I’m A Wasteland Giant

Chapter 268: Chapter 267: Five Elements Formation!

Translator: 549690339

Just as Du Gang was about to explain to everyone, suddenly someone rushed in from the door.

“I am here to deliver an invitation on behalf of Mr. Zhu Qing. In one hour, the first layer of the abyss highlands will hold a discussion on tactics…”

An arrogantly poised man spoke down to everyone, before turning and leaving without waiting for a response from Du Gang and the others.

“What the hell?!”

Witnessing the man’s abrupt departure, Long Aotian was left perplexed, “Is there anyone more arrogant than me?”

“Wait, I am not like him. Isn’t his level of arrogance too low?!”

Long Aotian is proud because he has the capital to back it up, while the man who just entered and looked down on them through his nostrils was just too much.

“From what I can tell, that Zhu Qing is quite arrogant!”

If the master is not arrogant, those under him will not dare to be arrogant either. Considering this fact, it is obvious that Zhu Qing is not an easy individual.

Big Dragon asked in his straightforward way: “Captain, should we go then?”

He was accustomed to listening to Du Gang’s advice.

Hearing him speak, everyone else also looked at Du Gang; they were all new here, unfamiliar with the situation in the abyss.

Du Gang gave a faint smile and said, “Why wouldn’t we go? Our goals are all the same. We all want to get rid of the Demon Clan to gain more benefits…”

Turning his head towards Yao Zijie, he asked, “What about the others?”

Yao Zijie was startled for a moment, quickly understanding that he was referring to their other classmates, and replied, “The others have already formed groups with those they get along with…”

“Entered into the abyss yet?”

“Not yet, as far as I know, they are all still getting acquainted with the situation in the communication zone!”

Du Gang gave a nod, scanned over everyone and ordered, “You guys go and bring all our other classmates here…”

“Under what pretext?”

“Will they come back?”

Those present were all somewhat confused, unsure of his intentions.

Du Gang chuckled and said, “They will come, just tell them that my divine power limit is now 6000 Naer!”

“What?!”

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room was shocked. Long Aotian and Little Hawk King were stunned, gazing at him with wide eyes.

Not just them, even the pretentious Kong Xu and the straight-faced Yao Zijie were left dumbfounded.

“6000 Naer?!”

Du Gang nodded, “That’s right. My divine power limit has been cultivated to the extreme. At the very least, I’ve captured all the essences from the first layer of the abyss…”

“Really?!”

At this moment, Long Aotian was somewhat in disbelief. He took two steps forward, intending to probe.

“He he!”

Du Gang chuckled and showed off his divine power.

“Boom!”

An intense wave of power surged out.

“Oh my God!”

Feeling this intense fluctuation, everyone else finally believed. Seeing is believing, Du Gang has indeed reached 6000 Naer of divine power!

“How did you do it?!”

Du Gang smirked and said, “Alright, enough chatter, go gather everyone. I promise you your divine power limit will increase more quickly when they arrive…”

“OK, I’ll leave right now!”

Yao Zijie frowned and asked, “Are we calling the local students too?”

Du Gang nodded and smiled, “Call them too. It’s just a little grudge within the school, nothing serious. Now is the time to unite and face the outside world!”

Everyone was eager to know Du Gang’s secret, but now they had to follow his instructions and go to gather everyone else.

Soon, the house was empty.

In less than ten minutes, the room was filled with people again, this time with all of their classmates as well.

Even the local students led by Long Aoshi had arrived.

“Du Gang, have you really reached 6000 Naer of divine power?!”

Long Aoshi immediately started to inquire as soon as he entered the door.

All the students in the room were staring at Du Gang, their eyes fixed on him.

They had all been admitted into the class of geniuses, and despite being inferior to Du Gang and the others they were all top-level geniuses with extraordinary power and deep-rooted backgrounds. They all had at least received the legacy of their families and currently possessed divine powers varying from one hundred to Five hundred Naer.

Yet, compared to Du Gang’s claimed 6000 Naer of divine power, they were far behind!

Du Gang also didn’t hold back, casting out his divine power of 6000 directly.

This incited an uproar amongst those present.

“He’s only been gone a little over a year… And already at 6000 Naer of divine power…”

“How did he manage to achieve this?!”

“If I could also reach that level in a little over a year…”

Quite a few were aspiring for this level of achievement, eager for Du Gang to reveal his method.

“Du Gang, how did you actually do it?”

Long Aoshi, true to form, was eager and asked without delay.

Du Gang laughed and said, “I’ll tell you later. For now, let’s go to the abyss. Zhu Qing from the third layer of the abyss is back and wants to hold a meeting with us…”

“Are you actually planning to go?!”

Long Aoshi was taken aback and frowned, “What’s the point? That guy is obviously arrogant!”

He himself was an arrogant individual. Faced with another arrogant person, was he expected to submit?!

Du Gang chuckled and said, “We all have the same goal, which is to drive away the Demon Clan and monopolize Big Dragon. Let’s just see what he has in mind!”

He had been invited once after all, despite the messenger’s poor attitude. He was also curious to meet the so-called man who had returned from the third layer of the abyss

As Du Gang led them out, the rest of them naturally followed.

They had no other intentions. On one hand, Du Gang was their former class leader. On the other hand, he possessed the secret to achieving 6000 Naer of divine power within one year, a secret they all wanted to know.

And so, over one hundred people followed Du Gang towards the abyss.

“Over a hundred Controllers?”

The passersby, seeing this group, all expressed shock.

“How come I have never seen these people before!”

“Me neither… Wait a minute, look at that leader!”

Soon someone recognized Du Gang, gasping out, “It’s Du Gang!”

“Oh my god, it’s Du Gang!”

Hearing the gasps and collective intake of breath around them, the hundred or so students were even more confused.

Does Du Gang have a big reputation in the abyss?

They hadn’t been here for long, so they were very surprised.

“Was it him who single-handedly killed over three hundred Controllers?”

“Wait, you think it’s possible that this group did it together and Du Gang was just responsible for the exchange?”

Passersby started speculating about the group of over one hundred Controllers.

Du Gang killed over three hundred Controllers?!

Long Aoshi and the others were shocked to hear this news.

Everyone looked at Du Gang with astonishment, finding it hard to believe.

They knew very well that among the people here, only Du Gang had ventured deep into the abyss, while the others had just arrived.

This meant that what the bystanders assumed to be a concerted effort was indeed done by Du Gang alone!

One man killing three hundred Controllers!

What does that level of strength imply?!

Long Aoshi, who originally wanted to challenge Du Gang due to his increased strength, quickly shrank back in fear.

Thank goodness he hadn’t acted on impulse, or else he’d be beaten to death by now, right?!

He silently thanked his lucky stars, realizing that he had indeed grown much less impulsive over the past year…

As for the discussions among the bystanders, Du Gang paid them no mind, leading the way towards the abyss.

Over a hundred others followed suit.

Along the way, Da Zhuang and Qiao Bing felt their facial expressions freeze.

They were the ones consistently tailing Du Gang. At this moment, they could only maintain their indifferent expressions.

This was because, among a group of Controllers, their strength was negligible.

The problem was that these Controllers were all following Du Gang’s instructions and advancing together.

Da Zhuang and Qiao Bing, unable to help themselves, felt relieved that they had followed Du Gang in the first place.

Thus, a group of people rushed towards the high ground of the first layer of the abyss an hour prior to their arrival.

At this moment, basically all of those who had arrived were Controllers.

Those with power levels below that of a Controller essentially had no right to take part in this conference.

This was organized by Zhu Qing and aimed at those powerful individuals above the Controller level.

There were a considerable number of attendees, roughly over six hundred, and with the addition of Du Gang and others, the total number was over seven hundred.

“Who are these people?”

There were easily over a hundred in Du Gang’s group and they all exuded the aura of Controllers, which puzzled others.

None of them had seen these people before.

At this point, those from the Penglai Island forces explained: “These people are the most outstanding talents of the Ancient City who just left…”

I see!

All of a sudden, everyone looked very solemn.

And they paid more attention to Du Gang, the leading figure.

Meanwhile, Du Gang was focusing his gaze on a man in the very center of the crowd.

“Du Gang…”

Zhu Qing muttered, but did not waste any time: “Almost everyone is here. Let’s start today’s conference!”

He was pragmatic and didn’t intimidate them as they had anticipated.

He started talking about strategic issues right away.

“Our objective is unified, that is to drive out the Demon Clan and recapture the Big Dragon Pit…”

“The military has allocated a quota of merits to us Controllers. Recapturing the Big Dragon Pit will reward us bountifully. Furthermore, the longer we occupy the Big Dragon Pit, the more we get rewarded…”

At this point, a voice of dissent rang out.

“We all know this. Just get to the point if you have a solution, don’t waste our time!”

With this discordant voice echoing, everyone’s attention was drawn towards it.

It was Qin Jingshuo!

He was among those who had returned from the second layer of the abyss. Previously, he led for a month but couldn’t capture the Big Dragon Pit, so naturally, he wasn’t happy with the new leadership.

After all, if Zhu Qing successfully led the attack shortly after his arrival, wouldn’t that reflect poorly on him?

Despite the gap between the two, he was still a bit disgruntled.

Zhu Qing just smiled, “Of course, there’s a solution!”

“I have a set of flag formations, known as the Five Elements Reversal Formation!”

“Within this formation, our strength will slightly increase. In addition, the entire formation will cause significant damage to the demon clan…”

“However, this formation has five eyes that need people to guard…”

“This means that we need to split our forces into five ways, each guarding one formation eye…”

“As long as we occupy three out of five formation eyes before the refresh of the Big Dragon, the demon clan will be unable to seize the Big Dragon…”

Zhu Qing smiled, “There are about seven hundred of us here. Let’s divide it into groups of a hundred and fifty people…”

“I will take charge of guarding the first formation eye. Those who wish to join me, please come over…”

Sure enough, quite a number of people in the room began to make their moves, and it didn’t take long for Zhu Qing to have a full team.

The orderly appearance of these people indicated that they all knew about these matters beforehand thanks to Zhu Qing.

“My first formation eye is responsible for dealing with the strongest enemy…”

“The second will deal with the next strongest… the fifth will face the least amount of pressure…”

Qin Jingshuo questioned, “Are you implying that the merits awarded differ between the formation eyes, depending on the victory?”

“Exactly!”

Zhu Qing smiled and nodded, “The formation I devised has already been approved by the military. Our merits will be based on the contribution we make and whether we successfully defend the formation eyes…”

After listening, Qin Jingshuo didn’t hesitate, but said straight away, “In that case, I’ll guard the second formation eye!”

No sooner had he said this than the people who came with him from the second abyss level stood beside him.

Coincidentally, the number of people that came from the second layer of the abyss was also roughly around 150.

“Now onto the third formation eye. Anyone interested here?”

After asking this question, Yao Anfu and others in the venue were eager to try. They were originally the strongest individuals in the first layer of the abyss.

But at this moment, Du Gang calmly proposed, “The third formation eye, let’s take care of it!”

“Hmm?”

As soon as this statement was made, everyone looked at him.

Yao Anfu was the first to frown.

Zhu Qing and Qin Jingshuo’s teams had been formed; there was no need to compete for them. Originally, the third formation eye should have been his. But now, a dark horse had appeared out of nowhere.

“Du Gang…”

Yao Anfu had heard a little about Du Gang and knew about his previous feats.

He frowned and said, “Du Gang, you better think about this carefully. This affects our chance of victory. If your strength is lacking and you cause failure due to inability to guard your formation eye, you will have to assume the consequences!”

Du Gang just chuckled, “Don’t worry, the third formation eye is quite secure!”

Seeing him this confident, Yao Anfu did not insist on arguing and just said, “Then I’ll take the fourth formation eye!”

He wanted to watch first. During the first battle, if Du Gang and his people couldn’t hold on, it would not be too late for him to take the third formation eye

Moreover, he was somewhat afraid because the Demon Clan clearly had more powerful individuals.

The number of Controllers was around a thousand.

On their side, for some unknown reason, it seemed they were short of over a hundred controllers. Otherwise, they should have at least eight hundred or even nine hundred controllers now!

At this point, Yao Zijie looked at Du Gang’s backside, deep in thought.

The so-called five eyes of the formation all required a leader.

Did Du Gang call the others because he wanted to become one of these leaders?

By saying so, he implied that he also had other news sources…

Of course, he didn’t know if there were additional benefits for him… But given Du Gang’s nature, he would not rise early if there were no rewards!
