In the valley, in front of the narrow entrance, there were more than a dozen Dark Society members and they didn’t seem to be bothered by the intrusion.
Looking at the young man in front of them who only brought a few sprites and wanted to fight them, there was disdain in their eyes.
“You overestimate yourself!”
The leader of the Dark Society, who commanded more than ten people, sneered.
Previously, most of the master-level Sprite Trainers and sprites of the Union had already fallen under their continuous bombardment.
If not for the fact that their mission was to block the entrance, the leader of the Dark Society was confident that he could make it so that none of the people from the Union could escape from their bombardment.
However…
He looked at the Sprite Trainers who were using Sprite Commandeering gestures to summon their sprites behind the young man. After thinking for a moment, he understood the other party’s plan.
Immediately, he shouted, “Don’t be attracted by the Union’s tricks. Blast the people behind directly. I want their sprites to be heavily injured on the spot the moment they appear!”
The others understood and gave the order.
In front of the entrance of the valley, Explosive Fireball, Water Dragon Scroll, Ice Awl… The attacks were executed by 20 to 30 sprites at the same time and were dense like rain as it fell over their heads.
Even if they were only relatively ordinary unique skills, given their large numbers, they still produced terrifying power.
The elemental particles between heaven and earth became restless, and various kinds of energy kept enlarging in Su Hao’s vision.
“Bear.”
Su Hao gave the order.
At some point, a Big Fat Bear, more than three meters tall and wearing a bluish-purple full-body armor, appeared in front of Su Hao. Facing the unique skills that were coming at him from countless attacks, the bear didn’t dodge, only hugged its head with both hands, and then…
It let out a roar.
“Howl—!!”
An explosion erupted.
Sound waves spread one after another. The dozen or so Dark Society Sprite Trainers guarding the valley couldn’t help but cast protective barriers on their bodies.
Even Mo Tao and the others, who were behind the bear, had to activate their barriers for a while.
But it was only a mere roar…
Just as the leader of the Dark Society had this thought, a huge bear head appeared above him. The figure with bluish-purple shadow quickly opened its mouth…
Roar!
The sudden roar was heard. Explosive fireballs, water dragons, ice awls… The countless attacks that had already flown into the air exploded with a bang.
Clouds of smoke shrouded the sky. The Big Fat Bear opened its eyes and blinked, only now realizing that the attack had not landed on its body.
With a howl, its feet stomped on the ground, and its body flew out. Lightning appeared on its palm, and countless thunder arcs interweaved and circled around, sweeping out in all directions like thunder chains.
Many sprites who were in a daze or accumulating energy to prepare for the second wave of attack were instantly entangled by the chains and pulled forward.
Thunder Palm!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Sprites flew out one after another. Be it elite-level limit or extraordinary-level, none of them could withstand the Big Fat Bear’s palm. They either fell to the ground or hit the mountain wall, convulsing, and there were even traces of thunder arcs on their bodies.
At this moment…
A dazzling sun descended from the sky and smashed in front of the entrance of the valley.
Dust and gravel flew everywhere.
One by one, the Sprite Trainers from the Dark Society fell to the ground, feeling shocked.
They only heard…
“You’ve been surrounded. Surrender is the only way out!”
Amidst the smoke and dust, a slender figure slowly walked out. As the figure walked, whether it was flying gravel or burning flames, they all headed away from the figure.
The gravel and flames had made way for the figure.
Who exactly is he?!
Are we really… surrounded by him alone?
…
Su Hao, who had surrounded more than ten enemies, frowned slightly.
“Two escaped.”
He counted. With his extraordinary memory, he immediately knew which two were missing.
They were the leader of the Dark Society who gave orders just now and an ordinary master-level.
They probably took advantage of the chaos and escaped from the entrance of the valley behind them. After that, they probably also summoned their sprites to leave together.
“Captain Mo, I’ll leave the members of the Dark Society here to you. I’ll leave first.”
Mo Tao nodded.
At this moment, their sprites had already been summoned. They immediately went forward and stabbed the sprites who still had battle power.
At the same time, Captain Mo took out a special rope specially used to bind Sprite Trainers.
He dealt with them swiftly.
Behind him…
Tie Yu and Tong Jia looked at each other.
He felt that this inspector’s battle style was a little reckless.
But one thing was for sure, the inspector was… really strong!
Strength was all that mattered!
As for the issue of insufficient battle experience, that didn’t matter. That was what they were there for, after all.
The two immediately chased after Su Hao and arrived in front of the valley’s narrow entrance.
Tie Yu took a look and immediately frowned.
“Inspector, these rock walls are probably made with some special metal. They are very hard, and the entrance is too narrow…”
On the seemingly ordinary rock wall, if one observed carefully, one could see tiny sparkling lights.
Su Hao recalled what happened just now. The attacks of the Big Fat Bear and Dazed Crow had affected the mountain wall, but only a few broken rocks fell.
It was very strong.
Furthermore…
“It’s called a valley, but the Dark Society’s stronghold seems to be located in the belly of a naturally formed mountain, unable to enter from the sky.”
“It’s not impossible to forcefully break through, but it might cause the mountain wall to collapse…”
Their mission was to capture the main members of the Dark Society alive.
Besides those crazy Dark Society lunatics, there was also no lack of Sprite Trainers and sprites captured by the Dark Society in the stronghold.
It was inappropriate to break the walls recklessly.
It’s also inappropriate to bet on entering from the entrance… There must be other paths that can be left in the stronghold, there can’t just be only one entrance.
Tong Jia said, “Inspector, the entrance is too narrow, it can only accommodate us humans and small-sized sprites. Why don’t we let my Master Hound take the lead? It has bronze skin and iron bones, it should be able to block any incoming attacks for a period of time.”
The gap in the entrance was only about ten meters long. With a glance, one could see the opposite side.
But it wasn’t wide enough. With Thunder Roaring’s size, it definitely couldn’t pass.
As for the others…
The Eternal Night Glory Concubine and Butterfly Fairy weren’t meat shields like the bear.
But before Tong Jia could finish speaking.
The inspector in their eyes had already entered the gap.
Tie Yu and Tong Jia: “???”
With the Master Hound, the two quickly followed.
The gap was narrow and could only accommodate an adult of a normal size.
Su Hao took three to five steps forward. The Eternal Night Glory Concubine’s dress turned white, and it followed closely behind him.
In just a while, everything became clear.
The valley area was larger than they had imagined. As far as the eye could see, there were single-story houses arranged in sequence.
But before Su Hao could observe more, he saw from the corner of his eye…
“Flaming Dragon Bite!”
“Multiple Water Blade!”
“Compressed Energy Ball!”
Sprites hiding on both sides of the exit, which had long been accumulating power, blasted out their killer moves.
There weren’t as many of them as before, but their power was stronger. Even if ordinary extraordinary-levels arrived prepared, they would definitely be heavily injured in one hit.
At this moment…
“Idiot, it’s actually a Sprite Trainer taking the lead personally!”
The eyes of the leader of the Dark Society, who was hiding at the side, shone as he stared straight at the young man who had defeated them with his own strength just now.
He thought to himself…
“Kill him! Kill him! It’s much better than injuring one or two sprites!”
Flames, water blades, and Energy Balls landed instantly.
At this moment…
The young man from the Union seemed to have been scared silly. He stood rooted to the ground in a daze, raising his hand as if instinctively wanting to protect himself…
No, he wasn’t scared!
Su Hao raised his arm slowly but quickly, as if he was holding the sky.
In an instant…
The roaring Flaming Dragon, the blue water blade that slashed through the air, and the elemental light particles gathering and trembling Energy Ball…
They were all frozen in mid-air!
The next moment, his palm swung down.
Frozen in the air, the buzzing Dragon of Fire, the Blue Water Blade, and the Energy Ball all shot back in the direction they came from!
It bombarded the hiding place of the Dark Society sprites.
Rumble~!
The Bursting Flame Bat, Giant Crocodile King, and the other sprites dodged instinctively, only suffering some flesh wounds.
But their mental injuries…
“Stop him!”
The leader of the Dark Society shouted. In the next moment, he grabbed the Bursting Flame Bat’s body and escaped at an extremely fast speed.
He decided to betray his teammates!
But…
Su Hao snapped his fingers gently.
There was no need to shout or make specific gestures.
Dazed Crow, Big Fat Bear, and Dumb Unicorn appeared one after another, blocking the escaping Dark Society leader.
Su Hao looked over and smiled peacefully.
“Now, you will have two choices..”
