Item Race
Lin Yuan relied on a head start to rush into the lead, with a gap of no more than 20 meters from the second-place A Lan.
A Li, relying on the advantage of his magic sword, quickly caught up.
Tie Chui was not to be outdone; he swung out his mechanical power hammer, immediately overtook A Lan, and took second place.
Lin Yuan took a look and thought, "Oh, you all have some special skills, huh? Let me crank up the intensity for you."
Ahead appeared the formidable traps that Wells had mentioned: ten ballistae loaded with crossbow bolts.
Lin Yuan had noticed them long ago. He slammed his hand onto the acceleration button of his diving suit, doubling his speed and leaving a white wake behind him.
After passing through the ballista zone, Lin Yuan paused for a moment and slapped the ballista hard.
This was akin to poking a hornet's nest; the ten ballistae were activated and fired their bolts in the direction Lin Yuan had just come from.
Seeing the incoming bolts, A Lan puffed out his cheeks and constantly changed direction in the water, displaying his superb swimming skills.
Among the one thousands of bolts, not a single one managed to graze A Lan.
Lin Yuan gave A Lan a thumbs up and immediately turned to continue swimming forward.
A Li and Tie Chui's swimming skills were not as high as A Lan's; one relied on his thick skin to tank the bolts, while the other used the rotational force of his magic sword to deflect them.
The following time was quite interesting. Lin Yuan completely turned the traps in the river channel into props to hinder A Li and the others.
Whether it was swinging Tie Chuis or elastic iron cables, Lin Yuan was having a blast.
A Li and the others saw that Lin Yuan was in high spirits, so they were very cooperative.
After about ten minutes, Lin Yuan was the first to reach the end of the river channel.
"Master is in first place, how amazing!" A Lan followed closely behind, clasping his hands together with stars in his eyes, fully delivering the emotional support.
Behind A Lan, A Li and Tie Chui burst out of the water almost simultaneously.
Tie Chui pulled out a flask and took a deep gulp, then let out a long sigh, "It's been a long time since I've been in the water, but luckily my skills haven't gotten rusty." "Hahahaha."
Compared to Tie Chui's boisterousness, A Li was like a gentleman.
He merged his two swords together, and a blood-colored wave of energy appeared out of thin air, evaporating all the water droplets on everyone.
When Lin Yuan and the others went ashore, Ghost was also about to reach the end of the river channel.
Before setting off, Wells had told Ghost how to avoid the traps.
Ghost didn't say a word and acted very calmly, simply urging the Bluefin Miners to accelerate and charge forward.
Wells was somewhat angry, thinking that Ghost was using his own clansmen as cannon fodder.
But when he saw those traps that had been hacked to pieces, he was completely stunned.
The thirty-meter diameter swinging Tie Chuis were either cut in half by sharp weapons or smashed into two by blunt force.
The elastic iron cables had been violently dismantled from the outside, and even the heavy-pressure machines had been smashed to pieces.
The traps that were fatal in Wells's eyes were like child's play in front of Lin Yuan; they had all become junk.
Ghost sat leisurely on the submarine, arriving at the end of the river channel very smoothly.
It just wore out the group of Bluefin Miners, because the submarine Ghost had made was quite large and heavy.
Even with 1200 people exerting force at the same time, they were still 2 minutes later than Lin Yuan and the others.
Seeing Ghost appear in the submarine, Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.
How does this guy's brain work? He's really good at playing tricks.
He himself had spent quite a lot of effort swimming all the way here, but Ghost was different; he actually sat in a submarine, making this group of Bluefin Miners serve as coolies, and arrived at the end of the river channel comfortably. He's got some skills.
After everyone had gathered, Lin Yuan turned around and looked ahead.
Currently, Lin Yuan was on a square platform about 50 square meters in size.
One end of the platform connected to the river channel, and there were cliffs on both sides.
At the other end of the platform, there were five iron cables.
The end of the cables was 300 meters away, where many Naga Overseers were patrolling.
Seeing the iron cables, a glint flashed in Wells's eyes.
"Warrior, to get to the other side, you must pass through the iron cables."
"The iron cables can only carry one person at a time."
"You can temporarily let me out, and then 'protect' me again once we reach the other side."
When saying the word "protect," Wells deliberately emphasized his tone, appearing very sensible.
Lin Yuan waved his hand without even looking back. "Not necessary."
Iron cables, shmiron cables; if I want to ride, I ride, if I don't, I don't. And as it happens, Lin Yuan didn't want to ride right now.
Lin Yuan walked to the very front and stepped out with one foot.
Ghost raised his hands and began to cast Bone Wall.
Bang! Bang! The Bone Walls appeared one after another beneath Lin Yuan's feet, constructing a wide road in the air.
Wells was dumbfounded. What was going on!
Lin Yuan never played by the rules, causing Wells's calculated plans to fall through once again.
The 300-meter distance was not far, and Lin Yuan soon arrived on the other side.
After the group of Naga Overseers discovered Lin Yuan, they twisted their bodies and rushed toward him, brandishing whips and steel forks in their hands.
Greeting them were the blood-colored magic sword, the azure mechanical war hammer, and a seventy-meter-long scorching battle axe.
War Stomp, Smashing Strike, Thunder Strike, and Void Breaking Slash—Lin Yuan didn't even see what the group of Naga Overseers looked like before they were all killed instantly on the spot.
【Killed Naga Overseer (LV45) * 60, Experience Points + 90000】
Ghost arrived late, carrying the cage.
Wells in the cage glanced at the instantly killed Naga Overseers and was already unfazed.
If he could kill a Sea Elemental instantly, what did these Naga Overseers amount to?
Continuing forward, Lin Yuan encountered the last steam furnace.
The steam furnace in front of him was larger than the previous two combined, and the nearby Bluefin Miners had reached 2500 people.
Counting the previous 1200, all the survivors of the Bluefin Clan were here.
Seeing the final 2500 clansmen, Wells gripped the edge of the cage with both hands and pleaded in a low voice, "Warrior, please let me out of the cage."
"I need to cast a spell to rescue my clansmen."
Lin Yuan did not reply and looked toward the top of the steam furnace.
Wells followed Lin Yuan's gaze. "Warrior, that is the room where Warlord Kaliserus is located."
"As long as you get within 50 meters of the steam furnace, he will sense it."
Seeing that Lin Yuan still didn't react, Wells was almost crying with anxiety.
"Warrior, please let me out first. Let me rescue all my clansmen before fighting Warlord Kaliserus."
Lin Yuan turned back, looked at Wells's anxious face, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Don't worry, I will naturally fulfill what I promised you."
"Ghost, let him out."
"Keep an eye on him."
Ghost opened the cage with a key and followed closely by Wells's side.
Wells lowered his head, came near the mine pit, muttered words, and began to cast his spell.
During the spellcasting, sweat poured down Wells's head like rain, his complexion turned pale to the naked eye, and his body became gaunt, as if he had been wrung dry of water.
Rescuing 2500 people at once was truly going to wring Wells dry.
