Chapter 877 Arrival at Zhenyuan Pass
Su Chen had fought against the Merfolk army before and knew that they were quite powerful.
In his view, the Merfolk had a numerical advantage and should theoretically be able to overwhelm the Lava Clan's crab soldiers.
However, to his surprise, the crab soldiers were even stronger than the merfolk.
They can fight three or even four opponents at once and still hold their own!
Seeing that the situation was getting close, Yi Chen's expression darkened, he gripped his spear tightly, and charged towards one of the crab soldiers.
Su Chen raised an eyebrow.
He could sense a slight energy fluctuation from the tip of Yi Chen's weapon!
Based on this, Yi Chen should be at the peak of D+ strength.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to use energy so freely!
Upon seeing Yi Chen charging in, the crab soldiers first swung their giant hammers, forcing back the merman soldiers around them.
Then it quickly stepped forward and slammed its giant hammer down on Yi Chen.
Yi Chen did not retreat. Instead, he roared and charged towards the giant hammer.
His muscles bulged high, unleashing tremendous power, and he forcefully blocked the crab soldier's hammer blow with his spear.
The crab soldiers seemed to have not expected that Yi Chen was so strong.
Before it could react, Yi Chen pushed it upwards sharply, sending the giant hammer flying back.
Then he raised his spear and thrust it fiercely into the crab soldier's chest.
The crab soldiers didn't have time to retract their giant hammers, so they had to use their crab shells to take Yi Chen's attack head-on.
Yi Chen's strength is not to be underestimated.
He thrust his spear hard into the crab soldier's shell.
Although it failed to pierce through, the immense force caused the crab soldier to involuntarily stagger back several steps and land on his backside.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yi Chen quickly pressed forward.
Before the crab soldier could react, a spear pierced its chest cavity through a gap in its shell.
The crab soldier let out a miserable scream, struggled wildly with its legs for a few moments, and then died!
Seeing their commander so easily take down a crab soldier, the merfolk soldiers couldn't help but cheer!
"Well done, Lieutenant Yi!"
Even Liu Guang couldn't help but applaud Yi Chen.
Yi Chen felt a little smug and was about to give Su Chen a provocative look when he suddenly sensed something was wrong.
A tremendous force crashed into us!
Yi Chen was knocked away and fell heavily to the ground.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and used his energy to protect his back, thus avoiding serious injury!
Yi Chen struggled to lift his head and look at the person who had ambushed him.
The creature that ambushed Yi Chen was also a member of the Lava Clan.
Its appearance is exactly like an enlarged version of a lobster!
The lowest race of the Lava Clan are the Crab Soldiers, who are currently fighting against the Merfolk.
A cut above them are the shrimp generals before us.
Unexpectedly, there was also a shrimp general among these crab soldiers.
Yi Chen frowned.
But the next moment, his pupils contracted.
Because another shrimp suddenly appeared from the side!
Yi Chen's heart sank.
If there's only one shrimp general, taking him down is a piece of cake.
But if there are two people, it will be a bit difficult.
The two shrimp did not rush forward.
They swung their steel forks, and two invisible energies emanated from them.
The crab soldiers' eyes instantly turned blood red when affected by these energies.
Not only did their movements become faster, but their strength also increased significantly.
The merfolk soldiers, who had been evenly matched with them, suddenly began to retreat.
After doing all this, the two shrimp generals charged towards Yi Chen!
They flanked each other from the left and right, forming a pincer movement!
Yi Chen dared not be careless in the slightest and quickly swung his spear to fight the two enemies.
Both shrimp generals are D+ combat power, and in a one-on-one fight, they would never be a match for Yi Chen.
But when the two of them attacked at the same time, Yi Chen found it somewhat difficult.
Although he fought back desperately, he still fell into a disadvantageous position.
"clang!"
A steel fork struck Yi Chen heavily.
Despite the armor protecting his vitals, the immense impact still sent Yi Chen flying.
He struggled to his feet and coughed up a mouthful of blood!
Seeing that his side was falling into a disadvantageous position, Liuguang became anxious!
"Su Chen, can you help them...?"
Su Chen was somewhat annoyed by Yi Chen's arrogance and conceit.
However, he still needed Yan Yue's help to find a way for Luo Xiaotian and the others to breathe underwater.
"How could I refuse the princess's request?"
Su Chen smiled faintly.
"Xiao Luo, let's help them!"
"Yes!"
Luo Xiaotian immediately called on the others to go forward and help the merman soldiers.
With the addition of humans, the merfolk soldiers were able to barely hold on.
the other side.
Before the wounded Yi Chen could catch his breath, two shrimp generals attacked again.
Just as Yi Chen blocked the attack of one of the shrimp, another shrimp launched an attack from behind!
My life is over!
This thought had just flashed through Yi Chen's mind!
Then I heard the lobster behind me let out a scream!
It turned out that Su Chen made the move!
Just as the lobster attacked Yi Chen from behind, Su Chen ambushed it with lightning speed.
The lobster's hard shell is nothing compared to the Xuanjin Longsword!
The long, black gold blade, imbued with fighting spirit, easily pierced the shrimp shell and cleaved into the shrimp general's body!
Seeing its companion die a horrible death, the remaining shrimp was terrified!
After hesitating for a moment, it let out a series of strange cries, and then walked away without looking back.
Without hesitation, the crab soldiers quickly followed the shrimp general in retreat!
At this time, Su Chen had not fully recovered and did not intend to pursue.
The merfolk soldiers suffered heavy losses in the battle just now, so Yi Chen naturally didn't want to pursue them.
After the Lava Clan retreated, Yi Chen hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Su Chen and whispered,
"Thank you!"
"Lieutenant Yi, may I enter Zhenyuan Pass now?"
Su Chen said with a half-smile.
Yi Chen was immediately embarrassed.
If he were human, his face would probably be flushed red by now.
"Yes...of course it is!"
After cleaning up the battlefield, the group continued their journey.
Compared to before, Yi Chen no longer harbors as much hostility.
"Strange, how did the Lava Clan end up here?"
Liu Guang asked in confusion.
"This matter is extremely urgent and important. Report to the general immediately upon returning!"
Yi Chen said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen couldn't help but chuckle.
"Isn't it normal for the enemy to flank around to the rear during a battle between two armies?"
Liu Guang gently shook her head.
"Zhenyuan Pass is not what you imagine. You'll find out when you get there."
Su Chen smiled and said nothing more.
After traveling for a while longer, the coral reefs ahead suddenly disappeared completely.
Suddenly, a magnificent and imposing city came into view.
Su Chen understood why Liu Guang and Yi Chen were so surprised that the Lava Clan appeared in the rear!
