Chapter 118: The Countdown

Chapter 118: The Countdown

There was only a two-second gap between the time Tang Cuo restored his human shape to the moment he raised his sword to join the battle.

The motorbike stopped abruptly and Chi Yan rolled down from it. Before he could stand up straight, Tang Cuos sword aura swept past his side and cut apart a living corpse with a few strikes.

The living corpse wriggled and soon stopped twitching, but its unmoving remnant didnt glow with a white light and disappear like a usual dead player.

At this moment, in Chi Yans eyes, Tang Cuo was like a tiger that had jumped out of the cage. There was no such limit that his Tang ge became coolest; in fact, he simply got cooler every time.

Ge, Ill help you! Chi Yan rolled up his sleeves, there was no weapon there, only a tightly clasped black metal bracelet on his right wrist.

As he swung his fist, the black bracelet made a clicking sound and suddenly split apart, turning into pieces of an armour and reassembled themselves. In just one breath, Chi Yans right arm was fully armed.

Bang! Chi Yan knelt on one knee and punched the ground.

The hard black cobblestone ground was cracked inch by inch, and all the living corpses within ten meters of the circle where Chi Yan was the center were shaken left and right. Tang Cuo happened to be in the air at this moment, and by the time he landed, no enemy was left standing.

He swiftly slashed his sword, chopping off in the living corpses before they even got a chance to stand up. Turning back to look at Chi Yan, his expression exuded a tinge of astonishment: What was it that you used?

Chi Yan immediately raised his arm, showing it to Tang Cuo as though making an offering: An equipment I found in the dungeon. Its an armour set made for future knights called [Divine Guardian].

How wonderfully chuunibyou.

Although Tang Cuo quietly slandered the equipment in his heart, he also felt that this mecha arm was particularly suitable for Chi Yan. Also, it seemed to be only one part of a full suit; if Chi Yan collected all of them, his defence and damage abilities would likely become noteworthy.

At this point, Jin Chengs voice came from above his head: Two knights, before you chit-chat, can you come to help me first?

Tang Cuo looked up to see Jin Cheng squatting on the window sill on the second floor and looking down at them, smiling while gripping a dying, struggling living corpse in his hands.

Coming. Tang Cuo shook his [Sword of Judgment] and turned to kill the living corpses in all directions If this tiger doesnt show how mighty I am, theyll think Im a cat.

Chi Yan followed closely behind Tang Cuo. His mecha arm looked all cool and powerful, but he didnt rush to the front, rather, he cooperated with his ge to pick up any living corpses from behind.

His prediction was very accurate, which could also certainly be attributed to his good luck.

As a mere civil servant of Yong Ye City, the motorist, of course, didnt lend any helping hand and simply stopped by the roadside to watch the show. With Jin Cheng, Tang Cuo and Chi Yan putting up such a grandiose battle, he watched them with immense gusto, so much so that only when three of them ran far away that he remembered

Hey, little brother, you havent paid for the ride!

The motorist slammed on the accelerator to catch up, and at the same time, a big battle was unfolding in the central area.

Lilith missed her target, but she totally recognised Jin Chengs arrow. When she saw Scarlet fall, a hint of pleasure rose in her eyes. She immediately returned the cannon gun to Miao Qi, then anticipating that Scarlet might be looking for Jin Cheng, so she decisively ran to Zone E.

How could Miao Qi miss out on this sort of event? He hurried to catch up, but all of a sudden, he caught a glimpse of a red light hitting Lilith from the side.

Be careful! Miao Qi fired a cannon, but the red light had no solid body and the cannon couldnt stop it.

Lilith heard Miao Qis warning and sensed the coming of the attack. Before she even turned her head, she twisted her body to dodge at once, but the red light was so fast that it seemingly reached her in the blink of an eye.

It was Scarlet!

Lilith was familiar with this energy. She was both frightened and angry, yet a sense of joy also surged in her heart. As her mind was set on capturing Scarlet even if it meant she would be badly injured, she quickly turned her head. At that instant, a black rift suddenly appeared in front of her like a huge mouth that had cracked out of thin air and engulfed the red light.

The next second, a big hand with visible joints emerged out of the rift and mercilessly pushed her away.

Caught completely off guard, Lilith staggered to the side. She immediately looked up and saw the owner of the hand that appeared out of the rift Leng Miao.

What are you doing? Lilith said in a deep voice.

Go away. Dr. Leng was very cold when facing men, and even colder when facing women.

Okay, lets get ready to retreat. Jin Cheng said and exchanged a glance with Tang Cuo.

Tang Cuo nodded and pulled out a card.

Rainwater, the second card of the series [24 Solar Terms]. It could activate the skill Weakening Water to strike the enemy with rain within a radius of five meters for 5 seconds. Those who were struck would have their Defence halved within three minutes.

The heavy rain poured down in an instant, but before the first droplet fell, Tang Cuo, the skill summoner, grabbed Chi Yan and withdrew completely.

At the same time, Jin Cheng plucked the string on his bow: Ting The ethereal, distant note stirred the downpour, shattering all the raindrops. The rainwater, which was meant to cover only a radius of five meters, was scattered far away.

Ting!

Ting!

Jin Cheng stepped on the living corpses heads, walking back and forth as the sounds his bowstring made became faster and faster. The continuous sonic attack was like a sickle that quickly harvested the living corpses whose defence had been halved.

Just now, Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo stood idle and talked for a moment after fighting, because they deliberately wanted to hold back. This was to wait for the living corpses to gather around, then they could empty the whole battlefield in one ambush.

Chi Yans jaw literally dropped into an O shape upon the sight. If he hadnt seen it with his own eyes, he wouldnt have known that it was possible to attack like this. Meanwhile, Tang Cuos footsteps didnt come to a halt. Grabbing Chi Yan, he rushed out of the intersection, and the moment he spotted the motorbike parked on the side of the road, a light beamed in his eyes.

Jin Cheng!

Coming!

Jin Cheng swaggered as though he couldnt wait for more enemies to attack, and like a dexterous soldier with his dearest weapon on hand, he knocked down the last group of living corpses along with the brutal sounds of his bowstring. After a few jumps up and down, he came to Tang Cuos side. .

Go. Tang Cuo didnt say much. As he turned the handlebars, the motorbikes engine roared.

Jin Cheng raised an eyebrow, wanting to sit at the front position, but afraid that Tang Cuo would kick him off the bike, he obediently settled on the back seat after a neat swing of his long legs.

By their side, Chi Yan looked all tiny, pitiful and helpless. Just as he was about to ask where he should sit, Jin Cheng pulled him up and put him at the very rear.

Hold on tight. If you fall off, we wont pick you up.

Okay, okay aaah! Before Chi Yans butt even touched the pillion, the motorbike flew out like an arrow fired from a bowstring. The boy swiftly grasped Jin Chengs shoulders and squatted down in an extremely dangerous posture.

With many butterflies flapping in his stomach, he looked back and happened to see the motorist running out from the small restaurant on the roadside, still with a Chinese wrap in his hand: My bike!!!

Chi Yan quickly turned around: Is it okay to steal the bike? We wont be punished by the system, right?

Jin Cheng shook his head: Dont bother. You see, isnt your ge so handsome when he rides a motorbike?

Chi Yan was successfully distracted by this, and he cautiously poked his head out to see Tang Cuos focused and handsome profile. He nodded with much agreement His ge was super cool, super handsome and had such long legs, and he looked even more handsome when riding a bike.

Tang Cuo: Shut up.

The motorbikes route was clear; it was heading for where the signal flare came from. But before the three of them arrived, a hoarse voice echoed in the air.

It seemed like the voice that often made announcements to the whole city, but at this moment, it was replaced by a womans voice.

Jin Cheng, have you killed to your hearts content?

That was a gift I gave you in exchange for something else.

A year ago, four people, you, Lin Yandong, Rong Yi and Chong Yanzhang, took away my 2nd Movement. Now Chong Yanzhang is dead, and Lin Yandong has been sent to Zone G. I dont care whos holding the 2nd Movement now, Rong Yi and you have 24 hours to return the movement to me. Otherwise, the people lying on the ground will really die and wont enter Zone G. For an eternity, they wont reincarnate.

As the voice fell, Chi Yans eyes widened and he almost fell off the motorbike in shock. At this moment, he saw people in the buildings on both sides opened the windows and poked their heads out.

Countless people and countless eyes began to gather.

The woman laughed: Arent you very smart? The countdown starts now.
