't we seen the leader's car after all this time?
Actually, it wasn't that long.
The time frame was less than three minutes, but the intense battle stretched out the perception of time.
Besides, the battlefield is so large, there must be a leader's vehicle, it's just that some people simply didn't see it.
It was only at this moment that the situation became critical.
Level 2 vehicles are too fragile.
Those who try to take advantage of the chaos are playing with their lives.
Now it's time for them to take responsibility for their decisions.
Some cars were blown up, leaving no trace of the people inside. Before long, the challenge world will swallow them up along with their vehicles.
Some cars were crushed and deformed, forcing the challengers inside to escape.
But even the car couldn't protect him. A second-tier professional facing a level-three highway monster head-on would surely die much faster than if he were in the car.
Before the BOSS's long leg could even touch the person, the wind pressure alone blasted him into a bloody mist.
Run!
"Help!"
"Aaaaaaahh...
Screams echoed throughout the room.
Luckily, they escaped the vortex of battle by driving away.
Unfortunately, the vehicle was severely deformed and unable to move, leaving it only to await its demise.
Just then, a green light streaked past overhead.
The green light fell on the spider boss, like a viscous liquid that could not be separated once it was absorbed.
Meanwhile, behind the green light, there were some thread-like objects being rapidly tightened.
The struggling spider boss was instantly brought under control in the area where it was stuck.
Immediately afterwards.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Another burst of green light, carrying these silken threads, flew out from behind and above the spider boss, landing on it.
Until a spider leg was about to pierce through the tank, the last joint was also adhered.
Such a huge BOSS, and it just stood there frozen on the ground.
A gigantic BOSS, with green vision.
On such an extremely dark and tragic night.
It was like a puppet show, where the terrifying boss, illuminated by lights, absurdly became the protagonist.
Only then did some people come to their senses from that earth-shattering battle.
Their gaze followed the silk thread, then turned back, and what they saw was a scene that shocked them even more.
I don't know when it started, but a tall and majestic white bone fortress has been built behind me.
It is a hundred meters high, built in layers.
The green threads emerge from the very tip of these bone fortresses.
It's as if it's trying to fight against the opponent's strength, so it goes down from sharp to thick, digging deeply into the ground.
The bunker, built from countless bones, looks sinister and terrifying, yet it exudes an indescribable sense of power.
Eeriely gorgeous, yet powerful.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of facehuggers crawled out from behind the bone fortress.
Each of them is about half a meter in size, moving close to the ground, making no sound as they silently move forward.
spread.
They bypassed the vehicles, bypassed the terrified challengers, and finally climbed onto the Spider Boss's body.
There were also some facehuggers that moved forward upside down on the silk threads.
They appeared on the spider boss like blooming white flowers.
It's beautiful, yet heartbreaking.
It is a vicious parasitic flower.
Invade, spread, devour.
The spider boss's shell was hard to break, but the facehugger found a broken leg.
Like a weak point breached by a virus, facehuggers burrowed into the spider boss's body like a flowing stream.
The spider boss, which had been relatively stable and was simply struggling against the undead army, suddenly began to fight desperately.
Some of the silk threads were torn, and some of the bone fortresses were destroyed.
But each time, as soon as one part is lost, three or four green orbs of light will appear.
This ensures that it has absolutely no chance of breaking free.
The undead army is righteous and powerful, relying on its combat strength far exceeding its limits to crush any opponent.
We absolutely do not consider cost-effectiveness.
They don't value resource conservation.
If I can kill you with one punch, I'll beat you up and crush you into a pulp!
This tactic involves suspending, trapping, and binding the boss, while simultaneously allowing insects to burrow inside, effectively hollowing out the boss from the inside.
It gave everyone who saw it goosebumps.
Although I know I shouldn't, at this moment I still feel a little sorry for this big boss.
If he were any smaller, he wouldn't be in such a terrible state.
The swallowing proceeded quietly and silently.
Quiet?
It was only then that some people realized that the fighting had stopped at some point.
Not only was the Spider Boss controlled, but the Ghost-Faced Spiders in the space also seemed to have disappeared.
On the battlefield, all that could be seen were the skeletons of running wolves and ghostly crows flying haphazardly yet in an orderly fashion in the air.
This army of undead, which appeared out of nowhere and at some unknown time, quickly took control of the battlefield.
Chaos seems like a thing of the past.
So, is this the strength of Wei Huan's undead army?
Yes, that's the ability of a true leader.
With a single move, one can suppress an entire battlefield.
Another leader is being born among humans.
...
"Glug glug".
"Cool, cool."
Xu Qingqiang, who was digging and eating spider meat and getting a little bored, suddenly stopped chewing.
He whirled around, his bloodshot eyes wide, and met the gaze of a facehugger crawling toward him from behind.
Contrary to expectations, there was no dramatic spark between them; both sides remained calm.
Xu Qingqiang was from a friendly unit, and the facehugger had no hostility towards him.
In Xu Qingqiang's eyes, the facehugger was so weak that he had no desire to eat it.
They exchanged a calm glance.
Then, with the last bit of his sanity remaining, Xu Qingqiang stepped aside to make way for the facehugger.
The facehugger bypassed Xu Qingqiang and charged deeper into the area.
Xu Qingqiang did not protect the food.
He didn't want to eat anymore.
And I saw facehuggers
This reminded him of another delicious food.
Hehehe!
Black sesame paste!!
Xu Qingqiang broke the spider's leg on the spot, jumped into the darkness, and became a black shadow, shuttling through the battlefield.
No...no?
No black sesame paste?
This time, Wei Huan did not release any undead or zombies, so naturally there was no "black sesame paste".
Xu Qingqiang's craving for food gradually caused him to lose control.
Until he saw a huge wolf with bone spurs all over its body.
Although... they're all bones.
The bone was clean, and it even had a jade-like patina from being handled so much.
But when Xu Qingqiang ate, he never looked at the amount of meat.
He's consuming energy.
The body of a living organism contains a wealth of energy.
If it can be the right size and have a high energy content, that would be even better.
The reason he gave up eating the spider boss was...
It's because it's too big.
His stomach isn't bottomless; it has a limit. Once he reaches that limit, he can't consume much more energy, so it's just junk food to him.
But now, when he saw the huge skeleton of the wolf, it was as if he had seen the food of his dreams.
They were drooling with anticipation.
He licked his lips, his eyes gradually twisting into a ferocious grotesque shape.
"Hehehe!"
He let out a triumphant smile as if he had seen delicious food.
Leap!
I plopped down on the back of the anal-cleaning guy, as if I were holding a soft, beautiful woman, ignoring its struggles and resistance, and pressed my mouth against it.
"Click click click!?"
The guy who was being forcibly hugged for the first time was so startled that he turned around to look at the human riding on his back.
Its current intelligence is sufficient to discern the human's identity.
What's more, before being released to fight today, they were forced to study a documentary for a whole day.
It was also forced to get to know its owner's "teammates".
The anus-cleansing guy, with his simple mind, couldn't understand why this "teammate" was riding on his back and trying to break his bones.
Moreover, the way this "teammate" was drooling over it made it look like an undead creature, greasy and disgusting.
"Click-click-click?"
"Hehehe!!"
"Click-click-click?"
"Hehehe!!"
The bones of the anus-cleaning guy are not easy to dismantle, and the anus-cleaning guy also has to struggle.
The two of them made eerie noises in the silent battlefield.
Some people thought the monster had returned and hurriedly pulled their necks back.
Some people peered out curiously, but couldn't see anything.
Just then, a portal suddenly appeared in front of Brother Gougang and Xu Qingqiang.
Immediately afterwards, two rotting, head-shaking zombie bears emerged from the door.
Xu Qingqiang saw the delicious food presented to him, hesitated for a moment, and then continued to break open Gang Ge's bones.
Immediately afterwards, two more zombie bears emerged and lined up in front of Xu Qingqiang.
She looked like a voluptuous beauty, L, her eyes conveying affection, begging, "Come on, come on!"
~
Under the temptation, Xu Qingqiang indeed became even more hesitant.
Finally, Brother Gougang seized an opportunity, rolled on the ground, and threw Xu Qingqiang off.
Without looking back, he rushed into the portal.
Xu Qingqiang rolled over and stood up, his face covered with twisted demonic patterns, his eyes filled with greed and hunger.
The single horn on his head had grown out of nowhere, and coupled with his twisted and abnormal skeleton and his current gaze, he was no longer a human being.
He chuckled and pounced on the zombie bear.
"Awoo!"
The few people who witnessed this scene all vomited.
Wei Huan calmly watched this scene through the Demon Eye Lord.
In the blink of an eye, we had already arrived at the great tomb and had appeased the anus-cleansing guy.
When Xu Qingqiang returned, he had already eaten half of the zombie bear.
To avoid causing panic and disgust, Wei Huan ordered the facehuggers to surround the area where Xu Qingqiang was located from the very beginning.
Those outside could no longer see what Xu Qingqiang was doing.
Xu Qingqiang's car was also asked to come over as soon as possible to pick him up after he finished eating.
Wei Huan didn't care; Xu Qingqiang was devouring his undead army, as long as he didn't touch those elites.
Moreover, ever since the last exploration of the divine ruins, he has been concerned about the green flame in Xu Qingqiang's eyes.
This is a great opportunity to prove your ideas.
Xu Qingqiang wanted to eat, so he was given some.
Once you're full, the answer you're looking for will naturally appear.
Wei Huan didn't care what would happen to Xu Qingqiang, but if this method could create a trustworthy and powerful person, Wei Huan was very willing to push this forward.
However, everything is currently unknown and is just speculation.
Xu Qingqiang ate three zombie bears and didn't faint this time.
When the car came to pick him up, he abandoned the last zombie bear and staggered back into the car.
Lin Xu and Zhou Yong, who picked him up, had normal expressions, obviously because they often let him out to eat and then brought him back to the car.
This sense of order reassured Wei Huan.
It seems that Xu Qingqiang, when he becomes twisted, is not without limits.
At least no matter how crazy or hungry he is, he won't hurt his two brothers.
This subconscious self-imposed limitation demonstrates that the criminal hierarchy is not entirely useless.
Even the edges have their advantages.
After Xu Qingqiang left, Wei Huan's undead army also withdrew.
The casualties in this battle were the greatest in the past two days.
More than 300 vehicles were damaged to varying degrees.
Three hours later, several representatives from the damaged vehicles contacted Wei Huan, hoping that the authorities could help them restore their vehicles.
Wei Huan agreed to their video call request.
Looking at the man on the other side of the screen, who appeared to be a smart and elite, I could see the calculation in his eyes that he couldn't hide.
Wei Huan only said, "I haven't joined any legion yet. As a free agent, it's a favor if I help you clear the level, but it's normal if I don't."
So, I'll say it one last time: before dawn, all challengers whose vehicles are damaged should either stay put and figure out their own way.
Either abandon the vehicle,
The passenger boarded another fully booked bus.
Wei Huan did not want to negotiate with these people who came prepared.
He knew that he was influenced by Commander Dong and others, and that he was easily inclined to think that he would not abandon anyone.
They will be controlled by these people using morality.
So, he started by flipping the table.
Never compromise.
There were too many people participating in this assessment; he's not a god.
He told himself from the beginning that he couldn't bring everyone through the challenge.
We can't let the desire to carry on the spirit of Commander Dong and his men drag us to our deaths here.
No, his mission upon rebirth was never this.
His enemies are on the front lines.
He will use his power to kill all the dark beasts.
Instead of wasting energy arguing with these people here, which might not even yield any good results.
The man opposite me, seemingly confident, wore a cold smile.
He suddenly became agitated, his face zooming in on the screen: "Making them give up their vehicles is tantamount to making them give up their status as challengers! Professionals who lose their vehicles can never ride in another one. You're murdering their future! We must discuss this further, we should..."
Wei Huan interrupted him: "The convoy will depart on time at six o'clock this morning. You can stay and handle this matter."
The man's contorted face froze instantly.
Let him stay and resolve the issue? How? He only dared to advance because of the army. Without the army, he wouldn't even last the first day of challenging the world.
"But..." The man racked his brains, still trying to persuade her.
Wei Huan raised his hand and shut down the communication.
Even if you are scolded or cursed, it doesn't matter. Those who achieve great things don't concern themselves with trifles.
If he can lead most of the people here to complete the assessment at the end, he will succeed.
As for those he abandoned and who died... well, let's see if the number of people he saved is worth the lives of those people by the end of the story.
Sun Yiling was right there and witnessed it all.
She looked at Wei Huan with awe, and subconsciously straightened her back, sitting much more upright.
It's not that she thinks Wei Huan is necessarily right.
However, it must be acknowledged that Wei Huan's unwavering belief in himself from the bottom of his heart gave his followers a clear sense of purpose and a strong sense of direction.
Whether it's right or wrong, don't hesitate to keep going. In the end, history will judge.
After Wei Huan refused to negotiate, negative voices were bound to emerge within the team.
But when it got light at 6 a.m., the convoy set off again, and those who had complained followed closely behind, afraid of falling behind.
The group that shouted "We'd rather die than abandon the vehicle" silently boarded other fully loaded vehicles, essentially getting "standing tickets," and were just waiting to pass the test so they could return to Earth.
As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.
As long as you're alive, you might encounter some unexpected turn of events and a dramatic reversal of fortune. Even the status of a Level 3 Challenger is still far more valuable than that of an ordinary citizen.
Who knows if one day my car will be back in the world?
When you're dead, you truly have nothing left.
Those who came to terms with it blamed their bad luck and had no complaints about Wei Huan; they even thanked him for making such an arrangement for them.
Those who couldn't understand... could only hold their anger in their throats and dared not show it to Wei Huan.
Moreover, after accepting the riders who had fallen behind from Group A, the team had already swelled to 44,000 people, so the voice of a mere few dozen or a few hundred people was simply too insignificant.
Wei Huan protected the safety of the vast majority of people; his merits far outweighed his faults.
Besides, what wrong has he done?
As a leader, the worst thing is to hesitate and act impulsively. Sacrificing the safety of tens of thousands for the sake of a mere few hundred people is what makes one incompetent.
However, Wei Huan's actions still caused many onlookers to whisper among themselves.
In his group, for example.
There were two cars belonging to the leader, from the Muslim family.
One of them is a Tier 3 premium car, and the other has even reached Tier 4.
This level of quality is among the best of the ten leadership vehicles that Wei Huan has chosen for this impulsive event.
This is the strongest force the Mu family can muster at this stage.
Of course, the Mu family is a century-old prominent family with a profound heritage, and it certainly has more to offer than just this.
Most of the family's cars are well-known on third- and fourth-class highways.
If Mu Dehao hadn't been unexpectedly stripped of his power, the Mu family would probably have been able to get a share of the profits on the Fifth-Class Highway.
However, a family, like a country, is not just about the top group.
The next generation of talent is just as important.
Many members of the Mu family remained on the secondary highways to develop their businesses. In particular, this fourth-level vehicle was a figure similar to Sister Lu on highways 123, 124, and 125, controlling the resources of these three highways and protecting the safety of challengers on these three highways.
The Mu family has a much deeper foundation than Sister Lu.
People on secondary roads don't need to go any further. Because there are family members who are pioneering and expanding their territory ahead.
Those who remain on the secondary highway serve as a fallback for the family and a base for cultivating talent within the family.
A truly great family must possess this kind of foundation.
But this time, in order to ensure that Wei Huan and Mu Zhong could pass the test safely.
It could even be said that it helped the two of them gain tremendous merit in this assessment task.
The Mu family brought out their greatest asset on the secondary highway: two leader cars that had retired from Sister Lu's team and brought over ten thousand challengers to join them.
Initially, both of the Mu family's cars were in Sister Lu's group. Before they could reunite with Wei Huan, Sister Lu took them away in one go.
In the end, they had to retreat, gather the crowd, and retrace their steps.
They have now officially made contact with Wei Huan and Mu Zhong, and have confirmed their identities. They are discreetly helping Wei Huan maintain order and have played a significant role in intelligence gathering.
This Class IV vehicle has 12 seats, including 7 members of the Mu family and 5 geniuses trained by the Mu family.
Each one also reached Sequence 3.
The commander and deputy commander are both in the fourth rank.
With this car's capabilities, it could easily lead another C team on its own.
But at this moment, they are willing to play a supporting role, hiding themselves, all for the prosperity of the family.
"Because our potential is limited, even if the family devotes all its resources to training us, we are only ordinary strong individuals and cannot dominate the battlefield."
"Wei Huancai, Sequence Three, continue..."
Several battles have proven his boundless potential; his position as a Gravekeeper is invincible.
"Such a genius, and also Uncle San's son-in-law, is family."
"Give him 100 points and he'll get 200 in return. If it were me, I would give him all the good things too."
"Give us resources, but also give us sincerity. Only then can our interests be aligned forever. If he is strong, the Mu family will also continue to prosper."
"Third Aunt is a genius. She was able to predict Wei Huan's fate. Fortunately, Wei Huan is a member of the Mu family. If other families had gotten there first, we would have been kicking ourselves and would have been unable to sleep peacefully."
"I wouldn't feel at ease if it were anyone else..."
The two fourth-tier professionals from the Mu family's fourth-tier vehicle had been talking about Wei Huan for a long time.
The more they talked about it, the more they realized that Wei Huan was simply a divine being sent from heaven.
With great strength and potential, he is a genius, a powerful figure destined for high office and capable of supporting the prosperity of an entire family.
But Wei Huan demonstrated more than just the qualities of a "warrior".
Since entering the assessment world, all his performances have been exceptionally outstanding, demonstrating clear leadership qualities.
It's not about the qualities of a leader who leads a nation, but rather the potential of a leader who dominates the battlefield.
The world is about to be challenged, and the world's order will be changed in millions of years. Chaos and strife will ensue, and heroes will vie for supremacy.
This is the worst of times, and the best of times.
Countless ordinary people from the bottom of society seized the opportunity and rose to prominence.
Wei Jinhong, an ordinary late-night designated driver, has now become the son-in-law of the Gong family, the leader of a second-rate car team, surrounded by a beautiful wife and children, living a life of wealth and luxury.
Meanwhile, for those families that are already special, their desires will only go further.
Wei Huantian descended.
If we could go even higher, wouldn't it be better to have a "Commander-in-Chief" in the family than a "Legion Commander"?
Of course, leaders are vulnerable before they truly mature.
These disciples were Wei Huan's "protectors," dedicated to his final moment of glory. They were willing to sacrifice themselves to ensure his growth on this perilous journey...
"Brother, the intelligence we received today tells me that something's not right."
The speaker was the deputy commander of a level 4 vehicle, an adopted son of the Mu family. His parents had both died while challenging the world, and he was a genius from the previous year, a district champion.
After joining the Mu family, they provided him with resources and helped him grow.
Treat others with sincerity.
But even such a district champion is just an ordinary genius in front of Wei Huan and Mu Zhong.
This genius is now doing tactical analysis for a true genius.
"There are some shady characters hiding in the convoy, stirring up trouble in the shadows. They've secretly set up a local area network, and the messages they exchange are aimed at disrupting the convoy's order and creating chaos."
Our people are trying to infiltrate; it should be fine, and we should have results tonight.
The other person is a member of the Mu family. Although they are from a distant branch of the family, the Mu family treats everyone equally and would never push away a capable member of their own family.
For a family to prosper, it needs a high degree of loyalty among its bloodline, and the Mu family has done an excellent job in this regard, never letting down any of its descendants.
Therefore, even if it were a fourth-tier powerhouse, he would be willing to "make wedding dresses" for a young man.
The fourth-rank Mu family member, the chariot commander, looked resentful after hearing this: "What time is it? You're still only concerned with fighting for power and personal revenge."
The Dark Beasts are trying to kill us, and humans are trying to kill each other. They are aiding and abetting evil, which is too mild a condemnation. They are a bunch of inhuman beasts, just like the War Clan!
We must investigate thoroughly and report to Mu Zhong… No, wait, we should send this message to him first, so we can be prepared.
Once we've investigated, we'll drag those rats out and make an example of them!
"yes!"!
