736 The Strange Behavior of Fierce Beast Horde
The members of the expert team had a simple rest. Their injuries were almost healed. The physical strength and energy they had just consumed had also recovered by more than half. Their combat strengths had returned to their peak state.
Thinking about the battle just now, the team members were a little excited and happy.
“I didn’t expect the battle to go so smoothly. It ended so quickly, and we weren’t even injured.”
“That’s normal. The number and strength of those fierce beasts just now were inferior to us. Naturally, we could easily deal with them.”
“I’ve gained quite a lot. I’ve gained quite a lot of combat experience. If I do it a few more times, I might be able to level up.”
“That’s right. It’s still faster to increase one’s level through combat. If it’s cultivation, even with cultivation resources and wooden houses, it still can’t compare to combat.”
“The main thing about cultivation is safety. Fighting can help you improve faster, but there are also certain risks. However, the battle just now wasn’t that dangerous.”
“Yes, dealing with a group of fierce beasts weaker than us in strength and number is the most beneficial for us. Not only is there no danger, but it can also give us a lot of combat experience and a good harvest.”
…
Members of the expert team had experienced their first victory since they entered the desert to explore. Without a doubt, they had tasted the sweetness and were extremely happy.
At this moment, Liu Yan was frowning slightly. He felt that something was not right.
The combat energy of the fierce beasts just now was about the same. All of them had 6-star and 7-star combat energy. However, they were made up of different species, which was a mess.
Liu Yan had some doubts about this.
According to the information he had previously obtained, most of the beasts on the sixth floor of the Tower lived in groups and rarely lived alone.
After all, the sixth floor of the Tower was dangerous. It was especially so for the fierce beasts that live alone.
Thus, the fierce beasts they encountered were basically in groups.
Whether it was the Whirlwind Turtle that Team Origin encountered when they first entered the sixth floor of the Tower or the whirlwind turtle near the Origin Territory.
It was the same for the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers that Liu Yan encountered when he led the sharp knife squad into the Hallucinatory Forest to explore.
This type of fierce beast and monster plant both moved in groups.
Especially the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. It was simply a sea of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers moving together, and the scene was exaggerated.
But now, the fierce beasts they had encountered in the desert’s periphery were moving in groups. It was a little strange that all kinds of fierce beasts were moving together.
On the other hand, Liu Yan was also confused by what Xu Han and the others had noticed.
Usually, the other fierce beasts in the surrounding area should have been able to sense the commotion and the smell of blood.
However, after the fierce beasts noticed the commotion of the battle, none of them came close. It was strange.
Liu Yan knew that some fierce beasts did not like to fight. If there was a battle nearby, not only would they not come close, but they would even stay far away.
However, some fierce beasts loved to battle and would come close.
It couldn’t be such a coincidence that all the surrounding fierce beasts didn’t like to fight, so they didn’t approach, right?
Liu Yan felt that there was something wrong with these two points.
However, he couldn’t figure out the exact reason in a short period. He could only continue moving forward and observe the situation when he encountered other groups of fierce beasts.
Very quickly, the members of the expert team were all well-rested.
Xu Han asked for permission from Liu Yan. After getting Liu Yan’s permission, he commanded the expert team to move forward and continue to explore the desert’s periphery.
Liu Yan found Derek Dole, Sun Wen, and Luo Wei. He told them about the two doubts he had in his heart.
When they heard this, they had the same feeling.
“I also feel that something is wrong,” said Derek Dole. “The situation here doesn’t seem right.”
“I’m guessing that the situation in this desert is a little special, so we’d better be careful,” Sun Wen said.
Liu Yan wasn’t surprised that the two didn’t understand the situation either. The situation here was indeed a little off.
Fortunately, they were still in the outer area of the desert. The strength of the surrounding beasts was relatively limited. The expert team was relatively safe. That was why Liu Yan asked Xu Han to command the expert team to continue moving forward. Otherwise, Liu Yan would not have advanced so rashly.
Liu Yan then looked at Luo Wei and said, “Luo Wei, use your invisibility and speed to scout the surroundings. Your main task is scouting, don’t fight, and see what the situation is like with the other fierce beast groups. Pay special attention to whether the fierce beasts in these groups are the same species. Remember, explore the outskirts of the desert, don’t go too deep, and try not to fight.”
“Alright, I understand.” Luo Wei replied, and then his figure gradually disappeared. He had already turned invisible.
Liu Yan, on the other hand, followed the expert team and continued to move forward.
Liu Yan had two perception skills.
One was the S-grade skill, Omniscient Insight. The ability of Omniscient Insight was undoubtedly strong, but the range was still a little small. Its perception range was weakened by the wind elemental energy within the Wind Barrier. It only had about a hundred meters.
However, Liu Yan could still sense the surrounding clearly within this range. Even if it was just an insect in the soil, he could sense it. The only drawback was that the range was a little small.
At this moment, Liu Yan was relying on his S-grade perception skill, Omniscient Insight. Naturally, he was unable to determine the situation of the surrounding fierce beasts. The location of the fierce beasts had already exceeded this range.
With his SS-grade Extraordinary Five Senses, Liu Yan’s range of perception was wide, and he could sense the presence of several other fierce beast groups in the surroundings.
After all, the Extraordinary Five Senses had not been truly activated. Although the range of his perception was large, the degree of detail was relatively ordinary.
Liu Yan could only use Extraordinary Five Senses to sense the presence of other groups of fierce beasts around him. He could roughly sense their strength. Most of them were 6-star or 7-star. Occasionally, there was a group of relatively strong fierce beasts that reached 8-star combat strength. However, they were not a threat to Liu Yan.
Even if Luo Wei couldn’t defeat them, he could still escape.
Liu Yan could only sense the presence of these fierce beasts, but he could not figure out their exact species. He could only send Luo Wei to investigate.
Even though Luo Wei was no match for some of the beasts, he could easily escape with his invisibility and terrifying speed.
After Luo Wei left, Liu Yan led his expert team to make preparations.
Although they were currently only at the periphery of the desert, and the combat power of the beasts they had just encountered was relatively average, there was no danger.
After all, this was within the Wind Barrier, so it was better to be careful.
Not long after, Luo Wei returned from his investigation with a strange expression.
