I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points-Chapter 205 - Catacombs (I)

A stream of light streaked across the air.

Chen Yiming descended from the sky with Ye Yisha. He scanned his surroundings and realized that the catacombs had changed completely.

On the surface, the area above the catacombs was not large, only about seven to eight kilometers wide. The bulk of it was underground, and countless underground passages were connected with each other. Humans could not really explore the area thoroughly.

At this moment, the military had set up positions around the surface of the catacombs. A large number of cannons and tanks were arranged around the catacombs.

There was not enough time for them to set up a complete barrier. There were large gaps between the military bases.

There were a large number of soldiers in military uniforms in the camp. The artillery shells had already been loaded and were ready to be fired at any moment.

In the distance, transport vehicles appeared continuously, heading in the direction of these military bases. Not only were they carrying supplies, but there were also teams of engineers.

At this moment, three soldiers were standing back-to-back on the sentry tower, monitoring the situation in all directions.

A soldier suddenly realized that two unfamiliar figures were approaching the catacombs.

“There’s a situation. An unfamiliar young man and a woman have appeared over there. They are heading towards the military formation,” the soldier said loudly.

There were very few adventurers who would come to the catacombs to begin with. It had now been turned into a war zone, yet an unfamiliar young man and a woman suddenly approached.

Because the soldiers were only responsible for monitoring the movements in the catacombs and were not informed of the underlying reason for establishing the military bases, they treated the two of them as ordinary adventurers.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Yiming and Ye Yisha were about to pass through the watchtower and enter the catacombs through the gap between the military bases.

Such an unannounced intrusion naturally made the soldiers on the watchtower nervous.

“Stop! This place has been turned into a war zone. You are not allowed to approach it at will.”

The three soldiers shouted a warning. When they saw that the other party was about to move forward, they raised their weapons and aimed at them.

“Are we going to barge our way through like this?” Ye Yisha was a little worried and asked in a low voice.

She was only at the disciple realm, so the bullets from the guns were still very intimidating. She subconsciously felt that it was not appropriate.

“There’s no need to waste time,” Chen Yiming replied simply.

Next, he ignored the soldier’s warning and continued walking in a straight line, as if he was preparing to barge into the military camp.

“Clang!” 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮

Seeing that the other party was determined to barge in, a soldier fired a warning shot.

However, he was not aiming at the person, but at the ground half a meter in front of him.

However, to the soldier’s surprise, the bullet hit an invisible barrier and exploded. The young man and the woman were unharmed.

“It’s an adventurer at the warrior realm.”

The soldier involuntarily put down his gun and quickly took out his walkie-talkie to report to his superior.

Even if those in the disciple realm had protective techniques, they would not take the risk of being injured to face the bullets head-on. However, the soldiers with simple firearms could not fight against those in the warrior realm.

When the soldiers at the front heard the gunshots, they were alarmed. Many cannons and tanks turned around and prepared to fire at any moment.

Chen Yiming ignored all of this and continued to move forward at his original speed.

“Adventurer, this place has been turned into a war zone. Stop right there.”

A loudspeaker sounded from the military camp, signaling a warning.

The order given by the three big shots of Jiangnan City was to send troops to establish military bases to guard against the giant steel-spear spiders that might climb out of the ground.

Due to their pride, they naturally could not reveal the truth openly. Therefore, the soldiers did not know what kind of person was in front of them.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

Facing someone at the warrior realm, more than 10 cannons and tanks fired one after another.

The flames drowned out the young men and women who were trying to force their way in. The thick smoke and dust covered the figures, making it impossible to see the effect of the attacks.

Chen Yiming’s speed was not hindered at all.

Ordinary artillery and tank attacks could not even shake the internal force barrier that he had erected. They were so weak that he was not bothered at all.

Just as the cannons and tanks were waiting for the next round of firing orders, two figures suddenly walked out of the smoke and flames.

The woman was clearly shocked, but the young man beside her had no change in expression. The black cloak he was wearing was not damaged at all.

“A warrior who has mastered the transformation of internal force!”

The officer in charge of giving the order knew that conventional weapons were useless against experts of this level, so he did not continue to give the order to fire.

As for the more powerful unconventional weapons such as vacuum bombs and nuclear bombs, they were not something that ordinary officers could decide to use.

“…”

Without any orders, the soldiers did not dare to fire at will. As a result, the morale of the entire military camp was suppressed by the unfamiliar experts before they even encountered the giant steel-spear spiders.

Their opponent did not even have any interest in counterattacking, as if they were as helpless as ordinary people facing a god.

Next, the young man and the woman passed through the military camp and entered the catacombs under the watchful eyes of the artillery and tank formations.

…

On the floor of the catacombs was a forest.

Holes two to three meters in diameter appeared on the ground without any pattern.

The depths of the catacombs were dark. In this environment where there were only two ways to move, forward or backward, those who were not confident enough in their own strength would lose the courage to go any further at just one glance.

“Which hole should we choose?” Chen Yiming asked as he looked around.

There were so many underground passages that it was impossible to determine the direction. If he had not met Ye Yisha, he would only have been able to rely on brute force to charge into the catacombs.

This way, it would be easy to alert the spider emperors in advance.

Ye Yisha wiped the sweat from her forehead and listened carefully. After a while, she replied, “I can only determine the general location now. We need to enter the underground passages to determine the exact location.”

“In that case, it doesn’t matter which hole I choose,” Chen Yiming thought to himself.

Therefore, he grabbed Ye Yisha’s hand and felt the warmth from it as he jumped down from the nearest hole.

As they fell, the light in front of them gradually disappeared. A few seconds later, the two of them landed on wet ground.

Judging from the time during which they were falling, the difference in height was about 30 meters. Ye Yisha, who was a weakling in the disciple realm, might be injured from the fall. This forced Chen Yiming to change from grabbing her to carrying her horizontally.

The two of them had only known each other for less than half a day, and Ye Yisha had not even seen the other party’s true appearance. At this moment, her face was completely red, and her heart was racing uncontrollably.

The surroundings were pitch-black, and he could not even see his own fingers. Chen Yiming had no choice but to shoot out a trace of blazing internal force.

A red light immediately dispelled the darkness around them. Not only did it allow the two of them to regain their vision, but it also illuminated a giant steel-spear spider that was hanging upside down.

This was an empty underground cave. There were some broken bones of mutant beasts in the corners. When they landed, they encountered the ferocious giant steel-spear spider, which gave off a sinister and terrifying feeling.

This giant steel-spear spider was only at the disciple realm. Even though it had spread out its eight legs that were like steel spears and covered an area of nearly 10 meters, it still did not have any courage to fight against internal force users.

Just as the giant steel-spear spider was about to escape, it was hit by an unknown attack and fell to the ground with a bang.
