Chapter 29 Food

Using your own body as the axis, you use the centrifugal force of high-speed rotation to swing the light sword at a speed of about ten times per second. This is the blade vortex. This trick has no technical content, but it is a test of the physical limit. In just a few dozen

There were hundreds of rotations in seconds, and Xue Tong could almost feel the blood in his body being squeezed to his limbs in an instant. The severe pain twisted his nerves.

But he didn't care, because in just a few tens of seconds, hundreds of metal worms were cut down by him out of thin air. The sharpness of the colonial light knife was far beyond his imagination. Even with such frequent cutting, he could not feel any resistance.

.It was as if what he was cutting down were pieces of paper.

For a moment, silver light was like rain. Countless debris flew in all directions, hitting the cave wall with a crisp sound. Xue Tong actually blocked the invasion of the sea of ​​​​insects by himself.

However, the advantage only lasted for less than five minutes, and Xue Tong retreated in the face of the terrifying pressure from the sea of ​​insects.

This is not his intention. It's just that the blade vortex consumes too much physical strength. Even the blood pupil cannot hold on for too long. And although the impact of the metal worm can be cut down, the force of the impact cannot be completely eliminated.

Every bit of power acted on Xue Tong's body. Even with his perseverance, he felt severe pain all over his body and his bones were about to burst.

And actually speaking... the melee combat that Xuetong is good at has no advantage in front of the sea of ​​​​insects. What he is good at is melee combat. This kind of fighting method is naturally powerful when fighting a small number of enemies. But when facing small enemies,

But the efficiency of a large number of creatures is very low. Even if he can kill one with one knife, there will be more than a hundred times the number coming at the same time? No matter how fast the blood pupil is, he will still be in a hurry.

It's just that the fierce battle left Xue Tong without much energy to think about it. He only knew how to keep swinging the knife and dodging. He avoided the impact of one metal worm after another, and then cut them into two pieces with a light knife. He was very

He knows his own strengths and weaknesses. Although he has an extremely sharp light knife, his body parts have no protection. The armor only has two parts: hands and feet. Once he is hit by a worm that flies like a bullet, he will at least be broken.

A few ribs.

In such a difficult situation, Xue Tong was sweating profusely in just a few minutes. However, he gritted his teeth and persisted, trying his best to resist the pressure of the sea of ​​insects without saying a word.

Soon, Xue Tong felt that his physical strength was about to reach its limit. He felt as if he was trapped in a big net, with a feeling that it was difficult to get out. But he was not without benefits. The high-intensity battle prompted his

Unconsciously, his spirit began to combine with his body, making his sword swing faster and more precise. Although it was hard work, he began to quietly improve his combat intuition, allowing him to barely withstand the invasion of the sea of ​​​​insects.

.

"Whoops!" Another piercing scream came from the darkness. Xue Tong turned his steps without even looking, just to let a flying worm pass. He slashed it as it passed by. Just now

When he was about to turn around, there was a sudden throbbing of danger in his heart. Xue Tong could no longer care about anything else and darted to the side.

With a sound of "Bang!", the rock where he was originally fell into pieces. A ray of silver light flew out from it. Xue Tong could tell at a glance that the silver light was different. It turned out to be not a single worm, but several worms twisted around it.

Together, it turned into the shape of a sickle. Even in the dark cave, the sharp cold light of the blade could be clearly seen. Xue Tong was suddenly frightened and broke into a cold sweat. If he hadn't reacted quickly just now, he might have been seriously injured even if he didn't die.

It sounds complicated, but it actually only lasted a moment. As soon as Xue Tong escaped the terrifying mutated worm, an even stronger sense of crisis surged into his heart. Before he could react, another one suddenly flashed out of the darkness behind him.

A mutated worm. The blade of the giant scythe slashed at his neck with a scream! In an instant, Xue Tong's pupils shrank to the limit!

Bullet time!

In an almost desperate situation, Xue Tong finally used his ability. The whole world suddenly stopped. He could clearly feel the slightest chill coming from his neck. His heart felt cold.

Fast, too fast.

The timing of these two worms appearing was excellent, and their speed was much faster than the worms he had seen before. They almost killed him. Xue Tong didn't know how many such worms there were. But for the first time, he felt that he was close to death.

So close. He knew that if it weren't for bullet time, he would have become a headless corpse.

The effect of bullet time acceleration is limited. In just a few breaths, Xue Tong felt a splitting headache. He desperately recalled the feeling of dodging the bullet. He moved his neck away from the sharp blade little by little. This time he

There was no panic, so the effect was much better than last time. It actually moved more than one meter away. A feeling of dizziness followed, and the blood pupil could no longer maintain the bullet time state.

Time liberated!

Everything returned to its original state. A flash of silver light passed by, and a layer of the rock where the blood pupil was originally was immediately cut off. The two mutated "scythes" hovered in the air for a while, and then drew two arcs in the darkness.

Threads, one from the left and one from the right, are attacking Xue Tong!

The flying speed of the "Sickle" is extremely fast, and the route is weird. It is as if it is really intelligent. Their attack angle actually includes Xue Tong's dodge route. Seeing the "Sickle", it will use all its dodge routes.

One by one, Xue Tong sighed in his heart and prepared to take out the last trump card...the foot-plantation clothing.

"Bang bang!"

Suddenly, two gunshots rang out at random. Two dazzling sparks suddenly shot out in the darkness. The two special "scythes" exploded into countless pieces in the air. Xue Tong was slightly startled, but when he turned around, he saw

A familiar figure arrived.

Not far behind him, Pastor Robbie lowered the muzzle of his shotgun and made the sign of the cross on his chest with his fingers.

"The light of the Lord can illuminate everything. Lost lamb, the Lord will not let your flesh be defiled by the creatures of darkness."

Xue Tong was sweating profusely, but his expression was still calm. "Is your work done?"

"With the Lord's grace, this task is not difficult for the Lord's servants." Robbie made the sign of the cross seriously, and then hefted a bundle of tied rice dumpling-like creatures onto his shoulders.

"Leave it to me next. You are not suitable to face such a number of enemies. Protect my flanks and rear."

"Okay!" Xue Tong was not polite. He turned directly behind Robbie. He paused when his eyes fell on the starry sky beast on his shoulder. But he still hung the hanging soft rope on the waist strap.

The next moment, the two of them pressed the machine at the same time. The gears in the machine immediately rotated at high speed, taking the two of them upward like rockets. In just one second, they rushed into the silvery sea of ​​insects!

This time, Robbie was the main attacker. Compared with Xue Tong, he, who was about to become a trainee mercenary, was obviously more experienced. Facing the massive metal worms, he did not panic at all and directly raised the muzzle of his gun.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

The low gunfire of the shotgun echoed in the cave. Each shot exploded in a large silver light in front of the two people. Robbie's shooting speed was very fast. Almost one shot after another. Each shotgun attack was completed.

They would all turn around in his hand to load the bullet. He looked extremely handsome. Coupled with his handsome face and sunny temperament, I believe that if there were girls present at this moment, no matter how dangerous the environment was, they would not be able to stop them.

A scream of surprise.

However, Xue Tong paid attention not to these, but to Robbie's movements when he fired. He found that Robbie's wrist sank slightly every time he fired. This movement allowed him to reduce the recoil of shooting. Especially

When using a powerful firearm like a shotgun, his sinking was very rhythmic. It was like clear drum beats. Xue Tong was deeply impressed. Calmly, he remembered every detail of Robbie's shooting.

When it comes down, it's as detailed as a movie.

Amidst the banging gunfire, the two of them rushed through the middle of the sea of ​​​​worms like rockets. Robbie's shotgun was extremely effective against the sea of ​​​​worms. He defeated the metal worms in front of him in a wide range, while Xue Tong's sword light

They were entangled all the time. The two people cooperated with each other in a tacit understanding. It was as if they had gone through countless drills. After a while, the two of them felt that the sea of ​​​​insects was no longer a barrier between them.

"Thank you Lord for your protection." Robbie made a sign of the cross on his chest seriously. Then he showed a smile that could charm any girl. "Thank you too, my friend."

"...We are not out of danger yet." Xue Tong was silent for a while and replied. "I remember that in the information you gave me, metal worms are very vengeful creatures. They will catch up soon."

"That's why I prepared a trump card. Now it's time to use it." Robbie smiled and pointed at Xue Tong's waist.

"knew."

Xue Tong happily took out the metal decomposing potion and threw it downward. Robbie then raised his hand and fired. With a bang, the potion worth thousands of gold was exploded by him in the air. The blue potion fell like rain.

He went down. Xue Tong saw with his own eyes that the silver light surging below him stagnated slightly, followed by a blood-curdling scream.

"Next, we won't be harassed by these cute little bugs." Robbie twirled the shotgun in his hand coolly and took back his backpack.

The two of them ascended very quickly. It only took a few minutes for them to see the bright light coming from above. Robbie's expression became more and more relaxed. He was already thinking about the arrangements after the mission. Although the trainee mercenary was in the universe,

The lowest level among mercenaries, he also has the right to accept missions alone. Like the enviable mercenary predecessors in the past, he can quickly enrich himself through the high mission rewards of the space mercenaries. He can also purchase some tactical chips.

and ability potions.

What a wonderful life... Robbie no longer wants to stay on this backward planet.

But he didn't realize that the closer he got to the entrance of the cave, the worse the face of Xue Tong beside him became. His eyes were always fixed on the starry sky beast on Robbie's shoulder. His eyes were complicated.

Deep within Xue Tong's body, a voice was constantly tempting him...

Eat...

Eat it...

You will become stronger.

That is your food, its cells, molecules, every trace of flesh and blood... are all yours!

Eat it!
