Chapter 310 Enemies All Over the World, Terrifying Combat Power!
Fangzhou's expression had returned to calm.
Although he was about to face 90 elite cadets from other military academies who had been battle-tested, he was not afraid at all.
The students watching the game were in an uproar.
"Ark really got a good time this time."
"These principals and instructors are really good at having fun."
"I've always seen Fangzhou at the top of the rankings, and I really want to see what it looks like when Fangzhou gets ganged up on and killed by those wolves."
"Yes, I want to see you."
Watching from the sidelines, Liu Diewu said with a grave expression, "Ark is in big trouble now."
"It's not just a big problem, it's making enemies of the whole world!"
Standing beside Liu Diewu, Gu Yueyuan's tone carried a hint of excitement.
"It's normal to get ganged up on and killed, after all, there were 90 opponents."
Liu Diewu shook her head helplessly and said, "Even in death, there is honor. In any case, Fangzhou is the protagonist of this recruit competition."
Inside the simulated arena, Su Tiankuo had been observing Fang Zhou's changing expression. Suddenly, he coldly snorted and said, "What, are you scared?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhou gave a wry smile. "Principal, it's not that I'm afraid, but being targeted by so many people is putting me under a lot of pressure..."
Behind Su Tiankuo stood a beautiful and elegant female principal.
She looked at the handsome Fang Zhou, her eyes filled with concern and understanding, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you have three chances to be resurrected anyway."
If you can't survive this situation, then you'll have to give up on that portable concentration meditation array.
Upon hearing this, Su Tiankuo immediately puffed out his beard and glared, appearing extremely agitated.
"No! So what if the whole world is our enemy?"
I will watch you fight your way through, just as our race has done.
With that, he raised his hand and pointed, a beam of light flashed, and Fangzhou's figure vanished from its spot in an instant, teleported to an unknown simulated battlefield.
At almost the same moment, the other contestants in the arena were also randomly teleported to different locations, and the entire venue suddenly became empty, leaving only a few principals and instructors standing in place.
"It seems you all think highly of this little guy."
The principal of Longcheng Military Academy shifted his gaze from Su Tiankuo to the others, seemingly assessing something.
Su Tiankuo nodded, his tone revealing certainty, "His strength is insignificant to us, but I see potential in him."
"He is indeed an interesting little guy. Otherwise, why would we set such a difficult task for him?"
"Haha, come on, let's watch these little guys fight it out while we discuss the division of profits among our ten military academies."
The principal of Longcheng Military Academy suggested with a smile, clearly taking the opportunity to discuss something more important.
"Okay," Su Tiankuo replied.
On the surface, this competition is a contest between cadets, but in reality, it is a game between various military academies, which is related to the allocation of resources and the enjoyment of privileges in the coming year.
Meanwhile, 100 light screens were lit up in various corners of the arena.
The students watching the game connected to the screens of the matches they were interested in through their personal terminals.
Liu Diewu directed her companions, "Find the image of the Ark."
She was surrounded by a group of classmates from Haicheng Military Academy who had close ties with Fangzhou.
They all looked tense, their eyes fixed on the screen, their hearts filled with support and anticipation for their friend.
Fangzhou's performance not only affects his status and rewards in the recruit competition, but also his status and resource allocation at Haicheng Military Academy for the following year.
All of this is related to the vital interests of every teacher and student.
Therefore, they have no choice but to take it seriously.
As the strongest among the participants, Fang Zhou, a necromancer who rose from apprenticeship, naturally attracted the most attention from the spectators.
The moment the Ark was teleported, he immediately reacted and activated the [Sky Curtain Magic Bottle] in his hand.
As the faint gray smoke from the magic bottle rapidly spread, the environmental traces around the Ark were completely concealed.
The smoke, as if alive, slowly spread along the ground, erasing all traces that might reveal the existence of the Ark.
Immediately afterwards, Fangzhou took out the Undead Orb from his pocket, skillfully activated the energy core within the orb, and began continuously casting the [Summon Skeleton] skill.
As the death energy surged from the orb, skeleton warriors seemed to be summoned from nothingness.
They emerged one by one from the gray smoke, quickly forming a tight protective circle that firmly guarded the ark at its center.
With this defensive line of dozens of units, Ark finally felt a sense of security, and its tense nerves relaxed slightly.
Then, Fangzhou released the pearl bird Gugu, which had advanced to the upper apprentice level, from the sealed bone bell at his waist.
As Gugu flapped its wings and took flight, it provided the Ark with an effective means of scouting its surroundings. Only after doing all this did the Ark finally have time to carefully observe the place where it had been teleported to.
Looking around, Fangzhou found himself in a lush primeval forest.
Despite the vibrant life around them, strangely, apart from the occasional chirping of insects, there was no sign of any large creatures. The Ark carefully lifted its feet, trying to move forward without making too much noise, while carefully observing its surroundings.
The first thing that hit me was a cold wind that smelled damp and humus.
The aura seemed to emanate from the depths of the forest, carrying a hint of coolness that rushed into the nostrils, causing Fangzhou to shiver involuntarily.
The light in the forest was very dim.
Looking up, one can see countless ancient and withered branches intertwined to form a natural dome, blocking most of the sunlight.
The trunks of the trees are astonishingly thick; it would take at least four or five adults to encircle them.
The bark is covered with the marks of time, with moss and lichen clinging to it, adding to its ancient and weathered feel. Looking up, the sky above the forest is completely obscured by these dense branches and leaves.
Only a few faint rays of light pierced through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow on the ground.
The ground was covered with a thick layer of moss, and every time Ark stepped on it, it made a dull sound, as if walking on a giant sponge.
Scattered among this layer of moss are various strangely shaped fungi and vines, emitting a faint, peculiar fragrance, adding a touch of mystery to this forest.
Fangzhou took a deep breath of the moist air. After confirming that there was no poison gas, he finally felt relieved and prepared to face the upcoming challenge. He swung the necromancer orb in his hand and cast the [Bone Blade] skill.
A series of eerie lights flashed, and 50 skeleton warriors were instantly equipped with sharp weapons, fully armored, resembling a well-trained army.
Under the protection of numerous servants, the ark began to venture deeper into the forest.
Although the pearl bird Cuckoo acts as a "sky eye" high in the sky, helping Ark to see the approximate density of monsters, he still decided to take the most cautious approach.
Twenty melee fighters led the way, wielding bone swords and vigilantly clearing obstacles ahead, carefully inspecting every inch of land to ensure there were no ambushes.
The remaining thirty skeletons were divided into three groups, positioned on the left, right, and rear sides of the ark, respectively, to ensure that no enemy could ambush him from any direction.
Fangzhou, like a true undead commander, walked among the skeleton warriors, feeling at ease thanks to the meticulous protection measures.
Seeing their synchronized movements, Fangzhou felt satisfied and a gratified smile appeared on his face.
This damn sense of security!
The team slowly advanced in the direction designated by the Ark, which was the location of the monster that the Pearl Bird Gugu had just discovered.
Thirty meters, twenty meters, fifteen meters
Under the shroud of the undead, Ark suddenly waved to signal the group to stop, lest they get too close and be detected by the monsters.
Through the gaps in the trees, Ark gazed at the crimson figure from afar.
A venomous snake monster, who had risen from apprentice to master, was coiled up beside a large tree.
Its upper body was upright, while its tail was tightly wrapped around the tree trunk, as if it were ready to attack at any moment.
The venomous snake monster had an extremely keen sense of smell and perception, and seemed to have already sensed that something was wrong.
Its deep black eyes, with their narrow pupils flashing a cold light, scanned everything around it.
The upper body of this venomous snake-like monster bears some resemblance to that of a human, but its shoulders are unusually broad and muscular, making it appear even stronger.
Its skin is a sickly red, covered with disgusting pustules that look as if they might burst at any moment, releasing a highly toxic liquid.
Two sharp, venomous fangs protruded from the corners of its mouth, and a slender tongue would occasionally dart out of its mouth and then quickly retract, as if savoring the scents in the air.
Its lower body is a thick snake tail, covered with dark brown scales that completely envelop the entire tail.
This allows the Rotten Serpent to move freely and extremely fast through complex jungle terrain.
The Rotten Serpent race is renowned for its extremely keen intuition and superior perception.
They can predict the location and movement of enemies by sensing subtle temperature changes emitted by surrounding organisms.
This special ability makes them extremely efficient in hunting and fighting, and almost invincible.
However, as undead creatures, skeletons have no vital signs and therefore do not exhibit changes in body temperature. Furthermore, Ark and his skeleton army are hidden far away in the undead sky, completely unnoticed.
This made it impossible for the venomous snake monster to accurately determine the exact location of the Ark crew for a while.
Even so, the venomous snake's racial traits and instincts still made it uneasy.
It was acutely aware that something was definitely nearby.
"It should just be an ordinary monster—"
Fangzhou gazed at the venomous snake monster, assessing the situation in his mind.
He continued forward while casting a spell.
The moment the Ark set off, the Corrupting Serpent's keen eyes immediately caught the slight movement.
Its muscular upper body was taut and erect, with two swords held in front of its chest. Its body was slightly bent, as if it were poised to strike and ready to deal with any impending threat.
Under the Ark's spiritual guidance, the numerous skeletons had already split into two waves and quickly surrounded the enemy.
Although the venomous snake monster cannot perceive temperature changes, the slightest sounds it makes when it moves cannot escape its extraordinary perception.
The venomous snake monster's deep black eyes scanned the surroundings, eventually locking onto the movements in several directions.
The moment the venomous snake realized the enemy's overwhelming numbers, it was terrified and instinctively turned to flee the scene.
However, the Ark did not give it that chance.
He gently waved the crystal ball in his hand, and in an instant, a skeletal lock suddenly emerged from beneath the venomous serpent, binding it firmly. The pale skeleton not only blocked the venomous serpent's escape route but also extinguished its hope of survival.
The venomous serpent's body trembled violently, as if trying to break free from the cold restraints, but it quickly realized that this was a desperate struggle.
"Bone Spears!"
The Ark's voice echoed in the air, and with that command, a massive white bone spear descended from the sky, heading straight for the Corrupting Serpent Monster.
The spears, originally aimed at its head, ended up hitting only its abdomen due to the venomous snake monster's swift dodge.
The venomous serpent let out a mournful cry, but did not die on the spot.
Its strong body was still struggling painfully, trying to break free from the skeletal chains that bound it.
They didn't kill him outright?
When Fangzhou saw that the damage he had inflicted had not directly killed the Corrupted Serpent Monster, he frowned and pondered to himself.
Clearly, the Rotting Serpent's racial combat power coefficient is much stronger than that of cannon fodder creatures like lesser demons and skeletons.
At least, their combat power is comparable to that of higher-level monsters such as horned demons and hound demons. Although the rotten serpent monster in the distance was trapped and severely injured, it did not panic. Instead, it calmly swung its twin blades and slashed at the skeleton lock.
It understood that in this situation, panicking would only hasten its death.
Despite suffering immense pain from the enemy's magical attack, the Corrupting Serpent Monster could still sense that it possessed a certain amount of fighting power.
Under the relentless hacking of the venomous serpent monster, the bone lock formed from the power of death quickly shattered.
However, the loyal undead under Ark's command did not waste their master's efforts; they quickly arrived within the attack range.
A dozen skeletons that surrounded them from both sides rushed to the front of the venomous snake monster without hesitation, ready to launch an attack.
Given the skeletons' pitiful combat strength, the damage they would have caused might not have been very high.
However, the skeletons under Ark's command are all empowered by skills such as Dominate Skeleton, Brutal Aura, and Bone Blade, making them undoubtedly much stronger than their counterparts.
The venomous snake monster was knocked back a few steps by the skeletons. Before it could react, several of them had already surrounded it and launched a new round of fierce attacks.
