Chapter 1259: Chapter 13 Annihilation

"Ai Yixin, take away the spoils of war!" Tang Zheng picked up a short sword and shouted at his wife who was crouching and crying on the ground, "Mu Nianqi, are you interested in having a fight?"

"I’d be glad to!" Mu Nianqi’s smile spilled over her lips as she understood the look in Tang Zheng’s eyes. He was not out to fight with her, but to kill the Cyclops and the Magic Mirror.

"Tang Zheng, I’m sorry!" After Ai Yixin put away Sha Ou’s wristwatch, she threw it to Tang Zheng and stood in front of him, looking very uneasy. She was filled with apologies from the bottom of her heart for the group leader who had helped her many times, "I shouldn’t have been so willful, but I couldn’t help it!"

"There’s no need to explain, leave!" Tang Zheng waved his hand, gave Ai Yixin a look, and casually called out a few names, "Pang Meiqin, Zongqi, do you dare to fight?"

"Afraid you’re not a match?" Pang Meiqin snorted coldly without any fear. Others might greatly weaken when their abilities are sealed, but for her who originally had no abilities, it made no difference whatsoever.

Zongqi was chosen because Tang Zheng wanted to rely on his mental attacks. Even if sealed, he was very powerful, and might even be able to break free from the seal after bursting the seed.

"I’ll stay!" Ai Yixin knew Tang Zheng was about to face the boss and chose not to back down, wanting to fight alongside him.

"There’s no need, leave!" Tang Zheng urged again. In these few seconds, the Cyclops had used yellow grass to smoke open the Heart-eating Cage, releasing the three chosen ones. True to the Powerful Party reputation, their landing poses were cooler than anything.

Ai Yixin noticed Tang Zheng’s look and hesitated for a moment, then realized, he was asking her to help Fanfan, so she nodded in understanding and left the cave.

Zongqi took out the "Chrysanthemum Text Then Zongqi," moving as close as possible to the Magic Mirror. The handle’s 16-degree chrysanthemum family crest, like winter snow intricately carved onto it, was extremely striking.

"Don’t let me down!" Mu Nianqi also pulled out her Vampire Curved Knife. The black knife blade, branded with a bat-like pattern, and a pair of demon wings at the handle, constantly flapped, shaking off black smoke, emitting a strange and eerie aura all around.

"Mind your own business!" Pang Meiqin, holding a three-meter-long Demon Ripper, connected to the power source and the saw teeth began to rotate crazily, emitting a strong smell of blood, spreading killing intent all around.

The newbies all held their breath, being late to realize it, but they too sensed the change in the atmosphere within the cave. The Cyclops, under the strong aura of the four survivors, actually began to growl uneasily.

The masked man also sensed something was wrong and was about to take remedial measures when the attack came.

"Kill!" Tang Zheng pulled out the Roaring Queen and fired at the Magic Mirror floating mid-air, the thick energy beam like a sword piercing the vault of heaven, penetrated the black mist, and struck the Magic Mirror.

Pang Meiqin and the others burst forth, attacking the Magic Mirror simultaneously. Although Mu Nianqi had the Demon Flame Pistol, the information gathered hinted that these monsters might be immune to long-range attacks, which is why she chose to directly attack with the Vampire Curved Knife. After all, every second could mean losing a chance for combat.

The beam hit the Magic Mirror, but it did not destroy it.

"Solidify!" The mask man’s face contorted, and amidst a roar, he spewed out numerous black mist arrows, sweeping through the surroundings.

All four people quickly deployed their shields, blocking this wave of attack.

The black mist around the Magic Mirror churned, turning into a solid state and even freezing the energy beam. The six Cyclops, seeing their god-being attacked, also rushed forward wielding their wolf-tooth clubs.

Zongqi attempted to release a mental impact to stop the giants but failed. Pang Meiqin leaned forward, almost instantly teleporting out, shooting past Mu Nianqi, and with a leaping cleave, the Demon Ripper slashed into the solidified black mist, shearing off a piece.

"Burst!" Tang Zheng and Mu Nianqi almost shouted out simultaneously, following which huge clouds of blood mist erupted, shattering the black mist seals around them, and then vanished in an instant into thin air as both warriors simultaneously entered Hero Mode!

A giant ran towards Tang Zheng and swung its wolf-tooth club down at his head.

"Get lost!" Tang Zheng exerted force beneath his feet, vanished from the spot, and a second later, with a swooshing sound, appeared in front of the giant, punching it in the belly.

Bang—the giant flew backward, crashing over dozens of meters, smashing into the cave wall, its blood spattering along the way.

Tang Zheng switched to Yukishiro Maru, flashing through the cave like lightning. The newbies couldn’t catch his figure, and when they finally spotted him near the Magic Mirror, after the four giants had run a few steps, their heads suddenly snapped off, and a fountain of blood sprayed out.

"Take action!" Lin Weiguo also wasn’t idle, shooting the Magic Mirror across from the cage.

Xu Biyun failed to release her puppet, but Tang Zheng’s warriors had already picked up the burning yellow grass dropped by the giants, and quickly smoked the Heart-eating Cage.

The Man-eating Vines twisted as the Heart-eating Cage contracted, ready to devour these morsels. The newbies couldn’t stay calm anymore, all screaming for help amid the chaos.

Daylily appeared, waved her hands continuously, enhancing everyone’s agility and strength halos. Three women musketeers, under the protection of ancient generals, lit the yellow grass and liberated the newbies.

As soon as Ruan Feifei landed, she took out her Heavy Gravity Gun and fired at the Magic Mirror, hoping to capitalize on killing the Boss. Seeing that it was futile, she quickly changed tactics and started shooting at the Cyclops. Lin Jing and An Fei, both Shooting Series ability users, also held their rifles and attacked fiercely, but to no avail.

"I can’t use my ability. It seems that only those with Fourth Order Burst Seed can break free from the masked man’s seal," Li Xinlan tried, but unfortunately, she couldn’t Burst Seed.

"You bastards, all of you go to hell!" The masked man, completely concealed in the Black Mist, still roared furiously, shooting out twelve Black Mist Arrows, which then expanded to form an elliptical three-dimensional Teleportation Gate, and ugly-faced Cyclopses ran out.

Heavy breathing and roars instantly filled the cave, with huge figures moving everywhere, and slaughter spread.

"Newbies, hide in the corner, gather together. Brother Lin, Qin Yan, set up defenses, protect them," Tang Zheng commanded even amidst the battle.

Mu Nianqi’s surroundings manifested translucent arc blades, rotating around her and swiftly shooting at the Black Mist, continuously slicing it, causing it to flake off like black drifting snow.

Lin Weiguo drew his bloody dagger, dashed in front of a Cyclops with a leap, soaring upwards like a Skyrocket, the dagger piercing the Cyclops’s abdomen, then spreading upward, plowing through the chest, and finally slashing horizontally at the neck, cutting off the trachea.

With a splash, like a sudden breach in a dam, viscera mixed with a large amount of blood gushed out, drenching a female university student who couldn’t escape in time.

The second Cyclops took its place, swinging a Wolf-tooth Club, hitting the airborne, powerless Old Soldier, smashing him onto the ground.

If it weren’t for the timely appearance of the Defense Shield, Lin Weiguo would definitely have been flattened. If it weren’t for his strength being halved, he wouldn’t have been so embarrassed!

All the survivors who benefited from the Team Mission Exemption Card in the previous round had their strength halved. Dong Zixuan’s group was fine, but having just entered the Game, with no enhanced physical qualities nor Equipment, and their abilities sealed, were even more embarrassed than the weakest Tao Tao.

Fortunately, with Tang Zheng, a member of the Powerful Party, controlling the situation, Mu Nianqi wasn’t far behind—the level of her abilities was at least Fourth Order, and her Seed Ability was extremely tricky, definitely S-level.

As one of the top three in terms of team strength, Qin Yan swung her Tang Sword, relentlessly beheading Cyclopes. Skulls rolled, blood spurted, and before long, a thick layer had covered the bottom of the cave, reeking of blood.

"Those below second order, focus on defense!" Seeing the naturally silly Bai Guo foolishly charging at a Cyclops, Qin Yan quickly shouted, not wanting her teammate to make a needless sacrifice.

Tao Ran wanted to help Tang Zheng but was helpless due to his limited strength.

"Don’t overdo it!" Gu Xueqi quickly reached out and pulled her back, opening up a Defense Shield in front of her. The school beauty, capable of changing scores for a newbie’s first game, was smart, even in such times, not forgetting to win people’s hearts.

As a newcomer, although Lin Weiguo and others weren’t exclusionary, Gu Xueqi still wanted to gather more newcomers, solidifying her status. Only with good popularity, whether sharing Spoils of War or during combat, could she benefit. If she ended up like Ruan Feifei and Teng Yuangxiang, it would be too miserable.

Gu Xueqi was also prideful and confident but unlike the female anchor, she wasn’t brainless or arrogant, looking down on everyone. Of course, even if she looked down on them, Gu Xiaohua would suppress such thoughts, showing her most affable side.

For a girl who started shouldering family burdens in middle school and worked part-time, she had learned how to adapt to environments quickly!

Bai Guo, naturally silly, only thought about easing Tang Zheng and Qin Yan’s worries, wielding the Insect Bone Cleaver and Dragon’s Sharp Edge as she lunged at a Cyclops. Though she heard Qin Yan’s shout, she didn’t comply, gritting her teeth to attack the Cyclops fiercely. Because of her simplicity, she entered the Burst Seed state once again.

Crack, crack, the sealing chains of Black Mist on Bai Guo snapped. Just as the Cyclops’s Wolf-tooth Club was about to hit, she vanished into the shadow on the ground. Both Gemini Moon Shadow and Invisibility launched at the same time, and when she reappeared, it was against the backdrop of a Cyclops with bursting wounds falling to the ground.

Pang Meiqin attacked without success and landed. A Cyclops charged at her from the side. Beautiful Leg Stewardess, her right hand wielding the Demon Ripper, cut the Cyclops in half at the waist.

"No good, this guy is going to run!" As the four of them disrupted the Black Mist, Mu Nianqi saw the masked man spewing Black Mist again, and the Magic Mirror gradually turning into a phantom, about to disappear from the cave, she quickly alerted.

"He can’t escape!" Tang Zheng stretched out his long arms, grabbed the over one person tall mirror, and using all his brute force, ruthlessly smashed it to the ground.

Bang, the mirror didn’t break, but immediately after, it was struck by a warhammer blow from an incoming warrior. The Oushu Falcon flew out from the ring like a meteor, crashing straight into the mirror.

Tang Zheng turned Snowstorm around, stabbing it into the Magic Mirror. Crack, the blade pierced the mirror, and countless Black Mist suddenly lost control, spreading chaotically.

The sealing chains binding the survivors all snapped, and everyone’s abilities were restored! (To be continued. If you like this story, you are welcome to recommend votes and monthly tickets at Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
