Moreover, they had followed them for so long without being discovered.
“Do you think these Japanese can find the address?”
Wu San’er’s words made Wei Zhou and Wang Bo think for a moment before shaking their heads helplessly.
“I don’t know…”
Wei Zhou glanced at the photo of the Concentration Fruits on the communication device and thought of the exquisite equipment of the Japanese. He said uncertainly.
“But I think they have a chance.”
“The thing in the leader’s hand seems to be some kind of detector that can detect the terrain within a certain range.”
“However, that thing is ridiculously expensive. A set of equipment would cost tens of millions…”
“This isn’t something an ordinary mercenary group can afford.”
“Coupled with the temperament of these people, I think they’re most likely the regular Japanese army, and they’re elites.”
After a few minutes of discussion, the three of them began to follow the Japanese’s route to the lake.
After walking for more than half an hour, Wei Jianbin, who was at the front of the group, suddenly stopped. At the same time, he raised his hand to signal the three people behind him to stop.
“What happened?”
“There’s movement ahead. Wei Zhou, contact the Shadow Leopard and ask it to tell us what’s going on.”
Upon hearing Wei Jianbin’s words, Wei Zhou immediately contacted the Shadow Leopard that had been following behind the Japanese team.
The Shadow Leopard immediately gave an answer—
“There are beasts fighting those people.”
Hearing Wei Zhou’s words, Wu San’er immediately became excited.
“Does that mean those people found the place?”
“Didn’t the mercenaries who posted the photos say that there are many high-level beasts around the Concentration Fruits?”
Wu Saner’s words were unanimously agreed by Wang Bo and Wei Zhou.
The four of them quickened their pace and walked forward.
At the same time, by the lake more than a kilometer away from the Stone Monkey Village, the team of 12 Japanese were fighting three identical beasts.
“Stupid!”
“Shanye! Why didn’t your perception sense these three beasts?”
“If anything happens to Maruyama-kun, everyone will have to apologize!”
The Japanese leader looked at the young man who was surrounded by four people and was being treated while holding his thigh. His expression was green and white.
Other than resentment and ruthlessness, there was also fear in his tone.
As for the Shanye who was scolded, his face was pale as he retaliated with the crystal core gun in his hand. At the same time, he had to take a look at the person who was being treated behind him.
Opposite this group of Japanese were the beasts of three relatives who looked like Ironback Pigs.
However, these three beasts only looked like Ironback Pigs, but they were actually completely different from them.
They were covered in armor, but they were golden pig-type beasts.
Moreover, they were much larger than the Ironback Pig.
Each one of them was more than two meters tall and was as tall as a person.
It looked like an armored vehicle.
[Name] Gold-armored Beast
[Quality] Purple
[Attribute] Metal
[Bloodline] None
[Level] Beginner Level 5
[Skills] Gold Splitting Shockwave, Indestructible Golden Armor, Golden Roar
[Overview] The golden-armored beasts are a kind of pack beast in the Beast Forest. They are covered in golden armor and have extremely strong defense. At the same time, they can also disguise themselves to a certain extent and not be easily discovered by their prey. Of course, their strong muscles also make their strength not to be underestimated.
The three golden-armored beasts suddenly rushed out of the human-sized bushes by the lake.
If not for their quick reactions.
Not only would the injured Maruyama-kun’s leg be injured, but his entire body would probably be pierced by those fangs.
“Summon your beasts!”
“Yes!”
Seeing that their crystal core guns could only make a series of “ding, ding, ding, ding” sounds when they hit the three golden-armored beasts, the leader decisively gave up on the idea of using guns and began to summon his beasts to prepare for a melee battle with the three golden-armored beasts.
Following the order of the leader.
Eleven warriors made of metal appeared in front of the Japanese and formed a samurai formation.
These warriors were divided into three types.
At the front were four samurais with a square metal shield in one hand and a short knife in the other.
In the middle were four samurais with long swords that were two meters long. Lastly, there were three samurais with crossbows and other throwing weapons at their waists.
It was obvious that this combination had been carefully selected.
When Wei Zhou and the others, who were hiding in the bushes dozens of meters away, saw the warriors summoned by the Japanese, they immediately raised their hands and aimed at them.
[Name] Mechanical Shield Warrior
[Quality] Blue
[Attribute] Machinery
[Bloodline] None
[Level] Advanced Level 3
[Skills] Shield Attack, Thrust
[Overview] A mutated beast among mechanical beasts. It uses Japanese warriors as a blueprint. Its close combat strength is not bad, and its metal shield can withstand a lot of damage.
“Blue? That looks very ordinary!”
Looking at the quality of the Mechanical Shield Warrior in the index, Wu San’er could not help but pout.
Of course, he had selectively forgotten that his beast was also blue-quality.
Wei Zhou continued to look at the other two beasts.
[Name] Mechanical Long Saber Warrior
[Quality] Blue
[Attribute] Machinery
[Bloodline] None
[Level] Advanced Level 3
[Skills] Slash, Charge Slash
[Overview] A mutated beast among mechanical beasts. It uses the Japanese warriors as its design base but without the defense. It has extreme strength and is good at using the long saber in its hand to split open all its opponents.
“Another blue-quality beast?”
Wei Zhou looked at the quality of the Mechanical Saber Warrior and could not help but mutter.
At first, he thought that as a regular army, these Japanese had to get some medium and high-quality beasts.
In the end, the two types of beasts were blue-quality.
Unwilling to give up, Wei Zhou looked at the eight warriors one by one. They were indeed of blue-quality.
This made him doubt his guess.
Could it be that these people were really mercenaries from Japan?
Just as Wei Zhou looked at the beasts in the last row with doubts in his heart, there was finally a change.
[Name] Mechanical Bow Warrior
[Quality] Purple
[Attribute] Machinery
[Bloodline] None
[Level] Advanced Level 3
[Skills] Accurate Shooting (Passive), Armor Piercing Arrow, Chaotic Smoke, Arrow Rain
[Overview] A mutated beast among mechanical beasts. It uses Japanese warriors as its design base and is good at long-range attacks. It also has self-protection methods and is more agile.
These three purple crossbow beasts made Wei Zhou’s eyes light up slightly.
At this moment, the three mechanical crossbow warriors began to reload the crossbows in their hands.
Wei Zhou looked at the metallic arrows and arrowheads before looking at the golden-armored beasts charging at the four shield-bearers.
Swish ~
The sound of three crossbow bolts being fired sounded almost at the same time.
It also hit a golden-armored beast at the same time.
After the arrow with the armor-piercing effect hit the golden-armored beast, cracks appeared on the golden armor that even the crystal core rifle could not do anything to.
Although the crack could not be seen without looking carefully, it made the Japanese team commander feel refreshed!
“Yoshi!”
“Continue attacking!”
“Long Saber Team, protect the Bow Team!”
“Yes!”
Under the command of the commander, the saber-wielding warriors who had been in the middle came out of the group and surrounded the archers.
The golden-armored beast was also very smart.
Seeing that they could not break through the defense of the shields in front of them, they immediately changed their target and wanted to circle to the side to charge.
The two groups of beasts began to fight with wits and courage.
However, the level of the golden-armored beasts meant they always had the advantage.
After charging neatly from the side, they directly knocked down two shield-bearers and three long-bladed warriors.
A large gap was immediately exposed in the not-so-intensive protective circle.
As soon as the three archers finished shooting, they were knocked to the ground by a golden-armored beast that rushed in. At the same time, its sharp fangs stabbed into the warrior’s chest.
