"As expected, the final trouble has arrived."
Jin An said in a low voice, his tone calm but full of vigilance.
His eyes were sharp as knives, as if piercing through the air, directly striking the source of danger hidden in the darkness.
Just then, a low hum came from the ruins of Pangu City in the distance.
The sound seemed to come from the depths of the earth, carrying an eerie frequency that made one's scalp tingle, causing the entire battlefield to tremble slightly.
Then, a series of unfamiliar figures appeared on the edge of the battlefield. These figures were twisted and狰狞, and the aura they emitted made the bloody smell in the air even stronger.
"They're here."
Jin An's eyes narrowed, and the hand holding the knife tightened again.
These creatures slowly emerged from the smoke and dust, their movements steady and powerful. Their bodies were covered with a strange shell, some like rock, some like carapace, but all emitting an eerie luster.
Their limbs were much thicker than those of ordinary people, and their backs were covered with structures similar to bone spurs or sharp horns, as if every part had been carefully designed to be most suitable for killing.
Their eyes were empty and indifferent, without a trace of emotional fluctuation, only deathly silence and killing intent.
These creatures did not make any sound, but the moment they stepped onto the battlefield, everyone felt an undeniable sense of oppression.
"What are these things?!"
Loki's eyes widened, and the hand wielding the warhammer paused slightly.
"They look even more dangerous than those monsters just now!"
Whitebeard narrowed his eyes, coldly sizing up these newly appeared creatures, his voice low:
"They are indeed much stronger than those Five Elders. These are the opponents who are troublesome."
While everyone was vigilantly watching these creatures, Im was quietly observing everything through a mirror in the depths of Pangu City.
The corner of her mouth wore a faint smile, and her eyes revealed an undisguised playfulness.
"These guys are finally on the field."
She said softly, her voice with a hint of pleasure, as if looking forward to the next good show.
"Let me see more fun."
Her finger gently tapped the mirror surface, and the picture in the mirror began to undergo subtle changes, all the lenses aimed at those creatures.
Her eyes revealed indifference and expectation, and every action seemed like looking at the pieces being pushed on a chessboard.
The newly appeared creatures did not hesitate, they seemed to have no emotions at all, nor fear, and directly walked towards Jin An and others with heavy steps.
Each step was like a boulder hitting the ground, causing the ground to tremble slightly.
"Get ready, these things are not ordinary enemies."
Jin An said in a low voice, his eyes always locked on those creatures, the hand holding the knife exerted a slight force, and the blade flashed a cold light in the air.
"Come on!"
Loki roared, his warhammer raised high.
"No matter what monsters they are, just smash them!"
Before he finished speaking, those creatures had already begun to charge.
Their speed was extremely fast, and although their bodies were huge, they were as agile as leopards.
A monster suddenly jumped up, its claws pouncing straight at Loki's head.
Loki grinned, and the warhammer slammed down heavily, meeting the attack head-on.
However, his expression froze at the moment of the collision.
"Bang—!"
The warhammer hit the opponent's claws, but only forced the opponent back one step, and the claws were not damaged at all.
Loki's face changed slightly, he quickly jumped back, and cursed in a low voice:
"This guy's defense is... outrageous!"
On the other side, Whitebeard waved his long knife, and shockwaves struck another creature's chest.
The creature was shaken back several steps, but quickly stood firm, and rushed up again without hesitation, as if the attack just now was just a tickle to it.
Jin An was not in a hurry to attack, his eyes were sharp, observing the movements and weaknesses of these enemies.
He noticed that the power and speed of these creatures were far beyond the previous New Five Elders, and their bodies were exceptionally strong, making it difficult to break them directly with swords.
However, their movements seemed to lack flexibility, more like executing orders according to some fixed program.
"They are pure killing machines."
Jin An said in a low voice, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"But machines are machines after all, there will always be flaws."
His feet moved, and the long knife suddenly swung out, a sharp blade of energy slashing straight at the nearest creature.
The blade of energy accurately hit the opponent's shoulder, cutting open a piece of the shell.
However, the creature only paused for a moment before rushing up again, its eyes still without a trace of emotional fluctuation.
"As expected... their reactions are completely controlled."
Jin An said coldly, gripping the long knife tightly.
"Come on, let me see where your limits are!"
The air on the battlefield seemed to freeze for a moment, but then burst into an earth-shattering cry of killing.
Jin An, Whitebeard, and Loki launched their attacks almost simultaneously, their figures rushing towards those sudden creatures like lightning.
Long knives, warhammers, and spears brought the sound of tearing the air, aiming straight at those emotionless killing machines.
Jin An's figure was like a bolt of lightning, the long knife in his hand gleaming with a cold light, the blade slashing straight at the creature rushing in the front.
His movements were clean and neat, each knife was extremely precise, the blade with a sharp aura cut through the enemy's hard shell, making a sharp friction sound.
"Crack!"
The long knife accurately chopped on the creature's chest, the knife energy directly tore the opponent's shell, and green liquid gushed out from the wound.
However, the creature's movements did not stop at all, its eyes were still empty and unfeeling, and the claws in its hands suddenly grabbed towards Jin An.
"Tsk, this thing's defense is stronger than the Five Elders."
Jin An's eyes sank, his feet quickly retreated, his body dodged the trajectory of the claws like a gust of wind, the blade swept horizontally, and cut off the creature's other arm.
The broken limb smashed to the ground, splashing a cloud of dust.
However, the creature still did not show any pain, its body swayed slightly, and then readjusted its posture, and pounced towards Jin An again.
"As expected, it is something completely controlled."
Jin An said in a low voice, his eyes cold. He did not retreat at all, but accelerated the frequency of his attacks, each knife carrying a strong killing intent, directly hitting the opponent's vitals.
Not far away, Whitebeard let out a loud laugh, the long knife rotated in his hand like a windmill, each of his shots carried shockwaves, stirring up the dust on the ground, and bombarding the enemy group.
He jumped up, the spear raised high, and slammed it down on the top of a creature's head.
"Boom!"
The shockwaves spread out, the creature's head exploded directly, and the fragments scattered.
However, Whitebeard's eyes were still full of vigilance, because he found that the headless body was still standing, shaking a few times, and actually took another step, rushing towards him.
"These guys' vitality is really tenacious."
Whitebeard snorted coldly, the long knife in his hand swept horizontally again, shaking the other creature that was pouncing on him dozens of meters away.
He stepped on the ground, the ground suddenly cracked, and his body rushed towards the enemy group like a mountain.
"But no matter how strong you are, I, Grandpa, will still smash you all!"
Whitebeard's long knife suddenly stabbed out, piercing through a creature's chest.
He shook it hard, throwing the creature heavily to the ground, then stepped on it, crushing it completely.
Loki's battle was even more violent.
He raised his warhammer high, rushed into the enemy group like a roaring beast, the warhammer smashed towards those creatures with a strong impact.
His movements were unrestrained, but each blow was full of destructive power.
"Get out of my way!"
Loki roared, the warhammer slammed down on the ground, the strong shockwave spread out with him as the center, shaking several nearby creatures away.
In the flying dust, his figure looked extremely wild, and the warhammer was wielded impenetrably in his hands.
"This is your so-called 'research product'?"
Loki smiled coldly, his eyes like fire.
"It's nothing more than that!"
However, those creatures that were shaken away quickly stood up again, their empty eyes without a trace of fear.
Their movements seemed mechanical and cold, with a kind of unyielding tenacity, and pounced towards Loki again.
Loki licked his lips, a look of excitement on his face:
"Okay, let's continue playing!"
His warhammer slammed out, hitting a creature's chest hard, knocking it several meters away, and at the same time stepping on the ground, his body rushed towards another creature like a meteor, the warhammer fell heavily with the force of thunder.
