125: Chapter 125 Who exactly is the food?!

According to the system's original game rules, the SSS-grade Purgatory Dragonspine Track is an escape track filled with despair and the scent of death.

On this track, players must not only face the endless pursuit of the invincible Abyss Lord from behind.

In front of the track, there are millions of Lizard-kin and Dragon-kin monsters entrenched.

They act as roadblocks, crazily blocking and delaying the players' escape speed.

Surrounded in front and pursued from behind.

At the current stage of the game, this track has a mortality rate as high as 99%, making it a true meat grinder.

However.

At this moment, the game rules for the Purgatory Dragonspine Track have been completely broken.

The reason is simple.

The Abyss Lord, who was supposed to be on a killing spree and bring endless pressure to the players, had its wings blown off by Lu Yuan's cannon and fled back to its abyss home with its tail between its legs.

With the big boss gone, how is this escape game supposed to be played?

The Red Wolf Guild gave the answer with their actions.

Escape track?

It doesn't exist.

The 200,000-strong Red Wolf Army forcibly turned this deadly track, filled with the scent of death, into a large-scale resource exploration track!

"Those in front! Don't drive so fast! There is a metal vein under this lava!"

"Logistics Team! Hurry up and set up the mining machines! Dig, dig, dig!"

The massive convoy advanced along the track at an infuriatingly snail-like pace.

The 200,000 people were like mice that had fallen into a rice jar.

They mined as they went.

They were pleasantly surprised to find that this SSS-grade track was simply an unexplored treasure map, with an eye-watering amount of various rare ores!

Of course, besides mining, they had an even more important recreational activity.

That was hunting.

Chef Lao Ma identified that the dragon meat of Bahamut was SSS-grade food, and eating it could permanently increase attributes.

The meat from the half-severed dragon claws and dragon wings had already been divided up, and the appetite of the Red Wolf Army had been thoroughly whetted.

If they couldn't eat the Abyss Lord, surely eating some small fry from the Dragon-kin tribe would satisfy their cravings, right?

Thus, those monsters that were originally responsible for blocking the players suffered a terrible fate.

"Brothers! We found a group of Hellfire Lizards ahead! About five hundred of them!"

"Charge! Roasted lizard tail is great for health!"

"Don't use heavy artillery! Don't use incendiary bombs! The meat will be scorched, how can we eat it then!"

"Draw your knives! Charge in for hand-to-hand combat! Catch them alive!"

...

In a dark red volcanic rock forest.

A group of massive, usually extremely ferocious Dragon-kin monsters were currently huddled in the deepest part of a rock cave like a flock of frightened little quail.

They listened to the excited, strange cries coming from all over the mountains and plains outside, so scared that their scales were trembling.

The leading high-level Dragon-kin Commander even wiped away tears in grievance.

"Wuwuwu... Dragon King, where exactly did you run off to?!"

"If you don't come back, your subordinates are going to be eaten to extinction by this group of crazy humans!"

The Dragon-kin Commander looked outside through the cracks in the cave.

Hundreds of humans in red clothes were drooling, carrying huge iron pots and cumin powder, searching for their whereabouts with green lights in their eyes.

This scene was too horrifying.

The Dragon-kin Commander was breaking down inside.

What kind of creatures are these?

We are monsters!

We are man-eating monsters!

Who is actually the food now?!!

This group of Dragon-kin monsters fell into deep despair.

The Dragon King they were longing for and hoping would save them was currently hiding in the Volcanic Dragon Lair in the deepest part of the abyss.

"Achoo—!"

The severely injured and dying Inferno Demon Dragon Bahamut lay beside a scorching volcanic magma pool, sneezing for no apparent reason.

Its broken body shrank suddenly, and it subconsciously moved deeper into the dragon lair.

Recalling that terrifying beam of light, intertwined with black and white, that seemed capable of annihilating everything.

Bahamut's only remaining vertical pupil was filled with lingering fear.

Go save the subordinates?

Don't joke around.

It never wanted to see that red tank again in its life.

It was too scary for a dragon!

...

In the blink of an eye, the Red Wolf Guild's convoy had already advanced more than two thousand kilometers on the Purgatory Dragonspine Track.

This was a sweep that could be described as locusts crossing the border.

The 200,000-strong Red Wolf Army ate and mined as they went.

The precious fire ores and blood crystals that originally covered both sides of the track had now been completely mined by members of the Collection Group.

And even more miserable were the natives of this track.

The million monsters that the system had originally placed on this escape track were forcibly treated as ingredients for a buffet by the Red Wolf Guild.

"Lao Ma! Not enough cumin! Bring two more trucks over!"

"The hind leg meat of this fire lizard is really chewy, but it gets stuck in the teeth. Brothers, cut it thinner when you slice it!"

In the center of the track, Lao Ma and the chef team set up hundreds of big black pots.

The mined iron ore was made into skewers, and the boiling magma was directly diverted to serve as a natural smokeless grill.

The Red Wolf Army was eating until their mouths were oily, in full swing.

Even more absurdly, as large amounts of magic dragon meat and Dragon-kin monsters were swallowed into their stomachs.

Above the heads of the 200,000 players present, enviable golden prompts began to float up crazily.

[Constitution +5!]

[Strength +3!]

[Agility +2!]

[Spirit +5!]

[Consumed monster meat, Abyss Resistance +1!]

The ordinary players, who had originally relied on equipment and firepower to crush everything, were undergoing a earth-shattering qualitative change in their physical fitness under the nourishment of this "Abyss Feast"!

As cold and aloof as Xia Li was, she had completely let go of the burden of being the big sister of the White Hunt Group at this moment.

She held a large handful of lizard meat skewers, grilled until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, eating with a flushed face, while happily watching her own crazily rising attribute panel.

"So delicious... No wonder your guild is so strong."

Xia Li mumbled indistinctly, and casually snatched another piece of succulent roasted meat from Lu Yuan's plate.

However...

As happy as the Red Wolf Army was eating, the monsters in the second half of the track were just as desperate.

Three thousand kilometers away.

The Dragon-kin leaders and demon guards who were supposed to be guarding each checkpoint were all shivering.

Through the unique spiritual connection between abyss species, they had clearly heard the screams of their compatriots in the first half.

"Run! Those two-legged beasts eat monsters without spitting out the bones!"

"They even took the eggs to fry! Run!"

This terrifying warning spread crazily in the monster circle.

Finally, the monsters in the second half of the track had a complete mental breakdown.

Forget guarding the checkpoints!

Forget the system tasks!

What's the point of guarding if you're dead!

Countless monsters, originally ferocious and bloodthirsty, packed up and ran away overnight.

They took their families and climbed over the track fences, preferring to risk being burned to death by jumping into the outer magma sea to escape, rather than staying on the track for one more second.

Thus, when Lu Yuan led the well-fed convoy to continue moving forward.

They were depressed to find.

The three thousand kilometers of track ahead were empty; not even a hair of a monster could be seen.

"Boss, there are no monsters ahead, and the brothers haven't eaten their fill yet." Lin Zihao wiped the oil stains from the corner of his mouth, still wanting more.

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, just about to order the Reconnaissance Group to search the surrounding mountains.

Several piercing alarms sounded out of thin air!

"Beep—beep—beep—!"

The sky over the entire Purgatory Dragonspine Track was suddenly shrouded in a blinding blood-red light.

The system's highest-level alarm sound blasted wildly in every player's ear.

The originally cold and ruthless system voice now carried a hint of obvious electrical static, as if the computing core was suffering unimaginable torture.

[Warning! The ecology of the Purgatory Dragonspine Track has been destructively damaged!]

[Warning! The survival rate of native species on the track has fallen below 0.01%; Hellfire Lizards and Lava Dragon-kin have fallen into an extremely endangered state!]

[Severe Warning! Underlying resources of the track are being plundered; system map repair computing power is under severe load!]

Looking at the huge red warnings popping up one after another in the sky.

The 200,000-strong Red Wolf Army was collectively stunned.

They stared at each other with wide eyes, still holding the unfinished roasted meat in their hands.

"This... did the system break down?" Wang Jian scratched his head, looking completely innocent.

Before everyone could react.

The huge red warning panel in the sky suddenly flickered.

Immediately after.

Less than a hundred meters directly in front of the Red Wolf convoy, space twisted violently.

A finish line portal, hundreds of meters high and flashing with seven-colored divine light, descended without warning, crashing directly in front of Lu Yuan's tank!

According to the original rules, this finish line gate would only appear after running five thousand kilometers and experiencing nine deaths and one life of slaughter.

But now, the system didn't even care how much of the race was left.

It slapped the finish line gate directly in their faces!

Above that huge seven-colored portal, there were no longer the oppressive clearance test prompts of the past.

Replacing them were a few eye-catching, large characters flashing with golden light, seemingly carrying a hint of begging:

[Congratulations on clearing the level!]

[I beg you, please hurry in!!!]
