Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Robbed_1
Ten kiloters was a short sprint for an off-road vehicle with full off-road capabilities, just a few taps on the gas pedal.
Two minutes later, Wang Zhan could already see the embattled soldiers from a distance.
Yang Hu drove while maintaining communication with the team on site.
His expression suddenly shifted. "It’s not just a level 9 beast! This is a small Beast Tide led by a level 9 beast! At least dozens of beasts have gathered!"
In fact, without Yang Hu needing to say anything, Wang Zhan and Song Dongming could already see the situation in the distance.
"I’ll go first!" Wang Zhan, as usual, leapt from the moving off-road vehicle and rushed into the battlefield at a speed exceeding the vehicle’s.
Hundreds of soldiers had set up a temporary defense line. Those wielding firearms provided cover from the rear, while soldiers at level 5 or 6 held the front line.
They faced a small Beast Tide led by a level 9 beast, bolstered by nurous level 7 and level 8 beasts!
In the short ti it took Wang Zhan to reach the scene, he witnessed seven or eight soldiers being torn apart by beasts, their bodies not even left intact.
Although Wang Zhan had seen such scenes several tis in recent days, he couldn’t suppress the anger in his heart.
His speed increased further, and when he was re tens of ters from the battlefield, he pushed off powerfully from the ground, launching himself forward like an arrow!
A level 8 beast had already opened its gaping maw, and before it stood a soldier whose face showed grim determination, ready to die.
Just as the beast’s blood-red maw was about to snap shut, Wang Zhan arrived, delivering a ruthless punch filled with killing intent!
BOOM!
An explosive sound rang out as the head of an unidentified level 8 beast was directly pulverized by Wang Zhan! Fresh blood and viscous gore splattered everywhere, and its beast core disintegrated into dust.
"Fall back!" Wang Zhan commanded, shielding the soldier.
The soldiers’ spirits lifted at Wang Zhan’s arrival.
"It’s Captain Yang Hu’s team!"
"Brother Wang is aweso!"
"Hahaha, with Brother Wang here, that level 9 beast is nothing!"
Over the past few days, Wang Zhan had already made quite a na for himself among the soldiers.
The soldier Wang Zhan had saved was visibly thrilled, but upon hearing Wang Zhan’s command, he didn’t dare delay and quickly retreated to the rear.
With Wang Zhan present, they no longer needed to hold the very front.
At the sa ti, Song Dongming also arrived at the scene, coming to Wang Zhan’s side.
"You go help the soldiers deal with the nearby level 7 beasts they can’t handle. Leave anything level 8 or higher to ," Wang Zhan said quickly.
Song Dongming nodded and charged directly into the horde of beasts.
This was no ti for banter; their purpose was not only to slay beasts but, more importantly, to minimize soldier casualties.
Under these circumstances, Wang Zhan’s arrangent was clearly the most appropriate.
Seeing that Song Dongming had already begun fighting, Wang Zhan unhesitatingly charged toward another nearby level 8 beast.
As for the level 9 beast in the distance, clearly a cut above the others, Wang Zhan didn’t have ti to deal with it yet.
A small-scale Beast Tide was clearly not sothing that could be dealt with easily.
Twenty minutes had passed since Wang Zhan arrived on the scene. During these twenty minutes, four level 8 beasts and over a dozen lower-level beasts had fallen at his hands!
If the beasts had attacked him one by one, Wang Zhan’s efficiency would have been even higher! But clearly, the beasts didn’t play by such rules; they always sward.
As a result, even with Wang Zhan’s stamina and strength, he had faced several perilous monts dealing with these beasts, and his stamina had significantly depleted.
Whew... Still more than thirty beasts left, but the soldiers and Song Dongming should be able to hold them off.
Wang Zhan casually twisted the head off a level 6 beast, his gaze fixed on a strange-looking beast a hundred ters away.
The beast stood over ten ters tall, yet its body was lean and elongated, sowhat resembling a giraffe.
Strange, irregular patterns covered its entire body, and its mouth was filled with small, yet razor-sharp teeth.
This level 9 beast had been kept suppressed by the soldiers’ firearms.
This wasn’t because the bullets could harm it, but because the soldiers were also equipped with a considerable number of tranquilizers specifically designed for beasts.
While these tranquilizers were unlikely to make a level 9 beast lose its ability to resist and actually pass out, they could certainly make it groggy.
At least, in the less than half an hour since Wang Zhan’s arrival, this level 9 beast had remained in a dazed state, making no significant moves.
Ti to take care of it. Wang Zhan, seeing the situation sowhat stabilized, turned his attention to the tall level 9 beast.
The next mont, Wang Zhan rushed over without hesitation.
However, just as Wang Zhan arrived in front of this level 9 beast, the previously dazed beast’s eyes suddenly glinted with a dangerous light.
What the—?! Wang Zhan, already lunging with his dagger, was startled by the big guy’s sudden recovery.
SQUELCH!
The dagger plunged deeply into the abdon of the level 9 beast, and blood gushed out freely.
Wang Zhan could even pierce the defenses of the Purple-scaled Snake, a level 9 beast renowned for its defense, let alone this level 9 beast that relied rely on its hide.
But before Wang Zhan could rejoice in his successful strike, a sharp cry suddenly rang out.
SQUEAK! SQUEAK! SQUEAK!
The sound was extrely piercing. Wang Zhan, bearing the brunt of it, stumbled back several steps before collapsing heavily to the ground.
Blood oozed from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. His ridians felt like they were about to burst, and grueso blue veins bulged all over his body.
Not only that, he felt his Essence Energy begin to rage uncontrollably within him! His ntal energy was on the verge of collapsing!
Alard, Wang Zhan’s first instinct was to look back.
He then saw that on the battlefield behind him, nearly all the soldiers had lost consciousness. Even Song Dongming had collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, his eyes glazed over.
It wasn’t just the humans; most of the beasts were in the sa state.
Damn it, this is a ntal energy attack! Wang Zhan cursed inwardly.
The unknown beast before him was clearly no simple foe; this ntal energy attack, delivered through sound waves, was likely its Talent skill.
A level 9 beast that also possessed a Talent skill.
This was almost the pinnacle of combat power achievable below soldier-level beasts.
Just then, the level 9 beast opened its mouth again.
SQUEEE! SQUEEE! SQUEEE~!
If the previous sound was a wide-area, indiscriminate attack, this one was aid entirely at Wang Zhan!
The instant the sound erupted, Wang Zhan felt a stabbing pain in his mind. His ntal energy, which he had just managed to extend, was instantly forced back like a receding tide.
Wang Zhan’s head throbbed as if it would split, his eyes already bloodshot.
But he quickly saw the level 9 beast opening its mouth for a third ti!
Damn it, is this never going to end?!
Wang Zhan’s expression hardened; he too possessed a ntal energy attack!
The Five Thunder Deity Refinent thod, aside from cultivation, was itself a ntal Energy Cultivation thod for attacks! However, to use the ntal energy attack of the Five Thunder Deity Refinent thod, one needed to at least break through to the Warrior level to use it properly.
Otherwise, it was very easy to fall into a state of ntal energy disorder.
But right now, there was no ti for such considerations.
"Five Thunder Deity Refinent thod, Golden Lightning!"
SQUEEE! SQUEEE! SQUEEE!
Wang Zhan’s shout and the level 9 beast’s piercing cry sounded almost simultaneously.
This ti, perhaps because he had also activated a ntal energy technique, Wang Zhan suffered little damage.
On the contrary, the Spiritual Energy within a fifteen-ter radius around him had returned to his control!
Moreover, within this range where he could control Spiritual Energy, golden electric arcs perated the air, occasionally emitting crackling sounds. At a glance, the very air seed to be distorted.
The mont the level 9 beast’s cry ceased, Wang Zhan moved.
All the golden electric arcs around him converged in an instant, forming a bolt of lightning that, at a speed almost invisible to the naked eye, shot into the level 9 beast’s head.
Imdiately, the level 9 beast’s massive body began to tremble, its once ferocious eyes becoming dull.
The next mont, its entire body stiffened, and it collapsed heavily to the ground.
"Huff... huff..."
Wang Zhan slumped to the ground, panting heavily, his eyes wide with an indescribable expression of horror.
He felt a tightness in his chest, forcing him to gasp for breath.
His mind was in turmoil, filled with flickering fragnts of past mories and images.
These fragnts flickered continuously, leading up to today! To just now! To this very instant! This very mont!
When the images in Wang Zhan’s mind finally overlapped with the scene before his eyes, he snapped back to his senses.
I absolutely must not use my ntal energy again until I break through to the Warrior level! Wang Zhan made this decision instantly.
Did I just experience a ’review of my life’s mories’? Isn’t that sothing people supposedly only see when they’re about to die?!
Moreover, Wang Zhan felt a wave of lingering fear. He was afraid that if those images in his mind had gotten stuck at any point, would he have suffered a ntal energy disorder and gone mad on the spot?
But no matter what, he had ultimately, by a stroke of luck, killed this unknown beast that possessed a Talent skill.
Right, I haven’t received a notification for extre attribute points yet. Wang Zhan looked at the level 9 beast lying stiffly on the ground. Although it seed on its last breath, it was clear it was still alive.
"Not dead yet, huh? Let
help you," Wang Zhan said with a cold smile, getting up from the ground.
But just then, the sound of footsteps echoed from a distance.
Wang Zhan instinctively looked over and saw a young woman as lovely as a porcelain doll.
The young woman was strikingly beautiful, with delicate features and shoulder-length hair, looking to be about eighteen or nineteen years old.
In such a dangerous place as the wilderness, she was surprisingly dressed in a long white gown, the hem of which revealed her fair and slender calves.
For a mont, Wang Zhan was stunned.
The young woman took small, slightly awkward steps, arriving beside the level 9 beast.
She glanced at Wang Zhan and gave him a sweet smile.
Then, she suddenly drew a longsword from behind her back and thrust it through the unknown beast’s neck.
"What the fuck!"
