The woman at the forefront of the team suddenly lifted her head and saw it. BOOM—a powerful spiritual power assault washed over her.
It felt dizzy. Not good! it thought, and with a WHOOSH, its insect wings unfolded. It circled in the air and returned to the large tree, growing hooks on its hands and feet to latch on firmly.
Rainbow furrowed her brows slightly. Chen Gu also noticed, "This thing has extrely strong resistance to the abilities of a Brain Domain Hacker!"
This had to be the creature. It had likely devoured so Professionals, which was why it could use the abilities of a Quantum Wizard to prevent his Quantum Divination. It also explained its high resistance to Rainbow's Mind Storm just now.
Chen Jixian stood to one side. Wordlessly, he drew his warhamr and charged forward.
BOOM! A thunderous noise erupted as the Abyssal Blacksmith slamd his hamr down, but it hit nothing—the creature had already vanished. The blow struck the ancient tree, hundreds of ters tall, blasting a large hole high up on its trunk and leaving it swaying precariously.
「...」
On the main road, the main contingent was advancing at high speed when they suddenly heard a loud noise from the mountains. Everyone's expression tensed. "The fight has started! Let's move faster!"
Amidst their rapid advance, the captain of the General Bureau's Fourth Special Operations Division specifically instructed the new recruits, "Once we reach the battlefield, don't panic. Observe Commander Chen Ji's combat style closely."
"We don't expect you to play a significant role this ti. The main reason we brought you is for training and learning."
"Commander Chen Ji's use and combination of Professional abilities, his creation and grasp of battle opportunities, are top-notch in the Bureau. All of us captains greatly admire him. You must cherish this opportunity. Watch closely and absorb as much as you can; it will benefit you imnsely in the future."
"After we return, each of you will write a report on your observations. Those who write well will be rewarded with rit points; those who don't will be assigned to latrine duty!"
「...」
Chen Jixian wasn't discouraged by his missed strike. The monster was fast, but so was he. His body twisted, flas jetting from his back as his speed explosively increased. He charged towards a nearby damaged mountain slope and, without hesitation, swung his hamr again.
This ti, his warhamr erupted with various powerful fiery abilities. Even before it landed, a torrential rain of fire had already ignited the entire mountainside.
"You go on ahead," Chen Jixian said.
Then, with a BANG, the hamr fell, and a large crater appeared on the hillside, flas roiling like a vision of purgatory.
The monster was a bit slower to dodge this ti. It was sent flying, flas igniting on its body.
Chen Gu and Rainbow quickly bypassed the battlefield. Chen Gu's earlier Quantum Divination had shown that their target wasn't this monster, but sothing in a deep mountain cave.
"Don't go!"
The monster suddenly spoke in a human voice. With a BANG, its body disintegrated, and countless iron-thread worms sward out, trying to bypass Chen Jixian's blockade to pursue Chen Gu.
What was even more bizarre was that as these iron-thread worms moved across the ground, they ford into human faces, their mouths opening to speak in unison, "Chen Gu, you are my true opponent!"
Chen Jixian: ? Am I, the captain, so beneath notice?! It's said that fists fear the young and strong; why would you seek out that old fellow for a duel and underestimate a young man like ? Hmph!
His face stern, his eyelids rolled back. It was as if a gate to the abyss had suddenly opened behind him. Endless dark-red flas, like flowing magma, poured out.
Compared to the flas previously unleashed from his warhamr, these were far hotter and carried a certain mystical power. The mont they appeared, they blazed forth, constructing a wall of fire between the monster and Chen Gu.
The iron-thread worms were caught off guard, and a large number of them were instantly incinerated.
The monster shrieked in pain, then beca incandescent with rage. The countless iron-thread worms rapidly converged again, reforming into a giant dozens of ters tall, its face ferocious and its eyes blood-red. "Damn you! I'll kill you first!"
"You're an Abyssal Blacksmith! I've never tasted the brain of your Profession. I imagine it must be full of the taste of rust—the taste of stupidity!"
Unmoved, Chen Jixian faced the monster and began his Professional transformation. Abyssal Blacksmiths were different from Hell Titans. While their transformations were also imposing, they were much shorter and retained key human features, unlike the monstrous appearance of Hell Titans.
However, their skeletons beca incredibly thick, and their muscles bulged with explosive power.
The monster lunged with its claw. Chen Jixian swung his hamr up to et it. BOOM—a solid impact resounded as they clashed.
They seed evenly matched in strength, yet Chen Jixian appeared sowhat stiff. Chen Gu, looking back with concern, realized Chen Jixian had been tricked by the monster.
The monster was extrely crafty. It appeared to be a straightforward clash of brute force, but it had stealthily incorporated an ability similar to Entanglent Control within its attack.
The monster grabbed the stiffened Chen Jixian—now over ten ters tall in his transford state—and with a powerful fling, SMASH! He was sent crashing into a nearby mountainside.
Chen Gu couldn't help but shout, "Don't fall for it! It can use multiple Professional abilities!"
As Chen Gu spoke, Chen Jixian, wreathed in erupting flas, WHOOSHED out from the rubble. With a mighty swing of his hamr, he sent the pursuing monster flying.
