Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 1260: Chapter 75: Tide of Soldiers

Su Xiao quickly walked out of the village. Although he used the Boundary Line to pull down the signal flare before it could explode, it left a trail of red smoke rising straight into the sky.

If the signal flare had fully exploded, undead soldiers within a dozen kilometers would have swarmed here. But with only the smoke trail, the number of undead soldiers attracted would be limited.

As soon as Su Xiao left the small village, another signal flare soared into the sky and exploded about half a kilometer away from him.

Once this signal flare exploded, several more signal flares erupted in the sky within a few kilometers, instantly creating a series of red smoke spheres in the air.

The most attention-grabbing aspect of the signal flare was not the red smoke after the explosion, but the piercing sound of the explosion, which could travel far.

Su Xiao tossed the Eye of the Apostle into the air, and it flew upwards. He had already set coordinates with this mechanical eye to ensure he could determine his direction amidst the throngs.

The Eye of the Apostle has three functions: First is detection, often used by Su Xiao for reconnaissance ability. Second is the alert color, which marks enemies based on their strength, something Su Xiao rarely uses since he trusts his own judgment; strong attributes don’t always mean strong power.

As for the third ability of the Eye of the Apostle, it’s vigilance—it can monitor the situation within half a kilometer and warn of any suspicious creatures approaching. As light gold equipment, the abilities of the Eye of the Apostle are very practical.

With the third ability of the Eye of the Apostle activated, a green circle appeared in front of Su Xiao, resembling a radar. At the edge of the green circle were countless red dots, conservatively estimated to be over ten thousand. The green circle represents the surroundings within half a kilometer, and the red dots are the enemies.

The edge of the green circle is already filled with red dots. These red dots are orderly arranged and are moving towards the center at a steady speed, with Su Xiao at the center of the green circle.

Boom, boom, boom...

The booming sound drew nearer, and Su Xiao controlled the Eye of the Apostle to float higher. Being surrounded by the enemy is bad enough, but losing direction would certainly lead to his death under the Human Sea Tactic.

The Eye of the Apostle can guide Su Xiao, ensuring he has a chance to break through the chaotic army.

Amidst the rolling dust, Su Xiao spotted the first group of undead army. They wore refined armor, holding tower shields nearly two meters high, with the tips of long weapons protruding over the shield.

Boom, boom, boom...

The booming was deafening, the sound of thousands of undead army footsteps combined with the sound of war drums.

About 300 meters away, a circle of undead soldiers holding tower shields surrounded Su Xiao, who could only see a circle of shield walls.

This encirclement was not due to Su Xiao’s negligence but an inevitable occurrence.

The undead heavy shield soldiers surrounded Su Xiao with a simple strategy: slam him with tower shields and pin him with multiple shields, then stab with long weapons.

But before that, the undead army had a ’gift’ prepared for Su Xiao.

The shield wall around Su Xiao stopped advancing. Su Xiao’s next move was straightforward: find the commander of this undead army and kill them. Only when the army was leaderless would he have a chance to break out.

As for killing these ten thousand undead soldiers, don’t joke around. Even if Su Xiao cuts them one slice at a time, it would take ages, and during that time more undead troops would arrive, vastly increasing their numbers.

Not to mention tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands wouldn’t be exaggerated. A few hours ago, the undead clan had stopped attacking the Wall of God, instead deploying most of their army to patrol the territory, ready at any time.

Su Xiao gazed around, seeing nothing but shield walls. As for the commander of this troop, this wasn’t a drama; the commander wouldn’t step forward to say a few words—they hid behind layers of soldiers, not giving Su Xiao a chance to behead them.

Just as Su Xiao was observing his surroundings, the undead clan’s ’gift’ arrived.

Swoosh~

A whistling sound attacked from above. Su Xiao looked up to see a dense array of black dots overhead—spiral-shaped black spikes, the undead clan’s signature long-range weapon, ’Black Dusk Rain.’

A counter shield appeared around Su Xiao, as he prepared for the melee and wasn’t worried about running out of mana value.

Facing the melee, Su Xiao was confident for two reasons: his talent ability and the blade effect 2 of Dragon Slash.

[Soul Devourer]

Talent effect (passive): After killing a target, permanently steal 1-30 mana points and restore an equal amount of mana and life value (e.g., after killing, permanently increase 30 mana value and restore 30 mana and life value).

Note: Each derivative world can steal up to 200 mana points. Once the mana value theft reaches the maximum, Soul Devourer fully activates, enhancing recovery effect by 50% (even after successfully stealing 200 mana points, recovery will still depend on enemy strength, recovering the corresponding amount of mana and life value, increased by 50%).

Supreme Blade Edge Effect 2: Blood Thirsty Praise (passive), attacks with Dragon Slash convert 16% of dealt damage into healing effect to heal oneself.

[Wood Spirit]Equipment Effect 1, Wood Activation (passive·defense equipment form), Life value recovery speed +130 points per minute, Life value +1200 points, Body Defense +40.

...

With these three abilities, as long as Su Xiao isn’t instantly killed or exhausted in the crowd, the attack abilities of undead soldiers find it hard to kill him.

The Black Dusk Rain descended from the sky, and Su Xiao’s counter shield unfolded around him, covering him completely.

After several seconds of crisp metal clanging, the ’Black Dusk Rain’ ceased, leaving the ground around Su Xiao riddled with holes.

The first wave of Black Dusk Rain just ended when the second wave struck. Su Xiao remained motionless, waiting for the nearby undead soldiers to approach.

After three consecutive waves of Black Dusk Rain, Su Xiao’s counter shield above was covered in cracks. The surrounding undead soldiers seemed to receive orders and began advancing towards Su Xiao.

The sound of war drums echoed as undead soldiers marched in a coordinated manner, with the shield wall gradually closing in, filling the view with enemies—a situation putting tremendous psychological pressure. Yet Su Xiao stood unmoved, single-handedly gripping the handle in a Drawn Sword Slash posture.

The shield wall drew nearer, to one hundred meters, eighty meters.

When the shield wall was fifty meters from Su Xiao, long weapons protruded through the gaps in the shields.

Woo~

The charge horn sounded, undead soldiers roared fiercely, maintaining formation while charging towards Su Xiao, the wave of soldiers like a surging tide.

Su Xiao took a deep breath, feeling the ground shaking beneath him, as thousands of soldiers charged at him. Anyone with insufficient courage could feel their legs weaken.

Su Xiao felt no weakness in his legs. On the contrary, he felt his blood seemed to be burning within him.
