Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 743 Battle of the Wasteland
Thick dark clouds covered the sky, making the entire wasteland look even more dead.

The white lightning pushed away the dark clouds, and the rain in the sky was much weaker than that in the city that never sleeps.Especially in this sweltering terrain, even the remaining rain seems to be warmed up.

In such an environment, it is easy to feel anxious.

"Cough cough..."

While walking forward, Kong Zhe suddenly staggered, and couldn't help but coughed while rubbing his chest.

Obviously the battle just now was not so enjoyable.

That ability user called Puppet Master was much stronger than he expected.At this moment, although he looks uninjured on the outside, the actual wear and tear is far beyond imagination.

He didn't know what level this puppet master was in the organization, but in short, the battle with the puppet master refreshed his understanding of the combat effectiveness of capable people.

The combat power of high-level ability users is actually no less than that of awakened people of the same level.

Before, he always believed that the two biggest flaws of ability users, first, is that they do not have the physical strength that increases with the level like awakened people.No matter how powerful their abilities were, their bodies were still at the level of ordinary humans, and they were extremely fragile in battle.Awakened people can have quantitative values ​​such as defense and blood volume. As long as the values ​​do not return to zero, they can continue to fight.

The second is that a person with an ability can only have one type of ability. This is a considerable limitation. Once they encounter a restraint ability, they will easily become helpless.

However, after the battle just now, he gradually began to realize it.These two restrictions are actually for low-level ability users.

Once the ability user reaches an advanced level, or even a mutant level, these two restrictions will be immediately eliminated to the greatest extent.

Compared with the awakened whose combat power can be directly quantified, the potential of capable users is almost unlimited.

In the process of continuously developing abilities, as they become familiar with their own abilities, ability users will naturally master the method of using abilities to arm their bodies.

At this point, each ability may be used in a different way, but the final effect is often no less than the pure blood accumulation of the awakened person.

Kong Zhe gradually realized that perhaps the most important difference between high-level ability users and low-level ability users is not whether their attack power is stronger or weaker, but whether they have learned to use abilities to protect themselves, and eliminate the greatest ability of this ability person. weakness.

In addition, once the level of mutation ability is further reached, the range of abilities developed by the ability user will be qualitatively improved.The original ability to use a small class is extended to use the entire category.

In this case, it is much more difficult to find a special restraint ability.

To sum up, it is very difficult for an ability user to improve their combat effectiveness, but their potential is almost unlimited.It depends on how far each ability user can develop their abilities.

And the puppet master just now, at least in the field of puppets, has definitely reached the point of proficiency.

When Kong Zhe fought against him, it was as if this person had stepped out of hell, holding the boundary between life and death in his hands, and he could switch between living and dead things at will.

In the end, only a wound was left on the man's body, but was he really killed by Kong Zhe?

not really.In fact, from the very beginning of the battle, Kong Zhe's target has always been his body. He has been hit no less than a hundred times in the battle, but every time he stabbed his body, he would turn into a puppet in the next second.

Until the last time when he hit him, Kong Zhe was still not sure whether he stabbed his body.

This battle is the most tragic one he has experienced so far.After such an arduous battle, not to mention star power and magic power, it is not so easy to recover from the physical strength and energy consumed.

Kong Zhe shook his head and exhaled.Raising his head again, his footsteps have become firm again.

He knew very well that the previous game was just an appetizer at best.

Next, is the real battle.

"Chirp?"

Beside him, Xiaohuo, who had been following him step by step, let out a cry of grievance at this moment, and when he looked at him, there was human worry in his eyes.

As a summoned beast connected by blood, Xiaohuo is very aware of the current master's weakness.

"Don't worry, I'm fine..."

Kong Zhe smiled lightly, and reached out to touch the feathers on top of its head.

"Xiaohuo, there is still a big battle coming up, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. How about it, are you afraid?"

"Chirp!"

Xiao Huo shook his head hastily, as if eager to express his loyalty, he flapped his wings excitedly.

The fiery red air flow scattered around with its movements, and the temperature in the entire wasteland seemed to be much higher in an instant.

"yes……"

Sensing what Xiao Huo wanted to express, Kong Zhe couldn't help smiling and shaking his head: "This battle is not as simple as you think... Later, if you really have to, remember, don't force yourself , Protecting your own life is the most important thing at all times."

"Chirp..."

Xiao Huo tilted his head in doubt, unable to understand what the master meant for a while.

You must know that it is a phoenix. The phoenix will not really die, so why should she protect her life?
Kong Zhe didn't explain more, and stepped out again, seemingly aimlessly walking in the sand.And Xiao Huo ran two steps forward, walking side by side with him.

One person and one phoenix wandered in the boundless sand step by step.

Until the sun hiding behind the clouds turned into sunset and the sky was full of red clouds, Kong Zhe finally stopped in a sand dune.

He didn't say a word, just looked ahead calmly.

Beside him, Xiao Huo was already crawling on his knees, and began to make a threatening sound of grunting.

At this moment, opposite them, about tens of meters away, through the afterglow of the setting sun, there is a group of menacing figures standing.

Holding the guqin, a girl with an expressionless face.

Squatting on the ground, holding a scythe, looking at him with a smile on his face.

A man with a broad body and covered in iron armor.

A woman with chains wrapped around her arms.

A monk in a blue cassock holding a Zen staff.

And standing in the center, there are two star kings, one big and one small.

In addition, there is Lei Yun who is beside the two of them.He was crossing his chest with one hand, with a cigarette in his mouth, his eyes stayed on Kong Zhe for a moment, then moved away, looking at the sky, wondering what he was thinking.

The rain has stopped unknowingly. In this wind-eroded depression, due to the blowing of strong winds for thousands of years, it is full of isolated and protruding honeycomb-shaped rocks.

The strong wind is mixed with gravel, blowing past the confronting crowd on both sides, making a whirring sound, as if playing a piece of time music.

"So, what's the point of running so far?"

On the opposite side, the King of Aquarius sneered, and took a step forward. His voice seemed to be blessed, piercing through the obstruction of the wind, and echoing in the depression.

"Or, is this place the burial place you chose for yourself?"

The King of Aquarius rubbed his chin and looked at the lifeless environment around him, and suddenly nodded seriously: "Well, you have a good vision, this place is indeed very suitable for you."

Kong Zhe was unmoved by this man's mocking words, he raised his head and swept these people one by one.

"Seven people..."

Kong Zhe let out a long breath: "Then, you should be ready!"

"What to prepare?"

"Of course I am preparing to be buried here!"

As soon as the words fell, Kong Zhe glared at them suddenly, with murderous intent emerging from him.As soon as he raised his wrist, the Apocalypse Sword appeared in his hand.

"Oh? As expected of being the king of all kings, you really have courage!"

The King of Aquarius smiled casually: "There are so many people attacking you alone, and we are all thinking about whether we should capture you alive, but in the end, it's fine if you don't run away, but you are still thinking about killing yourself... Tsk tsk, everyone, look Come on, we are really underestimated!"

Kong Zhe mentioned seven people, but in fact, there were obviously eight people standing opposite. However, in this tense moment before the war, no one has time to care about such details.

"However, Boss, this person seems to be inconsistent with the inferred information just now, right?"

The black-scythe boy came out more and more, touched his chin, pointed to Kong Zhe suddenly, and asked the people behind him: "Isn't this person seriously injured? But it can't be seen at all now!"

"Well, it is indeed an amazing recovery ability..."

The monk in Tsing Yi nodded in agreement, took a few steps forward leaning on his Zen stick, his eyes moved up and down on Kong Zhe for a few times, and suddenly his voice changed, and he pointed out: "However, many things are often not like It looks so simple on the outside, although this benefactor looks alive and well now, who knows if he has already done it with a strong outsider?"

"Cuckoo..."

Xiao Huo couldn't help stepping on his paws, he snorted two streams of hot air from his nose, and let out bursts of threatening sounds from his mouth.Seeing a group of people on the opposite side start discussing the master face to face without any scruples, it immediately felt anxious.

Kong Zhe touched its nose and comforted it.Then he turned his gaze to the monk and said with a sneer, "Oh? Then do you want to try it first?"

"Hehe, the benefactor is joking! The poor monk has no plans to do anything for the time being."

The monk bowed his head and saluted Kong Zhe with one hand.

"Of course, don't misunderstand the benefactor. You may look at the poor monk's appearance and feel that there is no threat, but it is not. In fact, the poor monk's output of thieves is the absolute core of this team."

Kong Zhe was noncommittal.This person looks decent on the outside, but his performance in speech is really not hooked up to a monk, saying this deliberately is more like confusing himself.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense! Whether it's done in the outer wall or not, we will know when we fight later."

The King of Taurus spoke suddenly, interrupting the others with a loud voice.

He first frowned and looked at Kong Zhe, and then looked at several members of the hunting team.

"Everyone, don't be careless. This person is not an ordinary awakened person, but a king, and he is still at the top of the king. He is not comparable to your previous opponents!"

Then, he looked at the king of water bottle again, and said seriously: "Wen Yao, you are the same. Make all the preparations you need to do."

"for example?"

The king of water bottles spread his hands.

"Call Qianqiu here first!"

"Huh? Don't be so careful, right?"

The king of water bottle stared, very surprised.

The 'Qianqiu' he was referring to was none other than the last of the three kings - the Queen of Maidens.
