Chapter 498: The Current Situation of the Human Race
Watching Qing Ling blending with the dense forest, Zhang Mu felt sothing was off.
Zhang Mu was brought to this place by Qing Ling, a blank area between three powers, after going around in circles, her point being that it might be a place where exotic creatures could erge.
Actually, Zhang Mu didn’t believe it because it had long been concluded in later generations that exotic creatures were randomly placed.
However, to avoid raising Qing Ling’s suspicion, Zhang Mu had no choice but to follow along.
But in this remote place, the future Zhang Mu has never been before.
Being weak in power and only able to make minor contributions on the battlefield, he can only operate within the stronghold of the human race.
As for his business activities, they are naturally related to buying and selling.
Foreign creatures, it is not known where they ca from, but it is said that as long as it is an area outside the designated territory of the tested race, there is a chance of their appearance, so most people dare not wander around.
However, in the discovery that followed their influx into the Era Battlefield, it was concluded that their origin did not have a fixed location.
According to the analysis of the higher-ups, these foreign creatures were summoned to provide them with training.
Zhang Mu’s small trade was mainly conducted between the battlefield and the stronghold, using the convenience of the Era rchant Ring for transportation business. However, the scale at that ti was not large, partly because he did not dare to venture too far, and partly because the Era rchant Ring had limited capacity and could not accommodate too many goods.
Fortunately, where there is war, there is business. Coupled with his extensive connections, it was easy for him to find his position in the Era Battlefield.
“Qing Ling, is your information reliable? How could this be the base camp of the foreign creatures?”
Now Qing Ling has blended in with her surroundings so well that even Zhang Mu can’t find her location without her making a sound. It’s clear how formidable her hiding ability is.
Even though she couldn’t be found, Qing Ling’s voice started to sound softly.
“Actually, I’m not entirely sure, but I have seen strange creatures coming out of a cave before. However, that cave disappears after half an hour and is heavily guarded.
I’ve been watching for two days straight but haven’t found a chance to get in, so I need soone to help distract them.
Otherwise, I would have sneaked in alone.”
Though Zhang Mu couldn’t see Qing Ling clearly, he could sense her excitent in her words about discovering the source of the strange creatures, which would indeed be a great achievent if true.
Only half an hour duration and just two days of continuous surveillance?
Thinking about this, Zhang Mu, hidden in the shadows, looked serious for the first ti.
In that case, what Qing Ling said must be true!
Zhang Mu stared at the empty clearing in the forest, feeling excited that the prey would co out soon.
In the future, he was too afraid to leave the human settlent for self-protection, but now, even after being unconscious for so long, he had the strength to protect himself.
Everyone is curious about unknown things, including Zhang Mu, especially now that he could protect himself.
“Qing Ling, when do you think they will co out while you are on watch?” Zhang Mu whispered without turning his head.
Qing Ling replied confidently, “Probably in five minutes, that’s how it has been for the past few days, but who knows if it will change today.”
Hearing that there were still five minutes left, Zhang Mu relaxed and realized that dealing with the crisis facing humanity was more important than the issue of alien creatures, despite their importance.
Looking at the green surroundings, Zhang Mu suddenly got an idea. He decided to subtly extract useful information from Qing Ling.
“Qing Ling, can you tell more about what happened since I just entered the battlefield yesterday? I’m completely clueless right now.”
Qing Ling asked in surprise, “Didn’t your guide inform you?”
Zhang Mu thought about the Fire Kirin that had been discussing nas with him all the way, then shook his head.
Seeing this, Qing Ling chuckled lightly, “Looks like we’ve got a clueless young man here. Uncle Fire Kirin seed really happy to stay with our clan yesterday, probably forgot about this. Since we still have ti, I’ll tell you.”
“This Era Battlefield seems to have been set up by the person who made the sound when the end of the world began or when we started to evolve. We don’t know what it is, but once we reach the peak of the third rank, we are forcibly summoned here. You should be aware of this, we have no control, it’s a power that rules over us.”
Zhang Mu remained silent, motioning for Qing Ling to continue.
“When we entered the Era Battlefield, we were told that this is a ga. The winning race can beco the dominant force on their original planet, while the losers will beco re stepping stones for the winners.”
It all seems like a ga, and we seem like pawns in the hands of that person.
Although we are unwilling to be soone’s pawn, we are powerless to resist, we can only follow his orders.
According to his plan, we are supposed to compete against these alien creatures, and then rank the winners among the four races that entered the Era Battlefield.
It’s about our clans, there’s no choice, we must fight.
Zhang Mu knew all this information, but he was surprised by what Qing Ling knew. However, considering her identity, Zhang Mu understood.
“So, are all four tribes in Era Battlefield united externally now? After all, we all co from the sa planet.”
Here cos the most important part!
Zhang Mu looked very relaxed on the outside, casually asking, but his ears were perked up waiting for Qing Ling’s answer.
Qing Ling didn’t seem bothered, her eyes fixed on the ground as she replied casually, “It’s not that simple. Currently, the pressure from foreign creatures on us is not great. We are doing okay, minding our own business. However, the other three tribes are natural enemies, especially the zombie tribe, who use the deceased human race to expand their own population. How can we let go of such hatred?”
But the worst part is not that. Once the human race stepped in, they were besieged by the Beastn, who coincidentally joined forces with the zombie tribe to suppress the human race. Rumor has it that a fourth-rank Demon Emperor among the Beastn is giving the orders.
They are ruthless, claiming they will definitely eradicate the human race!”
Zhang Mu was not surprised, as the forr Deputy City Master of Luo Yang City had forced Wang Liang to death, and now the whereabouts of the child of the female Demon Emperor are unknown.
The hatred between ordinary people of two races only affects a small number of individuals. But if the hatred is between the leaders of two groups, escalating to absolute opposition between the two groups is quite normal.
“Is the human race struggling now?”
Zhang Mu cautiously asked, it was the question he wanted to ask the most.
But Qing Ling’s answer after the eting imdiately put Zhang Mu at ease.
“It’s not that the human race can’t hold on, it’s just that they are surrounded and unable to hunt down creatures from the other realm. Fortunately, they are lucky to have a few powerful fourth-rank earth elent experts who have set up an inexplicable array, firmly holding the last line of defense.”
Zhang Mu didn’t know who the fourth-rank earth elent experts were, but it was impossible to defend against attacks from two groups at once.
However, when Zhang Mu heard Qing Ling ntion an inexplicable array, he had a feeling of clarity.
Maybe a Junior Era Sub-rchant has stepped in!
By using items exchanged by him and combining them with the power of the earth elent experts, they set up a barrier.
Luckily, there are still Era Sub-rchants among humans, which made Zhang Mu feel sowhat relieved.
At that mont, Qing Ling continued, “Our tribe is about to hold a eting to discuss this matter, but opinions are divided. So, we are gathering strong warriors ranked fourth or above to discuss how our tribe should respond.”
A spark of hope flashed in Zhang Mu’s eyes. This was a great opportunity to save the human race. If he could persuade the plant tribe to join the battle, the pressure on the human race would greatly decrease.
However, the thought of persuading a group of plants made Zhang Mu feel overwheld.
Firstly, he needed to prepare persuasive argunts, analyzing from the perspective of the plant tribe’s interests.
Secondly, he needed to present achievents that would qualify him to attend the eting. Otherwise, suddenly advocating for the human race would raise suspicions.
Zhang Mu looked towards the open space that could soon transform into the cave ntioned by Qing Ling, his eyes filled with determination.
The success of infiltrating the core leadership of the plant tribe depended on this mont!
