Chapter 790: Delete
“I only received the news after flying near [Jialin Pass], the journey was a bit long.” Zuo Qing looked down at the battlefield beneath his feet, and when his gaze fell on a few figures, his pupils slightly constricted.
“Eh?” He let out a surprised sound, and after a moment, as if he understood something, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. “No wonder Chenlong Pass has been able to hold on until now; it turns out they… have returned.”
“Who?” Guan Zai asked in confusion.
“The Fifth Special Team.” Zuo Qing pointed towards a few figures amidst the beast tide, “And they are also students of the Sword Saint.”
“Zhou Ping’s students?”
Hearing these words, Guan Zai was slightly taken aback. He carefully scrutinized the members of the [Nightfall] team for a while and nodded, “So it’s them…”
Zuo Qing shifted his gaze away from the [Nightfall] team and looked towards the far end of the beast tide, his eyes gradually becoming serious.
“The scale of this beast tide seems to be even larger than the one six months ago… It looks like those Outer Gods can hardly wait any longer.”
“What should we do now? Should we charge directly into the mist and solve the problem at its source?” A hint of killing intent flashed in Guan Zai’s eyes.
“No.” Zuo Qing decisively shook his head. “We still don’t know the situation in the mist. What if this beast tide is just a ruse, and there are several Outer Gods lying in ambush outside the mist, waiting for us humans to walk right into their trap?
Zhou Ping is not in Daxia, and the Master and Lu Wuwei haven’t arrived yet. If we rashly charge out, the risk is too great.”
Guan Zai raised an eyebrow. He turned to stare at Zuo Qing for a long time and sighed, “As expected of someone trained by Ye Fan; their depth of thought is impressive.”
Zuo Qing smiled helplessly, “Since we are in this position, we must see further than ordinary people. After all, if our decisions go awry, the consequences will be borne by all of Daxia…”
“So you mean we should just defend?”
“Those Outer Gods can indeed manipulate a large number of ‘mysterious’ beings to form a beast tide and invade Daxia, but the ‘mysterious’ beings around Daxia are limited. The beast tide from six months ago, combined with this one, has likely exhausted the ‘mysterious’ beings in the mist at Daxia’s borders…
We don’t need to take the risk of entering the mist to fight the Outer Gods. We just need to eliminate all the ‘mysterious’ beings here, and in a short time, they won’t be able to mobilize for another large-scale beast tide. By the time they really bring in the third beast tide from other places in the mist, our war stronghold will have already been fully established.”
Guan Zai pulled down the brim of his hat, his eyes narrowing slightly. “I understand what you mean.”
He extended his hand, pointing at the roaring beast tide below, and said, “Kill them all?”
“Yes.”
…
Lin Qiye stood in the center of numerous magic circles, as if sensing something, he looked up at the sky.
Beneath the dim clouds, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air. He wore a flat-brimmed cap, obscuring his face, and his checkered shirt fluttered in the high-altitude wind. His eyes calmly observed the chaotic battlefield below.
“Mm?” Lin Qiye looked at that figure, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes. “Who is that…”
Before he could finish his sentence, a huge deep green elongated rectangle suddenly lit up in the pitch-black night above the figure’s head, slowly flickering under the sky.
It resembled the input cursor generated when a mouse clicks on a screen.
“Energy fluctuations greater than zero and less than or equal to ‘Klein’ level non-human entities within the selected range… Filtering complete.”
“Physical engine modification in progress…”
“Physical engine modification complete. A total of nine hundred seventy-two target entities captured. Please input lower-level operation commands…”
Lines of characters flashed before him.
The figure in the flat-brimmed cap raised both hands and gently tapped in the void.
At the same time, letters began to jump out one after another in front of the flickering cursor in the night sky.
“delete.”
These seven characters froze beneath the pitch-black night sky, emitting a chilling green light. Moments later, this string of characters suddenly vanished, and the world fell into a dead silence once again.
Yes, dead silence.
All the roaring, howling, and fierce ‘mysterious’ beings simultaneously froze in place, the aggressive beast tide seemed to have been paused, transforming into one statue after another, standing atop the blood-red waves.
The magic circles surrounding Lin Qiye also came to a halt. He looked at the scene before him in confusion, and the next moment, disbelief appeared on his face.
He saw nearly a thousand ‘mysterious’ beings in front of Chenlong Pass simultaneously transform into specks of deep green light, slowly disappearing into the air, as if someone had erased their existence…
The world was correcting their deaths.
In less than five seconds, the dark mass that had enveloped Chenlong Pass, except for those powerful ‘Klein’ level ‘mysterious’ beings, had completely vanished, leaving only the howling winds and rolling blood waves, signifying the bloody battle that had once occurred here.
Seven characters killed nine hundred seventy-two ‘mysterious’ beings.
Lin Qiye looked up at the figure calmly standing in the air, his heart filled with shock.
Without a doubt, that was a human pinnacle, but even for a human pinnacle, this level of combat power was too outrageous…
Lin Qiye had seen many human pinnacles, Chen Fushi, Ye Fan, Zhou Ping, You Li Longbai… but in his impression, only Zhou Ping could annihilate a beast tide in the blink of an eye.
Lin Qiye had no doubt that Zhou Ping could sweep away the entire beast tide with a single sword, but the problem was, there was only one Zhou Ping in Daxia.
The man in the checkered shirt before him might be the highest combat power in Daxia, aside from Zhou Ping.
Among the five human pinnacles of Daxia, Lin Qiye had only not seen ‘Void’ and ‘One Ride.’ If he guessed correctly, the figure before him was the guardian of Daxia’s virtual world, ‘Void’ Guan Zai.
Guan Zai had annihilated nearly all the ‘mysterious’ beings with seven characters, but the effect was still limited to those below the ‘Klein’ level, so there were still some powerful ‘mysterious’ beings at the ‘Klein’ level surviving in front of Chenlong Pass. However, at this moment, their scale was far from that of a ‘beast tide.’
A streak of blurred azure light mixed with chaotic mist fell from the sky, instantly piercing through the bodies of seven or eight ‘Klein’ level ‘mysterious’ beings, exploding them into a mist of blood that scattered everywhere.
At the far end of the beast tide, the [Medium] team was also crazily harvesting the remaining ‘mysterious’ beings.
After the arrival of Daxia’s reinforcements, in just a few minutes, the situation was reversed, and the beast tide was nearly annihilated.
Lin Qiye stood among the many magic circles, let out a long breath, waved his hand to disperse the surrounding magic circles, and the spirit of Merlin that had attached to him quietly left his body, touching the few remaining strands of hair on his head, sighing as it returned to the Psychiatric Hospital of the Gods.
