Chapter 2023: You Might Die

The Apocalypse Paradise group advanced toward the inner side of the spaceship. After passing through three air pressure doors, they arrived safely in the inner cabin.

"Safe."

A perception-type Qiyuezhe walked at the very front to avoid the group stepping into traps. This man was thin and moved extremely agilely.

Ten tank-type Qiyuezhe formed three rows and slowly advanced forward, followed by a large group of support and melee Qiyuezhe, while the ranged Qiyuezhe at the very back were like onlookers—at least for now, they were in this state of mind.

"Hoo~"

Kulong let out a long breath. He was most worried that the enemy had already set up traps, just waiting for them to step in voluntarily.

In reality, Su Xiao hadn't set up anything at all. His original plan was to observe first. If the situation in the Qiyuezhe camp was very tricky, he would consider joining a native major force, and then rely on alchemy to quickly gain status in that force, thereby bringing a large group of native powerhouses to besiege the Qiyuezhe camp.

But after seeing the terrain of the captain's room and the C-shaped corridor, he dismissed this idea. He could defend this place; at least before he died, no one could step into the captain's room.

To hold the C-shaped corridor, one needs very strong individual combat power. As it happens, Su Xiao is ranked first in the Tier 5 Paradise Arena, so he chose a faster, more efficient plan: a head-on confrontation.

The inner cabin was very quiet. The Apocalypse Qiyuezhe were silent. Kulong arrived at the air pressure door on the inner side of the inner cabin, pressed his hand virtually on the identification device beside the door, and held out three fingers, signaling to open the door in three seconds.

'Three, two, one.'

With a 'pop', Kulong's hand pressed on the identification device, and the air pressure door opened with a 'swish'. Kulong flashed to the side of the door. Although he was a tank, he needed to command the overall situation, so he couldn't join the first wave of the charge.

The three tanks at the very front tightened their bodies, one of whom was even grinding his teeth from nervousness.

"Charge!"

A healing-type girl in the third wave shouted. Her shout startled the three tanks in the front row, making them shiver.

"What are you screaming for, ghost."

A tank holding a crystal shield and wearing a micro-kinetic exoskeleton roared.

"Sorry, too excited."

The healing-type girl stuck out her tongue and hid in the crowd.

The air pressure door behind continued straight, with nothing there. The Apocalypse group continued to move forward, arriving at the second air pressure door. This air pressure door not only required scanning the brand but also had a biological identification function.

Kulong pressed his hand on it, and the air pressure door opened wide. A five-meter-wide metal corridor appeared, slightly curved, unable to see the situation at the end.

The three tanks leading the charge were about to walk in when the perception-type from before spoke.

"Someone is inside."

The thin perception-type spoke, his expression serious.

"Brother, the distance is so close, we perceived it too."

"Eh?"

The perception-type was a bit surprised because the aura at the end of the C-shaped corridor was not easy to perceive.

"The blood energy is floating out, we aren't blind. Be vigilant, the opponent is very strong."

Kulong's shout had just ended when more than a dozen energies of different colors entered the ten tanks. They had already changed their formation, with 4 in the front row, 3 in the second row, and 3 in the third row.

Ten tanks formed three layers of shield walls and began to advance toward the C-shaped corridor.

"Life... Chain."

A healing-type girl wearing a gorgeous robe and with a tall figure raised her staff high. Golden chains emerged within her body, passing through the bodies of the tanks one by one without any obstruction.

"Don't be hit in vital points, and no one will die. Absolutely do not have your head slashed off, otherwise the Life Chain will break."

The healing-type girl knelt on the ground, using 'Life Chain' on the ten tanks, which caused a huge burden on her. Life Chain connected the life force of the ten people. To push these ten main tanks back, one needed terrifying attack power.

The golden chains gradually became translucent, and the ten tank-type Qiyuezhe received a prompt at the same time.

【You are in a state of shared health points, you can actively leave this state.】

【Sacred Health Points: 1000%.】

The ten tanks looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became subtle.

"Heh~"

"After this battle, leave each other's brand numbers. Let's cooperate often in the future."

The confidence of the ten tanks could be said to have doubled. They now not only became a whole, but also had a group of healers behind them.

"Advance!"

A main tank at the very front roared, and the three teammates beside him stepped forward at the same time.

Boom, boom, boom...

The tank group was like a barrier. Although their speed was slow, every step they took was very steady—immovable as a mountain, moving like Mount Tai pressing down.

The Qiyuezhe behind the tanks didn't rashly enter the C-shaped corridor, causing congestion. This basic combat literacy, they still had.

The ten tanks advanced step by step. Their feet took root as soon as they landed, seemingly not intending to retreat a single step after advancing, giving people a heavy, determined feeling.

Holding a crystal shield, the tank walking at the very front took a deep breath. His gaze was fixed on the front. As they moved forward, they soon arrived at the middle of the C-shaped corridor.

Located in the C-shaped corridor, a man holding a longblade and wearing a black long leather coat stood there.

"Charge..."

Before this 'charge' could be fully shouted, dense blade auras slashed toward them. The blade auras were pale blue, so dense that they blocked the vision of the four tanks.

Clang, clang, clang, clang...

Metal collision sounds were endless. The four tanks at the very front hid their bodies behind their shields, and huge forces were transmitted to the hands gripping the shields.

The healers outside the C-shaped corridor became nervous. They kept their eyes fixed on the sacred health points of the ten tanks.

"Retreat!"

A somewhat shrill shout came from the corridor.

In the middle of the C-shaped corridor, the tank holding a crystal shield with a scar on his chin shouted. The reason Scar Brother shouted so shrilly was because the durability of his shield was sliding like flowing water. It wouldn't take 5 seconds for the shield to break.

It wasn't just Scar Brother; the other three tanks had the same feeling. The blade auras slashing from the front were not probing at all; their penetrating power was very strong.

On the inner side of the corridor, Su Xiao stopped swinging his blade. He stepped on the metal ground and charged out directly.

Su Xiao stepped forward a few times. If it were just one tank, he would rely on sword technique to kill the tank instantly, but the situation clearly wasn't that, but a group of tanks pressing forward.

Wood Spirit clung to the Scarlet Angel combat boots, both abilities fully activated, plus the bonus of the melee combat grandmaster.

Wood Spirit · Equipment Effect 2: Wood Savagery (Active), Wood Spirit can wrap around the arm or foot. If the next attack doesn't use a weapon, it will cause Strength Attribute x4 attack, knock-fly, knock-back, etc. effects.

Scarlet Angel +13 · Equipment Effect: Destruction (Passive): Total intensity of kicking-type attacks +93%, and comes with armor-shattering, shield violent destruction, strength explosion, internal organ crushing, forced knock-back/knock-fly effects.

Su Xiao stopped abruptly in front of a main tank holding an alloy shield. The alloy shield in the other party's hand was at least 20 centimeters thick and looked extremely sturdy.

Strength was born from the ground. Very shallow footprints appeared on the metal ground under Su Xiao's feet. The strength was first transmitted to his waist, then poured into his right leg, gathering in his right lower leg and foot.

Su Xiao kicked straight, kicking onto the alloy shield.

Dong!!

A deafening roar came. The tanks on both sides of the alloy shield felt a buzz in their ears.

Su Xiao's foot kicked straight onto the alloy shield. Everything seemed to slow down. The alloy shield dented from the center, shattered with the dent as the center, and the three gems embedded on it couldn't bear the load and exploded with a 'crack'.

With a 'whoosh', metal fragments splattered. Su Xiao kicked the alloy shield to pieces and kicked the chest of the main tank behind the alloy shield.

After the 'crackling' sound of broken bones, the main tank's body arched like a shrimp, and he spat out blood with a 'wow'.

The impact spread, and the main tank kicked by Su Xiao flew backward instantly. He first hit the two rows of tanks behind him, then hit the corner of the metal corridor with a 'bang'.

Because the attached kinetic energy was too strong, the main tank bounced off diagonally, leaving only a splash-shaped bloodstain on the metal wall.

Rolling and bouncing, this main tank returned to the entrance of the corridor. He lay on the ground, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. Because he flew out, those healers all retreated to the entrance of the corridor.

"Heal, heal me..."

Lying on the ground, the dying main tank spoke, and then those healing-type girls all silently turned their heads away.

"Brother, the body below your chest... didn't come back."

The corners of Kulong's eyes were twitching violently because the tank... was killed instantly with one kick. That so-called sacred health points didn't play any role at all; that thing was just life force contribution and couldn't make people immortal.

Clang, clang, clang...

The crisp sound of slashing came. Circular blade auras and cyan-blue slash auras flew out, slashing on the metal wall in the middle of the corridor, emitting crisp sounds.

After two short screams, a total of seven tanks crawled out of the corner of the corridor, full of horror, some even discarding their shields.

Swish.

A large amount of blood splashed out from behind the corner of the corridor, spraying on the wall. An arm full of blood reached out, trembling.

"Save..."

Ding~

A sharp weapon pierced the ground, and that arm hung down powerlessly, being dragged back behind the corner of the corridor. The Apocalypse Paradise Qiyuezhe who witnessed this scene all swallowed their saliva in unison, and a chill surged from the bottom of their hearts.
