All-out: Starting with the Awakening Special Operations Unit, search, attack, and withdrawal.

"Explosive Flame!"

"boom!"

Southeast cliff top intersection.

In the dense jungle, firelight, wielded by a pioneer waving his magic staff, instantly engulfed the lizardman warriors who had just charged from the watchtower.

The massive explosion shook the ground and triggered even more intense alarm bells in the direction of the core area.

"Hurry up and take care of these guys. Besides us, those bastards from the Black Serpent Pioneer Squad have their eyes on that kid named Chu Hong. If we can snatch that gold-quality energy longsword from him, we can make a fortune, and it's not impossible that we can even move our office to a superior base city!"

A burly man with no hair on his head, wearing bronze armor and holding a greatsword urged loudly.

At the same time, he brandished his greatsword.

With a sharp "crack," a powerful sword aura was unleashed from the greatsword in his hand.

In an instant, he sliced ​​a lizardman warrior, who was just about to throw a spear, several meters away, in two.

A surge of source energy coursed through his body. Among the five members of the pioneer team called "Wolf Hunter," the one with the lowest source energy level was actually at the fourth stage of source energy.

The captain who was speaking at that moment possessed a terrifying level of Source Energy Eighth Stage.

"Boom!"

Another spell was unleashed by the settler in the mage direction, blasting across the towering outpost.

In an instant, all the lizardmen on the cliff top were cleared out.

The Wolf Hunter Captain quickly arrived at the edge of the cliff.

Looking down, his brows furrowed instantly.

"Nobody here?"

As the most well-known "prison" in the Thunderhorn Lizardman Tribe to this day.

The spawn point at the entrance of the valley is the number one spot in the core area.

However, he is also the number one position who needs to be able to engage in battle.

The pioneers born on the north and south cliff tops could also use the jungle to bypass the lizardmen warriors at the watchtowers and, at the cost of time and speed, rappel down the cliff corners.

"Captain, are they in the river?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a female pioneer in the Wolf Hunter Pioneer Squad, whose role was clearly that of an archer, had a light blue gleam in her eyes.

His gaze swept across the rushing river below.

"No, we didn't find anyone in the river. Either they have some kind of device that can block detection, or they simply didn't cross the river..."

Everyone's gaze swept over the area at the bridge entrance.

There wasn't even a trace of a battle in sight, and the patrolling lizardman warriors were still patrolling the riverbank.

Meanwhile, the battle on the opposite cliff was also nearing its end.

At this moment, the two sides are separated by a huge river valley, standing on the cliffs on either side, and can even see each other from a distance.

"Hmph! Those two brats are definitely hiding somewhere, most likely right under our feet. Let's go down the mountain and find them!"

Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the cliff.

After looting the high-value treasure chest at the top of the outpost, the full five-man Black Serpent Pioneer Squad immediately made the same decision as the Wolf Hunters.

Enter the core area and search for Chu Hong and Wang Suming!

"Captain, there's absolutely no movement in the core area. That kid must have just come in, and as soon as he realized we were following him, he ran from the spawn point to the evacuation point!"

"They're definitely on the riverside path at the foot of the cliff where those wolf hunters are!"

Captain Black Snake nodded, and a ruthless and resolute glint flashed in his other eye, which was not covered by an eyepatch.

"Let's go! Down the mountain!"

The group quickly took out ropes and completed the setup.

They began rappelling down the cliff below.

This is a relatively secluded location, and the angle won't be noticed by the lizardmen patrolling the core area. It's practically a "safe route" recognized by all the pioneer teams in Huangshan Base City.

however.

Just as they were rappelling down halfway down, a sharp hissing sound made the Black Snake team members, who were in the middle of the cliff, instantly feel their hair stand on end.

Captain Black Snake looked down and his expression changed drastically.

"Oh no! We've been discovered!"

He simply couldn't understand why things were going wrong today, when they had moved fast enough and chosen a location that the lizardmen would never discover.

"Hurry! Get up there!" Black Snake roared, hissing as he was covered in sweat.

He quickly pulled on the rope, trying to climb back up.

Energy surged within his body.

however.

The thunder below was even more rapid than their movements.

One of the bosses who should have been in the core area, [Kassal the Thunderhorn Lizardman Priest], was now standing at their feet, followed by several angry lizardman warriors. Two of them were pointing at them in mid-air, letting out excited lizardman hisses.

"Snap!"

"ah!!!"

With a piercing scream, a member of the Black Serpent Pioneer Squad, his body crackling with lightning, was instantly struck by Casal's attack, and his rope snapped.

It fell straight down.

With a loud bang, it smashed into a deep, human-shaped crater.

Even though he was at the fifth level of Qiyuan, falling from a height of more than ten meters, he was seriously injured on the spot, with blood gushing from his mouth and nose.

A spear pierced straight through his heart.

"Pillar!" Captain Black Snake roared in fury.

however.

What greeted him was a bolt of lightning that had instantly split into four bolts, bursting forth from the staff of the lizardman priest Kassar.

"Watch out! Get out of the way!" Captain Black Snake pulled on the rope, his agile figure moving left and right on the cliff face as if he were flying across the rooftops.

however.

He managed to dodge it.

Two more figures in the group were struck by lightning magic.

One person was suspended in mid-air by a rope and immediately lost consciousness.

One person, on the other hand, fell straight down.

below.

Even after transforming into a lizardman, Fatty Wang Suming was noticeably larger, and upon seeing the pioneer fall, he didn't hesitate at all.

He picked up the spear that had already killed one man and charged forward.

A spear piercing the heart!

Hesitating for even a second longer would be disrespectful to Chu Hong, the leader who brought him into the map!

Another person has been dealt with.

Wang Suming looked excitedly at Chu Hong, who was standing next to the lizardman priest.

Their eyes met instantly.

Chu Hong then hurled a long spear at the unconscious pioneer swinging on the swing in mid-air on the cliff.

"Pfft!"

The spear pierced the man's body; the immense force even pinned the corpse to the cliff face.

"Boss, I'm going to chase after those humans up there. I'll definitely avenge our people!" (Lizardman's language)

Chu Hong roared angrily and ferociously, and quickly charged forward.

However, he was stopped by the priest Kassar.

The latter nodded appreciatively at Chu Hong and Wang Suming.

"I've seen your courage and loyalty, but you're going up too slowly at this rate..."

As he spoke, a burst of lightning suddenly erupted beneath his feet, and the phantom of a magic circle appeared as Casar chanted incantations.

In a burst of blinding light.

Casal vanished on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, a violent thunderous magical bombardment resounded from the cliff face above.

Wang Suming excitedly slapped the ground with the lizard's tail behind him, his eyes fixed on Chu Hong.

Both of their eyes gleamed with malice, a traitorous intent.

They all pointed sharply to the opposite bank of the river, where the wolf-hunting team was also rappelling.

"The enemy is there! Quickly! Inform the chieftain!"
