Chapter 458: Your defense is high, or my hammer is hard!

The puppets controlled by the Corpse King are essentially ordinary people possessed by evil spirits. Not only have their physical functions been greatly enhanced, they also do not know fear and have an extremely strong desire to attack. As long as Zhuge Lan and Ling Xin fight back, they will be deducted points!
Faced with hundreds of puppets, the two could only dodge and flee towards the outside of the community. However, the more they ran, the more frightened they became. At first, they were just residents surrounding them from the ground.

Afterwards, the windows of many residential buildings were shattered, and puppets crawled out one by one, like insects pouring out of their nests. They climbed up the stairs with their modified hands and feet, and surrounded them in three dimensions!

"There are too many people!" Zhuge Lan dodged a flying child and said, "Could the Corpse King have transformed everyone in the community?"

"What's the upper limit of the number of puppets he can control at the same time?" Ling Xin kicked an old man with a mouth full of sharp teeth away. She controlled the strength and only knocked him away without killing him.

"I've never fought him head-on, but I heard that he once controlled an entire town!"

"That would require at least tens of thousands of people..." Ling Xin frowned, looking at the seemingly endless enemies: "If this drags on, it will never end... Either we lose points and fight our way out... or we can only find the corpse king's body and kill him!"

Fight their way out? Zhuge Lan took a look and realized that it was basically impossible to fight their way out without killing a hundred people. Whether their points would be enough was another matter. Even if they could barely hold on, they would lose their tolerance rate. When the next disaster came, as long as the casualties were slightly greater, they would be sent to go through the elimination process!
"You said before that the enemy was on the fifth floor..." Zhuge Lan looked upstairs at the cafe where they were before.

"Now that the enemy has discovered us, they will definitely not stay where they are..." Ling Xin shook her head: "How long will it take for your teammate to arrive?"

Zhuge Lan looked at his phone and saw that he hadn't replied yet: "I just sent him the location. I don't know when he can come..."

"It may not work even if I come..." Ling Xin gritted her teeth and said, "The other party is a top master who has unlocked the Condensed Mind State, and has two helpers..." Thinking of this, she also took out her mobile phone and decisively posted the location of this place in the group, and left a message: "There are three polluters here! Including the [Supernatural] Corpse King, who can control ordinary people as puppets!"

"You want to summon Ye?" Zhuge Lan frowned. In her guess, Ye and Lin Feng should be the same person, so this was totally unnecessary. She instinctively wanted to warn him, but then she thought that this was a secret that only she could guess, so she closed her mouth again...

"Ye should be able to deal with the Corpse King, and he's very fast." Ling Xin didn't notice Zhuge Lan's subtle expression, and continued to explain: "Let's protect ourselves first and beware of the enemy's possible sneak attacks!"

…………

"Huh?" Luo Jun, who had already walked near the community, was attracted by a group message.

"Ling Xin sent it? There are three polluters here?" Luo Jun compared the map. "Isn't this the place Zhuge Lan sent me? Corpse King? Controlling ordinary people as puppets?"

Could it be that Ling Xin and Zhuge Lan found the same place?
But what should I do now? Now that I am right in front of you, should I go there as Lin Feng or as "Ye"?
If it was Raymond Lam, then it would be hard to explain why Ye didn’t come for so long… If it was Ye, then he came too quickly, right?

And Ling Xin was there too... Zhuge Lan didn't know him, so it would have been fine if he couldn't tell that he was in disguise. Ling Xin was a classmate for many years... Even though they hadn't had much interaction before and she probably hadn't paid much attention to him, it would be hard to explain if his identity was discovered.

After thinking about it, Luo Jun put on the mask, leaped into the community.

There seemed nothing unusual from the outside, but as soon as he entered the community, Luo Jun felt a strange aura, a kind of energy that permeated the air and seemed to be there and not there... Ordinary people should not be able to feel it, but he relied on his extremely powerful perception attributes to detect it.

This energy has a tendency to invade the human body, but Luo Jun's strong bones are not afraid of this level of invasion at all. Once his internal energy is activated, all those strange auras are isolated.

As he walked further, he heard the sound of glass breaking. Strange monsters kept crawling out from the surrounding residential buildings and surrounded him.

These are the puppets that are being controlled...are they dead or alive? Will I lose points if I kill them?

To be on the safe side, Luo Jun ignored these puppets. He tiptoed onto the ground and jumped directly onto the roof of the sixth floor. He walked forward on the roof and soon heard the sound of fighting coming from the front.

It was an open space in the middle of the buildings. Surrounded by dense puppets, the two girls were struggling to resist. They didn't dare to kill the puppets. When attacked, they could only dodge or push away. They relied on their internal energy and extraordinary physical fitness to persevere and constantly tried to break through, but there were always more puppets blocking their way to escape!

In Luo Jun's opinion, the two of them were like being surrounded by a group of babies under one year old. These babies were fragile, but they crawled very fast and would cling to anyone they saw. Not to mention kicking or hitting them, even a little effort to shake them off could injure or even kill them. They were really restricted...

However, although they looked embarrassed, they were protected by the Qi and were not in danger for the time being. After all, a strong baby was still a baby, and these strengthened puppets were only slightly stronger than ordinary people. They were not a big threat to the practitioners who had unlocked the Qi.

The real danger may be the hidden polluters!
The Corpse King is a master who is on par with the Spirit King Zhuge Lang whom they had faced before. It seems that he has unlocked the Condensed Mind Realm. If he attacks, it would be difficult to deal with these two Pei Yuan Realm warriors...

However, this also aroused Luo Jun's curiosity. He had already trapped the two of them, so why didn't the Corpse King take action yet? Could it be that he was being sympathetic to the women?
At this moment, as more and more puppets surrounded them, they suddenly became agitated, and then black shadows appeared on their bodies, and they concentrated to attack Zhuge Lan and Ling Xin.

The two's internal energy was able to resist at first, but the corrosive power of the black energy was too strong, and it soon stained the internal energy and penetrated into it, causing the two's skin to begin to show signs of cyanosis.

Did they take action? I didn't expect that they would use the spiritual pollution on the puppets... Are they going to turn Zhuge Lan and Ling Xinye into puppets?

It was impossible to judge the opponent's position from this move. Luo Jun frowned slightly, jumped into the crowd, grabbed the arms of two people with one hand each, and jumped back to the roof.

"Ye?" The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw it was him, and immediately circulated their internal energy to remove the pollution. Soon, the black color on his skin slowly faded, and the stained aura slowly became transparent and clear.

"You came so quickly?" Ling Xin looked at Luo Jun with a slightly surprised tone.

"I happened to be nearby." Luo Jun said perfunctorily. Zhuge Lan on the side looked at him and said: "I also called a teammate, named Lin Feng. He has a face full of scars and a beard. Did you see it?" As expected, when he was asked, Luo Jun subconsciously touched his chin and secretly marveled at the magic of the Midnight Mask... Although he had disguised himself and had a face full of beard, after putting on the mask, these obvious features were hidden, and there was no difference between the lower half of his face and before.

"I met a person who was similar to what you described." Luo Jun said, "He saw me coming and knew he couldn't get any points, so he left..."

This explanation was a bit far-fetched, but the incident happened suddenly and Luo Jun couldn't think of a better excuse.

"Do you still have the detection function?"

"I still have some!" Zhuge Lan said, "Do you need it now?"

"Use!" Luo Jun said decisively: "Determine the enemy's position, I will go deal with them, you just protect yourselves here!"

Zhuge Lan nodded, immediately used the detection function, and pointed to the building where the teahouse was located: "Three red dots... have dispersed. Two of them are still on the fifth floor, but one has left..." As she spoke, she pointed in another direction: "Over there, just behind that building, it is moving eastward very quickly!"

Luo Jun frowned slightly and immediately chased in the direction Zhuge Lan pointed.

Compared to the two that didn't move, the one running around needs to be dealt with first!
Luo Jun was extremely fast and crossed the building in just three or two steps. Behind the building was a group of puppet monsters with bared fangs and claws, in a mess.

But Luo Jun's eyes were sharp as torches as he swept through the crowd and finally locked onto one of them!
She was an old woman who looked to be in her sixties. Although her skin looked purple and her veins bulged out like everyone else, in Luo Jun's vision, there was a faint glow on the old woman.

That faint light was not the same as normal qi. Luo Jun had only seen it on others after he had gained a perception enhancement of over 100 attributes.

That is the Qi in the hidden Qi state. This old lady is the polluter!
After confirming the target, Luo Jun rushed forward immediately. The old lady obviously realized that she had been discovered, and finally stopped hiding. Dazzling aura rose from her body, and at the same time, the puppets around her also rushed towards Luo Jun to stop her as if they were risking their lives!

Luo Jun was so fast that he was like a fish swimming in the crowd, dodging and moving as if there was no one around, and he arrived in front of the old lady in an instant!
The old lady clasped her hands together, and the puppets around her fell to the ground one after another. A group of black shadows emerged from their bodies and attacked Luo Jun. However, Luo Jun's Qi was not comparable to Ling Xin and Zhuge Lan, who were both in the Peiyuan realm. Such a high concentration of pollution could not penetrate the indestructible Ningyuan Qi. Luo Jun completely ignored it, raised his hand as fast as lightning, grabbed the old lady's neck, and took her away from the crowd!

The old lady also struggled hard, but Luo Jun's hand held her tightly like an iron hook and could not be shaken. The Ning Yuan Qi was activated and enveloped her again. The ghosts could not use their abilities at all, and could only allow Luo Jun to grab her and take her away!

So what if he is a Corpse King? Even if he is at the peak level, it would be difficult for him to resist when Luo Jun gets close to him. What's more, she is not at that level yet. If she was not afraid of hurting innocent people, Luo Jun would have killed her as soon as they met!

"Don't even think about killing me!" The old woman was also ruthless: "Do you think my ability is only to manipulate puppets? What I am most praised for in the [Supernatural] is actually my defense! As long as I push my ability to the extreme, even the strongest masters can't hurt me at all!"

"Oh? Defensive power?" Luo Jun narrowed his eyes. With his superhuman perception and the feel of pinching her neck, he could indeed sense that the Qi on this old lady's body was incredibly hard, even stronger than his Condensed Yuan Qi!

No... it's not the hardness. Luo Jun felt that the protective aura of this corpse king seemed to have some mysterious structure. It was different from the defensive principle of normal aura, but Luo Jun couldn't figure out the specific principle. It should be some kind of secret method!
No matter what it is, Luo Jun doesn't believe that there is an unbreakable defense in this world!

Grabbing the corpse king, they rushed to an open space. Luo Jun kicked his feet and took out the Wanjun Hammer with a flip of his hand.

"You seem very confident in your defense..." Luo Jun snorted coldly, grabbed the chain and swung it, and with the skill of changing weight, the hammer head carried the two of them soaring into the sky and soon they were high in the air.

The old lady didn't expect Luo Jun to do this. She asked in surprise, "What do you want to do?"

"Only here will it not affect others." As he said that, Luo Jun grabbed the corpse king's head with one hand, swung the hammer with the other hand, and smashed it at her!
The Wanjun Hammer became as light as a feather under Luo Jun's control. With the help of his arm strength, it accelerated to its fastest speed. At the moment when it was about to hit, it suddenly recovered to its weight of two thousand tons!
The energy contained in this hammer was incomparable. It exploded the moment it came into contact with the Corpse King's aura. Suddenly, a strong light exploded in the air, followed by a loud bang and a shock wave that spread out, shattering the glass of residential buildings hundreds of meters below!

This terrifying hammer was almost as powerful as a tactical nuclear missile. The kinetic energy released alone caused a powerful air explosion. What was even more terrifying was that this hammer was not like a bomb or a meteorite that would break into pieces and disperse the energy. When the hammer hit the corpse king, it released all the energy on the old lady. No matter how strong her internal energy was, she could not withstand it and was instantly smashed into a ball of blood mist, which vaporized due to the high temperature!
Even Luo Jun, who was holding the hammer, was affected by the powerful force, and the internal energy in his body was shaken.

The moment the Corpse King vaporized, Luo Jun noticed that the number of people on the ground had decreased by one, and at the same time, news came that the income had reached 850 points!

This time I made a fortune!
While Luo Jun was excited, suddenly, a warning sounded in his mind:

"The player's points have been reset to zero. The mission has failed, triggering the elimination process!"

"The countdown to annihilation begins!"

"Ten, nine, eight..."

what happened?

The sudden prompt sound left Luo Jun completely stunned. He subconsciously checked his remaining score, and it was clearly zero!

This is impossible! I should have at least 3,000 points! How is it possible that...

Thinking of this, Luo Jun was suddenly startled. He looked down and, with his extraordinary eyesight, he saw that the thousands of puppets in the community were lying on the ground, lifeless...
