His foot landed on the snowdrift, which was immediately scattered by the circular shockwave. It exploded into a cloud of snow powder that rose into the air and then drifted down into the wind. Callio looked around. The energy in this area was extremely chaotic. It was a phenomenon that happened only after the element was self-ignited. This allowed him to sense where Valkyrie was. From the energy equivalent of the spontaneous combustion of the elements, the power of this self-detonation should be around the sixth or seventh step.
As long as it wasn't a powerhouse of the eighth step or above, Kalio believed that as long as Valkyrie wasn't in the center of the explosion, his life would not be in danger. But in this new snow-covered landscape, he could not see the Valkyrie. He had no choice but to roar.
The roars made by the rank 8 power were like a sonic boom. Everywhere the sound wave passed by, snow would be blown up, and the sound would be like a clap of thunder. I believe that as long as they weren't deaf, they would be able to hear his voice.
After roaring for more than a dozen times, a battle spear suddenly flew out from the snow, stabbing towards Kalio with lightning speed.
Although the spear was sharp, it didn't have any additional strength or superpower. It looked more like someone had thrown the spear at the chief instructor. A smile broke out on Kalio's old face. He opened his large, callused hands and grasped the battle spear in his hands. The cold of the gun made him shiver, and then he saw a snowdrift not far away. Then Valkyrie stood up from the scattered snow, her purple hair flapping in the wind like a ball of burning purple flame.
There was a bit of black ash on her face, which made her look awkward. But the light remained in those eyes, and he knew that she had suffered only minor injuries, probably from the shock wave from the explosion. Of course, for those below the eighth step, even if they were hit by the blowing wind, they would still be seriously injured. After all, spontaneous combustion of the elements was at the cost of one's life. As long as someone at the fifth step or above were to use it, they would be able to achieve the power of a nuclear explosion.
Kalio walked over to Valkyrie and laughed out loud, "You are indeed the daughter of that old thing. The explosion of a rank 7 elementalist did not take your life."
At the time, she had been caught by Dom and was, so to speak, directly in the center of the explosion. If she had not torn off Dom's arm in time and instantly dashed to the edge of the explosion, it would not have been as simple as fainting due to the shock. If they were directly in the center of the explosion, even if the Varkiah was protected by the battle qi, they would still be seriously injured if they didn't die.
Once a high-level esper was severely injured, it meant that they would be unable to recover from their injuries, and their power would regress as well. If that happened, it would be even worse than death for an expert who had always been high and mighty.
Valkyrie quickly checked his wounds. Apart from the 30% energy consumed to counteract the impact of the explosion, only some of the blood vessels in his body were bruised from the shock. It was only a minor injury, and at the thought of Valkyrie, the cells in the blood immediately became highly active. They quickly cleaned up the dead cells and the clotted blood. Finally, Valkyrie opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of purplish black blood onto the ground. However, her internal injuries had already healed.
This was the biggest difference between a capable person and an ordinary person. For a high-level esper, their control over themselves had already reached the cell level. If they were to continue evolving, it was not impossible for them to control their molecular structure or even their nano-level depth!
Seeing that Valkyrie was fine, he put away his smile and asked in a low voice, "What happened?"
"One rank 6 and two rank 7 killers." Valkyrie's pupils flashed with a cold light. "Their target is zero!"
Kalio was stunned, "Zero? Which organization are they from? "
"Not yet." Valkyrie shook his head.
"Wait, you said it's three people?"
"Yeah, but a rat got away."
"No, that's not what I meant." "Yesterday, I received an order from the headquarters that three middle-rank experts would be participating in this assessment, in order to test the new recruits' ability to adapt. But up until now, the so called examiner had yet to discover it. "And such a coincidence, you also encountered three middle-ranked espers …"
Valkyrie narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Do you mean that someone in the headquarters opened the back door and let these three rats in?"
"If the so-called examiner doesn't appear by the end of the exam, I can't deny that thought." Callio nodded.
"There aren't many people who can issue orders through the headquarters command system, and when I get back, I will definitely investigate this matter. But now, I have more important things to do. "
"You want to enter the base?" "Even though you weren't heavily injured, the energy you have now is insufficient to activate your battle qi domain. It's not safe to enter the base now."
Valkyrie took his Eternal Spear and said lightly, "I have no choice. Zero is of incomparable importance to the entire human society. If circumstances require me to make a sacrifice, I will not frown. "
"You are Ben's precious daughter. He will not let you sacrifice yourself so easily. I'll go with you and take a look at the grades of those kids. "
Valkyrie's eyes immediately lit up. Even though the main instructor wasn't any of the members of the Twelve Sovereigns' Hall, he didn't have a single recruit instructor who had just underestimated this Hammer of Destruction. In the Heroic Spirit Hall, Kalio was the only one who could defeat most powerhouses of the ninth step with his strength at the eighth step. During the war with the Dark Council, the title of the Steel Tiger of Kalios could make the powerhouses of the Dark Council tremble in fear.
If he went with them, his chances of winning by fifty percent would increase to seventy percent. Even if the two of them were to face the powerful will from the deepest part of the base, even if they were not a match for it, it was still enough for them to retreat with zero damage!
Without saying a word, the tip of Valkyrie's foot lightly tapped on the snow, her entire body skating over a dozen meters, followed by another skating distance. Callio wasn't as graceful and graceful as she was when she moved. He continued to plow a ravine in the snow with his almost barbaric method.
At the entrance of the underground passage to the fourth floor, an alloyed fire door was tightly locked, sealing off the flow of traffic between the two floors. Staring at the unmoving door, he turned to Eva.
Eva spread her hands and said, "Don't look at me like that. I did bring it with me when I left, but I didn't expect that after two years, the lock was rusty."
Zero shook his head and looked at the lock on the fire door. He was about to force the bolt to open the door when Eva pulled the heavy sword from the black dragon. With each grasp, the black dragon's two sides immediately spewed out a thousand degrees of heat. Eva made a short sprint, and her heavy sword came slashing down.
The black dragon's flame was extremely sharp. It cut through the alloy door without any obstruction, and hacked it into two halves. Eva lifted her leg and kicked again. The power of the fifth step erupted like a torrential flood, immediately breaking the two doors and rolling all the way down the stairs.
Eva scattered the black dragon's hot flame, but the sword was still too hot, so instead of withdrawing her sword, she leaned against the ground. She looked at Zero, raised her chin and said, "Big sister has her own matters to settle by herself!"
Zero did not react at all to her calling herself his sister. He looked towards the empty and dark passage and said, "Now, we just need to wait for Feng to come back and we can move towards the fourth layer."
Hearing him say this, Su Li said worriedly, "I wonder if that guy is okay."
As soon as she finished her sentence, a lazy voice came from behind the crowd, "Even if you don't know, you'll still worry about me. If you do, I'll die with no regrets."
This was Feng's voice. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Feng walking alone, in the darkness of the passageway, towards them. He said it lightly, but his body was unusually "intense." Putting aside the criss-crossing wounds on his battle uniform, just the two massive wounds on his left leg and left arm that were almost able to slice open his limbs were enough to make anyone's heart jump to his throat.
"Are you alright?" When Sue saw this, she had already removed the walking gear, taken out the field medical kit, and gave the maple a simple disinfectant and nursing.
Seeing Feng's intoxicated expression, Ling Xiao knew that this man wouldn't die. The team then rested for a while in front of the entrance, quietly waiting for Su Feng to treat their wounds.
Feng explained what had happened to him. Naturally, he went to the movie theater in the rest area. He only explained how he had lured most of the bugs out of their nest. However, when he led the army of bugs around the base, for some reason, these guys retreated. Although Feng was simple, the wounds on his body reminded everyone that the process wasn't as easy as he said it would be.
"Alright."
When the last wound was bandaged, Feng almost became a mummy. From another point of view, Sue's nursing skills were not something to be flattered about. However, she had stopped the bleeding and the poison had dissipated, so no one said anything. However, everyone looked at Feng with an unnatural look, and Ma Pei had to work even harder to hold back his laughter.
However, Feng didn't think much of it. He stood up, pointed at the dark tunnel and said, "We've already wasted too much time. Why don't we leave now? I just want to finish this mission as soon as possible and get out of here as soon as possible. Damn, this is the first time I've missed old Henry's crappy bar! "
Naturally, no one would object to this suggestion, so Zero took the lead and headed towards the dark staircase. Following him were Chieko and Marpey, followed by the two Ripper's and the few living corpse shooters. Feng was about to move away when he slapped Eva's back.
Eve smiled and whispered in his ear, "Nice play."
"Nothing much, the plot needs to be done." Feng let out a laugh and ignored Eva, stretching out his thigh to follow the rest of the team.
She gave him a hard look, and the fire in her eyes danced.
