C247 Target Death Canyon
C247 Target Death Canyon
Wu Shuang nodded and followed the black scarfed man into the fortress. On the train, he had already seen a lot of buildings in the fortress. These tall and heavy buildings that were shining with a metallic luster were like little bunkers.
There was only one exit, and there were many openings for attacks. Wu Shuang could not help but think that once the Demon Beast breaks through the city gate, these bunkers would become the second line of defense.
The black scarfed man had long noticed Wu Shuang's gaze, but he wasn't in the mood to explain anything to him. As the assigned examiner for Elite Training Camp, he only had one mission, and that was to ensure that the exam proceeded impartially, so everything else had nothing to do with him.
After bringing Wu Shuang to an inn, the black scarfed man left after saying a few words. After a while, someone brought him a high-calorie lunch, which consisted basically of meat and sweets.
Tomorrow morning, the black scarfed man will bring him to the outskirts of Death Canyon, and the rest will depend on his luck. Regardless of whether or not he completed the mission, a week later, the black scarfed man will meet him at the same place, and he can also return in advance.
The only piece of information Wu Shuang had was a piece of map, on which were tagged the movements of the group of beasts during the past week. Perhaps it was because of the winter, the Demon Beast in the Death Canyon area were not active, which meant that most of the Demon Beast were in their lairs.
When Wu Shuang entered the canyon, perhaps he wouldn't encounter too many obstacles, but the danger level inside the canyon had multiplied. At that time, the difficulty of the canyon would be reflected in his assessment.
That night, Wu Shuang did not squeeze himself too much. After cultivating "Ten Thousand Containing Guidance" a few times, he went to bed early.
At dawn, Wu Shuang yawned and got out of bed. Suddenly, he saw the black scarfed man's figure in the room.
"Why are you in my room?" Wu Shuang frowned slightly, but still got up and dressed as usual.
"Hehe, I thought you would be so nervous that you didn't sleep for the entire night. I didn't expect that you would be so ambitious." The black scarfed man shook his head and stood up from his seat.
"What's there to worry about? What should be and shouldn't come, if you want to hide, you can't." Wu Shuang put on his clothes and put on his "Demonic Spirit Spell Armor". His body seemed to have an extra cold and evil aura.
"Ha, your armor is quite interesting. Unfortunately, the quality is too low. I'm afraid that a mere demon spirit will be able to break it." The black scarfed man glanced at Wu Shuang's black armor, and his eyes fell on the red eyeballs at the center of his heart for a while.
Wu Shuang ignored him. He sat down at the table, picked up the food on the table and started to eat. None of those from last night, probably brought by the black scarfed man this morning.
"You don't even know how to thank me?" The black scarfed man smiled bitterly and walked towards the door. "Hurry up and eat. I will wait for you at the door."
A few minutes later, Wu Shuang walked out of the inn and saw an armoured vehicle carrying heavy weapons. Including the black scarfed man, there were five Heavenly Sound Master s on the car, one of them was a youth who was not much older than Wu Shuang.
His appearance wasn't too outstanding, but his face was filled with arrogance. With just a glance at Wu Shuang, he lost interest and continued to fiddle with the rank 17 Magic Cube in his hands.
"This guy is pretty good at acting." Seeing the dazzling colors in the young man's hand, Wu Shuang couldn't help but have a headache. At this moment, the black scarfed man shouted to him, "Get in the car, let's go."
Wu Shuang sat beside the young man. The young man didn't look at him, but moved aside in disdain.
"Wu Shuang, this is Wang Lang, who is also being tested like you. You guys should get to know each other." The black scarfed man said: "Because it's a individual test, all of you will enter the Death Canyon through different entrances."
"Hmph, I'm different from him." Without waiting for Wu Shuang to speak, Wang Lang snorted and said.
Seeing that the other party's tone was not good, Wu Shuang lost his interest in knowing him, he did not have the habit of sticking his hot face in others. Someone who could be chosen to join Elite Training Camp, must have something to be proud of.
The atmosphere in the carriage instantly became depressed, but the four black scarfed men had already gotten used to it. They chatted about the recent battles, and when they heard the words "Beast Upheaval" and "Demon Commander", Wu Shuang pricked up his ears.
"Hey, Old Sun, have you noticed? Recently, martial law has been imposed on the fort again. Yesterday, when I was leaving, I was stopped by a soldier asking for my pass."
"Tsk, didn't you notice, that the Demon Beast outside are starting to get restless again. Trial attacks happen every day, and this group of Demon Beast are very good. They probably want to find out where the guards are the weakest and there will be a beast tide again."
"That's right, I heard that City K had just unleashed an F-class beast tide, with a total of four Demon Commander s. Just two of them are at the second stage, and the military encampment was destroyed in an instant."
When the four of them spoke to here, they subconsciously glanced at Wu Shuang. A large part of the reason why he was able to enter Elite Training Camp was because of his outstanding performance in the beast tide.
The young man named Wang Lang who sat on the same horse as him, although also talented, was headstrong and had an outstanding family background. He didn't even have a good impression of the examiners, so naturally no one would like him.
The armoured vehicle quickly arrived at the door. Sure enough, there were soldiers who came up to investigate. After confirming that there were no mistakes, the door opened and a cloud of dust filled the air. There was even a stench mixed in.
Wang Lang put down the Magic Cube with a proud look on his face. He used his sleeve to cover his nose and said with disdain, "Hurry, hurry, this place is too smelly."
"Hur hur, then you should be able to sit steadily." The black scarfed man and his companion exchanged a glance. The bald man in charge of driving the car suddenly stepped on the accelerator and the armoured car immediately rushed out. The Trunk Sound Talisman that was lit up on the car's body was left behind.
Caught off guard, Shen Lang's head hit the seat in front of him with a bang and he immediately started cursing.
Wu Shuang was not in the mood to laugh at his sorry state. At this moment, a large number of Demon Beast were wandering outside the car window. They were attracted by the commotion and chased after the armoured car.
"The Demon Beast has caught up." Wu Shuang frowned and said.
"No worries, just wait and see a good show." Just as the black scarred man finished his words, a terrifying rainbow light streaked across the sky and exploded in the midst of the horde of beasts. A large amount of flesh and blood vanished into thin air, leaving behind only the smell of scorched flesh and blood.
"Hahaha, you saw it, right?" The black scarfed man burst out laughing while Wu Shuang looked at the fort with lingering fear. On the towering city wall, the rainbow-colored light gradually dissipated.
"Damn it, aren't you guys paying attention when you're driving?" Wang Lang tidied up his messy clothes and stepped heavily on the Magic Cube that fell on the ground. However, no one wanted to pay attention to him.
The armoured vehicle rapidly sped through the desolate highlands. It had been bombarded by gunfire all year round, causing not a single blade of grass to be able to grow here. Not even water could remain on the dry ground.
Wu Shuang looked around. Other than Demon Beast, it was just Demon Beast. In the sky, there were also black figures following them.
