Chapter 362: Golden Eagle Bee Belt
Among the mountains and forests, figures of people darted out one after another, their speed like the wind, sweeping up fallen leaves all over the ground.
Boiling Affinity Power surged within this towering Golden Dragon Peak; from afar, it looked like a tiny speck of light on the body of a giant beast.
The figures of Li Luo and the other two leaped through the forest; none of the three spoke, merely circulating their Affinity Power to move at full speed. Although in terms of Affinity Power level, the three of them were the weakest layer here, their Affinity Ranks held some advantage: Qin Qin Zhulu was Upper Eighth Grade, Lu Qing'er was Lower Eighth Grade, and Li Luo even possessed dual Affinities. So if they truly clashed head-on, the strength of the three of them could reach the upper-middle tier among many teams. And if one added the three newly acquired Golden Line White Eye Treasures, they would surely have the capital to fight any team they encountered.
"There is about ten minutes left before we enter the 'Golden Eagle Bee' interception zone!" Suddenly, Lu Qing'er's voice came through.
Li Luo and Qin Qin Zhulu's eyes tightened; they looked up toward the high forest and indeed saw a golden cloud belt appearing there. That cloud belt seemed to be drifting, but if one observed closely, one would discover it contained countless golden birds and beasts.
Li Luo raised his hand, signaling the team to prepare for a hard breakthrough.
Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
As they approached, countless chirping sounds gathered and came like thunder. Li Luo also saw those "Golden Eagle Bees" clearly: their bodies were entirely golden, with slender mouthparts that appeared unusually sharp, and their dense, swarming numbers made one's scalp go numb.
"Prepare to charge!"
Li Luo let out a loud shout, and then Qin Qin Zhulu stepped forward. He emitted a low roar and directly activated his Golden-Eating Demon Tiger Affinity. His body expanded several times over at that moment; golden tiger stripes surfaced on his body, muscles knotted, appearing extremely visually impactful.
Li Luo and Lu Qing'er were positioned behind him; the three maintained their formation and charged straight into the interception zone formed by the "Golden Eagle Bees."
And at the instant the three charged in, countless "Golden Eagle Bees" shrieked toward them; those sharp mouthparts directly stabbed fiercely at Qin Qin Zhulu.
Qin Qin Zhulu held the Chi Hei Se Zhong heavy spear, sweeping its spear light across and smashing whole swaths of Golden Eagle Bees into meat paste. Li Luo and Lu Qing'er also acted to assist, clearing away the approaching Golden Eagle Bees.
But the number of Golden Eagle Bees was too great, and as a target, Qin Qin Zhulu naturally attracted the strongest firepower, so Golden Eagle Bees constantly penetrated the three's defenses, their sharp mouthparts directly stabbing into Qin Qin Zhulu's body surface.
After the mouthparts stabbed into Qin Qin Zhulu's body, these Golden Eagle Bees would die directly amidst their struggles, but those sharp mouthparts remained on Qin Qin Zhulu's body like slender needles.
In a short moment, Qin Qin Zhulu's body was studded with sharp mouthparts.
And his face was also subtly distorted; although these mouthparts did not cause too severe injuries, they were truly... painful.
Qin Qin Zhulu let out a low roar; Affinity Power surged, and those mouthparts on his body were instantly shot outward, leaving individual blood marks with blood flowing out.
"Qing'er, stop the bleeding!" Li Luo immediately shouted.
Lu Qing'er slapped her palm onto Qin Qin Zhulu's body; Ice Affinity Power flowed, turning into faint frost that covered all those wounds completely.
Li Luo also circulated the healing power contained within his own Affinity Power, surging into Qin Qin Zhulu's body to rapidly restore those injuries.
Sensing the restoration of those injuries, Qin Qin Zhulu also secretly breathed a sigh of relief; these two supporters were quite reliable. With their assistance, he could endure the front much more easily.
So he waved the heavy spear again, his figure charging forward like a giant beast, smashing through countless Golden Eagle Bees and rushing directly toward the direction of the peak top.
While Li Luo followed behind, his gaze constantly observed all directions. At this time, other teams had all broken into this area; for a moment, the sounds of crying for fathers and mothers never stopped, presumably all being tormented badly by these Golden Eagle Bees.
However, his vision focused more on the distant front.
There, a blood-light figure was shuttling rapidly through the Golden Eagle Bees. This Lin Suo seemed to have cultivated some Affinity Art that could make his figure intangible, so the attacks of those Golden Eagle Bees could be largely immune against him, which made him almost far ahead.
Moreover, Li Luo could feel that Lin Suo's speed was gradually increasing. He was obviously trying to leave everyone else far behind; in that case, when he reached the peak top, he could trigger the energy barrier, and then everyone else would be isolated beneath the peak top.
He would then be able to obtain the Golden Dragon Bowing to the Mountain Invitation safely and smoothly.
Li Luo's brows furrowed slightly; Lin Suo's speed passing through the Golden Eagle Bee belt was even faster than he had thought.
The strength of the third transformation of the Affinity Manifestation stage indeed held all the advantages here.
As time passed, the three of Li Luo continued advancing, and the sharp mouthpart spikes on Qin Qin Zhulu's body were pulled out batch after batch.
The sounds of crying for fathers and mothers around also weakened greatly; that was because many people could not hold on and were directly beaten back.
Li Luo no longer paid attention to other teams, because he found that Lin Suo's speed was becoming even more fierce. If this continued, the distance between them would be greatly widened; if Lin Suo activated the energy barrier then, perhaps they would be blocked.
So, after a few seconds of contemplation, Li Luo decisively shouted: "Qin Qin Zhulu, don armor!"
At this moment, hiding was no longer possible.
Hearing this, Qin Qin Zhulu's spirit immediately perked up. He quickly took the Black Obsidian Battle Armor out of the Space Ball, slapped it directly onto his body, and the armor, possessing a kind of spirituality, wrapped around his body, fitting perfectly without gaps.
Dark light bloomed, and Qin Qin Zhulu directly transformed into an iron tower.
Ding ding ding!
Those Golden Eagle Bees stabbed again but were all blocked by the Black Obsidian Battle Armor. Ripples of faint energy surfaced on the armor's surface; although the energy on it was being consumed, it could no longer harm Qin Qin Zhulu.
And Qin Qin Zhulu let out a violent roar; his speed skyrocketed.
The three of them rushed out, chasing straight after the blood-colored figure in the distance ahead.
Their sudden acceleration on this side made quite a stir and also attracted the attention of Lin Suo ahead. He turned his head to glance, his brows furrowing: "Truly a ghost that won't leave."
He had not expected that Li Luo and the other three would actually dare to chase him.
"Did you obtain a battle armor treasure in the Many Treasures Pool? The grade is not low." Lin Suo glanced at the black battle armor on Qin Qin Zhulu's body; it was precisely because of the existence of this armor that they could withstand the interception of the Golden Eagle Bees.
"Very well, let you see the gap between you and me."
Lin Suo sneered coldly. In the next instant, blood light on his body blazed intensely, and his speed suddenly rose to the extreme. At this speed, after only a few short minutes, he directly broke through the interception zone of the Golden Eagle Bees.
And at the moment Lin Suo broke through the interception zone, the heaven and earth of this peak top suddenly had energy fluctuations bloom. In the half-air, energy gathered and came, forming a light curtain that slowly fell down.
The area where the light curtain fell happened to be just outside the interception zone of the Golden Eagle Bees.
Li Luo and the other three also noticed this scene and immediately rushed at full speed.
Gradually, the distance for them to break through the interception zone was not far.
Watching the charging speed of Li Luo and the other three, Lin Suo was also somewhat surprised. Then a cold sneer appeared on his lips; he slowly raised his finger, and blood-red Affinity Power gathered at his fingertip.
"Blood Bone Finger!"
Pu!
One saw the flesh on the fingertip crack open; a segment of finger bone shot out violently, its speed astonishing, like a cannonball, even tearing the air apart.
The direction of his attack was Qin Qin Zhulu's foot.
He had also seen it: the advance of Li Luo and the other three relied on Qin Qin Zhulu tanking the front; if Qin Qin Zhulu was knocked down, Li Luo and the others would also fall into the ocean of Golden Eagle Bees.
Qin Qin Zhulu also saw that blood light shooting out, but at this moment he was already entangled by numerous Golden Eagle Bees and had no strength to counter Lin Suo's sneak attack.
Moreover, given Lin Suo's strength, even if he took it head-on, he might not be able to withstand it.
"Don't worry about it, keep charging!"
Li Luo's low voice came from behind.
Hearing this, Qin Qin Zhulu's eyes flickered; then, gritting his teeth, he charged out recklessly.
Bloodlight rushed toward them.
It was about to reach the trio's position when, suddenly, the sound of a bowstring vibrating rang out, faintly resembling a falcon's shrill cry.
An exceptionally bright white light arrow shot out from behind Qin Qin Zhulu at that moment, piercing the air directly to collide with the white bone finger.
Boom!
A surge of Phasing Force swept across, shredding the nearby Golden Eagle Bees into blood foam.
However, in the collision, the power on the white bone finger ultimately proved superior; in an instant, it shattered the light arrow.
But in that very instant, more white light arrows came shooting in with precision, one after another, crashing heavily against the white bone finger until it was finally shattered.
"Prepare to break out!"
At this moment, Qin Qin Zhulu let out a low roar; then, Phasing Force within his body exploded, and he surged forward like a great beast, tearing through the final layer of the Golden Eagle Bee barrier, leaving the space ahead suddenly open.
Li Luo and Lu Qing'er followed his figure and also broke through the interception line.
Dense swarms of Golden Eagle Bees remained behind but did not pursue further.
At this time, in the half-air, an energy barrier slowly descended behind Li Luo and the others.
And ahead of them
stood Lin Suo, a smile on his face.
