Chapter 103

No one provided Tang Ling any answers .

Or perhaps no one paid attention to the purple light from the start since everyone was concentrating on the monitor anyway because Anthony had appeared on the screen .

He was carrying his black longsword as he swung the carabiner around with his left hand and moved forward with Transient Steps, a move unique to the Purple Moon Warriors . He would appear at one point before he disappeared and reappeared at a further point in a flash . He traveled towards the targeted area at lightning speed .

At the corner of the screen was a precise 2D map that had two dots representing Anthony and the Raider dragon . Both dots were moving closer to each other very quickly .

2 . 2 km, 1 . 7 km, 1 . 1 km…

When there were only 900 meters between the two of them, Anthony suddenly stopped . As he quickly tossed the carabiner out, a very thin and almost invisible line was pulled out from the tactical movement disk on his back .

Kak!

A very soft clunk sounded from the monitor as the carabiner then opened and clung onto a thick iron rod of a destroyed building tightly .

Yang Kong saw Anthony set his safety point up, so he turned around to Tang Ling and the others and explained the scene, “The tactical movement disk is an important piece of equipment for the Purple Moon Warriors . The line stored in the disk is 2,500 meters long and it’s made with high tenacity composite metal and plastic gauze, also known as I rank material gauze . It can sustain up to 5 tons of drag force and won’t hinder the operations of Purple Moon Warriors below rank 3 . It’s voiced-control and its only use is retraction, instant retraction, and precise retraction . ”

Before the others could react to the amazing tactical movement disk and the meaning it held, Tang Ling’s eyes were already wide open .

Retraction, coupled with instant and precision, stated how important the disk was .

Just think about it . In a dangerous situation, controlling the tactical movement disk with his voice by simply saying ‘retract’, he would be instantly pulled back towards the safety point that he set . This function alone was already marvelous .

There might be many other ways to use the disk if he coupled it with his own Precise Instinct…

Tang Ling’s heart raced . Even his breaths were hurried . The tactical movement disk was like a life-saving ancillary tool that was made just for him!

The magnetic arm devices of the warriors paled in comparison! Speaking of which, since safety Sector No . 17 cherished its resources so much that even a single shot of the howitzer was considered luxurious, where did all those magnetic arm devices and tactical movement disks come from?

The same question popped up in Tang Ling’s mind again . It was the first time that he understood what Su Yao had exclaimed about before . “This bloody era sometimes makes me feel that we are very close to space, yet sometimes it feels like we have returned to our savage days . ”

Indescribable emotions followed this memory, but his attention was still glued to the monitor .

A 900-meter distance was only an instant for the powerful Anthony and the Raider dragon .

With his sword swung over his shoulder, Anthony was soon in front of the Raider dragon .

“There is no avoiding this . If you come down here, you must fight!” He raised his sword and a gale followed . The other beasts and smaller monsters that kept their distance from the Raider dragon moved even further away and hid .

The brainless zombies were also nowhere to be found . They were afraid to end up as lunch for the dragon, and it seemed like the evolved zombies with the ability to think had led the zombie hordes away to go into hiding .

Anthony declared his determination to fight . It also sounded like he was helplessly declaring how important this fight would be .

It allowed Tang Ling to understand two things . Firstly, Level 3 vicious beasts seemed to have a certain level of intellect, and they seemed to be able to understand the human language .

Secondly, the stronger the beast was, the chances of it simply engaging in a fight were lower . It seemed to be some kind of tacit acknowledgment similar to how the strongest beasts out there would never fight others on the same level unless absolutely necessary .

Whilst the two thoughts flashed in Tang Ling’s mind, in the screen of the monitor, the Raider dragon made its move .

A second ago, it was pretending to understand Anthony’s words and seemed to be trying to figure out a decision, but in the next second, it launched a surprise attack . It opened its trap and tried to bite Anthony .

Its infamous bite was considered the chomp of death . No extra actions were captured on the camera . All the monitor showed when it opened its mouth was a black crack that would appear in the void, and then the prey would automatically appear in its mouth .

This was the reason why Yang Kong believed that the Raider dragon possessed the ability to distort space .

Could Anthony dodge it?

The answer was revealed in less than a second as Anthony’s figure disappeared from the screen . However, he did not appear in the mouth of the Raider dragon either!

Where did Anthony go?!

The giant screen that watched over the entire battlefield quickly located Anthony’s figure . He was at the safety point that he had set up earlier .

He was just landing on his feet when the camera captured him . The left pauldron of his purple armor was torn, and he was already bleeding . He looked like he was in a bad spot .

Yang Kong frowned heavily .

Having used the life-saving safety point from the start and getting hurt from the first attack of the dragon, the battle did not seem to start well for Anthony .

High-tier combat was not complicated to watch, and it took very little time because the outcome would usually be determined within one or two attacks .

Compared to Yang Kong’s furrowed brows and strict face, Anthony was not burdened by his injuries at all . He turned around to the dragon that was charging at him as he licked his lips and exaggeratingly sneered .

“Whoa! I swear it looks like sh*t when it runs! It doesn’t even have that bloody space distortion ability . All it relies on is that sh*tty tongue! Its tongue can move at supersonic speed, or even faster than that . That’s why it left some black afterimages in the void . In terms of speed, I’m no match . So, what should I do against such a bastard?” Anthony spoke very fast but he displayed an unusual bout of excitement . As he spoke, a shining ball of light suddenly appeared in his left hand .

No, based on the sparks and the blitz of the electric current from the ball, it was a lightning ball!

“Oh my god, the Prince of Lightning, Anthony, has arrived!” screamed one of the female warriors in the command center in excitement .

Yang Kong glared at the lady with resentment .

In the next second, Anthony was covered in a lightning blitz . An even cheekier voice then came from the monitor . “Baby, you’re running too fast . Are you that eager to die?”

Before his voice even subsided, Anthony had vanished from the screen as he dashed towards the charging dragon .

A battle of extreme speeds occurred, and unfortunately, it was not something the battlefield camera could capture anymore .

All the monitor showed was many bolts of lightning blitzing around the lizard while black shadows were left in its trail .

Tang Ling activated his Precise Instinct and tried his best to capture some details because he wanted to know what kind of battle was going on but for the first time, his Precise Instinct failed him .

Other than vaguely sensing that the blitzing lightning bolt was Anthony’s body moving at an extreme speed and the black shadow was his afterimage, he could not see anything else .

“High-tier battles are always this boring,” Yang Kong put one of his hands below his chin and lamented dully .

Only he knew Anthony’s way of battling, and it was nothing but seizing the initiative from the dragon by attacking actively . Through high-speed changes in positions, it forced the Raider dragon into defense mode, hence avoiding its tongue directly .

But… was it useful enough?
