chapter-785
Qin Feng furrowed his brows and said, “Spatial equipment cannot be opened inside. If it’s too laborious to carry the resources, I would rather prioritize saving the others first.”
Jiang Haolin nodded and said, “Without a doubt.”
Actually, Jiang Haolin found it difficult to understand. After all, Chungluo City was not a low-class colony but an A-tier large-scale settlement. The place was overflowing with wealth.
Naturally, the most valuable treasures of this city were hidden inside the special dimension. It was all free for Qin Feng to take.
Yet, Qin Feng was disdainful of the idea. Jiang Haolin wondered whether Qin Feng was really not interested, or was simply faking it.Qin Feng suddenly opened his mouth again, “By the way…”
Jiang Haolin raised his head. He thought that Qin Feng was going to ask about the treasures. All the righteous words he had said were just a smokescreen.
Unexpectedly, Qin Feng said, “Remember to have someone guard the perimeter. Do not let anyone else enter other than our own people.”
Jiang Haolin was baffled.
Qin Feng frowned and said, “How did you come out? Have you forgotten how dangerous it is?”
Ability users inside the city were currently as fragile as a toddler. They were not only exposed to the ultra beasts but might also be killed by other aptitude users.
The aptitude users trapped inside the city did not know whether they could leave this place or not. But that would not stop them from having covetous thoughts. They could kill those ability users above them and rob their spatial equipment.It was too tempting!
Perhaps members of the Human Alliance would not do such an unethical thing but those under the Dark Coalition would not care. If those ancient warriors that excelled in parallel training came running after learning the news, these ability users were just lambs waiting to be slayed.
Jiang Haolin finally came to his senses.
“Roger! I will arrange right away.”
They were at about the same tier, but Jiang Haolin obviously viewed Qin Feng as the indisputable leader from that moment on.
Soon, they had everything ready. However, only eleven ancient warriors expressed interest in joining. Nevertheless, Qin Feng believed that there were more to come since the mission had been posted online.
But he did not wish to wait any longer. Qin Feng ordered them to enter first.
Bai Li immediately opened up a spatial tunnel. Qin Feng entered with the others in an outdated battle vehicle that did not even have auto-pilot mode.
“Get the repellent powder ready. Be prepared to battle!”
There were a total of eleven ancient warriors who traveled in five cars.
Qin Feng stood on the first battle vehicle and opened the bag containing repellent powder.
The powder was poured onto the ground as the convoy circled along the city perimeter.
It was time-consuming work but it was necessary.
Right now, the entire Chungluo City had fallen into this peculiar dimension. If this city were discovered by beasts, they would swarm this place in no time and it would probably snowball into a beast wave. No matter how strong Qin Feng was, he would be helpless without internal strength and consciousness.
He could leave anytime but the others would probably die here.
“General Qin, there’s some movement.”
“Here they come!”
The aptitude users were slightly panicked and uneasy. Without consciousness and perception, they could not even probe the level of the approaching beast.
They finally got a good look when the beasts were close enough. It was a herd of C-tier cat beasts, probably leopards because they were moving extremely fast.
There were no less than twenty beasts in the group.
“Get down!”
Qin Feng led the way and jumped down from the backseat.
The herd had discovered Qin Feng and co. too. They sneezed and lingered in disgust. It seemed that they had no intention of going near the humans.
Undoubtedly, the repellent powder was working perfectly.
Though the beasts were deterred by the powder, Qin Feng did not plan to let them go. He would kill as many beasts as possible.
Qin Feng charged at the beasts rapidly. He aimed at one of the leopards and hacked it with his Verdant Emperor Saber.
Poof!
The powerful strike instantly beheaded the beast. It was still in running motion but only the body and limbs were moving forward. The body fell three meters later with blood gushing out from its neck.
Qin Feng continued to swing his Verdant Emperor Saber. One after another cat beast fell under the ferocious saber.
“Awoo!”
The beasts shrieked in an ear-piercing voice. They were obviously threatening Qin Feng as they moved even faster. The group tacitly surrounded Qin Feng and attacked him simultaneously.
The first three beasts were slashed by Qin Feng and had their chest ripped by the saber. Their claws were cut off but more beasts came after them.
Slash!
Qin Feng evaded a vital attack but still felt the pain as if his back was being cut by a sharp knife. His battle suit was instantly shredded.
The armor underneath the suit served its purpose well and protected Qin Feng’s body from severe injuries. Besides, Qin Feng had a great physique so the assault was not lethal to him.
But then, a horrible shriek was heard from not far away.
“Ah!”
One of the ancient warriors did not evade in time and got hit on the stomach. A long wound streaked across his waist. The runic inner armor was useless against the cat’s devastating slash.
The aptitude user’s intestine was dragged out by the claws.
The cat beast had bloodshot eyes. Seeing that the first attack had landed effectively, it suddenly sped up and jumped on the C-tier ancient warrior. The user was ripped apart within seconds!
It was not entirely surprising. An ancient warrior could only handle a beast that was a tier weaker to begin with.
Moreover, these ancient warriors were further weakened without any internal strength now. They were only slightly stronger than the civilians.
Qin Feng’s face changed when he saw such a development. He turned to the cat and put it down quickly.
Each time Qin Feng swung the Verdant Emperor Saber, a beast would be killed.
The skirmish did not last more than twenty minutes. These cat beasts knew they were no match against Qin Feng and fled in fear. There were twenty of them initially and only five had managed to get away safely.
But Qin Feng’s party did not fare very well either.
One of the ancient warriors was killed while three suffered major injuries. They could no longer fight.
Qin Feng was beyond gloomy.
Humans had no place in the Fettering Land.
“Argh! I regret this!” One of the ancient warriors bellowed in tears. He was extremely frail after sustaining the heavy attack.
“Stop yelling!” Qin Feng ran over and wrapped the injured user’s chest with a bandage. But before Qin Feng could finish, the aptitude user took his last breath.
His heart had been penetrated by the beast’s attack.
Qin Feng was stunned and stopped moving.
The others were shocked too and became indecisive. They did not want to face the same fate.
Qin Feng’s heart was getting heavier and heavier.
Zap!
A spatial tunnel opened not very far from them. When Qin Feng began to circle the city, Bai Li was also following closely as a backup. They did not expect such a tragedy to happen so soon.
“Return to the city now. Tell them the danger level has increased. Only aptitude users with B-tier parallel training are qualified to come.”
“Yes, General Qin!”
“We will deliver your message, General!” These people replied gratefully. At least they did not need to risk their lives now.
