Chapter 79 Sweeping the Dragon Elephant Group
Chapter 79 Sweeping the Dragon Elephant Group (6k)
"The strongest of the three lord-level monsters that we have clearly observed should be a high-level lord, and the other two are medium-level lords. Based on their appearance, we named them Giant Dragon Elephant, Black Scale King Snake, and Tiger-headed Queen Bee."
"These three lord-level monsters are now busy subduing the surrounding monster groups, and they don't have much energy to focus on our base city. The monsters they sent are more like 'training troops'. And we speculate that there should be a lord-level monster behind these siege monsters, but we haven't found any trace of it yet."
"It seems that these monsters are quite difficult to deal with." Yang Yu looked at the appearance of the monsters displayed on the tablet handed over by Lu Feng.
Among them, the giant dragon elephant, which is tens of meters long and nearly ten meters high, gives people a strong sense of oppression. The black-scaled king cobra is more like a mutated and enlarged version of the rat snake, but its body is covered with thick black scales and its fangs are also very scary.
As for the Tiger Bee Queen, although its strength is only that of a mid-level lord, it is the first flying lord-level monster that Yang Yu has encountered.
The strongest flying monsters Yang Yu had encountered in the air before were only at the high-level beast general level. As long as they didn't get into trouble, Yang Yu was too lazy to kill them.
As for the giant hornet queen in front of him, which was more than ten meters long and covered in black, yellow and gold, it should be flying very fast, and it also had the airspace advantage. It would be very difficult for Yang Yu to approach it silently, so he was afraid that he could only attack head-on.
But if he fails to kill them with lightning speed and one or two of them escape, by the time Yang Yu is no longer here, the Southwest Base City might be attacked by a lord-level monster leading a tide of beasts.
"The other two land monsters are easy to deal with, but this Hornet Queen is a bit difficult to deal with." Yang Yu handed the tablet back. "This way, my advantage in the air is gone. If I can't sneak past them, I can only fight head-on. It's hard to guarantee that these lord-level monsters won't escape."
Although Yang Yu is very powerful now, the speed of the lord-level monster is also very fast, and he may escape if he is not careful.
"That's a problem." Lei Shen frowned upon hearing this. "Now these lord-level monsters haven't gone crazy yet. If you, Xiaoyu, don't wipe them out completely, the monsters that escaped will definitely come back with crazy revenge. If you're not here at that time, we'll face a lot of pressure."
Although Thor is not afraid of the beast tide, the ordinary people in the base city behind him and the soldiers with average physical fitness have very little chance of survival when facing the endless beast tide.
"This point indeed needs to be discussed in detail." Lu Feng now also realized that the problem was thorny. As the god of war of Jiangnan Base City, Yang Yu naturally could not stay here for a long time.
And although this place is not far from Jiangnan Base City, it still takes time to get here.
Facing a truly crazy tide of beasts, Lu Feng honestly had no confidence in holding on!
The monsters attacking the base city now are only a small part.
Once a vengeful lord-level monster gathers a large number of ordinary monsters, the pressure of defense will be particularly great.
The terrain in the southwest is mostly mountainous areas, rivers, and lakes. There have always been many animal species, including many insects and aquatic animals. The number of these animals is even more exaggerated after mutation. After the mutant creatures are formed, new monster species appear every day.
"How about this, it's almost dark now, let's discuss it in detail, it won't be too late to deal with these monsters tomorrow." Lu Feng said as he looked at the sky outside which was already darkening.
"And Xiaoyu, you must be tired after the long journey. It's a good opportunity for us to have a meal together. You can rest and get your spirits up to prepare for tomorrow's battle."
As Lu Feng spoke, he called his subordinates and told them to prepare dinner.
"Then I'd better obey your command. Night is really not good for my fighting. So let these monsters live one more night."
After running around for a whole day and not having eaten anything along the way, Yang Yu did feel a little hungry.
Before reaching the planetary level, both warriors and spiritualists need to eat and breathe.
Dinner was quickly arranged.
It's obvious that the chef is very attentive. The table is not only filled with special delicacies from the southwest region, but also many of the best parts of monsters.
For example, the most tender heart and liver of the iron-haired wild boar, the ribs of the mutant bull, snake soup, etc.
These were all delicacies that Yang Yu had never eaten before.
The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.
After eating and drinking, Yang Yu, Lu Feng and Lei Shen returned to the conference room again, drinking tea and discussing tomorrow's battle.
"Xiao Yu, how confident are you that you can kill a high-level lord-level dragon elephant?" Lu Feng couldn't help but ask curiously.
"If it doesn't escape in advance, I'm 100% sure!" Yang Yu said confidently.
With his current mental strength and the Thunder Field he has mastered, he is confident that he can kill a high-level lord monster alone.
Of course, the premise is that the opponent has not run away in advance. In the mountainous terrain such as the southwest region, Yang Yu’s flying advantage is not as great as imagined, and his running speed on land will not be much faster than that of high-level lord-level monsters.
"100% sure!" Lu Feng and Lei Shen's eyes lit up when they heard this. "Since we are 100% sure, then the next step will be much easier. In fact, the biggest threat to our base city is this giant dragon elephant with the strength of a high-level lord. If we get rid of it, the threat will be reduced by at least half!"
"Indeed, now as long as I am given a weapon that is hard and sharp enough, I will not be afraid even when facing a medium-level lord-level monster. The only thing I need to worry about is that giant dragon elephant." Thor said happily.
"Then our goal is clear. Xiaoyu, your first target tomorrow will be the giant dragon elephant. As long as we kill it, we can use its body materials to tailor a set of weapons and equipment for the God of Thunder. Then we won't have to worry about an attack from a medium-level lord monster." Lu Feng said excitedly.
"As for the flying Tiger Queen Bee, there's no need to worry too much. Our air defense system and high-precision missiles are not to be trifled with. As long as it doesn't land, it won't pose much of a threat to the base city. Once it lands, Xiao Lei's strength will definitely give it a surprise."
After hearing what Lu Feng said, Yang Yu also had an idea in his mind, "Okay, I will make sure to kill the giant dragon elephant tomorrow. I will do my best to kill the remaining lord-level monsters. I will kill as many as I can and try my best to reduce the pressure on Brother Feng and the others."
After briefly discussing countermeasures, the three of them began chatting again.
After all, even Thor can't intervene in the battle with high-level monsters at this stage.
And based on Yang Yu’s recent battle record, he can indeed handle it alone.
If one more person joins in, it might affect Yang Yu's fighting rhythm and have a counterproductive effect.
Lei Shen and Lu Feng, both experienced warriors, are very clear about this.
And after getting to know him better, they also discovered that although Yang Yu was very young, he was very mature and did things flawlessly.
It makes them feel very relieved.
After chatting with Lei Shen and Lu Feng for a while, Yang Yu came to the lounge specially prepared for him. He first meditated to absorb the energy of the universe, and then sat cross-legged in meditation.
In meditation.
There were flashes of lightning around Yang Yu.
This is a strange phenomenon caused by the external spiritual power that stimulates the energy of heaven and earth through the thunderous mood.
In such deep meditation, Yang Yu's understanding of "Thunder" became deeper and deeper.
Time quickly came to the next day.
After breakfast, Yang Yu put on his armor, carried his equipment, and flew out of the base city on his shield under the watchful eyes of Lei Shen, Lu Feng and other soldiers and officers.
Because he had a clear target and the existence of the Tiger Bee Queen, Yang Yu did not deliberately hide his figure when searching for these lord-level monsters.
Based on the locations provided by Lu Feng, the locations of these lord monsters can only be roughly determined.
This is also a characteristic of the terrain in the southwest region. Even satellites and drones cannot monitor the entire area well.
Finally, after Yang Yu's careful search, he found a giant dragon elephant with a length of tens of meters and a height of nearly ten meters and a giant black-scaled king snake over a hundred meters long in a mountain dam from high altitude.
As for the Tiger Bee Queen and another unknown lord monster, they are not here.
Perhaps because of the huge racial differences, the two monsters did not reproduce.
After all, no matter how elephants and snakes mutate, they can never be together.
At this time, the two monsters were lying leisurely in the sun, absorbing and refining the energy of the universe.
They are already invincible in this area and are now enjoying life.
Seeing the defenseless monster below, Yang Yu sneered, chose a place covered by dense woods and slowly descended.
During the descent, Yang Yu did not find any trace of the other two lord monsters. Perhaps they were sent out by the dragon elephant to expand their territory.
However, in order to end the battle quickly, Yang Yu did not hesitate too much. After descending to the ground, he used all his strength to exert his mental power containing the artistic conception of thunder to wrap his whole body. After completely concealing his own breath, he carefully floated forward.
During this period, they encountered some patrolling high-level beast general-level monsters. Yang Yu dodged and avoided them whenever possible.
If the opponent really can't dodge, control the flying knife and kill him instantly with the force of thunder.
The extreme speed of twenty times the speed of sound combined with the flying knife that contained the artistic conception of thunder, these high-level beast general-level monsters had no power to resist.
Also because of Yang Yu's further in-depth understanding of the realm of thunder, even though the speed of the flying knife now far exceeds the speed of sound, it can be wrapped in the field of thunder without making a sonic boom.
At this time, the giant dragon elephant and the black-scaled king snake were still immersed in the warm morning sunshine and the cosmic energy that continued to flow into every part of their bodies.
After Yang Yu quietly killed several high-level beast general-level monsters that he could not get around, he was now only a hundred meters away from the giant dragon elephant.
This position is facing away from the giant dragon elephant and the black-scaled king snake, and is in their blind spot.
But if Yang Yu wanted to launch a surprise attack at this position, he could only hit the opponent's back.
Looking at the back of the giant dragon elephant reflecting the khaki color in the sunlight, Yang Yu knew without even trying that its defense must be amazing.
It is not certain whether a flying knife made of the same material as a high-level lord-level blue-armored dragon can instantly break through the defense.
In order to kill it with one blow, Yang Yu was still prepared to attack the vital parts of the dragon elephant.
Such as ears, eyes, nose and so on.
Qian Wusheng moved closer to the upper side again, and Yang Yu went around behind the huge ear of the dragon elephant.
Yang Yu is ready to take action!
At this time, the giant dragon elephant and the black-scaled king snake still did not notice the enemy approaching. After all, there were so many subordinates patrolling the outer layer, and their own strength was the strongest within a thousand miles, so there was really no need to worry. It was this arrogance that made them less vigilant, which allowed Yang Yu to easily touch their rear and have the opportunity to kill them in one fell swoop.
Seeing the giant dragon-elephant leisurely flapping its big ears and snorting while practicing, Yang Yu silently controlled the six flying knives to float.
As the giant dragon elephant flapped its big ears, Yang Yu's eyes turned cold.
"call out!"
The six flying knives turned into streams of light and instantly flew across a distance of a hundred meters, shooting towards the ears of the giant dragon elephant.
"Ding~"
A sound of metallic collision was heard. It turned out that the giant dragon elephant sensed something was wrong at the critical moment and instinctively closed its huge ears.
"Missed!"
All six flying knives were blocked by the dragon elephant's amazingly defensive ears, and none of them penetrated its ears.
The flying knife with the greatest piercing power only sank deeply into the dragon elephant's ear.
Perhaps this giant dragon elephant was lucky. At such a short distance and with such a fast attack speed of the flying knife, it was lucky enough to close its ears and save its life.
The moment the flying knife was blocked, Yang Yu burst out with extreme speed and moved towards the upper right, while controlling three flying knives to kill the black-scaled king snake. The remaining three flying knives continued to turn into streams of light and shot towards the eyes, nose and other parts of the giant dragon elephant.
The giant dragon elephant and the black-scaled king snake discovered the enemy and instantly moved closer together. Under the threat of life and death, the speed of these two lord monsters was astonishingly fast.
Almost as soon as Yang Yu pulled back the flying knife and prepared to attack again, the two of them leaned against each other.
The dragon elephant also swung its long trunk at a high speed to try to defend against the flying knife that could penetrate any hole.
After all, the flying knives that turned into streams of light posed too great a threat to them.
Although the six flying knives did not directly penetrate the dragon elephant's ears, the huge impact force still caused severe damage to its ears. If it were to be hit again on the wound, it would definitely not be able to withstand it.
"Ding! Ding!"
Two metallic collision sounds were heard. It turned out that the two flying knives that were attacking the giant dragon elephant were deflected by the elephant's trunk.
But at this time, Yang Yu was not angry but happy.
Because Yang Yu did this on purpose!
He deliberately slowed down the control of two of the three flying knives a little to allow them to be blocked, but the third flying knife was infused with all of Yang Yu's mental power and thunder perception.
Just as the first two flying knives were blocked, the third flying knife, which had surged to its maximum speed, pierced into the dragon elephant's eyes!
Even the giant dragon elephant, which is considered to be extremely powerful among the high-level lord monsters, cannot withstand the full-strength attack of a high-level spiritualist containing all the thunder spirit at close range!
"laugh!"
Suddenly, there was a sound of blood, flesh and bones being crushed.
Then the huge body of the dragon elephant fell to the ground.
The giant dragon elephant, whose head was turned into paste, died instantly!
He saw his boss being killed as soon as he met him.
The intelligent Black Scale King Snake wanted to use the huge corpse of the dragon elephant as cover to escape.
But how could Yang Yu give it a chance?
The three flying knives that were separated earlier suddenly flashed with a flash of purple electric light, piercing through the scales on the belly of the black-scaled king snake, entering the body of the black-scaled king snake and instantly piercing its head, followed by another round of stirring.
The medium-sized lord monster Black Scale King Snake was also killed instantly!
Yang Yu was not very happy when he saw the two lord monsters falling to the ground without any breath left.
Originally he was thinking of sneaking up and launching a successful attack, but he didn't expect that the dragon elephant was so alert and lucky that it actually blocked the first attack.
Yang Yu was still not satisfied that he did not kill him with one blow.
"Still not fast enough!"
Yang Yu walked to the huge corpse of the dragon elephant and thought, "I have already touched the embryonic form of the Thunder Realm, but if I want to really use it in actual combat, I still have to break through to the planetary level."
After the battle just now, Yang Yu discovered a problem.
That is, although the flying knife, which was infused with all the thunder perception, reached an astonishing speed of 25 times the speed of sound at the last moment, it was too fast and the current telekinesis could not fully control it.
The flying knife can only be controlled to attack in a straight line, and its direction can be easily predicted and blocked.
A flying knife that has lost 100% control will only pose a limited threat no matter how fast it is.
Judging from the fact that the giant dragon elephant was able to knock down two flying knives by swinging its trunk desperately, there is indeed a lot of room for improvement.
Fortunately, Yang Yu could control three flying knives at the same time and burst out at such a high speed, so even though two of them were knocked down, one flying knife still broke through the defense of the dragon elephant and seized the opportunity to kill it.
This is the lethality of the flying knife after Yang Yu mastered the realm of thunder and touched a trace of the domain.
If he were just an ordinary high-level spiritualist, even if he could kill the giant dragon elephant, it would take a lot of effort.
It would be impossible to be as easy as Yang Yu, who killed him with just a glance and a little trick.
As for the middle-level lord-level black-scaled king snake, it is even more vulnerable.
Under the terrifying impact of twenty-five times the speed of sound, even if it cannot be 100% controlled, such a fast speed, coupled with the powerful mental power of a high-level god of war, even if the Black Scale King Snake's scales have strong defensive capabilities, it cannot escape the fate of having its defenses broken in an instant.
He controlled the flying knife to peel off the entire scales of the black-scaled king snake, as well as its most precious gallbladder, eyes, and fangs. The black-scaled king snake that once roamed the southwest was completely destroyed and became the material in Yang Yu's backpack.
Next came the materials of the giant dragon elephant. Since the giant dragon elephant was too huge, Yang Yu simply peeled off the entire skin of the giant dragon elephant, and then took out the hardest bones, teeth, ivory, skull and other materials from its body and put them into its elephant skin to pack it.
This is also because the peeled elephant skin is too large, and there are too many bones taken out from the dragon elephant. Yang Yu’s backpack can’t hold them all, so Yang Yu simply uses local materials.
After doing all this, Yang Yu used his telekinesis to lift the huge "elephant skin bag" into the air, preparing to bring it back to the Southwest Base City and give these materials to Lei Shen and Lu Feng.
Once Thor has weapons and equipment made of these top-quality materials, his combat effectiveness will instantly increase by more than ten times!
However, to Yang Yu's surprise, the hornet queen actually flew back at this time!
"It's true that there is a way to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no door to hell but you break in."
Seeing this, Yang Yu put down the elephant skin bag and rushed towards the hornet queen on the shield.
I originally wanted to kill the giant dragon elephant and the black-scaled king snake and then let the queen hornet go for the time being, but who could have thought that it would come to my door at this time.
In that case, it’s no wonder that Yang Yu’s trophies included a mid-level lord-level hornet queen.
When the huge hornet queen saw Yang Yu throw down the familiar "elephant skin", it was stunned at first.
Even with its human-like intelligence, it couldn't figure out how its boss could wrap itself up with its own skin.
But without giving it any extra time to figure out what was going on, Yang Yu stepped on his shield and rushed towards it at high speed.
He saw that Yang Yu's flying speed was even faster than his own, and there were six dangerous streams of light surrounding him.
Its reactive brain is sending out frantic warnings.
The hornet queen flapped its wings violently and wanted to escape, but at this time the distance between it and Yang Yu was less than 500 meters. The power of the flying knife at this distance was very weak and was not enough to threaten the hornet queen of the middle lord level.
But when Yang Yu found that his speed was actually faster than the desperate hornet queen bee under the cover of a trace of thunder field, he stopped panicking and chased after the fleeing hornet queen bee closely.
Although the hornet queen tried desperately to use her inherent advantages to create distance, it was obviously in vain.
Just half a minute later, Yang Yu caught up to the hornet queen to within a hundred meters.
Then he controlled the flying knife and stabbed it forward fiercely!
The flying knife, which far exceeded the flying speed of the hornet queen, instantly pierced into its body, followed by familiar operations.
As the flying knife rushed into the hornet queen's head and stirred violently, the middle-level lord-level hornet queen was killed.
Before the hornet queen, which had completely lost its life force, fell to the ground, Yang Yu used his powerful mental power to lift the hornet queen and flew back to the place where he had just killed the giant dragon elephant.
The size of the hornet queen that had mutated to a medium-level lord was not too big. It didn't take Yang Yu long to remove the useless flesh and blood from its body, and then threw it into the elephant skin bag.
After doing all this, Yang Yu glanced around the large mountain dam and found that the huge battle just now had caused all the monsters here to run away. Then he no longer paid attention to those monsters whose highest level was the high-level beast generals.
He stepped on the shield and rose into the air again, and at the same time used his telekinesis to hold up the elephant skin bag that was stuffed full of things and flew back.
At this time, in a humble deep pit somewhere in the mountain dam, the pangolin who witnessed Yang Yu killing the giant dragon elephant, the black-scaled king snake, and bringing back the corpse of the tiger-headed queen bee dared not move.
It was originally very timid, and it relied on caution along the way to barely cultivate to the primary lord level.
After seeing Yang Yu's methods, it didn't dare to steal the corpse of the dragon elephant even if it was there.
In fact, there is no point in stealing. After all, monsters fight on their own, and this timid pangolin rarely fights. It just wants to practice quietly.
This is also the reason why it did not report to the dragon elephant yesterday when it saw Yang Yu flying in the air and controlling the flying knife to harvest the beasts.
In this group of lord-level monsters, the pangolin's position is very embarrassing. It is the one doing a lot of trivial tasks, which has long made it dissatisfied.
In its heart, it even hoped that this suddenly appearing strong human would come here and kill them all.
In this way, it can go to a quiet place to practice in peace, instead of being someone else's subordinate and working illegally at risk.
As the strongest pangolin, it also has a high IQ.
After making sure that Yang Yu had dragged the corpses of its three former leaders away, the pangolin shook its slender body in satisfaction, then burrowed into the ground and fled into the distance.
"It's impossible to work. It's impossible in this life."
This wise saying was still echoing in the pangolin's mind as he left.
