Chapter 372: Chapter 312: The Real Target [2/3]

Dong Huang Shui Ze State Region.

Dark clouds enshrouded the area, and gray fog drifted through while a red moon hung high, spreading a chill, eerie breath between heaven and earth.

On the ground, monstrous and hideous Mysterious Evils howled at the red moon with a tooth-grinding screech. As a huge transport aircraft approached from the distance, these Mysterious Evils boiled over with activity, roaring as they lunged forward.

Among them, the Mysterious Evils capable of flying were even faster. Two bird-like creatures with human faces spread their tattered wing-like appendages, emitting piercing shrieks. Their sharp, cold-grey talons were raised, aiming toward...

Bang—

Halfway through their flight, the bird-like creatures appeared to have been struck by a tremendous force. Their abdomens caved inward and then compressed the rest of their bodies, rippling outward like cascading waves.

It was as if two balloons, full of air, had been violently pressed...

and they burst with a thunderous explosion.

Only fragments of tattered black feathers drifted down.

Fan Anyuan stepped out from the opened hatch, hovering mid-air, only then slowly retracting his fist. Seeing those Mysterious Evils that, undeterred by fear, still surged forward one after another, he clenched his fist again and twisted his waist...

Ora, ora, ora, ora—

Fists blurred like phantoms.

Punches with the force of cannonballs thundered out, interleaved with Fan Anyuan’s unique ’Shockwave Ripples’ and the ’Explosive’ ability brought by the Strange Implement gauntlets.

Booming—

It was as if countless shells had bombarded simultaneously, raising clouds of smoke and creating numerous pits of various sizes on the hillside.

As the dust settled, the surroundings cleared.

Only then did the transport slowly land, carrying only the new recruits, the trainees inside. Witnessing the impressive display of power by Fan Anyuan, they couldn’t help but gape in amazement.

"Is this really something a human can achieve?"

"It’s more terrifying than several mortars firing at once."

"Boss, what a boss!"

Many of the new recruits came from ordinary Prometheus training camps, and it’s not that they had never seen a Fire Holder class boss before, but they didn’t recognize them, and even if they did, they never had the chance to witness them in action.

Today, they truly opened their eyes.

A number of new recruits exclaimed that it had been worth it.

The veterans shook their heads.

"Hey, that’s nothing. You haven’t seen Boss Xu in action. His punch could level mountains."

"Why not mention Miss An, with her ritual circles spreading across the sky and earth, summoning a meteor to fall from the heavens with a howl, like the end of the world—no matter how many times one recalls it, it’s always stunning."

"Miss An is just off the charts, that’s too far-fetched. If you’re going to compare like that, why not talk about the instructor? When the instructor makes a move, it’s like... uh."

The speaking veteran suddenly stumbled over his words.

He had never seen the instructor in action, had he? No, none of them had.

Seeing the new recruits still looking expectant, hoping to hear about the instructor’s illustrious deeds from their senior peers, the veterans felt awkward.

"Ahem!"

"What are you dilly-dallying for, move out already! There’s no time to waste."

...

Fan Anyuan’s combat team, upon arriving at Dispatch Map 36, immediately began to clear the peripheral Mysterious Evils, and to delay and guide their trajectories.

At this moment, although it was said to be a million Mysterious Evils, compared to the previous super wave, the Evil Tide was quite sparse, stretched out long before and after, not fully amalgamated into one single mass but instead moving toward the base city in groups of tens of thousands.

Solely holding back and constraining them was far less dangerous than before.

The new recruits constantly fired with their Explosive rifles.

The veterans roamed the periphery of the Evil Tide, fighting as they retreated.

"Fall back to Zone C of Area 36."

"Disperse immediately; do not contend with the tide."

Ten seconds after the order was issued, on a distant mountaintop, a dazzling blue radiance burst forth. A torrent of energy, intensified by guidance, slammed into the dense Evil Tide.

The earth shook.

Rocks and stones cascaded down.

As the bright light and dust gradually subsided, what lay before them was a huge, fan-shaped gap, the ground sunk by several meters. The surging tide suddenly paused, as if a large chunk had been bitten off.

By the time it gathered again, it had thinned significantly.

Fan Anyuan issued the order,

"Move to the next battle zone."

...

...

Fan Anyuan, Xu Tian, Luo Rui, Jiang Nian, Shi Yunxi, Bai Yansi... among other torchbearers and recipients of the Fire Holder medals, were leading teams to snipe at various sections of the Evil Tide.

They all possessed the non-human level of the Four Senses, with extraordinary combat power.

With the support of war weapons like the Strange Crystal Gun, they were highly efficient in eliminating the enemy.

However, the teams were only confronting the ’lower density’ waves with ’fewer mid-to-high-level Mystic Evils,’ which had already been marked clearly on the Dispatch Map. This allowed Fang You to precisely deploy forces for maximum effectiveness.

As for the ’high density’ and ’high danger’ waves, naturally...

...

In a location within Greater Asia,

The fist glow blazed like a fierce fire and surged like tumultuous waves, blasting a massive Hellhound into tatters, then thoroughly smashing it with Iron Fist.

"Boom—"

The huge and ferocious Mystic Evil fell, and with it collapsed the mountain it had branded, crumbling into innumerable falling rocks with a thunderous roar.

Dust rose like columns, shooting hundreds of meters high.

Layers of gray-brown shockwaves rolled outward, flinging rocks and snapping trees.

But when the impact reached a bare-chested, bronze-toned figure, what seemed like tidal shock waves turned into mere drizzle, with sharp flying stones shattering instantly upon contact.

It was as though they were mere specks of cow hair.

The tough, bronze man stood firm in the rain and wind without a furrowed brow, just a grass root clenched between his teeth, his arms crossed, and his eyes scanning assertively over the Mystic Evils charging at him.

"The Evil Tide is nothing special!"

Despite the fact that just over a month ago, he nearly lost his life while scouting in the midst of the Evil Tide.

But after thirty days east of the river and thirty west, he, Xing Jinglei, was no longer the man he used to be.

He, a Six Senses level sovereign, had cultivated the epic ’Gluttonous Body Refining’ skill. He had never felt so powerful; he felt invincible!

Cough cough,

Of course, invincibility was an illusion. After practicing Gluttonous Body Refining, he certainly narrowed the gap with the likes of Black Blade, but catching up would still take more effort.

His body surged with energy.

Before departing, he had already devoured a massive amount of food. Now, his body overflowed with boundless strength. The Gluttonous Body Refining had significantly enhanced his physique, as well as the formidable defensive power from skills like ’Steel Bone.’

Furthermore, this body refining skill granted him the fierce close-combat ability of the ’Gluttonous Behemoth.’

Xing Jinglei pounced like a beast.

His two-meter-tall figure seemed punier than the Calamity Grade Mystic Evil, but more monstrous and ferocious than the Mystic Evils themselves.

Punch thundered.

Claws tore.

Knees kicked.

Xing Jing Lei tore apart a Calamity Level Mysterious Evil dozens of meters tall with brute force.

He was drenched in blood, issuing a devil-like hearty laughter.

"Who else is there!"

Dozens of minutes later, Xing Jing Lei burst out from the other end of the Evil Tide, covered in wounds, though he could not stop gasping for breath, but...

He felt incredibly exhilarated! Refreshed!

"Your lordship here has already slaughtered his way through the Evil Tide!"

’Ding!’

’Reminder: You have accumulated 14 kills of "Calamity Level Mysterious Evil" and 3 kills of "Hell-level Mysterious Evil." Combat target achieved, you may now proceed to the rest area~!’

...

Elsewhere, another high-risk battlefield.

Dozens of kilometers away from the front end of the Evil Tide, several Strange Crystal Guns were being set up, and a small vine Wood wall was slowly rising.

Boom—

Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted in the distance, and a tangerine Flame lit up the sky, illuminating the dark Scarlet sky with a blazing red glow.

Below those rolling flames, within the sea of fire, the girl’s burgundy hair flowed madly, almost turning into flame itself.

"Fireball!"

"Hurricane!"

She clasped her hands together, laughing maniacally, "Fire Tornado, burn everything away—"

A fiery tornado rolled out, followed swiftly by the natural formation of a second and third around Yiluo Xi. The flames incinerated everything around them, and the fire dragons rampaged, destroying everything in their path.

During this time, some Mysterious Evil attacked her, either shooting from afar or attempting to sneak attack their leader.

But all were stopped three feet from her body, their physical attacks falling powerlessly, their energy dissipating into nothingness.

She seemed to be single-handedly suppressing a terrifying Evil Tide.

"As expected of myself!"

"Wahahaha—"

’Ding!’

’Reminder: You have accumulated 5 kills of "Calamity Level Mysterious Evil," 1 kill of "Hell-Level Mysterious Evil," and several "Common Mystic Evil." The first phase combat target has been achieved. Please proceed immediately to the next combat area to commence the second phase of combat.’

’Reminder: Repeat, proceed immediately to the next combat area~...’

Feeling her life energy was not abundant, Yiluo Xi pursed her lips, "Alright, alright."

...

...

In yet another place,

"Boom—!"

The Forge Golem, shrouded in black fog, and the White Silk Mysterious Evil, spreading miles of white silk with a wave of the hand, the two Six-stars, under An Jianyou’s empowerment, ganged up to righteously pummel a wild Six-star before them.

This White Silk Mysterious Evil was the second and only rare six-star An Jianyou found after the Red Silk.

This one did not continue to evolve.

It was an ordinary little Six-star, called ’White Silk Mysterious Evil’.

With two Six-star main forces, plus the Hellhound, the Laughing Puppet, and other five-star Mysterious Evil assistance, it didn’t take long to slay the wild Calamity Grade Mysterious Evil.

"Took it down."

"Next one, next one."

"Let me see, first go here, then there, and then that spot, followed by this one... That should nearly do it."

An Jianyou rode the Hundred-eyed Flying Fish toward the next area.

...

...

Time passed, turning from day to deep night.

However, whether in daylight or now, the sky appeared just as dark as night, with a sinister and ominous Red Moon hanging high.

The survivors were still hiding in shelters, eating simple food that had been delivered.

In some larger shelters, big screens were broadcasting current wartime news.

"Up to now, Mysterious Evil Tides have emerged in many places, but all have been repelled by our warriors outside the base cities."

"Let us pray for the warriors, that they return safely."

The battles everywhere were going smoothly, but neither Fang You, Black Blade, Liu Chang, Wang Chui, nor anyone else dared to take it lightly.

These Mysterious Evil Tides were merely cannon fodder to deplete the Torchfire’s strength; what followed... would likely be the enemy’s real assault!

And surely, they would pick one main area to attack.

And this area,

...

In his cold eyes, the bustling Shuize Base City reflected.

Looking at the defenses being hurriedly set up, the Blood Emperor was slightly surprised.

"They guessed it."

"My chosen main attack area."

Shuize, as the first established base city, had the most complete defense facilities among the ten base cities and was definitely the toughest nut to crack.

Yet, the Blood Emperor still chose this place as his target.

It was not unexpected, but rather...

He intended to eradicate Blue Star’s high-end forces!

He had prepared the Red Moon ritual, the Evil Tide, among other means to weaken Blue Star’s power, but the goal wasn’t merely to destroy one or two Dawn base cities; it was to completely strip Blue Star of its ability to resist and to slay that one person!

For this reason, he chose Shuize Base City, the ’headquarters’ of Blue Star.

It didn’t matter that he’d been guessed.

It only proved that Blue Star... indeed deserved his serious attention.

...

Fang You gazed at the Scarlet night sky.

He had indeed anticipated this.

There was no joy in being right; it didn’t affect the overall situation.

After all, even if he hadn’t anticipated...

"Just take the Secret Realm passage to the other base cities."
