The team had been marching for about two hours, and Luo Bi was panting, feeling almost disappointed with this desolate land. Suddenly, scattered shrubs appeared before them, along with various sizes of strange beasts carrying calcined crystal stones.
Qin Yilang raised his alertness. Luo Bi was a burden, and Qin Cui had no combat ability. He scanned the surroundings and pointed to a pile of rocks, saying, "Shao Chen, take them to hide behind the rocks first. You'll be responsible for collecting the calcined crystal stones later."
Shao Chen nodded. Qin Yilang paused, looking at Luo Bi and Qin Cui, "If it looks safe, you can help too."
"Understood." The two nodded.
Feng Ling took out an energy gun and handed it to Luo Bi, "Take it just in case." Although Luo Bi had a small defensive array disk, he was still worried.
Qin Yilang did not approve of Feng Ling giving the energy gun to Luo Bi. Energy guns, like the ancient Earth weapons made from Bifei stones, required energy stones to function, and their supply was limited, so they couldn't afford to waste it.
"We don't have much energy." Qin Yilang reminded Feng Ling.
"I know."
Feng Ling was unconcerned. Qin Yilang sighed, gave Shao Chen a few more instructions, and then nodded to everyone, pulling out a red Bifei sword from the air, shouting, "Go!" He led the charge.
Although it was a future interstellar era with highly advanced technology, when facing monsters and strange beasts, only cold weapons equipped with energy were the most lethal.
The other team members followed closely behind, grabbing their weapons from the air and rushing into the crystal beast herd.
Crystal beasts were second-level strange beasts, resembling pangolins. The largest were slightly bigger than a bull, and the smallest were about the size of a calf. They fed on sand crystal insects, lived in groups, held grudges, and had brute strength, but their combat ability was not strong.
This was their first battle, and everyone was full of energy with ample energy supplies. After just over an hour of fighting, they had almost killed all fifty crystal beasts nearby. More crystal beasts continued to gather, and Qin Yilang led the team to meet them, clearing the battlefield for Shao Chen to extract the calcined crystal stones from the crystal beasts' backs.
Although these crystal beasts were of a low level and easy to kill, their numbers were overwhelming. Wave after wave of crystal beasts charged out from the shrubs, surrounding the hunting team with their eerie calls.
Even a dozen of them bypassed the second battlefield and attacked Shao Chen, who was extracting the calcined crystal stones.
The situation was urgent. Qin Cui raised her energy gun and shot at the crystal beasts approaching Shao Chen. Luo Bi looked at the energy gun in her hand, unsure of what to do. Before she crossed over, she was just an ordinary citizen, not a tough female mercenary or anything like that. She didn't know how to use a gun!
"What are you waiting for? Shoot!" Qin Cui shouted at her, then shot down a large crystal beast with one shot.
Shouted at, Luo Bi had no choice but to try. She raised the energy gun and aimed at the crystal beast farthest from Shao Chen, afraid that her aim would be off and she would hit her own team members, just like the clumsy characters in the TV shows she had seen in her past life.
The first shot went off, but it missed the target and disappeared with a whizzing sound, who knows where it went. Luo Bi felt dejected, her lips tight, and she continued to shoot, still aiming at the same crystal beast she had missed.
Another shot, and it disappeared again. Luo Bi sighed, while Qin Cui shot down another adult crystal beast surrounding Shao Chen.
Luo Bi turned her head, focused, and continued shooting.
