Chapter 688: Chapter 616 Iâll Record the Video Well
The same scene wasnât just happening at the main entrance to West Suburb Park.
The existence of the Black Seam was a disaster beyond S-class, and even though Luo City was a large city, the Awakeners from the Thirteenth Bureau were powerless to deal with a Super S-class disaster.
All they could do was delay and wait for reinforcements.
On the western side of the park, atop a mound of earth,
the few remaining Awakeners from the Thirteenth Bureau, severely injured, looked towards the distance with terror, as Mutant Beasts swarmed like a tide.
Then they looked ahead at the several disciples of the Immortal Gate, extremely nervous.
With just a few of them, how could they resist the hundreds of Mutant Beasts?
Yet the disciples of the Immortal Gate were not afraid; the overwhelming surge of Mutant Beasts, the force that came upon them, felt like a breeze brushing across their faces.
âCompared to âEndless Mode,â this formation is still far from enough.â
âHey, just give me time, I can handle this alone.â
âForget it, being able to deal with them doesnât mean you can stop all the Mutant Beasts. If any get through, just wait for punishment when we return to the Immortal Gate⊠letâs attack together!â
With that, he took a step forward, his hands crossed and held against his chest, clutching an ordinary Source Crystal, âFire Wave!â
Orange flames burst forth from his hands, suddenly swelling up, sweeping towards the approaching Mutant Beasts like a tidal wave.
At that moment,
another member of the Immortal Gate beside him, having absorbed the energy from a Source Crystal as well, took a deep breath, his cheeks puffed up, âWind Attack!â
A wild gust of wind suddenly emerged, rolling up ahead; the Wind Blades were like knives, leaving mottled marks on the ground, and the orange Fire Wave, with the help of the wind, grew several times larger in the face of it, enveloping all the Mutant Beasts within it.
Cracklingâ
Several meters in front of the Immortal Gate disciples, it was as if a line had been drawn, and further forward was a raging sea of fire.
A heatwave hit their faces, the air twisted, and the faint smell of something charred wafted over.
Behind them,
The Awakeners from the Thirteenth Bureau swallowed hard, disbelief filling their pupils.
Are these really just third layer Awakeners? Could they be some old Monster capable of hiding their aura?
But looking at the expressions of those Immortal Gate disciples, it seemed as though such a scene⊠had become commonplace for them?
This is not normal at all!
âŠ
To the north, a burly Immortal Gate disciple, his muscles bulging against his War Robe, was surrounded by countless Mutant Beasts with severed bodies, some still twitching with stubborn life force.
In his hand, he held a Warhammer covered in spikes, staring intently at a giant beetle with a red shell not far away.
Fifth Tier Peak.
Just its aura alone was suffocating.
Its body was even larger, like a small car, unstoppable in its charge. Several police cars forming a barrier were easily flipped over and crushed by the Red Beetle.
The disciple of the Immortal Gate standing in front of him, however, exuded just the aura of the third layer.
âImpossible to be a match!â
The Awakeners of Luo City were anxious, the pressure of the aura instilling fear in them, let alone facing such a Monster, probably only a giant figure like the Director could withstand it.
The Red Beetle charged, and where it passed, several torn and fragmented beetle corpses were tossed aside like rag dolls.
The sturdy Immortal Gate disciple looked solemn, clutching the Warhammer tightly, yet⊠he didnât dodge!
Some couldnât help but turn their heads away.
Boom~
The burly Immortal Gate disciple just slightly turned his body, allowing the sharp pincers of the Red Beetle to hit him, runes on the War Robe shimmering and vibrating at a high frequency, dissipating much of the terrifying impact force of the Red Beetle.
Click click clickâ
The ground beneath the Immortal Gate discipleâs feet had completely caved in, but he didnât take a single step back, instead, with a ferocious look on his face, he lifted the Warhammer and slammed it down hard!
The spikes pierced through the shell, and with a forceful smash, the red shell deformed and shattered, turning into mush.
The Awakeners of Luo City behind him were stunned, screaming inwardly in madness.
âŠ
At the other entrances of West Suburb Park, where it was easy to come and go, the same scenes unfolded.
Disciples of the Immortal Gate descended like divine soldiers, pulling back from the brink of disaster, while observers from the Thirteen Bureau cheered with cries of â666.â
Meanwhile, inside West Suburb Park,
the director of Luo City Branch, along with two other Fifth Tier experts, was battling against several formidable Alien Insects.
Their objective was to investigate the stable Black Seam, ordinary giant beetles, and even the giant mantis and Red Beetles couldnât stop them in their tracks.
But there were too many!
Anxia Country had seen stable Black Seams before, but their appearance didnât always bring Mutant Beasts; the other side could just as well be a wasteland.
In Anxia Country, they established a fortress right across a stable Black Seam and gradually ventured outwards.
Despite the ever-present dangers in that world and severe interference with electronic devices, their gains were also significant.
At that moment, the Luo City Director and the other two experts couldnât even approach the Black Seam due to overwhelming obstacles.
It was like poking a hornetâs nest!
Giant mantises, Red Beetles⊠with just one or two of them, they could handle it swiftly; however, five or six, even he had to tread carefully.
The director was slightly out of breath, and the other two were even worse off, having exhausted most of their stamina.
Just then,
Boom! Boom!
The ground shook and trembled.
A huge insect, as large as a truck, staggered forward.
It looked like a vastly enlarged giant beetle, with a black shell adorned with intricate patterns, beautiful yet dangerous.
The black Beetle King screeched, and a terrifying aura rushed over them like a tide.
The Luo City Director turned ashen, and the other two swayed on their feet.
âNine Layers? No, Tenth Layer!â
He had completely abandoned the thought of examining the Black Seam, wanting only to escape, but⊠he had already been targeted by the black Beetle King!
In his despair, the Luo City Director suddenly noticed that the terrifying aura had dissipated greatlyâno, it had shifted to another place.
He looked towards the 2 oâclock direction and saw two figures walking unhurriedly; the surrounding Alien Insects acted as if they didnât see themâor rather, they dodged with confusion.
Everywhere they went, Alien Insects gave way automatically!
It was her!
The Luo City Director recognized one of them, the disciple of the mysterious Immortal Gate MasterâShanggong Ling!
The other one, could it be one of the Four Directions Elders of the Immortal Gate?
He had heard that there was one elder from the Immortal Gate who was a⊠cough, a senior who had rejuvenated with age.
With a slight sigh of relief in his heart, even if it wasnât the Immortal Gate Master, this one should be formidable, right?
Thinking so,
the figure barely over one meter tall spoke with a voice that betrayed his age, âLingling, everyone else has had their turn, and you canât be an exception. Youâll take on this big fellow.â
âUhâŠâ She paused, and then continued, âIâll be in charge of video recording then. Trust my skills.â
Luo City Director: ââŠâ
The two experts: ââŠâ
Wasnât Shanggong Ling a third layer Awakener? Could it be she didnât get along with this elder?
And,
what was this business about video recording? They were still surrounded by Alien Insects!
âŠ
At the same time,
not far from Luo Cityâs West Suburb Park, the rotors of helicopters stirred up gusts of wind, visible waves of air spreading outwards.
Slowly, the massive transport helicopter descended onto a cleared space outside a police station.
Awakeners, dressed in combat gear, wearing tactical goggles, and carrying weapons, jumped off the transport helicopter, their expressions stern.
Leading the charge was Anhu Branchâs Deputy Director, Yuan Hu.
Reinforcements had arrived!
