Chapter 128: Giant Li Yu
Chapter 128: Li Yu becomes a giant (5k chapters)
An army composed of hundreds of extraordinary soldiers who are a fusion of flesh and blood and machines is surging towards them.
Each individual is equipped with psychic firearms, electric blades and other weapons, which are incomparable to ordinary monsters.
Not to mention that some of these special individuals exude terrifying aura, and almost all of them have reached the "Sequence Seven" level.
The leader, Shang Yang, had a drastic change in his image.
Although it is still a mechanical body, it is not cold and rigid. It seems to have transformed into a special metal material, soft like silk, shining brightly, and you can tell it is extraordinary at first glance.
On its chest, there are six gems emitting strong spiritual energy.
In his hand he held a special weapon, which looked like a spear, but the tip of the spear was more like a diamond drill.
A scarlet cape several meters long was fluttering behind him.
As he floated and flew towards them, everyone felt an indescribable sense of oppression.
"Not only has this guy upgraded and gained more soldiers, but he also brought a set of top-level equipment?"
"You're kidding me, no wonder you're so sure you can kill me."
Li Yu cursed in his heart.
At the same time, there were also actions that surprised Shang Yang and the two camps behind him.
On the surface, he was a merciless person. According to his previous behavior, once he ran into Shang Yang, who was coming with great force and obvious malicious intent, he would inevitably try to hang Shang Yang and his extraordinary army.
After all, the true god, the Hanged King, likes his believers to do this the most.
However, Li Yu did not even turn his head back, and without even wasting a breath, he turned around and dodged, his speed increased rapidly, and in the blink of an eye he ran away for an unknown distance, and soon disappeared without a trace.
This scene made everyone stunned.
Who is it?
Just ran away?
Where is the previous momentum of indiscriminate contempt for both sides and wanting to hang everyone?
Even Shang Yang's flashing mechanical eyes froze for a moment when he saw Li Yu's actions.
With his current speed, it would not be difficult for him to catch up with the "Mercyless One".
But he didn't do that!
He doesn't have to choose between robbing one person and robbing a group of people.
He led a large army and descended over the Black Vortex City with an attitude that looked down on everything.
In the city, besides him, there is also a "Black Lotus Abbot" and a "Sick Corpse", both of whom are Sequence Six.
The two looked at each other and saw the fear and helplessness in each other's eyes.
If there were other Sequence Six people who came, they would all speak up at this moment and invite him to join them in encircling and suppressing those reincarnations.
But it happened to be a disaster for the business.
Not only the two of them, but also the other four Sequence Seven Demon Star Lords did not show any joy on their faces at this time.
The reason is very simple. Shang Yang's reputation has long been infamous among all the demon star lords.
Just two expedition missions!
He has an extremely impressive record.
That is to kill at least 90% of the other leaders who entered the strange domain with them.
He also called it the survival of the fittest.
"It's really bad luck. The arrogant and merciless man left first, and the business disaster came right after."
"This guy is not worth making friends with, but we can talk first."
After the two of them whispered,
It was the Black Lotus abbot who appeared to be a young monk. He silently blocked the escape route of the reincarnationists and stepped forward to say to Shang Yang:
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Shang, for reaching Sequence 6!"
"Fellow Daoist, do you want to kill these reincarnations to complete the [Kill the Enemy] mission and snatch some supplies at the same time?"
"That's right!"
"Do you want to work together? If so, please swear an oath to the true god first."
It stands to reason that a Black Lotus Master and a sick corpse shouldn't be so polite to Shang Yang.
However, Shang Yang’s combat power is now far beyond that of an ordinary Sequence Six.
Even though he had actually just been promoted not long ago, it was no exaggeration to say that he was invincible among those at the same level.
With the support of the extraordinary army, fighting one against two is not uncommon.
He was so arrogant that he was completely blind to the temperaments of his fellow warriors, and his terrifying battle record made the six demon star lords extremely wary of him.
And the next moment, the reply from Shang Yang confirmed that their thoughts were correct.
"I don't need cooperation!"
"All you have to do is stay out of my way when I take action and try to stay as far away as possible, and you'll be safe."
"hiss"
When Shang Yang uttered those two words.
Even the Reincarnationists who were planning to use some magical powers couldn't help but look sideways.
They couldn't help but look at Shang Yang, thinking that this man's personality was even stronger than that of the Merciless Man just now. It seemed that there were not many normal people among the Demon Star Commander?
And the six commanders were so angry that they laughed.
Especially the Black Lotus abbot and the sick corpse, their faces turned cold at the same time, and murderous intent appeared in their eyes.
……
Li Yu was not aware of the subsequent movements and outcomes in the Black Vortex City behind him.
The reason why he didn't even fight Shang Yang and turned around to run away was because the extremely high inspiration in his body reminded him of the danger.
"Shang Yang obviously came prepared. I guess he started to advance as soon as he entered the strange domain, and he is also looking for materials to make explosive soldiers everywhere."
"After it was done, his combat power soared to the level of Sequence 6, invincible at the same level."
"Even if I take all the remaining Wumin Pills and Jianwan Pills, I still can't win. It's better to run away."
"But just because I can't win doesn't mean others can't. As soon as the City God on the side of the Reincarnators saw Shang Yang coming with his army, he immediately began to cast some strange spells. All the dead monsters in a large area around him began to move slightly..."
It was almost at that moment that this thought arose in Li Yu's mind.
Behind him, a huge explosion suddenly sounded in the distance.
Li Yu's curiosity was aroused, and he wanted to let the "strange rope" take him to a higher place, then turned around and looked at the Black Vortex City area from a distance.
The next moment, he saw a shocking scene.
war?
The normal development and follow-up should be that Shang Yang led the extraordinary army to encircle and suppress the reincarnations.
But what he saw at this moment was that the city was full of strange creatures and alienated citizens rioting together.
In turn, they encircled and suppressed Shang Yang and his army.
The number is extremely large, and in addition to the "ghost corpses", there are also a large number of twisted souls.
They used the flesh and blood grown within the soldiers' mechanical bodies to produce a delaying effect. They were densely packed like a quagmire, temporarily besieging Shang Yang.
Until he started to detonate the bomb with great ruthlessness and decisiveness.
The huge explosion completely submerged the Black Vortex City.
However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Qingnv, who was already a Sequence Six [Spirit Bird Priest], summoned a powerful spirit bird phantom, which wrapped up everyone and fled away.
In theory, if other leaders, such as the Black Lotus abbot and the sick corpse, could stop them during this process, it would still be difficult for all the reincarnations to escape.
But those six people didn't make any move, and some even laughed at them.
Although Li Yu couldn't hear what the six Lords were laughing at, he could vaguely guess what was happening:
"The resurrection of the strange corpse... the passage of the ghost soldiers... the ocean of ghosts... these are the classic methods of the Earth Mother Cult."
"But it's also because the army under Shang Yang's command is made of flesh-and-blood fused machines, rather than pure psychic mechanical soldiers... Otherwise, these methods would not be very effective, and would instead be suppressed by Shang Yang."
“It’s important to strike first.”
"Shang Yang didn't seem to have expected that the 'City God' would be so decisive. As soon as he saw the army of flesh and blood machines, he started casting spells the next moment."
"With the cooperation of Qingnv and the help of the six commanders, the two of them successfully led everyone out."
This time they leave.
But it is a pity for Black Vortex City, this magnificent city with exotic style, which seems to have been dragged out from ancient times.
Not long after, it was completely reduced to ruins.
……
“Hahaha…Shang Yang must have done something to make those six commanders choose to stand by and watch.”
"This guy is arrogant and regards all living things as experimental subjects. He also abides by the rules of the ancient saints: everyone except me is a tool."
"That's how the first expedition was conducted, and it's likely the same will be done the second time."
"It's normal to offend other colleagues."
"However, the reason why Miao Chang and Qing Nu were able to escape was because Shang Yang had just been promoted to Sequence Six and had not yet fully digested and mastered his combat power."
"Given a few more days, it would be too terrible."
In the blink of an eye, Li Yu made many judgments in his heart.
The smile on his face was very bright.
Of course it feels good to see your enemies in trouble.
"It's really boring to kill each other."
"In this [Twirl Country], the battle between good and evil has been relegated to branch line 2. It can be seen that the real danger lies behind..."
When this thought came to his mind, Li Yu first looked at his hands.
Dozens of "human head balloons" were squeezed, and the scene was terrifying.
But in Li Yu's view, it was wonderful.
These are all magical objects that can resist the pollution of curses.
"The mission of surviving for seven days has already passed one day."
"If we can live a few more days and successfully enter the core ruins area, we can directly escape from this strange place."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the supplies I collected should be enough."
Li Yu put all the human head balloons into the sachet. Then, regardless of anything else, he began to run towards the core area deeper in the map.
Judging from the distance shown on the map!
He had only explored a small half of this Wo Country area.
Even if we try our best to hurry, we may not be able to reach the deepest part after six days.
Li Yu did not have time to escape too far before his inspiration was triggered again. He paused as if he realized something and suddenly turned his head to look towards the horizon which was already a very distant place.
There, the "vortex" that swallowed up everything stagnated.
At least the moment he was watching was frozen.
Until the next moment!
The vortex moved.
In Li Yu's mind, a bone-chilling reminder sounded.
"The second round of [Curse Storm] is coming."
Almost in an instant, the terrifying vortex that was originally far away in the sky swallowed up a large distance in the blink of an eye.
As time passed, they swept towards Li Yu madly.
"escape!"
Li Yu cursed inwardly, turned around and continued to run away.
But no matter how fast he is, he can never be compared with the "poison circle".
Just a few dozen breaths!
Suddenly, at this moment, the storm swept in.
Li Yu only felt that his eyes went dark, and the world in front of him completely changed its color.
Some kind of invisible and intangible pollution burden directly enveloped Li Yu.
Not only did the pills he took begin to lose their effectiveness at a faster rate, the alchemist's body itself was also weakened, and the operation of the demon body technique became sluggish.
When Li Yu's face suddenly became solemn, he suddenly had several thoughts:
"Strange territory!"
"Compared to the previous two expeditions, this place can be regarded as a truly mysterious place."
"It has a terrible effect on suppressing and weakening all foreign creatures, but it can also enhance those strange creatures. It is not surprising that the death rate is high."
"Will this strange realm become the norm in the future?"
"Those who cannot pass this level, whether they are the Demon Star Lord or the Reincarnator, will die and be reborn."
It seemed to confirm what Li Yu was thinking.
He soon discovered that this second round of curse storm was different from the first.
Vortex!
The intensity of that omnipresent vortex increased by who knows how many times.
All Li Yu saw were whirlpools.
The wind, the air, the mountains, the grass, the sky, the earth...even Li Yu himself.
Waves of chill began to uncontrollably erode his body.
Li Yu has a high level of inspiration and perception.
He raised his palm, and his fingerprints and palm lines began to rotate and crawl all over his body as if they came alive.
The hair and eyebrows also curled up, the legs couldn't help but twist and tangle together, and the internal organs did the same...
Although his body can forcibly resist these pollutants, it will be fine at least for a short period of time.
But at this moment, Li Yu still felt an extremely strong sense of death crisis.
You must know that he is a real Sequence Seven Alchemist.
After just a short while in the poison circle, he was corroded so badly.
What about the next few days?
Without any hesitation, Li Yu took out a "human head balloon". The terrifying and dull head flew away in an instant, and all the pollution in Li Yu's body also flowed into the human head.
The body suddenly felt lighter.
"Sure enough!"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Yu continued on his way regardless of anything.
But when he jumped out for a distance, there was a sudden "bang" sound above his head.
The human head balloon exploded.
Blood, flesh, brain matter and broken bones fell like raindrops from the sky.
"You can only hold out for this long?"
Li Yu's expression became even uglier.
Then take out the second human head balloon and continue to move forward on the map.
At the same time, he also enhanced his perception to the extreme and observed his surroundings carefully.
Obviously Li Yu did not forget that there were new rules in the second round of curse storm: those powerful monsters that gathered the [Curse Source] could move.
This also means that everyone in the poison circle at this moment will be attacked by monsters except those from the opposing camp.
In places like this, the more you fear something, the more likely it is to come.
Just as Li Yu was holding a human head balloon and carefully avoiding an unknown area completely shrouded in swirling fog.
There were no signs!
A hand as big as a millstone, without any skin but only flesh, blood and fascia, suddenly emerged from the strange fog, grabbed Li Yu's body, and then dragged him into the fog.
At this moment, Li Yu felt the burning and highly corrosive blood, as well as the huge force that seemed to crush him.
However, both of these were blocked by the combination of Danhuo and Yaoti techniques that Li Yu subconsciously activated.
Even further, the demon's body withstood the damage, and the elixir fire burned through the opponent's palm.
When Li Yu heard a loud roar and a wail, his body slowly floated down onto a piece of the city wall.
Next breath!
He saw an extremely shocking scene.
Before my eyes was a city that seemed to exist only in my imagination. Everything in it seemed extremely huge and towering into the clouds, including the "people" inside.
Giants that looked like the "female troll" that Li Yu had killed before were wandering around the city.
They were all extremely ugly, hideous and twisted.
Some have skin, some don't.
In Li Yu's mind, the long-lost task reminder sounds suddenly began to sound one after another:
"Congratulations to the Commander codenamed 'Evil Star' for triggering the side quest 1: [Opening up the wasteland]."
"We have discovered a new, undeveloped area. The Master of the Star of Misfortune has the right to name it. If it is not named within ten breaths, a name will be automatically generated."
"The Lord has received a merit reward of 800 points."
"The Lord may explore this place... When you leave, a new map mark and notes will be generated."
"Depending on the degree of completion of the land reclamation, the commander will also receive different merit points."
……
"Congratulations to the Commander codenamed 'Evil Star' for successfully triggering the side quest [Sacrifice the Cursed Essence]."
"There are unknown monsters ahead. Some of them are carriers of cursed essence. You can get merit points by sacrificing them."
"At the same time, the Lord also has the right to name this strange creature."
……
"The Lord has been contaminated by an unknown curse... The Lord can describe it... The Lord has the right to name it..."
……
At this moment, Li Yu was bombarded by the prompt sound.
Judging from these sentences, he has become very rich.
Triggering new tasks, merit points, and naming rights all sound like great benefits.
But Li Yu had no time to pay attention to it, let alone describe and name it.
When he saw these terrifying giants, they naturally saw Li Yu as well.
They all roared and rushed towards him.
What caught him off guard was!
The curse infection in his body developed extremely quickly.
Li Yu only felt as if an endless amount of "burning steam" was generated in his body, filling his limbs, bones, every inch of flesh and blood, and even every cell.
He began to swell up. This was a completely illogical turn of events.
Li Yu began to become a giant.
The clothes turned to ashes in an instant, as if countless steam engines were working together. In the surging hot air, a naked, muscular giant was born.
During this process, Li Yu also felt extremely horrific pain, as well as an unimaginable desire for bloodthirstiness and destruction.
He was certain that even a true "Sequence Six" level practitioner would find it difficult to remain rational during this transformation.
But Li Yu did it.
The last bit of his sanity was like an insurmountable barrier, insurmountable and indestructible.
It was precisely because of this that he did not use the two pills, [Wu Mian] and [Jian Wan], nor did he take out the human head balloon, cursed iron nails, golden honey and other rare items to eliminate pollution.
Instead, he allowed himself to be contaminated by the curse and turned into a giant.
reason?
He felt the benefits.
A huge increase in strength brought about by the curse.
The giant transformed by Li Yu was completely different from other giants in the city.
Besides being not ugly and having obvious human features, he also brought along some of his unusual skills and abilities as a Taoist priest.
Just like this moment!
The "flesh and blood giant" who had kidnapped him and had his palms burned through, roared and pounced on him again.
Li Yu followed his fighting instinct and slapped him to the ground, then rushed forward and held down his head.
His own row of giant teeth, which were big enough to bite a hole in the city wall, made a clattering sound, as if the magma and mountain fire were a different kind of flame like the flame of a real dragon, suddenly erupting.
