Li Changyin stopped talking upon hearing this, suddenly reversed his grip on the hilt of the Divine Light Sword Spirit, and forcefully plunged it into the ground.
The next second, the ground shook visibly, and the faces of all the researchers changed, sensing sothing dire was about to happen.
"Damn... Is there no protective asure under this defense circle?" Chu Jun jumped up, sword light penetrating from below nearly stabbing his foot.
"That’s more troubleso... Besides, to fend off attacks from magic spirits... there’s generally no need to guard the bottom..." Lei Qingfeng said awkwardly.
"We’ve beco sitting ducks; then what’s the point of this defense circle?" Chu Jun said frustratedly.
No one was in the mood to argue with him. More and more sword lights pierced up from underground, initially just a sword tip, then the erging sword lights grew longer, forcing everyone to scramble in panic. Seeing no place left to hide, an elderly researcher, due to a lack of agility, was unable to avoid in ti, and one leg was pierced directly.
"Get onto the equipnt; the bottom has reinforced plates and is not easily penetrated." Professor Xu shouted, urging everyone to climb on top of the equipnt.
Everyone scrambled onto the equipnt, standing where possible, hanging on the sides if not.
Chu Jun, Sha Chu, and A Fei helped the elders up, hanging onto the sides themselves, watching as the sword lights erging from the ground grew in number, nearly forming a needle board.
The sound of clanging under the equipnt was incessant, apparently the sound of sword lights striking the underside of the protective plates.
Crack!
The protective plates under the equipnt were pierced, causing several instrunts to malfunction and emit piercing alarm sounds.
Amidst those alarms, everyone remained silent, knowing this ti would likely end in disaster.
"Chief Xin, working alongside you throughout my life leaves without regrets. It’s just a pity I couldn’t help you complete that Demon Armor." Professor Xu smiled, extending his hand towards Xin Guan.
"Indeed, it’s a pity, but in these final monts, eting you ans heaven has not treated badly." Xin Guan smiled, extending his hand to shake Professor Xu’s hand. Having experienced life and death trials before, though still weighing life and death heavily, he remained exceptionally composed when faced with inevitable death.
For those engaged in research, eting soone whose thoughts are highly similar to one’s own is rare; many top researchers journey alone in unknown fields. Especially for research workers like Xin Guan and Professor Xu, eting a like-minded individual truly is a blessing from heaven.
Boom!
The equipnt was severely damaged, with so unable to operate normally, rendering the defense circle utterly ineffective.
Chu Jun, A Fei, Old Qian, Sha Chu, and others prepared to fight desperately, the researchers aware that their end was near, bidding farewell to old friends, sitting dumbfounded on the equipnt, or swearing loudly for relief even if death was imminent.
"Farewell." Li Changyin said casually, the Divine Light Sword Spirit embedded in the ground soared skywards, transforming into countless sword lights, rushing like a torrent towards the group.
Rat-a-tat-tat!
Seeing the sword light torrent surge towards the unprotected group, suddenly there was a rain of light bullets from behind, colliding with the sword light torrent.
Though those light bullets collided with the sword light, unable to shatter it and breaking themselves instead, the sword lights inexplicably deviated in direction, shooting elsewhere, none landing within the original range.
The group turned in surprise, seeing Li Xiu holding a Gatling-like Symbiotic Contract, shooting frantically, a stream of bullets pouring out, continually colliding with the sword light torrent, causing it to veer off course, scattering everywhere but leaving their position untouched.
"Li Xiu!" Chu Jun exclaid joyfully.
"Finally back." Sha Chu breathed a long sigh of relief.
Li Xiu pressed forward with the Forbidden Spear, stepping in front of everyone, and coldly said, "You guard the researchers retreating to Courtyard No. 7; leave this to ."
"Understood." Sha Chu and others hurriedly protected the researchers’ withdrawal.
"Be careful." A Fei said quietly, then also went to shield the researchers for their retreat.
"Li Xiu, you’re finally back." Li Changyin’s eyes flashed coldly, not ntioning Li Xiu’s direct connection to the President of the Longevity Association; just the matter of avenging his brother ant Li Changyin couldn’t let him survive today.
"If you had ntioned it earlier, I might have hurriedly returned to die sooner." Li Xiu smiled and said.
"It’s not too late now; dying late or early doesn’t really matter." Li Changyin said, as the Divine Light Sword Spirit’s radiance suddenly intensified, the sword light torrent beca even fiercer, the Forbidden Spear’s bullets pouring out unable to cover all the sword lights.
Li Xiu grabbed with his left hand, an identical Gatling appearing in his left hand, dual Gatlings fiercely fired at the sword light torrent, forcefully blocking all the sword lights.
The Forbidden Spear transford from the Evil Spirit Token, possessing identical functions to the real Forbidden Spear, with undiminished power.
"Oh, you actually possess dual Symbiotic Contracts, that’s indeed rare." Li Changyin ceased his sword light bombardnt, looked at Li Xiu with a sigh, and said, "Li Xiu, truly you are talented; to play with Demon Armor to such a degree, there’s only you in the world. Even in the Trial Taker path, you excel remarkably. If you hadn’t killed my brother, I would indeed want to spare your life, allowing you to continue as Commander of the Technician group."
