Chapter 2351

~10 min read 1,897 words

The giant axe alien spun toward Su Xiao, and wherever he passed, corpses and stones were shredded.

If it were only the giant axe alien, Su Xiao would have hundreds of ways to kill the opponent. But near the giant axe alien, there were large groups of heavy armor aliens frantically hammering the ground. They didn't need to hurt the enemy at all; just constantly smashing out earthy-yellow shockwaves was enough. After being swept by the shock, the debuff state would accumulate rapidly.

【Warning: You have endured the 'Earthquake' effect. This debuff effect has stacked 49 layers. Your stamina consumption is increased by 67%, movement speed is significantly reduced, 15% chance of dizziness, 12% chance of paralysis, 7% chance of exhaustion, 5% chance of ability interruption.】

【You are about to endure 0.27 seconds of dizziness, already exempted.】

【You have been paralyzed for 0.12 seconds.】

【You are moderately exhausted, this abnormal state is accumulating.】

【Warning: If Earthquake accumulates to 100 layers, you will be forced into a dizziness state for 0.5 seconds.】

【Warning: If Earthquake accumulates to 200 layers, you will be forced into a paralysis state for 1.2 seconds.】

This was not a judgment-type control effect, but an incidental effect produced by energy oscillation. Su Xiao could be immune to some control effects, but movement speed reduction, paralysis, exhaustion, etc., had no particularly good way to deal with.

The heavy armor troop was a pile of iron lumps with a spinning top inside. It sounded funny, but after facing it, it wasn't funny at all.

The giant axe alien's rotation was almost unstoppable. The heavy armor aliens nearby were responsible for restricting the enemy's mobility, giving him a chance to shred the enemy.

If this were a battlefield, this group of iron lumps would eventually be exhausted, but it was different inside a building.

A second giant axe alien leaped down from above. After landing, he began to spin on the spot.

Boom, boom...

The corridor roared incessantly, and waves of earthy-yellow shockwaves spread. Su Xiao dodged the heavy weapons hammered over. When he was still five meters away from a giant axe alien, he lowered his body slightly.

'Blade Dao Blade · Blue Ghost.'

The Blue Ghost slashed out, enhanced by the Green Shadow King. The speed and slashing power were not on the same concept as usual. Slashing this blade made Su Xiao's exhaustion state even more severe.

With a 'shhh' sound, a large head wrapped in a metal helmet flew up. The giant axe alien's rotation speed slowed down, and finally, he collapsed to the ground with a boom. This big guy with three hearts finally stopped.

Bang, bang.

Two more giant axe aliens leaped down from above. Su Xiao was having a hard time here, and Tasha and Poison Claw were no better. The heavy armor troop was an indiscriminate attack. Except for the heavy armor aliens, other aliens would be affected by that kind of earthy-yellow shockwave.

Tasha was on the verge of exhaustion, leaning against the wall on the inner side of the corridor, with Poison Claw lying on the ground seriously injured beside her. A large group of heavy armor aliens blocked in front of them, like a steel wall.

Among the aliens' means to deal with strong enemies, Tasha, the giant ape, and Poison Claw were not the strongest. The heavy armor troop on the fourth floor was the trump card.

The main reason they were arranged on the fourth floor was to prevent them from accidentally injuring that special alien. Their fighting style was too fierce, and it was easy to tear down the entire fortress. In fact, the building structure of the fourth floor was sturdier than the fifth floor.

Because the hole in the ceiling was getting bigger and bigger, more and more heavy armor aliens jumped down, but they didn't care at all whether they would hurt their own people, constantly smashing out earthy-yellow shockwaves.

Clang, clang, clang.

The spinning giant axe constantly slashed on Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan. Su Xiao held Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan horizontally in front of him. He was already in a corner at this time. In front of him were the corpses of several heavy armor aliens. They didn't die at Su Xiao's hands but were shredded by three giant axe aliens. Their bodies were torn apart, and fresh blood was brought up by the tornado.

The long sword in Su Xiao's hand slashed continuously, and crisscrossing blade lights slashed out. The giant axe alien closest to him had armor fragments splashing everywhere. In the broken armor, there was a mixture of fresh blood and minced meat.

If someone else were covering the retreat, they would have already been turned into minced meat by the giant axe aliens. The heavy armor aliens basically had no tactics; they just rushed up in a swarm, cooperating with that kind of earthy-yellow shock, attacking frantically, not caring at all whether they hurt friendly forces, whether they would die, etc. Their only goal was to kill the enemy by any means.

Thud~

More than a dozen earthy-yellow shockwaves swept over. Su Xiao's body was numb, and the spinning giant axe attacked.

Crystals splashed. In the giant axe storm, the crystal layer on Su Xiao's body shattered rapidly. In a very short time, he was slashed more than a dozen times by the giant axe.

With a 'click', the crystal layer on Su Xiao's body shattered. The cold sensation first came from his shoulder—this was the feeling after being slashed—followed by his side waist and lower leg.

Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan was nailed to the ground. Su Xiao's left arm lifted, and Banishing clung to his left hand. The strength of Banishing was far higher than the crystal layer, but the protection range was small.

With a 'clatter', Su Xiao's left hand grabbed the spinning giant axe. He had won; 10 minutes were up.

In the first 5 minutes, Su Xiao hammered the three Tier 6 big bosses. But in the 5 minutes of entanglement with the heavy armor troop, he was not lightly injured. It was unwise to fight the heavy armor troop head-on inside the fortress building.

Click~

Su Xiao's hand crushed the giant axe. The giant axe alien didn't stop, continuing to spin with an iron rod. Because the axe head was broken, he lost his balance and actually spun toward the heavy armor aliens behind him.

If trapped here, Su Xiao would be exhausted to death by the heavy armor aliens + giant axe aliens. Their number was in the thousands. Even if many were led away by the Mad Doctor, there were still more than three thousand left. These heavy armor aliens were not meant to be dealt with inside a building at all. Their shortcomings of being clumsy and having slow movement speed were perfectly compensated by their numbers and terrain.

Taking advantage of the giant axe alien spinning backward, the blue flames on Su Xiao's body dissipated, and the Hunter Moment was activated.

Su Xiao disappeared on the spot. The next moment, he appeared in front of Poison Claw and slashed his head off. In Su Xiao's view, it didn't matter whether the female fission-type species died or not; Poison Claw had to die.

Fresh blood splashed. Poison Claw's arm lifted, and a fluctuation spread toward Su Xiao—it was that disgusting restriction ability again.

Before being affected, Su Xiao had already pierced through space and moved above the corpse of a giant axe alien.

Shifting his gaze, Su Xiao looked at Crimson · Tasha. Their eyes met, and Tasha's breathing stifled.

Su Xiao relied on Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan to pierce through space and successfully picked up the 9 epic treasure chests on the ground. There were 12 epic treasure chests in total, but 3 of them were between the heavy armor aliens and couldn't be picked up.

Fortunately, Su Xiao picked up the 2 Holy Spirit-level treasure chests dropped by the giant ape. Counting the merit points obtained, this cover-retreat was dangerous and he was not lightly injured, but it was very profitable.

If the Dean and the others knew Su Xiao's situation at this time, they would definitely be dumbfounded. It was good enough not to die in such a cover-retreat, but to be able to make a profit—that was simply incredible.

This was the combat power Su Xiao had only after awakening the Green Shadow King. Otherwise, just dealing with the combination of Tasha and the three Tier 6 big bosses would have left Su Xiao with no spare energy. After the heavy armor troop arrived, he would have had an 80% chance of dying here.

The more powerful one was, the more resources one obtained, becoming even stronger, starting a virtuous cycle.

Continuously using Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan, Su Xiao arrived at the first underground floor of the fortress. He didn't retreat immediately. In an exhausted state, continuously using Zhan Checking Zhan Long Shan would lead to even more severe exhaustion.

In this battle, the only thing Su Xiao couldn't figure out was that Poison Claw, as a big boss-level enemy, didn't drop a treasure chest. After killing Poison Claw, Su Xiao obtained a black meat ball. This thing was named 【Unknown Biological Tissue】, and its specific function was unknown.

Moreover, after killing Poison Claw, Su Xiao only gained 85 merit points, which was a big gap compared to the giant ape. In Su Xiao's perception, the giant ape was indeed stronger than Poison Claw, but not by much.

Poison Claw's aura was different from the giant ape and Tasha. That feeling was like his potential had been severely overdrawn.

With doubts in his heart, Su Xiao's escape speed was not slow. A few seconds later, he arrived under the city wall of the fortress through continuous space penetration, with Bubu Wang and Baha already there to meet him.

Inside the fifth underground floor of the fortress, the battle stopped. Tasha sat by the wall with dead eyes, and those heavy armor aliens stood on the spot like cold machines.

"Did we lose?"

Tasha lowered her head, her hands trembling. She, Anjidu, and Poison Claw had once sworn to the King that the 'Meteorite Stone' would have no problems, but now...

Their three commanders, over a hundred elite fission-type species, and over ten thousand heavy armor troops were guarding, but the result was that two commanders were slaughtered, over 70% of the elite fission-type species died, and the heavy armor troop's blockade indeed injured the enemy but didn't play a key role. All 9 Meteorite Stones were lost.

Crimson · Tasha really couldn't think of how she should report to the Alien King.

"Lost so thoroughly, what face do I have to see the King."

Tasha raised the hand holding the sword and pressed the chipped blade against her neck. She no longer had the face to see the Alien King. She would leave this body to the tribe for other parasitic species to use. As for herself, she would pay the price for this failure.

"Tasha, what do you want to do?"

A voice appeared in Tasha's mind, and her body trembled.

"King."

Tasha lowered her head. The crushing defeat was an indisputable fact. No matter what words were used to sophistry, it couldn't cover up this fact.
