Chapter 1078
The Deal Between Team 2
"This delay is too long, it's been four or five seconds already."
It looks like it's the unlimited ammo type, but even so, it's at most a double C-rank side quest item, not as good as this combat suit.
After Amy finished speaking, Zhan Lan asked a follow-up question.
"This gun is probably just one of their previous weapons. The real focus is on that transparent weapon, which must be something special."
As Zhan Lan spoke, she looked at the two Chu Xuans for their opinions.
The reason Zhan Lan described it that way is because neither her telekinesis nor her mental power could detect the existence or even the shape of this weapon.
If Li Xiao hadn't acted as bait, he and Zheng Zha might not have been able to discover the problem in time when facing this unarmed opponent.
Neither of Chu Xuan spoke; instead, Li Xiao spoke directly:
"I know that the Sword of Victory and Oath is a legendary magic weapon of the double A-grade. Of course, many people in the real world also call it the Sword in the Stone."
"Because in some storylines, this is a sword pulled from a stone."
"All I remember is that it's a two-handed greatsword and it needs to be bound to a master; that's all I can recall."
"But no matter what, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call something of this level a divine artifact."
Li Xiao shrugged as he spoke.
However, at this moment, the demon Zheng Zha suddenly spoke.
"No matter how strong their armor and weapons are, they cannot hide their weakness. They are just wearing the guise of the Zerg army."
"Once they get close, even without us, your Central Continent Team alone can handle those two seemingly strong but actually weak breeders!"
They're just two pieces of trash!
Zheng Zha made no attempt to hide the disdain on his face.
After all, Rost was far too weak in some respects.
A reincarnator who has only started the second stage of the gene lock, and even that second stage is the kind that has been watered down.
Normally, Zheng Zha wouldn't even bother to glance at him, and his teammates would be scrambling to take his life.
If Francis and Garuda knew Zheng Zha's thoughts at this moment, they would definitely shake their heads.
Because they don't have the captain's ability to ignore defensive items.
If the other party really brings out a bunch of all sorts of props.
Let alone A-level side quests, they couldn't handle even a bunch of C-level side quests.
Then we'll unleash a barrage of attacks, and we might even take them all down with us.
Keep in mind that they don't have many resurrection items.
This is practically a cheat code!
It can be said that simply judging the strength or weakness of these two breeders is no longer appropriate.
The demon Chu Xuan continued, his voice as calm as ever:
"It is currently known that the two members of the Senzhou team are skilled in melee combat and ranged attacks respectively. The four magical arrows that appeared earlier indicate that the ranged attack should be an enhanced bow and arrow type."
"In addition to the shooting range, I suspect that this ranged archer is also a psychic, and like us, has a way to bypass the main god's restrictions on psychic power."
"Otherwise, even with a passive ability that guarantees a hit, it would be impossible to find the target so accurately under such an attack beyond visual range."
Zhan Lan nodded in agreement: "I thought of that too."
"The All-Seeing Eye is a product of alchemy, used to enhance vision and thus bypass the restrictions imposed by the main god on mental power."
"Their Senzhou team..."
Zhan Lan didn't continue, she just shook her head.
Even with their two teams, it would be difficult to defeat this breeder who had no shortage of money for side quests and reward points and was also ruthless.
"What does it mean to fire simultaneously from four directions?"
"It's impossible for the Morizu team to have four ranged attackers, right?"
"Or perhaps it's the ability to create four clones?"
Seeing Amy's puzzled expression, Zhan Lan shook her head, indicating that she didn't know what was going on either.
Li Xiao replied, "Why is it impossible? In my opinion, it should be some kind of clone or skill."
After all, Rost's weapon was the sword in the stone, so this only ranged archer couldn't be too bad either.
"So it's highly likely that it's a skill that comes with a longbow from some kind of magical legend."
"Of course, it could also be like what you said, that it split into four."
Li Xiao's guess was accepted by most people.
After all, while double A-grade items in the God's Space are precious, there are quite a few types and choices available.
It was at this moment that Zhan Lan looked around and suddenly spoke:
"Since our two teams have chosen to cooperate, I think we should be able to make some mutually beneficial deals, as is customary."
Li Xiao and the others in the Zhongzhou team quickly exchanged glances, then nodded: "We agree."
Zhan Lan seemed to have been prepared and smiled, "Then I'll say it first, we want that restorative formation."
At this moment, the members of the Demon Team even looked to one side, where Cheng Xiao and Zhu Wen had set up the formation for the Demon Team.
While the Philosopher's Stone is powerful, it can only restore the physical body; it has no effect on an individual's mental will or internal energy.
During this time, the members of the Demon Team had experienced firsthand that being able to restore mental strength and energy tenfold using only energy stones was an extremely powerful support ability.
Just when the group thought the Central Continent team would ask for an exorbitant price.
Chu Xuan of the Zhongzhou team surprisingly agreed immediately.
Chu Xuan looked at the Demon Team and stated his conditions: "In exchange, we need some vampire energy."
Zhan Lan was stunned when she heard the details of the deal.
Because this was something she hadn't expected.
After all, there is only one person in the entire Demon Team who possesses vampire energy, and that is Zheng Zha.
Zhan Lan looked at her Chu Xuan, but he didn't react at all.
Zheng Zha stared at Chu Xuan opposite him, and after a moment of silence, he nodded almost imperceptibly.
Chu Xuan raised his hand and took out dozens of mithril rings from his spatial ring.
After handing the ring to Zheng Zha, he decisively began to infuse it with vampire energy.
With his skill and masterful technique, he returned the ten mithril rings to Chu Xuan in no time.
Then he sat directly in the recovery formation and began to recover.
Zhongzhou Chuxuan then handed Zhan Lan an A4 sheet filled with writing.
After the first round of transactions concluded, Demon Chu Xuan finally spoke:
"I'd like to know what happened to you guys in the last Transformers movie?"
No one from the Central Continent team asked why Demon Chu Xuan knew their last horror movie was Transformers.
Instead, I was wondering why this person wanted to know this.
Chu Xuan of the Zhongzhou team seemed to understand what the other party meant and said directly:
"It was Megatron who killed Zheng Zha after using the AllSpark Cube."
"At this point, Megatron's strength is equivalent to that of someone who has unlocked the fourth-order gene lock and possesses unlimited energy!"
Li Xiao added from the side:
"After we entered Transformers, we discovered that the main god had changed the original storyline and even made a complete mess of it."
The entire Earth is about to be conquered by the Decepticons, who possess the AllSpark.
"They intend to exterminate all life and transform Earth into a new Cybertronian planet."
"It also features a large number of villainous characters from the Transformers series, as well as a massive new-generation robot army that rivals the size of these insectoid creatures."
"Fortunately, there were no plot characters or mental limitations back then."
"Only in this way can we keep maneuvering."
Zhan Lan nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "And then?"
"Even if Zheng Zha died, how did he die the second time?"
Li Xiao replied with a wry smile, "It's a case of qi deviation."
"After being resurrected, Zheng Zha did indeed kill Megatron at the last moment, completing an A-level side quest, and successfully stole the AllSpark Cube."
At this point, Zheng Zha had already unlocked the fourth-order gene lock... well, I guess he had, but I'm not sure.
But it was at this crucial moment that Zheng Zha was affected by the AllSpark Cube.
"In the end, the AllSpark Cube and Zheng Zha both collapsed!"
"Our main mission is to destroy the AllSpark Cube or hold it for three hours. If we do that, we can consider the main mission complete, and the rest of us will return to the God Space."
After Li Xiao finished speaking, everyone in the Zhongzhou team showed expressions of sighs and reminiscence.
This confirmed the truth of what the Demons said.
After all, one person can act, and two people can cooperate, but a team can't all be movie stars.
Moreover, Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan of the Zhongzhou team are indeed dead.
After hearing Li Xiao's words, the members of the Demon Team fell silent.
Even the demon Zheng Zha couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion, after all, that was another version of himself.
(Has it reached the fourth stage of the genetic lock? That's so impressive!)
On the other side.
"The AllSpark Cube represents infinite energy, so is it something like the Philosopher's Stone?"
Zhan Lan shook her head as she looked at Amy, who was muttering to herself.
I think they shouldn't be the same...
The Philosopher's Stone is capable of evolving all things, while the AllSpark they speak of can transform into an army of robots, directly altering the structure of life...
This level of capability is tantamount to creating life out of thin air, and it suggests truly infinite energy.
Zhan Lan confirmed it again.
"So, you didn't obtain the Fire Source Cube... But it's just a plot item, how could the God of War let a reincarnation team obtain it?"
"That's why your main quest includes destroying the AllSpark Cube, and Zheng Zha completed this mission with his own life!"
"This suits him so well..."
Zhan Lan sighed with a strange expression as she spoke.
He then composed himself and asked, "And you? What do you want?"
Zhongzhou Chuxuan didn't hold back either: "Information about the Philosopher's Stone, and all the horror movies you've experienced since The Matrix."
"Not enough; the information on Transformers can only be exchanged for one of them."
Seeing that his other self refused, Chu Xuan did not refute but instead took out a stone box and handed it to Zhan Lan.
"These are snake eyes from the Harry Potter series. They can petrify people. If I'm not mistaken, your shield should come in handy."
Zhan Lan's expression froze for a moment.
Only then did I understand what Chu Xuan meant.
Zheng Zha took the box before Zhan Lan, but did not open it. Instead, he sensed it for a moment before nodding to the demon Chu Xuan.
The other party also took out several sheets of A4 paper.
Then, under Zhan Lan's control, it flew towards Li Xiao and the others.
Seeing that the other party seemed prepared, Li Xiao was not surprised.
I glanced at it, reading three lines at a glance.
"An underground tomb? This is what your previous movie was like?"
"Is this a horror movie? I remember this being a documentary?"
As Li Xiao spoke, he looked down and then realized...
This horror film is not the documentary I was used to; it's a magical world similar to Harry Potter but completely different.
The Philosopher's Stone is one such product.
Li Xiao only glanced at it briefly before giving it to Chu Xuan, while this person put it away without even looking at it.
The deal, as described by both parties, ended just like that, albeit briefly.
It was less of a transaction and more of another test of each other's strengths.
As for the outcome of the test, that's a question for the two Chu Xuans.
After finishing their meal, both teams resumed their precious rest time.
The hissing and chirping of insects and the sounds of gunfire in the ears became white noise that helped people fall asleep.
When Li Xiao opened his eyes again, the moon was hanging at the very top of the sky.
Meanwhile, the alloy wall forming the battle line in the distance had already reached a height of three meters.
Looking at the recoilless rifles on the metal ramparts, each one with a larger caliber than the last.
Li Xiao confirmed one thing: what the devil Chu Xuan said was no different from farting.
This doesn't look like a shortage of raw materials at all.
Li Xiao even suspected that if given enough time, this person could lead a robot army to counterattack the Zerg.
Although Li Xiao didn't know how many Philosopher's Stones the Demon Team had obtained in the previous horror movie, the number was definitely more than expected.
Our gaze shifts to the other side of the alloy wall.
Numerous black, alien cocoons, each half a person's height, stood within the forest, their number countless as one could look out.
It's true that Chu Xuan of the Central Continent Team only has ten Alien Queens, but if Li Xiao isn't mistaken, Alien Queens can also give birth to Alien Queens!
Meanwhile, the Zerg, which were nurturing new life, were continuously sent in and then sent out.
Almost every ten minutes, a new batch of aliens, their forms changing again, would emerge from the bodies of these insectoids and join the increasingly chaotic battlefield.
Guns and cannons are only effective at close range due to their firing range.
The outer perimeter, on the other hand, becomes the aliens' battlefield.
However, before Li Xiao could look any longer, Amya, with her three eyes wide open, suddenly shouted:
"The brain worm has reappeared!"
Actually, there's no need for this person to say more.
The originally chaotic battlefield suddenly became orderly.
The aliens that were wreaking havoc on the periphery were surrounded by a ring of tank bugs and did not attack, while the scattered plasma bugs quickly began to converge.
In just a few dozen seconds, the insectoid aliens suffered heavy casualties when targeted by the swarm.
Just as he got up at midnight, intending to repeat the same trick.
The demon Chu Xuan suddenly appeared and said inexplicably, "I can temporarily free a person from the restrictions of the main god."
Chu Xuan, who had been looking down, adjusted his glasses.
"time?"
"Twenty-eight seconds."
"A resurrection item."
"it is good!"
Demon Chu Xuan looked at the short woman at the very back of the Demon Team.
"Lisa, give him the consciousness extractor."
Upon hearing the demon Chu Xuan's command, Lisa reacted quickly, taking out an extremely thin white syringe from her spatial pouch and handing it over.
Chu Xuan from the Zhongzhou team took it and handed it directly to Li Xiao, who was still confused about what was going on. (End of Chapter)
