The fierce battle was like a huge meat grinder. Inside and outside Wushan City, there was a river of blood, and corpses lay everywhere.
After a day and a night of hard fighting, among the one hundred thousand martial artists from Lingfeng City, there were now fewer than sixty thousand left. The casualties were heavy. Nearly half of the martial artists were torn apart by the zombies. Only after paying such a huge price were the martial artists from Lingfeng City able to push the zombies on the north side of Wushan City back to the center of the city.
The situation in Tianfeng City and Shuhan City was even more tragic. Among the one hundred thousand martial artist teams from each city, less than half remained now.
"Commander Wang, something seems wrong."
The martial artists from Lingfeng City, Tianfeng City, and Shuhan City had already gathered together. Commander Xiao of Tianfeng City looked at Commander Wang of Lingfeng City with a serious expression.
"Wushan City is just a dilapidated and ruined city. Yet both the Divine Race and the demon beasts are willing to sacrifice so much and not take a single step back. There must be something fishy going on."
There were several ferocious cracks on Wang Zuo's silver battle armor from Lingfeng City, and his black cape was stained with blood. As a cold wind suddenly blew, the dark red cape soaked in blood carried a murderous intent and fluttered in the wind, making a flapping sound.
"What instructions does the Jiujiang Headquarters have?"
Commander Ye of Shuhan City was silent for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the young man standing calmly beside Wang Zuo, holding a white jade fan in his hand.
Hearing Commander Ye's question, both Wang Zuo and Commander Xiao of Tianfeng City shifted their gazes to the young man at the same time.
"A ruined city. Naturally, the Divine Race and the demon beasts wouldn't be willing to invest so much in it. But what if there's a possibility of a 'Divine Miracle' appearing in this ruined city?"
The young man in a silver battle armor, with four golden lines on his chest, calmly shook the white jade fan in his hand and said unhurriedly.
"Divine Miracle."
The three of them exclaimed simultaneously and stared at the young man in astonishment.
"Hehe, I'm not sure if there's a Divine Miracle either. But apart from this reason that can make the Divine Race and the demon beasts go crazy, I can't think of any other reason."
The young man shrugged. A cold glint flashed through the depths of his eyes as he looked towards the center of Wushan City.
"Let's camp here temporarily. In at least three days and at most seven days, everything will be clear."
The young man smiled slightly and stopped talking.
Commander Wang, Commander Xiao, and Commander Ye, three upper-level Transcendent Realm powerhouses, looked at the calmly standing young man with serious expressions, then turned and walked towards their respective teams.
"Brother Han, is there really going to be a Divine Miracle here?"
After the three of them had left, a teenager also wearing a silver battle suit finally asked curiously.
"Damn it, Xiao Jiu, are you kidding me? How could I possibly know if there's a Divine Miracle or not?"
The young man smiled wickedly and gently tapped Xiao Jiu on the head with the white jade fan in his hand.
"Then what you said just now..."
Xiao Jiu rubbed his head, which hurt a bit from being tapped by Han Lingyue, and looked at Han Lingyue with a somewhat depressed expression. He opened his mouth, but before he could finish a sentence, Han Lingyue leaned close to him sneakily, leaned into his ear, and whispered softly.
"I want to go play in the center of the city. I was afraid they would disturb me, so I sent them away."
"Uh~"
Hearing Han Lingyue's sneaky voice, Xiao Jiu immediately rolled his eyes and was at a loss for words.
"Hehe, do you remember that kid from the Hanjiang Forest last time?" Han Lingfeng looked around, then lowered his voice and said in Xiao Jiu's ear.
"Of course I remember."
When Xiao Jiu heard Han Lingfeng mention the teenager from the Hanjiang Forest, a fierce fighting spirit suddenly surged within him.
"Let's call him and the three of us go play in the center of the city together. What do you think?"
Han Lingfeng grinned and said enthusiastically.
"No way."
"Do you think others are fools? It's okay for you to be crazy on your own, but why drag others into it? Besides, I won't accompany you to be crazy either."
Xiao Jiu pouted and firmly shook his head.
"Are you really not going?""No.""Alright then. I know you're afraid of losing to him. If you don't want to go, then don't. I understand... Sigh."
Han Lingfeng gave Xiao Jiu a sarcastic look and pretended to look extremely remorseful.
"Fine, I'll go. Who says I, Xiao Jiu, am afraid of losing?"
When Xiao Jiu saw Han Lingfeng's look of disdain towards him, a surge of blood suddenly rose in his heart.
"Are you really going?""Yes.""But how can you be sure that he will definitely go?"
Xiao Jiu stared at Han Lingfeng suspiciously.
"Hehe, who do you think your Brother Han is? When have I ever made a mistake? He will definitely go."
......
Ke Bei stood on an abandoned tall building, counted the Divine Pills in the leather pouch around his waist, and his brows furrowed tightly into the shape of the Chinese character "Chuan". There was a thick and lingering sense of worry between his brows.
After a day and a night of hard fighting, Ke Bei had killed a total of thirteen junior members of the Divine Race.
"I'm still eighty-seven short."
Looking towards the center of Wushan City, Ke Bei was silent for a long time, then slowly let out a sigh. Just now, an order had come from above to camp here temporarily. Judging from the situation, it seemed that a protracted battle was about to begin.
The Guardian Squad could afford to wait, but Ke Bei couldn't. There were still four days left. If he couldn't complete the mission, then he would have no chance to practice internal energy in the future. Just thinking about this made Ke Bei feel an urge to go crazy.
He wasn't even sure if there were eighty-seven junior members of the Divine Race left in Wushan City. Even if he was lucky and there were enough junior members of the Divine Race in Wushan City, now the three parties had temporarily stopped fighting.
Without the three parties fighting, how could he, alone, kill the members of the Divine Race that were hiding in the center of Wushan City? Who knew how many middle-level and high-level members of the Divine Race were in there?
"Damn it, what should I do?"
Ke Bei punched the floor slab. With a boom, a hole appeared in the floor slab. Several bloodshot eyes appeared in Ke Bei's eyes. He was extremely anxious. Four days was really too tight.
"Hehe, little brother, you're really angry."
Han Lingfeng had somehow silently come to the top floor where Ke Bei was. Looking at the floor slab that had been punched through by Ke Bei, he said with a smile.
"Who are you?"
Ke Bei looked at Han Lingfeng with some vigilance. The young man in front of him had silently come within less than three meters of him, and he hadn't noticed it at all.
"Han Lingfeng, from Lingfeng City."
Han Lingfeng seemed not to notice the vigilance in Ke Bei's eyes and familiarly extended his right hand.
"Ke Bei, from the Ningxing Squad of Lingfeng City."
Ke Bei couldn't figure out what the young man meant, but out of politeness, he also extended his hand and shook hands with the young man.
"Brother, do you want to hunt down members of the Divine Race?"
A trace of cunning flashed through the depths of Han Lingfeng's eyes. He looked at Ke Bei with a half-smile and said.
"Yes, I really do. But I don't dare to."
Ke Bei looked at Han Lingfeng suspiciously. This young man seemed to know something about him.
"Damn it, are you serious? Are you a man or not? If you want to do it, just go for it. What are you afraid of?"
Han Lingfeng suddenly slapped Ke Bei on the shoulder, his emotions a bit excited.
"To kill members of the Divine Race now, we can only go to the center of the city. Who knows how many terrifying existences are gathered there now? I'm a real man, but I really don't have the ability."
Ke Bei shook his head and let out a slight sigh.
"They're just a bunch of brainless beasts. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Ah, if they were just junior members of the Divine Race, I wouldn't be afraid. But once I encounter a middle-level or even a high-level member of the Divine Race, I really can't deal with them. It's not a matter of being afraid or not. I can't risk my life, can I?"
Ke Bei smiled bitterly in frustration. There were still four days left, and it wasn't time to risk his life yet. If it were the last day, he might really follow the young man in front of him and charge into the center of the city. But it wasn't the last step yet, and Ke Bei didn't want to risk his life.
"That's all nonsense. What Divine Race? They're all rubbish. Whether they're middle-level or high-level, they're all the same, just a bunch of undeveloped creatures that only know how to use brute force."
Han Lingfeng cursed disdainfully.
"Follow me, and I'll lead you to kill them. They're just a bunch of rubbish. You don't have to worry about the middle-level and high-level members of the Divine Race. If one shows up, I'll kill one."
Han Lingfeng was full of pride and said indifferently.
"Are you in or not? Give me a straightforward answer."
Ke Bei was stunned and didn't speak for a long time. He was shocked by the young man in front of him. Kill one middle-level or high-level member of the Divine Race as soon as one shows up?
This was incredibly domineering.
"Are you sure? Can you really deal with middle-level and even high-level members of the Divine Race?"
Naturally, Ke Bei wouldn't risk his life and follow him just because of the young man's words. He asked tentatively.
"Damn it, you're really not as manly as Xiao Jiu. At least he's more of a man than you."
Han Lingfeng muttered. He knew that if he didn't show some real ability, the teenager in front of him wouldn't follow him. Without any obvious movement, a golden light appeared in his eyes, and he stared fiercely at Ke Bei.
Boom.
Suddenly, Ke Bei felt his body sink heavily, as if an invisible mountain had suddenly pressed down on him. With a boom, his legs sank into the floor slab.
It was terrifying.
Ke Bei looked at the man in horror. He was so pressed down by this huge pressure that he couldn't move at all. He couldn't even blink his eyes.
"Do you believe it now?"
The golden light in Han Lingfeng's eyes gradually faded. Ke Bei suddenly felt a great sense of relief. After a while, he spat out a mouthful of saliva and nodded with difficulty.
"Are you willing to go and deal with those beasts with me now?"
Han Lingfeng looked at Ke Bei, who was too shocked to speak, and smiled with satisfaction.
"Yes, let's kill them."
A surge of ecstasy welled up in Ke Bei's heart, and he nodded vigorously.
"Haha, that's more like a man. Follow me."
