39: Level 4, Bone Spur Octopus

It could be said that in the month he had been there, only this battle truly showed him the cruelty of the battlefield.

Take this company, for example; 30% of its men had already died, and many couldn't even find their bodies.

Taking a breath, Ye Liuyun was about to call Zhao Donglai to ask which area they were in when a familiar voice sounded in his earpiece.

“Reporting to Commander, Defense Zone 792 has fallen. A Rank Four Elementary Vicious Beast has appeared. Requesting… backup!”

The intermittent voice came through, and Ye Liuyun immediately flashed and burst forward. Defense Zone 792 was Xiao Chen’s defense zone, and it was a Rank Four!

“Commander, I’m closer, I’ll go support first.”

Ye Liuyun said, quickening his pace. The disaster a Rank Four Vicious Beast could bring to a company was devastating. He couldn’t worry about anything else now; those soldiers were his comrades.

“Ye Liuyun, you are not allowed to go! Stay where you are. I’ll rush over after my battle here is finished!” Zhao Donglai shouted.

He was currently being held back by a Rank Three Vicious Beast, and Xu Feng and Ming Xingguo had also gone to support elsewhere.

“Don’t worry, Commander, I’ll stall for a bit. If it’s really impossible, I’ll retreat!”

No sooner had Ye Liuyun finished speaking than a roar came through the earpiece.

“You’re disobeying orders, Ye Liuyun, you…”

Ye Liuyun’s brow lifted as he took off his earpiece. His voice was quite loud.

In this situation, if he didn’t go, the men of Company 95 definitely wouldn’t be able to hold them off.

Even if he couldn't kill the opponent, he could hold them off for a while.

With Ye Liuyun’s speed, he quickly traversed to Defense Zone 792. Upon entering the defense zone, Ye Liuyun’s steps abruptly stopped, his mind boomed, and he stared blankly at the tragic scene before him.

As his gaze swept over, the ground of the position was covered in bodies. Xiao Chen was pinned to a side iron plate by a Bone-Spike Source Octopus.

After hearing the commotion, he opened his gradually blurring eyes, forcing himself to turn his head, and when he saw it was Ye Liuyun.

His lips moved slightly, “Go… go.”

Blood dripped from his toes onto the ground, the sound exceptionally piercing!

The Vicious Beasts were currently devouring the bodies, among them a pile of wriggling creatures brutally coiling around a soldier and chewing him.

A Rank Four Elementary Vicious Beast, the Bone-Spike Source Octopus.

Its entangled tentacles were covered in bone-spikes.

Gradually, Ye Liuyun’s eyes became bloodshot, his pupils completely turning crimson.

These soldiers had been with him for a month; he could call many of them by name.

Rage surged through his mind. Since Ye Liuyun’s Transmigration, he had never been this angry.

“Damn you!”

His roar of fury awakened the Vicious Beasts that were feeding.

Emotionless eyes instantly enveloped Ye Liuyun!

“Squeak, squeak, squeak—”

As the strange cry of the Bone-Spike Source Octopus sounded, the surrounding Vicious Beasts, as if receiving an order, all bared their bloody teeth and charged at Ye Liuyun.

“I want you to be buried with them!”

As the last word was roared out, Ye Liuyun’s blood-red eyes burned with raging fury, and he rushed forward in a single stride.

Anger had completely clouded his mind. At this moment, he had only one thought.

Kill!

The Wilderness Wolf at the very front tore with its gaping maw, seemingly wanting to devour this human in one bite.

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out. The Wilderness Wolf was torn apart starting from its mouth, split in two.

Blood dripped down Ye Liuyun’s fingers.

“Roar!”

Ye Liuyun let out a roar, and a sinister wind swept through.

The surrounding Vicious Beasts immediately swarmed him, engulfing him.

Pfft!

Bang!

Rip!

Puffs of blood mist accompanied by shattered bodies fell to the ground.

The scent of blood lingering in his nostrils constantly stimulated Ye Liuyun. His humanity gradually extinguished, and his bestiality awakened.

Sensory pain and fatigue were swept away.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun even forgot to increase his Qi and blood or raise his Rank by relying on beast points.

There was only one thought in his mind.

Tear them apart!

A hint of human-like confusion faintly appeared in the Bone-Spike Source Octopus’s pupils. It sensed the aura of its own kind from Ye Liuyun.

This puzzled it greatly. For this curiosity, its solution was to capture Ye Liuyun, disembowel him, and then examine his internal structure.

Just as Ye Liuyun was slaughtering the Vicious Beasts, its tentacles slowly propped up, its colossal body blocking the light, casting darkness. As it fully stood up, its body, over thirteen meters tall, was completely revealed.

The wriggling tentacles and flesh could awaken fear from the depths of one’s Soul.

The dense bone-spikes made one’s scalp tingle… Lu Province.

Quancheng.

The night sky was overcast, making people feel uncomfortable.

Ning Nanguo sat in the living room, looking at the latest news.

Bang.

The door was violently pushed open, and Secretary Liu rushed in hurriedly, his face filled with anxiety.

“Commander, something bad has happened—”

“Calm down and speak. What’s all the fuss? You’ve been with me for so many years and you’re still so clumsy,” Ning Nanguo said with displeasure.

After so many years with him, he was still like this, making a big fuss when something happened.

“No, Commander, an A-Rank Beast Tide appeared in the Eastern Theater Command today, and Commander Liu has already entered the fray!”

“What—”

Ning Nanguo shot up from his seat.

“The news is absolutely true, Commander, and…”

“And what? Hurry up and tell me!”

Secretary Liu looked up at Ning Nanguo, “And Liuyun has lost contact…”

“You—why didn’t you tell me sooner? Quickly arrange a special plane for me. I’m going to the Eastern Front.” Ning Nanguo tore off his coat, his fingers moving slightly, and a battle suit directly covered his body.

“Commander, as a provincial Commander, you need to report your departure.”

“Report his grandmother’s leg! I finally got a son, and he’s more important than me. Hurry up and arrange it for me. At worst, I’ll just quit this official position!”

Ning Nanguo walked out of the villa without looking back.

Ye Liuyun was a heaven-sent son to him; there could be no mishaps.

This was not only a personal matter but also a matter of public interest. If such a seed were to die prematurely, the loss to Great Xia would be too great.

Thinking of this, Ning Nanguo was filled with regret.

Ye Liuyun was sent to the battlefield by his own hands. If something truly happened to him, he… Secretary Liu’s cold sweat kept pouring out. He knew that telling Ning Nanguo this news would definitely cause an uproar, but not telling him was even worse!

After getting into the car, they rushed to the airport without stopping.

Ning Nanguo had his own special airship. From here to the Eastern Front, at full speed, it would only take about an hour and a half.

Fortunately, it was already late at night, and there were almost no cars on the road, so the driver arrived at the airport at the fastest speed.

Ning Nanguo got out of the car and quickly walked into the airship.

“To the Eastern Front, quickly!”

Secretary Liu sat in the back seat and quickly reported for approval.

A provincial dignitary suddenly going to the front line, if not reported, how would the officials think?

Secretary Liu’s fingers flew, explaining the ins and outs and the cause and effect clearly.

At the moment they left Lu Province, the approval was granted.

Secretary Liu breathed a sigh of relief.

Ning Nanguo was reckless, but as his subordinate, he couldn’t not consider these things.

Now, he only hoped that Ye Liuyun was alright.

If something really happened, Ning Nanguo would probably go crazy… Northern Theater Command.
