The driver's cab was completely silent, as if even the sound of breathing had disappeared.
Time passed second by second.
It seemed like a long time had passed, so long that everyone's thinking unconsciously drifted, and they believed that nothing would happen.
Suddenly, a burst of green flame blasted through the thick night.
Green fireworks pierced the sky and earth, as if their brilliance, once unleashed, illuminated the entire heavens.
For the first time, the night that challenged the world was as bright as day.
"Boom!"
Only then did the sound reach us.
Like a thunderclap from the heavens, it startled everyone, whether they were prepared or not.
It was at this moment that everyone realized that it was more than just fireworks; it was a rising mushroom cloud.
What did Wei Huan do?!
Did he bring a mushroom bomb to challenge the world?!
No, mushroom bombs can't be brought into the Challenge World.
If it were possible, the Dark Beast Lord would have been sent to his death long ago by each nation, one beast and one egg at a time.
So, is this also Wei Huan's ability?
Or is it Mu Zhong's?
Isn't that just too astonishing? With the power of that explosion, what can't it kill?
Xu Qingqiang took a deep breath, his peach blossom eyes flashing with a wicked glint.
This reminded him of his very unpleasant memory of his first meeting with Wei Huan.
That white rhinoceros was blasted away by Wei Huan using that tiny green flame. And Wei Huan has many, many more of these.
He still remembered the intense pressure and despair he felt when hundreds of the flames, held in the mouths of the ghost crows, danced around the car.
A single flame like that could blast away a platinum-level monster on a secondary highway.
Just how strong is Wei Huan?
Is this normal?
No one answered Xu Qingqiang.
Because the Netherfire is Wei Huan's strategic weapon, only he himself knows how much of his Netherfire is fully charged and how much is just a decoy.
In short, when in doubt, just use the "ghost fire" bombardment.
"Butler, let's go back."
In that deafening silence, Wei Huan issued another order.
He could see clearly that a level 3 full-power Netherfire couldn't kill a platinum monster; a tough battle was yet to come.
Wei Huan's left eye flickered with green flames, and he clearly saw the powerful blue-bearded man who had risen again from the scorched earth, driven to madness by pain.
The Platinum Monster on the Category 3 highway is indeed very strong.
If we don't go all out, we probably really won't be able to kill it.
"Awoooooo..."
Before even returning to the shattered ruins, they heard terrifying screams coming from within them.
The undead that Wei Huan had just taken into the tomb launched another all-out attack.
Even Moji, the uncontrollable Shuro, jumped out again and charged headlong towards the Platinum-level Bluebeard Man.
"Hohoho!!!"
"Awoooooo..."
Moji is an Elite Shura, but its mind is filled with chaos and slaughter, and it is not under Wei Huan's control.
After two consecutive accidents, it opened without authorization.
After the war, Wei Huan never upgraded it.
If the first-tier weapon is already so powerful, who knows what kind of trouble it will cause if it upgrades to the third tier.
Sure enough, before Wei Huan could react, it charged straight at the blue-bearded man.
Driven mad by pain, the blue-bearded man's tentacles danced wildly, like whips capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks.
The tips of the tentacles are like poisoned spearheads, spraying out a liquid that can even corrode stone.
The appearance of Moji caught the attention of the blue-bearded man, and most of its tentacles danced toward Moji.
Nearly a hundred tentacles twisted together, like a palm, and slammed down from the sky.
It was on high alert, and then, in a fit of rage, it unleashed its full power.
"Pfft!"
The earthquake trembled, scorched earth flew up, and the ground sank three inches into the air.
As soon as the giant hand left, sand and gravel fell with a whooshing sound.
In the middle of the pit, a strangely shaped black leather sheet was pressed tightly against the ground.
Thin as a sheet of paper, dead beyond dead.
The blue-bearded man probably hadn't expected the enemy to be so weak. After a moment of stunned silence, he calmed down.
Only then did the true army of the undead appear.
The blue-bearded man looked at the skeletons, his deep blue eyes clear, and he couldn't muster the urge to go mad.
That's how momentum works; it gets exhausted time and time again.
Whether it's good or bad is unclear, but every time Mo Ji appears, it leaves people speechless with regret.
"boom!"
Just as the Bluebeard people underestimated the undead army, the undead army, under Wei Huan's orders, launched a general offensive.
The zombie bear charged at the forefront.
They are slow-moving, but huge in size, and have great strength and defense.
Especially after the dancer's blessing increased their endurance and defense, the platinum-grade tentacles lashed at them, tearing their skin and breaking their bones and tendons. But fortunately, a single tentacle could not kill them in one go.
If they can't kill them in one go, then it's the undead army's turn to dominate.
As long as you still have claws and teeth, you can tear off a piece of flesh from your enemy.
Use your body to become a stumbling block for the enemy; even if you are beaten to pieces, as long as you can still move, you will be trapped.
One after another, the zombie bears, undeterred by pain, had their brains shattered.
One dies, and the next one takes its place.
Each tentacle was being torn apart by two or more ferocious bears, who refused to let go.
"Click-click-click!"
Then, the anus-cleaning guy made his appearance.
Without giving the Bluebeard any time to react, it tore at its tentacles, circled around to its back, and searched for any possible weakness.
Until the Bluebeard's first tentacle was bitten off.
"Roar roar roar!"
It roared in pain once again.
The immense force unleashed sent the walking bear and the wolf flying, scattering their broken bones everywhere.
Platinum-level monsters are indeed powerful.
The third-tier undead cannot control it, and even with buffs, it is no better.
Fortunately, I bombed it beforehand, which reduced its stamina by half; otherwise, it would have been even harder to kill.
Wei Huan tried using the Ghost Crow to transport two more Netherfires over.
The blue-bearded man was extremely vigilant, with the longest tentacles...
It danced into the sky, and before the ghost fire could get close, it shattered it.
The explosion only had aftershocks; it couldn't kill him at all.
The Eye Lord reappeared, his enhanced black light falling from the sky and landing on the Bluebeard.
"Roar roar roar!"
As expected, higher-level undead are more lethal; the Bluebeard was beaten until his flesh and blood were torn apart.
Since the tentacles couldn't reach the Eye Lord, the Bluebeard was a helpless target.
But Wei Huan did not let his guard down; he knew the Bluebeard people very well.
Sure enough, the next second, its body suddenly sank, its tentacles transformed into the bowstring, and it became the arrow that was released from the bow, flying into the sky.
"Whoosh!"
One more spin!
"Clap clap clap!"
With a series of explosions, the four-headed demon-eyed lord was instantly killed and returned to the Great Tomb.
So strong!
Wei Huan, with his higher vantage point, clearly saw this scene.
It truly lives up to its reputation as a legendary monster on the Class III highway.
Compared to that white rhinoceros that was useless except for its size, this blue-bearded man had far more ways to attack.
Fortunately, he had other methods.
"Whoosh—Buzz!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
But in that instant, streaks of green light slid across the dark sky.
Before he could even land like a dandelion seed, the blue-bearded man was caught in a net over his head.
It struggled desperately.
The green nets are more resilient than imagined, and more importantly, there are so many of them, layer upon layer, one after another, and there's no end to it.
In this process, one's strength is gradually depleted.
Gradually, these nets from all directions seemed to reach a balance of power, truly trapping him in the middle of the "net".
Following the trail of these nets, the green threads revealed that, unbeknownst to them, the Crypt Beast Mother and the Facehugger had once again transformed into a bone fortress, using this method to "capture" their enemy once more.
More than a hundred skeletal bunkers stretched out a net nearly a kilometer long, completely enveloping the monster.
The scene was quite shocking.
Unfortunately, apart from Xu Qingqiang, no one else at the scene witnessed this heart-wrenching moment.
Darkness repels humans of the light, obscuring their vision. Even a third-tier professional, when challenging the world's vision, is no different from an ordinary person on Earth walking at night without lights or starlight.
They couldn't see clearly, only that the sounds of battle were constant ahead, and the undead army kept attacking.
So... what happened to that platinum monster?
Only Xu Qingqiang could see the entire battlefield.
He held his breath, feeling as if a fire was burning inside him.
He wanted to fight.
It's not just because this monster smells good.
More importantly, he recalled the feeling of fighting alongside the undead army, which could only be described as wonderful.
These undead are like the best comrades on the battlefield; cooperating with them can bring the most wonderful experience.
Like rushing forward with the current, everything was so natural and effortless. He was confident that he could smash even the hardest rock.
For one
What can we expect from a "madman" who has evolved into a "twisted" individual?
Aside from his appetite, only a frenzied battle could excite him.
Just then, Liu Chengzhi came over with some skewers of barbecue. He stood reluctantly next to Xu Qingqiang with a dark face, and was immediately intimidated.
Xu Qingqiang in front of me was no longer human; half of his face was covered with jagged patterns, his teeth were sharp and interlocked like a shark's, and his peach blossom eyes were bloodshot.
He himself didn't realize that when he glanced at Liu Chengzhi, it was as if he wanted to devour him.
He wasn't even interested in the meat that was served to him.
Finally, his gaze fell on Wei Huan.
Criminals have no teammates; they can only fight alone. Even if they bleed to death, no one dares to stand by their side.
Only Wei Huan made him realize for the first time that having teammates meant he was no longer alone.
And...it's really strong.
With only his own abilities and the blessing of the dancer, he has fought against a legendary monster until now.
Fighting alongside such a person gives him a sense of being protected, a feeling of security that even if he goes crazy and crashes into the sky, someone will pull him back at the last moment.
His tongue licked his teeth, a slight stinging sensation, along with the metallic taste of blood, assaulted his excited, trembling brain.
He seemed reluctant to leave.
"Let me go," Xu Qingqiang said. "I'll try my best not to eat it."
Xu Qingqiang looked at Wei Huan and said, "Your undead army has a fatal weakness, which you should be well aware of."
Yes, we lack the sharpest, most effective offensive capability, like the tip of a knife.
Furthermore, Wei Huan is only a third-tier "Gravekeeper," so there are limits to his ability to fight across levels.
With his current combat strength, without using "Bloodlust," Wei Huan probably really has no way to deal with this legendary monster.
Wei Huan and Xu Qingqiang both understood.
They needed to return to the legion before dawn; they couldn't afford to be delayed for too long.
Finally, Wei Huan nodded.
He believed that given Xu Qingqiang's affection for Qi Jialu, he would be able to control his appetite.
There's no need to waste time with nonsense.
"Go ahead," Wei Huan said.
Xu Qingqiang didn't move, then looked at Mu Zhong and said, "I want to offer my blessings."
This was the first time Mu Zhong had used it on a person, and he reminded him, "Even a normal blessing will leave you weak for half a day."
Xu Qingqiang nodded without hesitation.
Mu Zhong's gaze towards Xu Qingqiang shifted slightly, and he flicked his wrist towards his earring, "Ding~~~"
"Hehehe!"
A dark shadow, like a knife slicing through the night, swooped down on the large green cocoon with unparalleled sharpness.
"Hehehe—"
Like the howling of a devil, there was an irrepressible excitement.
"Click-click-click!"
The anus-cleaning guy even responded with a whistling sound.
The wolf army, which had been roaming the outer circle, received the order to "attack".
With Xu Qingqiang in front, the wolf pack, like his fluttering cloak, swarmed forward with howling fury.
Xu Qingqiang's body twisted like a demon as he pounced directly on the green cocoon.
He reached into the cocoon, his sharp claws easily slicing it open. He rummaged inside for three seconds, then...
With a sudden burst of strength, he arched his back and jerked his head back.
He pulled out the two tentacles with one hand.
Then his claws and the teeth of the anus-penetrating guy simultaneously bit into the two tentacles.
"Awoo!"
The tough tentacles were nothing to Xu Qingqiang, who had been buffed, and were easily broken in two.
The green cocoon trembled repeatedly, and the blue-bearded man struggled in pain inside.
Highly toxic venom sprayed from the tips of the tentacles, corroding the green cocoon.
Fortunately, as a form of dark energy, the Green Cocoon has a high resistance to venom.
Xu Qingqiang reached in with his hand and felt a burning sensation.
His powerful healing ability, "Twisted," allowed him to ignore the injury.
Then, he pulled out two more identical tentacles and tore them to shreds.
The blue-bearded man was in excruciating pain.
As a legendary monster, he has more than 180 tentacles, each of which is a weapon he cherishes and trusts, and also one of his limbs.
The pain of a severed limb is like the pain of bones shattering.
"..."
The silent struggle finally caused his body to wriggle and crawl out a little bit through the crack that Xu Qingqiang had made.
It was like a squid delivered right to Xu Qingqiang's door, directly into his mouth.
Xu Qingqiang was tearing at the food when he couldn't resist taking a bite. It smelled so good!
The injuries on his body were somewhat healed by this mouthful of pure energy.
The blue-bearded man was desperate to escape, oblivious to the fact that his tentacles had been torn off.
It knew very well that if it didn't want to die, it had to break free of the cocoon first.
One by one, the tentacles emerged.
We can't finish it, we simply can't finish it.
The squid tentacles that were brought to his mouth were normally a dish that Xu Qingqiang would have devoured with great relish, given his eating speed.
But his remaining sanity reminded him that he couldn't eat; he could only look at the "squid tentacles" with longing.
Tear it with your claws, bite it with your teeth, break off as many pieces as you can.
The Anal-Cleaning Guy, along with Shura and the Demon Eye Lord, are also key figures in this battle.
Their attack power is not as strong as Xu Qing's, but they have the advantage of large numbers.
As long as you can break through the defense, you can break off one of the tentacles by attacking it a few more times.
Even with all its tentacles, the Bluebeard Man has a limit.
In an instant, tentacles danced in the air. Xu Qingqiang and the undead cooperated perfectly, and many tentacles that were about to lash out at Xu Qingqiang were restrained by the undead.
Xu Qingqiang just needs to focus on outputting damage.
It feels good to have comrades-in-arms. Even if he gets carried away with killing, it doesn't matter if he takes a hit on these undead. They won't complain about his mistake.
He loves them to death.
Xu Qingqiang and the undead worked together to successfully tear off more than ten tentacles from the blue-bearded man.
But the Bluebeard Man finally emerged completely.
Following the force, the blue-bearded man sprang towards Xu Qingqiang, instead enveloping him completely in his tentacles.
Venom released!
Crazy entanglement!
"Aaaaah!" Xu Qingqiang screamed in pain.
Wei Huan directed from high above, ordering the spirits of the dead to rescue Xu Qingqiang.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!" The anus-cleansing guy commanded his wolf army, swarming forward to tear at the tentacles and rescue Xu Qingqiang.
.
Xu Qingqiang was inside, while the anus-cleansing guy was outside. Working together, with heavy breathing, Xu Qingqiang, whose skin was already beginning to dissolve, was rescued.
The pain gradually contorted his expression, and the demonic runes finally began to grotesquely flare up. Instead of retreating, they advanced, leaping towards the blue-bearded man.
The blue-bearded man raised his tentacles and pulled Xu Qingqiang away again.
At the command of the anus-raking man, the wolf leaped up and used its body to block the tentacles.
"Bang!"
Several wolves were whipped to pieces.
But it also successfully created an opportunity for Xu Qingqiang.
Xu Qingqiang jumped twice in a row and finally crashed into the blue-bearded man, raising his hand to scratch him hard.
"Pfft!"
The blue-bearded man's head, which had been dented by the explosion, was torn apart by Xu Qingqiang, leaving a deep wound from his forehead to his jaw, from which thick blue blood flowed.
"…"
The blue-bearded man opened his mouth and made a silent cry.
Xu Qingqiang was driven mad by a headache, but he became even more courageous in the fight.
He leaped up and jumped onto the blue-bearded man's back, opening his mouth to bite its head.
The green flames in the eyes of the man who was digging out his anus flickered, commanding the wolves to bite the tentacles to the death. Countless wolves swarmed forward and tore the blue-bearded man into dandelions.
They may not be able to easily bite off the tentacles, but they can control them by risking their lives.
The clever guy knew that Xu Qingqiang was the key to their victory in this battle, and they had to create an environment for Xu Qingqiang to deal damage.
"Rusting..."
At this moment, the dog arrived late, accompanied by its army of facehuggers.
Originally, the dog, who was coordinating with Dianma to form a "combination skill" and creating a white bone fortress, received Wei Huan's order to come and support Xu Qingqiang and the anus-scooping guy.
Is a non-level facehugger useful against a legendary monster?
Of course it's useful!
They rustled and climbed onto the wolf's back, or simply hugged and bit its tentacles, only to be entangled by the facehuggers around them. Soon, they used their bodies to weave a sturdy web of white bones, fixing the blue-bearded man's tentacles to the ground.
A single chopstick is easily broken, but what about hundreds or thousands?
The Bluebeard people fought desperately to suppress the rebellion, knowing they couldn't be trapped.
What made it despair was the relentless onslaught of enemies, who, undeterred by losses, steadily and persistently eroded its strength.
Its struggles gradually weakened, and Xu Qingqiang grabbed its head and began to gnaw at it, twisting his powerful bite force and biting off half of its head bit by bit.
It convulsed and screamed, but like a fish on a chopping board, it was scaled, gutted, and decapitated!
"!!!"
The process of having one's limbs pulled apart and one's head bitten off piece by piece is too bloody and cruel.
But Wei Huan kept his eyes wide open, staring intently.
This is a legendary monster. In the challenge world, it's not uncommon for even the most ordinary monsters to jump up and bite the challenger to death at the last moment.
We cannot let our guard down.
The battle continues until supplies drop, requiring full concentration.
As a precaution, Wei Huan also ordered Dianma to control all the underground beast mothers and move them to the center of the battlefield, using their long legs to hook onto the large net of white bones, turning it into another line of defense.
From high above, the charred ruins look like a white pot lid covering them.
The densely packed white bones writhed around the blue-bearded man's tentacles, pulling and tugging at them from all directions.
Xu Qingqiang cruelly bit off the blue-bearded man's head, one bite at a time.
Until a certain moment, the immense force that had been holding them in place suddenly loosened.
The tentacles then completely softened.
At the same time, Wei Huan's other eye saw the supplies that popped up on the projection screen.
[Obtained Bluebeard's Heart x1]
Immediately afterwards, even more supplies appeared.
[Obtained Platinum Power Potion x1]
[Obtained Platinum Agility Claw Gauntlets x1]
[Obtain Exterior Tire Upgrade Blueprint (Part 5) x1]
[Obtain Super Energy Storage Tank x1]
[Obtain Platinum Glasses x1]
[get...]
"It's done!"
"Was the Platinum Monster really killed? 10_[()]10'Come and see the latest chapter and the complete chapter'()"
"Oh My God!!"
Sun Yiling and Xiao Zhi held their heads in their hands, their eyes wide open to the limit, their faces filled with disbelief.
God knows, just a moment ago they were thinking about how L would escape, and the next second a notification popped up that supplies had been acquired.
This is a platinum-level monster!!
How could it be just one car? Or rather, just two or three people?
Impossible! I've never heard of anyone being able to do that!
Even Captain William Fang, ranked number one in the world in combat power, can only fight gold-level monsters one-on-one with his team; he can't touch platinum-level treasure chests.
When they were stuck on a level 5 highway while on a level 4 highway, Captain William's squad couldn't even kill a gold-level monster on their own.
I've never heard of anyone being able to take down a Platinum-level treasure chest with just one car.
"Isn't this a bit too strong?" Sun Yiling was still muttering to herself, staring at the supplies that were refreshing on the screen, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
These words also surged in Mu Tangge's heart.
Unlike Sun Yiling, he instantly accepted Wei Huan's power and looked forward to it with great joy, without the slightest shock.
That's how it should be!
The leader I follow must be this powerful. I am genuinely delighted and deeply proud to be able to serve such a leader.
"Knock knock knock!"
There was a knock on the door outside the car; Xu Qingqiang had returned.
The car door opened, and a wolf carrying Xu Qingqiang, who had returned to human form, stood at the door, flanked by "Anal-Catching Bro" and Gouzi. They were being escorted back.
Xu Qingqiang, clinging to the back of Benlang, got into the car with weak legs. When he looked up, his face was still contorted, like a vengeful ghost.
He glanced around, then lunged at Liu Chengzhi, grabbed the meat skewers from his hand, and ate them in large bites, skewer and all.
"Hungry, hehehe, hungry."
While eating, it made strange noises.
Liu Chengzhi jumped up and reassured him, "There's still food in the kitchen, I'll go make some for you."
After saying that, he hurriedly ran out, and there was no trace of the disdain he had shown just a moment ago.
"Is he injured?" Mu Zhong asked with concern, his gaze falling on Xu Qingqiang.
"Twisted" has an extremely powerful regenerative ability; as long as it consumes enough energy, it can even grow back severed limbs.
But Xu Qingqiang, having killed a legendary monster, refrained from eating it.
Mu Zhong also wanted to suggest that he give him a small amount of a dead creature to eat.
But after glancing at Wei Huan and Xu Qingqiang, who was engrossed in eating, he shut his mouth again.
Even though Wei Huan could easily help Xu Qingqiang with the things he chose to endure, he remained silent.
This is the tacit understanding between comrades-in-arms, and also the recognition between superiors and subordinates.
So Mu Zhong said, "Go and help out in a few more kitchens."
Sun Yiling and Xiao Zhi nodded, glanced at Xu Qingqiang with awe, and hurriedly ran out.
Mu's cousin was also going, but Wei Huan stopped him: "Prepare to head back."
"Yes." Brother Mu stood up straight instinctively and answered respectfully.
After ordering the butler to activate the [bipolar device] to return to base, the car reached a speed of 1400 miles per hour.
It was indeed 240 miles per hour faster than when it arrived.
Immediately afterward, Brother Mu exclaimed in delight, "Commander, we can upgrade to level five tires!"
