The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 252
Chapter 252 Earth Mode
However, now was not the time to think too much. He was here to investigate. Now that he knew the distribution of the zombies.
Right now, the only thing he needed to do was to find the weakest direction and try his best to get closer to Nandu before activating the Earth Move mode.
The so-called Earth Walk mode was a functional mode for V7 warriors. Activating this mode allowed V7 warriors to drill underground. However, this drill consumed a lot of energy.
Although Zhou Xin and the others had brought along quite a few crystal cores, this mission was extremely important. There were also Blood Eye Corpse King and Ghost Fire Corpse King, two of the top ten Corpse Kings.
I don’t know what kind of situation I’ll encounter in the future. Now that I can save the crystal nucleus, of course I can save it.
After pondering for a while, Zhou Xin finally decided to charge from the right. If the strongest Blood Eye Corpse King in the middle could not touch it, he would not touch it.
The dark blue flames of the Ghost Fire Corpse King on the left scared Zhou Xin. Although the V7 warriors weren’t too afraid of flames, Zhou Xin still decided to go to the right in the end.
The reason for that was because compared to the fire abilities of the fire zombies, the shadow zombies’ invisibility was not a threat to the V7 Warriors.
“Chi …!”
Zhou Xin asked Mo Yi to lower his altitude again and ordered in the communication, “Warrior 1, Warrior 2, attack towards the west at full speed.”
“Warrior 1, copy.”
“Warrior 2, copy.”
Qiangzi and Ling Wanyao’s voices rang out one after another, letting Zhou Xin breathe a sigh of relief. However, what he didn’t know was that.
In the scarlet region at the center of the group of corpses, the Blood Eye Corpse King stared fixedly at the black robes in the sky. His eyes shone with a dazzling red light, and a delicate smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In Zhou Xin’s eyes, the two V7 warriors swiftly adjusted their positions and started running towards the west.
The silver-white metallic shell shone brightly under the blazing sun. Its ten-meter-tall and twenty-meter-long body, coupled with the metal wings on its back, made it look like it was filled with a magical aura.
In fact, the functions of the V7 warriors, as well as the operating system, Qiangzi, Ling Wanyao, and the others, were not completely grasped.
In the middle, there was still a huge amount of space to dig. Even the Research Department only grasped the ground attack, Earth Movement Mode, as well as simple energy ray attacks, physical attacks, and so on.
As for the metal wing on his back, it was only a decoration for the time being. Of course, Zhou Xin believed that this thing would come in handy one day.
“Kuang, kuang, kuang …!”
“Kuang, kuang, kuang …!”
Qiangzi and Ling Wanyao controlled Warrior 1 and Warrior 2 and quickly attacked the west. They stepped on a bloody path among the corpses.
“Ah …!”
The Blood Eye Corpse King let out a scream. The Ghost Fire Corpse King immediately raised its head and looked up into the sky. It saw a small green dot.
The Ghost Fire Corpse King’s body quickly began to steam with dark blue flames.
“Chi … Chi … Chi … Chi …!”
Countless flaming zombies formed a dark blue fire dragon as the flames soared into the sky.
At the same time, a scarlet flood surged towards the two warriors.
Zhou Xin still thought too simply. He underestimated the Blood Eye Corpse King’s intelligence and her interest in Yifan’s forces.
The moment the Blood Eye Corpse King screamed, he knew that there was trouble. The Corpse King was obviously eyeing them.
Looking at the fire dragon and the scarlet waves on the ground, he immediately shouted in the communication, “Qiangzi, Ling Wanyao, we are being targeted by the Corpse King.”
After he finished speaking, Zhou Xin didn’t say anything else. As for Mo Yi, he didn’t need Zhou Xin’s instructions at all and quickly raised his height.
As for the fire dragon, its speed did not slow down as it flew up. However, in the sky, Mo Yi had never been afraid of anyone.
‘”Clack …!”
Mo Yi let out a cry. Suddenly, he was no longer pulling up. With a swing of his wings, he drew a green line of fire in the air. Two green flames shot out like saber astrals.
In terms of agility and speed in flight, the zombies, even Fourth Grade fire zombies, and even Corpse Kings, were not comparable to Mo Yi in terms of flying speed.
“Puchi …!”
Two streaks of azure flames exploded in the group of corpses. Zhou Xin’s sword was in his hand, and three golden sword astrals flew past Mo Yi’s back with incomparably sharp sharpness.
“Chi …!”
The wind howled, and the black robe spread out its wings. Its entire body transformed into a deep azure flame that pierced through the zombie fire dragon like a sharp blade.
“Chi … Puchi …”
His broken limbs and arms danced around, but not a single drop of blood fell. Dozens of Third Grade and Fourth Grade zombies were instantly roasted into pieces of charcoal and fell downwards.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
Three fireballs the size of dark blue leather balls followed Mo Yi’s trajectory and bombarded at top speed. Clearly, the Corpse King had attacked.
“Awoo …!”
Zhou Xin bowed three times, and the rock arrows instantly transformed into three golden wolf-type ferocious beasts that swallowed the three extremely concentrated dark blue fireballs.
“Rumble …!”
An intense explosion rang out. Golden and blue lights flashed across the sky. The three golden wolves and three blue fireballs disappeared without a trace in the light. Only three stone arrows fell down powerlessly.
“Gu Gu Gu!”
As Mo Yi soared in the rain of fireballs from the Fourth Grade zombies, he didn’t forget to let out a soft cry, as if he was praising Zhou Xin for his ability, causing the latter to not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Ah …!”
As one of the Ten Great Corpse Kings, the Ghost Fire Corpse King’s intelligence was already very high. He immediately retracted his formation and coiled up in the air like a dragon and snake.
Dark blue flames quickly spread down from its body. Soon, a coiling dragon that was burning with dark blue flames appeared in the sky.
“Chi …!”
Countless dark blue fireballs flew towards Mo Yi.
However, Mo Yi completely ignored the fireball behind him. He flapped his wings and flew up, turning into a dark green line, disappearing into the air.
As a Tier 4 mutated beast king, it knew very well that if it was the only bird, then it would be fearless.
However, it still had a teammate who could not fly. If he risked his life in this air battle, he might not be able to protect his companion who could not fly.
Mo Yi clearly remembered his master’s orders. He guarded his companions, protected them, and moved forward and backward together with his companions. He could not be willful.
“Chi …!”
As the wind whistled, Mo Yi and Zhou Xin had already disappeared.
“Ah …!”
The Ghost Fire Corpse King roared angrily and shot towards the ground. It knew clearly that if the other party insisted on running, it would not be able to catch up.
However, while Zhou Xin, Mo Yi, and the Corpse King were fighting, the two warriors below also encountered some obstacles.
The moment the Blood Eye Corpse King gave the order, a large number of zombies rushed towards them. Even her personal guards and the Bloody Legion quickly shot towards them.
Fortunately, the massive number of corpses made it impossible for the Scarlet Legion to arrive at the warriors’ side at the first possible moment.
“Kuang! Kuang! Kuang! Kuang! Kuang!”
The two V7 warriors emitted a unique mechanical sound. They were like real lions and tigers, sprinting through the corpses at full speed.
V7 warriors could run at full speed, faster than Magic Wolf motorcycles, easily reaching speeds of over 500 kilometers per hour.
Like two trains that could jump, they jumped in the sea of corpses and headed towards the southern city at full speed.
However, the Blood Eye Corpse King would easily let Qiangzi, Ling Wanyao, and the others go. In the eyes of the Blood Eye Corpse King, that interesting human might be hidden within this new type of metal beast.
As long as these two metal beasts were stopped, they might be able to find the human from last time.
“Ah …!”
Another scream, seemingly unhappy and excited, spread out from the Blood Eye Corpse King’s body. Then, it soared into the sky and headed towards the two V7 Warriors.
Qiangzi and Ling Wanyao were immediately alert when they heard the Corpse King on the left. Ling Wanyao reminded them in the communication, “Brother Qiangzi, be careful. I’m afraid the Corpse King is coming personally.”
Qiang Zi said somewhat aggrieved, “Yes, I know. Unfortunately, this is not the right time. Otherwise, I would really like to have a good fight with this Corpse King.”
Ling Wanyao said seriously, “Brother Qiangzi, even if the timing is right, we might not be a match. Look who is chasing after us.”
Qiangzi didn’t waste any time. He tapped on the projection and the main projection of the cockpit immediately revealed the scene behind the two V7 warriors.
Qiangzi and Wang Yang were stunned when they saw the V7 Warrior. It was the Blood Eye Corpse King. No wonder Ling Wanyao said that the timing was right and they might not be able to compete.
However, without waiting for the two of them to think too much, a few dark blue compressed fireballs had already been shouted at them in front of their heads.
“Rumble …!”
Amidst the smoke and dust, the two V7 warriors quickly jumped away without stopping and continued to sprint towards the southern capital.
In the communication, Qiang Zi said, “Little sister Wan Yao, watch your head. There’s no other one. It looks like a ghost fire zombie.”
Ling Wanyao immediately replied, “Yes, I have seen it. Be prepared to enter Earth Mode at any time.”
“Chi chi chi!”
“Whoosh…!”
Countless dark blue fireballs whistled towards Qiangzi’s Warrior No. 1. On Ling Wanyao’s side, the Blood Eye Corpse King finally caught up. The moment the air attack arrived, the blood red chain sword in her hand shot towards her at top speed.
Just as the attack was about to arrive, the two V7 Warriors leapt into the air under the control of Qiang Zi and Ling Wanyao at almost the same time.
“Chi …!”
As the wind whistled, the V7 Warrior’s front claws stretched forward to the front of his head. A yellow halo appeared on his body, and he leapt up like a diving sport in the pre-apocalyptic world.
“Pfft!”
The moment the two V7 warriors’ sharp claws touched the ground, ripples like water appeared on the ground.
At this time, the V7 Warrior’s entire body had turned orange yellow. He plunged into the earth, as if he had plunged into water. In an instant, he disappeared without a trace.
