Apocalypse: Counterattack of a Cannon Fodder

Chapter 333: Undercurrent surges

Views:

Choosing a good judge to follow is undoubtedly a layer of insurance for one's life, but most of the time, these trainee judges and preliminary judges have no choice. If no judge chooses them, or they If they do not choose judges, over time, they will be disqualified from being trainee judges and preliminary judges. This rule puts a layer of shackles on them, so in the end, it is completely the judges who choose them. , but they are no longer qualified to select judges, after all, the number of judges is limited.

Even Cong Yun was a little nervous when they collaborated on a mission for the first time. He couldn't figure out the strength of the "Spirit King" judge, and his character was even less clear. When he first met him in the assessment field, he seemed approachable. Although the attitude is gentle, no one can see clearly what the actual situation is.

The carriage was quiet, no one spoke, and Tang Shi didn't speak, so they all remained silent.

When they arrived at the city gate, the people who gathered at the city gate to leave or enter the city were all stopped by the city guards. Vehicles with the badge of the Trial Association came over. There was no doubt that there were judges who were going out of the city to perform tasks. Unrelated people were stopped. Give way. Tang Shi didn't know if this was the rule of Blue Crystal City or if it was like this in every gathering place. He had never encountered it, so he wouldn't say more.

Several people got out of the car, and Tang Shi directly activated the snow-colored griffon mount. Tang Shi already knew the direction of the destination. Jin Jue originally wanted him to bring a map, but Tang Shi didn't take it. The map on his body was better than that of humans. The drawing is so much better.

As soon as the snow-colored griffin appeared, the awakened people standing on the roadside took a breath. In their eyes, such a mount was considered a good one. Even Cong Yun and the five preparatory judges who were following Tang Shi looked at it with envy and then activated their mounts.

Cong Yun stepped forward and said a little embarrassedly: "'Spirit King', our mount may not be able to keep up with your speed."

Tang Shi turned around and saw that their mounts were all land-based mounts of various varieties. The only one that was better and could fly was Cong Yun's mechanical flying bird. The speed of the six of them could not keep up with Tang Shi's. Suddenly I didn't know what to say.

Since it was a signal for help, the situation must be urgent, but Tang Shi couldn't abandon them and leave alone. In the end, he had to decide to slow down and accommodate them.

Cong Yun knew that a mount as rare as the Judge could fly very fast, but he had to slow down because he accommodated them. Cong Yun could only urge the reserve Judge over and over again to speed up. The group of people drove in the direction of the mission.

Not long after they left, there were several people standing in the corner, wearing low-key armor but covering their faces tightly. Two of them quietly activated their mount cards and ran in the same direction as them. It wasn't until they entered a hidden place that they began to change their mounts, replacing their land mounts with flying mounts, and followed Tang Shi and his group from a distance.

The other few people who didn't follow turned around and walked into the Blue Crystal City. They walked around in the alleys of the outer city for a long time. Seeing that no one noticed them, a few people stooped into a courtyard. There was a man sitting in the yard. He was holding a palm-sized piece of wood in his hand and was slowly carving something with a carving knife.

After several people came in, they all walked up to the man and bowed respectfully.

"Sir, Tang Shi has left the city and is not expected to come back within a few days." A man lowered his head and reported.

The man blew on the carved wood, stared at the wood with a pair of golden eyes, and carefully repaired the areas he was not satisfied with, "How about Qin Lie and Zhan Rong?"

"Qin Lie and Zhan Rong have registered their own hunting team. They should go out to perform their first mission in the near future to accumulate experience points."

The man touched the carved wooden figure and touched the wooden figure's cheek with satisfaction, "Create an opportunity for them to leave quickly."

"Yes." The two people quickly stood up and left first.

"As for Yanxu," the man narrowed his eyes, "he is a troublesome character. He did not use all his strength in the previous battles. If it can be avoided, it is best not to fight forcefully."

"Yes." The remaining people also responded.

The man placed the carved wooden figure on the ground. At this moment, if someone is familiar with Long Mian, he can tell at a glance that the figure carved on the wood is Long Mian. The craftsmanship is exquisite and lifelike.

Tang Shi took Cong Yun and others on the road day and night. Fortunately, they all had mounts. Even if they passed through jungles and hills, there was no obstacle. There were no requirements for cars on the road, and the speed was very fast. Three days later, They arrived at the designated location, but did not see the judge and his team asking for help. They only saw the corpses of strange beasts lying on the ground.

Seeing the corpses of these alien beasts, Tang Shi finally confirmed his suspicion. These were parasitic alien beasts. After being killed, the corpses were dumped in the wilderness. Tang Shi ordered his men to burn these corpses. Don't leave any tools behind.

After cleaning up this area, they began to look for traces. In the past three days, the battlefield had advanced a lot towards the Kesha Lake swamp. When Tang Shi arrived, what he saw was exhausted. Several people were surrounding dozens of parasitized alien beasts. Tang Shi chased them all the way and saw the corpses of many alien beasts. It seemed that they had indeed killed many alien beasts, but after all, there were many alien beasts. , the number of "Green Forest" judges is small, and it is already very difficult to fight to this level.

Seeing several people riding their mounts, rushing towards here, Qu Hongwen, who was already weak from exhaustion, shouted, "Reinforcements are here! Everyone, work harder to eliminate these outsiders!"

Several people who rushed over quickly joined the battle. When they met, they were fighting. The powerful wings of the snow-colored griffon could easily flap the attacking beasts. The strong and powerful forelimbs used its sharp claws to Easily able to tear apart the alien beasts that were coming at him, Tang Shi also activated the blue feather sword and the black fish stalker leather armor, jumped off the back of the snow-colored griffon, and joined the battle.

Qu Hongwen and others got a chance to breathe and retreated to the rear to take a rest and look at the reinforcements from the unknown judge.

Cong Yun was sitting on a mechanical flying bird, suppressing it from a high altitude, carrying an elemental cannon on his shoulders. Every time the cannon was blasted down, it would inevitably smash an alien beast into pieces and splatter its flesh and blood. The power of the shoulder-mounted energy cannon is indeed very powerful, but it also wastes a lot of energy. Cong Yun did not always use the shoulder-mounted energy cannon. Instead, after bombing several larger alien beasts, Cong Yun changed it to Sniper rifles, this kind of gun is also obtained from cards. It uses Yuan energy bullets, and Yuan energy bullets are also very powerful. When shooting these low-level alien beasts, one shot is accurate. As long as it is aimed at the head, almost all of them will be shot. It was a one-shot kill.

The other five preparatory judges, in conjunction with their own mounts, also showed off their skills and fought against these strange beasts. They had completely gained the upper hand. It was only a matter of time before they could definitely clear out these strange beasts.

Qu Hongwen and others stood at the back to rest. Their eyes were mostly on Tang Shi, who was gathered there. They did not know this man. They watched him slashing strange beasts. His sword skills were simple but his killing moves were almost fatal. He can cut off the head of an alien beast. Regardless of the level or size of the alien beast, the long knife in his hand can cut it down without any hindrance and end the life of an alien beast.

A few people just wanted to judge the true strength of the judge who came for reinforcements. Unfortunately, Tang Shi just slashed with a long knife, not even basic fancy moves, just killing, only killing.

Qu Hongwen and others took a moment to breathe, then rushed over again and joined the battle. He controlled the roots of the trees in the surrounding forest. The roots covered with soil came out of the ground and tied up the fleeing aliens. The beast, followed by his trainee judge and the reserve judge, rushed forward without hesitation and killed the controlled alien beasts. Even if they could not be killed with one blow, they would quickly add another blow to try not to leave them behind. Leave any one alive.

The two parties fought for nearly an entire afternoon before killing this strange beast. Qu Hongwen used almost every trick. His strength made the trainee judges and preparatory judges who followed him feel particularly proud.

Compared with Tang Shi, Tang Shi had no other means except using a long knife to kill strange beasts. This has to make people wonder whether he could only use a long knife to kill. Cong Yun got off the mechanical bird expressionlessly, ignoring the provocative eyes of the "Green Forest" judge. Cong Yun ordered the five reserve judges to clear the battlefield and then set it on fire.

Qu Hongwen had been observing Tang Shi, but Tang Shi was not very interested in him. He just wanted to solve the trouble here as soon as possible so that he could rush back as soon as possible.

Qu Hongwen waited for a while and saw that the other party had no intention of coming over to greet him, so he had to go over by himself. As soon as he moved, the people he brought out naturally followed him.

"Are you the newly transferred judge?" They had heard before that a new judge would be transferred. Since this person came to the rescue and brought familiar trainee judges and reserve judges, they thought he would come. He should be the newly appointed judge. Tang Shi glanced at him. He was tall and slim, with an ordinary appearance and no features. "It's me."

I originally thought that Tang Shi would say a little more, at least introduce himself, but he didn't expect that the conversation ended with just two words.

Qu Hongwen's previous calculation was that if it was a powerful judge, he could make friends with it, but if it was an average judge, he wouldn't have to worry about it. Unfortunately, after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see any special strength of this judge. , of course, it is also possible that he is hiding his strength. After all, no judge is simple.

Qu Hongwen didn't want to be at odds with the judge. Even if the relationship wasn't so close and friendly, at least he couldn't be at odds with him.

"I am Qu Hongwen, codenamed 'Green Forest'." For the sake of courtesy, Qu Hongwen introduced himself first.

"Tang Shi, code name 'Spirit King'." Tang Shi replied lightly.

—When they heard the code name "Spirit King", everyone else was stunned. It has to be said that this code name is both special and arrogant. Most people don't dare to take a code name with the word "king", but this person dares to do it. Is it difficult for him? Is his strength really that high

Tang Shi didn't need to care about what others thought. He just wanted to complete the task quickly so that he could go back and snatch the intermediate upgrade card.

"Is this mission over?" Tang Shi received the mission to support the "Green Forest" judge and complete this mission.

Qu Hongwen said: "Although this wave of alien beasts has been eliminated, we do not rule out that there will be alien beasts coming in the future. Our mission is to prevent the strange alien beasts here from entering the Kesha Lake swamp. So far, My people have stopped two waves of strange beasts from attacking."

Tang Shi frowned. In other words, they have to wait here all the time. It is still unknown when the strange beasts that have been stopped can go back. As the president said, this is a troublesome task. If they wait like this, There is no other way but to wait for the strange beast to come to your door.

Tang Shi found it strange why such a task was assigned to the judges, and two judges were occupied here. To put it bluntly, this should be the job of the Awakening Army. The judges' main job is to chase criminals, not here. Block alien beasts.

Qu Hongwen also had a lot of dissatisfaction with this mission, but there was nothing he could do about it. Since the death of the leader of the Awakening Army, it has been a complete mess. The senior officials and officers have their own opinions, and they will quarrel with each other if anything happens. Really When it is time to carry out the mission, various problems will arise. Before the new leader takes office, their trial meeting can only maintain the normal order of Azurite City.
