Chapter 260: Beheading (Part II)
After the Ice Demon King's attack, there was a loud howl in the forest, and one after another Ice Demon emerged from the mountain forest, led by several saboteurs and throwers, and attacked Allen's assault team. Lucy immediately made a decision and ordered the team to form a defensive formation and fire under the cover of Lin Shi. The muzzle of the Flame Step/Gun erupted with dazzling tongues of fire, and the rough and hot metal jets formed a fire whip that swept away the surrounding trees.
Ordinary Ice Demons can't resist the fire of the Gunner, and all they can do is serve as cannon fodder. Lucy's Golden Rose specifically beckons the xenos of the Ice Demon, who has already loaded the fire bomb in advance. Flames are the natural nemesis of the Ice Devil, and the explosion and burning effects of the Fire Bomb discourage even the physically strong Ice Devil like the Destroyer, and as for the thrower, it is even more down.
Under the firepower of the commandos and Lucy, it was difficult for the Ice Devils to attack the position for the time being, but their numbers were endless. The commandos had limited ammunition and could not last.
Alan saw this qiē in his eyes and made up his mind to fight quickly.
The Ice Demon and Eren collided and didn't get any benefit. Knowing that the seemingly weak young man in front of him has a strong strength that does not match his body, he will no longer fight hard at the moment. Its arms were outstretched, and the lines of its source power flashed on its body. The lines shimmer as if they resonate with their surroundings, and the wind and snow intensify. A large amount of frozen gas was formed around the Ice Demon King, and in the freezing gas, ice picks were constantly formed, suspended around the Ice Demon King like a guide/bomb.
The Ice Demon King suddenly pushed his arms forward, and at that moment the ice picks fired in a row, blasting towards Alan and the members of the assault team.
"Get down!"
Alan shouted, but he didn't dodge or dodge, and the heavy knife spewed out a fire dragon, and slashed out head-on.
When the others heard Alan's warning, they all stuck to the ground, and Lucy was no exception. Icepicks flew over their heads, slamming into the rocks. Some of the hapless Ice Demons were swept away by the attack, causing the icicles to penetrate their bodies and fall far away.
Between Eren and the Ice Lord, there is a scorching moon, and the moon wheels made of flames burst and melt the oncoming ice picks, forming a large area of water vapor. In the water vapor, a black shadow flickered, and the Ice Demon King jumped on top of Allen's head, clenching his fists and smashing down. The Allen man leaned forward, and the man flashed forward as if he were gliding on the ice, passing the monster. The Ice Demon King missed, smashing into the ground in vain a cloud of ice spikes.
With a sweep of its hand, the ice spikes exploded, turning into thousands of sharp ice chips of various sizes and raining down. Allen's heavy knife was slashed, and the fire dragon swept across the knife, rolling many ice chips into the flames and burning them clean. The Ice Demon spewed two streaks of freezing air from his nostrils, stretched out his arms and hammered his chest, screamed and charged at Allen.
"Let's decide the winner in this blow!" Allen handed his left hand and held the heavy knife in his back. Grip the handle of the knife with your right hand and reach for it behind your back.
The source power rose, and in the bright orange flame, wisps of red light swam like snakes. Allen's ruby-like eyes were illuminated by the flames of light, and he let out a soft cry and slashed out with a heavy knife. Qianjun slashed seven times in his hand at different angles, and each time he slashed, the tip of the knife erupted with an orange ray. After the seven swords were slashed, the Ice Demon King's body was still charging, and the light flickered.
Seven orange rays of light were scattered across the Ice Demon King's body. But the Ice Demon King was still affected, and he still rushed over. Allen put away his knife and stood up straight, just watching the Ice Demon King approach.
The Ice Demon King raised his fist and was about to strike, but suddenly found that his body was constantly sliding out of place. Even in the field of vision, Eren is divided in two, staggered up and down, and in the middle is a huge darkness. It couldn't figure out what was going on, but it didn't know that it had already given it eight pieces. When its head cracked open in the center and fell to the ground, a sharp chirp sounded in the air, and seven shockwaves from different angles spread out, shattering all the trees and rocks within thirty meters in diameter!
This is the Seven Kills of Flame Flash, releasing seven Flame Breath Flashes in one go, making them form a multi-angle, large-scale slash. Even the Ice Demon King, a powerful high-level dangerous species, can also be easily killed.
As soon as the Ice Demon King died, the Ice Demon had no intention of fighting, especially Allen, who killed the Ice Demon King, was undoubtedly a natural enemy in the eyes of these dangerous species. They quickly retreated, leaving corpses behind, and in a few breaths they had disappeared into the forest.
The dagger picked an irregular oval-shaped piece of source jade out of the Ice Demon King's chest, and sprayed it with fire on the snowdrift on the ground, forming a small puddle of water. After Allen washed the source jade in the snow water, he threw it to Lucy: "Can this thing be made into a frost bullet?" ”
Lucy used the source power to stir up, and the source jade suddenly felt a chill, and a phantom of an ice demon hammer roaring faintly appeared in the jade. She nodded happily: "The quality of this source jade is much higher than that of Liuyang Snow Crystal, and the power of the frost bullet made will be comparable to that of a third-level bullet." ”
"I'll leave it to you." Alan laughed.
He stabbed the Ice Demon King into the chest with a demonic salute, and the source weapon immediately sucked the essence blood that was still coagulated at the end of this high-level dangerous species, and obtained some of the blood qi essence. After doing this, Alan picked a piece of dead wood lying horizontally and sat down. The soldiers next to them were disassembling the corpse of the Ice Demon, and when they were done collecting it, they could leave the Ice Demon Valley.
In the afternoon, the valley seemed quiet, and from time to time the cries of some strange beast echoed through the mountains and forests. The valley didn't seem to change, but Eren knew that the death of the Ice Demon King was like a stone thrown into the lake, and sooner or later the ripples of chaos would spread to every corner of the valley. It is foreseeable that before the new Ice Demon Lord appears, the dangerous species in this valley will have no time to pay attention to their neighbors.
When a new leader appears, the forward base will have been built, and the Rose Queen will fight again. If the Ice Demon dares to fight its idea, it will be found that the Rose Queen is not as good at talking as herself. That's one of the elite legions of the Federation, and the best soldiers may be able to raze this valley. However, at that time, Alan was only afraid that he had returned to Earth, so naturally he had nothing to do.
It was already evening when we returned to camp.
"In other words, we don't have to let the ice demons harass us anymore, which is really good news."
Beside one of the campfires in the camp, Peter made a stove out of stones with a marching pot on it. The broth is boiling in the pot, and the aroma of the meat is overflowing. He stirred the broth with a spoon, tasted it himself, and nodded, "It tastes just right, so please use it, this is the best stew made from the meat of the Ice Demon." ”
Alan took a spoonful from a bowl and tasted it, and sure enough, it tasted delicious. He said unexpectedly: "It turns out that the lieutenant will still do this." ”
"We have limited resources and many times we have to hunt on our own to fill our stomachs. After a long time, there are some natural crafts. Peter took a cigarette and handed it to Lucy, "Have a bowl too, beautiful young lady." ”
Lucy took it generously, took a sip and praised, "It's really good." ”
Some of the soldiers next to him couldn't wait anymore and drooled, "Chief, it's our turn." ”
"These gluttonous guys." Peter laughed and scolded: "Do it yourself, do you want Lao Tzu to serve you." ”
Watching the soldiers serve bowls of soup with their hands and feet, Peter shook his head. He stood up and left the campfire. Eren glanced at him, put the bowl down and followed. Peter jumped on a boulder and sat down, flicked off some of his cigarette ash and said, "We have to thank you, Alan." If it weren't for you, the brothers don't know where the birds don't. They used to laugh and laugh like this in the past, but I know that they are just trying to keep themselves alive. Because they ...... in their eyes"
Peter tapped his eyes with two fingers: "There is no light." Every year, there are soft eggs who can't stand the taste of banishment and commit suicide, and the feeling of ignoring that is treated as air will kill people......"
Alan looked at the soldiers in the camp and coughed dryly, "Maybe after this time, I can ask General Merlin to let you be stationed in the forward base." ”
"You're such a nice guy." Peter shook his head and said, "No need. In the formation of the Bianjung Army in the spread of death, even General Merlin is difficult to interfere with. And this will cause problems for you and General Merlin, and being able to do it like this, even just once, is enough for these guys to reminisce later. ”
"Speaking of which, I would like to take the liberty of asking you to do me a favor."
Alan looked at him, and Peter took a necklace from his neck, on which was a nameplate engraved with his name: "I heard that you will be returning to Earth in a short time, right?" When the time comes, can you please give this sign to my family? We probably didn't have a chance to go back. ”
"Lieutenant ......" Alan suddenly didn't know what to say.
Peter laughed, patted Alan and said, "Don't be so sad, although we are a border army, we are also in the army." Every month, the federal government pays my family's salary on time, and I can't go back. But the family can live, and that's enough. It's just that I want to send it back so I'm with them, right? ”
Alan said no more and reached for Peter's necklace: "I'll send it back." ”
Peter suddenly threw away his cigarette, stood up straight, and gave Allen a military salute sternly, "Thank you!" ”
Then he told Alan the address of his home, and Alan kept it silently in his heart. He put the necklace in his pocket, and the nameplate, which still carried body temperature, was full of Peter's helplessness and longing.
A week later, the pier was finally opened to traffic. Alan saw that the convoy had passed the trestle safely, and the hanging heart finally let go. Successfully reaching the other side of the Abyss of the Dead Star, they completed the first step in building a forward base. The rest of the work was not Eren's turn, and the engineers began to examine the terrain near the former site of the Blade Demon Outpost in order to design the layout of the base based on the terrain.
Soon, the basic layout was decided. According to General Merlin's previous request, the forward base will encompass a large area near the trestle and even the former site of the outpost. The base will consist of a series of facilities such as defensive walls, plazas, watchtowers, supply warehouses, and barracks facing the Badlands. Although the construction standards of the facilities have been greatly reduced, in order to achieve the purpose of rapid operation, according to the calculations of the engineer. It will take at least three to five months to build this relatively rudimentary forward base.
That means that Allen's second half of the year will be spent here. R1058
