Chapter 158 Confrontation
Chapter 158 Confrontation
The boundless ocean before Jiang Guoqiang was like a small pond casually gathered by a child, which he could stir up at will. The strange beasts lurking in the ocean roared helplessly, but were buried in the sea of blood under the attack of the level five wind-type ability user.
Blades of wind slashed at the giant sea beast's body. The enormous creature was a natural target, letting out pitiful cries. In its agony, it attacked indiscriminately, sending its own kind to the ground like dominoes falling.
"Hoohoho-"
"call out!!!"
The enormous sea monster crashed into the sea, and the splashing waves swept ashore. The shattered piranhas stared with their crimson eyes wide open in death, carried by the waves to the feet of the zero-degree water.
Cheng Feng, being a level two Light-type, was already speechless with shock.
"Level 5..."
It wasn't that she hadn't watched videos of level 5 experts; Jiang Guoqiang's early videos had been collected and polished by countless people. But the blurry videos were far from comparable to the sense of urgency of experiencing the oppressive atmosphere of dark clouds looming over the city. Even from a distance, she, as an observer, felt a chilling sense of crisis, as if she were being watched by a top predator, let alone facing Jiang Guoqiang's marine beasts directly.
The battle in the distance continued, but it was a one-sided massacre. Under the influence of the tornado, seawater poured in, forming a waterspout and creating a deadly storm at sea.
The powerful wind-based ability stirred up the entire seawater, and the seemingly chaotic and indiscriminate attacks actually landed precisely on every sea beast that appeared to have red eyes.
The anomaly in the ocean startled the strange beast that was engrossed in teaching in the deep sea. It moved slightly, carefully protecting a figure in the bubble in front of it, and extended its spiritual power to issue a warning.
【—woo—woo—woo—】
The invisible wavelengths spread out from the alien beasts, startling many high-level alien beasts in the deep sea. They fled away from the deep sea as if fleeing. However, the high-level alien beasts had not swum for long before they were accidentally injured by tiny wind blades that had penetrated deep into the sea. The attacked high-level alien beasts began to search for the enemy who had secretly attacked them, moving in the direction of the wind blades.
Jiang Guoqiang frowned at sea, controlling his wind blades to sweep past the sea beasts that were not infected by the Alpha parasite. His intention was to deal with the Alpha parasite, not to wantonly commit murder.
Once he reached level five, he had to consider the sensitive nerves of some people every time he made a move, because he was the one holding the knife, and he had to offer comfort to the unarmed.
The beasts were unaware of the humans' considerations. The sea monsters had gone berserk, and the underlings had no choice but to move their territory. They were attacked during the move and naturally sought revenge. In addition, the sea monsters kept wailing and sirens, so the sea monsters, inexplicably anxious, began to fight back.
"Wow--"
"boom--"
Cai Zhizhi spread her feet apart to make herself more stable, and was almost swept away by a wave with wind blades. As soon as she stood still, she was pulled away by Zero Degree, narrowly avoiding a colorful strange fish.
The strange fish bit into the corpse of a piranha on the beach, and the corpse instantly melted, sending chills down the spine and making the onlookers' scalp tingle and their hands and feet go cold.
"That's too toxic." Cheng Feng swallowed hard, suppressing his heart pounding in his throat. "Why does it feel like it's getting more and more insane?"
She instinctively thought that the Alpha parasite had undergone some unpredictable mutation, but when she looked at the highly venomous fish, she discovered that it didn't have eyes at all.
The deep sea is dark, and many marine creatures grow haphazardly, often in bizarre shapes, some even without eyes.
“This is beyond our capabilities,” Zero said gravely, glancing at Jiang Guoqiang in the sky. His immovable figure instilled a sense of security. He composed himself and asked Cai Zhizhi, who had opened up a space, “How’s the protection? You need to go to a safer place. Can you move?”
"We've intercepted three level-two weaklings and have notified the team to eliminate them. I can only move about three kilometers at the moment; any further and the situation will change."
"Okay, let's get away from here for now. The alien beasts have started to fight back. Notify me immediately if you're level three or above. There's still no news from Shantou. I'll try to build an ice wall to hold them off temporarily." Zero nodded to Cai Zhizhi and Cheng Feng, and after discussing it with them, they decided to try to move closer to Shantou, where the spatial shield hadn't been activated.
According to Zero Degrees' plan, with Jiang Guoqiang present, the crisis in Shantou could be resolved within half an hour, and the plan could proceed normally.
But now the battle at sea is getting more and more intense. If the Alpha Parasite breaks through Shantou, even if it saves most of Guangdong Province, Shantou will be in trouble. So even if his ice wall has little effect, he has to do his part.
Not only at Zero Degree, but Wan Hongdong, the director of the base in Guangzhou, was furious. He couldn't help but curse in his dialect, "You idiot, you don't know how to die!"
"Immediately notify people to intercept them in Shantou. Any marine monsters that have just stepped into Shantou must die, and their corpses should be burned to death on the spot by fire-type abilities! All ability users of level three and below must wear protective helmets!!! They are not allowed to take them off during the entire mission!"
Deep in the ocean, sensing that the powerful enemy at sea had not stopped despite its warnings, the strange beast launched an angry attack.
The sea obeyed its will, forming a giant whale made of water on the surface, its mouth open to swallow Jiang Guoqiang, who was floating in the air.
Jiang Guoqiang remained unfazed, spreading his five fingers wide. Wind passed through his fingers, forming four wind blades that split the condensed giant whale into four water masses.
The howling wind emitted a sharp, explosive sound, like the dying cry of a whale, echoing across the vast sky.
The battle between two truly top-tier superhumans may seem simple and unadorned, but it is filled with immense pressure.
The octopus, facing the invisible warning from the strange beast head-on, had its crimson eyes trembling incessantly, its tentacles flaring erratically. Terrified and desperate by its predicament of being surrounded by wolves in front and tigers behind, it felt a surge of anger.
【Heh——————】
Full-force attack!!! Parasitize all supernatural life forms in its path!
The moment the command was given, all the red-eyed hosts went into a mental frenzy. The Alpha parasites hidden in the crystal cores received the order from the Insect King and secreted a liquid that increased the crystal core's capacity limit and enhanced the host's attack power, paving the way for them to transfer hosts. As for whether the original host's physical condition could keep up, they would not care about the original host's life or death.
The parasitic beasts initially landed in a uniform line, but after being hindered, they quickly discovered the weakest point—Shantou City in the northeast corner!
They then began to concentrate their attacks on the northeastern part of the coastline.
Zero had just used his powers to build the ice wall and hadn't even had time to reinforce it when, in the blink of an eye, a horde of beasts had gathered. Countless sea beasts walked tirelessly along the shore, some collapsing from time to time. But he keenly noticed that the strange plants next to the fallen sea beasts began to move.
"Damn it! They changed hosts and there's no incubation period?!" Zero couldn't help but curse under his breath, feeling utterly hopeless. He couldn't stop them all by himself!
There are many level two and three robots everywhere. He is indeed level four, but he is not a robot. Even robots need to be charged. He has been working non-stop for three days and is now almost exhausted after building the ice wall. In addition, he needs to save some of his powers to protect Cai Zhizhi and guard the last line of defense.
Zero immediately sent several urgent requests for support to the Guangdong Provincial Superpower Base, and received a call from Wan Hongdong right after sending them out.
"Old Wan, save me!"
"Hold on for three more minutes, Umbrella Girl and White Eyebrows will be here soon! There's a problem inside Shantou! There are enemy agents! Damn it, they're messing with my people now, I'll kill them!" A hint of ferocity flashed in Wan Hongdong's eyes. The old man, who already looked fierce, now looked more like the King of Hell himself issuing a kill order.
It was truly a case of misfortunes never coming singly. On one hand, there was a plague of insects, and on the other hand, the space-type ability user in charge of Shantou City had been kidnapped by foreign spies. Zero couldn't help but take a deep breath when he saw Xiao Yuan's news.
"quack!!"
The cawing of crows should have been incredibly mournful, but for some reason, it stirred in Zero Degree a heroic spirit of "fighting them to the death!"
"Three minutes, huh? Don't lie to me." After hanging up the phone, Zero muttered to himself, took out a bottle of blue medicine from his person, pushed open the cap with his thumb, and poured it into his mouth through his teeth.
His supernatural abilities returned instantly, making him calmer than ever before. "Cheng Feng, protect Cai Zhizhi."
"Yes!" Cheng Feng straightened up, controlling his legs which were trembling under the pressure.
The next moment, a biting wind howled, and thousands of ice spikes burst from the puddles on the ground.
The gleaming ice flowers were stained with endless blood, and the corpses of numerous sea beasts served as paintbrushes, creating art on the beautiful yet sharp ice blades, a beauty that was breathtaking.
