Chapter 86

Although the name of the Blood Sac Pirates sounded strange, they were not weak. Captain Lex and Deputy Captain Ulrif were both Rank-8 Gene Bodies, and both of them had a bounty of more than ten billion Star Credits. Military Counselor Alcher was a Rank-7 Gene Body, and the rest of the crew were basically Rank-6 Gene Bodies and above. Their overall strength was enough to rank in the top twenty in the entire Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation.

However, this crew was unlucky. Every time something big happened, they would be late for various reasons. As a result, they did not have much exposure in the media, and not many people knew about them.

"Hey, don't you need help? Your deputy captain seems to be getting beaten up pretty badly. "Gu Ding pointed at the two who were fighting fiercely on the battlefield.

Although they were fighting fiercely, it was basically Ulrif taking a one-sided beating.

Countless thick vines with sharp barbs were summoned by Lancelot. They burrowed out of the sand and attacked Ulrif like agile pythons.

According to Neptune's research, those vines were called Desert Poison Dragons, and their barbs contained a large amount of neurotoxin. If an ordinary person was touched by the barbs, a piece of flesh would be scraped off, and their nerves would be completely paralyzed, rendering them unable to move.

Contrary to Gu Ding's expectations, Ulrif did not dodge at all. Instead, he used brute force to defend himself, allowing the thorny vines to lash at him.

In less than a minute, he was covered in blood and flesh.

"Do you know what my favorite combat environment is?" Lancelot laughed as he controlled the vines to whip Ulrif. "One is the desert, and the other is the sea. Because these two environments allow me to summon the most powerful vines. The vines are indestructible, and they have poisonous thorns and toxins … "

A thick vine wrapped itself around Ulrif's calf and then climbed up his calf, quickly binding Ulrif tightly. The barbed thorns dug deep into Ulrif's skin, penetrating deep into his flesh. Then, the vine began to move around Ulrif, pulling out one deep wound after another on his body, like a ravine in the earth.

Then, a second and third vine wrapped itself around Ulrif, and in an instant, there was not a single piece of intact flesh on Ulrif's body.

However, the rest of the Blood Sac Pirates only watched in silence. Lex did not even watch Ulrif's battle from the beginning to the end. He was still coaxing Liliath to eat sweets.

Seeing that Gu Ding was pointing at the battlefield, Alcher smiled and shook his head. He explained, "Our second-in-command's ability is very special. He can take the pain that the other party inflicts on him and turn it into his own strength, then return it to the other party several times over."

"Are you talking about copying the opponent's moves?" Gu Ding was curious about this ability.

"It's not the technique. It's the effect of the technique." Alcher shook his head. "Right now, the opponent is using rattan attacks. When the time comes, vice-captain, even if you use your fists to counterattack, the attack on the opponent's body will still be a rattan attack."

"The effect of punching vines …" Gu Ding felt that this ability was very special.

"This ability is actually a type of curse ability. The greater the damage suffered by the attacker, the stronger the power of the curse on the attacker. When the damage has accumulated to a certain amount, the curse will be completed, and the power of the curse on the attacker will explode, causing instant damage. "After Neptune's explanation, Gu Ding understood how this ability worked.

Ulrif, who was covered in blood, was attacked by Lancelot for nearly ten minutes. His body swayed, but he still stood firm. No matter how Lancelot attacked, he did not fall.

Lancelot was getting more and more impatient. He kept feeling that something was wrong because the other party was a Rank 8 Gene Body like him. On the other hand, he was only a Rank 8 Gene Body. Logically speaking, the other party had no way of fighting back. This was a little suspicious. After attacking for a long time without making the other party fall, Lancelot increasingly felt that the other party was luring him into attacking.

Thinking of this, he secretly summoned a few rattans, hid them in the sand, and attacked Liliath, who was the weakest. He no longer planned to tangle with Ulrif. As for the Interstellar Pirates present, he would kill as many as he could.

The moment the rattans appeared, Gu Ding seemed to see Lex move, and all the rattans instantly turned into pieces. "What did your captain do just now?"

"Our captain is a swordsman. Apart from that, he has a special ability, speed." Alcher gave a simple explanation and did not explain the ability in detail.

"Speed ability. It can increase one's own speed, but it can also reduce the speed of other people or objects within a certain range." Neptune explained to Gu Ding. "This is a high-level ability that is very difficult to awaken. The guy just now sped up his movements by seven times in an instant, which also slowed down the movements of the rattans by seven times. In an instant, the rattans were cut into pieces. "

Lancelot's attack did not succeed. He finally realized that the strongest person in this crew was not the guy he was fighting, but someone else. The speed of the other party's sword earlier was so fast that even he could only catch a glimpse of its afterimage. He looked at Lex with some caution. The strength that the other party had just displayed was clearly that of a Peak Rank 8 Gene Body, which was no weaker than an Army General-level powerhouse.

Seeing Lex's strength, Gu Ding was slightly relieved. With him protecting Liliath, there should not be any safety issues.

After resolving Liliath's crisis, Lex slowly stood up, turned around, and cast his gaze on Lancelot. "You deserve to die!"

"Muscleman, this is my battle!" Ulrif did not even turn his head. He seemed to feel Lex's murderous intent, so he spoke up to stop him.

"I'll give you three minutes. If you don't get rid of this guy, I'll take his head myself." With that, Lex turned around and smiled at Lilliath. "Little girl, I'll help you beat these bad uncles away."

Liliath looked at Gu Ding helplessly and seemed to remember something. "Uncle, are you going to the superweapon's location too?"

"That's right. I'm going to challenge Sharp and make myself stronger!" Lex nodded.

"You're not here for the superweapon?" Gu Ding looked at Alcher.

"Although our crew's strength isn't weak, it's still a little difficult for us to get that thing. We at least have that much self-awareness. Boss's main purpose for coming here this time is to challenge the Army General Sharp, improve his understanding of swordsmanship, and increase his exposure in the media, "Alcher explained patiently. Alcher explained patiently. He glanced at Gu Ding and gave a sincere suggestion. "I think with your abilities, it's best that you don't get involved in this mess. There are many Rank-9 and even Rank-10 Gene Body powerhouses eyeing the superweapons. It's impossible for you to get your hands on them."

"I don't want to get involved either, but there are many things that don't depend on whether you want to or not." Gu Ding shook his head and smiled bitterly.

On the other side, Liliath also made a request to Lex. "Uncle, take us to the location of the superweapon!"
