Chapter 61 The Strangler Runs Wild

"And the second point," Ji Yun continued, "is partly correct and partly incorrect. This view should actually be understood like this: a boss from a supernatural invasion will definitely possess special skills, but that does not mean anything with special skills is necessarily a boss."

"Therefore, from this perspective, this invisible supernatural giant wolf could also be a non-boss supernatural creature with special skills, just like the giant supernatural creature I killed remotely with 'Lightning Shaking the Nine Heavens' earlier!"

"To sum up, whether this supernatural giant wolf is alive or dead remains to be seen."

Ji Yun's seemingly impressive and professional commentary, combined with the buff from winning yesterday's God War, actually managed to fool the onlookers in the bullet chat. Not a single person noticed that Ji Yun's words were absolute nonsense.

Meanwhile, in the Eastern Theater Command, atop the mountain by the sea.

"Is it dead?" General Lin's voice came through Ji Ling's earpiece.

Ji Ling stared intently at the sea where the supernatural giant wolf had crashed, shaking his head with a vigilant gaze, and whispered, "Not yet, it has turned invisible again."

Hearing Ji Ling's words, Ji Yun's face in the livestream showed an expression of disgust, and he said in a low voice, "Ji Ling is trying too hard to show off. If it turned invisible again, how on earth could he see it?"

True to form, Ji Yun's words successfully stirred up the chat.

[Hahaha! Exactly. If that supernatural giant wolf really turned invisible, could he possibly still see it?]

[Does he think he has the Heavenly Eyes? Hilarious!]

[Is he even fooling himself? Look, his gaze is actually moving!]

[Bullshit! Even deities specializing in pupil techniques, like clairvoyance, cannot locate the movements of that invisible supernatural creature. What makes a loser who doesn't even have a divine space and has to rely on Major General Ji Yun sacrificing his vital essence to remotely transmit divine power to him think he can see it?]

[Exactly! If he can see it, I'll immediately gouge out my eyeballs and use them as glass marbles!]

"Watch out!" Ji Ling shouted anxiously, then immediately unleashed a bolt of lightning from his palm and shouted into the radio, "Vanquishers, fire immediately at the spot where my lightning strikes! It's right there!"

General Lin looked in astonishment at the spot where Ji Ling's lightning had struck. It was very close to the thirty Vanquisher operators, right at the edge of the coastline.

The giant wolf had been knocked into the sea and vanished, yet Ji Ling claimed it was right there.

However, General Lin hesitated for less than half a second before immediately issuing the order!

Thirty death-ray beams shot out simultaneously. The mournful howling of the supernatural giant wolf echoed once more, and the previously invisible creature reappeared.

Having been struck once by Ji Ling's heavenly thunder and targeted twice by thirty death-ray beams, the supernatural giant wolf was clearly at the end of its rope, its health bar completely depleted.

It also realized that the one truly threatening it was the human standing atop the distant mountain peak.

Struggling with its last breath, the supernatural giant wolf leaped into the air once more, raising its front paws high and slamming them down toward Ji Ling's location.

"Fire! Cover Ji Ling!" General Lin had not expected this supernatural giant wolf to be so tenacious, capable of launching one final desperate struggle.

At General Lin's command, thirty death-ray beams shot toward the giant wolf again, and the soldiers hiding in the forest immediately unleashed a volley of gunfire!

They had thought such dense firepower coverage would surely bring the supernatural giant wolf down.

Yet, to everyone's utter shock, just as the firepower was about to descend upon the creature, it vanished into thin air right where it stood! Just when everyone assumed it had turned invisible again, Ji Ling's pupils contracted violently!

Because his Genesis Eyes clearly saw that the transparent silhouette of the giant wolf had already appeared right before his eyes!

It didn't just possess an invisibility skill!

It even possessed a skill akin to spatial teleportation!

It had vanished from the firepower zone just a second ago, and in the next second, it had appeared directly in front of him.

The true form of the supernatural giant wolf slowly materialized within the silhouette, and its massive paw came crashing down toward Ji Ling!

Without a moment's hesitation, Ji Ling activated "Lightning Shaking the Nine Heavens."

High in the sky, a terrifying purple-gold divine lightning split the heavens, directly cleaving the supernatural giant wolf in two!

The black mist dissipated on a large scale, revealing a wider safe zone.

However, the giant paw of the supernatural giant wolf still dealt Ji Ling a heavy blow!

A long laceration, stretching from his left shoulder to his right abdomen, appeared on Ji Ling's body.

Blood gushed out, and Ji Ling staggered and fell to the ground.

Everyone was immersed in the joy of Ji Ling defeating the supernatural giant wolf, cheering and celebrating.

At that moment, the probe pole on one of the Vanquisher drones twitched twice. Then, the blue light on its body suddenly turned an eerie, glaring red, and it rapidly swept toward Ji Ling's location!

General Xu's sharp, hawk-like eyes keenly detected the anomaly and shouted to the thirty Vanquisher drone operators behind him, "Hey, hey! What's wrong with that drone?! Why has its light turned red? It's flying toward Ji Ling!"

"Which of you is responsible for it?!"

A soldier immediately panicked, holding the controller and frantically pressing various buttons. "What's going on?! It... it's out of control!"

"Out of control?! What do you mean out of control?!" General Xu strode forward and snatched the controller away.

Having served for a period as political commissar at the base responsible for the research and production of the Vanquishers, he was quite familiar with the drones. Seeing the string of garbled code displayed on the controller, he was instantly shocked: "This Vanquisher has been hijacked by a Trojan horse!"

Without a second's delay, General Xu shouted into the radio, "Ji Ling! Ji Ling, get out of there!"

"A Vanquisher drone has been hijacked by a Trojan program and is out of control, flying straight toward you! It's very likely coming to assassinate you!"

Hearing the voice over the radio, Ji Ling immediately looked away from the crowd.

The moment he turned his head, he caught sight of a chilling death-ray beam heading straight for the center of his brow!

Without a moment's hesitation, Ji Ling unfurled his light-based lightning wings and beat them, barely dodging the lethal beam!

However, while Ji Ling could dodge, the mountain could not.

The death-ray beam possessed immense destructive power—virtually the sharpest blade in this world—and it cleanly sliced off a massive chunk of the mountain peak directly beneath Ji Ling!
