Chapter 341 - 341 Rescue from the Sky

341 Rescue from the Sky

Hearing Bai Miao’s words, Feng Ya fell silent.

She knew that the chances of success were very low, but she did not expect it to be that low.

“It can’t be helped. Our equipment, weapons, and storage items have all been taken away. Coupled with the location here, the chances of successfully escaping are too low. However, no matter what, we have to try.” Bai Miao’s eyes revealed a cold light.

Feng Ya nodded and then closed her eyes to recover her stamina and mental strength, preparing for her operation in an hour.

At this moment, Lu Yan and the others had already arrived not far from the mountain stream. Along the way, they encountered a few demon beasts and dealt with them quietly without causing much commotion.

Soon, Lu Yan approached the mountain stream and saw the dark-born patrolling above the mountain stream in front of him.

Everyone hid and their gazes landed on the dark-born in front of them.

“Looks like the location is not wrong. It’s here. Looks like this should be a stronghold of these demon beasts.

“I wonder if the combat professionals who were captured are still alive.”

Yang Weiyu looked at the dark-born in front of him and said excitedly and nervously.

He was excited that he had finally found the right place, but uneasy that he did not know if the combat professionals who had been captured were still alive.

Lu Yan’s gaze landed on the dark-born in front of him and he frowned. “What dark-born is this? I’ve never seen such a dark-born before.”

The other combat professionals also looked at Yang Weiyu in confusion. They had also never seen such a dark-born before. For some of them, this was even the first time they had seen a dark-born.

Yang Weiyu said, “This is the dark-born demonkin. They’re the smartest and strongest race among the five dark-born races. Their strength is relatively balanced in all aspects.”

Dark-born demonkin? Five races?

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows. He did not expect the dark-born to have five races. At this moment, Lu Yan thought of the five-pointed star on the Soul Space Necklace. He wondered if each point represented a race.

“Captain Yang, the auras of the dark-born demonkin in front of us seem to be around level 28 or 29. According to past experience, dark-born demonkin are at least elite level. Most of them are at the commander level and are still relatively difficult to deal with.

“The number on our side is somewhat lacking. The other party definitely has a lot of people. Just the number of people patrolling above alone is more than twenty. There’s probably more in the mountain stream below.

“Under such circumstances, we can’t be rash. I suggest we wait for the other rescue teams to arrive before moving together.”

A search and rescue team member looked at the situation in front of him and analyzed with flickering eyes.

The other rescue team members also nodded when they heard this and their gazes landed on Yang Weiyu.

They had come to search and rescue to obtain points from the military region and not to risk their lives. There were a lot of dark-borns in front and there should be more dark-borns below. There was no need to risk their lives.

Yang Weiyu frowned.

He knew very well that there were indeed quite a lot of dark-borns here. The other rescue teams were also rushing over. At that time, it was naturally best for them to move together.

However, the situation of the combat professionals who had been captured was still unknown. The longer they delay, the more danger they might be in.

At this moment, Lu Yan said, “I think we should take action immediately. We can’t wait any longer.

“It’s been a long time since they were captured. Time is tight and we have to take action immediately. The other rescue teams are on their way. It shouldn’t take long.

“I can use the undead to lure away a portion of the dark-born in front.”

Hearing Lu Yan’s words, Yang Weiyu made up his mind. “Alright, we’ll do as Lu Yan says. Time waits for no one. We’re here to save people, not to destroy these dark-born.”

Hearing Yang Weiyu’s words, the surrounding people could only nod.

Everyone’s gazes landed on Lu Yan, waiting for him to take action.

Undead began to appear from the surroundings. Then, a few undead swayed out and walked towards the dark-born in front of them at a moderate speed.

The appearance of the undead quickly attracted the attention of the patrolling dark-born in front.

However, when they saw a few swaying undead, the dark-born demonkin in front of them relaxed.

Then, the two dark-born demonkin quickly rushed forward, wanting to destroy Wang Lin.

However, at this moment, the swaying undead in front of him suddenly rushed towards the two dark-born demonkin.

Seeing this, the two dark-born demonkin hurriedly waved their long swords to block.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly darted out and directly rushed in front of a dark-born demonkin. The black shadow bit the other party’s neck and opened his mouth to swallow the other party.

Looking at Ao Yun beside him, the other dark-born demonkin was shocked and hurriedly warned.

The surrounding dark-born demonkin patrolling rushed over when they saw this, wanting to deal with Ao Yun.

Ao Yun sent the dark-born demonkin beside him flying with a slap. Then, he turned around and left.

After the dark-born demonkin left two clansmen behind, the other dark-born demonkin chased after Ao Yun.

Seeing this, Yang Weiyu’s gaze landed on the two figures in the team.

The two searchers nodded when they noticed Yang Weiyu’s gaze. Then, their figures moved and directly headed into the shadows of the trees at the side, quickly disappearing.

Shadows would flash past from time to time as they quickly rush towards the remaining two dark-born demonkin.

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows. Those two rescue team members were assassins and their concealment ability was very powerful. They could actually enter the shadows.

Most importantly, they could even move in the shadows. This was a very powerful ability.

“Why don’t we need them to investigate the situation?” Lu Yan looked at Yang Weiyu and asked.

With such an ability, it was best to go down the mountain stream to investigate the situation first.

Yang Weiyu replied, “No, they can’t maintain this ability for long. Moreover, they consume a lot of energy and won’t be able to make it that far down the mountain stream.”

Hearing Yang Weiyu’s answer, Lu Yan nodded. This was reasonable.

After all, if there was no limit to this ability, it was a little too abnormal.

Soon, the two assassins had already arrived in the shadows of the two dark-born demonkin. The other party had yet to discover anything.

Suddenly, the two assassins directly appeared from the shadows of the two dark-born demonkin. The daggers in their hands ruthlessly pierced into the backs of the two dark-born demonkin.

The two dark-born demonkin were completely unable to react before their backs were directly pierced. They only had time to slash back with the sword in their hands before directly dying.

The two assassins had already escaped into the shadows and dodged the attack of the dark-born demonkin before they died.

Then, the two of them appeared from the shadows again.

Their situation in the shadows could not last long.

Lu Yan and the others also quickly welcomed them. Then, everyone’s gazes landed on the mountain stream below.

Yang Weiyu looked down, and his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he could see the scene below the mountain stream.

Then, Yang Weiyu revealed a happy expression. “I saw those combat professionals who were captured. They’re not dead. They’re at the bottom of the mountain stream.”

Lu Yan looked down. Clouds lingered and he could not see the situation clearly at all.

It seemed that Yang Weiyu had a special method to see the scene below.

Soon, Yang Weiyu retracted his gaze and drew the situation below on a piece of paper.

Everyone’s gazes landed on the paper. They could clearly see that the captured combat professionals were being guarded by more than thirty dark-born demonkin.

Moreover, there were also many dark-born demonkin in the surroundings. There was also a cave ahead. It was unknown how many dark-born demonkin there were inside.

“What should we do now? Should we directly attack or…” A rescue team member asked.

Lu Yan waved the Netherworld Soul Scythe in his hand, and undead appeared in the surroundings. Soon, they covered the surroundings.

Looking at the large number of undead around him, the surrounding searchers also revealed shocked expressions.

They had seen Lu Yan’s battle previously and knew that Lu Yan had a large number of undead. However, they were still even more shocked now that they were seeing it with their own eyes.

Moreover, Lu Yan’s undead seemed to have increased a lot.

“Let’s directly rush down. We’ll land towards the imprisoned combat professionals. We should be able to surround them and save them first.

“With my undead around, it shouldn’t be a big problem to evacuate.”

Hearing Lu Yan’s words and looking at the undead beside Lu Yan, Yang Weiyu and the others also nodded in agreement.

Soon, Lu Yan and the others arrived above the imprisoned combat professionals.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Yan and Yang Weiyu were the first to jump down.

Seeing this, the surrounding search and rescue team also jumped down into the mountain stream below.

Just as Lu Yan had said, with these undead, it was still possible to retreat.

Since there was nothing to worry about, they would directly jump.

A large number of surrounding undead, including the ones with stronger overall strength, also jumped down. As for the other undead, they were put away by Lu Yan.

Just now, he had released a large number of undead to reassure the surrounding searchers.

Lu Yan held the Netherworld Soul Scythe and quickly descended through the clouds.

Soon, with a muffled sound, Lu Yan directly landed on the ground.

At this height, ordinary people would have long died, but it would not affect Lu Yan and the others.

Lu Yan landed beside Bai Miao and the others. He swept his gaze around and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Bai Miao and Feng Ya.

The surrounding dark-born demonkin were also stunned for a moment. They did not expect someone to descend from the sky.

Then, figures landed one after another, emitting muffled sounds.

The surrounding dark-born demonkin reacted. They flapped the wings on their backs and directly rushed towards Lu Yan and the others.
