CHAPTER TEXT:
Daqi Heisi had been feeling restless lately, with his right eyelid twitching constantly, which made him uneasy.
He glanced at the twelve people following him and felt a bit better.
The Hui Tang Clan had several supply teams dispatched, including traditional transport teams and smaller supply groups like his, with each member carrying spatial equipment to store the food.
There were seven regular transport teams and three spatial transport teams, making up the entire lineup of the Hui Tang Clan.
In response to the hidden enemy's targeting, the Hui Tang Clan was not foolish; they took many precautions and guessed that the transport teams might encounter attacks, thus sending out multiple teams together.
No one would think that a small team equipped with numerous spatial devices was solely for transporting food; with that capability, transporting something else would be much more cost-effective.
However, the situation was special, and this approach ensured safety.
The small squad of twelve had considerable combat power, with each member averaging around fifteen thousand fuleira, and as the captain, Daqi Heisi surpassed twenty thousand.
Within the Hui Tang Clan, they were not considered top-tier figures, but at this level, they were equivalent to the golden warriors of the Star-Eye Clan.
Daqi Heisi shook his head, thinking how unfortunate it was to think of the Star-Eye Clan.
“Let’s move quickly; once we get past here, we’ll be closer to Dark Strip City. The sooner we get home, the sooner we can rest,” Daqi Heisi said to his teammates.
Everyone laughed and joked, not feeling any tension at all.
For the warriors of this clan, the issue of food shortages was not something they felt deeply about.
“Wait!”
Daqi Heisi suddenly stopped, raising his fist and scanning the surroundings.
The Hui Tang Clan was incredibly perceptive, and the strongest among them, Daqi Heisi, sensed something was off.
“Sure enough, Hui Tang people are as alert as cats,”
A voice abruptly reached the ears of the thirteen Hui Tang warriors, causing them to instinctively form a formation and keep watch.
“Here!”
A shadow suddenly dashed out from behind a massive rock ahead, moving so fast that it appeared as just a blur.
“Engage!”
Daqi Heisi shouted furiously, leading the charge.
No matter what was coming from the front, they had no option but to fight because, from the opponent's speed alone, they had no chance to escape.
At the same time, Daqi Heisi didn’t feel there was anything they couldn’t fight; perhaps defeating the opponent would reveal the truth behind the food destruction.
However, his teammates hesitated.
“Captain, that's... a mechanical battle beast!”
One of the members shouted this, but it was too late; Daqi Heisi had already taken a step forward, and the shadow barreled toward them.
“Not right, there's something in the sky too!”
As the collision was about to happen, the keen Hui Tang warriors felt something unusual; they looked up and saw a massive white dragon shadow rapidly descending toward them.
They all raised their weapons to respond, but as for the captain, he could only fend for himself.
Suddenly, a powerful mental shockwave emanated from the front, instantly engulfing the thirteen warriors.
The first ability of the mechanical battle beast, Hui Dong, was unleashed.
This was a type of mental shockwave amplification ability that allowed the controller to boost their mental power through the mechanical battle beast.
Ye Zhongming, as someone specialized in mental ability, found this power almost tailor-made for him.
After Hui Dong was activated, everyone in the Hui Tang Clan felt dizzy and prickly, their minds going blank for a moment.
Ye Zhongming piloted Mountain Rage close to Daqi Heisi, raising its enormous mechanical claw, with razor-sharp metallic spikes slicing into the small squad leader, the sound of armor tearing was piercing, and blood gushed out.
This battle armor, which was slightly better than ordinary grade, was simply too fragile against the high-end metal-made Renyi level mechanical battle beast.
