Chapter 281: The Web of Redemption Woven by the Source Sand
Without hiding his strength, Long Tao took the lead and summoned the prehistoric beast that Lin Yuan had seen at the Radiant Moon Palace, the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus.
When Long Tao summoned it, it immediately inspired the fighting spirit of the spirit qi professionals present. The eyes of these spirit qi professionals who had thought that disaster would fall upon them shone with hope.
The Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus, a name of the prehistoric era, had always been Long Tao’s signature fey. However, Lin Yuan did not know whether Long Tao had other trump cards other than this Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus.
The Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus was still at Platinum X/Fantasy III.
Clearly, Long Tao was still stuck at being a B-rank spirit qi professional and had yet to break through to become an A-rank spirit qi professional.
If he broke through to the A-rank, this Platinum X/Fantasy III Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus could break through to Diamond. At that time, Long Tao could be called a king-class expert.
Given his current strength, his combat power was already more astounding than some ordinary king-class experts. It was very hard for a Fantasy Breed fey to reach Fantasy III.
Zhao Xiaochun and Fang Duoduo also summoned their feys and attacked the demons that rushed over. Chen Hongfeng did not go forward but summoned his contracted Gold fey, the Huge-Tailed Swamp Lizard, at the back. He commanded it to use the swamp to control and deal magic damage to the demon army.
Lin Yuan finally knew why Zhao Xiaochun’s previous title in the Radiance Hundred Sequence was Critical Needle Girl.
Her fey was a Platinum V/Fantasy II Cold Needle Sea Urchin, a fey that could stack output. While such a fey had extreme output, its defense was almost at rock bottom among Platinum feys. It could even be described as being as brittle as paper.
When Shi Xu saw Zhao Xiaochun summon out the Platinum V/Fantasy II Cold Needle Sea Urchin, he exclaimed, “This black-hearted maggot Zhao Xiaochun’s signature Cold Needle Sea Urchin is actually at Fantasy II. Did she not invest her resources into her trump card all this time?”
Shi Xu shook his head. Given his understanding of her, her trump card had probably become even stronger. It seemed that Zhao Xiaochun would move on the ranking of the Radiance Hundred Sequence this year or next year.
Based on her stance, she should be intending to get into the top ten!
Although Zhao Xiaochun was a glutton, bad-hearted, and had a foul mouth, Shi Xu also had to sigh at her talent that could be considered top-notch even in the Radiance Hundred.
Shi Xu then glanced at Lin Yuan, who was standing beside him. He was speechless. Whose talents could be compared to this youth standing next to him at this age?
If he were to really compare, there would only be that girl from Redbud City who was rumored on Star Web to have a Bronze Fantasy Breed fey.
Shi Xu shook his head and let his Platinum IV/Fantasy I Silent Thunder Armored Crocodile use its Platinum ability, Hundred Armor Demonstration.
A layer of armor formed by the thunder element appeared on the feys of those adventurers who rushed forward to fight the sea of demons, as well as Long Tao, Zhao Xiaochun, and Fang Duoduo. This armor even carried a fine thunder pattern.
After putting on these hundreds of Rapid Thunder Armor pieces, Shi Xu’s expression turned solemn because the Silent Thunder Armored Crocodile could only release a hundred pieces of Rapid Thunder Armor.
Although this was considered a lot for defense spirit qi professionals, there were simply too many adventurers, and Shi Xu was only able to take care of over a hundred of them.
But when the demon army was about to meet the human adventurers, Shi Xu was surprised to find that whenever the demons were going to attack the human adventurers, and these human adventurers could not resist, a wisp of gravel would come up from the ground to block the demons’ attack.
Even if the gravel was not enough to completely block the demons’ attack, it could also minimize the damage caused.
Many adventurers noticed this and could not help but put their attention at the back of the team. There stood a silver-masked youth who was releasing spirit qi to the strange plant and was not very verbal but aloof.
They focused on Long Tao, Fang Duoduo, Zhao Xiaochun, and Shi Xu previously. These four Radiance Hundred Sequence members upheld the hopes of these adventurers in a desperate situation.
But now, when many people saw this strange plant, a name flashed through their minds—Black.
Suppose Shi Xu’s Thunder Armor could allow the high-ranking adventurers to attack without worries and the need to watch out for the attacks. In that case, Black manipulating the gravel to block the demons’ attack was akin to redemption.
It was the redemption of the lives of the low-ranking adventurers who were fighting for survival in this havoc of the demons.
Lin Yuan commanded Red Thorn to release a large number of spores from its spore cavity. When these spores rooted on the huge number of demons’ flesh, Red Thorn did not let all these spores hatch, however.
Instead, it only let one spore fully absorb the huge amount of energy in the flesh and evolve into a ramet with its grade raised to the limit of a ramet. Then, it let the ramet devour the demons’ flesh on the battlefield.
Whenever a demon shattered a ramet, Red Thorn would manipulate another spore to hatch next to it. Red Thorn had previously taken the path of spawning both child ramets and ramets in huge quantities.
Based on the battle situation this time, Lin Yuan had Red Thorn switch to the elite route. Although ramets in the sea of flowers had become fewer, they could devour the energy in the demons’ flesh without restraint.
Otherwise, if the young child ramet devoured the flesh of these Class 3 abyss demons that were akin to Gold feys, it would be destroyed by the burning characteristics in the flesh.
Only these pinnacle Elite ramets could devour these Class 3 abyss demons’ flesh without withering due to the burning characteristics in it.
Each bunch of gravel that Lin Yuan activated was akin to saving the life of a low-ranking adventurer. This bunch of gravel built a web of life. Even though some adventurers still fell to the ground under the demon army’s attack, this number had been minimized.
Among these adventurers, there were also many healing-type spirit qi professionals. Squads without a healing-type spirit qi professional would not come to this controlled Class 3 abyss dimensional rift to train.
Because the fine sand had resisted the attacks, even if those low-ranking adventurers were seriously injured, they could still recover under the treatment of healing-type spirit qi professionals.
