God-Like Extraction - Chapter 493
Chapter 493: Wandering Planet (1)
A beast roar suddenly sounded.
Liu Zhi’ang and the others perked up as they walked. They quickly picked up their respective weapons and scanned their surroundings.
Soon, five strange Mutated Beasts that they had seen before appeared on their right.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Snowflakes flew and ice fragments danced.
As the five Mutated Beasts ran, their sharp claws tore through the ground, bringing with them a strong wind and scattering snow.
Amidst the shrill whistling, they dashed towards the crowd.
“Fire…”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Wang Peifeng was about to give the order to shoot freely when he heard a series of explosions.
Then, the heads of five running Ice Devils exploded in his vision. The headless bodies fell to the ground and slowly melted.
“This…” Wang Peifeng was dumbfounded.
The others were also wide-eyed with shock.
Only Han Lei and Wang Qian shouted excitedly.
“See that, everyone? When we were attacked by the Ice Devils just now, the expert also killed them like this from a distance.”
“You guys didn’t believe us before, but do you believe now? When an expert makes a move, it’s silent but powerful. If we shoot these Ice Devils with our guns, it’s impossible to break their defense without dozens of shots, but an expert can kill them in one move!”
Wang Qian and Han Lei shouted excitedly in the earpieces.
The eyes of Wang Peifeng and the others lit up as they listened, and their breathing quickened.
“Continue… Continue forward!”
Suppressing his excitement, Wang Peifeng called for everyone to continue on their way.
Then, he gave his thanks in his mind. “Thank you for your help, Perfected One!”
“It’s just a matter of convenience. There’s no need to speak more about it,” Su Jingxing replied coolly through a mental voice transmission.
When Wang Peifeng heard this, he did not continue to respond. Suppressing his excitement, he walked in front.
The group was not far from the vehicle to begin with.
After circling around a frozen mound, they arrived at their destination.
A tall armored transport vehicle was parked quietly on the icy ground.
When Wang Peifeng and company appeared, reports sounded in their earpieces
The person speaking was a team member who had stayed behind to guard the vehicle. When he saw Wang Peifeng and company, he quickly greeted them.
Wang Peifeng responded as he led the team back to the vehicle.
Su Jingxing followed them into the carriage.
He realized that the temperature inside and outside the vehicle was vastly different. It was actually about five to six degrees Celsius inside. As soon as Wang Peifeng and the others got in, they immediately took off their helmets.
“Team Leader, this is?” The man and woman who had stayed behind in the vehicle had not moved since Su Jingxing got in.
They quickly asked Wang Peifeng as he removed his helmet.
“This is a cultivation expert from outer space.”
Wang Peifeng’s expression became serious and he introduced them to Su Jingxing. “Perfected One, this is Han Lei, this is Wang Qian, this is Liu Zhi’ang…”
At the end, he said in a low voice, “The 11 of us are the garrison of the underground city, the last team of the Third Army.”
“The last?” asked Su Jingxing coolly, ignoring the gazes of Han Lei and the others.
Wang Peifeng and the others spoke the human language. Although there were some differences in dialects, it was not difficult to understand.
Su Jingxing’s language was perfectly identical as soon as he accented less.
While Liu Zhi’ang was agitated, his face was also filled with excitement. ” Perfected One, you speak the same language as we do?”
“The common language is basically the same for all humans.” Su Jingxing glanced at him. Then, without waiting for Liu Zhi’ang to speak again, he asked Wang Peifeng, “What’s with being the last team?”
“You’ve seen, Perfected One. On the way back, we encountered those snow-white monsters. We call them Ice Devils. More than a hundred years ago, such monsters suddenly appeared and hunted our members who went to the surface to patrol, search for resources, observe the situation, and so on.”
Wang Peifeng explained seriously, “The Third Army that I’m in was slowly wiped out by the Ice Devils under such circumstances, leaving only our team behind.”
“The battle with the greatest casualties was when the Ice Devils discovered the entrance to the underground city. Everyone from the Third Army was mobilized to fight the Ice Devils outside the entrance. In the end, although all the Ice Devils were wiped out, the Third Army was also crippled and never recovered.”
At this point, Wang Peifeng became depressed.
Han Lei, Liu Zhi’ang, and the others also lowered their heads. The atmosphere was somber.
“What’s going on with the Ice Devil? Have you guys captured and studied them before?” Su Jingxing asked calmly.
“Yes.” Wang Peifeng nodded and regained his composure. “Decades ago, we the northeastern underground city did and brought them back for research. However, these monsters are very strange. They died as soon as they entered the underground city and turned into a pool of snow water. It seems that they can only survive on the surface.”
“They die once the temperature rises?” Su Jingxing was surprised.
No wonder they were called Ice Devils. He wondered how they were born.
Of course, just because the Ice Devils could not enter the underground city did not mean that Wang Peifeng and the others did not have to bother about the entrance.
This was because the resources in the underground city were limited.
Although the surface was covered in thick snow, the resources were still there.
If the underground city was left to be sealed off by the Ice Devils, Liu Zhi’ang and company definitely would not live for long.
For this reason, Liu Zhi’ang and the others rose to resist after the Ice Demons discovered the entrance to the lower city.
Su Jingxing didn’t ask this question and instantly thought of the reason.
They didn’t know the origin of the Ice Devils, nor had they studied them before. To figure out the source, they just kept delaying things.
Su Jingxing thought for a moment and did not probe further. He gestured for Wang Peifeng to explain something else.
Why was the Sea Star frozen and moving in the universe?
“We have to start from more than a thousand years ago.”
Wang Peifeng picked up the glass of water beside him, took a sip, and slowly explained.
“1,037 years ago, on that day, everyone saw the sun in the sky being suddenly shot and penetrated by an arrow that came from the depths of the starry sky!
