PFRG: Chapter 192

From afar, a huge number of alien species could be seen.

It was approaching the direction of the No 2 stronghold at an alarming speed.

This time, the four teams that had just resisted the third wave of monster attacks stayed behind, looking from afar at the others who were already ready in the front.

Lang Xuelin had a complicated expression. His eyes were fixed on the people of Dawn, who were spreading out one after another at the end of his field of view. He rarely had no smile on his face. “The number of this fourth wave is more than double that of the third wave. The number is really too much. If their front line can’t resist it, I’m afraid they need to think of another solution as soon as possible.”

Xi Qinxin glanced at him and said, “Do you want to abandon this No 2 stronghold directly? I know you want to find a way to resist the alienation before confronting the enemy head-on. If you really want to do this, I have no problem with it. But Captain Lang, this is only the fourth wave. If you give up resistance and retreat now, the four teams in front will all die in battle. The next five waves will depend on only the rest of us. Are you sure you can handle it?”

She paused and smiled. “In addition, didn’t Captain Chi of the Dawn team tell us to pay more attention to how they deal with these alien armies? The healing ability of their team is really interesting.”

“It is interesting.” Lang Xuelin nodded. “It is like it was created specially for this instance.”

Chi Ting took Song Xuefeng to look for them last night.

Initially, these teams didn’t have high expectations for the so-called ‘treatment.’ It wasn’t until they went through these treatment processes that they felt that the strange voices that popped up inexplicably in their minds had disappeared a lot. Their whole state of mind intuitively calmed down.

They didn’t quite understand what the so-called alienation degree was, but from the perspective of these top players, it could probably be understood as a form of mental attack.

Therefore, a big problem with this instance at present was that players would suffer a mental shock in the process of fighting against these monsters. Once they were unable to resist such oppression on the mental level, they would completely lose control like the previous team members and become monsters like those alien species.

Mental attacks had always been the most difficult thing for players in the instances, which made the healing system that could provide mental guidance particularly valuable.

Top teams like these were basically equipped with a player with personal healing skills, but even these captains had never seen Song Xuefeng’s ability to directly counter mental attacks in the instance.

Cough.

They felt a bit sorry for the healer of the team, but they did want to poach this person.

The members of the Shadow Knights had been listening nearby. You Guye cleared his throat and said, “Yes, I don’t think we have to worry too much about the number issue. Captain Chi from the Dawn team is a very capable summoner. He is also a humanoid summoner. I don’t know the exact upper limit of the number, but no matter what, it should be able to alleviate the pressure on the number to a certain extent.”

He thought for a while before saying, “If necessary, I can also go over and provide some support.”

Lang Xuelin laughed when he heard this. “The members of the Shadow Knights are indeed chivalrous and courageous. However, Captain Chi Ting’s personal skill is indeed quite interesting.”

As early as the first wave, everyone present had witnessed Chi Ting’s personal skill from both near and far.

There were probably only a dozen to twenty phantoms summoned at that time, but they were only responsible for cleaning up the aftermath. They basically just dug pits and buried bodies. Everyone was really curious about how they would perform in battle.

Just as this conversation was coming to an end, the alien army approached.

In the distance, under Chi Ting’s call, the phantom army just mentioned started to appear on the field one after another.

The team left behind watched the show from afar. Originally, they were just listening to Lang Xuelin’s words and looking forward to the next performance. Then gradually, their eyes started to become a bit strange.

They could roughly guess that twenty phantoms shouldn’t be the real upper limit, but no matter how they looked at it, this number was a bit too much, right?

From the initial few phantoms, they gradually increased to more than 20. Then 30, 40, 50…

The number of phantoms that appeared one after another continued to increase as if there was no upper limit. New figures kept appearing. 70, 80, 90 and then 100!

It was still going!

Seeing the originally empty plain gradually covered by such a mighty army of phantoms, even the usually calm Xi Qinxin couldn’t hide her astonishment. “Can the number of summons be so high?”

Even though no names were mentioned, the top summoning player present was You Guye. He was stunned at first. Then his face was filled with shame when he heard the words.

He still remembered when he first learned about Chi Ting from Qiu Ji. At that time, he just thought that he had bumped into a good summoner player from the new world. Now it seemed…

You Guye lowered his voice and said truthfully, “I can’t do it.”

The creatures he summoned were like soul-like species. Firstly, they didn’t have such obvious human forms. Secondly, in terms of quantity alone, the limit so far was probably around 70 or 80.

Originally, You Guye had been proud of such a number. Now, he looked up at the sky and then at the ground, trying to hide the embarrassment of being the former ‘strongest summoning’ player.

At the forefront, Chi Ting obviously couldn’t feel the shock coming from the others.

He continued to summon the phantoms from the bone beads. From time to time, he checked with the man next to him, “Are you sure you want more?”

“Yes, I want more,” Lou Yueren replied with a smile. He looked at the bone beads scattered around with interest. “Speaking of which, your beads were really flexible in the physical sense. Normally, I didn’t think they were that long when I saw them wrapped around your wrist. I didn’t expect there to be so many of them. How many people have you saved?”

“I can’t remember clearly. They were all rescue targets in normal times or comrades who fought side by side with me. I didn’t want their bodies to be scattered outside, so I just collected them. Some of them were buried when I passed by their hometowns. I didn’t know where to leave the rest, so I kept them with me,” Chi Ting answered Lou Yueren’s question casually and summoned another group. Looking at the dense army of phantoms around him, he confirmed again, “Isn’t it enough?”

Lou Yueren looked at the alien army that was approaching and roughly estimated the number. “Almost. It should be enough.”

As he spoke, he didn’t forget to confirm with Chi Ting, “Summoning so many really won’t consume too much energy?”

Chi Ting replied, “It is fine if I just summon them without using their superpowers.”

“That’s good.” Lou Yueren nodded. He stepped forward and waved to the others. “Then, everyone, please make way.”

The area that the Dawn team was responsible for this time was the center of the front line. They just happened to face the most direct attack of the alien army.

No matter how belligerent the other team members were, they had lost interest in the alien species that they had come into contact with too many times. Hua Qianmei waved her hand without even raising her eyelids. “Okay, Mr Lou, please start your performance.”

Ji Xingque still wanted to stretch his muscles, but as he stood a few steps away and looked at the tall figure in front of him, he couldn’t help lowering his voice to ask, “Old Song, what do you think Brother Ren is going to do? He doesn’t even let us take action. There are quite a lot of alien species in this wave. Is he really going to fight an entire army by himself?”

Song Xuefeng was forced to work overtime last night. He was already standing there in a drowsy manner. Hearing this, he raised his eyelids and said, “I think it is pretty good.”

Ji Xingque: “.”

He was unable to find anyone to empathize with him at all, so he could only look at Lu Nanling. “Little Brother Lu, why don’t you look anxious at all? Is it really okay?”

“It’s okay.” Lu Nanling wasn’t worried at all. He saw Ji Xingque gradually become confused and finally reminded him, “Have you forgotten what his special ability is?”

“Brother Ren’s ability, isn’t it shadows…” Ji Xingque blurted out. He was stunned for a moment before suddenly realizing. “That’s right, shadow! It is shadows!”

Chi Ting stood there with his arms around himself. He just smiled slightly when he heard such a conversation, his clothes swaying slightly in the wind.

The approaching alien army caused the ground to tremble slightly. After catching sight of the human figure, they instantly bared their sharp fangs and rushed over one after another.

Lou Yueren looked at the monsters that were so close. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew around him. The shadows that were surging chaotically under the scorching sun suddenly boiled up without warning.

The already noisy world was completely plunged into a lot of noise at this moment.

The black shadow blades that rose from beneath his feet pierced the monsters’ chests sharply.

The shadows under their feet, which couldn’t be shaken off instantly, became weapons that took their lives. Just as these monsters were rushing towards the Dawn people hysterically while wailing, dense and surging thin shadows instantly rose from the ground in front of them, forming a dense cage that blocked these alien species from escaping.

The sunlight penetrated the thin translucent film that fell on the ground where the shadows were. Under Lou Yueren’s control, it suddenly became the strongest line of defense between the fortress and the alien army.

Countless monsters surged up, and countless monsters fell down. The piled-up corpses were completely swallowed up by the darkness as the black shadows grew stronger and stronger.

It was clearly daytime, but these shadow blades that blocked out the sun and the sky seemed enough to drag the entire battlefield into the abyss.

Chi Ting stood on the other side of the screen wall, looking at the aliens screaming at the top of their lungs as if in hell. He suddenly smiled.

For a moment, the conversation he had with Lou Yueren at that time emerged in his mind.

—“Captain Chi, would you mind letting me show you more later?”

—“How do you want to play?”

—“Just borrow more shadows to use.”

As long as it was daytime, the number of shadows provided by the alien army and his phantoms were enough for this person to create a shadow kingdom with absolute power.

This little body was indeed quite fragile, but he had to sigh. Was this the power of a ‘long-range mage?’

The advantage in group battles was indeed unique.

Not far away, Chi Ting heard Ji Xingque’s dumbfounded sigh that completely expressed everyone’s thoughts. “Is this even possible?”
