Chapter 445 Walkthrough Begins
Bright Car Team Camp
Mei Lin seemed to sense something and looked in their direction.
"So many?"
Nine energy fluctuations, far exceeding his expectations, and Fu Xiaojian only took one potion from him.
"What?" Zhao Tiesheng didn't know why Mei Lin suddenly said such a nonsensical thing.
"It's irrelevant!"
"Everything in the camp tomorrow depends on you. I don't want anything to go wrong!" Mei Lin's gaze was icy.
"Don't worry, after planning for so long, it's finally going to come to a conclusion!"
"Remember, by noon tomorrow, no matter what, the formation must be activated."
"As long as the island frogs are okay, I'm fine too!" Zhao Tiesheng said seriously.
"Third brother will know what's good for him!" Mei Lin didn't say anything more.
The only one who overheard the conversation, Grilled Sausage, was clearly unaware of the deeper meaning behind those words.
Meanwhile, the people in the camp, already fast asleep, clearly had no idea that what awaited them was not a bright future, but a complete conspiracy.
……
The next morning, before the blood-red sun had even risen, the island in the middle of the lake was already in an uproar.
The Bright Caravan recruited almost all Sequence 5s and the rather special Sequence 4s, clearly having made the necessary preparations to conquer that bizarre Level 7 beast.
There were not many people, but there were still more than ten.
Xu Si frowned. Although there were quite a few people in front of him, they were still far from what he had expected.
He had assumed that Mei Lin would use a human wave tactic to deal with that level seven monster, but now it seemed that this was not the case.
On the other hand, in stark contrast, he and Chen Pei were the only ones venturing alone to conquer the Level 6 Mystery.
Xu Si felt that something was off.
None of the members of the Xinhuo Train Team were among those recruited by the Guangming Train Team.
Their mission was secured by Fu Xiaojian.
Like other teams, all they need to do is clear out the area after completing the map.
The main forces of the other teams also remained on the island.
Most of them are low-ranking members; their participation in the war would not only be of no help but could also become a weak point.
Xu Si couldn't help but feel that something was wrong.
With these high-end combatants transferred away, the island's defenses were completely exposed.
It looks like a diversionary tactic.
This unsettling sense of crisis inexplicably gave him the illusion of being a persecution complex.
"Go for it, Dao Ge!" Yao Yao's cheering interrupted Xu Si's thoughts.
Everything seemed normal; perhaps he was just overthinking it.
However, he still patted the little girl's head and placed a Starlink mark on her body.
At this moment, Mei Lin had already led his men eastward toward the island.
After Xu Si and Chen Pei exchanged glances, they also headed southwest.
The Sword of Kingship silently slid out from the dimensional space, and Xu Si stepped directly on it.
Chen Pei had already transformed into a stream of water and sunk into the water system surrounding the island. The two of them, one from the air and the other by water, sped towards that strange, level-six direction.
-
Fengqi Reservoir, Jiangcheng South District.
From the air, this small reservoir, which supplied irrigation for Jiangcheng's agriculture before the apocalypse, has now completely changed its appearance.
The water was no longer a clear blue, but had a strange grayish-white sheen, like a large area of diluted lime water.
A thin layer of mist swirled above the water's surface; it wasn't morning mist, but rather some eerie aura emanating from the water, carrying a faint fluorescent glow.
Perhaps due to lack of maintenance, the facilities around the reservoir are extremely dilapidated.
In particular, one corner of the reservoir dam looks like a piece has been gnawed off.
"It's really down there!" Xu Si stopped on top of an abandoned water tower at the edge of the reservoir, looking down at the water below.
The star veins unfolded silently, piercing through the grayish-white water and extending into the depths.
Ten meters, twenty meters, fifty meters...
Although he couldn't find the guy's exact location, the strange energy in the grayish-white water was as thick as paste, greatly compressing his perception range.
Xu Si did not take action immediately; he was waiting for Chen Pei to take his place.
In this aquatic environment, Chen Peineng's role is beyond imagination.
Beneath the surface, Chen Pei was already in position.
A school of countless water snakes, like piranhas, frantically searched for the hiding place of that big guy.
At this moment, every water snake is his eye, and every one of them is his tentacle.
The most basic method is often the most effective method.
This was also the first step he and Xu Si had discussed yesterday.
Looking at the rippling water, Xu Si did not slacken his efforts in the slightest.
"Found it." Xu Si smiled wickedly.
Although Chen Pei did not communicate with him, the target of the snake swarm's attack had already been identified.
Xu Si's star pulse was also detected immediately.
It was a bizarre creature over thirty meters long, curled up in the deepest layer of silt in the reservoir.
Its shape was exactly as Mei Lin described—like an electric eel magnified countless times.
Its body is cylindrical, and its skin is so smooth that it doesn't look like a living thing, but rather more like some kind of finely crafted black ceramic.
The eerie gray-white stripes run along its spine from its head to the tip of its tail, like the insulation layer on a high-voltage cable.
[Level 6 Weird Detection: Thunder Eel]
【Characteristics: Electric Field, Paralyzing Bite, Spirit-Binding Body, Thunderous Strike】
At this moment, the [Thunder Eel], which had been besieged by the snakes, had already awakened.
With a simple flash of electricity, thunder roared on the water's surface, and the snakes that had been frantically tearing at each other were now all turned into foam.
"not good!"
Xu Si sensed that Chen Pei's energy also became disordered for a moment, as if he had been electrocuted while being treated like a fish.
His true form appeared directly on the water's surface, then stirred up waves and headed towards Xu Si.
Xu Si never expected that the Thunder Eel would naturally counter Chen Pei.
With the waters covered by electric arcs, Chen Pei could no longer hide.
Unable to hide in the water, Chen Pei lost 80% of his strength.
Fortunately, the [Thunder Eel] didn't go all out just now.
Otherwise, Chen Pei might not even need to be salvaged after being hit.
Even so, Chen Pei's situation is not very optimistic, something no one had expected before the war.
"Are you alright?"
"It's nothing... I just got a shock, but I'm afraid I can't be of much help." Chen Pei waved his hand, his voice still carrying a hint of lingering fear.
Although he can turn into water, he is not truly "water" in the real sense, and cannot be indifferent to anything.
Moreover, he was reckless just now, attacking that guy directly without testing the strength first.
This time, he learned his lesson. Even though he's the son of water, he's not omnipotent in the water.
Xu Si stood at the top of the water tower, looking down at the grayish-white water below.
The thunder eel had completely emerged from the silt, its over thirty-meter-long body slowly swimming underwater, like a giant black python.
Those eerie gray-white patterns flickered on its surface, each flash accompanied by a tiny electric arc exploding underwater.
"I'll handle it, you step back!"
Chen Pei did not try to be brave; his figure transformed into a line of water, and he quickly retreated to the other side of the reservoir dam.
He is naturally suppressed in this environment. The Thunder Eel's restraint on him is at the attribute level, and forcing his way in will only make him a burden to Xu Si.
Moreover, Sequence 4 is somewhat of a stretch to match the level 6 weirdness.
