Chapter 338, Third Master
Those in the trenches on the shore had clearly also noticed the unusual nature of the "ship".
It was too big, unlike any ship they had ever seen.
Especially after the apocalypse, they haven't seen a single ship.
Moreover, its dark red metal shell gleamed with an eerie luster in the morning light, making it look nothing like a normal ferry.
"Why aren't they moving?" a young man with a pointed face and monkey-like features asked in a low voice from inside the trench.
"Who cares? This is the only way to get ashore anyway. They'll either turn back or have to go through us." A similarly lean young man next to him sneered, clutching a homemade crossbow in his hand.
"I said the roadblocks should be moved; that way, we can set up an ambush. With such a huge roadblock here, even a ghost would know something's wrong!"
"Snapped!"
"So you think you're smart? If those monsters come up from here again, I'll feed you to them first!" The speaker was a bald, middle-aged man.
"Yes, yes, Third Boss is truly amazing! Without your leadership, how could we brothers have survived until now! If you ask me, you should be the leader!"
"Such a big ship, there must be good stuff on board. After we pull off this job, you'll be recognized for your great service, and we'll elect you as the leader!"
Before he could finish speaking, his eyes widened suddenly.
The "ship" moved.
But it's not about reaching the shore.
But -
Take off.
"Holy shit!!!"
Several suppressed gasps erupted from the trenches.
Not only them, but everyone hiding behind the bunkers on the shore witnessed that incredible scene.
The huge, dark red "ship" is slowly rising out of the water.
The turbid torrents cascade down from its bottom like several waterfalls.
It floated up.
No, it's not floating, it's flying.
"What the hell is this thing?!"
"Monster! It's a monster! It's moving!"
"Run!!"
The trenches instantly descended into chaos.
As Nirvana ascended into the sky, it transformed back into its original chariot form.
The bald, middle-aged man, whom the lean young man called the third leader, was somewhat dumbfounded.
"Run! Run!"
"Run into town!"
Screams, curses, and footsteps mingled together.
Those hands that were just moments ago gripping crossbow bolts and gathering energy now only wanted to grab onto something to steady themselves.
Some people tripped, some bumped into each other, and some threw down their weapons and crawled backward on their hands and feet.
The third leader's bald head gleamed in the morning light, and he stood still.
It's not that I don't want to run, it's that my legs are too weak.
He had seen the bizarre, the flying bizarre, the bizarre that could overturn trucks.
But he had never seen a flying ship.
"Third Master! Run!"
Someone tugged at him, and he staggered back a few steps, but couldn't help turning back.
Then he saw something even more unbelievable.
The "ship" slowly headed towards the town on the cliff.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks.
Isn't he just throwing his life away by going up there?
Since their target isn't themselves, let the eldest and second eldest brothers lead the charge!
Regardless of whether the outcome is good or bad, he still has room for compromise.
After all, he didn't actually attack them.
Besides, a Sequence 2 fire mage like myself should still be of some use!
For example, dealing with those fire-fearing monsters in the river is a piece of cake.
Thinking of this, he was no longer in a hurry, and even looked forward to what kind of good life he would have if he got on this ship.
Meanwhile, the others watched as the third leader lay there leisurely, seemingly contemplating something wonderful.
For a moment, I hesitated and was unsure of what to do, so I stopped running and jumping.
They had no idea what the third leader was up to.
"The third boss, the first boss, and the second boss are still in town!" the lean young man reminded him.
"So what if they're here? They don't think about me when they're eating and drinking, and I don't think about them when they're risking their lives."
"Throw away all your weapons. Those who need to cover their heads, squat down. Those who want to sleep, take a nap while your brains are still on your shoulders. As for those who want to go back to serve their country, I'll let you have that."
The bald middle-aged man had clearly realized the difference between the two, so he decisively chose to back down.
The massive Nirvana hovered above the cliffside town, its dark red armor plates casting a huge shadow in the morning light, enveloping the entire town.
A gap slowly opened at the bottom of the cargo hold, and Xu Si's figure floated down first.
Then there's Su Su, Chen Pei, Su Su again...
Tashan was much more direct; with a loud bang, it crashed directly into the center of the town like a missile.
Then, all of the team's immediate combat personnel took the stage one by one.
One after another, like divine soldiers descending from the heavens.
However, the town was quite quiet.
No one cheered, no one watched, and no one applauded.
"Nobody here?"
Tashan exclaimed in surprise, thinking that the convoy would strike at the heart of the enemy's defenses and catch them off guard!
Unexpectedly, the other party staged an empty city ruse for them.
Xu Si, suspended in mid-air, had his gaze fixed on a place that looked like an ancestral hall not far away.
Several people rushed out the moment Tashan landed.
In terms of vigilance alone, there is some, but not many.
The two men in the lead were middle-aged, one with a face full of scars and holding a machete stained with dark red dirt.
The other was lean and sinister, with incredibly long fingernails, resembling those of some kind of bird.
"Damn it... what is this thing? Where's the third brother?" The burly man with a face full of scars looked up at the huge object hanging above his head, almost dropping his machete.
"A strange object!" The sinister young man's face was full of solemnity, and liquid seemed to be dripping from the eerie green light at his fingertips.
As for Xu Si, who was floating in mid-air, the two of them completely ignored him.
Because Nirvana is simply too vast.
In comparison, Xu Si was not as outstanding.
Behind him followed three sequence extraordinary beings. Under Xu Si's star vein scan, everything in the ancestral hall was clearly visible.
At the same time, his eyes became even colder.
Even the calmest mind began to stir slightly.
Behind the half-open door of the side room of the ancestral hall were several shivering bodies huddled in a corner.
They are women, and not just one.
In the ancestral hall's kitchen, there were still scattered, even smaller, fresh bones.
As Xu Si approached, an undisguised, boundless killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"Who are you?" The burly leader, his face contorted with rage, forced his head back, his cleaver held horizontally in front of his chest, the dark red stains on the blade particularly glaring in the blood-red sun.
"Let's keep to ourselves; you go your way, and I'll go mine."
"Keep your distance?" Xu Si finally turned his gaze to his face.
That gaze was calm to the point of indifference, yet it made the leader's Adam's apple bob, and the rest of his words got stuck in his throat. He knew all too well what kind of look Xu Si had in his eyes.
"Which river's water did you drink?"
The lean and sinister second-in-command's fingertips suddenly glowed with an eerie green light, and he abruptly lowered his body, like a venomous snake slithering along the ground, lunging towards Xu Si's side.
Sequence 3 – Venomous Falcon.
The putrid toxins hidden under fingernails can kill you if you touch them.
"Fourth brother, fifth brother"
Without the slightest hesitation, the leader immediately attacked the moment the second brother launched his attack.
He knew things couldn't end well today, so he chose to strike first.
However, he didn't rush towards Xu Si, but instead rushed towards Su Su behind Xu Si.
Pick the softest persimmons; that's the first rule of survival in the apocalypse.
As for Xu Si, who can fly, he won't survive if he gets even a little bit of the second brother's poison on him.
Su Su did not retreat, but instead excitedly launched a direct attack.
She was afraid that if she was too slow, Xu Si would finish her off again.
