The earthen wall rose rapidly, but it was all in vain.
"boom-
'
The hastily erected earthen wall, from its appearance to its collapse, seemed to have been compressed into the same instant.
To the naked eye, all that could be seen was the cannonball-like giant tongue shooting through the air, its tip seemingly hitting some invisible obstacle. Immediately afterward, a cloud of murky smoke and rubble exploded in front of Jiang Yueying without warning, spraying everywhere.
The tongue slowed its stabbing speed slightly, but its momentum remained undiminished, heading straight for the little girl's face.
Just before she was about to be struck by the tongue, Jiang Yueying finally realized something.
How about we call this skill "Thick Earth Wall," or perhaps "Absolute Defense"? Thinking about it carefully, "Sanctuary Wall" isn't bad either.
Huh? No, what's this? A tongue? When did it arrive?
Where is my Sanctuary Wall? Why didn't it stop it?!
Hey! Where's Lu Ren? Help him!
"Bang-
'
At the critical moment, the enormous Thousand-Machine Heavy Umbrella appeared in front of him, and Ji Liguang gripped the handle, firmly blocking the attack.
She felt the force; it was lighter than she had imagined, perhaps because it was cushioned by the earthen wall.
As Ji Liguang blocked the fatal blow, a small figure appeared beside him at some unknown time.
A figure clad entirely in dark green armor swung her longsword in a circular motion, unleashing a fan-shaped flash of light. The longsword, gleaming with a metallic sheen, traced a full and sharp arc in her hand, and a humming wind blade erupted in response!
Before the rock-shelled lizard could even roar in pain, its thick, tough tongue, which hadn't yet retracted, was severed in the cold arc of light, falling heavily into the dust along with a spray of dark bodily fluid.
The lizard monster in the distance suddenly let out a mournful howl.
"Well done, Youhe!" Even Ji Liguang couldn't help but praise.
Jiang Yueying, still in shock, discovered that she had survived.
"Xiaoying! Wasn't I awesome just now?!"
Lu Youhe's voice came through the helmet with some distortion, but it was clear that she was excited; she wouldn't normally use such vulgar language.
Lu Ren, who was watching from afar, frowned. "Lu Youhe, what are you saying, young lady?"
"Lu Ren! I'll make you lizard tongue soup tonight!"
Lu Ren also noticed that Lu Youhe performed surprisingly well in his first real battle, showing great composure and decisiveness.
My first experience in combat was just like an idiot, throwing punches like a madman.
Thinking about it carefully, Lu Youhe's athletic performance was actually quite good; this guy might have originally been very talented in combat.
Ji Li pushed off the ground barefoot and flew more than ten meters away. Judging from the size difference between the two, he looked like a rabbit charging towards a pack of wolves.
"Keep an eye on the distance, these monsters don't seem too strong!"
Her weapon, the parasol, is a thousand-fold parasol that can be used as a shield when opened and as a spear when closed. She wields it with great power and majesty.
A rock-shelled lizard charged at her. She met it head-on, its foul-smelling tongue lolling out from beside her ear like a black shadow, while her long golden hair billowed wildly in the wind.
"Gathering Momentum"
—
【Gathering Momentum】Quality: No quality. One of Ji Liguang's three skills, derived from a silver-grade mountain spirit-type true-type virtual beast in the north. It can gather momentum and instantly increase strength and defense.
As the umbrella closed, Ji Liguang slightly turned his body, and the Thousand Chance Umbrella in his hand, like a venomous snake spitting its tongue, precisely and ruthlessly pierced into the soft spot of the rock-shelled lizard's stomach, which was not protected by a hard outer shell.
The sensation was like puncturing a rotten sewage pipe. The next moment, foul-smelling, viscous blood gushed out from the hole, splashing all over Ji Liguang's body.
The rock-shelled lizard's body shuddered violently, emitting a sharp, distorted hiss—a sound unlike a roar, but rather like the agonizing wail of a fly stuck firmly to a flypaper in summer, a mixture of despair and rage.
"Tsk!!"
Feeling the texture, Ji Liguang clicked his tongue.
She originally intended to pierce the monster's heart, but even without a hard outer shell for protection, the monster's muscle strength was terrifying, and this attack would hardly even cause serious injury.
Suddenly, another rock-shelled lizard attacked from the right. She quickly pulled out her parasol, barely managing to defend herself from its attack and bite.
The force emanating from the parasol felt like a mountain rock crashing into her, carrying an unparalleled and terrifying impact.
The girl's face was unusually solemn. "Gather your strength—"
'
The effects of the Gathering Momentum skill can be stacked, but this skill is inherently designed to force oneself to exert maximum pressure. After two consecutive Gathering Momentum sessions, most people would not be able to withstand the pain, and Ji Liguang's bones began to crack.
However, she is from the Ji family of Tiandu, and she inherited the world's number one shield warrior profession!
"Ugh—"
The girl's feet plowed two deep furrows in the ground, blocking the impact. A hoarse sound came from deep in her throat. She changed her attack and actually pushed the terrifying beast backward, directly pressing it against the side of the mountain road. She pushed it more than ten meters away, and it rolled down the mountain.
However, at that moment, a roar came from behind her. The rock-shelled lizard she had injured was now even more ferocious and charged at her without regard for anything else.
"hardening!"
Just when she thought she was about to be hit hard, a solid pillar of earth rose up behind her, blocking the monster's attack.
Not just one, but four or five rock pillars, growing wildly like bamboo shoots, appeared simultaneously from several angles, firmly locking the rock-shelled lizard in place.
At the same time, a beam of white light pierced through space, and the eyes of the rock-shelled lizard that had ambushed Ji Liguang were blown out.
"Zi"
"Sizzle—"
Then, several more shots were fired in quick succession, specifically targeting the eyes and the wounds that Ji Liguang had just created. After a few shots, the rock-shelled lizard finally collapsed and could not get up.
"Great, so accurate! Youhe is amazing!"
"Xiaoying, you're amazing too!"
"You, those two shots you just fired were so, so cool!"
"Xiaoying, your magic came at just the right time!"
The two little ones were extremely excited, thrilled that they had worked together so well to take down a bronze-level Void Beast.
However, there were originally six rock-shelled lizards in the field. Ji Liguang pushed one down the mountain, and Jiang Yueying and Lu Youhe worked together to kill one, leaving four remaining.
They were like four prehistoric behemoths, climbing up the mountainside along the path, passing Ji Liguang, and rushing towards the two little ones behind them.
The distance of several dozen meters disappeared in their collapsing rush. What seemed far away just moments ago was now revealed in horror as they pressed down on us. They were like five out-of-control steel buses, crashing down from the sky and the ground with the force of crushing everything in their path!
"not good!"
Ji Liguang cursed under his breath and hurriedly returned to provide support.
This is what gives her a headache. She has to draw aggro and initiate team fights at the front, and then go back to protect the backline. How can this be?
"There are still a few left, Xiaoying, hurry up."
Jiang Yueying gritted her teeth, held her magic wand and waved it repeatedly, the magical light flashing rapidly.
One, two, three earthen walls rose up one after another, blocking the path of the giant beast's charge, but to no avail.
Those rock and earth barriers that could withstand ordinary artillery shells were as fragile as sandcastle blocks built by children in the face of these prehistoric behemoths.
The behemoth didn't even need to deliberately charge; it simply crushed over the earthen wall with the force of collapsing mountains. In a series of muffled explosions, the wall was smashed to pieces like paper, sending rubble and dust flying everywhere without being stopped for even a moment.
If it were just one, Jiang Yueying felt she could use earth and rock magic to hold it back, but the multi-headed giant lizard charged together and couldn't be stopped for even a moment!
Her face turned pale. "Too much, no!"
"They're charging!"
"I-I-I-I-Waaah! Yu, Yuhe, run!"
A month ago, she would probably have peed her pants from fright. But after about a month of Lu Ren scaring her with his dogs, Jiang Yueying has really improved. Instead of collapsing on the ground waiting for someone to rescue her, she grabbed her big staff and ran away as fast as she could.
And they didn't forget to bring their friends along, grabbing Lu Youhe's arm and running away together.
After all, Lu Ren had taken such good care of her before, so she felt that as the older sister, she should take care of Xiao Youhe.
She hadn't walked more than two steps when she suddenly felt someone lift her up.
"Don't worry, Xiaoying, I'll protect you!"
Lu Youhe put away his gun and picked up Jiang Yueying in a princess carry.
Lu Youhe's physique is only two or three points strong, which is only slightly stronger than that of an average adult. However, the armor she is wearing is a bronze-level alchemical artifact, which can greatly enhance her physical attributes after activation.
He's roughly at the level of an ordinary person to Captain America; he could probably carry Jiang Yueying and run away.
Lu Ren thought Lu Youhe, dressed in full-body armor, looked like a little radish, but rather cute. He happily took out his phone to take pictures of the three of them.
Then the young lady confiscated his phone and scolded him a couple of times.
Ji Liguang chased after them, shouting, "Stop running!"
As a shield warrior, she lacked effective means of attack, while these rock-shelled lizards were similar to her, possessing maxed-out defensive capabilities but lacking offensive methods, so for the time being, neither could gain the upper hand.
"I'll hold these bastards off; you can just shoot them dead!"
"No, Ali, if we don't run, they'll catch up!"
Meanwhile, Heishan Gaoyue and his group had already cleaned up their fight and were watching the young people over there looking disheveled and humiliated, their eyes filled with a hint of mockery.
Most of these aristocratic sons or academic professionals are like this. They are used to running rampant in their own families or in human society. They live too comfortably and become arrogant and ignorant.
Appreciating these greenhorns, their high spirits before setting off, and their panicked state when they actually encounter virtual beasts, is an aspect that these professionals in society cannot help but experience.
The magician, Shirazuki, chuckled and whispered to his teammates, "How about we bet on when they start crying for their mothers?"
Props maker Lin Hei also asked, "Are we really going to have to share this mission equally with these guys?"
