Chapter 203 Our strategy is to protect four and one
The next day.
The bright sunshine passed through the curtains and shone on Luo He's face, and he opened his sleepy eyes in confusion.
Luo He pulled the quilt, but it didn't move. Luo He found that the fluffy red panda was pressing on the quilt, wrapping its big tail around itself, coiled into a ball, and sleeping very peacefully.
Luo He stretched out his hand, touched the reddish-brown hair on Xiaojiu's back, patted its head, and said: "Wake up, Xiaojiu, you've eaten snake fruit."
Xiao Jiu's little white ears moved, and she turned over on the bed to expose her dark belly. She lay on her back and spread her four little flesh pads, grinning her tongue happily.
Luo He smiled, stretched out his hand to rub its belly, got up immediately, and opened the curtains.
Wow——
Luo He looked out the window at the lush green forest in the mountains behind, feeling relaxed and happy.
Today's main trip is to go to Shisha Lake to do a multi-person mission to hone teamwork.
Before that, Luo He went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast and take stock of yesterday's harvest.
The travel diary steadily improved the proficiency of the three little guys' moves, but all they brought back were basic materials, which Luo He glanced at and ignored.
Luo He had already let Yuyu and Xuexue eat the two precious "Golden Crown Fruits" obtained yesterday.
Xuexue is already a "high-level commander", and her growth level has not been significantly improved.
And Yuyu officially stepped into the "Medium Commander", keeping up with the speed of the team's strength improvement.
In addition, the senior chipmunk is busy collecting food for the winter and does not need to be accompanied by him. Luo He can safely go to the ancient capital to complete tasks outside the pass.
During breakfast time, the three pet beasts gathered around the dining table and happily cooked.
"Hey~" Xiaojiu held [Buddha Peach Canned·Legendary Kitchenware Enhanced Edition] and raised his head.
"Woo!" Yuyu chewed the seaweed salad, eating like a wind and a cloud.
"Yo..." Xuexue scooped up the ice cream gracefully, with a slight smile on her face.
Luo He raised the milk glass in one hand and held his mobile phone in the other hand, browsing the news.
In the group chat, Miao Yingying said: "@All members, are you awake?"
"Don't forget your bracelet when you fly to the ancient capital at twelve o'clock, otherwise it will be very troublesome." Wei Zhe said.
Everyone responded, and Miao Yingying said that we should gather at the school gate first, and then take the bus to the airport together.
This multi-person delegation trip for the school team has received full support from the school. After all, this is also an effort to improve Yunnan University's performance in the college league.
The airport bus drove directly into the campus, and the four members of the school team were already standing beside the bus waiting.
Luo He came late and said apologetically: "Sorry, it took me some time to make breakfast."
"It's okay." Miao Yingying smiled, looked at Luo He, and asked curiously: "Speaking of which, Luo He... why do you feel that you are a little different than when we met the day before yesterday?"
"I feel the same way." Wei Zhe pushed up his glasses, "It's a subtle change in temperament."
"It's better to say it's breath than temperament." Ye Zhi hit the nail on the head, "Your space power is different from before."
In the recent hard training, everyone in the school team has successfully opened up a third-level space, obtained the qualification to conquer the giant sickle crab, and has become more sensitive to the power of space.
Luo He suddenly understood and explained: "It should be because I opened up a fourth-level space."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, looking at the unabashed Luo He, their eyes gradually became a little complicated.
"You..." Miao Yingying opened her mouth, "If I remember correctly, you just debuted in this year's Rookie King Competition, right?"
"The news said that it had just been a month since you awakened to space..." Wei Zhe took over.
"Yeah." Luo He said half-jokingly, "It's not surprising that the pet space is upgraded to a level every month, right?"
Everyone: "..."
What a monster’s upgrade speed!
However, the stronger Luo He is, the more likely he is to achieve breakthroughs in school team performance, and everyone is happy for him.
The bus took everyone from the colonel to Yundu Airport.
In the car, Ye Zhi looked down at a map.
Luo He cast his gaze, Ye Zhi glanced at Luo He, and then said:
"Shisha Lake is located outside the ancient capital of Guan. It was once the seat of the ancient Xixia Kingdom... but now it has become very desolate, causing ferocious beasts to occupy human territory."
Luo He nodded and asked: "Is the ancient capital very close to Shisha Lake?"
"It's not close, but it's only a few hours' drive away," Ye Zhi said.
Luo He suddenly remembered that "dinosaur fanatic" Dong You had mentioned to him that the Gudu University team also planned to do a multi-person commission.
It must be a coincidence.
Luo He didn't pay attention. He squinted on the bus for a while. After arriving at the airport, he boarded the plane with everyone and arrived at the ancient capital airport at noon.
Miao Yingying rented an off-road vehicle directly at the airport, took everyone on board and drove all the way to the outside of the ancient capital.
The scenery outside the car window ranges from urban areas to suburbs to wilderness, and you can already see wild animals living on both sides of the road: gladiatorial takin, stone-lanceed wild boars, and albatross sparrows.
"唳——"
The high call of golden eagles flashed across the sky. The jeep has driven out of the customs and is getting closer to its destination. The surrounding environment has also changed from green shade to a sky full of yellow sand.
There was a row of tents pitched at the end of the horizon. Miao Yingying held the steering wheel and her eyes lit up:
"That one should be the camp that manages the entrance to Shisha Lake!"
"Looks like someone from the Secret Bureau Bureau." Luo He said.
"Go over and ask first," Wei Zhe said.
Everyone got off the car and headed to the camp.
"Hello, we are a team that has received a commission to come to Shisha Lake to attack giant sickle crabs." Miao Yingying stepped forward and said: "You should have received the specific information."
After hearing this, the guard's eyes lit up, as if he had seen a savior, and said:
"Wait a moment, I'll ask our captain to come."
After a moment, a tall and rugged woman came over and said calmly:
"A total of five of you entered Shisha Lake, right?"
"Yes."
"Okay, you can go in now." The tall woman said neatly, crossing her arms: "But I must remind you that the giant sickle crabs here are not the ones you see around the city, and they are not harmful.
Pet beasts, they can really eat people. If something goes wrong with you, our people can't save you. You are young, so safety must be the top priority in everything, do you understand?"
"clear."
"Well, also, there was a team that accepted the same commission as you and has been entering Shisha Lake for about an hour."
The tall woman said: "If we encounter one, you can cooperate with each other and defeat the [Large Scythe Crab] together. This way the difficulty will be slightly lower..."
Tu Yanwu said coldly: "What if the previous team had already died?"
"No crow mouth allowed!" Miao Yingying glared at him.
The tall woman held her forehead and sighed softly: "Then I'll trouble you to collect the corpse... At least, we can only guard the outside. We can't handle the inside, otherwise we won't issue the commission..."
Wei Zhe nodded slightly and said, "Leave it to us."
The guards of the camp moved out of the way, and there was a vast sandy plain behind the tent. There was a rocky mountain at the end of the sandy plain, and it was vaguely visible that the rocky mountain was surrounded by rocks and wetlands.
"The stone sand lake opposite is where the [Large Scythe Crab] is." The tall woman pointed to the end of the sandy plain, "It will take you about half an hour to get there. In short, pay attention to safety."
Everyone nodded.
Yellow sand fills the sky, covering the bones.
The sand plain is full of murderous intent, and sand pythons and desert scorpions appear from time to time.
Everyone summoned their pet beasts, formed a square formation with their pet beasts outside and their trainers included, and slowly moved deeper into the sandy plain.
Miao Yingying's pet beast is a 'red sand snake', with a blood-red body and black spots on its back, and is of earth attribute.
The pet beasts sent by Wei Zhe and Tu Yanwu are 'Mechanical Bird' and 'Fire Bullfighting' respectively, with mechanical and fire attributes.
Ye Zhi was holding a sword with an exquisite scabbard and a cold look in her eyes, guarding the surroundings together with her thunder-attributed 'Chidori' sword.
Luo He asked Xiaojiu to go ahead in order to minimize the risk.
Halfway through the journey, a strong wind and sand blew, and the yellow sand blew into everyone's eyes. Tu Yanwu suddenly let out an "ouch".
"What's wrong?" Luo He asked.
"I think I tripped over something!"
Huh-huh——
Along with the words, a "stone" slowly opened its eyes and waved a pair of giant sickle-like pincers, glowing with a deep and cold light.
Tu Yanwu's expression changed slightly: "Good guy, this is the giant sickle crab!"
Bai Zetu records that the giant sickle crab has the habit of burying its body in the sand with only its back shell exposed. If you don't pay attention, it will be no different from a stone.
The way to restrain it is to attack its crab legs - as long as you cut off its crab legs and control the distance, the giant scythe will not be a threat!
Luo He's thoughts were like lightning, and he was about to let Xiao Jiu take action, but he couldn't help but froze for a moment.
Crash--
Looking around, there were about a dozen "stones" crawling up across the sandy plain, waving their giant pincers, and staring eagerly.
"This is a stab in the old man's nest!" Tu Yanwu shouted.
"Calm down, this is the difficulty of multi-person delegation." Wei Zhe said, "Keep your formation, deal with the giant crab in front of you, and leave your back to your teammates!"
Choking——
More than a dozen giant sickle crabs came rampantly, their metal sickle-like pincers constantly opening and closing, making a harsh sound like the collision of weapons.
A giant sickle crab was the first to attack, leaping up with all its eight claws and slashing out a sharp-edged sickle!
"Damn it, this crab can still jump!" Tu Yanwu said in shock.
"A lively dragon and a vigorous tiger indicate freshness!" Luo He replied.
Clang!
Ye Zhi drew her sword and successfully blocked it, sparking a series of sparks. With a stern look in her eyes, she slashed out the sword with her backhand, and with the power of thunder, she directly flew away the giant sickle crab!
"Moo——"
On Tu Yanwu's side, Fierce Bull was covered in flames and charged fiercely, knocking over three or four giant sickle crabs in one fell swoop.
"Luo He!!"
Miao Yingying's voice was solemn and she said loudly: "There is an extra-large crab over there, let you deal with it!"
Luo He looked around and saw only a huge giant sickle crab, casting a shadow and waving two sickles, majestic and majestic, like a victorious general!
"Is this the target we want to attack?" Luo He said.
"I don't know, kill it first!" Miao Yingying said.
"clear!"
"Everyone maintain the formation, change positions, and let Luo He face the big crab!" Wei Zhe commanded loudly.
Everyone maintained a square formation, turned back to back, faced giant sickle crabs from all directions, and Luo He faced off against the huge "victorious general".
The situation was critical, but there was no time to talk in circles, so Luo Helin said in a loud voice: "Xiaojiu, the flames rise to the dragon!!"
boom!!
Xiao Jiu's whole body erupted with surging golden flames, his eyes were blazing, and he rushed out with a 'bang'.
Its whole body is wrapped with the flames of a king-level 'Flamy Dragon Bullet', and it swings out a ferocious flame fist, like a flame dragon flying in the sky, roaring and swallowing the giant sickle crab!
Boom!!
The flames surged and the heat wave blew.
The large giant sickle crab was actually thrown away by this punch. It was suspended in the air for a moment, then fell to the ground with a bang, its carapace cracked, and it was unable to move!
Hearing the noise, everyone in the school team looked at Luo He in unison, dazed for a moment.
Our side has just started fighting, but your side has already ended the fight?
Strike fast and hard!
"Xiaojiu, support everyone!" Luo He commanded.
"Hey!"
Xiao Jiu's eyes ignited with golden light, and he shot out two beams of light, sweeping towards the giant sickle crab group.
King-level move, Sun God Eye!
boom--
Destroy the dead, and set fire to the prairie fire.
For a moment, the aroma of barbecued crab claws even wafted over the battlefield, making everyone's expressions a little strange.
Although it is easy to win, there seems to be no sense of participation...
The crisis is declared over.
Ye Zhi stepped forward with a cold face and touched up the giant sickle crabs that were not yet cool enough one by one.
Tu Yanwu couldn't help but said: "Miss Ye Zhi, she is a wolf killer..."
"To cut the weeds, we need to remove the roots." Miao Yingying looked at the large giant sickle crab that fell to the ground, a little incredulous: "By the way, our mission has been completed? Is it that simple?"
Wei Zhe frowned slightly and was about to speak when he suddenly saw dust and sand billowing in the distance.
Taking a closer look, a group of trainers were running from afar!
The leader was a long-haired young man, carrying a sword scabbard and running as fast as he could, followed closely by his teammates.
Seeing Luo He and others, the long-haired young man was stunned for a moment, quickly realized something, and said loudly:
"Run!!"
After the words fell, behind the long-haired young man, a huge black shadow slowly appeared from the hillside.
Shadows shrouded the faces of Luo He and others. Looking up at the huge creature, everyone's faces showed shocked expressions.
"Damn, this crab is bigger!"
Luo He swallowed.
If we say, the giant sickle crab that Xiaojiu killed just now was a large one.
So the one in front of me is an extra-large one!
Mission target, large giant sickle crab!
Its back shell is like metal, its eyes move in all directions, and its pair of huge sickles and iron pliers are intimidating.
Although it is a high-level commander, with its size and terrifying giant scythe, it is even more oppressive than the Flame King Lizard in the Yunling Mountains!
"Why are you still standing there!!"
The long-haired young man led his teammates and ran toward Luo He and others. He was afraid that Luo He would not believe in evil, so he shouted:
"We are the Gudu University team! Make an emergency retreat now, and you should run for your lives too!"
The implication is that Gudu University has retreated, and other teams have to flee as well!
Hearing this, Miao Yingying hissed... The strength of the large giant sickle crab obviously exceeded expectations.
To withdraw or not to withdraw, this question needs to be decided in an instant.
If you retreat, this mission will be fruitless, but if you don't retreat... you may even risk the lives of the entire team!
Wei Zhe took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "We——"
"No need to withdraw."
Luo He walked to the front of the team, the hem of his white shirt swaying slightly with the strong wind.
"Leave it to me."
Wei Zhe, Miao Yingying, Ye Zhi, and Tu Yanwu were stunned at the same time. They looked at Luo He's back and were speechless for a moment.
The long-haired young man rushed over and saw four people standing still. One handsome guy even walked to the front looking for his own death, gritting his teeth with difficulty.
Qiang——
He pulled out the sword on his back and looked up at the giant sickle crab with a determined look in his eyes.
"Captain!?" teammates exclaimed.
"Leave me alone, you retreat first."
The long-haired young man said decisively:
"I am the captain of Gudu University, and I have the obligation to protect the weak!"
The next second.
Blue blood fell from the sky and landed on the long-haired young man's cheek.
There was dead silence all around.
The long-haired young man stayed where he was, looking up, his eyes changing from blank to shocked and absent-minded.
His whole body trembled, and a hoarse hiss escaped from his throat——
The giant sickle crab has a huge hole in its unbridled carapace, like a bullet piercing its head!
And behind the large giant sickle crab, a nine-section wolf landed lightly, dissipating the flames around it.
what happened?!
The long-haired young man's eyes trembled.
Everyone in the Gudu University team was stunned on the spot.
The members of the Yunnan University team were stunned, repeating the scene just now in their minds.
In an instant, Xiao Jiu suddenly jumped up, his whole body steaming with crimson flames, carrying a roaring flame dragon, flying into the air with a raging kick of flames.
boom!!!
That flaming flying kick actually pierced the carapace of the giant sickle crab, killing the target in one fell swoop!
There was silence everywhere.
All eyes were focused on Luo He's face, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.
"Just now, that was..." the long-haired young man asked hoarsely, "What move was it?"
Luo He's eyes flickered.
Zhu Tiansiming who strengthened his explosive power, plus the fighting and kicking skills taught by the totem-level chipmunk, plus the medicinal food prepared for breakfast...
This kick was an irresistible blow for Xiaojiu!
The long-haired young man's eyes were filled with longing and he said respectfully:
"Master, please tell me!"
Luo He pondered for a moment and said: "I named this move...Nine-section Wolf Flying Kick."
"Nine-section wolf, flying kick?" The long-haired young man looked confused.
Luo He nodded, looked at Miao Yingying who was stunned, and said:
"Captain, is our mission completed?"
Miao Yingying glanced at the large sickle crab that fell to the ground, then looked at Luo He who looked calm, and nodded blankly.
Her eyes were full of disbelief, and she whispered for a long time:
"Wei Zhe..."
"What's wrong?" Wei Zhe held up the frame of the mirror with trembling hands.
"I seem to know what tactics our Yunnan University needs to rely on to win the team competition..." Miao Yingying whispered.
"I also know..."
Wei Zhe's eyes shimmered and he said in a deep voice:
"Our tactic is to protect four and one...wait for Luo He to exert his strength!"
