Chapter 252: Chapter 170: Origin Monster, Legendary Grade Divinity Tool_2
Among the team members, there were agile and ranged attack types, but they either were stuck at the third difficulty level or couldn’t surpass the fourth.
Facing the Divinity creature, as powerful as a four-difficulty level boss-monster, it wasn’t that they couldn’t emerge before their defensive items ran out of power, but even if they could, they would only be sitting ducks.
To not arouse suspicions in the Dark New World.
Apart from the armed department, other departments could only provide aid at the normal speed, and couldn’t gather near the Public Security Bureau in advance to collectively resist the pollution area.
Fortunately, the defensive items requested from the headquarters were very powerful, enough to hold out until the rest of the departments could provide support.
The sandstorm dragon encircling the Public Security Bureau gradually expanded. If the source monster couldn’t be eliminated, the pollution area would continue to grow until it reached the limit of ’The Source of Doomsday’.
Just as Wang Zong was worrying about the pollution area’s constant expansion leading to the failure of the Utopia illusion.
Several figures rushed into the sandstorm...
Wang Zong looked closer, he could recognize Li Xingyue’s shell and Ye Xiaoqi’s.
As for An Yun, An Ya and the other members of the Intelligence Group, he wasn’t very familiar with them but could vaguely recognize most of them.
The warrior fully clad in armor carrying twin blades was the old colleague who had switched teams, Fang Yifei.
Suddenly, a shell drew his attention: wearing golden robes, masked, and holding two magic staves of different lengths.
"Judging from the equipment, this person has some skill. Is this a powerful helper secretly transferred by Li Xingyue from Yunjing?"
Wang Zong heard that not only in Wencheng, but Lightning Tribulation teams have increased in every city, every team now had one or two elite Apostles sent from the headquarters to help in combat.
This mage shell with excellent equipment was most likely the elite Apostle that Li Xingyue had transferred from headquarters.
"Definitely different for the privileged. Looks like whoever they brought in is quite capable... Eh? Why isn’t our armed group’s son-in-law here?"
He could recognize Lin Xun’s shell from the previous battle in the suburbs. The image of the stout tower-like knight transforming into a jet fighter was still fresh in his mind.
But he didn’t see a similar shell among the members of the Intelligence Group who came to aid.
Seeing the support from the Intelligence Group arrived, Wang Zong stopped chasing.
"Did something delay this kid..."
For a typical Apostle, changing shells was a very cautious affair. First, before possessing the shell, you can’t accurately judge the quality and level of the shell, and can only make a rough estimate based on the text during combat.
Secondly, obtaining a shell doesn’t mean you’ll obtain the genuine artifact 100% of the time. If you managed to get a powerful shell, but couldn’t manifest it into reality, it’s as if your real-world combat power has returned to the pre-liberation overnight.
Wang Zong has been battling in the game for many years, and to this day, the number of times he has changed shells can still be counted on one hand.
Lin Xun’s knight shell was very much to Wang Zong’s liking. For a newbie, it’s a shell that can be used till the end of time.
So he didn’t even consider the possibility of changing shells for the time being.
"Li Xingyue, you’re finally here!"
"Come on, I’m leaving this beast to you, I’ve almost run my legs off."
The giant wolf stopped gnawing at the turtle shell formation, its blood-red eyes narrowed, focusing on the new arrivals in the polluted area.
With a speed that defied its massive body size, it pounced ferociously at the crowd.
The warrior in full armor with twin blades, without uttering a word, charged forward to meet it.
The woman in a trench coat and beret lifted a huge weapon, a bizarre fusion of flesh and machinery.
The attractive female assassin raised her scythe, her slender legs pushed off the ground, leaving a series of afterimages behind, her delicate body appearing right in front of the giant wolf.
The ferocious giant wolf swept the dual-blade warrior away with one swipe of its paw, yet it couldn’t avoid the slash of the scythe.
The cold, glinting blade of the scythe, following the female assassin’s movements, left a gash on its bulky body.
The giant wolf howled in pain and pounced towards the smallest member of the crowd, the female gunfighter.
While its huge body was still in mid-air, the echoing sound of a gunshot filled the night sky.
The giant wolf’s body momentarily froze in mid-air, then continued its primal charge towards Ye Xiaoqi.
"Xiaoqi, dodge quickly!"
The female assassin called out.
The masked mage standing beside Ye Xiaoqi suddenly sidestepped in front of her.
Under the mask, a pink eye opened, staring at the incoming source monster.
The giant wolf’s body suddenly stiffened, then plummeted in front of the masked mage, stirring up a cloud of sand.
The giant wolf laid limply on the ground, twitching constantly as if it had lost the ability to move. It opened its massive mouth, its tongue hung out and stinking saliva dripped from it.
Its large eyes were filled with bewilderment.
Seeing the once fierce source monster suddenly collapse to the ground, everyone activated their shell abilities and begin their onslaught on the easy target.
Even Wang Zong, who had spent half a day chasing it, picked up his warhammer again to vent his anger on the defenseless giant wolf.
The colorful lights of the shell abilities engulfed the source monster, and soon it morphed into a mangled corpse.
The wolf’s eyes remained dazed until its death, forever lost in ecstasy.
With the demise of the source monster, the sandstorm dragon encircling the Public Security Bureau gradually subsided.
Leaving behind endless yellow sand and collapsed buildings to recount the tale of the tainted occurrence in this area.
The masked mage looked up at the sky, where several graceful figures were clearly visible, dancing in the night.
Wang Zong deactivated his defense items, the turtle shell formation and the ancient soldiers disappeared into thin air.
