I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points-Chapter 218 - Rescue (II)
Chapter 218: Rescue (II)
The black fog internal force could completely absorb light, but it could not absorb the sound produced by the air resistance.
However, the two of them had never been carried around like this before. Therefore, even though they could hear the sound of rushing wind, they didn’t realize that they were being restrained by Chen Yiming’s internal force.
“Knock it off!”
Their second reaction was to struggle.
However, they felt like they were only ordinary people that were shackled from head to toe. They still had the strength in their bodies, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not move at all.
“I’ll break it!”
Their third reaction was to use their internal force to break through the restraints.
However, the result was terrible. Their powerful and lethal internal force was pushed back into their body as soon as it appeared.
The two of them felt that their internal force was like a ball that had hit a hard wall and bounced back.
“What should I do? Where am I?”
Xie Weilin was not someone with a strong will. After her efforts turned out to be useless, she was on the verge of tears, thinking that she had fallen for some trick.
Was her young and beautiful figure going to be revealed just like that?
“Calm down! Calm down! Calm down!” He Gang kept muttering in his heart so that he could think clearly.
He suspected that a foreign faction was secretly playing tricks on them, using some dirty tricks to stall the three of them. This way, there would be a huge problem in Lintong City.
As for the sound of rushing wind, it was just an illusion to trick him into thinking that he was no longer at his original spot.
Not long after, at the city gate, the black fog dissipated, revealing the teary-eyed Xie Weilin and the panicked He Gang.
“Why are we suddenly here?”
The two of them regained their vision, and their bodies instinctively tensed up. If the situation did not go well, they would launch a counterattack immediately.
The people around them held back their laughter, as if they had known this would happen.
He Gang and Xie Weilin saw Chen Yiming who still had a calm expression on his face.
The other party was standing not far away, but had no intention of explaining himself.
“After waiting for two days, my body is about to waste away. Do we finally have our orders?” Wang Bowen walked over and asked.
The hunting team of the Chen corporation and the disciples of the Mantis Snake Sword School knew that the powerful and terrifying mutant beasts would end up being killed by Chen Yiming.
They only needed to do the simple task of organizing and transporting the goods. Without any real effort, they could get a portion of the loot. This feeling was really addictive.
“This time, it might not be as easy as before. Did you bring the digging tools I reminded you about on the phone?” Chen Yiming nodded and asked.
“We brought them all!”
The group raised their shovels and shouted in unison.
The sound was deafening, startling the pedestrians around the city gate and causing more and more people to gather around them.
The giant steel-spear spiders would definitely all be killed by Chen Yiming, so the others had to be ready to dig out their bodies.
“Why are these people acting like idiots?”
He Gang and Xie Weilin looked at the group of people who seemed to have fallen into a frenzy.
The preparations were complete.
Another patch of black fog appeared. This time, the range was larger than before. It carried the hundred-over people and soared into the sky, quickly disappearing into the horizon.
“So it’s not an illusion!”
He Gang and Xie Weilin heard the sound of the wind along with the idle chatter of the people around them.
The two of them instantly understood the truth of the matter.
…
Lintong City was a small city with a population of hundreds of thousands of people.
At this moment, a large number of giant steel-spear spiders had already sneaked close to the city. The city was in a panic, and everyone could vaguely feel that the ground was shaking slightly.
These tremors were caused by the giant steel-spear spiders that were constantly moving underground.
Only the giant steel-spear spiders above the warrior realm could use their poisonous internal force to melt the soil and achieve the effect of complete stealth.
On the city wall, the military warriors from Lintong City gathered together and watched the giant steel-spear spiders that were sticking their heads out and sinking into the ground from time to time a few kilometers away.
“What should we do? Didn’t the higher-ups tell us that they had already sent out an expert who could suppress the giant steel-spear spiders? The giant steel-spear spiders are about to infiltrate the city, so why aren’t they showing up yet?” a burly man in a dark green military uniform asked anxiously.
The internal force of ordinary warriors could not go too far away from their bodies, so as long as the giant steel-spear spiders at the disciple realm burrowed into the ground in advance, they were not afraid of the attacks from the human warriors.
As for the giant steel-spear spiders at the warrior realm, human warriors generally did not even dare to enter the holes they had dug. They were afraid that they would be trapped underground and surrounded by the spiders.
Everyone could only watch helplessly as the giant steel-spear spiders approached the human city from underground.
“Fanghua City has just replied that they have already sent out reinforcements. They told us not to be too worried,” a bald man beside him who was also wearing a dark green military uniform took a deep breath and said in a low voice.
“Then why haven’t they arrived yet? We can’t wait much longer.”
The surrounding military warriors were full of complaints.
The giant steel-spear spiders were almost at the city gate. Everyone felt that there must have been a mistake in the arrangements.
“Let’s not wait any longer. What are the higher-ups doing? In the end, we still have to rely on ourselves to think of a solution,” the burly man’s knuckles cracked as he spoke angrily.
“That’s right. Since there’s still some time, let’s quickly spread out and set up a defense. Let’s kill as many giant steel-spear spiders as possible,” someone suggested.
“Calm down, calm down. Don’t panic. The giant steel-spear spiders won’t be able to move so quickly underground. There’s still nearly 10 minutes of buffer time,” an old man with a face full of wrinkles spoke loudly to suppress the panic in everyone’s hearts.
He was a guardian of Lintong City and had mastered the transformation of his internal force. Although he was old, as long as he stood there, it meant that Lintong City still had a chance.
“Yes!” the military warriors shouted in unison.
The old city guardian was right. They had been a little flustered just now.
The giant steel-spear spiders at the warrior realm would definitely not take the initiative to attack, and almost all of the spiders they saw were at the disciple realm.
Although they could move underground with the help of their eight steel spear-like legs, their speed was not much faster than that of ordinary people walking. It was just that they could not do anything about the giant steel-spear spiders.
“What’s that!”
Suddenly, someone pointed at a black dot in the distance.
The black dot gradually became larger. As it got closer, it could be seen that it was a patch of black fog.
Chen Yiming had a seemingly endless supply of internal force.
As long as he received the information in a timely manner, his support team would never be late.
“The people you guys were talking about earlier are here,” the old man said calmly.
His knowledge was not something that the people below his level could compare to. He could tell at a glance that the black fog was formed by internal force.
Of course, the strength of one’s internal force, the speed at which one could recover one’s internal force, and the total amount of internal force one had all differed from person to person. The old man did not have the confidence to travel like this and still have enough internal force left over to deal with the enemy.
“They’re finally here. They made us worry for a while.”
“It’s good enough that they’re here. Everyone, get ready. Let’s go into battle and kill the giant steel-spear spiders.”
“Alright, let’s attack together.”
The military warriors immediately seemed to be re-energized as they sharpened their blades and charged at the giant steel-spear spiders.
At this moment, the black fog in the air had already arrived above the group of giant steel-spear spiders that were mostly underground.
“Sir… Sir, what’s our battle plan?” Xie Weilin asked weakly.
They were about to face the giant steel-spear spiders, but Chen Yiming didn’t seem to have made any preparations at all.
“Just watch.”
Chen Yiming glanced at the delicate woman. She didn’t look like a warrior at all.
With that, he controlled the black fog and made it stay in midair.
“But…”
Xie Weilin started, then stopped. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶
In the next moment, Chen Yiming slashed at the air continuously.
In midair, a huge net that spanned 20 to 30 meters suddenly lit up. The huge net was formed by silver threads.
These silver threads came from the internal force of the Flying Crane Sword Technique.
The huge net descended from the sky, and even the thick soil did not impede its progress. In the blink of an eye, the ground was cut open by the huge net.
Screams rang out from under the ground.
Although their voices were muffled by the soil, they could still be heard by everyone, including the military warriors on the city wall.
“So you can deal with it like that!”
Everyone at the top of the city wall was shocked as they watched everything unfold in front of them with their mouths agape.
A portion of the giant steel-spear spiders that they, who were at the warrior realm, could not do anything about were killed with such a simple attack.
A large number of disorderly tremors came from the ground.
Even though the number of creatures killed by the giant net was only a small portion compared to the thousands of giant steel-spear spiders, being able to overcome their ability to sneak around underground meant that the biggest advantage of the giant steel-spear spiders was gone.
Large numbers of giant steel-spear spiders began to change their direction and escape in all directions.
“Everyone, be careful when you dig!”
Chen Yiming placed everyone on the ground and instructed them.
Soon, he returned to the air and continued to chase after the giant steel-spear spiders.
Next, thousands of giant steel-spear spiders charged over.
Other than a few steel spear spiders above the warrior realm who immediately hid deep underground and used their poisonous internal force to melt the soil and escape silently, most of the giant steel-spear spiders at the level of the disciple realm exposed their positions when they dug their way through the soil to escape. They were killed by Chen Yiming one after another through the soil.
For a time, the screams of the giant steel-spear spiders rang out continuously.
Faced with the cutting-attribute internal force, for which he had mastered the transformation, and the extraordinary strength of his internal force, the tough steel spear-like legs and the protective internal force were as soft as tofu.
“…”
On the human side, other than Chen Yiming’s subordinates, from He Gang and Xie Weilin, to the military warriors, and even the guardian of Lintong City, everyone was stunned.
He Gang and Xie Weilin finally understood why this person was in charge of the defense of such a large area.
The guardian of Lintong City could only watch from the side, unable to do anything.
It turned out that those achievements were not just for show. Instead, they were really obtained through hard work, causing them to realize how limited their worldview was.
