Chapter 350
The woman was even more puzzled now. “Why are there fewer exotic beasts in the city than in the wilderness? That doesn’t make sense.”
“Could it be that they all ran to other frontiers?” The middle-aged man said.
“I don’t’ think so.” The woman shook her head. “The situation at this line is very stable. Nothing unexpected has happened. If they really did run to other battlefields, the higher-ups should have given us orders to go help elsewhere.”
Di di di …
At this moment, the woman’s wristwatch rang.
She picked it up and heard the voice of a young man with a frivolous tone.
“Hong Yu, your team is pretty good. You’re really fast. We’ve been walking in the wilderness for half a day, but we haven’t encountered a single exotic beast …”
Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, the woman cut off the call with an irritated expression.
“It’s the Blue Star Team. They arrived later than us and also stepped into the wilderness …”
At this moment, the handsome young man pondered and said, “Captain, could it be that something happened to the line of defence itself? And the line wasn’t breached at all?”
“The division in charge of this perimeter retreated to the base more than a week ago for repairs. The division commander even died on the spot. How could the line not have been breached here?”
The woman thought for a moment, then ordered.
“We can’t keep guessing like this. Send out a drone to scout the area.”
“Yes, sir.”
The handsome young man immediately controlled the drone to fly to the other side of the city ruins, close to the perimeter.
The few members of the team stared at the screen in their hands, watching the images sent back by the drone.
They saw the drone quickly fly over the city.
Looking down from above, they could see the city’s full view even more clearly.
Within the ruins, it was desolate and quiet. Occasionally, one or two exotic beasts could be sighted. The huge ruins of the city were so clean that it looked like someone had purposely cleansed it. It didn’t look at all like a place where exotic beasts ran rampant after the breach.
The more they watched, the more shocked and confused they became.
Finally, the drone flew to the edge of the battlefield.
A blurry image appeared before their eyes.
The woman’s eyes instantly focused. She quickly said, “Lower the image and zoom in!”
“Okay!”
The handsome young man was about to control the drone to get closer.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past. The image shook violently for a moment, then turned completely black.
“The drone has been shot down!”
The handsome young man stood up with a swoosh. The other members of the team also had ugly expressions. Their eyes flashed with uncertainty.
“Let’s go take a look ourselves.”
“Yes!”
The group quickly moved.
At the same time, at the edge of the perimeter … A skinny man was holding a smoking drone with an alloy arrow stuck in its back. He stomped his feet and cursed.
“Fuck you, Blackie. The reinforcements’ drone was shot down by you!”
In the distance, a dark-faced middle-aged man with an alloy bow shrunk his neck in embarrassment. He scratched his head and said, “I … I thought it was an eagle or something. I thought I could change the taste of that person’s dinner …”
Next to him, a few people busying themselves around a cauldron that had come out of nowhere casually replied, “Alright, alright. It’s just a drone. If it’s shot down, so be it. Since reinforcements can send drones here, they probably won’t be far away. Instead of thinking about this, why don’t we think about what to cook for that person later …”
As he spoke, everyone subconsciously looked in the same direction.
Over there.
Corpses piled up into mountains, blood condensed into a river. A tall and slender figure stood quietly with a long spear in his hand.
Their eyes were filled with reverence and fanaticism that bordered on piety.
The team of four sprinted through the city ruins as if they were flying.
Because they had used the drone to scout before and knew that there was no danger, their speed was extremely fast.
When they were about to reach the edge of the city, the perimeter marked on the map. The four of them began to slow down at the same time.
They gave each other a look that said, “Be careful.” Step by step, they approached the target. Finally, they stepped out of the city, and the field of vision before them widened.
The first thing they saw was a steel perimeter made of abandoned tanks and cars, as well as a few soldiers busying themselves around a cauldron.
The soldiers seemed to have noticed them as well. They waved at them excitedly, their mouths chattering something incomprehensible.
“Fuck, there are still people alive, and … there’s not even a single exotic beast here?”
The bald man with the tattoos on his head had a look of disbelief on his face.
The woman and the others, however, covered their noses at the same time.
“No, the smell of blood is too strong. It’s too strong …”
Even though they were members of the Star Generals Squad who frequented the Catacombs in the wilderness and were used to seeing blood, they still felt like they were choking and could not breathe.
“Let me see!”
The handsome young man randomly found a high spot and jumped up, wanting to get a better look.
However, he did not expect that as soon as he jumped up and cast his gaze toward the battle line in front of him, his entire body froze. His expression was as if he had seen a ghost.
He was shocked … and then stunned.
“What did you see?”
The bald man murmured curiously and jumped up as well.
In the next second, his expression became the same as the handsome young man’s, perhaps even more exaggerated. His mouth was agape.
The woman and the middle-aged man below looked at each other. Both of them jumped up to a high spot with a swoosh and looked forward together.
Their pupils contracted fiercely, and their bodies froze. They stood where they were as if they had been petrified, unable to move an inch.
They saw …
Countless exotic beast corpses were piled up at the front of the defense line a few miles ahead.
Fresh blood soaked the ground, forming large patches of dark red mottled on the ground.
One after another, the limbs of the exotic beasts were piled on top of each other, forming a long blood-red wall made entirely of flesh and blood.
Two long walls extended from far away toward the center, their heights rising continuously.
Near the center, the corpses of exotic beasts were piled up into a mountain.
Two mountains of corpses!
One on the left and one on the right, like a huge door without a roof.
A door of flesh and blood.
In the empty space in the middle of the door.
The setting sun was as red as blood. A figure holding a long spear stood with his back to them, facing the direction of the fissure.
He seemed to have sensed their gazes.
That figure turned slightly, casting a calm gaze from the side of his face.
Boom!
His gaze pierced through the endless distance and landed on the few of them. It was as if lighting had struck from the sky, setting off stormy waves in their hearts.
The woman’s body trembled violently. Her face was pale, and her gaze was dull as she muttered, “My … god …”
What do you think?
