Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 264: Chapter 216: Tidal Wave of Thousand-Ton Sea Beasts

Su Yuan returned to the team after exchanging a few words with Peng Hua.

At this moment, Gong Zhouheng, Cheng Mu, and the others, including members from other squads, all looked at Su Yuan differently.

“Su Yuan, you’re really fierce!” Gong Zhouheng couldn’t help but admire him.

“Pretty fierce…” Pei Pengfei’s face looked a bit awkward. Yesterday, he was still mocking others for their cultivation. Today, the other party had shown such formidable strength.

For Star Card Masters, strength determined status. The strength gap between them was apparent. Pei Pengfei wouldn’t dare to say another word!

Cheng Mu thanked him again: “Thank you so much, Su Yuan. Otherwise… I might not be dead, but I would be seriously injured.”

Su Yuan shook his head and laughed: “No worries. We’re all teammates. I’ll help if I can.”

Looking at Cheng Mu’s abdominal wound, Su Yuan did not use Holy Light Baptism to heal him.

Privately, it would be fine. Here, where many were injured, Su Yuan didn’t want others to remember him.

Once they returned to the camp, military and academy healers would naturally handle the treatment.

As they chatted, Liu Congyun walked over.

“I remember your name is Su Yuan, a sophomore this year?” Liu Congyun asked.

The “remember” Liu Congyun mentioned naturally did not refer to the freshman introduction last year. He meant the self-introduction from yesterday.

Su Yuan nodded: “Yes.”

Liu Congyun nodded and smiled: “No wonder you’re a super genius who reached Silver High Stage in a year. The strength you’ve shown isn’t much different from the Gold Level!”

Su Yuan nodded slightly, not saying much.

His efficiency in killing Silver and Bronze Star Beasts compared to the Gold Level did not necessarily mean he was stronger than Gold Level.

If it was just ordinary Gold Levels, that would be fine. But Li Feng and Rong Jintu were both Gold Level from Demon Capital Academy.

After taking care of this batch of sea beasts, Liu Congyun and others talked to the students from Wanzhou Academy and then prepared to return to camp.

Liu Congyun and other captains reported the action results and casualties to Yu Hui. After listening, Yu Hui remained silent for a moment, nodded slightly, and instructed that the injured be sent to the camp’s medical room for treatment. He arranged for the remaining personnel to rest and be on standby in the camp.

In the camp, broadcasts warning of sea beast swarms attacking the island would sound almost every two or three hours. Student teams would then depart from the camp to clear up the scene.

As for whom to send and how many, it’s decided through communication between the academy teachers and military experts based on the sea beast swarms’ conditions.

Nearly half a day later, the 11th squad went to the east side of the island to assist in clearing out a small sea beast swarm of about 200.

However, this group was significantly weaker than the one that came in the morning. Only about 40 were Silver Stage, two were Gold Level, and the rest were Bronze.

The command sent about fifty people to handle this, including the 11th squad from Demon Capital.

Perhaps because this batch of sea beasts was weaker, or maybe because of the previous student deaths, the Demon Capital students were more cautious this time, with no casualties and only two people from the 11-3 squad lightly injured.

Su Yuan still performed exceptionally well, earning 1800 battle merit points.

As for Gong Zhouheng and others, they each earned over 200 points.

In just one day, not only the 11th squad but all six squads from Demon Capital Academy who came to B-3 Island knew there was a talented sophomore in the 11th squad whose efficiency in killing sea beasts surpassed even Gold Level!

In the camp, Yu Hui glanced at the gradually darkening sky and called all resting and on-standby Demon Capital students together.

“Today is the first day our Demon Capital Academy arrived. Except for the 8th squad on duty in the west area, all squads have participated in small sea beast swarm battles. Everyone performed well and adapted quickly.

However, nights are more dangerous than days.

Sea beasts live in the sea where it is dark, so the lightless night environment does not affect them much.

But it greatly affects us. Although we can sense Star Power fluctuations, our vision is still an important way to gather external information.

So, if there’s a sea beast attack at night, it’s even more unfavorable for us.

Sea beasts seem to know this and often attack more frequently at night. Sometimes, there might even be a sea beast swarm with over 1000 beasts!”

A swarm over 1000 beasts!

Everyone, including the Gold Level captains, felt a chill in their hearts.

Generally, for every 100 sea beasts, there were about 1 to 2 Gold Level.

The larger the swarm, the higher the proportion of high-level sea beasts may be.

Yu Hui said: “According to the information I’ve received, B-3 Island has experienced swarms of over 1000 sea beasts four times, all at night, each time resulting in double-digit casualties!

So, be more vigilant at night. Starting at 10 p.m., squads 11 and 28 will be on standby. The rest, take the opportunity to rest.”

For Silver Stage Star Card Masters, even if they didn’t sleep for two or three days, it would still be fine.

However, to stay alert and ready for combat, mental fatigue would set in faster.

If mental fatigue caused a delayed reaction in battle, it could be a fatal outcome!

Therefore, the more intense the environment, the more rest and sleep were needed.

Yu Hui told Liu Congyun and Li Feng: “Be vigilant, and contact me immediately if there’s any unexpected situation.”

“Understood!”

…

Liu Congyun and Li Feng led their team members to stand by for battle, while the others rested.

At night, as Yu Hui said, the frequency of sea beast attacks was indeed higher than during the day.

Fortunately, although the frequency was higher, at most there were 300 sea beasts, and more were scattered ones, all cleared by the students on duty at the coast.

Although several were seriously injured, none died.

Everything went relatively smoothly and quietly through the night.

Early the next morning after shift change, Su Yuan did not continue cultivation but immediately took the time to rest.

But before Su Yuan could rest for long, urgent alarms sounded, and a broadcast echoed repeatedly!

“Warning! Sea beast swarm of over 1500 approaching from the south!”

“Warning! Sea beast swarm of over 1500 approaching from the south!”

“…”

Almost the moment the alarm sounded, Su Yuan, in light sleep, opened his eyes.

“A sea beast swarm of over 1500, arriving during the day instead of at night…”

As Su Yuan pondered, Gong Zhouheng and Cheng Mu quickly woke up.

Hearing the broadcast, Gong Zhouheng only frowned;

But Cheng Mu’s eyes showed a hint of panic.

Gong Zhouheng got out of bed and patted the still-sleeping Pei Pengfei: “Wake up, something’s happening!”

Pei Pengfei was sleeping soundly. He woke up startled after Gong Zhouheng patted him, his face changed, and he jumped out of bed.

“Damn, a sea beast swarm of over 1500. What’s with this extreme right away? And we just changed shifts, barely slept an hour, so unlucky!”

For the B-3 Island’s military and academy students, totaling only four to five hundred, this sea beast swarm was indeed substantial.

However, the high-level combat power on the island was ample. Apart from Yu Hui and two Shining Star Level experts from the military, Wanzhou Academy and Qing Province Academy each sent a teacher to B-3 Island.

There were over twenty Gold Level experts from the various academies and military.

If the situation became urgent, reinforcements from other islands could arrive. No need to panic too much.

The four quickly exited the temporary quarters. Outside, other students were moving briskly, busy arranging things.

“Demon Capital 11th Squad, assemble!”

Soon, Liu Congyun’s voice came from a short distance away. Su Yuan and his team members quickly gathered, with other squads also nearby.

Liu Congyun hurriedly told everyone: “A sea beast swarm of 1500, everyone on B-3 Island is on high alert.

Our Demon Capital, except for the 34th squad on duty in the west area today, will send the remaining five squads to the southern front. Teacher Yu Hui has already gone ahead. Let’s move out!”
