Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 17 Cleaning Up, Appetizers
In the early morning, it was just dawn.

In the small building, Qin Ming put on his combat uniform and began to prepare combat equipment.

Six throwing knives were pinned on the outer thighs of the trousers, and the rest were placed in the warrior's backpack.

Qin Ming inserted the communication device on his shoulder, put on the alloy combat boots, and after making sure that there was no problem, he held up the 2.8-meter-long Broken Army Halberd, moved his body, and then his whole body was suspended in the air.

His combat uniform and backpack are specially made for psychics, with metal plates embedded in key positions.

It allows it to fly directly without stepping on a shield or the like, and can also move its body through telekinesis during battle to avoid monster attacks.

Relying on this method, Qin Ming's body movement skills barely reached the subtle level.

After landing on the ground, Qin Ming checked all the items in the backpack again to make sure nothing was left out, then he entered the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

[Banner Master: Qin Ming (Advanced Warrior-level Warrior, Intermediate General-level Spiritual Master)]

[Soul: 13650/100000 (Beast Soldiers 13608, Beast Generals 42)]

[Main Soul: 0/1]

[Blood and Flesh Essence: 212/100000]

After half a month of practice, Qin Ming's strength has improved significantly.

With the continuous supply of flesh and blood essence and soul crystals, the punching strength can be steadily increased by almost 200kg every day, and the mental power is improved simultaneously.

During the test yesterday, the punching force reached 6428kg and the speed was 68.3m/s!

This terrifying speed of improvement silenced everyone else in the team. It was too exaggerated.

As he continued to absorb the blood and flesh crystals, Qin Ming could clearly sense that his control over his body was becoming more and more refined, the time he spent cultivating genetic energy was being extended, and even practicing the "Pojun Ji" was becoming more and more handy.

This undoubtedly shows that Qin Ming's potential is constantly improving.

"Perhaps, when I absorb enough blood and flesh essence in the future, my life level will be elevated."

After feeling the power in his body, Qin Ming said silently in his heart.

Why are star beasts like the golden-horned beast and special life forms in the universe so powerful?

The most important reason is that their life level is extremely high! The higher the life level, the stronger the body, and the stronger the affinity for the law!
Thinking in his heart, Qin Ming pushed open the door of the room.

Of course, it’s too early to do this. It’s not easy to improve the level of life. The most important thing right now is to complete the mission.

"Today, October 28, 2055, is my first mission into the wilderness. Furthermore, my first mission is to hunt monsters in City 003, clearing the way for the army in the rear. It's truly exciting!"

When Qin Ming opened the door, he saw Zhang Yan, also fully armed, holding a long-handled war hammer in his hand and rushing towards the martial arts training hall.

"Let's go, Qin Ming, let's gather."

"Okay, Brother Zhang."

The two of them walked together to the martial arts training hall. When they arrived, everyone except team leader Lu Haochuan had already arrived.

Qin Ming's attention was immediately attracted by Xiao Heng. As a hot weapons warrior, he brought the most things, three large boxes.

On top of one of the large iron boxes was a row of miniature individual missiles. In addition, there were drones, heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, a large number of special bullets, and so on.

"Everyone's here, ready to go! We're leaving a day earlier than the main group, with the goal of killing all the monsters along the way!

Make sure the rear convoy passes!

any questions? "

Lu Haochuan walked in and glanced at everyone.

"Guarantee to complete the task!" X5
"Very good, ready to go!"

Without any unnecessary nonsense, Zhang Yan and Yue Shan took the initiative to walk to Xiao Heng's side, helped him carry a large box, and the group walked outside.

Unlike the past, War Base No. 003 has also become active.

Near the rear exit of the base, Qin Ming saw a large number of soldiers gathering on a playground, loading large military trucks with supplies.

The carrying capacity of this super-large truck, which is 10 meters high and over 40 meters long, is amazing.

In a camp next to the heavy trucks, tanks, armored vehicles, fighter planes, etc. were pulled out, flashing coldly in the sun.

A large number of heavy artillery and rocket launchers turned their muzzles and aimed towards the direction of City 003.

Most warriors don't dare to drive in the wilderness because the movement of the vehicle will attract a large number of monsters to attack.

The military didn't have this concern. When the group reached the base's main gate, it slowly opened amidst a mechanical roar, and the soldiers standing guard and patrolling nearby saluted in unison.

They knew why the special forces were leaving at this moment.

If these elite special forces were not there to clean up, the army would have suffered heavy casualties if it had passed through City 003 directly.

Relying on modern weapons, they are able to inflict damage to the monsters.

However, the complex environment in the city makes it easy for monsters to lurk and approach. Once they get close, even armored vehicles and tanks cannot withstand the monsters' attacks.

As soon as he walked out of the base, Qin Ming saw from afar a large area of ​​city ruins shrouded in fog. The roar of monsters could be heard from afar, and there were hundreds of flying monsters circling in the sky.

City 003 was one of the most prosperous cities before the Great Nirvana. It had almost the most numerous buildings in Asia and was close to the ocean.

Because of the military raids, monsters dared not wander in the wilderness and could only hide in cities.

This has caused the number of monsters in the city to reach an astonishing number. There are many lord-level monsters here, and there are even monsters beyond the lord level entrenched here!

Anyone who is not a military officer dares to enter City 003, even in the suburbs, must be led by a powerful general.

In the team, Ling Qianye and Zhang Yan naturally walked to the front, while Yue Shan lagged behind and walked to the back of the team, guarding Xiao Heng and Qin Ming, who were good at thermal weapons, in the center.

"Qin Ming, logically speaking, since this is your first mission, you should be asked to do some simple tasks to get used to it, rather than going straight into City 003.

But with your strength, you are not inferior to Zhang Yan and Qian Ye.

All that is missing is some practical experience.

So, you will be the one to clean up first and get used to the situation.

The surrounding area has been cleared many times, so the monsters won't be too strong."

Lu Haochuan and Qin Ming, holding spears, walked side by side and gave orders.

"Don't worry, Captain. I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

Qin Ming nodded and said seriously.

"Don't be so nervous, relax. We have walked this road many times. It follows the edge of the river and does not enter the core area.

It's not just us who are carrying out the mission, there are also two special forces teams, the Flying Eagle and the Jiaolong.

If you really encounter a crisis, you can call for support immediately.

If you encounter a large herd of beasts, you can also call in artillery fire.

You are a psychic, and if things really get tough, you can still fly away."

Lu Haochuan looked at Qin Ming with a smile.

"it is good!"

Looking at the smiling Lu Haochuan, Qin Ming had a bad feeling in his heart for some reason.

Everyone in the team was a general-level warrior, and they quickly walked several miles into the city area.

“Roar~~” “Awoo~~” “

A deafening roar came from afar, and dozens of large bird monsters with a wingspan of seven or eight meters in the sky seemed to be targeting them.

But the group had no intention of dodging and walked in the middle of the road with a swagger.

Normal warriors who go hunting in the city usually lurk cautiously, looking for high-value monsters.

But Qin Ming and the others are different. Their mission is to open the way.

What does it mean to open a circuit?
All monsters within sight must die!
Only in this way can we avoid fighting as much as possible when the rear large forces set out.

It is called clearing the way, but it should actually be called cleaning.

This is the role of elite special forces.

brush!brush!brush!
Ling Qianye, who was leading the way in front, pedaled continuously and rushed up the half-collapsed seven-story building, and the people behind him followed.

Standing on the rooftop, Qin Ming looked down.

In the ruins of the city, hundreds of monsters appeared in the middle of the road, and there were seven or eight beast generals alone.

"Qin Ming, come on! This is your appetizer."
