Chapter 6:Is my brother tough enough?

"Clock Over!"
Of the five adult Zerg, only three remain.
However, the three adult Zerg were still a considerable problem, and Liz was already slightly out of breath.
Since his transformation, he has used clock-up three times and fought three battles, which has depleted his stamina considerably.
To escape my current predicament,I must quickly eliminate the three Zerg and break through this encirclement!
"Coo coo coo"
The burial Zerg on the side emitted loud chirping sounds.
Including the larvae, all the Zerg began to gradually shrink their encirclement.
Clearly, their aim was to limit Liz's activity area before launching a coordinated attack to tear his prey apart!
Without the slightest hesitation, Liz immediately took out the magic stone and threw it out.
The thrown magic stone flashed in mid-air, and several figures jumped out from within the light.
In the blink of an eye, several ghouls fell into the squeezed space.
[ghoul, phantom]
[Rank: F-class monster]
[Possessing superhuman strength and a powerful physique, capable of shooting extremely hot stones from his left arm, and wielding a double-headed fork as his primary weapon. A mass-produced, monstrous grunt created from magic stones, with exceptionally low intelligence.]
Seeing the information about the ghoul in his eyes, Liz breathed a slight sigh of relief.
If a ghoul's fighting ability is inferior to that of a Zerg larva, then he's in big trouble.
I just don't know if the magic stone can be recycled from ghouls and reused in the future.
The Zerglings were momentarily stunned when they saw the ghouls emerge.
To the best of their knowledge, they had never seen such a strange creature.
But ghouls don't think about such things; they pounce directly on the larvae around them!
*Pfft!*
The ghoul's attack was simple and brutal; it raised its double-headed fork and stabbed at the larvae.
The double-headed fork easily pierced through the larvae's defenses, taking down a larva in just a few strikes.
Even if a larva steals the ghoul's two-pronged fork, the ghoul can use its left arm to shoot a hot stone to shatter it!
"Wow, that's pretty impressive!" Liz, who was watching from the side, didn't hold back his comments.
Bang--!
The sudden, muffled thud was exceptionally crisp and loud.
Then, Liz saw a figure draw a perfect arc in mid-air.
Slurp
The figure landed and slid along the ground, stopping in front of Liz's feet amidst sparks and lightning.
"Are you putting on an acrobatic show here?" Liz said irritably when he saw that the person who came was Lin Xiao.
"Brother, I can't beat him." Lin Xiao looked up, his voice extremely aggrieved, as if he was about to shed tears.
"."
To be honest, Liz had never seen such an embarrassingly arrogant pro player.
If even a pro player can be like this, how come this crappy game hasn't shut down yet?
Actually, it's not that Lin Xiao couldn't win. The Zerg have the ability to
clock-up, which completely ignores Lin Xiao's collective combat tactics. It's normal that he couldn't win.
"Eight minutes left, hang in there."
As he spoke, Liz grabbed Lin Xiao and pushed him back.
Lin Xiao was stunned when he was pushed back. Shouldn't Liz have helped him in the normal plot situation?
Just as Liz pushed Lin Xiao back, the Burial Zerg suddenly launched an attack!
"Put on!"
Even while interacting with Lin Xiao, Liz did not let his guard down.
The moment the burying Zerg charged, he activated the Zerg device to complete his costume.
All the armor reassembled onto his body, and he met the charge of the Burial Zerg.
whoom!!!
The two collided, producing a sound that echoed throughout the entire factory.
Liz, in his masked form, didn't budge an inch when faced with the charge head-on.
"How about it, is your brother tough enough?" As soon as he finished speaking, Liz raised his right fist and struck.
Bang!
A sudden, powerful punch landed directly on the face of the Burial Bug Zerg.
Just as the burial Zerg took a step back, Liz grabbed its arm, stopping its retreat.
But what followed was the rotation of the Vulcan cannons on his shoulders!
Bang bang—!
The Vulcan cannon, fired almost face-to-face, slammed directly into the face of the Burial Zerg.
Two plasma fireballs blasted the entire Burial Zerg away.
The burial Zerg, which had been thrown backward, landed on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time. Its upper body was charred black.
Liz didn't give the Burial Bug Zerg a chance either. He spun his Vulcan cannons on his shoulders and immediately fired two more plasma fireballs.
Boom! ...
The plasma fireball struck the Burial Zerg, instantly triggering an explosion.
The yellow flames of the explosion filled the area, even affecting the surrounding larvae and taking away a few unfortunate ones in the process.
Now, Liz only had two adult Zerg left.
"It's your fault for irritating me." Liz's gaze fell on the fly-like Zerg in mid-air.
After all, the sound of flies buzzing around is something that any normal person would find annoying, right?
Da da da!!
This time, Liz did not use plasma fireballs, but instead used another type of ion beam bullet.
The ion beam projectiles have an extremely high firing rate, capable of firing five thousand rounds per minute, making them ideal for dealing with the fly Zerg.
A series of beams of ion light were launched to the fly Zerg in mid-air.
The fly wasn't stupid either; it kept swaying in mid-air when Liz's gaze fell on it.
However, the space above the factory was not large, and under the barrage of light bullets, the fly Zerg is quickly hit in the wings.
The fly that was hit fell straight down.
Liz gave a thumbs-up to the fly-like Zerg.
As the saying goes:if someone gives you a thumbs up, they're either praising you or aiming at you!
Clearly, what Liz is doing now is targeting this annoying issue.
Bang bang!!!
Two plasma fireballs were delivered directly to the fly Zerg.
It turned into a fireball during its fall and crashed into the swarm of larvae below.
Boom!!
An explosion rang out, and a corner of the larval swarm was instantly engulfed in flames.
"The last one!" Liz turned his head to search for the last target.
However, after looking around, no trace of the wolf spider Zerg could be found.
That guy ran away?
As soon as the idea came out, Liz immediately rejected it.
The Zerg are currently in a state of riot and there is absolutely no way they can escape.
Whoosh!
A strange whooshing sound came from behind, and it was moving at an extremely fast speed.
Before Liz could react, he was bound and entangled by coils of spider silk.
Then,he saw the wolf spider Zerg fall down from the ceiling along the spider silk.
"Human, it's time for you to pay the price for slaughtering so many of my kind!"
A male phantom appeared beside the tarantula Zerg, delivering a verdict to Liz.
"Have you ever heard the saying?" Liz, who was tied up, said calmly.
"What is it?" The spider-like Zerg stretched out its tentacles, waiting for Liz to continue.
"They say don't yap too much"
The moment Liz finished speaking, he vanished instantly, leaving behind a trail of spider silk slowly falling to the ground.
"Coo coo!!!"
The wolf spider-like Zerg looked around but couldn't find Liz. It could only roar in frustration towards the sky.
*Pop*
Bound by the spider silk, Liz felt as if the scene before him was being pulled and spun around.
Then, a feeling of lightness washed over me, and even my transformation ended.
"It's finally over."
Liz sat down on the ground and relaxed completely.
To be honest, if given a little more time, he was even confident he could kill the last of the tarantula Zerg.
However, it would be good to stop here; it would be easier to relax.
While relaxing, he also took in his surroundings.
Liz arrived at what seemed to be a strange room, with very little light.
Naturally, no one was seen, not even Lin Xiao, that 'fake pro gamer'.
"throne.?"
Just then, Liz noticed a throne directly in front of him.
The throne is not large, nor does it look luxurious. It is a simple chair with a backrest, but the backrest is somewhat peculiar, resembling a transparent peacock spreading out.
Buzz—!
With a soft hum, virtual screens appeared on the left and right sides of the throne.
A line of text then appeared on the virtual screen.
[Do you have any regrets?]
On the huge virtual screen, there was only this one line of text, which seemed particularly empty.
"What a pity."
"Yes, why don't you give me back the magic stone first? That item is quite useful."
Upon seeing these words, a strange light flashed in Liz's eyes.
As soon as he finished speaking, the text on the virtual screen flickered as if it had crashed.
[Then, become the sole hero of this game, and you will have any wish granted, even your regrets.]
The words appeared, then gradually disappeared.
Text appeared simultaneously on two virtual screens.
[Become a hero]
[Leave the game]
Clearly, the two virtual screens present choices.
"Any wish." After a brief pause, Liz extended his hand.
And Tap the virtual screen where you become a hero,the virtual screen on the other side also detached from the throne and automatically disappear.
Immediately afterwards, the view of the entire room was stretched again, and in the blink of an eye, it became a room.
The room wasn't spacious, but it was fully furnished with a sofa, table, TV, and other amenities, and the decor was quite elegant, definitely up to five-star standards.
"Brother, you're still alive!"
The sudden voice drew Liz's attention.
The speaker was Lin Xiao, who was even swirling a glass of red wine in his hand.
"If you can't speak, you don't have to," Liz said, rolling his eyes.
What do you mean he's still alive? With his killing speed, how could he possibly die?
At that moment, two virtual screens popped up in front of the two of them.
[The Rider's World - Zerg Factory has been temporarily cleared. Due to the increased difficulty, it will be released as an E-rank Rider's World in the future.]
[Fourteen players participated in this Rider's World event, and two have been confirmed as survivors. The rating and reward distribution process has begun.]
Out of the corner of Liz's eye, he could no longer see Lin Xiao's virtual screen.
Presumably, these are personal ratings and rewards, which are not shown to others.
Immediately, Liz also focused on his virtual screen.
[Zerg Factory Completion Rating - A+]
"I should have taken care of that tarantula sooner." Seeing his rating, Liz couldn't help but click his tongue in regret.
This rating is quite good, and I can't help but look forward to the rewards to come.
When Liz saw the reward pop up, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
[Amazons Potion: After injection, you will be completely transformed into an Amazon, but you will have an instinct to crave protein, especially human flesh. The included special potion can suppress this, but it will no longer have any effect once your cells are fully awakened.]
"???"
Upon seeing the reward, Liz was filled with questions.
Is this thing setting him up to become an Amazon?
No, can this really be considered a reward?!
With his fists clenched tightly, Liz continued reading.
But his vision shifted to other information.
[Amazons Drug: Type II Amazons Drug. After injection, one transforms into an Amazon, with reduced ability to sense other Amazons and stronger control over human will. It is a prerequisite for using the Amazons Driver.]
The information he see is naturally derived from his Authority.
After reading the information about the potion, Liz immediately understood why it was offered as a reward.
Once this potion is used, with just one Amazons driver, he can become the second empty-nest old man!
However, it must be said that the Amazons' riders are also quite powerful in combat, and their attacks are essentially real damage.
There's just the prerequisite is becoming an Amazon, which makes Liz feel a little uncomfortable.
Liz continued reading and found that in addition to the potion, there was also a item reward.
[Teleport Magician's Ring: Allows manipulation of space and instantaneous teleportation; can only be used three times without magic power.]
"This is really good stuff!"
Liz was absolutely thrilled with this reward.
If you encounter a Zerg Factory situation again, you can use this Wizard's Ring to avoid it.
The only downside is that it can only be used three times because it lacks magic power.
[Teleport Magician's Ring: Allows instantaneous teleportation to a known location, carrying other people or objects. Maximum of three people and items limited to a maximum volume of two meters. It will break after three uses without magic power.]
More comprehensive information, accessible through his authority, appeared before his eyes.
"Before it was damaged, I wondered if there was any chance of obtaining magic."
Liz narrowed his eyes slightly. He remembered that magic could only be obtained by the Phantom in Wizards after they had failed in despair.
That's relatively simple. As long as he has the opportunity to enter the Rider's World of the Kamen Rider wizard, he can get his hands on the magic power.
After viewing the rewards, both rewards were automatically sent to Liz's account.
Liz glanced at Lin Xiao out of the corner of his eye. Lin Xiao didn't seem to have received the reward yet, but his face looked very dark as he looked at the virtual screen.
Seeing Lin Xiao's dark expression, Liz's mood immediately improved.
After all, it was that bastard Lin Xiao who made things quite difficult for him!
"Hey, Lin Xiao, tell me about the situation here." Seeing that Lin Xiao hadn't finished yet, Liz casually sat down on the sofa and said.
"Wait a minute." Lin Xiao was stunned when he heard the question, and the virtual screen disappeared immediately.
But in Liz's eyes, he immediately saw the props that Lin Xiao had obtained.
[Akiko's Slippers: A Noble Phantasm for Shotaro and Philip, forcibly calming them down. Can be used once.]
Liz's lips curled up wildly, and he tried very hard to hold back his laughter.
To be honest, Lin Xiao's face was incredibly dark.
However, Liz did obtain some information.
Clearly, Lin Xiao's rating wasn't high enough, otherwise he wouldn't have received such a ridiculous prop.
This also serves as a reminder to him: don't force yourself into the beginner Rider's World, or you'll never know what hilarious items you'll get!
"The place we are in now is called the buffer zone."
"It's an area specially created by the Rider Game , a place for players like us and monsters to live in."
With a dark expression, Lin Xiao sat opposite to Liz and slowly began to speak.
