Chapter 221: Flying in the Sky
Chapter 221 Controlling the Sky
Early morning is the time when all things awaken. The rising sun on the horizon illuminates the earth, and the wind and waves from the sea bring in damp air. Dewdrops hang on the tender branches and leaves.
The small animal trotted through the forest, its hoofprints and deer tracks treading on the grass, shaking the dewdrops around it, and bringing a fresh scent to everything in sight.
Countless beautiful landscapes exist in sparsely populated areas, quietly growing without needing praise or poetic acclaim; all they require is to remain undisturbed.
"We have reached the target location and are setting up the encirclement formation."
"The otherworldly monster's whereabouts have been confirmed. It is hiding in an underground cave in the forest and has not moved at present."
The uninvited humans were clearly not there to admire the scenery; their conversation and the firepower they carried indicated this. They had dragged a cart full of boxes, leaving trails of grass in their wake.
The specially made staff was stuck in the ground, ready to be activated in advance for protection. The attack power of each otherworldly monster should not be underestimated, and humans have too many terrifying memories caused by them.
But this time, the Magicians' Guild will not back down. They have found a way to counter the firepower of the otherworldly monsters, and they intend to use this to annihilate them in one fell swoop. Humanity is prepared to pay the price.
"We will never have a peaceful day until we eliminate those otherworldly monsters. They are cunning, violent, untrustworthy, and unworthy of sympathy."
"Take out our weapons and aim them at the location of the otherworldly monster. Once we lure it out, unleash all our firepower! We can't hesitate for a second!"
The lead mage's attire was clearly different from the others; it wasn't the clothes of the Mage's Guild, but rather the military uniform from the interdimensional war ten years ago.
The military medals worn by the leader represent his identity, his serious attitude reflects his hatred for the enemy, and his left hand, which was injured and difficult to heal during the battle, is a constant reminder to the leader that he cannot have any pity for the otherworldly monsters.
"Report, all defensive formations have been set up."
"Alright, start it immediately. Call Yu Kong over and have him aim at the otherworldly monster and fire hard!"
At the commander's order, all the staffs were connected into one in a short time, forming a huge square barrier that completely sealed off the area inside, leaving the otherworldly monster with nowhere to escape.
The man who had taken his position in the formation prepared for battle, holding the core high above him and summoning a signal beam to shoot into the sky.
A monster magic circle was generated at the location where the beam of light dissipated. The monster "Soaring" slowly revealed its figure, established a connection with the Sky Master on the ground, and released the light circle to complete the piloting.
At the moment the summoning ritual was completed, a humanoid monster the size of a giant beast appeared in everyone's sight. Beneath its gray skin was a cylindrical body that resembled a human, but it had a beast-like face and a long tail, making it look like a monster.
As soon as Yu Kong finished controlling the aircraft, a beam of light shot out from its mouth, striking the crater above the ground below and causing a collapse, bringing the otherworldly monster to the fore.
The initial attack's hit effect was unknown, but Yu Kong remained vigilant and immediately summoned his wrist scorpion pincers, unleashing a barrage of powerful claw strikes on the collapsed ground.
"Is that the Sky-Soaring Technique? It's completely different from the Earth-Soaring Technique I've seen before! Not only can it fly, but its firepower is also astonishing!"
"You were transferred from out of town, right? It's not surprising that you've never seen Yu Kong before. Take this opportunity to watch from the sidelines. Our Yu Kong is on full offensive."
The locals' superior mentality made the magician want to put on a show and demonstrate the advantages of flying to outsiders. He didn't want to lose face when flying was compared to earth magic.
The thoughts of humans on the ground have little effect on the monsters. After finishing the first round of attacks, the pilot received news that the otherworldly monster was about to emerge from the ground. The pilot carried out the order, landed, and prepared for combat.
The monsters underground don't care about the crooked ways of humans. Since they dared to provoke them, they will never let these pests of the world off easily.
The grudge from the previous surprise attack by humans couldn't be satisfied in the last offensive, so let this fire burn with even more resentment.
Before the otherworldly monster could even appear, an explosion suddenly erupted from underground, sending sparks and rocks flying. The fireballs that scattered across the ground ignited upon landing, further fueling the monster's impending arrival.
King Pandon emerged from the underground pit, his two heads roaring with resentment. Having lost Grande's monstrous connection, King Pandon was now completely free, and his actions were no longer restricted.
After opening its eyes and looking around at the ground, King Pandon became even more arrogant after confirming that it was not an attack by Ultra Warriors. It never thought that the monsters in this world could be very powerful, and that a group of pets raised in a greenhouse were not worthy of challenging it.
King Panton stared at the monster before him with all four eyes. Heat emanated from his body as he eagerly awaited the wailing that would come from the creature.
With his double pincers gripping the frame, the rider assumed a defensive stance, conserving energy to avoid losing face in front of the instructors. With heroes from the interdimensional war watching the battle, he knew he had to excel if he wanted to advance further in the guild.
"Fire!"
The battles between monsters are not within the leader's consideration; as long as the otherworldly monsters enter the pre-arranged encirclement, that's when the guild will unleash its full firepower.
At the same moment, the magic circle carved into the rock and soil emitted light and shot water jets at King Panton's body. Each strike of the specially designed water jets was like a club hitting the monster's flesh.
Caught off guard, King Panton was suddenly pushed from all directions, losing his balance when he was caught off guard.
Yu Kong stepped forward and punched King Pang Dun away. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for. According to his investigation, this red otherworldly monster was a ranged fire-attribute monster. As long as he could disrupt its movements and create an opportunity to get close, Yu Kong could continue to suppress the otherworldly monster.
As his body was propelled by the water, a fist suddenly came flying at him. King Panton underestimated the human conspiracy, which caused him to suffer a setback first. He crashed into the magic array barrier before coming to a stop.
Before the attack was over, the staffs behind, having gathered their full power, were unleashed just as the otherworldly monster was about to crash into them. The barriers collectively electrified, striking the otherworldly monster's previously water-soaked skin.
The relentless attacks from the shadows caught King Panton off guard, and his eagerness to attack prevented him from noticing the hidden traps.
But King Panton no longer cared about any of that. He would repay humanity tenfold for all the suffering they had inflicted upon him. Created as a biological weapon, he was more capable of channeling his aggression than any other monster.
Seeing the otherworldly monster lying on the ground unable to get up, Yu Kong knew that his golden opportunity was about to arrive. If he could execute the otherworldly monster on the spot, it would definitely be a high-level achievement, and he would receive a greater reward than other riders.
Thinking of this, the charioteer's fists burned with heat. He rushed forward and kicked the otherworldly monster over. His scorpion pincers opened and clawed back and forth on the monster's body, enjoying the pleasure of tearing its skin and fantasizing about the joy of becoming rich and powerful afterward.
Scorpion pincers gripped Panton King's two heads, and the otherworldly monster's fire-breathing throat was now in his grasp, preventing it from breathing fire anymore. Seeing that he was about to achieve his goal, Yu Kong pushed the air cannon to its maximum power.
"Is Yu Kong's combat power really that strong? Not only can he suppress enemies from a distance, but he can also suppress them in close combat. His abilities are so comprehensive."
"Hehe, I've already witnessed how powerful Yu Kong is. If you want to know, I'll tell you when I'm in a good mood."
Humanity's good mood soared as the Sky Piercer was about to unleash his finishing blow. The Piercer was even more excited than the onlookers, waiting only for the air cannon to reach its maximum power so he could directly annihilate the otherworldly monster...
Suddenly, the eyes of King Panton, whose head was clamped, lit up and revealed a ferocious expression, pointing at Yu Kong's face. The overjoyed Yu Kong was so frightened by this shock that he lost control, and the air cannon malfunctioned and was forced to start firing.
King Panton's laser shot struck Yu Kong's chest, causing the cannon to deflect. Yu Kong's air cannon then blasted straight into the staff barrier, sending dust flying and the deafening roar echoing across the plains.
With a kick, King Pangdon, whose legs had gone limp with fear, looked at the gradually collapsing barrier around him and knew that his plan had succeeded.
