The counterattack of the villains

It has to be said that the sentinel was a little harder to fight than Li Mu and others imagined.

If you want to destroy the sentinel, you have to break it into pieces, and you have to cut it into pieces, otherwise it is useless.

Xiao Honglu was the first to discover this.

Compared with long-range explosive attack methods such as mech cannon, Qiankun bow, and dry bone formation, his long-range cutting attack method is easier to find this point.

When he was more than a thousand meters away from the sentinel army, Rijinlun turned into a ball of light and enveloped him, defending in all directions without dead ends.

The Moon Golden Wheel pierced the sky and flew towards the sentinel.

When Yue Jinlun chopped a sentry in half, Xiao Honglu found that the sentry had not been destroyed.

This two-cut injury was of no use to the sentinel, because he recovered in an instant.

So he yelled in his consciousness: "Fuck, the sentinel has Wolverine gene and has a strong recovery ability. It must be broken up to be eliminated."

Facing this kind of opponent, the Moon Golden Wheel was basically useless, so he retracted the Moon Golden Wheel, and headed directly towards the sentinel against the light ball that the Sun Golden Wheel had turned into.

"huhuhuhu"

Facing Xiao Honglu's attack, dozens of sentries responded at the same time.

Their heads split open one after another, and pillars of fire spewed out from them, focusing on the light ball transformed by the Sun Golden Wheel.

The fire pillar emitted by this sentinel is highly condensed, making it appear crimson, just like laser rays or particle beams.

However, in the face of the sentry's attack, Xiao Honglu didn't even choose to dodge, but directly resisted the attack of dozens of fire pillars, and rammed towards a sentry forcefully.

With the supersonic flying speed of Rijinlun, in just three seconds, it crossed a distance of one kilometer and hit a sentinel.

"boom"

The sentry had almost no resistance, and the moment it collided with the light sphere transformed by the sun-golden wheel, it turned into fragments all over the sky.

Although the Rijin Wheel is mainly defensive, its powerful defensive power itself comes from its powerful lethality.

Its defense mechanism is not to resist attacks like the Haotian mirror, but to directly destroy the incoming attacks with its own power.

Therefore, the Rijin Wheel itself has powerful attack power, but its killing distance is only half a foot, and it can only be used in close combat, and it is still used as a defensive spirit treasure most of the time.

After hearing Xiao Honglu's reminder, the others also adjusted their fighting methods one after another.

Chu Xuan gave up the idea of ​​launching melee combat with the Zhanjian Saber. Although this saves more spiritual power, if the sentry cannot be eliminated, saving spiritual power will be meaningless.

So he stopped approaching the sentinel army, and the arms of the mecha and the ship-chopping knife instantly deformed, turning into two thick barrels.

Just like this, Chu Xuan controlled the battle mech, displayed the gun fighting technique, and bombarded the sentry group indiscriminately.

The spiritual energy shells are explosive attacks, and they will explode after hitting the target. The instant lethality of each shell is no less than that of a nuclear explosion, and it can directly blow up the sentinel to pieces.

But it's just that the instantaneous lethality is no less than that of a nuclear explosion, but the range of lethality is not that exaggerated.

Because the power of the spiritual shell is very concentrated, it only acts within a radius of tens of meters, and it will not radiate like a nuclear explosion.

It's just that this kind of attack method consumes a lot of spiritual power. Even with Chu Xuan's cultivation base in the late stage of transforming the gods, to maintain such a strong output, he can last for a few hours at most.

But in fact, let alone a few hours, it is still unknown whether the sentinel army can last for 10 minutes.

As the distance approached, others also shot.

After Li Mulei's electric halberd had absorbed the thunder, he slashed forward, and the terrifying thunder force turned into a tidal surge, and dozens of sentinels exploded in the air with one blow.

A Nuo's style of play is similar to his. When the Ganqi Divine Ax is swung, the ax lights that are cut out are not purely sharp, but contain explosive power.

Zhao Yingkong waved the Nanming Lihuo Sword, and countless Lihuo sword qi roared out, blasting sentries one by one in the air.

Zhang Qin's battle was very easy. The Haotian mirror in his right hand shot out a white beam of light, and the sentinel who was illuminated by the white light was immediately frozen in mid-air, unable to move at all.

Then the golden light mirror in his left hand continuously shot out thunderbolt golden light. Every time a thunderbolt golden light fell on the sentinel, part of the sentry's body structure would disappear, and after a few shots, it basically turned into scum.

From the green light cluster on Changkong Wuji's right hand, a green lightsaber with a length of hundreds of feet extended out.

During the frenzied dance of the lightsaber, any sentinel on its passing trajectory would be crushed to pieces.

Li Yingqi's Heavenly Fencing Sword looks much gentler, Lei Yanjian is very rigid, but Heavenly Fencing Sword is extremely soft, the sword body is like a ribbon, wrapped around sentries.

With a wave of Li Yingqi's right arm, the sentinel broke into seven or eight pieces and fell to the ground.

There were only ten people in the Zhongzhou team, but they were slaughtering enemies a hundred times their size. Naturally, the sentinel army was not helpless.

It's just that in the long-range situation, they will only split their heads and spray fire pillars in one move.

This kind of attack failed to achieve any results except for consuming some spiritual power of Li Mu and the others.

Needless to say, those with defensive spiritual treasures, such as Xiao Honglu's Rijinlun, Zhang Qin's Haotian Mirror, and Arnold's Qiqi Shield, can directly ignore the Sentinel's Fire Pillar.

Those who don't have defensive spirit treasures can activate the honeycomb shield on the battle suit, just consume a little more spiritual power, and they can stably resist the invasion of the fire pillar.

Besides, they didn't just stop there and let the sentries attack. The sentries couldn't lock them.

After they move, the sentry's attack is like a cannon hitting a mosquito. Unless they hit it by themselves, it is basically difficult to hit.

Of course, the Sentinels also tried various methods, such as turning into a steel body of a Colossus, but they still couldn't resist the attacks of various Lingbao soldiers.

Or turn into a fire elemental body, but still cannot be immune to the attacks of the Zhongzhou team, because the attacks they send are energy attacks.

Just like that, the sentinels were decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, which was almost a one-sided massacre.

None of the sentries could cross the blockade line of Li Mu and others and threaten the mutants in the rear.

According to the estimates of Li Mu and others, in order to pose a threat to the Zhongzhou team, at least tens of thousands of sentries need to be dispatched at one time.

So does the Lighthouse government have tens of thousands of sentinels?

Probably not, if necessary, they may have the ability to create an army of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of sentries.

But Zhongzhou team will not give them this time.

Looking at the dreamlike scene in front of them, the mutants felt mixed feelings.

The sentinel army that beat them like bereaved dogs, almost exterminating their entire family, so that they could only keep running away, looked like a joke in front of this group of Eastern immortal cultivators.

The phantom cat looked at the other companions, and saw that they were just staring at the battlefield in mid-air, hesitated for a moment, then walked forward slowly, and walked to Zhan Lan's side.

She looked at Zhan Lan cautiously, and said cautiously, "Hello, what should I call you?"

No wonder she would ask this question, because when Li Mu reported his identity, he had already said that they lived from ancient times to the present, that is to say, their age was at least several thousand years old.

What Phantom Cat said brought all the mutants back to their senses, and they all looked at Phantom Cat and Zhan Lan.

Zhan Lan turned to look at her, smiled, and said softly, "If you follow our oriental cultural habits, you can call me a fairy."

"But you are a Westerner, so you don't need to call me like that, just call me Lan."

Seeing that Zhan Lan is so approachable, Phantom Cat is no longer so restrained. She is full of anticipation but also a little apprehensive and asks: "Lan, I want to ask, can we cultivate immortals?"

Zhan Lan thought for a while and said, "In theory, all mutants can cultivate immortality, because mutant genes are actually spiritual roots, but that's only in theory."

"Possessing spiritual roots is only qualified to cultivate immortals. Whether you can succeed or not depends on the individual. In our words, it depends on your aptitude and understanding."

"However, if you want to cultivate immortality, the most basic requirement is that you must be proficient in oriental culture, at least you must have an understanding of 'Tao', especially various Taoist terms and Taoist ideas."

"Otherwise, if you don't even understand what it is to cultivate immortals, how can you succeed?"

"So if you want to cultivate immortals, read books first. When you understand all kinds of Taoist classics, you can almost start to try to cultivate immortals."

Phantom Cat said happily: "Can you give us a book list?"

Zhan Lan asked back, "Do you understand Chinese?"

"Uh……"

The phantom cat's shoulders collapsed involuntarily, so if you want to cultivate immortality, you have to learn Chinese first.

Just mastering is not enough, they must be proficient, and then they can understand those Taoist classics.

But the whole world knows that Chinese is the most expressive language, but also the most complex.

Even ninety-nine percent of Chinese people dare not say that they are proficient in Chinese, especially the ancient Chinese, which is more obscure than Chinese.

It is almost impossible to achieve the level of proficiency without 20 years of painstaking study.

What Phantom Cat can think of, other people can naturally think of it, and everyone can't help but feel a little frustrated.

Charles' eyes flickered slightly, as if thinking of something.

He controlled his floating wheelchair, flew forward for a certain distance, came behind Zhan Lan, and said softly: "Lan, you were born in ancient times, so you have learned ancient Chinese since the beginning of cultivating immortals, right?"

"If you were to teach us ancient Chinese and explain the true meaning of Tao, wouldn't things be much easier?"

Zhan Lan turned around, looked at Charles seriously and said, "We can indeed teach you ancient Chinese, but the difference between ancient Chinese and modern Chinese is just that the style is different, and the meaning is more obscure and profound."

"However, many vocabulary and special terms cannot be translated in English at all, and even if they are translated, they are specious."

"As for cultivating immortals, even if there is a slight deviation in understanding, there will be big problems. If it is light, the cultivation will be ineffective, and if it is serious, it will even kill yourself."

"Can you imagine what would happen if your super powers got out of control, or if your own power exploded in your body?"

Charles nodded helplessly, and said, "So, if you want to learn ancient Chinese, you must be proficient in modern Chinese as a prerequisite."

Zhan Lan shook her head and said, "Professor's understanding is a little misunderstanding. 'Proficiency' in Chinese already includes ancient Chinese. Only by knowing ancient Chinese can one be considered proficient in Chinese."

"So you only need to learn Chinese to the level of your mother tongue, and we can teach you ancient Chinese, and then teach you Taoism, and finally step on the road of cultivating immortals."

"You have a long life because of the mutant gene. As long as you are willing to learn, you will always have a chance in the future."

Hearing what she said, hope rose again in the hearts of the mutants.

Magneto stepped forward and said: "Lan is right. In the past, we were precarious and faced the threat of death at any time."

"But now that we have you, we already have the hope of surviving. As long as we can survive, we have a chance to become immortal cultivators."

Zhan Lan looked at Magneto, smiled and said, "Among you, Eric and Bishop are the closest mutants to cultivators."

Magneto asked with interest: "Why do you say that?"

Zhan Lan looked at the bishop and said: "A brief overview of cultivating immortals is to understand the universe from the perspective of 'Tao', and then absorb the energy of the universe and turn it into your own energy."

"Then convert your own energy into various other energies according to your needs, so as to achieve the results of attack and defense. Isn't the bishop's super power the same?"

The mutants thought about Zhan Lan's words carefully, and it seemed that it was true.

Bishops can absorb most types of energy, including elemental, sound, light, psionic, spiritual, and more.

After absorbing these energies, he can release them from his body in different ways.

Such as energy explosions, energy rays, flames, plasma, etc.

So for the bishop, he can basically be regarded as immune to energy attacks, because all the energy shot at him will be absorbed by him.

But this is not very powerful among mutants, because he is only immune to energy, but physical attacks can kill him.

Wolverine and Zhan Ji are his nemesis, Magneto wants to kill him, and all he needs is a steel ball.

Zhan Lan looked at Magneto again and said, "Furthermore, Eric, if you imitate the use of magic by a cultivator, you can become a fake sword fairy."

"The symbol of the sword fairy is to control the long sword from the air, and to fly with the sword. You can do it through your own super power."

"However, a real sword fairy can take someone's head from thousands of miles away, but you can only control a long sword within the range of superpowers, so you are a fake sword fairy."

Magneto suddenly realized, Zhan Lan's words also gave him new ideas.

In the past, his use of superpowers seemed a little too rough, and he couldn't exert the strongest lethality at all.

Thinking about it now, if he prepares hundreds of thousands of swords, or other weapons, or even just a bunch of fruit knives, they can exert huge lethality.

Zhan Lan turned around, looked at the battlefield ahead and said, "As for the matter of cultivating immortals, we will take our time in the future. This battle is about to end, everyone prepare to move."

"Find a safe place where the Sentinels can't find and settle down, and then we will be responsible for completely destroying the Sentinels, destroying their manufacturing methods, and even destroying the Lighthouse Government."

"After we have done all this, you will find a way to contact other mutant compatriots. After that, what we need to face is the catastrophe that is about to sweep the world."

The mutants looked at the battlefield ahead, and saw that there were not many sentries in midair.

There are more than 1000 sentries out of [-]. At this time, there are not even one out of ten. Under the siege of Li Mu and others, the entire army will soon be wiped out.
