The single horn of the One Horned Iron Rhinoceros was quickly stored by Luo Feng into his spatial ring. He immediately used mental energy transmission and shouted, “Leave quickly, there is a squad ambushing us from behind!”
“What?” Hong and Thunder God were startled.
Without time to hesitate, the five immediately rushed into the nearby forest, leaving behind the huge corpses of the One Horned Iron Rhinoceroses. Twelve kilometres was nothing to Stellar level experts. In the outside world, they could cross that distance in just one second. Even though their speed was reduced within this World Master world, it still would not take long.
Inside the forest.
Standing on the Soaring Shuttle, Luo Feng flipped his hand and took out a shield and an alloy battle blade. He also quickly put on an ordinary alloy battle suit.
Alloy battle suits, battle blades, and similar equipment were not very expensive because they had no amplification effects. However, their materials were extremely tough, reaching D grade.
If D grade alloy was used to build a spaceship, it would naturally be astonishingly expensive. But for battle blades, alloy battle suits, shields, and similar items, the price was much lower.
“Chi chi!”
A blood red battle helmet quickly extended from Luo Feng’s head.
It was formed from the Moyun Vine.
……
Holding a hexagonal shield and an alloy battle blade, Luo Feng was covered in a metallic battle suit that reflected cold light. At first glance, it looked almost like leather armour. His entire body moved as fast as lightning as he fled, while he anxiously asked in his heart:
“Babata, how strong is that squad?”
“Seven Stellar level ninth ranks, one Stellar level second rank, and one Stellar level third rank.” Babata replied.
“Damn it.” Luo Feng cursed inwardly.
“Their speed is very fast. The distance is shrinking. 2.8 kilometres… 2.6 kilometres…” Babata continuously informed Luo Feng.
“There are seven Stellar level ninth ranks behind us.” Luo Feng used mental energy transmission to tell Hong, Thunder God, Ao Gu, and Tie Nanhe.
“This is troublesome.”
Hong and the others all felt tremendous pressure.
At this moment, the pursuing squad behind them continued closing the distance. The gap had already shrunk to less than one kilometre.
With a knife carved face and crystal clear skin that looked like jade, the young man seemed almost transparent enough that the tiny blood vessels beneath his skin could be seen. His eyes occasionally narrowed, and when he smiled, he looked harmless.
At this moment, he wore a force battle suit that looked like leather armour and carried a gigantic battle blade almost as tall as himself on his back. A companion was pulling him along by the hand, using a mental weapon to quickly chase after Luo Feng’s group.
“Hmph.” He lowered his head and glanced at the smart optical computer screen on his arm. “Two Stellar level ninth ranks, and three Stellar level first and second ranks? Hmph! They are really weak!”
“Six hundred metres, five hundred metres, four hundred metres…” He continuously calculated the distance.
He had already spotted the squad ahead moving rapidly.
The other eight team members were mostly wearing goggles. These goggles also functioned as display screens, with strings of data occasionally flashing across them.
“Surround them!” he ordered through force transmission.
“Yes!”
Seven of the other eight members responded.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The group quickly spread out, surrounding Luo Feng’s five-man team.
……
Luo Feng’s group stopped and looked at the nine people surrounding them. This was still within the Longsuo Mountain Range. There were countless towering trees around them, and some of these giant trees still had claw marks left behind by fierce beasts. Such incredibly tough trees were rarely seen even in the universe. It made people admire the methods of the World Master.
“Who is the leader?” the young man at the front of the nine shouted. His gaze swept repeatedly over Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God. Clearly, during the Universe Trainee Mercenary Examination, most groups would arrange stronger people to protect important young members. The weaker ones were often the ones giving orders.
“It is me.”
Luo Feng stared at the young man in front of him.
“Who are you people, and what do you want?”
“Hahaha, your question is really foolish. What else could we want? Don’t you already know?” The young man sneered. His eyes were filled with superiority, as if he was looking at a beggar.
“Kid, hand over all six horns of the One Horned Iron Rhinoceros, and I can spare your lives. If you refuse…”
The young man gave a few cold laughs.
Luo Feng looked at the group surrounding them. A large amount of data appeared on the screen of his arm guard.
“Why waste time talking to them? Just kill them directly.” A black battle suit wearing girl beside the young man said coldly.
The young man became annoyed inwardly.
“This idiot. Did she not notice that they also have two Stellar level ninth ranks? Although we can win, if they fight desperately, even if we kill them, our side will probably lose people too. If we can obtain the horns without anyone dying, wouldn’t that be better?”
“My companions are already getting impatient.” The young man looked at Luo Feng’s group. “Give us an answer.”
Surrounded in the centre.
Luo Feng’s group of five naturally looked towards their master. Tie Nanhe and Ao Gu looked at Luo Feng, while Hong and Thunder God exchanged glances with him.
“The horns of the One Horned Iron Rhinoceros?” Luo Feng flipped his hand and took out one horn, looking at the young man. “A horn? We can give you one.”
“Six! Not a single one less!”
The young man’s voice was cold.
The other eight stared at Luo Feng’s group. Earlier, they had clearly seen twenty one One Horned Iron Rhinoceroses drinking water by the lake. Sixteen had died, and a group that arrived earlier had taken away ten horns. Therefore, they were certain that this yellow skinned, black haired human team had taken the remaining six horns.
“Black haired kid!” the girl beside him shouted. “We are people from the Hundred Tiger Tower. Quickly hand over the horns, otherwise… hmph!”
Hundred Tiger Tower?
One of the four major cosmic organisations within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire?
Coming from Hundred Tiger Tower meant this group had definitely received professional training. At least in terms of combat ability, they were absolutely outstanding.
“Are you handing them over or not?” The young man was becoming impatient.
“Stop wasting time with them.” The girl urged.
The five people surrounded in the centre also felt immense pressure. Luo Feng could tell that the other side was clearly running out of patience.
“Ao Gu.” Luo Feng transmitted mentally.
“Master.” Old man Ao Gu immediately replied.
“Once we fight, follow what I told you before entering the World Master world. Do you know what to do?”
“Understood.” Ao Gu immediately answered.
Luo Feng coldly swept his gaze across the Hundred Tiger Tower squad. His eyes passed over those Stellar level ninth rank experts wearing goggles, before finally landing on the young man and woman.
“The horns. I can give you one at most. If you still are not satisfied… I advise you, once certain things happen, it will be too late to regret them.”
“Trying to scare me?” The young man sneered.
“Hmph.” The girl turned to look at the young man.
The two almost simultaneously retreated.
Boom! Boom! Boom!…
Except for one Stellar level ninth rank expert protecting the two of them, the other six erupted with power at the same time.
At the very moment they burst into action, Luo Feng, who was standing beside Ao Gu, suddenly turned cold in the eyes.
Shua!
A blue blade fragment appeared out of nowhere. Ao Gu’s mental energy was like a giant hand, firmly grasping the body of the blade fragment while only exposing the blade edge.
The edge of the blade had a strange faint red glow.
That’s right!
This was the Scarlet Mixed Copper Mother after being coated with a layer of alloy. Only the sharp blade edge remained uncovered.
This move was one of Luo Feng’s current ultimate killing techniques.
Among his enslaved servants, the strongest spirit reader servant, Ao Gu, was using a fragment of Scarlet Mixed Copper Mother. With the terrifying sharpness of Scarlet Mixed Copper Mother, even if Ao Gu used it, it could probably injure even Universe level experts!
“Xiu!”
The blue blade light drew an arc through the air and flashed towards the incoming Stellar level ninth rank enemies like lightning.
“Master, be careful, it is a mental energy attack.” Ao Gu immediately warned.
He had already spread out his mental energy. He only used half of his attention to control the Scarlet Mixed Copper Mother fragment. His main focus was completely on defence, because the soul defences of Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God could not withstand the soul attacks of a Stellar level ninth rank spirit reader.
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Ao Gu blocked the mental attacks of three people.
Pu! Pu! Pu!
The blue blade light easily swept past the surrounding Stellar level ninth ranks. Under the terrifying speed and unmatched sharpness of the blade, the warriors and spirit readers wearing goggles, who had looked serious and confident moments before, all had their heads sliced off.
Their skulls exploded, and blood and brain matter scattered everywhere.
Before dying, their eyes behind the goggles were filled with fear.
“Impossible!”
The young man and woman watching from a distance widened their eyes in shock.
Stellar level ninth rank experts!
How could they be so easily defeated?
What they did not know was just how terrifyingly sharp the opponent’s mental weapon was.
When the Meteor Ink Star Ship accelerated, ordinary meteorites and asteroids could not stop it. It could directly crash through and slice apart an asteroid. Even when facing groups of meteorites, it would charge straight through.
Its sharpness could be imagined.
Even a World Master expert could be easily cut apart by its sharp edges when the Meteor Ink Star Ship accelerated.
“Run!”
The young man immediately transmitted an order to his nearby subordinate, a Stellar level ninth rank spirit reader.
The subordinate immediately carried the young man while also preparing to take the girl.
“Throw her away. Hurry.” The young man ordered.
“Yes.”
In terms of status, the girl was slightly lower than the young man. The bodyguard also understood that once the opponent’s spirit reader speed increased, he would not be able to escape while carrying two people.
“Whoosh!”
The bodyguard carried the young man and stepped onto his mental weapon, quickly transforming into a streak of light and fleeing.
“Wait for me!”
The girl’s face instantly turned pale. Then she turned around and saw the blue streak of light that had killed six Stellar level ninth ranks drawing an arc through the air and flying towards her.
The girl’s expression became twisted, and her eyes were filled with hatred.
“Qiu Yu!!!”
Pu!
Her head exploded.
……
In just the blink of an eye, six Stellar level ninth rank experts, including an elite young member of Hundred Tiger Tower, had all been killed.
The young man called Qiu Yu and his bodyguard had already escaped far away.
“Don’t chase them.” Luo Feng said.
“Yes, Master.”
Ao Gu and Tie Nanhe respectfully replied.
Luo Feng directly stored the Scarlet Mixed Copper Mother fragment back into his ring.
If he wanted to chase that person, Ao Gu would have to go alone. Furthermore, Ao Gu could not take anyone with him. Otherwise, he probably would not be able to catch up.
That would leave only Luo Feng and the other three behind, which would be extremely dangerous in the Longsuo Mountain Range.
Moreover, Luo Feng could not allow Ao Gu to take the Scarlet Mixed Copper Mother fragment and leave far away from him to pursue an enemy.
“Babata, is it alright that they escaped?” Luo Feng asked inwardly.
“It is fine! He does not know your identity information at all. Even if he did, you have no fixed residence. Even if you return, you would only go back to Earth. What is there to fear?” Babata said indifferently.
“The barefooted are not afraid of those wearing shoes. Right now, you are the barefooted one.”
