26: Chapter 26 Supply Point! A Huge Harvest!
Li Mo's Fallen Sky Spear was not only extremely powerful, but its destructive capabilities were also immense.
The Nether Wolf King's body was instantly torn to shreds, and a crater a full three meters deep was blasted into the ground.
Everyone looking in that direction wore an expression of shock.
"That direction, I remember that's where Li Mo, who is in the Foundation Establishment Stage, is, right?"
"What is he doing? Such a huge commotion?"
"It's said that this guy is the only one among the new recruits in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and he broke through from the Hidden Edge Realm to the Foundation Establishment Realm in just one month!"
"What a monster! How are we supposed to compete with that?"
...
Never mind the people from other teams; even Zheng Jiahao and Xu Feng, who witnessed this scene with their own eyes, were dumbfounded.
You have to realize that Li Mo had only just reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, yet he was able to instantly kill a Nether Wolf King that was also in the Foundation Establishment Stage!
Generally speaking, given the Nether Wolf King's strength, it might not be that difficult for an ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm martial artist to kill it, but to kill it instantly is almost impossible.
This is because the Nether Wolf King possesses both powerful speed and defensive capabilities.
And a martial artist who has just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage could never be a match for a Nether Wolf King!
Yet Li Mo managed to do exactly that!
"This... is pretty badass!"
"What do you mean 'pretty badass'? It's pure strength! Zheng Jiahao, it looks like we can win this!"
After Li Mo took out the Nether Wolf King, the remaining hundreds of Nether Wolves were also terrified.
Usually, when there is no wolf king, although they act in packs, they lack organization and coordination.
But once there is a wolf king, the pack is like having a brain, acting under the wolf king's command.
It can be said that a pack of Nether Wolves with a wolf king and one without are two completely different types of exotic beast groups.
That said, while a pack with a wolf king is indeed extremely formidable, correspondingly, once the pack loses that wolf king, they become even weaker than if they had never had a wolf king to begin with!
Out of the hundreds of Nether Wolves, half were so scared they were frozen in place, not daring to move.
This greatly reduced the impact Zheng Jiahao and Xu Feng had to face.
Zheng Jiahao naturally possessed the Danger Perception talent, so dodging the pounces of a few Nether Wolves was not a problem.
As for Xu Feng, with his large build and his hundreds-of-jin mace, he was naturally better suited for defense.
And after withstanding the first wave of the Nether Wolf pack's charge, the rest became much simpler!
Because the wolf king had been killed, the Nether Wolves were already terrified, their formation was almost completely disrupted, and even their eyes were filled with the intent to retreat.
"Kill!"
At this moment, Li Mo shouted, and the three of them immediately charged back at the Nether Wolf pack.
In truth, even without the wolf king, a pack of hundreds of Nether Wolves could still pose a fatal threat to the three of them.
What's more, Li Mo's Falling Heaven Strike is an S-rank combat technique that consumes a massive amount of vitality; if they were surrounded by the Nether Wolf pack, there would be a risk of his vitality being completely exhausted.
But as the saying goes, when two armies meet on a narrow path, the brave one wins!
The pack without a wolf king was nothing but a bunch of stray dogs; seeing the three humans in front of them still fearlessly taking the initiative to attack, they were immediately scared into fleeing in disarray.
A dramatic scene unfolded: the pack that was originally chasing the Moyu Squad had now become the target of the chase, and they were being chased around by three scrawny humans.
It was as if they weren't chasing Nether Wolves, but rather a bunch of little chicks!
Who knows how much time had passed, but seeing that the Nether Wolves had already run far away, the three of them finally stopped; continuing to chase would be a waste of time and not worth it.
Thus, they began to clean up the battlefield and count their spoils.
In this battle, they killed one wolf king and sixty Nether Wolves.
Li Mo killed the most, about thirty-something.
Zheng Jiahao, because he was fast enough, killed twenty.
Xu Feng basically couldn't catch up to the Nether Wolves later on, so he only killed about ten.
Of course, the biggest harvest of all was the Nether Wolf King that Li Mo killed.
This was an exotic beast at the Foundation Establishment Stage!
You have to know that on the exotic beast scoring chart, the highest was originally only at the Hidden Edge Realm, Grade 9.
An exotic beast at the Hidden Edge Realm, Grade 9 is worth 200 points.
A Foundation Establishment Realm wolf king would definitely be worth at least ten times that.
Even twenty times wouldn't be surprising.
After all, the difficulty of a Foundation Establishment Realm exotic beast is much greater than a Grade 9 Hidden Edge Realm one.
It was only because Li Mo was in this team; if it were any other squad, they would have had to fire a signal flare just now.
Li Mo slowly sat down, gasping for breath; he was clearly a bit tired.
To be honest, his vitality foundation was still too poor; even with the nourishment from the vitality potion over the past month, his total vitality was still not high.
Using an S-rank combat technique once required consuming nearly half of his total vitality.
Seeing Li Mo in this state, Zheng Jiahao said: "Alright! Let's rest for a while and first log the blood crystals of these Nether Wolves onto our points watches."
Li Mo readily agreed, then handed the task of logging the points to the two of them, while he himself closed his eyes to rest and entered a meditative state to quickly recover his vitality.
Gradually, Li Mo felt that his vitality had finally recovered by more than half, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Zheng Jiahao reported the battle results to Li Mo.
The Nether Wolf King that Li Mo killed was indeed worth twenty times the points of a Grade 9 Hidden Edge Realm beast, reaching a terrifying 4,000 points.
Adding in the point total from the group of Nether Wolves, the Moyu Squad's total points were now approaching the 10,000 mark.
Such a number was undoubtedly a massive lead in first place!
The second and third place point totals were still only around three or four thousand!
Taking out this Nether Wolf pack was equivalent to half a day or even a full day's worth of results for other squads!
Li Mo nodded slowly; his personal gains were actually not low either, as that Nether Wolf King provided 400 devour points.
Now he had a total of over 1,000 devour points in his account.
The three finished resting and discussed their next move.
At this moment, Zheng Jiahao suddenly said: "Li Mo, just now, while passing by the Nether Wolf lair, I accidentally discovered some high-tech equipment that shouldn't be out in the wild. Should we go take a look?"
"High-tech equipment?"
Li Mo gave a soft exclamation upon hearing this.
When Zhang Ruxue was explaining the battlefield rules, she had mentioned that the military had previously dropped quite a lot of supplies throughout the entire Desolate Valley Mountains.
Squads participating in the operation could also obtain a large number of points by finding these supplies.
Perhaps the high-tech equipment Zheng Jiahao mentioned was related to these supplies.
"Alright! Let's go take a look!"
...
Just as Li Mo and the others got up to head toward the Nether Wolf lair, the group of officers watching this practical assessment were also praising them repeatedly.
"This is the first year this practical assessment has been held, and the Moyu Squad is truly a dark horse!"
"Foundation Establishment in one month! Looking across the entire three hundred years of the New Calendar, I'm afraid there aren't many geniuses like this!"
"Second Lieutenant Zhang! Congratulations! To be able to train such a soldier!"
The Moyu Squad's points were far ahead of everyone else, and although many officers were dissatisfied, they dared not show it and could only offer their repeated congratulations to Zhang Ruxue.
Zhang Ruxue had never been good at hiding her feelings, and she was grinning from ear to ear.
Fortunately, General Qin Fei gave a light cough, which made Zhang Ruxue stop smiling.
"Ruxue, don't be too happy too soon. The people on the battlefield now haven't found the things we hid yet; those things are the major source of points, and the Moyu Squad might still be caught up!"
