Chapter 609
Chapter 609: Chapter 544: Ice Cold Chapter 609: Chapter 544: Ice Cold “Damn it, those blue-skinned monkeys are actually cooperating with the aliens?
Aren’t they afraid of dying!”
The team leader, his hair still speckled with bits of leaves, now felt the rapid beeping in his ear, accompanied by the alien’s exoskeleton rustling among the nearby branches, appearing and disappearing.
His face also looked extremely ugly.
They came out to hunt the aliens, so they must have some strength.
With preparation, relying on helicopters, they could take these down without a scratch.
For Pioneers who only took on missions for money, they might choose to give up if the profit wasn’t substantial enough, even if it meant losing just one team member.
Making money is one thing; there’s no need to overdo it with risking lives!
But now, the situation on the ground had completely changed!
Even if they could deal with these aliens now, they would encounter endless trouble on their way back.
The only option was to call for help, hoping for a nearby helicopter.
But to maximally hunt the aliens, they were divided by areas, each small team taking on a mission in a designated area.
By the time the helicopter came to rescue, they’d probably be out of ammo and food…
And this time, those Na’vi were lurking in the shadows!
The aliens’ growls began to emerge from all around.
These creatures clearly knew that their prey possessed weapons capable of hunting them.
But when was it the hunter, and when was it the prey?
Now they had to distinguish carefully.
The aliens could be fearless when necessary, willing to sacrifice individuals easily for the victory of their group.
In this regard, they were beyond comparison with the Pioneers.
The more anxious the fight, the bigger the aliens’ advantage grew.
“Executors disrupting nature, accept your judgment.”
Broken English came from the woods, obviously from those Na’vi lurking in ambush.
“If the aliens can live and have value, then why are you attacking us?!
Are we even less than the aliens?!”
The team leader roared angrily.
“We haven’t killed you; the aliens hunting you is just part of the natural cycle.
We too hunt our prey, that’s the rule of nature, as long as you do it without foreign aid.”
The Na’vi’s bizarre statements truly made them feel their worldview collapsing.
Just then, a giant alien parted the branches and revealed its full body.
Seven to eight meters in size, unlike the slender traditional aliens, this one’s body was covered with thick armor, looking very burly, its dark armor shining black.
It must have been cultivated using some creature that originally had high defensive power; it had completely absorbed that creature’s advantages.
Its hideous mouthparts dripped viscous saliva, emitting a low growl.
“It’s a pawn deliberately coming to test our firepower, wait a moment, wait until it gets closer!
Be careful to conserve ammunition,”
someone reminded calmly.
“Understood…”
However, just then, a tremor in the branches suddenly appeared behind them.
It gave them a start.
“What’s going on?
Why is there no detection alarm?”
“I don’t know!
Could it be they’ve evolved an anti-detection alien?!”
“What kind of species is this?!”
Surprised and angry, some of them aimed in that direction and saw the figure of the alien that had caused the commotion.
An alien the size of a giant leopard, its body seemed to drip with black ink-like shadows, its eyes shining red with the same bloodlust as the aliens.
But it didn’t spare the people a single glance, instead staring intently at the armored alien.
On the other hand, the armored alien that had come out to attract fire seemed to be quite wary, growling and retreating.
This confused the members of the small squad.
What was this?
Alien hunting alien?
Under different queens?
“Wait a moment, observe the situation.
Be aware if it’s their trap, don’t be careless,”
the team leader said gravely.
Then, accompanied by the trembling of the branches, another alien appeared, seemingly dripping with ink as well.
From high above, a dragon’s chant suddenly burst forth, as if sounding the charge for command.
The alien that appeared afterward charged at the armored alien and the other aliens behind it with lightning speed.
Extremely fast!@@novelbin@@
And the aliens were brutish in nature, retaliating while under attack, with nearby aliens quickly scuffling into a ball.
Using claws and teeth together, acidic blood splattered!
As they were all at least five to six meters in size, these large aliens.
The clash made a serious racket, with branches flying everywhere and wood chips scattering.
Watching the group stare dumbfounded.
“You see, those aliens aren’t bleeding, they’re not aliens!
They must be some kind of summoned creatures or special ability!”
Even Pioneers have some level of insight.
Watching the ensuing batch of Alien creatures fight fiercely, acid blood spurted from one side while the other showed only wounds, which were healed by the ‘ink’ on their skin.
A realization dawned on them!
Next, the leader quickly climbed to the top of the canopy and looked up to see the shadow of a dragon passing high in the sky.
“It’s an Alien Dragon from Eight-Armed Vajra!
Did he specially cultivate these aliens?
So strong!”
Almost in the time it took for him to be shocked, the fearless Shadow Aliens had completed their hunt of the seven or eight aliens and then swiftly dragged the bodies away, following the path of the Flying Dragon in the sky.
The crisis before them was thus resolved!
“Contact nearby squads for help!”
The leader made a decisive call and then cruelly surveyed the surroundings.
“Find those blue-skinned monkeys!”
…
Standing atop the Alien Dragon, Tao Yu sensed the number of Shadow Soldiers and subsequently retracted the unnecessary Shadow Aliens back into the Innate Barrier.
Though intangible shadow units didn’t burden the Innate Barrier much.
Still, there were indeed too many Aliens…
“That should be enough, there’s no need to gather too many of the low-cost ones.”
Even though Tao Yu could gather a large number and transform it into a qualitative change, bestowing their power onto himself.
But indeed, the number of low-cost units should not be excessive, as some capacity must be reserved for potential high-quality targets that might be captured later.
Swish, swish~
A series of shadows dove into the shadow cast by the Alien Dragon like swallows returning to their nests, all shaped into bizarre and peculiar Alien forms.
“It’s a pity, the Queen only caught two, they were well hidden.”
Tao Yu, standing on the Flying Dragon, facing the wind, also sighed at this moment.
Those guys had become wiser, with the Queen more or less isolated, except when Alien eggs were transported out, staying away from other Aliens to minimize interaction.
Finding the Queen through connections became much more challenging.
“These Na’vi really aren’t thinking clearly.
Have they been controlled by some manipulation?”
Tao Yu thought of some extreme environmentalists, and these Na’vi seemed to take it even further.
However, up next would indeed be a state of long-term coexistence, with Tao Yu himself only able to help cleanse the area occasionally during his visits.
Seemingly numerous, but in comparison to the area into which Pandora World had fallen, they were inconsequential.
All one could say was that his efficiency was higher than other teams.
This piecemeal cleaning approach mainly focused on the number of executions rather than the strength of individuals…
“Hmm?”
Just as Tao Yu was ready to depart along this path, he suddenly paused.
Because he spotted an abnormal region ahead.
A vast expanse of ice had covered a large section of the dense forest, freezing even the trees!
Looking at that lifelike, ice-sculpted forest, a helicopter perched on top of the canopy and encased in ice, and the few frozen figures with looks of horror on their faces who had fled the helicopter.
Tao Yu frowned slightly, then leaped down from the Alien Dragon, landing near these ice sculptures.
Having just landed, even he felt a wave of cold air.
Breaking off a chunk of Ice Crystal and crushing it in his hand, Tao Yu felt the gas evaporating from the ice.
The direct contact temperature could freeze the air itself!
“This face looks familiar; it seems like someone from the Floating City, what was his name?
Bell?”
Tao Yu compared the lifelike ice sculpture with his own intelligence information.
The perpetrator was very strong!
From the expression on Bell’s face, his life had been snatched away in an instant through freezing.
Such a wide range of instant freezing, to such an extreme temperature, gave off an icy chill even as Tao Yu entered.
A standard Catastrophe Level powerhouse!
“They actually have a Catastrophe Level strong person, which is somewhat surprising.
Personal teleportation device, perhaps?”
Tao Yu had thought Teng Lianghong should have been the strongest among them.
After all, he had sneaked here by possessing Teng Lianghong.
But now, a Catastrophe Level had suddenly appeared here!
However, it was a bit strange; although Bell was also from a Floating City family, he wasn’t considered a prominent member.
His family didn’t have Catastrophe Level power, only somewhat better than those top families in the Inner City.
It seemed a bit ‘uneconomical’ to expose themselves just for his sake.
Glancing down again, there was a Na’vi tribe here, and possibly Bell landed to do something to this tribe.
And at this moment, this Na’vi tribe was filled with ice sculptures.
The frozen bodies of the Na’vi, lifelike and eerily silent, created a strange tranquility.
Looking ahead towards the border area of Middle-earth, Tao Yu temporarily set aside these thoughts and took out his Communicator to say…
What do you think?
