Chapter 457: Squad training and the opening of the hunting battle
Two days later, after careful and detailed preparations, Team 18, headed by Zhao Shoushou, officially left the confines of Ling Island and began to explore the surroundings, officially launching an operation to hunt sea beasts.
The main members of Team 18 are almost all bare island owners from various spiritual islands. Most of them were mainly casual cultivators before they participated in the battle for the spiritual islands and won the victory.
Occasionally, some exceptions are just those who come from some small families and single-handedly support the development of the entire family. Every monk is deeply aware of the difficulties of cultivation.
Therefore, although I am somewhat dissatisfied with the strict rules for redeeming points in the Lingdao Alliance, I still have a clear understanding of the cruel reality, and my reaction can be considered peaceful.
Their real focus is mainly on the extremely generous bounty list, and their respective goals are also different. The monks who came from casual cultivators mainly focus on spiritual weapons, talismans, elixirs, etc. There are families behind them who need to support them.
The monks focused on some miraculous elixirs that could help build the foundation.
In short, this simple list can cover almost everything and meet the needs of most monks, which is quite rare.
The target of Team 18 for this trip is a small group of sea monsters located 1,500 nautical miles away from the Spirit Island. The leader is a male and a female, two second-level high-grade sea monsters, and there are about a dozen second-order middle and lower-grade sea monsters.
.
There is obviously a clear difference between the ethnic group produced in the tide of sea monsters and the previous sea monster groups in the traditional sense. At this time, the sea monsters do not even have racial distinctions.
All sea beast groups are temporarily formed, with one or two powerful sea beasts as the core, and their targets are monks passing through nearby waters.
It doesn't seem to cause much harm to the entire world of cultivation, but it is carried out in a way that is equivalent to slow bloodletting, and it has been killing the living forces of the monks in an orderly manner.
Take this Spirit Island Alliance summons as an example. Many of the monks who were in the early stages of foundation building fell under the siege of such a group of sea beasts. According to statistics, the number has exceeded thirty.
You must understand that even a monk in the early stage of foundation building who can fight his way out of the cruel battle for a spiritual island and assume the throne of the owner of a second-level low-grade spiritual island is an outstanding being among the same level, and his future cultivation potential is also considerable.
Not bad.
Each of them is a rare talent in the overseas cultivation world. It is really a pity to fall under the attack of sea monsters in this way, and it is also a waste of the monk's strength that cannot be underestimated.
"The primary purpose of this operation is to preliminarily hone the team's combat effectiveness and tacit understanding. Please cooperate with each other in daily training. Low-level sea beasts have no effect on a certain Daoist brother Hou. We will be based on the training of each fellow daoist."
"Performance in battle will be assigned." When they were about to approach their destination, on an uninhabited island, Zhao Shoushou urged with a serious look on his face.
This is not because he is overly cautious, but he has to be so under the pressure of facts. After all, these monks are unruly people from all over the world. If they have ideas during the battle, something will happen during the battle.
The casualties had an unparalleled impact on the entire team.
Zhao Shoushou understood that once the battle with the core of the sea monster tide actually started in the future, the casualties of the monks would be unavoidable. However, during the trial, he definitely did not want to be the first person to inexplicably cause casualties to his team members in a trial that was not very difficult.
team leader.
"Captain, please relax, they are just a group of sea beasts of comparable strength. As long as we are careful and stay step by step, we will definitely be able to capture them."
"The sea beasts in the trial are just fish and meat brought to the door to be slaughtered, why should they care? Captain, please take a look at my methods in the battle."
"As long as the two second-level high-grade sea beasts don't come out to cause trouble, leave the rest to me."
Under the stimulation of the huge reward, all the monks' faces turned red, and they waved their arms and fists with exaggerated gestures to express their firm determination.
In fact, the cooperation in training that Zhao Shoushou has always emphasized is just a set of special Taoist formations specially compiled by the Lingdao Alliance that can temporarily concentrate the monks' power.
On weekdays, we train as a team. Once we encounter a strong enemy, the ten teams can be combined into one to fight against the third-order low-grade sea monsters. If they are led by the golden elixir stage monks, they can cross the ranks and tangle with the third-order high-grade sea monsters. In short, it can be called
A good small and efficient Taoist formation.
"Zhao is responsible for dealing with the most powerful second-level high-grade male sea beast, and the other female sea beast also asked Fellow Daoist Hou to help." This sentence was said to the seventh-level foundation-building monk of the 18th team.
"I came here to hunt sea beasts and earn points. Even if the captain doesn't tell me, I won't stand by and watch. It's my duty to do so." Hou Rongfa accepted the offer and seemed quite happy to do so.
Since the monks present reached a consensus, the group of ten people naturally did not hesitate any longer. Under the leadership of Zhao Shoushou, they marched quickly in a formation of two, four, and four in the direction of the tide of sea beasts.
The two late-stage foundation-building monks are the arrows, the three mid-stage foundation-building monks are the barrier, and the five early-stage foundation-building monks are in the middle. However, the time to drink tea has already reached the predetermined sea area.
"Moo" makes such a big noise, as the hosts of this sea area, the two colorful cows, who are famous for their bad tempers, will naturally not remain indifferent.
Its huge body turned into a ray of light and shadow, and it launched a decisive and fierce attack on the two late-stage foundation-building monks. Behind them were more than a dozen second-order, middle and lower-grade sea beasts of different types.
The only thing these sea beasts have in common among the beast tide is a trace of red that cannot be hidden in their eyes. The moment they meet the monks, they also fall into an inexplicable rage.
As the distance between the monk and the sea beast narrowed, it was like two blazing fireballs colliding, instantly entering into a heated intertwining.
The explosion of spiritual arts, the collision of spiritual weapons, the roar of monks, and the painful roars of sea beasts are almost completely merged together, making it impossible to distinguish them, forming a complex, intense and vivid picture.
In this battle of comparable level, the most intense core position should undoubtedly be the two late-stage foundation-building monks and the two second-level high-grade five-color cattle.
Under Zhao Shoushou's skillful command, a second-level high-grade flying sword flew in the air very flexibly, swaying left and right and trying to get entangled with the five-color cow. The only dissatisfaction may be the slight attack power.
Even if it hits the opponent, it can only barely break through the defense. It does not pose much of a threat to the combat effectiveness of the five-color cow.
Also under the powerful defense of the Yellow-throated Turtle Shield, the sea beast's seemingly fierce attacks were basically resolved, and it also did not have much impact on him.
After the fierce battle and test with the octopus, apart from some special species, there were very few sea beasts of the same level that threatened his personal safety.
