Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day-Chapter 679 - 496: Kunlun and the Spoils of War from 9 Days Were Robbed! _3
"Understood."
Old Zhu and his companion solemnly nodded and quickly followed.
Tang Qianzang stayed at the entrance to prevent the cloaked figure, who claimed to be a member of Creation, from escaping through the Teleportation Gate.
Glancing around, Tang Qianzang suddenly frowned, his instincts telling him something was amiss.
"Hmph..."
The eyes hidden under the hood of the cloaked figure showed a hint of impatience; behind him, Old Sun and his companion were incredibly fast and not far behind him.
If he continued to tangle with these weakened warriors, he would soon be caught up by them.
He needed to speed up.
His eyes narrowed slightly as he turned his hand, revealing two metallic orbs resting in his palm.
"Smoke Escape!"
Bang!
Bang! 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Two clouds of thick smoke exploded from the ground, quickly shrouding the cloaked player's figure.
"Little trick!"
Old Sun arrived stepping on clouds, sneering disdainfully, his mouth forming a round shape as he took a deep breath and then blew forcefully!
Whoosh~
A gust of wind rose, and the smoke was instantly blown away.
However, the cloaked player was nowhere to be seen.
Old Ma arrived, taken aback by the scene: "Damn, Boss!"
At his reminder, Old Sun looked towards the Boss's corpse and saw it emitting a faint glow.
That was the faint light reaction that only appeared during decomposition!
"Damn it! Stop him!" Old Sun was furious. That person dared to decompose the Boss's corpse right under the eyes of so many people?
He hadn't put their Journey to the West Team and thousands of allied legion members in his eyes at all.
To them, it was a great insult!
"I'll do it!"
From a distance, Old Zhu bent his knees, and his pant legs suddenly burst open, revealing thick legs covered in black hair, with his legs swelling to twice the size of his upper body.
"Leap of Faith!"
Wherever my eyes can reach, I can go!
Boom!
The sandy ground caved in, as if quicksand were pressed down by a drill, pushing Old Zhu skyward with great reactive force, heading straight for where the Boss lay.
In mid-air, he resembled a cannonball.
Old Zhu adjusted his posture, his legs extended forward, a thread of black light attached to them.
"Secret Skill: Meteor Burst Celestial Star!"
Boom~
As the genetic ability activated, intense black flames burst forth, giving onlookers the illusion of a celestial meteor flying in, ripping through the atmosphere like a star-streak.
Old Zhu was about to reach the Boss's location.
The glowing corpse suddenly disintegrated, leaving nothing but worthless fragments on the ground.
A head raised its eyes to Old Zhu, showing a playful look: "Sayonara!"
With a teasing tone, the person dove into the sand like a fish and disappeared.
"Don't go!"
Old Zhu was enraged, with legs burning with black flames deeply embedded in the spot of the person's dive, causing a cloud of yellow sand to explode ten meters high, forming a conical sand screen.
Without waiting for the sands to settle, Old Zhu warily surveyed the surroundings, shouting, "Old Sha, hurry up!"
"Coming!"
His response came not from Old Sha but Old Ma.
Behind him, Old Ma carried Old Sha and quickly arrived, bending over to throw Old Sha forward.
"Old Sha, turn everything within a hundred meters into concrete!"
Old Zhu's eyes were red: "I'm gonna suffocate that bastard to death!"
"I think you're trying to work me to death, bastard."
Old Sha complained, but his hands were busy, spreading his palms towards the sandy ground to activate his genetic ability.
"Earth Element - Texture Transformation!"
Gray light flickered as the sand below his palms quickly turned into a concrete surface, converting to another substance from its core!
Despite toiling for a while, Old Sha transformed several tens of meters of the sandy surface and ten meters deep beneath into concrete, yet still couldn't find the guy who stole their loot.
In doing so, he had to devour at least twenty fish that restored Genetic Force.
"He got away." Old Sha stopped the transformation, his face grim.
Even with ample supplies, he could turn the entire sandy sea into concrete.
But that would take time measured in years, not a worthwhile effort.
"Damn it!"
Old Sun and others had arrived here, and upon hearing Old Sha's words, were extremely upset.
The two legions had put in over ten minutes of effort, with nearly all legion members dying once, only for their loot to be snatched away by some odd man?
How could they accept this?
"Damn! Damn! Goddamn it!"
The more Old Sun thought about it, the angrier he got. He took out an alloy long staff and waved it around, creating a hundred staff shadows that pitted the surrounding ground, causing rubble to fly.
The shattered concrete fragments turned back into yellow sand during their flight, landing on the ground or on the sand surface with a slight 'sizzle'.
"Enough, enough, we lost the game by one move, got our efforts hijacked, and now raging uselessly, what are we doing?"
Old Sha halted Old Sun's futile actions, calmly analyzing, "That person definitely hasn't gotten far, and with Old Tang guarding the entrance, as long as we spread our people around, that person will eventually have to show themselves when their Original Force runs dry!"
"Spread people around? That's easy for you to say!"
Old Sun was the most hotheaded of them, impatiently saying, "Do you know how vast the Desert Oasis is? Do you know how much Genetic Force that person consumes per second? Do you know what their total Original Force is? Do you know if they have a means to recover? Do you know how fast they can travel through the sand?"
"We don't have a single piece of data, what kind of plan are we making here?"
"Damn it!"
"Damn it!"
"Damn it!"
Old Sun irritably raised his alloy long staff again, wanting to smash things, but Old Zhu held him down.
"You do have a point, but Old Sha's suggestion is better than us doing nothing, right?"
"Okay! You all stay here, and when that kid shows up, let me know. I'm gonna crush him bit by bit!" Old Sun stowed the long staff and stomped off.
Old Ma watched his departing back, looking complicated: "Ever since we finished that dungeon two days ago, Old Sun's temper has been getting worse."
"Hmm." Old Sha pondered and then said, "I remember Kunlun mentioned recently discovering a special merchant where mood-controlling items can be bought?"
"I suspect Old Sun's changes are related, we should ask Major Liu about it."
...
"Sayōnara~ Sayōnara~"
The cloaked figure moved through the depths of the sandy sea, his eyes filled with lingering fear.
"The strength of the Journey to the West Team is indeed formidable; the pressure is too overwhelming. I won't take this risk again, almost lost my life here!"
