Spiritual world.
Beside the warm and somewhat humid swamp, a huge alien beast was surrounded by four humans armed with weapons.
This strange beast looks a bit like an extinct dinosaur on the Blue Star tens of millions of years ago. Specifically, it should be said that it looks like a unicorn dragon.
This one-horned dragon is ten meters long and weighs more than ten tons. Its nose has a very sharp and curved spike.
If one is hit by a frontal impact, the sharp spikes on its nose can easily pierce a person.
The four people surrounding it are Ji Xiaoxiao, Wang Chao, Sun Bin and Cheng Ling.
The construction team they were protecting was going to open a road here. Just as they were about to start construction, this huge unicorn dragon jumped out of the jungle.
This alien beast is very violent. After coming out of the jungle, it immediately wants to attack the construction team under construction.
Fortunately, Ji Xiaoxiao and his team discovered it in time and immediately stopped the unicorn dragon beast that was about to attack the construction team. Otherwise, the construction team may suffer casualties.
"Roar……"
The unicorn dragon beast with the middle level of third-level cultivation exuded a ferocious aura and roared at the four people surrounding it. It was angry that these little things were blocking it.
"Sun Bin, Cheng Ling, you two stand back a little. This strange beast is quite strong. Don't be hurt by it. Next, let Wang Chao and I deal with him."
Ji Xiaoxiao reminded Sun Bin and Cheng Ling, who only had second-level cultivation. The latter nodded, but they did not think about leaving the battle completely.
"Let's go get the ranged weapons."
After saying that, Sun Bin and Cheng Ling quickly ran to where they stored their weapons.
When Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao saw the two of them leaving, they felt much less constrained. After all, Sun Bin and Cheng Ling were too close to the strange beast, and they had concerns and could not attack with all their strength.
"Roar……"
The unicorn dragon beast roared violently, and then the sharp and curved spikes on its nose glowed with a light golden aura. Then, the water in the swamp next to it surged, and water columns shot out from the swamp towards Wang Chao.
Shoot with Ji Xiaoxiao.
"boom."
"boom."
"boom……"
Faced with the supernatural attack used by the unicorn dragon beast, Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao could not sit still and wait for death.
They waved the spiritual swords in their hands and scattered all the water pillars hit by the unicorn dragon beast.
The split water columns sprayed water in all directions. Originally, after these water columns were split, the water splashing in all directions should have fallen on the ground.
However, they did not scatter on the ground as Wang Chao and Sun Bin thought. Instead, they stopped at a distance from the ground, and then quickly returned to the unicorn dragon beast, gathering into a huge water ball.
.
"Roar……"
The unicorn dragon beast roared again, and its powers were activated again, gathering in front of it to form a huge water ball, which collapsed in an instant and turned into water columns again.
And these water pillars were swung around as if controlled by invisible big hands, and the air whipped made a loud crackling sound.
"Be careful, this strange beast is going to attack us again." Ji Xiaoxiao reminded.
"Yeah." Wang Chao nodded.
As soon as he finished speaking, the water jets controlled by the unicorn dragon beast quickly hit Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao.
The two people quickly dodged. The power of these water jets that were whipped at them was very shocking. However, they dodged very quickly and narrowly escaped the ferocious attacks of the alien beasts.
The flowers, plants and trees that were hit by the water jets were in terrible condition.
Faced with the whipping of the water column, the delicate and prosperous flowers, plants and trees were instantly whipped to pieces and turned into debris floating all over the sky.
"Pa bang bang..."
The beatings again and again left the originally thriving ecological environment next to the swamp covered in bruises.
Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao smashed the oncoming water columns again and again, but the awakened power of the unicorn dragon beast was too difficult to deal with.
Even if they break the water column again and again, the water column can be restored to its original shape in an instant.
The situation is at a stalemate. Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao have no way to break through the unicorn dragon beast's abilities for the time being. They can only maintain the status quo and wait for the opportunity to break through.
"Tap tap tap..."
A burst of urgent footsteps came from a distance, and Sun Bin and Cheng Ling, who had gone to fetch long-range weapons, returned.
At this moment, each of them was holding a spiritual weapon, a crossbow, and the bags on their backs were filled with arrows.
Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao, who were fighting with the alien beasts, saw the long-range weapons in their hands and knew that the situation was about to be reversed.
Things developed just as they thought. Sun Bin and Cheng Ling, who returned to the scene of the battle, did not say any nonsense like I was here.
They directly took out an arrow from the bag they were carrying, loaded it into the spiritual weapon crossbow in their hands, and began to aim at the unicorn dragon beast in the distance.
Activating the spiritual weapon crossbow in his hand, Sun Bin was the first to attack.
"call out."
The activated spiritual weapon crossbow exuded a pale golden aura. Sun Bin pulled the trigger, and the arrow with a pale golden aura wrapped around the surface shot out with a whoosh, piercing the air with a harsh sound of breaking through the air, and headed straight towards the one-horned dragon.
The beast shot over.
After Sun Bin pulled the trigger, Cheng Ling also pulled the trigger and launched his own attack.
Two special spiritual weapon arrows were shot at the unicorn dragon beast. The unicorn dragon beast, which had a mid-level third-level cultivation level, immediately sensed a powerful threat and immediately used its own powers to defend itself.
Water columns are crisscrossed and intertwined to form a huge defense network.
The arrows shot at the unicorn dragon beast first plunged into the defense network composed of the superpowers used by the unicorn dragon beast, and then with a loud bang, a huge explosion shattered the defense network.
Logically speaking, these blasted pieces and the water jets splashing around should be able to recover quickly under the control of the unicorn dragon beast.
But for some reason, the defense network that was blown apart by the arrow could not be restored to its original state for a while.
If you feel it carefully, you will find that the free spiritual energy in the air in the explosion area is chaotic, affecting the water droplets that were blown up and splashed around to quickly gather together.
It turns out that this arrow actually has the effect of interfering with the spiritual energy of an area.
As the arrow fired by Sun Bin tore through the defense net of the alien beast, the arrow fired by Cheng Ling, who followed closely behind, also produced its own effect.
"Zi."
Silvery white current appeared on the arrow, and then the entire arrow emitted a flash of lightning.
The unicorn dragon beast was about to dodge, and it quickly moved to the side. As a result, the lightning turned by the arrow did not hit it, but fell directly not far in front of it and disappeared into the grass.
"Roar?!!!"
The unicorn dragon beast let out a confused roar, and then, it secretly whispered danger.
As soon as the idea of crisis arose, it was still a step too late. Chains made of silver-white thunder and lightning shot out from the grass beneath it, wrapping around its body.
"Zizzizi..."
The power of the electric light is still unable to hurt an alien beast with a middle-level third-level cultivation, but the electric current it generates makes the body feel a little paralyzed.
Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao seized the opportunity and immediately rushed towards the unicorn dragon beast whose body was somewhat paralyzed by the electric current.
Facing the oncoming enemy, it used a little force to break free from the restraints on its body, but due to the impact of the electric current attack, its speed was slower than before.
"Roar……"
"Boom..."
Angry beast roars sounded one after another, followed by explosions that echoed all around.
The fierce battle lasted for half an hour before calmness returned.
"Huh..." a panting voice sounded from the shore next to the swamp.
Ji Xiaoxiao, Wang Chao and the other four breathlessly looked at the killed unicorn dragon beast and breathed a sigh of relief.
This alien beast has rough skin and thick flesh, which is really difficult to deal with. If it weren't for the spiritual weapon crossbows brought by Sun Bin and Cheng Ling to continuously shoot arrows with different effects, Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao would have spent more money.
It will take time to take it down.
"This strange beast is really difficult to deal with! It took so long to kill it." Wang Chao said to his companions with a smile.
"Yes! Its defense is too strong, and the awakened superpower is so difficult to deal with.
If Sun Bin and Cheng Ling hadn't come to assist us, we would have had to exhaust its psychic energy to take it down." Ji Xiaoxiao said, looking at the motionless Unicorn Dragon lying on the ground.
"The spiritual weapon crossbows and arrows with different effects provided to us this time are really useful." Sun Bin said with a smile.
"How does this strange beast taste? I have never eaten the meat of such a dinosaur-like beast before. I want to give it a try tonight." Cheng Ling said.
Afterwards, the four people discussed it, and Wang Chao took the strange beast back to the temporary settlement and notified the retreating construction team to return to construction.
Wang Chao used his supernatural power to sink the dead beast into the ground and disappear.
About ten minutes later, Wang Chao, who had returned, appeared under a big tree next to the swamp.
Ji Xiaoxiao and the other three were sitting under a tree to rest. The battle just now consumed a lot of their physical strength and spiritual energy.
"Have you notified the construction team?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked.
"We have been notified. They are on their way and should arrive in a while." Wang Chao said.
"You should give that alien to the chef and the others in the cafeteria!" Cheng Ling asked.
Her focus was still on that strange beast, thinking that she would taste the meat of that strange beast that looked like a dinosaur tonight.
"It has been handed over to the chefs in the cafeteria. They pat their chests and promise that they will prepare a dinosaur dinner for everyone tonight." Wang Chao said.
Cheng Ling nodded with satisfaction after hearing this. At this time, Wang Chao added, "After I gave the alien to the uncle in the cafeteria, I met a transport team that came to deliver supplies, and one of them told me a piece of news."
Ji Xiaoxiao and the others looked at Wang Chao, waiting for his follow-up. Wang Chao then told him the news he had received.
"Your old classmate Lin Fei, who has been missing for several months, has returned."
"Huh?!!!" When Ji Xiaoxiao and the other three heard the news, their faces showed surprise, and then Ji Xiaoxiao asked quickly.
"Lin Fei is back. Is he okay? Is he injured?"
Wang Chao said, "Everything is fine with him, and your question is a bit redundant! He can kill a pig-headed man at the fourth-level general level. If you want to injure him, how strong must the enemy be?"
"When did he come back?" Cheng Ling asked.
"I don't know exactly when I came back. It probably happened in the past few days!" Wang Chao said, "He came back safe and sound, so you don't have to worry now."
Ji Xiaoxiao and the other two nodded, their faces full of joy, but they were also curious as to how Lin Fei, who entered the space crack, returned safely.
"Lin Fei didn't say why he came back. He didn't want to say it, and no one could force him to say it. Anyway, he just needs to return safely now." Wang Chao said.
"I originally thought that after our business trip was over, when we returned to Rongcheng, we would ask Lin Fei's girlfriend for information. Now, we don't have to ask his girlfriend for information." Cheng Ling laughed.
"But this time the business trip is over, I still want to invite him out and get together with him. He has been missing for a long time this time." Sun Bin, who had not spoken much, said.
"Yeah." Ji Xiaoxiao nodded, she also had the same intention.
Ever since she learned about Lin Fei's disappearance from Wang Chao, she had been worried a lot during this period. Now that he was back safely, while relaxing, she still wanted to meet Lin Fei in person.
"The Chinese New Year is coming next week. I don't know if we can finish this business trip before the New Year." Sun Bin said.
"..." Ji Xiaoxiao and others were silent for a while after hearing this. Originally, their business trip to the spirit world should have ended at the end of January.
But by chance, many strange beasts from Blue Star appeared in the sea areas where some ships were sailing, attacking passing ships, which forced the Superpower Management Bureau to send additional personnel to patrol the sea.
The personnel who were originally supposed to be sent to the spirit world to rotate with the investigators who were on a business trip in the spirit world were also sent to the sea to conduct patrols. For a time, there were not enough personnel to rotate with the investigators who were on a business trip in the spirit world.
"Now we are short of manpower, so we can only wait patiently." Ji Xiaoxiao said after being silent for a while.
"I haven't called my family for a long time. If I can't go home for the New Year this time, I have to call in advance to talk to my family!" Cheng Ling said.
"After today's road construction is over, return to your base, apply with the boss, and call your family to make sure they are safe." Sun Bin suggested.
His proposal was approved by Ji Xiaoxiao and the others, and while the group was chatting and resting, there was a noise in the distance.
Looking into the distance, you can see a road construction engineering team slowly heading this way.
When Wang Chao and Ji Xiaoxiao saw the arrival of the construction team, they immediately stood up and walked out from the shade of the trees. They separated and guarded some surrounding areas to guard against the construction team coming to build the road.
