Chaos Le Zilong's Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 234 Fear of Monsters

The person in this team holding the testing instrument should be a repairman, who is constantly checking the damage to the spacecraft.

And the one holding the gun should be a combatant.

Just when Ronnie was curious about why they were alert to the sky, he suddenly saw several dark shadows flying rapidly from the sky and rushing towards him.

After noticing these dark shadows, those with guns also opened fire.

These shadows were covered in horny armor similar to insects, with skinny and slender bodies, disproportionately elongated limbs like dead wood, and a pair of bat-like shrunken wings behind them. The most distinctive feature was their faces, which looked like monsters, but one could tell at a glance that they were extremely terrified, as if they were suffering from some unspeakable torture, which was in stark contrast to their behavior of attacking without regard for casualties.

Ronnie glanced at the guns in those people's hands. They should be the most basic Gauss rifles, which use electromagnetic accelerated bullets to kill the enemy. They have strong penetrating power and are very common space combat equipment.

Even the Gauss rifle, which had extremely strong penetrating power, could only leave a penetrating hole on the monsters. Even if it hit the head, it would recover quickly.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this scene, the leader who should be the captain cursed. Just as he was struggling internally, seeing that the group of monsters were about to rush over, he no longer hesitated and quickly gave orders.

"Change weapons!"

The others who received the order immediately dropped their Gauss rifles, took out retractable hot-melt cutters from their belts, and fought with the monsters.

This scene made Ronnie look confused.

No, why would you use a knife to deal with an enemy that even a Gauss rifle can't deal with? Even if the melta knife is very sharp, with the recovery ability of those monsters, wouldn't it be a death sentence to go up and fight them in close combat? It's better to use a Gauss rifle to fight and retreat at the same time, like a kite.

However, what happened next made Ronnie raise his brows.

The monsters that were cut by the hot-melt cutting knives did not recover as before, but for some reason, these monsters became even more violent.

Out of curiosity, Ronnie opened his senses and planned to investigate carefully.

Through perception, Ronnie discovered that there was a special energy in these people's bodies, and this energy was conducted and attached to the hot-melt cutting knife. After hitting the monster, this special energy would attach to the monster's wound and prevent recovery.

"Is this... the power of emotions? And those monsters seem to be catalyzed by emotions, apparently fear. The power system of this world is quite interesting."

While Ronnie was talking to himself, Owen beside him was watching the battle with shining eyes. He even picked up a branch and imitated the fighting of those people holding thermo-melt cutters.

Seeing him like this, Ronnie had a strange expression on his face, a bit like looking at Seth when he was still in his middle school years.

Ronnie shook his head and decided not to think about it. He was going to take action. After all, he still had many questions he wanted to ask.

On the battlefield, people who were originally fighting hard suddenly saw those monsters being pressed to the ground by some force in an instant. No matter how they screamed and roared, they were unable to break free.

"It's an interesting battle. Can you tell me about it?"

Hearing this, the leading captain suddenly turned his head and looked at Ronnie who was slowly approaching with a wary look.

"Another monster? No! It can communicate, so it shouldn't be one of those things."

The captain muttered to himself and looked up at the tall Ronnie in front of him.

"Thank you for your help, sir."

Although he thanked him, his hand tightly gripping the weapon proved that he was still on guard against Ronnie.

Seeing this, Ronnie didn't care.

"Now is not the time to talk. I have a lot of questions to ask you after I finish these things."

After saying that, Ronnie didn't give the captain a chance to speak, and looked at the monsters that he had pressed to the ground with his telekinesis.

Ronnie casually cast a flaming magic spell and hit one of the monsters. He then watched the monster change quietly.

Under Ronnie's gaze, the monster burned by the explosion let out a painful roar, and the keratin armor on its surface was carbonized little by little due to the high temperature, but that was all.

Seeing this scene, Ronnie couldn't help but frown.

In his perception, these monsters were at most level four in strength. Facing the explosive fire magic just now, they should have been burned to ashes in an instant. But for some reason, there was a special force around these monsters that maintained its existence.

Ronnie, who didn't believe in evil, increased his magic output again.

In just a moment, the explosive flames that originally covered the monster's entire body turned black, and the temperature increased exponentially. Soon, the energy that maintained the monster's existence was broken, and the explosive flames burned the monster to ashes.

What made Ronnie frown was that even though it was burned to ashes, that special energy did not dissipate, but instead wrapped up the ashes and glued them together bit by bit into the original monster.

"A monster with immortality? It doesn't seem like that."

Shaking his head, Ronnie still couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up thinking about it. Since these monsters had gained immortality-like characteristics due to that special energy, he might as well just use the power of chaos to wipe them out.

As the captains watched in horror, Ronnie threw out a ball of gray-white energy that emitted terrifying power. Just as it came into contact, the monsters wailed as they were corroded and assimilated into gray-white rotten flesh. As Ronnie controlled it, they were gradually consumed.

"You actually killed fear!" The captain looked at Ronnie in disbelief.

"Fear? Is that the name of a strange monster?" Ronnie muttered, then looked at the captain. "Can you tell me the details?"

Hearing this, the captain looked a little strange.

"You don't know fear? Shouldn't this be common sense?"

Hearing this, Ronnie shrugged without further explanation.

"This is not the place to talk, and I'm also very curious about your spaceship. Can we go inside and talk?"

Seeing this, the captain tactfully did not ask any further questions.

"Okay, but you have to wait for our engineers to pull the spaceship out of the ground. But I don't think you can get in with your size."

Before the captain could finish his words, he saw Ronnie shrink again and become two meters in size.

"Let's go."

At this time, Owen also ran over.

"I also need to go."

Looking at Owen, whose face was full of innocence and curiosity, Ronnie's mouth twitched.

This kid is truly... fearless.

But it doesn't matter if he's the only one left, so just follow him.

On the engineer's side, after assessing the damage to the spacecraft, he controlled the mecha drone and, together with the spacecraft with the anti-gravity device activated, pulled it out of the ground and brought it to a steady stop on the ground.
