Cave Refuge
Chapter 813 - 527 All Resolved_2
Although Martial Artists were strong, the evolution level of most people’s Companion Spiritual Treasures was very low, basically only advancing from a raft to a small wooden boat.
Whether it was a raft or a wooden boat, as long as they had not obtained the dark green Mysterious Core to enhance the mobility of the Companion Spiritual Treasure by adding new equipment, the usual speed of the Companion Spiritual Treasure was about five knots.
This speed, although not as slow as a tortoise crawling, was slower than someone riding a bicycle or practicing long-distance running on land.
Because it was a sea battle, vehicles were extremely important. Moreover, with the slow movement of the Companion Spiritual Treasures, if the distance between the two sides was large, a few rounds of volleys from the warships would usually make escape impossible, whether it was those basic ships built before the catastrophe, the newly designed ships of today, or someone’s Companion Spiritual Treasure.
The strongest form of saturation attack by the warships, aside from being somewhat wasteful of ammunition and costly, had no other drawbacks.
If an item was perfect, good in every aspect, then its only flaw would be its costliness.
Just like the jokes online, being expensive is not a flaw, but rather something one should look for reasons within oneself.
So now there arose an awkward situation, during long-range combat, battleships possessed overwhelming destructive power.
However, unlike before the catastrophe, when battleships would engage in close combat, what was essentially tested was the combat power of the Martial Artists on board.
Therefore, the more Major Powers there were, the more likely they were to station powerful individuals on their warships, fearing someone might accidentally have their ship seized by other Martial Artists.
The speedboats quickly surpassed and started to circle around Dong Tianyu’s Companion Spiritual Treasure, trying to force him to stop moving forward.
In the face of this situation, Dong Tianyu did not pay too much attention, although choosing jade material indeed made it less hard than steel.
But it was only in comparison to ships of the same evolutionary level, ordinary Martial Artists, without the level of Path Entry Realm, would consider it decent if they could leave marks on Dong Tianyu’s Companion Spiritual Treasure.
The speedboats circling Dong Tianyu saw that he continued to move forward regardless and, frustrated, they took out their firearms and aimed point-blank shots at the cockpit where Dong Tianyu was located.
The result of the shooting was as they had guessed, it did not cause any damage to Dong Tianyu’s Companion Spiritual Treasure and did not even chip the paint.
Although they were prepared, seeing this result still involuntarily made them take a sharp breath.
Their seemingly fierce actions actually caused no loss to Dong Tianyu, instead they allowed him to further understand the bullet resistance of his Companion Spiritual Treasure.
Although it didn’t cause any damage, Dong Tianyu, quite uncharacteristically, cooperated by reducing his speed.
Seeing Dong Tianyu slowing down, the expressions on the faces of the Martial Artists on the speedboats showed great smugness, and they intensified their gunfire against Dong Tianyu’s Companion Spiritual Treasure.
Seeing this situation, to gather more test subjects, Dong Tianyu also cooperated by further reducing his speed, waiting for the arrival of the opposing reinforcements.
Perhaps the Martial Artists on the speedboats were responsible only for intercepting, and seeing that Dong Tianyu had completely stopped moving forward, they didn’t approach either.
Perhaps feeling that Dong Tianyu had become meat on their chopping board, those on the speedboats who had united to intercept Dong Tianyu unconsciously distanced themselves from others.
After all, they saw Dong Tianyu as a sitting duck by now, so the biggest threat to them was whether their own fleet could reach Dong Tianyu’s location before others.
After about an hour, a fleet entered the range covered by Dong Tianyu’s Divine Sense.
Looking at the huge fleet composed of four warships, Dong Tianyu initially wanted to scoff, but then unexpectedly saw others appearing from another side. Only at this moment did Dong Tianyu confirm that he would now be caught in a pincer attack.
Despite the numerous people on the opposing ship, Dong Tianyu’s face revealed an expression that the real show was about to start.
The battleship didn’t get too close to this side, as the missiles on the battleship had a minimum range. If the target they attacked was below this range, they might also suffer some damage.
Moreover, to prevent Dong Tianyu from making a desperate move and jumping onto their battleship to perish together, they did not arrange for anyone else to accompany the Experts, except for the negotiator.
Before the negotiator even arrived, Dong Tianyu instantly stored the Companion Spiritual Treasure in his Sea of Consciousness, and then he directly charged toward the speedboats docked around them using Sword Control.
The Martial Artists who were on the speedboats keeping an eye on Dong Tianyu, upon seeing his sudden abnormal action, instantly realized that they had probably been tricked.
Dong Tianyu’s series of actions were definitely an act of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, and now that the fish had bitten the hook, Dong Tianyu stopped pretending.
Before Dong Tianyu could get close to them using Sword Flight, the Martial Artists on the speedboats, as if frightened by Dong Tianyu’s sudden actions, did not move and stayed in place.
Seeing this, Dong Tianyu did not hesitate, directly storing the people along with the speedboats into the Cave.
The people were thrown into the Realm of the Undead within the Cave, and the items were sent into the Storage Space.
The reason why the Martial Artists on the speedboats appeared frightened and frozen when Dong Tianyu approached was not actually due to being scared by his actions.
Instead, as Dong Tianyu approached using Sword Flight, he controlled the Flying Needles coated with paralyzing Potion to launch a sneak attack ahead of him.
Since Dong Tianyu using Sword Flight had drawn all attention to himself, he could control the Flying Needles with the Art of Controlling Objects and successfully strike the Martial Artists’ bodies without anyone noticing.
The Martial Artists who had stayed on the other side to watch Dong Tianyu, upon seeing him quickly defeat their colleagues and watching their peers disappear without resistance, also felt somewhat panicked at this moment.
Since the battleship from their Major Powers had already reached the optimal attack distance, their job was done, and it was now the best time to leave.
However, they had not anticipated that before they could even turn around to leave, Dong Tianyu had already reached their side.
As the old saying goes, it’s not about the quantity of the moves but their effectiveness.
So the strategy in the Cave remained the same, use Sword Control to draw the opponent’s attention, then launch a sneak attack with barely visible needles smeared with Toxin.
After clearing both observers, Dong Tianyu noticed the negotiator slowly trying to leave.
Since he had already come over, why leave now? Dong Tianyu quickly knocked him out and similarly sent him to the Realm of the Undead.
At that moment, although the Realm of the Undead was still filled with a deathly stillness, as the living gathered together, the Undead Creatures originally sleeping in the soil sensed many living beings had arrived in their realm.
The previously calm Realm of the Undead suddenly came to life.
Just as the Undead Creatures in the Cave were ready to emerge from the soil to enjoy a feast, a huge transportation channel appeared once again above the Realm of the Undead, and like dumplings, many people were dropped from the sky.
Meanwhile, Dong Tianyu, now outside, had nonchalantly annihilated the fleet outside. Dong Tianyu did not care whether they were severely injured or dead; finding bodies, he directly threw them into the Realm of the Undead, thus negating the need to worry about their medical treatment or the possibility of some pretending to be dead.
Looking at the empty horizon on the sea surface, Dong Tianyu hadn’t anticipated that he could earn so much in one fell swoop.
