Chapter 771 Source of Fear - Three Emperors Squad Fight Giants
"Do you think this thing could also be a Divine Weapon?"
In the distant East, in Shennongjia, a place filled with bizarre and mysterious colors, a large group of S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents were setting up Infrastructure around a Meteor Crater that had just been formed and still retained residual heat.
And the one who raised the question above was A-Cheng from the Three Emperors Squad, who had been transferred here by Director Zheng Xian of the Divine Spear Bureau.
The Divine Spear Bureau was already one of the Organizations in the World with the most Superhuman individuals, but facing the upcoming great war, they still seemed a bit stretched in terms of personnel. Therefore, Zheng Xian sent the Three Emperors Squad, which had the fewest members but considerable Combat Power, to guard the Sky Hammer.
"That's the job of the Research Staff," Ji Shuangshuang said, checking her Equipment. "Our Mission is to be responsible for intercepting any Superhuman who might come. Keep your Eyes peeled and don't let those who are good at Sneak Attack succeed."
"I know, I know," A-Cheng said helplessly. "I just wanted to lighten the mood a bit. After all, we can't just sit here doing nothing, right, Boss?"
The three members of their Team were currently standing in one Direction each, forming a triangular formation with the Sky Hammer in the Center. So, they had been communicating using Communicators.
"I don't think that Hammer is anything good," Lin Lie said, holding the Fuxi Sword in his Hand. "The Fuxi Sword has been reminding me since just now not to approach that Thing."
Without Lin Lie saying so, the other two also knew, because they were also holders of Divine Weapons. The moment they saw that Hammer, their Weapons also warned them.
But what was surprising was that the Hammer had been quiet from beginning to end. Some Experiment Staff had already approached the Hammer before they arrived, but nothing had happened.
However, the three were still willing to believe the Warning from their Divine Weapons. After all, Divine Weapons were the foundation of their being and also Partners in combat. They had no Reason not to believe them.
Lin Lie was about to speak again when he heard the Alarm Sound from his Communicator. This indicated that the Camp in the Center was under Attack. The three immediately turned around to return to defend.
To have a better Field of Vision, the three chose guard Positions that were a certain Distance away from the Camp. However, with the three's Speed of returning to defend, this Distance could be covered in just a minute or two.
The fastest among the three was A-Cheng. With the help of the Shennong Whip, he could Swing between the Trees. So, he was also the fastest to return. As soon as he returned to the Camp, he saw a three-meter-tall Giant.
Blue and white Skin, Viking-style Armor, according to the Divine Spear Bureau's records, this should be an otherworldly Creature called a Frost Giant.
Originally, A-Cheng didn't know about these Things, but in the past few days, he and Lin Lie had been pulled by Ji Shuangshuang to cram some Knowledge about other Worlds. That's why he could recognize it at a glance.
After all, Mr. Yang Le had already told them about the Enemies they might encounter. At this point, if they were still ignorant, it would be too stupid.
The Frost Giant in front of him was stained with Bloodstains, especially the Axe in his Hand, which was drenched in Fresh Blood. And under the Giant lay a S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent.
No need to ask. Everything before his Eyes had already told A-Cheng the Answer. In just this instant, A-Cheng's Anger had already surged to the Crown of his Head.
Without Nonsense, A-Cheng raised his Right Hand, and the Divine Weapon Shennong Whip moved with his Heart. Flame-like Energy immediately enveloped the entire Whip. The next Second, like a dragon, it tore towards the Frost Giant.
The Frost Giant heard the Sound of Air Being Torn, like a dragon's roar, and immediately turned his Head, but he was ultimately a step too slow. With a "smack" sound, his Head split open in response, and white and blue Liquid flowed out together.
The next Second, the burning Energy ignited the Frost Giant's Body. In just a few Seconds, the Giant was burned to nothing.
After dealing with the Enemy, A-Cheng wanted to step forward to check who the deceased was, so he could inform the Support Staff responsible for collecting bodies. But suddenly, alarm bells rang in his Heart, so he stopped his Footsteps. Immediately after, an Ice Spear was inserted in front of him.
A-Cheng's Forehead immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he hadn't slacked off in his usual training, which gave him an agility that Ordinary person didn't have. Otherwise, this Spear would have definitely pierced him through.
Evading one fatal Attack did not allow A-Cheng to relax his vigilance. He flung the Shennong Whip backward, wrapped it around the Tree Trunk behind him, and pulled himself backward. Sure enough, the next Second, more Ice Spears stabbed into the Position where he had originally stood.
A-Cheng looked up at the Sky. Densely packed Ice Arrows were coming at him under the effect of parabolic motion. This scene was truly terrifying. Even he, who had faced many Demons, couldn't help but tremble in his Heart.
Suddenly, a blue ball of light stood above his Crown. The ball of light rapidly condensed into an Entity, turning into a blue, translucent Arm, like a Shield, blocking all the Ice Arrows.
"Ding ding ding ding!"
"Phew!" A-Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. He gave Ji Shuangshuang, who had just arrived beside him, a Thumb up. "Good save, Boss. If you had been a step late, I would have become a Hedgehog."
"What's the Situation? Are you injured?" Ji Shuangshuang skipped the Pleasantries and directly asked about the Situation, but she did get to the point.
"I don't know," A-Cheng said with a wry smile. "I also just arrived. As soon as I got here, I saw a Frost Giant kill our Agent. Then I killed that Giant. After that, you know the rest."
Ji Shuangshuang's Face was a bit unsightly. She wasn't blaming A-Cheng. She had noticed a small Aspect that A-Cheng hadn't noticed.
From just now, no Sound had been heard from the Camp. And the Direction from which the Ice Arrows were just shot was precisely the Direction of their Camp. This only represented one possibility: there was likely no one alive left in the Camp.
While the two were talking, the Nuwa Gauntlet had already blocked all the Ice Arrows. And at this moment, several Frost Giants emerged from the Woods. Looking at their Equipment, one could tell that those Ice Arrows were shot by them.
"I think we don't need to hold back on this Mission, right, Boss?" A-Cheng waved his Whip and lashed it on the Ground, causing Dust to fly up.
"Just be careful," Ji Shuangshuang said, adopting a stance. The pair of Arms made of Energy behind her also adopted the same stance.
"Did you hear that, Little Lin?" A-Cheng said into the Communicator. "This time, you can go on a killing spree."
The next Second, a streak of emerald Streaming Light cut into the Crowd of Frost Giants from the side. The Giants' astonished Expressions had not yet formed before they had already gone to another World.
For a Time, blue and white Liquid intertwined and appeared. One after another, Severed Arm and severed limbs flew into the Sky. Some were Hands, some were Feet, and some were Heads.
By the time Blood had stained the Land, Sword God Lin Lie had already sheathed his Sword. Looking again at the Enemies, none remained alive.
