Chapter 2050: Capture!
The Phantom Clan expert was about to deliver a fatal blow to the scrawny elder, but as soon as he detected someone ambushing, he snorted coldly and immediately turned towards the direction of the attack, launching a strike.
An alarming grey energy surge emanated from his horrifying grey long arm, striking directly at the assailant.
However, this terrifying strike was silently annihilated the moment it touched the purple lightning.
Upon witnessing this, the Phantom Clan expert’s complexion changed drastically.
"Impossible... Power of Destruction Thunder..."
Before he could finish his words of terror, he saw the purple thunder quietly smashing towards him.
In an instant, the Phantom Clan expert was hit by the Power Of Thunder.
His form suddenly halted, and he was completely stunned.
The next moment, his body surface abruptly cracked.
Swarms of Power of Destruction rampaged out from within him.
The Phantom Clan expert let out a piercing scream and then flew backward directly.
Despite the length of narration, all this happened in an instant.
After one strike injured this Phantom Clan expert severely, another Phantom Clan expert’s face changed dramatically, and immediately transformed into a shadowy figure, swiftly retreating.
This person abandoned his companion and fled directly.
Seeing this scenario, Zhou Yu snorted coldly.
"Leave it to me!"
He raised his hand and pointed, sending another arc of purple electricity straight towards the Phantom Clan expert.
Although the Phantom Clan expert was highly swift, he wasn’t faster than real lightning.
In just a few breaths, the thunderous energy launched by Zhou Yu caught up with him.
Realizing he couldn’t escape, the Phantom Clan expert let out a furious roar.
The next moment, a bizarre Rune unexpectedly appeared behind him.
As soon as the Rune emerged, it burst into grey light.
Subsequently, the Rune split open, and an Avatar strikingly similar to his form emerged behind him.
That Avatar then directly met Zhou Yu’s strike.
Boom!
Accompanied by a fierce blast, the Avatar was shattered by Zhou Yu’s single blow.
However, the Phantom Clan expert had vanished without a trace.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu frowned slightly.
"What a pity."
"I never expected the Phantom Clan to have such a trick."
"If I had known earlier, I definitely wouldn’t have let him escape."
At this moment, ten figures flew towards Zhou Yu from behind.
These were the other members of Team 189.
After arriving here, they first spotted the Phantom Clan expert lying on the ground, then immediately surrounded him. Ma Kun even took out a Magic Treasure specifically targeting the Phantom Clan, swiftly controlling the Phantom Clan expert, completely stripping him of his ability to resist.
After accomplishing this, the scrawny elder finally came to his senses.
He looked at Zhou Yu in immense shock.
"Friend, are you... are you Captain Zhou of Team 189?"
Zhou Yu turned his head to look at the scrawny elder and nodded slightly.
"Indeed, it is me."
The scrawny elder was utterly shocked at this moment.
He had heard about the famous Team 189 for a long time, but he had never interacted with them before, so he didn’t believe the rampant stories about Team 189’s formidable prowess.
But just now, he witnessed with his own eyes that the Phantom Clan expert, who nearly annihilated his whole team, was effortlessly dealt with by Zhou Yu in mere seconds.
Moreover, another Phantom Clan expert was so frightened that he risked harming his Origin by using a secret technique to flee desperately.
If he hadn’t seen this with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed it even if beaten to death.
At this moment, the scrawny elder looked at Zhou Yu with a face full of awe.
"Captain Zhou, I am Captain Wan Ming of Team 176."
"Thank you... Thank you, Captain Zhou, for your lifesaving grace."
"If Captain Zhou hadn’t arrived in time, Team 176 would probably cease to exist..."
Wan Ming spoke with eyes turning red.
And the five surviving members of Team 176 also respectfully thanked Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu waved his hand and said:
"We all belong to the City Defense Team. Helping each other should come naturally, no need for formality."
"Additionally..."
Zhou Yu glanced at their miserable state and sighed:
"Please accept my condolences."
Wan Ming closed his eyes, his face full of agony, and after a long while, he opened his eyes again to express gratitude once more.
At this moment, Ma Kun by the side spoke up:
"Captain Wan, we’ll take this Phantom Clan person away, right?"
Though Ma Kun sounded like he was asking, his words showed no intent of negotiation.
After all, capturing a Phantom Clan expert alive was definitely a major achievement.
Wan Ming obviously understood.
He promptly said:
"Naturally."
"Thanks to you all."
Ma Kun and the others immediately grabbed the Phantom Clan expert and left with him in custody.
The surviving team members from Team 176 watched the proud departure of Team 189, eyes full of envy.
But some things are just unattainable by mere longing.
As they watched Team 189 vanish into the mountain range, Wan Ming finally redirected his gaze, looking at the remaining team members, he sighed and said:
"Let’s return to the city..."
...
At this moment, after Zhou Yu led the team away.
Ma Kun could no longer contain his excitement and approached Zhou Yu.
"Captain, you’re incredible!"
"Since the Phantom Clan experts appeared around the Black Demon Mountain Range, they’ve caused massive losses to our City Defense Team; until now, no one has captured a Phantom Clan member."
"But now it’s different, we’ve regained our name this time."
Others also gathered around, unable to contain their excitement.
"Indeed, indeed!"
"Thanks to the Captain."
"..."
At this moment, everyone looked at Zhou Yu with genuine reverence.
In the past ten years, they’ve seen too many teams devastated, some even annihilated.
Only their Team 189 has sustained no losses and frequently achieved great accomplishments.
This is all due to Zhou Yu’s presence.
And today, Zhou Yu swiftly dealt with a Phantom Clan expert with ease, intensifying everyone’s admiration even more.
Zhou Yu smiled slightly and then shook his head, saying:
"Everyone, don’t be too optimistic."
"You’re all aware of the recent situation in the Black Demon Mountain Range."
"The Phantom Clan, Withered Wood Water Clan, along with three other Alien Races have become increasingly active, deploying stronger experts."
"Just from today’s Phantom Clan member alone, his strength was equivalent to a Human Race Divinity Transformation Realm Late Stage, perhaps even stronger in some aspects."
"If I didn’t happen to have methods to restrain them, and if they hadn’t been overly careless, this battle would not have ended so easily."
Upon hearing this, Ma Kun’s excitement gradually faded.
He said with a solemn expression:
"Indeed."
"I have an elder in the City Defense Team high-level; I’ve heard him say that the surrounding Five Clans have formed an alliance, and might take action against Fengyuan City!"
"If this is truly the case, the next major battle could occur within a century."
Upon hearing Ma Kun’s words, everyone was suddenly plunged into silence.
Even Zhou Yu’s eyes flashed with a profound look.
Over the years, he’s been working diligently to exchange accomplishments for Purification Pills, and after ten years, he’s nearly exchanged enough.
If a war really breaks out, perhaps it’s time for him to start considering leaving early.
"Return to the city!"
Zhou Yu uttered a command to everyone and then led the way towards Fengyuan City...
