Chapter 78: Kill Monsters and Make Money at the Same Time!
“As expected… It’s alive again, and even stronger this time!”
Lin Futian’s words sent chills through the hearts of the four others.
Alive again.
The words sounded bizarre, yet they were undeniable facts!
Only those who had experienced the annual beast tides understood that the massive white ape with dark golden eyes had already been killed 11 times by Lin Futian and the other four!
It had died eleven times, and yet here it was again.
No one knew the reason.
Even Xiao Longyu, the base governor, only knew that this white ape was tied to an immense secret hidden behind the world itself!
But this secret was beyond his reach… He wasn’t qualified to be involved.
“We’ve already killed it eleven times, and yet it’s still not completely dead… This thing is unbelievably resilient!”
“If it’s coming, let it come. No matter how many times it comes, we’ll keep killing it!”
Then, Xiao Longyu uttered something that made the others’ expressions turn grim.
“Everyone, something seems off this time!”
As he spoke, their eyes immediately locked onto a new creature behind the colossal white ape—a massive red beast with fiery limbs and three blazing horns on its forehead: the Trihorn Flame Rhino!
This flaming rhino’s size nearly matched that of the white ape. Its massive hooves crushed trees with ease, leaving huge craters behind.
Its sheer power suggested that its strength was likely on par with the white ape!
“A new beast we’ve never seen before!”
“Fighting just one of them is exhausting enough, and now there’s another… This year’s beast tide won’t be as easy to survive as before!”
“What’s the point of overthinking? One comes, kill one. Two come, kill them both!”
The five warriors each raised their weapons, their hands glowing with their respective elemental auras—fire, frost, wind, lightning, and metal.
Each of them practiced a different elemental technique, yet their combined power was enough to shake the heavens and earth.
Boom!
The beast tide drew closer.
As they neared a certain distance, the white ape and the Trihorn Flame Rhino broke into a full charge, their thunderous roars carrying a murderous aura as they stormed toward the city walls!
“Go!”
The five warriors didn’t back down, transforming into streaks of elemental light and charging forward to meet the beasts head-on!
…
While the beast tide raged outside the eastern city walls, ordinary civilians in the base remained hidden in their homes or underground shelters, quietly waiting for the disaster to pass.
Compared to the raging battle outside, the streets inside the base seemed like another world.
The streets were nearly empty, save for a few hooligans riding expensive spirit energy motorcycles, cheering and racing down the roads.
Su Xiaobai, however, stayed home, uninterested in the commotion.
Until he fully comprehended the three Lesser Transcendent techniques, he had no intention of leaving. But that didn’t mean he wasn’t contributing to the fight.
“I’m part of humanity, after all. If I can help, I will!”
“System, deploy all shadows to the eastern wall to join the battle!”
With one shadow killed by Lin Futian and another in cooldown, Su Xiaobai directed the system to send his remaining six shadows to the battlefield.
So many beasts. Just one random slash will bring loads of rewards!
“Ding! Loot collected: Evil Moon Giant Sandworm Meat x16, Legs x8, Shells x13!”
“Ding! Loot collected: Evil Moon Giant Sandworm Meat x14, Legs x8, Shells x16!”
“Ding! Loot collected: Evil Moon Giant Sandworm Meat x18, Legs x8, Shells x12!”
The system alerts flooded in as soon as the shadows were deployed, almost faster than the eye could follow.
Unlike human warriors who got tired after a few battles and needed to rest and recover their energy, the shadows were tireless killing machines.
With just one command, they fought relentlessly, fearless even in the face of death. Their efficiency far surpassed that of regular warriors!
Moreover, now that the shadows had grown stronger, they could effortlessly kill advanced martial generals.
A mere beast tide is nothing to them!
No fear of death. If they dare to challenge us, we fight back!
Thanks to the upgraded capacity of Su Xiaobai’s Qiankun Space, all the materials collected from the beasts were easily stored.
“Defending humanity, aiding the base, and reaping massive rewards—It’s killing three birds with one stone!”
Grinning, Su Xiaobai retrieved a fresh batch of beast meat from his Qiankun Space and fed it to his companion, Xiao Bai Long.
After days of recovery, the dragon was fully healed. With its regular consumption of A-rank beast meat, it had evolved again, ascending from an advanced warrior to a beginner martial master!
At this pace, it wouldn’t be long before Xiao Bai Long reached the level of a martial general or even rivaled a martial commander!
…
The beast tide battles were never quick to end, especially not this one.
With more beasts and fiercer attacks—plus the S-rank Trihorn Flame Rhino to contend with—the fight was bloodier and more prolonged than ever.
From day to night.
From night to dawn.
For an entire day and night, the deafening sounds of battle never ceased.
Boiling blood soaked the eastern wall.
From its highest point, one could see countless beast corpses strewn across the battlefield outside the eastern gate—a gruesome yet awe-inspiring sight.
Among the corpses were the severed limbs of many brave warriors.
Yet the relentless beasts seemed to have no concept of death, trampling over their fallen comrades as they continued their crazed assault on the walls.
Normally, beast tides formed and attacked human bases in clusters, but they rarely demanded the full attention of the base.
After all, even beasts had basic instincts. If too many died, they would flee in fear of stronger humans.
But these beasts were different. Controlled by some unknown force, they were fearless and insanely aggressive, single-mindedly focused on breaching the human stronghold.
War was merciless.
And in the face of such an invasion, humanity had no choice but to fight back.
For four days straight, the beast tide raged on with no signs of abating.
Elsewhere on the battlefield, the five martial commanders were locked in a fierce battle against the white ape and the Trihorn Flame Rhino.
For four days and nights, both sides sustained injuries but showed no signs of retreat.
“Ding! [Immovable King Sutra] has reached the beginner level!”
“Ding! [Unified Law Codex] has reached the beginner level!”
What do you think?
