Infinite Sun in the East China Sea

Chapter 179 Death by Consumption

Mei Sakurai glanced at Shoko in the distance. They were nearly a hundred kilometers apart at this time, and even a vague shadow could not be seen.

Seeing that the last awakened one could not attack her, she simply stopped attacking.

He then said in the communicator: "I have received a C-rank side story. You will be the one to take down this Awakened One with your Gauss sniper rifle."

In Mei Sakurai's opinion, she has already exchanged for a double D-level longbow. Although its power is a little weaker, there is no need to replace it in the short term.

What she urgently needs now is to upgrade her enhanced spiritual power to the intermediate level.

And she's gotten enough subplots.

It’s hard to explain how to repay the teammates for saving his life, so giving more side stories to Shoko is also a way of repaying them.

"Stupid Miko! The Gauss sniper rifle has a lot of recoil!" Shoko, who was far away, understood Miko's thoughts and gently chided her, "Every time I fire, the capsule's trajectory changes a bit. If I fire more than a few times, I might not be able to reach you before your power armor runs out of energy."

"Besides, we don't know if the Awakened will evolve in an environment like space... The sooner we kill this Awakened, the safer we will be!"

"Attack with me. If you really want to give up the reward points, you can buy me some things after returning to the main god space."

Mei Sakurai was stunned for a moment.

Then he pursed his lips and drew his bow to attack again.

Under the continuous attacks of enchanted arrows and Gauss sniper rifles, the awakened one who could hardly change his own trajectory and could only passively take the beating was quickly killed.

Twenty minutes later, Mei Sakurai entered the space capsule where Shoko was.

"Thanks……"

"You're welcome. We're teammates after all." Xiangzi said with a smile, "Besides, I should be thanking you. You risked your life to lead those three high-level awakeners into space. If they had stayed on the ground, they would have caused great trouble for our captain."

"Can the captain win?" Mei Sakurai asked curiously.

"It's a bit difficult..." Xiangzi shook her head with an embarrassed look on her face. "In order to kill the seriously injured Northern Abyss, Xu Feng landed on the ground. After spending some time killing Yi Sili, he was entangled by the Lion King and Southern Abyss who rushed over. Now he has even lost his speed advantage."

Xu Feng's maximum speed is faster than the two awakened ones who are good at speed.

But his acceleration is much slower, and it takes him longer to reach his fastest speed.

Every time he tried to escape from the battlefield, before he could accelerate to supersonic speed, he would be slapped back by a claw from the Abyss Dweller who was bursting with demonic energy.

The last information Shoko received before the space capsule moved away from the island was that Xu Feng had used the power of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit to transform into a ball like a large sea urchin and was in close combat with two awakened people.

"Is it so dangerous?" Mei Sakurai frowned.

She sighed and said, "We were too complacent. We should have relied on the strength of more warriors."

If there were more warriors helping them, the war would be much easier for the East China Sea team.

Especially the Black Twins, they can exert abyss-level combat power. If they had the help of these twins, the East China Sea team would not be forced to this extent.

Of course, the price is that some of the "heads" will be "taken away" by the greatsword warriors, and they will get much less side plots.

"Well, Xu Feng and I are also aware of this problem." Xiangzi said: "When I passed over the organization's headquarters in the space capsule, I notified Fukushima Haruko who stayed behind in the organization. If all goes well, the Black Twins will join the battlefield in about an hour or two."

"The two of them can at least restrain one of the Abyss One's clones. Combined with Xu Feng's own strength, killing Luciela won't be difficult."

She patted the seat beside her gently. "Just wait patiently... At the speed of this space capsule, it will probably take us more than an hour to circle the planet and return to the sky above this continent."

after an hour.

Shoko, who was sitting in the space capsule practicing the application of telekinesis in a space environment, suddenly looked much uglier.

“No support…”

She concentrated her mind and used her mental power to scan downwards. The space capsule in low-Earth orbit was moving extremely fast relative to the ground, so it was difficult for her to obtain sufficiently detailed information in this way. However, she still found her target after a moment.

——The Black Twins are still staying in the base at this time.

Shoko hurriedly contacted Fukushima Haruko again, but she did not receive a reply from Fukushima Haruko until the space capsule completely passed over the organization's headquarters and the communication was cut off.

"why?"

Mei Sakurai guessed that it was probably Haruko Fukushima who was behind this, but she didn't understand the newcomer's motives.

"Haha... that idiot probably thought we were in a mortal danger! Maybe she thought that if she intercepted my call for help, we veterans would be doomed!" Shoko sneered and said, "What a mistake! We should have left one more reliable person in the organization's base!"

"Killing a senior..." Mei Sakurai frowned.

After a moment's thought, she shook her head and said, "The number of people determines the difficulty. If enough people die in this samsara world, the difficulty of the next round will probably be much lower. And then, as one of the few surviving quasi-seniors, the newcomer can still take control of the team... What an ugly lust for power."

Shoko didn't say anything else, but just controlled the space capsule to slow down.

It only takes a few minutes to launch a spacecraft into low-Earth orbit, but it takes much longer to land.

"It will take at least two hours to land near the organization's headquarters! If you factor in the time it takes to get from the appropriate landing point to the base camp, it will take at least three hours to find the Black Twins. Damn it, too much can happen in three hours!"

Mei Sakurai consoled him, "Captain, he can fight while moving towards the organization's headquarters... Perhaps, before we land, he will receive help from the Twin Warriors."

Shoko said nothing.

She guessed some of Xu Feng's thoughts...

The land of the north.

Xu Feng, who was fighting with Luciela, was not worried about his own safety at all.

After realizing that he could not fly high, he immediately activated the ability of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit and hid himself in a sphere made of greatsword metal material with a thickness of 50 cm. There was also a shock-absorbing inner cabin made of Gundamnium alloy in the cavity of the sphere.

Safety is fully guaranteed.

Hundreds of extremely sharp swords were inserted into the sphere with a diameter of more than three meters.

This skill, named "Swallow-Swallow Fruit·Spiked Ball" by Xu Feng, was once used by him to deal with the sea goddess Colibuso. He easily blocked Colibuso's full-strength attack in anger and injured Colibuso's fist.

After obtaining a large amount of metal materials for making greatswords in this world, he further upgraded this "little trick" slightly.

The sphere has become larger, the defense layer has become thicker, and a power device has been added inside to drive this "spike ball" to roll.

Even if he allowed Luciela to attack him, it might take several hours of trying to break through his hedgehog shell.

Moreover, Xu Feng also controlled the power device inside the sphere to make this "sea urchin" roll at high speed, constantly hitting Luciela or Ricardo - Gundam Impact!
The greatswords that approached the awakened ones would vibrate at a high frequency or rotate at a high speed. Every time they hit two awakened ones, they would tear off a large amount of flesh and blood from their bodies, causing them serious injuries.

After a brief exchange, Luciela, who theoretically possessed greater melee prowess, decided against engaging Xu Feng in close combat. Regardless of whether she could inflict damage to the thorn ball, she would likely be injured first.

She had to rely on her fast enough ground speed to keep the big thorn ball hanging from a distance.

But she didn't dare to get too far away from the thorn ball, lest she give the human too much time to accelerate and a chance to escape into the sky... She was also wary of the human's long-range attack.

If this human had not insisted on killing Isli and landing on the ground, she would still be harassed by this person's long-range attacks.

War of attrition.

This was Luciela's plan.

She didn't believe that the human being could control the heavy metal ball to move at high speed without consuming energy. Once the other party's energy was exhausted, he would be slowly worn down by her.

What a coincidence... this was also Xu Feng's plan.

He didn't believe that the Southern Abyss could outlast him with the nuclear reactor behind him.

If it really doesn't work, wait another ten or twenty days until the Yata Mirror absorbs enough energy, and then strike once to decide the outcome.

Time is on his side!
As for support?

With support, he could end the battle faster and continue searching for the awakened ones on this continent; even without support, he could still wear Luciela down.

The battle lasted for an hour.

Ricardo spotted Galadia, who had been guiding Xu Feng to his destination. He rushed into the passage on the mountain, ready to deal with the 'eye' first.

But as soon as he entered the passage, he was blocked by Xu Feng.

The round sphere blocked the passage completely. After Ricardo was controlled by Galadia for a moment, the bloodthirsty human-shaped lion was crushed into minced meat by the steel sphere, turning into Xu Feng's side story.

At the same time, Galadia was also brought into the spiked ball by Xu Feng to serve as his radar so as not to lose the most important target.

After losing her helper, Luciela became more cautious.

She even stopped going into underground environments to ambush Xu Feng.

The battle lasted eight hours.

Luciela was a little tired. This kind of unbeatable enemy was too troublesome.

Eight hours!

Her two clones had to stay at two points in front and behind within a kilometer of the thorn ball, and they had to guard against the steel sphere weighing hundreds of tons rolling and hitting them.

During these eight hours, she cannot relax for even a second, otherwise she will be hurt.

She even had to stay with this thorn ball in the deserted northern land. After the battle just now, there were no humans or awakened people here. She couldn't even find some food to restore her demonic energy!

After being tortured for eight hours, Luciela began to attack the thorn ball in annoyance.

As a result, when the claws grabbed it, it was pierced by a huge bloody wound, and when the tentacles wrapped around it, it was chopped into pieces by the sharp sword.

After being injured several times, her irritable mood immediately disappeared and she regained her composure.

After thinking it over, Luciela decided to stop.

The Abyssal Dweller suddenly realized that ruling a continent was just that... She didn't want to stay on this broken continent at all! As far as she knew... there weren't such formidable enemies on the larger continent.

Luciela wanted to leave, but Xu Feng was following her closely in the Spiked Ball.

With Galadia's perception ability guiding the way, Luciela would find it difficult to get rid of Xu Feng even if she ran hundreds of kilometers away.

After making sure that Luciela left behind a clone with more demonic energy consumption to entangle herself, and the other body rushed towards the northeast, Xu Feng flew out of the spiked ball with Galadia.

The Eight-foot Mirror has also absorbed a lot of energy in these few hours.

Although the power of the full-strength burst is not as strong as the previous one that absorbed energy for several days, it is still considerable. It can completely kill an abyss that has consumed the demonic energy of him for eight hours!
"Hidden in the river? As expected of the Abyss, they quickly discovered that water can absorb heat, greatly reducing the attack power of the Yata Mirror."

Xu Feng discovered that the Luciela clone that had been harassing him was hiding in the river several meters deep. He chuckled softly, "If the Yata Mirror kills you with a ranged attack, it would indeed be a bit troublesome... But who says ranged weapons can only be used for long-range attacks?"

He activated the ability of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit and transformed into a large torpedo.

He controlled the torpedo to hit Luciera's clone, but this time it hit the awakened body's head hard. At this time, a pipe about three meters deep appeared at the head of the torpedo, and at the end of the pipe was a mirror engraved with a large number of mysterious runes.

A large amount of heat energy poured into Luciera's head along the pipe, and then, after Xu Feng adjusted the direction, it flowed through the head and the entire body.

After crushing the clone to ashes, Xu Feng jumped out of the water and used the ability of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit again to transform into an aircraft.

When he caught up with the Southern Abyss again, she had already run to the seaside.

Moreover, the Abyss Man's original body and clone were still moving in different directions.

After a little thought, Xu Feng chased after the weaker one.

The strength of that clone was not at the level of the Abyss Dweller at all. He could suppress that clone with just his body and the sword.

With Galadia's assistance, Xu Feng first used a saber to dismember the clone, then his right arm turned into a large grinder, grinding the broken body into meat paste, and finally burned the meat paste into ashes at a high temperature of thousands of degrees.

At this time, Luciela's real body, which had fled in different directions, was already a thousand miles away from them.

Galadia's sense of demonic energy became extremely blurry.

After Xu Feng once again caught up with the Abyss Dweller, whose demonic aura was even more powerful, and spent several hours wearing her down bit by bit with long-range attacks, he still did not receive any prompts from the Lord God, and still did not get any side plot.

——This clone of the abyss is too powerful to deal with.

As a last resort, Xu Feng could only take Galadia to search the nearby sea area for thousands of miles. After running for more than a day, he finally found some traces of the Abyss Dweller on a remote island.

After a series of battles, Luciela's demonic energy was depleted too much. She really couldn't bear the temptation of eating people. She also felt that she had escaped far enough and was almost safe, but she didn't expect Xu Feng to be so persistent.

So the battle began again.

While searching for Luciela, Xu Feng had accumulated energy for nearly a day.

Galadia was able to restrain the clone of the severely injured Abyss Creator. Soon, the Abyss Creator's body was burned to ashes, and then her clone was minced into minced meat.

It was not until this moment that the long-awaited reminder from the Lord God appeared in Xu Feng's mind.

Only then was he certain that he had truly killed this Abyss Dweller!
