Take a break! All the stars for the only guide

Chapter 8 High-energy team battle
After the second deformation, the alien beast's strength and speed were greatly improved, and it became a giant beast from hell.

Its body had doubled in size, and was covered with scales as hard as iron. Every step it took left a deep and heavy mark on the ground, and the scarlet light in its eyes was filled with manic murderous intent.

Every sentry present knew that they could not leave.

This is a battle of life and death.

"Brother Jun! Take the little guide and go quickly!"

Leon was the first to step forward, his special ability was control.

He gathered all the stones, gravel, leaves, etc. on the ground to form a huge shield, blocking his teammates and trying to resist the fierce attack of the alien beast.

As Leon shouted, the other teammates also reacted and covered Li Chenjun and Lu Zhizhi as they retreated.

Lu Zhizhi saw Ali, a young sentinel wielding an invisible wind blade. She recognized him as the shy and quiet team member who prepared milk powder for her every day.

His wind-based abilities drew sharp streaks of light in the air, cutting through the muscles of the alien beast, but the effect was limited.

"Hurry up!!!!!" Ali shouted, and wind blades whizzed through the air.

Other team members also joined the battle. Some leaped into the air and threw down fireballs, while others flashed to the neck of the alien beast and inserted a dagger into its throat.

Everyone is trying their best, even if it is just to delay for one more second.

But a second-degree deformed fourth-level alien beast is no longer something that the B-level sentinels can deal with together.

The alien beast let out a violent roar that shook the entire sky like thunder, and even the air trembled slightly under this force.

It swung its tail, which was as thick as a pillar, and directly blew Leon away.

Leon's body rolled in the air, like an abandoned rag doll, and crashed heavily into the hard rock wall.

Blood gushed out of his mouth, staining the rocks red. The glaring red color appeared particularly bright in the sunlight.

The other sentinel was not to be outdone and quickly attacked from the side, trying to find the weakness of the alien beast. However, the alien beast reacted quickly, and its sharp claws slashed down like lightning, knocking him to the ground. His body rolled on the ground for several times, and finally curled up in pain, making a suppressed groan. Despite this, he still tried hard to prop up his body and tried to stand up again.

Ali still persisted, his wind blade scratched across the alien beast's leg, leaving a trace of blood.

Obviously, this action angered the big guy on the opposite side. Its sharp claws quickly counterattacked and scraped Ali's shoulder. The torn wound instantly dyed his clothes red, and blood flowed down his arm. Ali's face was pale, but he did not retreat. He gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and continued to release wind blades, trying to attract the attention of the alien beast and buy more time for his teammates.

Each attack was accompanied by a tragic price. The team members were covered with scars and their physical strength was rapidly depleted. However, no one chose to retreat. They all had the same belief in their hearts, that is, to protect Lu Zhizhi, even at the cost of their lives.

Li Chenjun held Lu Zhizhi and quickly shuttled through the rainforest. Behind him, the team members groaned in pain, and his jaw was stretched into a line.

"Go back, go back." Lu Zhizhi poked her little head out from his coat. Her voice was childish and weak, but she pointed anxiously in the direction behind him.

Li Chenjun did not respond and accelerated to break out, but Lu Zhizhi's small hand suddenly held the man's cheek.

“Not Forsaking Them”

Li Chenjun was stunned and looked at her with a complicated expression.

At this moment, a sharp howl resounded throughout the rainforest, which shocked his heart and made him slow down.

He held Lu Zhizhi in his arms and saw that her little face, like a little cat, was full of determination. Li Chenjun's eyes flashed with struggle, but Lu Zhizhi pressed her forehead against his brow.

Golden light flickered between their foreheads, and Li Chenjun felt his pounding heart being gently held by a pair of hands. The restlessness in his body also calmed down because of her.

Lu Zhizhi didn't say anything, but she had already conveyed her thoughts to him——

Don't abandon your companions.

With a guide, they are no longer fighting alone.

On the other side, Leon was strangled by the alien beast's tentacles. His face turned pale due to lack of oxygen and his consciousness was gradually becoming blurred.

He closed his eyes in despair, clutching his name tag tightly in his hand.

It was the identification badge of each sentinel, symbolizing their honor and faith. On the battlefield, it was unrealistic for their companions to take away the bodies, so the sentinels tacitly took away the name tags of their fallen companions and buried them to comfort the dead souls.

At this desperate moment, the entire battlefield was suddenly shaken by an invisible momentum, as if even the air was stagnant.

Before anyone arrived, thick black magma rolled and spread in the rainforest, rushing over like a wave.

"It's Jun's special ability! He's back!"

When Ali saw the highly corrosive magma, he turned around suddenly and saw Li Chenjun's black uniform fluttering in the wind, as if he was coming in the night.

Every step the man took was like that of an Asura from hell, and the Buddhist beads on his wrist emitted a sinister black aura.

He released all the energy in his body in an instant. Even the sentinel felt the pressure and couldn't help trembling.

"Back off."

Li Chenjun's low voice echoed in the rainforest, and all the team members obediently stepped back a few steps.

A black flame pattern appeared between his eyebrows. He spread his arms, and sticky and oppressive black water spread out from under his feet, corroding everything on the ground at a very fast speed. The black magma was like hellfire, carrying an endless breath of destruction.

Wherever the magma passed, the scales of the alien beast were quickly corroded, and it made a sharp hissing sound. The alien beast roared in pain, and its tentacles weakly let go of Leon.

At the same time, Lu Zhizhi gently closed her eyes, clasped her small hands together in front of her chest, and the sunlight penetrated the leaves and shone a beam of light on her. She looked focused, as if she was in an endless pure land.

As the energy spread, Lu Zhizhi's body began to radiate warm golden light. In the originally dim rain forest, Lu Zhizhi's body seemed to have its own soft focus.

The purified energy slowly flowed out from her fingertips like a trickle, transforming into countless tiny points of light. These points of light danced lightly in the air, like countless fireflies dancing in the night sky, flying towards every injured sentinel with holy light.

The light spots gently fell on the sentinels' wounds, and everyone was surprised to find that the pain in their bodies was quickly subsiding, their strength was recovering quickly, and the despair was also dispelled by the light, and was replaced by excitement from the bottom of their hearts.

They are no longer fighting alone, they have a way home, a direction, and people to protect.

The alien beast was defeated step by step under Li Chenjun's supernatural power. It let out a deafening roar before dying, and it used up its last bit of energy to launch a fatal attack.

Leon was the first to notice it. His eyes were bloodshot and his voice was so strong that it was torn—

"Brother Jun, come back quickly! It's going to self-destruct!"
