Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland.

When Qin saw the same long cleaver appear in Lu Meng's hand, his mind buzzed, as if he had confirmed something incredible.

As the watcher in charge of the entire Southern Technology Hunters, he had certainly collected information and intelligence on this war-level newcomer, but more information was concentrated after he became famous.

Firstly, the early activities in Sikun Town were covered up by Bayan. Needless to say, this chief advisor's domestic affairs skills were excellent. He also fulfilled his original agreement to conceal the identity of the Nameless Person and tried his best not to reveal any clues.

When he arrived in Shan, the white-haired young man was killed mainly with the inscribed blade he got from the swamp, which belonged to the military sword series. For the world, the story of the sword and the hero is much more talked about and mentioned more happily.

Just like Lu Meng's unarmed fighting skills, when he really used them, he was actually sparring with the anti-slavers. Neither Jaeger nor Ronin Diu could leak his information, so it always worked wonders.

And unlike other war-level warriors on the mainland, there seemed to be an unusually large number of legends and ballads about this Lu Beiyou. The versions were complicated and there were many different opinions. Among them, there was even a story about a fairy in the lake giving him a sword, a heaven-given inscribed blade, and being wanted by various kingdoms for escaping the siege... For Qin, who was well versed in the operation of the propaganda machine, he naturally did not care.

But this has objectively also caused the credibility of many messages to be greatly reduced, making them difficult to distinguish.

Like a layer of fog.

The more famous it is, the further it is from the truth.

Of these, only one was mentioned.

“Impossible…” Qin’s voice was drowned in the wind and rain. It was not that he did not believe the intelligence, but that he did not believe what he had seen and experienced: If the inscribed blade used by Lu Beiyou was not actually his most proficient weapon, didn’t this mean that… the opponent was able to fight against his full strength until now with only a secondary weapon?

It reminded him of someone.

Heaven's will is to benefit and be righteous.

The United City general usually wears the most common samurai sword in the empire, which he also made himself. It is elegant and luxurious. He also wears this outfit when sparring with Qin.

But after witnessing the other party's full strength, he knew that was not the case.

Master all kinds of weapons!

However, Tian Xinli was a famous person in the previous generation. He guarded the South United City for almost a lifetime. Lu Beiyou... How many years had it been since he was promoted to the combat level?
So, it's impossible!
Neither common sense, experience, nor Qin's own pride allowed him to accept such a fact. The watchman's feet were empty, and the ship's side railing he stepped on instantly collapsed like mud. The strong wind blew his long hair apart, and he rushed straight upwards.

The muscles in the arm grew and healed quickly, and the blood flow washed away the broken bones and dissolved them in the body. With just the strong physique and muscles, the broken arm was fixed in place.

Qin dragged up the cleaver.

A meteor slid across the deck!
boom!
With a loud bang, the last two ropes pulling the warship, although equally strong, could no longer withstand all of their force and broke in mid-air due to his impact.

The ironclad warship scraped against the rock wall.

Reef crash.

The falling direction was opposite to Qin's. The entire deck had become vertical at ninety degrees, which shortened the distance between him and Lu Meng even faster.

At this time, Lu Meng had just pulled out the long cleaver that was more than a person's height.

He clasped his hands alternately.

This forced Lu Meng to let go of the railing. With nowhere to gain leverage, his whole body naturally fell downwards, but at the same speed as the Reef, and it seemed that there was no change.

Compared with Qin's frenzy, he didn't even seem to have any intention of swinging his sword, but was just waiting for the other party to arrive.

Mystifying—Qin sneered.

This made him even more convinced that the young man was just bluffing at the last moment.

If a person's accumulation is still shallow, then changing any path midway will not cost too much. You should know that he did not originally use the long cleaver, but decided to specialize in it after searching for the precious weapon of Blade 2 in the ruins. Their team suffered a lot of casualties for it.

By the way...that person also advised me.

Facts have proved that Qin was right. It was precisely because of it and his early decision that he was able to keep up with others in the war.

Rather than just being a watcher.

Even a second blade can prompt people to make such a decision, let alone a magical weapon like the Ming Blade?
Even a well-informed technology hunter would hesitate and change his path because of this, let alone you, a grassroots person who comes from a wild background?

A feeling of weightlessness came over them, and the surrounding space scenery quickly changed and stretched, with countless streamlines blurring into one piece. Whether it was Qin or Lu Meng, they could only see each other's figures in their sight.

Qin, needless to say, had not yet revealed his full strength in his charge.

It was Lu Meng. He also stepped on the deck and his speed suddenly increased, instantly exceeding the falling speed of the Reef.

Also faced Qin's blade.

Only then did he turn his hands over and push his cleaver forward.

But it was too late - Qin accurately calculated that the opponent's weapon was within the range of his own sword force, and they would collide exactly.

Head-to-head!
And as mentioned before, with such ordinary weapons as the opponent's, even if they are of the same level, they will be cut off by himself at the moment of contact.

Keng.

The blades meet.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and then violent sparks burst out from the edge of Lu Meng's blade.

The hot iron chips flew out and burned out before they hit the ground. The rain had no time to put them out - because the rain all around had already been blown away by the strong wind caused by the collision between the two men.

However, they were enough to illuminate Qin's vision.

He was facing the sky and saw the rainstorm and dark clouds in the depression lagoon, and because of the reflection of iron filings in Lu Meng's eyes, it looked like sparks were burning in this person's eyes.

But at this moment, Qin suddenly heard some noise in his ears.

That was the sound of falling into the water.

How could it be? Although the Reef was falling, they were still at least 180 meters away from the underground river under the platform...

In a flash, a flash of inspiration came to my mind.

That's the Raven...

Captured by the Reef, the Raven is attached below!
The people above jumped into the water.

Falling directly down is undoubtedly dangerous, but starting from the platform of Community No. 2, Lu Meng cut the rope for the first time, let it fall, and made an emergency landing for a distance; then he was captured by the Reef, stranded in mid-air, and now he is falling for the second time.

Compared to its initial position, it has been shortened by at least two-thirds.

You know, the high diving limit for well-trained athletes is only 20 to 30 meters. Such a height is quite dangerous for drifters... but it is not unbearable!

"You always judge others by yourself..." The two weapons collided violently. Lu Meng's long cleaver was forged by him himself, and its quality reached the MK3 improved model. It was already a very remarkable weapon in the secular world. If it were a general auction, it would be enough to be the finale of the collection and attract a lot of fans... But compared with the works of the Blade Walkers, it is still far inferior. Although the two weapons are of the same shape, it is more like Qin's weapon is cutting it in half rather than in a stalemate.

The bursting sparks were the blood it was bleeding. As a weapon, its vitality was being depleted until it was on the verge of death. However, among the two people illuminated by the sparks, it was Qin who was panicking!
“So, you will underestimate other people’s courage!”

Those drifters who boarded the Raven had already accepted the prospect of death. Even though they were stranded on the ship and about to fall in mid-air, they still obeyed Chad's orders, maintained order, and did not panic or retreat.

At the same time, they also believe in Lu Meng.

Believe in the first fire that burned from the nameless city far away to the lagoon in the depression!

The first step was to let Qin judge that the Raven was trying to escape, and Lu Meng was covering for them, so they sank into the drilling rig and fired artillery, destroying nearly half of the hull and reducing the weight of the cargo ship. At the same time, the fishing rope provided a buffer for the fall.

They themselves were also trapped in mid-air due to their request to the mechanic.

The second step was to make Qin "recognize" his mistake and think that he could not threaten his fellow man with the Raven, so he quickly reflected and changed his strategy and ignored the cargo ship.

Finally, both ships fell.

For Qin, who holds the belief that he must oppose whatever the enemy admires, he has never been able to grasp Lu Meng's fundamental purpose, and the rhythm of the battlefield is always in the hands of this young man.

What a spare energy this is!
The Raven certainly did not want to escape. Even if they were lucky enough to leave through the underground river, the Lagoon could easily catch up with them.

Lu Meng was not covering for him; rather, the entire downtown area's actions against the cargo ship were his real cover.

his purpose.

It's the Watcher himself!
A blazing white light flashed, and for an instant it was like the sun breaking through the dark clouds in the sky, but it was Lu Meng's black gold sword that was completely cut off.

Half of the blade flew out.

However, it was Qin who retreated violently.

Rather, after figuring it all out, the watcher wanted to withdraw halfway, but it was his weapon that cut into Lu Meng's broken knife, which also got him stuck.

However, it's too late.

Lu Meng leaned over it.

He held the hilt tightly in his hand. Even though it had been cut in half, the black gold blade was still nearly one meter long, equivalent to an ordinary sword.

The irregularity of the broken sword and the change in the center of gravity are so great that even the most skilled swordsman may not be able to adjust to it in an instant.

But Lu Meng is different.

The cut of the broken knife chased on Qin's weapon, rubbing against it until it turned red and sparks flew. In his eyes, there was only the knife light that was getting closer and closer.

It's a level higher than mine.

【Machete: 84】

Suppress the world.

With a loud roar, the raindrops shattered into white mist, and even the accumulated water flowed backwards.

The bow of the Reef.

Break it directly in mid-air.

Led by Chad, the drifters who fell into the water did not stop for a moment. Some of them even endured the pain of broken bones, and swam towards the bottom of the deep lake by swinging their limbs, and then dispersed in all directions.

Huang Xiang subconsciously followed their movements. He used to be a good swimmer, but his legs felt extremely heavy as soon as he swung them. The drifter then remembered that he had replaced his legs with mechanical prostheses.

I can't swim at all.

He spit out a few bubbles, but it had no effect because Huang Xiang was dragged by his legs and fell straight down faster than other people diving.

Without any effort, he looked up.

Although the water is turbid, a ray of light should be able to dimly see through it.

But this moment.

A dark cloud loomed over their heads, gradually expanding from far away to near.

And then fell.

It was the Raven they had just jumped away from.

The sound of the cargo ship hitting the water was transmitted through the deep water to everyone's eardrums, dull and stinging, and a greater impact followed.

Fortunately, the drifters acted early enough and were far enough away from the surface, so the deep water provided a buffer, and apart from the violent shaking, there were no greater or more serious impacts.

But they did not stop at all, instead they moved even harder to disperse.

Like shrimps and fish swimming at the bottom of the water.

The next moment, the Reef dropped from the sky. The ironclad ship was like a fierce battle axe. It directly caught up with the Raven that had entered the water first, and smashed it hard, completely smashing the already dilapidated wooden ship into pieces.

At the same time, huge waves were set off.

It was like the sky was falling.

The captain and the adjutant of the Viper were chatting, but they were both startled by the sound of someone falling into the water.

They had already gone deep into the underground river, but the sound just now was so loud that it was echoing everywhere, like the roar of an angry dragon.

It was as if the town of Lowland Lagoon itself was roaring.

The two of them couldn't help but look back at the same time, and the guards on the ship and the thugs in the lower city were also confused.

What happened to the drilling direction?
"That is..." At this time, a man raised his hand tremblingly and pointed to the end of the dark river, the passage they came from.

I saw the turbid lake water with white spots, and the waves as high as a floor rushing towards me.

"Drop anchor and fill the hold!" the captain yelled, "Quick--"

His reaction was extremely quick, but the underground river was originally cramped and narrow. It was a miracle that it could barely accommodate the cargo ship and the future voyage of the Reef. The sudden rise in the water level at this moment was like a suddenly shrinking torrent, rushing straight at him.

In an instant, they were all submerged.
