249: A life and death fight! 【Ask for monthly ticket】

While Chen Fan and his group were resting at the foot of the mountain, a strange phenomenon occurred in a giant swamp five hundred kilometers away from them!

In the center of the vast, boundless swamp, a large amount of black mud suddenly began to churn, as if some terrifying entity was about to burst out of the earth, creating a massive commotion.

An area of seventy meters in all directions was completely affected.

Piles of mud were pushed out of the swamp by some unknown entity beneath, quickly accumulating into two small hills.

Before long, a giant single-horned rhino, covered in thick black armor and sharp bone spurs, poked its head out of the mud.

The rhino beast’s blood-red, glittering eyes scanned its surroundings, filled with suspicion.

Just a moment ago, a group of humanoid creatures seemed to have flown past!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Then, the giant rhino shook its head vigorously, flinging large chunks of mud in all directions, creating one deep pit after another.

Soon, the entire body of this rhino beast emerged with a whoosh.

The giant single-horned rhino, approximately a hundred meters long and twenty stories high, rose from the ground, looking around menacingly.

Sniff! Sniff!

The next moment, this armored rhino’s two massive, black-hole-like nostrils vigorously sniffed the faint scent of blood in the air.

After a while, it turned its head slightly, its gaze fixed on the direction Chen Fan had flown, and a flicker of intelligence shone in its huge, crimson eyes.

Not only was there a scent of blood there, but also the fresh scent of humans!

Immediately after, this giant rhino, many times larger than the Crocodile World Lord, moved.

Its immense body alone was enough to suffocate an ordinary Astral Rank martial artist.

He had been dormant for an unknown number of years, and his stomach was already empty.

Now, unexpectedly awakened, he needed to eat.

A large amount of food!

The mountain-like rhino beast’s limbs, thick as ancient trees, began to move, and he started to run forward.

From a distance, he looked like a moving war fortress.

Boom! Boom!

This giant rhino’s four limbs pounded the ground, gradually accelerating, moving faster and faster... the earth began to tremble with him.

And the power aura emanating from this fortress-like black-armored rhino was none other than Universe Rank Stage Eight!

With just one more stage, this rhino monster would be able to stand at the peak of Universe Rank.

His strength was terrifying to this extent!

Just as this Universe Rank rhino beast set off, in another location ten thousand miles away, Han Li and his group of six were fleeing in disarray through the swamp.

Behind them were hundreds, if not thousands, of Astral Rank demon ox beasts.

These massive demon oxen, covered in thick black armor, galloped wildly, chasing Han Li and the six like a tidal wave, appearing relentless.

At this moment, Han Li and Fang Yuan were being supported by four peak Astral Rank servants, one on each side, as they ran frantically.

They had originally intended to lure a small group of single-horned demon oxen and then annihilate them.

Unfortunately, plans don't always go as expected; they accidentally stirred up this big trouble while luring the enemy.

“No, if we keep running like this, the advantage won’t be ours.

These beasts have much better stamina than us, not to mention there are nearly forty peak Astral Rank demon ox leaders mixed in.”

“Even if we escape this demon ox herd, I can’t tolerate this insult!”

Han Li looked back at the dense horde of beasts, his eyes burning with anger.

This is unbearable!

“We must counterattack!”

After speaking, Han Li looked at Fang Yuan, his expression slightly surprised.

It turned out that Fang Yuan had already taken out a man-sized Laser Cannon from his spatial ring, holding it tightly in his arms, his eyes gleaming with a strange light.

“The remaining energy crystals can support my Laser Cannon for sixty shots. How about yours?”

Hearing Han Li’s words, Fang Yuan’s deep, crystal-like black eyes looked at Han Li and asked, “How about we give them a shot, huh?”

“No problem!”

“My Laser Cannon can still fire two hundred times!” Han Li replied, his gaze sweeping over the other four servants.

“And you all?”

“Together, we can fire a total of four hundred times!”

The four servant martial artists replied, their eyes growing firmer.

Over this period, they had experienced many battles, big and small, and the several servant martial artists had already figured out the temperaments of Han Li and Fang Yuan.

As soon as Han Li uttered those words, it meant they were ready to counterattack.

Next was to find a suitable battlefield.

Defensive counterattack!

“Three kilometers ahead, there’s a small hill, suitable for our counterattack!”

One of the servants looked at the information transmitted from his smart optical computer, a slight joy in his expression.

“Good, let’s have a counterattack battle on that small hill.”

“Everyone, first use your Laser Cannons to kill those threatening demon ox beasts, and then we’ll fight them to the death!”

“Good!”

“Good!”

Full-throated replies echoed across the grassland.

Whoosh!

The strong wind howled, and the speed of the four servants instantly increased to their peak, rushing quickly towards the small hill.

Arrive, set up the gun, fire – all in one smooth motion!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Streaks of powerful white light cut through the sky, directly shooting towards the leading demon ox leaders.

In just an instant, more than ten peak Astral Rank demon oxen were killed, leaving no bones behind.

The C5-grade Laser Cannon, capable of killing Universe Rank Stage Five powerhouses, was now being used to deal with peak Astral Rank beasts, feeling quite like overkill.

But Han Li and the others adhered to Chen Fan’s will — the world is vast, but life is paramount!

The Universe Apprentice Mercenary assessment was just a trial.

Their most important task was to protect their own lives.

As early as when Chen Fan gave them the Laser Cannons, he had already prepared a sufficient amount of energy crystals.

The purpose was to deal with unexpected situations!

Now, it had indeed come true.

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

As streaks of surging white light shot out, there was no ripple in space; it was exceptionally stable.

However, the bodies of these demon oxen were not as sturdy as this World Lord space, and they were directly torn to shreds by the light beams of the Laser Cannon.

Han Li and the six made rapid successive shots, continuously reducing the number of charging demon ox beasts.

Nine hundred, eight hundred, seven hundred... When the number of demon ox beasts was reduced to about three hundred, the distance between Han Li’s group of six and the beast horde was less than five hundred meters.

At this point, while they could still fire once more, they would surely be surrounded by the demon ox horde afterward.

The six looked at each other, all seeing determination and fighting spirit in each other’s eyes!

“Alright, let’s fight together!”

Han Li put away his Laser Cannon, drew out a long, narrow Battle Blade, and declared with heroic spirit, “Kill!”

“Kill!”

Almost simultaneously, Fang Yuan and the other five drew their weapons and charged forward.

Without exception, everyone wore a fierce, fearless expression.

When adversaries meet on a narrow path, the brave one wins!

A six-pointed star battle formation, carrying terrifying power, crashed directly into the demon ox horde, engaging in a life-and-death struggle with the already frenzied beasts!
