Chapter 608 - Disappearing Tridents

Chapter 608: Disappearing Tridents

Chen Zuan looked sheepishly at Lu Shu, who was holding four tridents. Lu Shu still seemed unsatisfied. The soldiers of the sea realized that this kind of attack did no damage to Lu Shu and stopped throwing their tridents.

Lu Shu waited for a long time, but realized that there was no movement. He jumped back into their line of defense. Mo Chengkong had wanted to thank Lu Shu, but Lu Shu patted him on the shoulder instead. “Thanks for your hard work.”

Mo Chengkong was confused.

Without Mo Chengkong as the target, Lu Shu would not have collected so many tridents. Of course, Chen Zuan knew why Lu Shu said so, but the others did not know.

“That was too risky of you,” someone said. “But your reflexes are very fast. If not, Captain Mo would have been in danger.”

“Ha ha, that’s because I was paying attention to the movements in the water, while all of you were distracted by the beautiful scenery,” Lu Shu casually explained.

This explanation somewhat convinced them. But everyone’s impression towards Lu Shu changed. It was just like when you were engaged in combat and were impressed by your comrade’s sudden fine operation. You would realize that this comrade was reliable. But even though this comrade was impressive, he was not as impressive as me! I will carry the entire match!

The Daoyuan Class students had grown from the military training. They were all waiting to show off their abilities. They were like a hero who had just undergone training. They felt that they were rookies who could immediately surpass others.

But some of them, for example Mo Chengkong, could see how Lu Shu was different from the others.

It was very obvious. Back then, only Lu Shu reacted and saved Mo Chengkong. His ability to act according to his circumstance was not one that ordinary Daoyuan Class students possessed. Furthermore, the question was that Lu Shu dared to go beyond the line of defense to catch the tridents. His mentality was very different from that of ordinary Daoyuan Class students.

Lu Shu moved back two steps. Before he could walk further, Mo Chengkong cozied up to him. “Expert, please don’t leave!”

“I’m not leaving.” Lu Shu sighed. “Captain, I feel that your name will appear in the history of training.”

Lu Shu truly admired Mo Chengkong. He really cozied up to someone powerful. He did not seem sloppy and had no shame. Yet, this kind of person could narrowly escape death…

At the same time, the attack by the soldiers of the sea had covered almost all the lines of defense on the Safety Island. All the Daoyuan Class students held their breath in concentration, waiting for the next attack.

Only Chen Baili could retrieve the relic. Chen Baili hovered in midair, carefully observing any movements from the soldiers of the sea. He was not particularly panicky. There was no use panicking.

If they spent too much time here, and when the Heavenly Network calculated that they had exceeded the time limit that their rations would last them for, there would be people deployed to deliver rations into the remains.

Perhaps even Nie Ting would rush here and complete their task in the remains.

Suddenly, an army from the soldiers of the sea rushed out from the surface of the water. In a flash, battles broke out all across the island.

Chen Baili chose to assist the area where the attacks were most concentrated. With a wave of his hand, a blue flying sword was sent down to the battle field. It shuttled back and forth among the soldiers of the sea. Its destructive power was terrifying!

At that moment, more soldiers appeared the side of the coast that had been momentarily neglected by Chen Baili! They realized that it was most difficult for them to deal with Chen Baili, thus they had used the lives of some of their soldiers as bait. The rest of the soldiers planned to create a gap in their defense.

The main areas of attack were the between the 42nd Battalion and the 48th Battalion.

The soldiers there raised their tridents and jumped over the stone wall of defense. Seeing this, Lu Shu became slightly annoyed. Why did his side have to the be the main target of attack? This was too much!

In Lu Shu’s eyes, each of the soldiers… were weapons that could run!

As he warded off the soldiers, Lu Shu shouted, “Captain Mo, didn’t you say that we won’t be attacked here?”

Mo Chengkong also shouted, “I was afraid that this would happen if I left you all behind!”

As Mo Chengkong wanted to get his troops to step back and wait for the aid of bigger troops, Lu Shu went against the flow and charged forth.

Lu Shu held a trident in his hands and rushed forward. The bronze armor on the soldiers’ bodies gave the most trouble. Not only were their standard long swords shorter than their tridents, it was very hard to break through the defense of the bronze armor.

But Lu Shu was even more impressive. He did not break through their defense. He used the trident like a wooden bat used to beat clothes while washing. His hits became more accurate over time.

Before their bronze armor broke, the soldiers of the sea had been hit to the ground by Lu Shu.

“This is the ability of a mid-tier Class D? Don’t play around with me, I am a mid-tier Class D too,” said someone in surprise.

The Daoyuan Class students, who had been scared stiff by the sheer amount of troops, suddenly felt less pressured by Lu Shu in front of them. “If you told me that he is a Heavenly King, I would believe you…”

A fine operation during a battle would make people feel that this comrade was reliable, but when an extraordinary fighter appeared eight minutes into the fight, even fools would understand that they had encountered a true expert…

Lu Shu shuttled back and forth across the battlefield, continuously finding soldiers of the sea to fend off. Even then, the enemy continued advancing forward. It was not because Lu Shu was not strong enough, but it was very tiring to cover the entire 42nd Battalion. He could not possibly take care of a hundred-meter long line of defense by himself!

Chen Zuan, who was by Lu Shu’s side, went for the kill. In the battle field, only he could match up to Lu Shu’s rhythm.

Amidst the chaos, the injuries did not stop. However, Mo Chengkong was indeed suitable to become a Captain. Every time someone in his team was injured, he would bring people to protect the injured and retreat. For a period of time, they did not lose any men.

Lu Shu’s attacks did not cause death, as he was only using his trident to hit people. He did not stab people to death either. When the soldiers of the sea passed by them, they were hit into confusion, but did not die.

Thus, the responsibility of killing off the soldiers fell on Chen Zuan.

“Brother Shu, where are their tridents?” Chen Zuan asked. Why did all the soldiers he was about to kill not have anything in their hands?!

As Lu Shu searched for the soldiers of the sea, he laughed. “Little sparrow, wearing bright clothes. It comes every spring. I asked the sparrow, why are you here?”

Chen Zuan was dumbfounded. Why did Lu Shu suddenly start singing?

He carefully tried answering. “The sparrow said, the spring here is the most beautiful?”

Lu Shu shook “The sparrow said, mind your own business.”

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +999!”
