Chapter 202: Beast Tide (II)

Before the internal force fusion was completed, unless it was in a remote and uninhabited area in the wilderness, it could not be used on human opponents.

“I hope there’s more to gain from this.”

Thinking that there was still a large amount of special dew in the sea of flowers that could reduce the Skill Point requirement, Chen Yiming left the empty space he had created and walked straight into the forest filled with strange flowers and plants.

The two wolf corpses at the peak of the warrior realm were abandoned just like that.

In the future, if an adventurer had the ability to transport the wolf corpses out of the sea of flowers, they would also discover that the quality of the materials on its body had decreased greatly.

Although the wolf corpses weren’t completely worthless, they had become useless to Chen Yiming.

…

As Chen Yiming walked through the various areas in the sea of flowers, absorbing the special dew and reducing the Skill Point requirement for his Level-3 Undying Body talent,

“How unlucky. The sea of flowers has always been a paradise for adventurers. Why would there suddenly be a mutant beast riot? I’m really going to suffer a loss this time. My three carts of goods were thrown to the road in the wilderness just like that.”

At the city gate in the southwest of the sea of flowers, a middle-aged man cursed.

The dozen or so people following him were dejected. Although they had survived, they had lost three carts of goods. Their income for the next few months might decrease greatly.

Without money, one would not be able to buy the mutant beast meat needed for cultivation, causing a chain reaction that would delay one’s cultivation progress.

They were members of a small logistics transport company. The middle-aged man was their boss and captain of the transport team. The company had been traveling between the cities around the sea of flowers all year round. However, they did not expect to encounter a group of mutant beasts charging out of the sea of flowers on the way.

At that time, facing the mutant beasts that were charging over from afar, the middle-aged man had held back his tears and abandoned his car and goods to escape to Creek Mountain City.

Many people who were queuing up to enter the city, like the middle-aged man, were constantly complaining to the people around them and exchanging information they had heard.

“It’s said that it was a beast tide caused by the two bloodthirsty wolves deep in the sea of flowers. They were preparing to attack the surrounding cities. I have friends from the hunting team who were exploring the sea of flowers. They heard the roars that shook the entire sea of flowers,” someone who knew part of the inside story said.

“No way! Then what’s the use of escaping back to Creek Mountain City? We should run to a city further away.”

As the person who knew part of the truth revealed part of the situation, there was a commotion among the people queuing to enter the city.

However, without the soldiers guarding the city stepping in, the crowd quickly returned to normal. This was because the wilderness around the city was already filled with wandering mutant beasts.

Instead of passing through the encirclement of countless mutant beasts alone, it was better to enter the city first.

When all the humans in the city gathered together, even if the worst-case scenario of the city being destroyed occurred in the end, these martial arts practitioners who were living in the wilderness all year round would still be able to run faster than ordinary people, allowing ordinary people to take the fall for them and hold back the mutant beasts.

In Creek Mountain City, “Stop right there. We’ve already entered a state of war. Everyone, go back to your homes and hide as soon as possible.”

Teams of soldiers who were maintaining law and order in the city walked along the streets. From time to time, they would give orders to the pedestrians who were still lingering outside.

“What exactly is happening here?”

Some passers-by could not help but ask the soldiers about it. There were all kinds of rumors and versions, making it impossible for them to remain calm.

“Don’t stay any longer. Don’t ask anything you shouldn’t.”

The soldier did not explain the reason and scolded them loudly. The reason was difficult to explain properly. Only a strong command could maintain order in an anxious city.

Once Creek Mountain City received the order from Jiangnan City, the entire city quickly took action. Some of the troops began to patrol the city, while others climbed up the city walls.

In addition, a large number of troops had gathered. Batch after batch of military supplies were transported out of the warehouse, and military vehicles were quickly equipped.

Everything was to deal with the beast tide that could attack the human cities at any moment.

…

In the wilderness dozens of kilometers around the sea of flowers, “Everyone, pay attention. It’s time to go all out.”

In a forest, the captain of the hunting team, Hua Guangmin, cheered on his team members.

They did not escape in the direction of the city. Instead, they retreated further away. However, other than the captain who was a warrior, the team members were all at the disciple realm. In the end, they would inevitably encounter the mutant beasts that could run faster than them.

Dozens of meters away, more than 10 two-headed rabid dogs that were three to five meters long blocked their path under the lead of a three-headed rabid dog that was about 10 meters long.

These rabid dogs all looked very hungry. What the hunting team did not know was that the reason they were hunting them was to stock up on food.

This was because the mutant beasts in the sea of flowers were also as frightened as the humans.

This was especially true for some mutant beasts that were closer to the battlefield. They watched helplessly as the bloodthirsty wolves were beaten to the brink of death by the huge sword that had descended from the sky.

Facing such a powerful human, even if the mutant beasts sensed that peace had returned to the sea of flowers, they did not dare to return for the time being.

“Kill!”

Soon, the battle between the hunting team and the rabid dogs broke out.

Both sides would not give up until they achieved their goals. The hunting team did their best to break out of the encirclement, while the rabid dogs treated the humans as their food.

The captain, Hua Guangmin, slashed at the three-headed rabid dog with a large saber covered in internal force, stopping the warrior-level mutant beast.

The three-headed rabid dog was not afraid at all and pounced at Hua Guangmin.

Not only were the sharp claws the weapons of the three-headed rabid dog, but the three heads could also extend a certain distance and bite at the enemy from three directions with their fangs.

The other team members were in groups of three, standing back to back and fighting as they retreated.

However, although the hunting team had two more people compared to the number of two-headed rabid dogs, the two-headed rabid dogs still had the advantage of having twice the number of heads. It was still difficult for the team to keep up with their attacks.

Half an hour later, “Captain…”

Half of the hunting team had died before they managed to break out of the encirclement. Some of the team members were so choked up that they could not speak.

Their brothers, who had watched over each other day and night, had died in the wilderness and were eaten by multiple rabid dogs. Such a scene replayed in their minds repeatedly.

“We don’t have time to grieve. Let’s save our strength for our escape,” Hua Guangmin sighed and tried to persuade them.

Under the protection of the captain at the warrior realm, some of the team members in the wilderness had enjoyed too much peace and stability. As a result, they were not much stronger than the second and third generation disciples of the martial arts clans in the city.

The battle between humans and mutant beasts and the war with the otherworld was essentially a fight to the death. There was no logic to it.

Even though it was cruel, if one could survive a battle, one could often strengthen one’s will and quickly tap into one’s body’s potential, breaking through a hurdle that one could not overcome even if they cultivated for a long time.

Many human experts had fought their way out of a sea of blood and corpses, except for Chen Yiming, who had cheated using the system.

At the same time, not only was the hunting team led by Huang Guangmin attacked by mutant beasts, but the human factions’ camps in the wilderness were also not spared.

With a radius of about 100 kilometers around the sea of flowers, whenever the humans and mutant beasts met, the two sides started fighting for no reason, starting a battle between the humans and the mutant beasts.

Fortunately, everything did not go according to the worst-case scenario that the three big shots of Jiangnan City had imagined.

This was because the humans had lost the leader of a large sect, and the mutant beasts also did not have the two bloodthirsty wolves to lead them.

Under a strange combination of circumstances, soldiers faced soldiers, generals faced generals, and kings faced kings. Neither side had the combat strength of the peak of the warrior realm, so it was naturally unlikely for either side to be easily crushed in a battle.
