Chapter 1738 - 1737: Logging In to Vine Dragon Mountain!
Red Moon’s voice wasn’t loud, but everyone heard it, and they all fell silent.
Before they knew it, Qin Feng had already become the hope in their hearts.
Thinking of that name, everyone finally felt a faint trace of comfort.
Just then.
The Poisonous Insect King, White Ghost, suddenly froze for a moment, then immediately opened his palm.
A Gu Worm flickering with a strange light appeared in his hand; though it made no sound, White Ghost already understood the message it carried, and immediately said to everyone, "There’s news!!"
"Oh??"
Everyone couldn’t help standing up and looking over.
"What does it say?"
The Dragon Commander hurriedly leaned in to ask.
"It’s a message from Sister-in-law." White Ghost said.
"Sister-in-law? Which sister-in-law??"
Wang Zanggu asked on the side.
Unrivaled, Lin, Red Moon and the others all felt a bit awkward beside him; Qin Feng had way too many women, which meant they had way too many "sisters-in-law"...
"It’s Sister-in-law Baili."
White Ghost said.
"Oh, oh, so it’s Master Baili." The Heavenly River Taoist said from the side, "Let me tell you, Master Baili is a really great person too, last time she..."
He was still talking when Red Moon coughed twice speechlessly on the side.
The Heavenly River Taoist turned his head, then hurriedly forced a smile and said, "No no, I misspoke just now. If we’re talking about who’s best, of course Master Hongyue is the best..."
Red Moon raised an eyebrow, gave him a whack on the head, and shouted, "I mean, stop talking this useless crap and let White Ghost tell us the message!!"
"..."
The Heavenly River Taoist clutched his aching head at last and let White Ghost continue.
White Ghost said, "They’ve already finished the preparations to set up the ’Qiankun Transfer Array’ outside!"
"Really? That’s great!!"
Shuiyun Immortal and the others were all excited.
The Dragon Commander and his group had come here bringing information: they were to provide support first, while Qin Feng stayed behind to form a legion with the remaining people and prepare to open the ’Qiankun Transfer Array’ that could transfer this calamity away.
Once it succeeded, this catastrophe could be perfectly resolved!
This was their ultimate goal!!
"I was still thinking they’d need at least a week to get ready, and by then I feared our side would have long since been breached and everything would’ve gone to waste." One of the Five Great Generals was also excited at this moment. "Didn’t expect they’d be ready already!"
White Ghost went on, "Their array is like this..."
He roughly explained it to them.
Then he added, "The Earth Army of one hundred and fifty thousand, with Liu Li at the lead, is about to reach Vine Dragon Mountain. To complete the array, we have to escort them to the very center of Vine Dragon Mountain. Only then can the entire ’Qiankun Transfer Array’ be activated."
"Good. It won’t be easy, but even if we have to die, we’ll hold the line!" the Dragon Commander said.
They had come here in advance to support precisely to buy Qin Feng and the others enough time to prepare; now that the moment had finally come, they naturally no longer cared about life or death.
He stood up and looked at everyone, saying, "From here on out, this is the critical moment. We don’t have time to rest; we must escort them safely to their destination! Even if we die here, we have to see it done! This isn’t for us—it’s for the entire world behind us!"
"Understood!!"
Everyone sprang to their feet in unison, eyes blazing with excitement.
They had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
As long as they could transfer the calamity away, it would be a victory for this world.
"All right! Then we set out now and go meet them!!" the Dragon Commander said.
Only Ling’er was left here to watch over the Holy Daughter whose Primordial Spirit had left her body, and Wang Zanggu’s Eight Hundred Blade Team.
Even though Alien Beasts were appearing now, there was no guarantee people from the Inner World wouldn’t attack again. The Guardian Formation was also in a weakened state; the Eight Hundred Blade Team’s offensive power was strong, allowing them to effectively strike outward and block the enemy.
Everyone else followed the Dragon Commander outside.
Western shore of Vine Dragon Mountain.
With Qi Ling and Baili Qiurong at the lead, they brought Liu Li and the Dragon Bureau’s Wan Jun, commanding the one hundred and fifty thousand strong army, and quietly landed on shore.
They had just reached the bank.
When a huge Alien Beast with a ferocious face came over from that side.
It looked like some kind of spider, with eight legs and six eyes, drooling greedy and disgusting slime from its mouth.
Its sudden appearance gave everyone a scare.
"Th-this thing... looks creepy as hell!" someone said blankly.
Never mind how strong it was.
It was uglier than any Demon Beast or Monster they had ever seen.
"Ugh, damn! Did this guy crawl out of the movie Alien or what? So gross..." a Knight from a Western-world organization said in shock.
Just then, that huge Alien Beast, seeing them, widened its six eyes excitedly, then opened its giant maw and stuck out a disgusting tongue as it lunged their way.
"Don’t alert the enemy!"
The Dragon Bureau’s Wan Jun, in charge of directing everyone, was afraid they’d start a fight and make too much noise, and quickly reminded them.
Then.
He leapt up, flipped backward, and soared a hundred meters into the air, landing on the Alien Beast’s head; then he clenched his Iron Fist and smashed it down hard on the beast’s head!
"Boom!!"
With a muffled bang, the tremendous force from Wan Jun’s fist directly blew a hole through the Alien Beast’s skull.
He leapt again and returned to his original spot.
"So strong!"
Everyone couldn’t help but exclaim.
Especially those new members from later-joining organizations, who praised, "Truly worthy of being the head of the Dragon Bureau!"
They weren’t flattering him.
That punch from Wan Jun just now looked effortless, but the force it contained could have pierced a mountain.
The hard part was that he’d controlled his strength, not letting it burst out wildly, and thus avoided causing a huge commotion.
"Let’s move!"
Wan Jun ordered in a low voice.
Qi Ling said at this moment, "No need to be that careful anymore."
"We must. Even though I just one-shotted that Alien Beast, those things are extremely tough; it took quite a bit of my Power. If a few more show up, that’ll be very bad for us. Better to stay cautious!" Wan Jun said with a frown.
Qi Ling shook her head and said, "What I mean is... just see for yourself!"
Wan Jun looked up.
And instantly drew in a sharp breath!!
Under the Bright Moon.
The hillside ahead was crawling with Alien Beasts of all shapes and sizes!
And more and more Alien Beasts were appearing one after another!
Even though they had one hundred and fifty thousand people, a full army corps, in the face of such numbers of Alien Beasts they still looked tiny...
Wan Jun then realized that "being careful" was pointless now; they’d be discovered no matter what.
"Th-there’s no way we can break through this..."
Someone in the crowd said blankly.
Some people’s legs were even shaking.
Wan Jun’s brow was tightly furrowed as well.
If they forced a charge, they did have plenty of experts among them.
But how many would be left by the end?
It would badly affect the plan!
Yet without sacrifices, it was utterly impossible to reach the center of Vine Dragon Mountain!
Wan Jun hesitated for a moment, his expression solemn, and said, "Listen to my orders!"
