Eat Little Almonds
Chapter 59 Killing Tianji, Hidden Crisis
The sky full of smoke and dust slowly dissipated, and Qiao Yu reappeared unscathed, holding the Qinglong Yanyue Blade (Crescent Blade).
The ground around him was like it had been plowed by an old ox, with sand pits blown out everywhere.
The tall mech took two steps back, seemingly terrified that Qiao Yu was actually immune to missiles.
Not believing in the evil, it fired several more missiles at Qiao Yu's location.
Qiao Yu swung the Qinglong Yanyue Blade (Crescent Blade) with both hands, forming a full circle like swinging a golden cudgel.
Not a single missile that flew over could break through Qiao Yu's defense.
"Tianji, right? If you only have these abilities, then it's my turn."
Qiao Yu rushed over with his blade.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
After three strikes, the ten-meter-tall mech was directly dismembered into a pile of scrap metal by Qiao Yu.
"Ahhh! It hurts!"
A little boy's voice rang out, he was pinned under the broken mech parts.
Qiao Yu moved the parts away and lifted the little boy with one hand.
"You're Tianji of the third defense line? How come you're just a kid?" Qiao Yu asked.
Moreover, Tianji's strength was too weak, much weaker than that Tianxuan before.
Just as Qiao Yu was wondering, the entire desert trembled again, and yellow sand filled the sky.
Qiao Yu looked in the direction of the sound, the strong and violent explosive force drove the sand waves on both sides, and a figure seemed to be in the sea, rolling in on a sea beast.
"Intruding into the third defense line is punishable by death!"
A stern shout came, and the figure in the sea of sand also revealed its shape.
It was a thin, gloomy man, and under his feet, he was stepping on a mechanical centipede that was ten meters long.
No!
Not stepping on!
Qiao Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, he found that the man had actually merged with the mechanical centipede under his feet!
This was clearly a mechanical monster.
"Lord Tianji, Lord Tianji, please save me, this kid is an intruder!"
The little boy held in Qiao Yu's hand shouted desperately.
The mechanical centipede's tentacles flicked suddenly, directly snatching the little boy from Qiao Yu's hand.
Before the little boy could be surprised, he saw Tianji's gloomy face.
"Waste is not qualified to live."
As soon as the words fell, Tianji directly threw the little boy into the mechanical centipede's mouth.
The mechanical centipede opened its sharp teeth made of steel and swallowed the little boy into its belly.
The little boy didn't even have time to scream before he was melted by the strong acid in the mechanical centipede's mouth.
"Humph! Humans are really weak! Next, it's your turn!"
Tianji turned his gaze to Qiao Yu, and the mechanical centipede's tentacles swung accordingly.
Qiao Yu waved the Qinglong Yanyue Blade (Crescent Blade), dodged the tentacles to the side, and directly slashed at the mechanical centipede.
Clang!
The terrifying shock force made Qiao Yu's arms numb, the defense of this centipede was so strong that even he couldn't break it!
"Goodness gracious! What kind of breed is this!"
Qiao Yu couldn't help but smack his lips, it was the first time he had encountered a carapace that he couldn't split open.
"Hmph! Give up, my Tianji's centipede carapace is known as the strongest defense in the Mechanical Kingdom! You can't break it at all!"
Tianji seemed to see Qiao Yu's embarrassment and immediately sneered.
"Is that so? Then are your people as hard as your carapace?"
Qiao Yu changed his target to Tianji himself, he jumped high and slashed at Tianji's neck with a swift strike.
To Qiao Yu's surprise, Tianji actually shrunk into the centipede carapace like a turtle!
This strike directly hit the air!
"Hehehe, kid, you underestimated me too much! You've been tricked!"
Tianji stretched out half of his head with a sneer, and the mechanical centipede below instantly turned its head and opened its big mouth to bite at Qiao Yu.
"Oh dear, trouble."
Qiao Yu, who was in the air with nowhere to borrow strength, was swallowed into the mechanical centipede's belly as soon as he finished speaking.
"Tear!"
As soon as Qiao Yu fell into the mechanical centipede's mouth, countless high-concentration strong acids began to corrode his skin.
His skin gradually began to carbonize, and his health bar was also continuously decreasing. At this rate, Qiao Yu would be corroded in a few minutes and eventually become a lump of feces of the mechanical centipede.
"Damn! How long has this dead centipede not brushed its teeth? Such a big breath."
"I'll see if your body has such a strong defense too."
Qiao Yu disgustedly covered his mouth and nose, then took the Qinglong Yanyue Blade (Crescent Blade) in his hand and stabbed upwards with all his strength.
But the outside Tianji didn't know that doom was about to befall him.
If Tianji had watched the part in Journey to the West where Princess Iron Fan ate Sun Wukong, he probably wouldn't have chosen to eat Qiao Yu.
Tianji stroked the mechanical centipede's huge head, revealing a doting look.
"Good boy, I gave you an extra meal today, two humans as snacks, are you happy?"
However, Tianji soon realized that something was wrong, the mechanical centipede under him suddenly began to twist wildly.
"Good boy, what's wrong, good boy?" Tianji's face was full of worry.
The next second, a majestic blade light directly penetrated the mechanical centipede's body, breaking a big hole in its carapace.
"Critical Hit! -2200!"
The attack that Qiao Yu launched from inside the mechanical centipede's body directly produced a critical hit, instantly emptying the mechanical centipede's health points.
The mechanical centipede twisted a few times and exploded into a sky full of fireworks in the desert.
[Detected that player Qiao Yu solved NPC Tianji through melee combat, rewarded 15 free attribute points, experience +75]
"Cough cough! Cough cough cough! The Mechanical Seven Generals are indeed not to be trifled with."
Qiao Yu coughed as he walked out of the smoke and dust, his condition was not very good at the moment.
The mechanical centipede's acid corroded his clothes and skin, and the explosion just now caused him serious injuries.
No wonder the guides he got all suggested going to get the eyeball of a high-level general, the difficulty of single-handedly defeating the Mechanical Seven Generals was simply too high.
Each of these mechanical generals has strength no weaker than Xun Dong.
"Boss, that kid seems to be injured! Should we..."
In the sand dunes not far away, three men were secretly observing Qiao Yu.
One of the black-haired youths made a throat-slitting gesture.
"No!"
The man, called boss by the black-haired youth, waved his hand to stop the black-haired youth.
"We followed this kid all the way, and watched him kill Tianxuan and Tianji with our own eyes. I suspect that Tian Shu, who disappeared, was also killed by this kid!"
"There's no need for us to show up early and arouse his vigilance. Anyway, our mission is to eliminate the Mechanical Seven Generals, and following this kid to complete the mission counts as completing it!"
"When we finally take care of this kid, wouldn't all kinds of equipment, skill rewards that he drops be ours!"
After hearing boss Zhou Hao's words, the other two men's eyes lit up. This was a good idea!
"Boss, you're so thoughtful! The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!"
"Yes, but boss, no one should have accepted the mission to eliminate the Seven Generals except us. Why did this kid come to challenge the Mechanical Seven Generals alone?"
Zhou Hao rested his chin and pondered for a while, then slowly said.
"I'm not very clear either, but this kid is so young and has such strong strength, he is probably a top student from some university or a rich kid."
"Remember to be clean when you strike later! Kill him with one strike, don't let this kid see our faces!"
"Yes! Boss!"
The three men grinned as they looked at Qiao Yu, who was taking medicine to recover. All three of them were early-stage powerhouses.
With planning and no awareness from Qiao Yu, wouldn't it be as easy as plucking something out of a bag to take care of this kid?
