Chapter 722: Wits and Courage Against Air
Lin Lie rarely saw such a big reaction from the Fuxi Sword, which meant that something huge and evil was definitely hidden around them.
Lin Lie swallowed his saliva. The enemy they were about to face would definitely be much stronger than any enemy they had encountered before. They might even die here if they were not careful.
All Three Emperors' Divine Artifacts were Spirit Treasure and had their own extraordinary qualities. Therefore, without Lin Lie reminding them, Ji Shuangshuang and A-Cheng understood that the upcoming battle would definitely not be comparable to the small skirmishes they had just experienced.
However, unlike the three who were on high alert, the invisible and intangible ‘enemy’ they were wary of was somewhat at a loss.
This ‘enemy’ was naturally Yang Le. He relied on a Transmorpher to infiltrate the Divine Spear Bureau's Network and learned that the Three Emperors Squad, headed by Ji Shuangshuang, was going to the Greater Khingan Mountains to deal with a group of ‘Wild Men’.
Saying they were Wild Men was actually a misnomer for Demons. It was just that many travelers had witnessed these Monsters from afar while playing in the Greater Khingan Mountains. Due to the distance and ancient legends, they subconsciously mistook the Demons for Wild Men.
After the advance Troops investigated and revealed the truth about the Wild Men, the Divine Spear Bureau dispatched the Three Emperors Squad to eliminate these Monsters.
Yang Le happened to be interested in the Three Emperors' Divine Artifacts. In addition, he felt that contacting people first was more reasonable than contacting an Organization directly. So, he came to the Greater Khingan Mountains one step ahead, intending to first see what these Demons were and then make contact with the Three Emperors Squad.
In order to observe silently, Yang Le specifically transformed into Ghostfreak and hid in the Air. Because he had arrived earlier, Yang Le had enough Time to observe and Research these so-called Demons.
As expected, these Demons were actually minions of some powerful existence. They were originally possibly anything until they received the Power of a powerful being, and then they transformed into these terrifying Monsters.
To possess this Ability, the person who bestowed the Power must himself possess great Strength. According to Yang Le's speculation, the one behind these Demons was very likely Chiyou (Ancient Demon God), Marvel's newly advanced Dimensional Demon God.
Saying "newly advanced" was actually not that new anymore for Chiyou, but compared to those Dimensional Demon Gods with decades or even centuries of history, Chiyou was considered one of Marvel's emerging BOSSes.
Chiyou was not only a new Character, but his Strength was also not to be underestimated. The birth of this Character coincided with the honeymoon period between Marvel and the Domestic market. To seize the huge Domestic market, Marvel launched a series of Characters with Chinese elements.
The Three Emperors Squad was one of them, and their main Enemy was Chiyou. Therefore, Chiyou gained considerable prestige as soon as he made his Entrance.
According to Knull, the God of Symbiotes, Chiyou was a powerful Demon God comparable to Cyttorak, Shuma-Gorath, and Khonshu, not something that ordinary low-level Demons could compare to.
With Knull's words, we can have a clearer concept of Chiyou's Strength. After all, although Chiyou himself has never taken action, we have obtained Characters that can be compared to him, and these Characters have Records of taking action.
Among them, the most noteworthy is Cyttorak. As one of the strongest Superhumans on Earth, the source of Juggernaut's Power, Cyttorak's own Strength is obvious to all.
Cyttorak could banish Colossus and his sister, who possessed the Phoenix Force, with just a thought. To obtain Doctor Strange's Soul, he could simultaneously wage war against all Demon Gods, and he did not even take the powerful Planet Devourer seriously.
Even Juggernaut, who obtained Cyttorak's Power, could defeat Nightmare, who obtained the Eternity Force. Although it might be mostly due to the problem of the user, one must also admit Cyttorak's Strength.
There is even a saying that Cyttorak should be the strongest among the Dimensional Demon Gods. Chiyou being comparable to him already shows his powerful Strength.
As the nemesis of the Demon God Chiyou, the users of the Three Emperors' Divine Artifacts naturally also needed to possess Power that could rival the opponent. The Fuxi Sword, Nuwa Gauntlets, and Shennong Whip, each one was a powerful Divine Weapon.
Among them, the most noteworthy was the Fuxi Sword. This Sword was a treasure that everyone coveted. Every time it appeared, someone would covet it. Even Knull was extremely eager for it, claiming that it possessed the Power to destroy the World and wanted to seize it for his own use.
It has to be said, is this not worthy of being a work from the honeymoon period? The Setting is filled in boldly.
Because Chinese Artists were involved in Setting these Characters, the Three Divine Artifacts have many Chinese-style Settings, and Spiritual Intelligence is one of them.
The Fuxi Sword has a certain reaction to Evil Energy, and Yang Le's Transformation into Ghostfreak is indeed a relatively dark Race. It is normal for the Fuxi Sword to react to Yang Le now.
But this was a bit awkward. If Yang Le were to make his Entrance now, he would definitely be regarded as a Villain on the spot. But also, with Ghostfreak's appearance, who would believe you if you said you were a Hero?
After thinking for a while, Yang Le decided to retreat first. At least he couldn't contact these people in Ghostfreak's form. Otherwise, he would really be unable to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River. Yang Le still wanted to be friendly when contacting his own people.
However, he definitely couldn't contact them in his Ordinary Person form either, as that would be too passive. But he also couldn't transform into those strange-looking Aliens who were not easily liked.
Thinking about it this way, the Choice was basically fixed.
…
The Three Emperors Squad, who were waiting in battle formation, waited for a long time, but no attacker appeared. A-Cheng, whose temper was the worst among them, naturally couldn't help it.
"Are we just going to keep waiting here?"
Lin Lie was also a little impatient, but they were still Newbies on this path. Many times, they could not make correct Judgments, so he was waiting for Ji Shuangshuang's Order as the Captain.
Ji Shuangshuang frowned slightly. She had already noticed just now that her Nuwa Gauntlets had stopped reacting, which meant that the Demon should have retreated. However, this News, which sounded like good news, did not make her happy.
This meant that the Thing spying on them was very likely a Guy with some intelligence. No matter what that Thing was, something with a Brain was definitely more difficult to deal with than something without a Brain, and the opponent also possessed a hidden Ability that was not easy to detect.
If it weren't for the Three Divine Artifacts, they might not have discovered the Enemy until they were attacked.
A Guy with a Brain, good at hiding himself, an assassin—these adjectives combined could form a very terrifying Thing.
But A-Cheng was right, they couldn't keep wasting Time here. The primitive Jungle of the Greater Khingan Mountains, far from human habitation, was not suitable for them. Here, they were very likely to capsize in the gutter.
"Withdraw." Ji Shuangshuang decisively issued an Order. "First, find a Method to withdraw from this Woods. We will advance in the formation we practiced during training. Lin Lie at the front, A-Cheng at the rear, always on Alert for the surroundings, we will rush out of here quickly."
