At 5:11 in the morning on September 3rd, when the sun was supposed to be rising at dawn, the sky was covered by thick dark clouds. Countless ferocious waves surged up in the previously calm bay, and terrifying giant waves echoed between the sky and the earth. The beast roars, and it's basically a doomsday scene.

In the private channel, Xia Yan contacted Elliot: "I have a suspicion that I really don't want to admit."

"I have one too, and I guess we're on the same page."

After a pause for a few seconds, the two said one word in unison: "Legend!"

Like ability users, this world also has a rating system for "superpower creatures", which are "ordinary", "excellent", "prison gate", "titan", and "legendary", which correspond to the "person" of ability users. ", "tiger", "ghost", "dragon", "core", these five levels. As for god-level supernatural beings, they do not exist.

Among the supernatural creatures that have appeared in this game, smoke lizards and leaf pterosaurs belong to the ordinary level because they have no special abilities; slime monsters and long-throated birds belong to the sophisticated level due to their higher danger; Then there's the Kraken, which was mistaken for a Titan, but is actually powerful enough to become a legend.

The following are the classification criteria for each level:

Ordinary level - huge in number and low in threat, with special abilities that can hardly be used for attacks, and may not be opponents of nature's top predators such as tigers and lions at the same size;

Elite level - the strength is significantly improved compared to the ordinary level. There are no natural enemies in nature, and there is no general animal vigilance and fear of humans, and will actively attack humans;

Prison gate level - synonymous with highly dangerous and highly uncontrollable creatures. It has combat power comparable to those with ghost level abilities. It is a beast-shaped killing machine that cannot be left to roam freely. Every one found needs to be killed or contained. Therefore it is called "Prison Gate";

Titan class - has two major characteristics: huge size and long life, extremely rare in number, and unknown reproduction method. Most of the Titans currently known are independent individuals and have no kin. They will fall asleep for various reasons, ranging from three to five years to more than a thousand years, so the danger is not as dangerous as the prison gate level;

Legend level - there are only a handful of them, each one is an ancient living fossil. More than half of the legends have been incorporated into human mythology, or are simply belief totems accepted by humans for worship, such as the Yamata-no-Orochi in Sakura County and the giant beast Behemoth (ie. Behemoth) and Leviathan.

You can think with your toes how incredibly strong the legendary monsters are, and Xia Yan and Elliot didn't join this option because they couldn't beat them, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet.

At least, the legendary behemoth they faced was not the "Old Dominator" Gatanjie that Yun Ming thought. To defeat it did not require the children of the world to turn into light. It just looked a lot like Lord Er.

It is a legendary behemoth from an alien planet. It is not recorded in the historical documents of the earth. Its name is very long when translated into Chinese. I will use Kraken to refer to it below. The same goes for Zuojia.

As a legend, Kraken naturally has many trump cards. In addition to high-speed recovery and hard back and head armor, he also has a passive that automatically changes color when he appears, and a powerful summoning technique.

We have also seen Kraken's own attack power in the first two chapters. It is really not good, so what if it encounters an opponent it cannot win? It's easy to say, just call a little brother to come and help.

The strange bird Zoga is a thug created by it to assist in boxing.

Zoga, a titan-level behemoth born in the darkness, was combined with the souls of prisoners, soldiers, long-throated birds and slime monsters who were buried in Fortress No. 5 to form the vengeful monster Zoga.

At this moment, tens of thousands of soldiers formed three groups and launched a continuous offensive against the three groups of enemies.

On the first route, Zuo Jia is responsible for chasing Yun Ming and others. After Benita canceled the [Binding], the presence of the two dragon-level ability users was immediately felt by Kraken. Zoja along the way wanted to kill Bai Fei and Benita.

However, they came into close combat with the Arnold team of the Renaissance organization. The ten Arnolds are the ten peak ghost-level ability users. These transformed people blocked Wan Yuzuojia, and when they ran out of weapons, they chose to self-destruct and die with the enemy. After inflicting considerable losses of troops and generals, the Zorgas resumed their pursuit, but Yun Ming and others had already used the time bought by the Arnolds to join up with Pedro.

On the other side, they faced Elliot Edwards. The battle situation was very simple. To describe it in one sentence, the Zogas were fighting to their death one after another. Elliot wrapped himself in layers of metal and turned himself into a silkworm chrysalis, with sharp cones protruding from the outside of the pupa shell. The swarming Zoga was assassinated numerous times, but did not cause any harm to Elliot himself.

The most exciting part of the battle was the last one. Zuo Jia attacked Zhuge Rong and others on land, which brought them huge psychological pressure. There are two main reasons why Zoga suffered in the other two lanes but this lane was prosperous: first, they broke away from the water and fought in an air-to-ground mode, eliminating the disadvantage of moving under the sea; second, the six ghosts present were Not everyone with super abilities has skills suitable for use in this situation.

The bones in Zoga's body were very brittle and he had no defense. This was good news for others, but sad news for Mendelson - his Mischief Blade was directly disabled.

Zhuge Rong was also helpless when facing Zuojia. The Mountain and Sea Scroll was a purely auxiliary ability, and it was not as useful as a submachine gun here.

Fortunately, they had prepared enough thermal weapons - twelve Wanglian blades, each of the six ghost-level ability users could ride one, and the other six were loaded with munitions. Relying on superior firepower, this team held on to the danger, and Zuojia couldn't take it for a while.

In this battle, mechanic Wade Fast is the well-deserved MVP.

He used his special "building blocks" to build a hemispherical battle fortress on the flat ground, so that everyone was not exposed in the wilderness with no cover, and avoided the dilemma of being attacked from both sides. The raw materials of the battle fort are earth and bronze provided by Maehara Douyang. If it were a traditional battlefield, a single artillery shot would be able to penetrate this earth fortress, but when faced with an opponent like Saka who only uses flesh and blood to impact, , the situation is completely different.

"This situation is really terrible." Jin threw the empty rifle to Zhuge Rong to reload, and he picked up a fully loaded weapon from the ground and fired through the shooting hole of the battle fort: "The six of us None of them are capable users specialized in attacking, they are all using firearms to fight back, and a team of ordinary soldiers can do it."

"You can't say that. Maehara Douyang and I are also considered martial arts among the guards. But you also know that our fighting methods are close combat, so..." Caiflin shrugged: "There is nothing we can do."

Zhuge Rong loaded the bullet with extremely fast hand speed while encouraging everyone: "It's not a big problem. These strange birds can only attack stupidly, but they can't enter the fortress. We have plenty of weapons and ammunition. We just need to pull the trigger." ”

As if just to slap them in the face, the Zoga who were charging a second ago retreated without warning.

"Withdrawn?"

"I hope so, but I think it's more like preparing a new offense."

As mentioned above, Zoga was transformed by the resentful spirits of three creatures after the death of humans, long-throated birds, and slime monsters. The first two species are both reflected in Zoga's appearance, but what about the characteristics of the slime monster?

"Hey! Those birds are gathering together! I have a feeling something bad is going to happen!" Yun Ming shouted from the rubber boat while looking at the expanding flock of birds in the sky.

"We are not blind!" Jiang Yao slapped Yun Ming's helmet with an oar, and of course she stopped her force: "Why don't you quickly find a weapon and wait to die?"

"No! Before departure, the Renaissance organization said that conventional weapons have no effect on the Kraken, so they simply didn't give them to us. What's the use of just a rocket launcher? Are you planning to fight them with a paddle?"

Previously, in order to move quietly, this rubber boat was rowed over manually; now that we are eager to escape, we use the diesel engine, regardless of whether the movement is loud or not. Pedro is at the helm from behind: "Don't worry! The helicopter to respond is already here. !”

Indeed, two helicopters came from the horizon. They were both medium-sized aircraft with a large enough passenger capacity. Originally one was enough to carry everyone away, so the Renaissance organization sent an extra one just in case.

But...a fireball suddenly streaked across the sky and accurately hit a helicopter, turning it into a larger fireball.

Everyone on the rubber boat looked back following the trajectory of the fireball and found the murderer: tens of thousands of small strange birds, in just half a minute, merged into an enlarged version of the giant strange bird with a wingspan of more than 100 meters. , and also gained the attack ability to shoot fireballs from its mouth!

This is its complete form - the Titan-level beast Zoga, appears.
