Chapter 386: Chapter 184 Executioner

No wonder the Forbidden Zone Creatures disdain humans so much, yet persistently try to breach the Giant City to devour all mankind.

After all, this can stifle the birth of powerful human warriors. With fewer humans, the chances of birthing geniuses diminish.

Humans transformed by the restricted area order, if they possess Spiritual Talent, can become part of their Servant Army, bolstering the battle strength of the Forbidden Zone.

Those without Spiritual Talent can also be left to procreate, serving as spare bodies to return to the Physical World.

There may even be certain other benefits unknown to men.

Within the ark, a Human Elector once mentioned that the King of Restricted Zone could reign because he possessed enough Forbidden Zone Humans... but Li Yelai did not grasp the connection.

The battle between the Giant City and the Forbidden Zone is still at a significant disadvantage.

The human side’s warriors, bloodied and grown from talented individuals, truly die once they fall in battle.

Whereas on the Forbidden Zone side, even if a Supreme perishes, they will eventually return from the Void Realm. It’s just a matter of time.

If the human side fails to produce enough strong warriors, they will ultimately be worn down and killed off.

Moreover, the situation will worsen once those exiled Forbidden Zone Creatures return.

To contend with the Forbidden Zone, the Giant City must attain overwhelming superiority, exiling all Forbidden Zone Creatures, and before their return, accumulate enough power to maintain that crushing dominance. Otherwise, they risk being overturned.

If only the Giant City had a dozen Kings...

"Of course, there is one more method... that is for me to kill them!" Li Yelai thought to himself. He can truly eliminate Void Realm Creatures. As long as he kills enough Void Realm Creatures, the Forbidden Zone Creatures will eventually be eradicated.

However, this method requires Li Yelai himself to be incredibly strong. Right now, if he encounters a Four-Winged Angel, he would have no choice but to flee, not to mention facing even stronger foes.

Thinking this, Li Yelai glanced at the Little Mad King walking ahead and understood why she was dissatisfied with his strength.

As a Captain Level warrior, the Little Mad King had higher authority and knew many more secrets.

She probably wished that all talents could break through upon their First Awakening.

Li Yelai understood this thinking and silently pondered, "Mr. Shadow, can you kill the King of Restricted Zone?"

Li Yelai knew that Mr. Shadow could hear him. He always hid in Li Yelai’s mind, remaining silent unless it concerned a trade, when he would respond.

Li Yelai was quite suspicious that this fellow was always spying on him...

Trading permanently for a King of Restricted Zone would be an incredibly lucrative deal.

Currently, Li Yelai still had two trade opportunities left, and for the sake of safety, he decided not to use the last one.

So that left him with one more.

This time, at any rate, he should at least trade away a King of Restricted Zone.

If possible, Li Yelai planned to try to approach the core of the Forbidden Zone... Tsk, that would be quite difficult. Maybe let the King of Restricted Zone come to him, set a trap? Could his You Must Meet Strong Enemies ability draw the King of Restricted Zone to him?

Seconds later, Mr. Shadow’s indifferent voice came through, "Naturally... but our next trade must happen after six months."

Six months from now?

The last trade was to deal with the Catastrophe Fog Master, the Insect Master, two months ago. So the interval between trades needed to be eight months?

’Really bad at doing business...’ Li Yelai thought to himself reluctantly but let go of the idea.

...

Somewhere in a valley at the edge of the Heavenly Kingdom, a sizable pack of wolf creatures was running wildly through the forest.

A pack of this size posed a significant threat to nearby villages and towns.

The wolf creatures looked similar to wild wolves but had pale blue fur and were much larger.

Their strength ranged around the Second Awakening level, with special individuals possibly reaching the Third Awakening level.

Their skulls could be used as material for Spiritual Ability Equipment.

Their bone marrow was a low-level Magic Potion Material for Ravings, Wanxiang, and Netherworld Path.

Their fur also had excellent insulation properties and was highly valuable in the Forbidden Zone.

Their coordination was impeccable, often allowing them to hunt down Extraordinary Creatures that were stronger.

Even the villages of Forbidden Zone Humans had to be cautious when dealing with such Extraordinary Creatures.

The creatures were highly intelligent and frequently launched nighttime raids on villages. Even Spiritual Ability Users could be killed by them.

Therefore, the villages often organized hunting parties to enter the forests to control the number of wolf creatures. In urgent cases, they had to pay a high price to enlist Angels to act.

Yet, such a dangerous pack was now fleeing in a panic.

Two figures dashed through the woods, snapping the necks of one wolf after another, with the Alpha, a Third Awakening wolf, killed without resistance by a delicate fist.

The remaining wolf pack scattered like birds startled by the mere twang of a bow, fleeing in terror.

Naturally, it was Li Yelai and the Little Mad King who acted, neither using weapons nor abilities, relying solely on their physical strength to kill off a good portion of the pack.

Afterward, they did not pursue further but let the creatures escape.

"That should be enough," said the Little Mad King. "We peel off their fur, and we can disguise ourselves as hunters entering the city to sell. The remaining flesh just needs to be absorbed by the Path-finding Compass."

This was one reason they had not used any weapons.

They were going to disguise themselves as Forbidden Zone Human hunters.

Li Yelai nodded his head, immediately took out a small knife, and began skinning and deboning a dozen or so wolves.

The officials had conducted systematic training so Ye Boshou could harvest the materials.

However, Li Yelai was not very adept, and he ruined a few pieces of wolf fur.
