Chapter 252: Void Beast Herd, Reporting to Boss!

The Four Pillars' symbolic emblems, deeply branded into the internal flesh and bones of a mortal body, suddenly lit up—the one exclusive to the 【Celestial Being】.

Lines of text surfaced on the Stele Panel, faint traces sweeping across the retina.

【The Celestial Being gazes upon you】

【Exorcise heretical paths, slay the fiends!】

【Blessing conversion……】

【Basic Talent—Insight】

Qin Shi strode into the Bian Dian Zhan, where the space almost completely overlapped with the Netherworld; the entire area was dim, as if covered by a thick veil.

Spiderweb-like cracks spread across it, like tree-shaped lightning slowed down millions of times, black-purple light flickering and vomiting forth dense energy currents.

"Hah!"

Qin Shi felt his pores open wide; the Ru Shen Ti activated at full speed, madly swallowing one cluster after another of misty breath.

While receiving information from the Stele Panel, he released the "imprisonment" on his mortal body.

Overwhelming qi force surged like thunder, and the Perfect Grade Electric Shock Military Saber hummed and trembled, as if it would shoot out of its sheath.

"Insight... Pillar Boss is really thoughtful. Letting me legally cheat!"

Qin Shi plunged the military saber into the ground, gripped the dark red hilt, and slowly drew it out; that overwhelming qi force with nowhere to vent surged into the blade like a floodgate opening!

Amidst violent roaring, the blade trembled violently several times, perfectly fusing with his mortal body, becoming one.

【You are watched by the Celestial Being】

【Acquiring 80% weapon mastery bonus……】

Qin Shi gripped the dark red hilt and then activated the 【Insight】 achievement.

In almost an instant, his vision changed drastically, his Consciousness Sea rippled, and his spiritual power radiated like radar, spreading out a thousand meters.

Immediately after, long rectangular frames in gold, purple, and even red appeared before his eyes.

"Activate wallhack and map search, this one's a sure win."

Qin Shi took a deep breath; surging qi life force drove his mortal body, the Electric Shock Military Saber suddenly flashed, piercing the Void Space.

Crack!

Like tearing silk!

A transparent creature nearly two meters tall, resembling a scarecrow, revealed its outline one after another and was directly sliced in two.

Black flames like thin snakes were intense; a thread of energy refined to the extreme was absorbed completely by the Electric Shock Military Saber, making the blade's cold light even brighter.

"Clear out the grunts first, and then……"

Qin Shi turned sideways, seriously looking toward the southeast corner of the Bian Dian Zhan, where there was an extremely valuable "Wu Ran Yangyu."

The 【Insight】 achievement's scanning feedback emitted a faint golden light; compared to the countless blue and purple ones, it counted as a high-value item.

"One, two, three, four…… nineteen."

Qin Shi counted the monsters shown by 【Insight】; every breath he took was like muffled thunder, faintly echoing in the Bian Dian Zhan.

Those transparent creatures unable to be observed by the naked eye were captured one by one by long rectangular frames, with nowhere to hide.

The blade flashed, rending space!

One patch after another of black flames erupted, leaving behind charred traces, like charcoal pencil smears.

Long boots strode, landing on the rough concrete ground.

Qin Shi walked through the Bian Dian Zhan; every time he swung his blade, he would definitely take away one transparent creature.

As if he were the Boss here!

……

……

"Captain, there are a large number of 'Juvenile Xu Kong Shou' wandering in this Bian Dian Zhan."

The small-statured Watermelon Head hopped and skipped; after entering the Pollution Zone, she put on a blindfold, seeing nothing, like a blind person.

The "Analysis" trait of the Spiritual Path let her serve as the Niu Ma Xiao Dui's "Zhan Tao Fen Xi Shi," providing detailed intelligence.

"Although they are only juveniles, Xu Kong Shou have the 'Concealment' talent; even the keenest breath search or spiritual perception finds it hard to discover their traces."

Watermelon Head said softly.

"Once caught in an encirclement circle, it's easy to fall into a predicament of being nibbled away."

The short-haired woman, as Captain, had unquestionable strength.

She drew her Double Blades, preparing for battle.

"My trait is 'Divine Martial'; against Xu Kong Shou, I still have some confidence."

The short-haired woman focused her mind and slowly passed through the open gate of the Bian Dian Zhan.

With every step forward, she felt a danger like walking on thin ice, fearing that an Xu Kong Shou would suddenly launch a surprise attack!

The huge Bian Dian Zhan was extremely quiet, with only the occasional sound of electric sparks.

Crackling and bursting, sizzling.

"On Black Moon Night, Xu Kong Shou should also be affected, right?"

The short-haired woman held her breath; Watermelon Head didn't dare to breathe loudly, closely following her footsteps.

When they went deep into the center of the Bian Dian Zhan, the short-haired woman's pupils suddenly dilated; she saw the dim space, with charred traces slanting every which way, like a child's graffiti, lingering for a long time without dissipating.

"Uh……"

The short-haired woman calmed her emotions, and her tense nerves suddenly relaxed.

This Captain's thin lips curved into a smile, and she said self-mockingly:

"Miscalculation; Boss seems not to need our help very much."

Watermelon Head, wearing a blindfold, didn't know the outside situation and asked:

"Captain, what happened? I can't sense the existence of the You Kong Shou."

The short-haired woman shook her head; she didn't know how to describe this scene.

Those Spiritual Field Imprints scorched black in the void, they seemed like signposts erected by the roadside, representing the direction the Boss was advancing in.

They also signified the death of one You Kong Shou after another!

"The battle ended very swiftly, almost without encountering any resistance.

How did he do it? So many You Kong Shou, just like lambs waiting to be slaughtered."

The short-haired woman halted in place, frowning slightly.

As the Captain of the Support Team, her work experience was quite extensive; she had a general understanding of all kinds of Vassal Creatures.

Take juvenile You Kong Shou — not only are they adept at Yin Cang, even advanced Instruments can't detect them, and they can tear space for Fast Movement; even Professional Level Four struggle to deal with them.

They can be called top-tier Assassins!

They belong to the category of very troublesome targets to resolve.

Usually speaking, if one encounters a Beast Herd of You Kong Shou in a Contaminated Zone.

As long as the target exceeds five, anyone below Professional Level Four must retreat upon encountering them.

"The Boss's Xinling Xiuxiu shouldn't have reached Sitting Forgetting yet; what is he relying on to perform Spiritual Field Locking on the You Kong Shou?"

The short-haired woman felt Confusion, then followed the residual traces like charcoal smudges, continuing forward.

Bang!

She heard an explosion, like a thunderbolt striking the ground; the earth faintly transmitted a trembling sensation.

"Not good! The first round of tides of the Black Moon Night has arrived!"

Watermelon Head cried out in alarm; in her Perception, that Black Moon suspended in the Night Sky was projecting terrifying Energy Waves downward.

This is the "Black Moon Tide"!

All Vassal Creatures, upon being invaded by Contamination, will have their Aggressiveness and combat power greatly enhanced!

The short-haired woman didn't say more, her feet accelerating, hoping to catch up to the Boss and prevent him from falling into an encirclement.

No matter how strong an individual's strength, it is also extremely limited.

This is precisely the meaning of the Support Team's existence!

Boom!

Space tore open a pitch-black hole, roughly half a parking lot in size; one You Kong Shou after another roared, like Wooden Sticks breaking the Water Surface, stirring up ripples visible to the naked eye.

"Thirty heads……"

The short-haired woman's Expression was solemn; in the dim space of the Bian Dian Zhan, transparent outlines flickered in and out of existence, extremely difficult to Bu Dao their trajectories.

"Looks like I'll have to use a killing move!"

This Pioneer Squad Captain held her breath and focused, her gaze stern.

Double Blades gripped tight, intersecting, wanting to break into the Zhan Chang!

"Eh……"

The next moment, the short-haired woman clearly saw a white line traverse horizontally, like parting sea waves flashing rapidly; all You Kong Shou along the path were directly cut in half.

"Is that the Boss?"

The short-haired woman couldn't hide the Shock in her eyes; the gloomy space was split open, a knife-wielding figure running like thunder.

Wherever he passed, black flames sprayed forth!

Even though the You Kong Shou tear space, flickering in and out, that knife-wielding figure was faster than them, as if firmly locked on.

Blade exploding in slashes, leaping and charging, like white lightning turning at will within a narrow range!

In just under ten seconds, the numerous You Kong Shou that surged out from the dark cracks were all slaughtered!

Clang!

The military saber returned to the Black Scabbard; a calm Gaze pierced through the gloomy space, arriving before the short-haired woman.

"Boss, hello! Pioneer Squad, reporting to you!"

Her whole body shivered; she subconsciously straightened her posture and spoke.
