The Strongest Captain in History (2)
The Strongest Captain in History (2)
He did spread his senses underground at some point, but he didn't find anything under his feet.
After that, he focused all his attention on his teammates.
At this moment, after he spread his senses again, Han Fei found a great number of Big Sword Water Fleas that were popping up.
It further suggested that this was an organized attack, and not that the crabs wanted to lay eggs on the shore.
However, the number of the Big Sword Water Fleas was much smaller than that of the Tide Calling Crabs. Now that someone had noticed them, everybody released their perception.
Still, their pressure was increased as they had to defend against enemies on and below the ground.
The guardians reacted fast enough. Hardly had the shadows of big swords emerged when purple smoke was released from the watchtower and the alarms were sounded again.
Several peak-level Hanging Fishers took action from the sky, and Zong Han was joining the battle too.
They wouldn't have done anything if the enemy was just the Tide Calling Crabs, because it was an opportunity to train the soldiers. However, it seemed that three thousand soldiers weren't enough to stop the enemy.
Han Fei instantly summoned the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp.
Han Fei kicked it and said, "Go down there and kill any creatures that you see."
In the meantime, Han Fei roared, "You Lingyun, come back. Wu Xiaoxiao, ignore the battle on the ground and focus on the underground. Gu Daliang, protect them. Leng Hui, work with You Lingyun."
You Lingyun frowned. "But there won't be enough fighters for the battle on the ground."
Han Fei smiled casually. "I'll take care of it."
Han Fei simply waved the twig in his hand, launching eight knife lights in the shape of a crescent moon that killed almost a hundred Tide Calling Crabs within thirty meters.
However, the twig in Han Fei's hand couldn't withstand the outburst of spiritual energy and exploded.
You Lingyun and the others, as well as the squads around Han Fei, were all dumbfounded.
What was this weapon? Was it so powerful that it could kill so many crabs in the blink of an eye?
Someone swallowed. Even though the Tide Calling Crabs were unremarkable, they were still level-41 creatures! They shouldn't be underestimated!
Han Fei pressed forward. Ten Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Daggers suddenly appeared next to him and followed him into the tide of crabs.
Leng Hui exclaimed, "Have you lost your mind?"
You Lingyun pleaded. "Come back. The situation is not as serious as it seems."
However, in the next second, they saw dozens of daggers swirling around Han Fei and sweeping on the battlefield like a mincer while Han Fei charged a thousand meters forward and then turned back.
In more than one minute, a great number of Tide Calling Crabs were minced.
Although the shadows of swords kept stabbing out of the sand, Han Fei was able to jump and dodge, and none of them hit him at all.
"Huh?"
The few four-star peak-level Hanging Fishers were stunned. Was this man really an advanced Dangling Fisher?
Zong Han, commander of the Eighth Battalion, frowned, surprised that all ten ultra-quality spiritual weapons had sealed souls.
When he asked for new captains, his superior only told him that they would give him someone strong.
After Zong Han learned that Han Fei was merely an advanced Dangling Fisher, although he didn't underestimate Han Fei, he thought that it would be hard for the man to work as a captain. However, from what he had seen, this man seemed unbelievably strong!
You Lingyun and the others all widened their eyes. While they were fighting and retreating, Han Fei had finished a round trip behind the enemy line.
Wu Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "How strong is our captain exactly?"
Gu Daliang's eyes widened. "This captain is good! I like him!"
You Lingyun's eyes flashed. "It isn't a good thing that he's too strong. How long do you think he can be our captain if he's too strong?"
Everybody became grim, as it did make sense. Considering Han Fei's performance, it probably wouldn't be hard for him to reap 300,000 points.
Han Fei, however, didn't think of that. He was fine with a drill, but the battle going on was apparently more threatening than a drill. Although everybody was still capable of fighting, there would be lots of casualties soon.
He would rather not see dozens of people killed in nothing more than a drill.
Besides, he didn't show any astounding skills. He only used ten Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Daggers, and the movement and agility he demonstrated was something that a four-star Hanging Fisher was capable of too.
Han Fei was ready to come back. He believed that everybody could hold up for a while now that he had reduced their pressure.
But before he returned to his team, Zong Han had said, "Han Fei, can you cut through the battlefield from the middle of it?"
Han Fei was briefly stunned, wondering if it was too high profile.
Zong Han then said, "Don't worry. If you can do that, it only proves that you're a genius, but it can't prove that you are a Heavenly Talent."
Hearing that, Han Fei immediately replied, "Of course."
Then, Han Fei, with his ten Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Daggers, charged from south to north. This trip was almost fifty kilometers long, and it would take some time to go there and then come back.
As a result…
All the guardians and the Eighth Battalion saw a circle of shiny blades rolling dozens of meters before them and cutting apart all the Tide Calling Crabs that were in their way even though they were protecting themselves with their giant pincers.
The Tide Calling Crabs' pincers might be hard, but not as hard as the ultra-quality spiritual weapons with sealed souls.
Someone shouted, "Look, are my eyes deceiving me? I think that's an advanced Dangling Fisher!"
"That guy is so strong! It's like he's just cutting the grass out there!"
"Look, all the weapons that he uses are ultra-quality spiritual weapons! Is he a Heavenly Talent from a noble family?"
"He must be from the Thousand Star City. Could he be from that Heavenly Sword Sect?"
"You must be blind! Everybody from the Heavenly Sword Sect uses swords, and this one uses daggers. However, since his body is apparently tempered, he might be from the Mountain Sea Pavilion."
"That's not true. He could also be from the Grand Void Academy."
The Eighth Battalion was dumbfounded, particularly Guo Wen, the captain of the 31st squad. His mouth was open wide.
"Damn it. Why was such a strong captain assigned to the 37th squad? We can't compete with them anymore."
While Han Fei cut through the battlefield, the few peak-level Hanging Fishers all carried out their ultimate tricks.
Zong Han, for instance, was holding a long spear that emitted an intimidating aura. As he threw out the spear, a fiery dragon flew out of the void and created a path of flames, causing a shock wave thirty meters wide and more than five thousand meters long and annihilating all the Tide Calling Crabs within the range.
One of the guardians was swinging two balls of light in his hand among the Tide Calling Crabs as if he were reaping wheat.
Another person summoned a tremendous amount of vines that pierced through hundreds of Tide Calling Crabs.
While Han Fei cut through the battlefield, five peak-level Hanging Fishers took action and cleared a large area.
By the time Han Fei charged back, they had already initiated the fifth round of attacks.
In the sky, the second legion of guardians arrived. They landed and replaced the first legion of guardians, charging at the enemy.
That marked the beginning of their counterattack.
The two legions of guardians and the Eighth Battalion, altogether almost six thousand people, pressed on for dozens of kilometers.
At this moment, Han Fei had returned to his team, and his teammates looked at Han Fei weirdly as if he were a monster.
"Why are you all looking at me? You could've done the same if you had ultra-quality spiritual weapons."
Leng Hui gasped. "No, I couldn't! My body hardness, speed, and spiritual power are not as good as yours…"
Wu Xiaoxiao nodded. "That's right. Your performance was unbelievable!"
Gu Daliang added, "I wouldn't have dared to fight that way even if my weapon box were full of weapons."
Han Fei grinned. "I was only trying to earn some points for you, so that you can get some materials to build weapons."
Han Fei was holding two knives as he talked. He had recalled the Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Daggers, which were no longer needed now that the reinforcements had arrived.
Suddenly, Han Fei sensed something and asked You Lingyun, "What is a crab that's red, more than twenty meters long, and has iron stings all over its body?"
You Lingyun was confused for a moment, and then Leng Hui said, "A Wolf Crab. But Wolf Crabs aren't that big. It must be a Wolf King Crab…"
BAM!
All of a sudden, Zong Han flew to the sky. Floating in midair, he grabbed a spear and hurled it down.
Meantime, he roared, "There's a Wolf King Crab! Everybody, assist me!"
Han Fei's teammates were all shocked and then looked at him. Was it really a Wolf King Crab?
But it must be still more than three thousand meters away.
Han Fei realized that the nearest Hanging Fisher was more than ten kilometers away, and that he was closest to the enemy. Also, he perceived that the Wolf King Crab blocked Zong Han's spear with its pincers.
Han Fei quickly took action. He soared three times faster than before, and one of his fists turned dark red with overwhelming energy surging out. He seemed to be setting the clouds on fire.
BAM!
An illusionary fist more than five meters long appeared a thousand meters away and crushed all the Tide Calling Crabs on the way at an incredible speed.
Boom…
One of the big crabs was flung dozens of meters away with a big hole on its shell.
Zong Han had just blocked the iron stings that the Wolf King Crab shot out. He launched another long spear and nailed the Wolf King Crab to the ground.
After the Wolf King Crab died, all the Tide Calling Crabs retreated, and so did the Big Sword Water Fleas in the sand.
Zong Han landed and tilted his head, looking at Han Fei with his eyelids trembling.
He was shocked that Han Fei's punch was as powerful as his spear. He almost believed that Han Fei wasn't an advanced Dangling Fisher but another commander transferred from a different place.
