Abyss invasion? As a demon cultivator, I laughed.

Just when Chu Xiu was meditating to recover his mana, Qin Xiang looked at the thick layer of ashes covering the entire cave in front of him on the battlefield not far away, and couldn't help showing a look of astonishment in his eyes.

He stepped in, and the ashes directly covered his entire calf.

"With such thick ashes, how many corrupted creatures have been killed!"

The ashes in front of me were nearly half a meter high. Even if we did not mention those who escaped during this period of time, at least one hundred thousand people would have been killed in this cave alone.

Not long ago, he suddenly received information about a riot in the third front channel, and a large number of corrupt creatures took the initiative to raid the defensive stronghold.

After receiving the news, Qin Xiang's heart immediately tightened. He thought it was a disaster underground and did not want to sit still and wait for death. He took the initiative to launch a surprise attack and immediately rushed over with Wang Jie, who was responsible for guarding this front.

However, when they arrived, they discovered that although the corrupted creatures that launched the attack were numerous in number, they were all low-level creatures of the mortal and soldier levels, and could not break through the fire blockade that everyone had already arranged.

After leaving behind tens of thousands of corpses, they retreated in embarrassment.

This made Qin Xiang confused.

What is this for? Come to give someone a head?

However, Qin Xiang would not be careless, and immediately sent out awakeners to investigate.

However, the news he received surprised him, that is, in the next defensive stronghold, a huge battle took place, involving at least 100,000 corrupted creatures! And it involves a lot of high-level stuff!

This news made Qin Xiang confused. The other kings were guarding the stronghold honestly, and besides them, who else had the ability to do this?

And just when he was completely confused about what was happening, he got another piece of news, that is, before the attack of the corrupt creatures, someone had seen the King of Dark Night going deep into the pit alone!

This made Qin Xiang anxious and angry.

When he talked to Chu Xiu before, he knew that the other party would most likely not follow his instructions, but he never expected that he would be so bold as to go deep into the territory of corrupt creatures alone!

No, you are a fierce person, who gave you the courage?

Even though he is a talented civilized envoy, he has only been awakened for less than two months, and he only has the combat power of a high-level general.

This kind of strength is naturally enough to overwhelm the geniuses of his generation outside, but it is not enough in the dangerous abyss!

"It seems that the child's awakening has been too smooth, which has made him arrogant and arrogant."

"Even if you risk offending this person, you have to find an opportunity to give it a good beating. Otherwise, how can you pass the old trial?"

Qin Xiang was secretly angry, but he immediately summoned another Wang Jie to go deep together to search for traces of Chu Xiu.

After all, he was an envoy of civilization. If he died like this, it would be a huge loss to mankind.

"So you should have deprived this boy of his talent along with the [Proof of the Past] as I said."

Beside Qin Xiang, Mu Wu sneered.

"Although that guy is cautious enough, if the four kings of us join forces and are attacked by a surprise attack, I don't believe he can react!"

Qin Xiang remained silent and just continued to move forward, but actually his heart was vaguely moved.

Although he was very opposed to this method, the old trials were related to the development of human civilization, and he did not want any accidents to happen.

However, when the two arrived at the second defensive stronghold, where Chu Xiu fought, they were both stunned.

"What's happening here?"

Mu Wu swept away the ashes in front of him, revealing the uneven rock underneath, which had cooled but still showed signs of melting. A look of shock could not be suppressed on his face.

He quickly estimated that there were a hundred thousand corrupt creatures dead here!

"One hundred thousand corrupted creatures, even if they are all mortal-level, cannot be killed by ordinary generals in a short time, right? What's more, according to the report, from the departure of the Dark Night King to the attack of the corrupted creatures, the interval was no more than half an hour. !”

This made Mu Wu frown.

Qin Xiang said seriously: "No, the corrupt creatures here are definitely not only low-level! Look at this!"

Mu Wu followed Qin Xiang's fingers and saw a large shield machine that was stuck in the rock and had been completely damaged.

At this time, the blade of this huge beast was filled with dense scratches, each one being more than ten centimeters deep!

An uncontrollable look of shock appeared in Mu Wu's eyes again: "This kind of energy output is definitely that of a high-level general! Even a king!"

"Could it be that the King of Dark Night already has the fighting power of a king? But how is this possible?!"

His face was full of disbelief.

Even those disciples who are most valued by the Heavenly King, with the Heavenly King's resources invested, usually take about half a year to reach the combat power of the king. However, the civilization envoys who have challenged in the past have prepared for at least a full year for more than one year. Go take part in the Old Trials!

Qin Xiang also looked puzzled.

To be honest, when he heard Xue Li and others report that the Dark Night King had an extremely powerful ghost army with a comprehensive strength comparable to that of a general, he was not too shocked.

After all, the Dark Night King's strength in the battle against the Corpse King was already astonishing, and after redeeming so many causal points, it was not unusual for his strength to increase rapidly.

But, it’s time to stop here.

After the resources are exhausted, shouldn't the speed of increasing its strength stagnate?

But what happens now? Why the hell didn't it slow down, but instead went faster?

Could it be that this guy, who has only been awakened for two months, is already qualified to participate in the Heroic Spirit Ranking?

This is almost unique in the entire history of the Chinese Awakeners! Only a few of the Heavenly Prince's descendants can compare with him with the supply of large amounts of resources!

This made the two kings look confused.

"It should be using some special method, such as a powerful one-time prop, or some special trap formation." Mu Wu affirmed.

Qin Xiang also nodded. Neither of them could explain that someone could reach the king's level within two months. This was beyond common sense.

And if they knew that the scars on the shield machine were just the aftermath of the Sin-Judging Demon Sword, I don’t know how wonderful their expressions would be.

Even this sword is just an ordinary crime-killing magic sword, not a real magic sword with twice the power.

And just when the two kings were shocked, another news came.

Chu Xiu, who had disappeared for a long time, appeared in the camp

Three days later, in the awakened camp.

Chu Xiu looked at Qin Xiang who was hesitant to speak across from him, and said with some humor: "Senior Qin specially called me here, I don't know why? What do you want to say, but just say it."

Qin Xiang took a breath and asked seriously: "Classmate Chen, I have to ask you something. Is the incident that happened in the third attack channel related to you?"

"That's right," Chu Xiu admitted readily. "At that time, I wanted to go deep and look for some opportunities. I happened to encounter an ambush by corrupt creatures, so I killed them all."

"I just didn't expect these guys to be so angry and chase them all the way."

Looking at Chu Xiu with a calm expression, Qin Xiang couldn't help but twitch his lips.

It sounds like you just killed a few corrupt creatures, but you killed them so much that you covered a five thousand square meter cave!

Three days ago, after learning that Chu Xiu had returned to the camp, although Qin Xiang was full of doubts, he did not go to him immediately because there were still battle lines that he needed to command and stabilize.

Therefore, after sending people to investigate, they launched a general attack on the pit according to the original plan and put Chu Xiu's matter aside.

However, although he did not personally investigate, the people under Qin Xiang were all elites, and they still restored the battle situation to almost 90% accuracy.

It should be that Chu Xiu used the defense facilities of the second defensive stronghold to set up corresponding formations and traps, and used [pollutants] to draw out Disaster's troops and annihilate them in one fell swoop.

I just don’t know how many high-level combat forces the opponent has dispatched, but even if they are all low-level, this is amazing enough.

I have to admit that this was an extremely bold move, which made Qin Xiang change his view of Chu Xiu again.

Perhaps, this child's ability to grow so quickly is not just due to his outstanding talent.

Without further entanglement, Qin Xiang got down to business: "I heard from my subordinates that you have been inquiring about the battle situation on the front line during this time?"

"Yes." Chu Xiu nodded.

Three days of practice have allowed him to completely replenish the consumed golden embryo source and mana, and he can act again.

Qin Xiang said: "The news you heard may be somewhat inaccurate. Since you want to know, I'll tell you personally."

Next, Qin Xiang briefly recounted what happened in the past three days.

As Chu Xiu expected, none of the three fronts encountered too fierce resistance.

After all, the high-level combat power has been taken away by him, and Calamity is not a fool, so he will not resist forcefully.

On the contrary, Disaster adopted the [attrition] tactic.

In short, it is to continuously send small groups of troops to attack and consume the coalition's artillery reserves at the minimum cost.

The coalition forces quickly reacted and began to use more Awakeners to fight with them. They only used artillery shells when encountering large troops.

Under this situation, although the coalition forces had been advancing steadily, they were not very fast. It took them three full days to reach the vicinity of the pit.

At this time, everyone discovered that more than half of the mountain near the pit had been dug through. If everyone's actions had been delayed for a week or two, the disaster would have been able to escape.

Disaster, whose plan was disrupted, retreated back to the bottom of the pit with all the elites, only sending low-level corrupted creatures to harass.

"Currently, there are only a small number of low-intensity battles on the front line, which can be considered a stalemate."

"In order not to waste artillery shells, we did not rush to launch an attack at the bottom of the pit. Instead, we ordered the construction of fortifications in place and expanded the scope of the stronghold."

After listening to Qin Xiang's words, Chu Xiu nodded thoughtfully.

Disaster's actions were all within his expectations.

And because most of the high-level people were killed by him, even though the coalition destroyed a large number of corrupted creatures in the three-day battle, the resources obtained were not satisfactory. Even if they were added up, they were only a little more than Chu Xiu. , it would be pitifully small if given to each person.

This once again made him feel that his actions were correct. If he participated in the decisive battle step by step, the resources of the colonel and other high-level creatures would be cheaper than others.

"But if I still want to continue eating meat, it will be a little troublesome." Chu Xiu touched his chin.

The bottom of the pit is the home of disaster, and there is currently too little information. No one knows what they will encounter down there.

In the worst case scenario, you may even face the disaster itself!

Chu Xiu would not be arrogant enough to think that if he killed the colonel, there would be nothing he could do about the disaster. When he came into contact with the disaster, he sensed several terrifying auras. There must be powerful creatures at the bottom of the pit, but maybe Like a disaster, it is impossible to leave due to certain restrictions.

Moreover, Chu Xiu felt that Calamity might be showing weakness on purpose, and might actually be able to instigate one or two awakened humans as he said. In other words, he had to be wary of others.

"So, what is the current plan of the government?" Chu Xiu asked.

Qin Xiang didn't speak, but pushed a small player in front of Chu Xiu.

"This is the picture we have initially detected."

Chu Xiu lowered his head and looked down. The monitor was completely dark, and he couldn't see anything. Suddenly, a faint light came on, briefly illuminating the nearby environment. There were only a few blurry images. They were steel buildings, some of which were still on the surface. Covered with dark red vines like blood vessels.

A few seconds later, the screen shook violently. It seemed that the tool that recorded the screen was attacked in some way, and the screen immediately went black.

"We have collected very little information so far, but what we can roughly determine is that there is a huge and complete military base at the bottom of the pit!"

"The area alone is at least thirty square kilometers, and there is a high probability of a complex underground structure!"

"And this military base has complete defense facilities, such as anti-aircraft cannons, automatic artillery, mine nets, etc. Although these modern technologies are not cutting-edge in our opinion, after being corrupted, they have special power. "

"Cooperating with those corrupted creatures that have not fought us head-on will make exploration extremely dangerous!"

"What's even more troublesome is that according to the latest intelligence, the bottom of the pit is more than 13,000 meters away from our stronghold, making it difficult to deliver fire support!"

Qin Xiang's words made Chu Xiu frown.

In this case, even if he goes too far, there will be great risks.

"So, I hope you can give up this exploration. There are many opportunities in the world of zombies, and there is no shortage of them. Let the high-level awakeners solve the problem here." Qin Xiang advised.

In response to this, Chu Xiu just smiled indifferently: "Senior Qin, I believe that the elites of the government will not only collect this information, nor will they only make this preparation."

"You only need to inform the government of the arrangements, and I will evaluate the pros and cons."

Seeing that Chu Xiu was not frightened at all, Qin Xiang also sighed and said with a wry smile: "You kid really doesn't listen to advice. Forget it, I'm too lazy to care. You can see for yourself."

After that, Qin Xiang showed Chu Xiu a strange chart: "This is the energy density of the disaster that we use special props to monitor."

"Currently, its energy level is between [King Level] and [Heroic Spirit]. Considering Calamity's energy utilization efficiency, it can be roughly judged that its combat power is between high-level King Level and top King Level."

"An optimistic estimate is that an average king-level awakened person can fight it. A conservative estimate is that it may take two or three people to work together to drive it away."

"And because we don't know the special abilities the other party may have, this adds many unexpected variables to the battle."

"At the same time, there are at least three to six royal-level combat forces lurking in the base."

"Our plan is to first use firepower to cover targeted areas and clear out the defense facilities of the underground military base, while minimizing the density of corrupt organisms."

"Then, the elite team led by the four kings will go deep as the first exploration team. Their purpose is not to eliminate the disaster, but to collect as much intelligence as possible."

“After establishing a foothold, let other teams in.”

"Originally, for the sake of conservatism, we did not plan to let anyone except the king-level team go in-depth. However, this is an opportunity after all, and we have no right to stop it, so for others, we will adopt the form of free team registration."

"So, after hearing this, do you still plan to go down?"

Chu Xiu didn't answer, but there was a thoughtful look in his eyes.

In other words, the worst case scenario is that there is a top-level king underneath, paired with six ordinary kings?

Seeing that he was not afraid at all, but was thinking seriously, Qin Xiang couldn't help but said: "Tell me honestly, do you already have the strength of a king?"

Chu Xiu smiled and was noncommittal.

Qin Xiang sighed: "I have already made up my mind to prevent you from entering the pit no matter what. After all, as a civilization envoy, it is not only about you, but also the future development of our humanity."

"But your talent is indeed far beyond my expectations. For an extraordinary genius like you, I don't want to limit it with the thinking of ordinary people. You can just follow your own ideas."

"But if you must enter the pit, I have a condition."

"What conditions?" Chu Xiu asked.

"That is, you must bring at least three teammates with you and treat this operation as a rehearsal for the old trial."
