311: Beast tide!

Shancheng City, southwest direction.

In the Wilderness Area, about a thousand kilometers away.

A group of unusually large alien beasts were roaming around. From their constantly probing heads and occasionally sniffing large nostrils, one could guess they seemed to be searching for something.

The enormous eyes of each monster were filled with hideous bloodshot veins, like thousands of crimson earthworms coiling and twisting within them.

A rich, extremely bloody scent permeated the air.

A gentle breeze came, and the bloody scent dispersed with the wind, drifting far, far away.

Not far from there, alien beast corpses lay scattered on the ground.

Broken spines,

Decapitated,

Shattered necks,

Missing all four limbs,

...Every single alien beast had a gruesome death.

Hideous wounds were torn open at their vital points, blood gushing out.

Without exception, all were killed in one blow!

About a hundred kilometers from this location.

In the Wilderness Area, on the flat top of a giant rock, stood a line of figures.

Six men, two women.

Chen Fan looked down at the messy corpses, then at one of the girls in tattered clothes, and asked calmly, "Who are you?"

"And what's going on with these alien beasts?!"

"R-reporting... reporting, Sir."

The girl Chen Fan was staring at trembled uncontrollably, as if she were prey targeted by a natural enemy, fear emanating from her heart.

Her trembling gaze swept over Chen Fan and his group, and her heart grew even more astonished.

These six people, like divine beings descended from the heavens, had slaughtered a full three thousand alien beasts.

Whether powerful or weak, none had survived a second move under their hands.

Especially the young man leading them in the middle, he was like a demon god incarnate.

He barely made a move, relying only on a barrier around him to eliminate all monsters that tried to approach him.

Such immense power was truly astonishing to gods and ghosts alike!

"Reporting to you, Sirs, we also don't know the origin of these beast tides. We only know they appeared out of thin air, and after destroying and eating the population of a city each time, they disperse on their own," another tall but equally disheveled woman said.

"So many monsters appearing out of thin air, you wouldn't be lying to us, would you?" Chen Fan's tone grew a bit heavier.

"We wouldn't dare, how could we dare to do such a thing!" The woman's panicked appearance did not seem like a pretense.

"Hmm, I understand!"

Chen Fan withdrew his gaze and exchanged a glance with Thunder God and the others, a look of realization dawning in his eyes.

No beast tide ever appeared out of thin air!

The only explanation was that these beast tides were all cultivated by the Virtual Universe Corporation for the trial missions of each warrior.

After all, as a trial-level mission, it shouldn't be too low-level.

At this moment, Chen Fan suddenly gave Wang Teng a look.

The latter immediately understood.

Then, he took out two sets of men's clothes from his spatial ring and gave them to the two girls: "Come, put on some clothes first!"

"Thank you, Sir!" x2

The two girls were not delicate types; they took the clothes and changed on the spot, without any shyness.

Chen Fan: "..."

A moment later, after the two girls changed into men's clothes, their demeanor changed instantly.

"Now you can tell us your identities, can't you!" Wang Teng said, his tone incredibly gentle.

These two young women in front of him looked exactly like Earthlings.

Of course, one had to ignore their pointed ears first.

"Reporting to you, Sirs, we are from Shancheng City, members of the Shancheng University student council, and just entered our third year this year."

One of the slightly younger-looking women answered truthfully.

"Then, knowing the Wilderness Area is so dangerous, why did you still come here?" Wang Teng continued to ask.

"Because we detected from satellites that there were quite a few alien beasts gathered in the wilderness outside Shancheng City, so we voluntarily took the mission to investigate. However..."

At this point, the girl's eyes gradually dimmed.

Their group of seven, with two captains (one main, one vice) and two security personnel escorting them, had come to investigate the situation of the alien beast tide.

But they hadn't expected the number of beast tides here to be so vast.

And this time, the beast tide's perception was unusually keen; as soon as they discovered this group of delicious humans, it became a fight to the death.

As a last resort, the two captains, the security personnel, and another male stayed behind to block the beast tide, letting the women retreat first.

Later, Chen Fan and the six others saw the two women desperately fleeing across the wilderness.

"Third-year students, all possessing Planetary Level four or five strength, that's quite impressive!"

Thunder God used Origin Power to project his voice, transmitting it to everyone present.

Chen Fan: "The level of this trial world is far above Earth's. After all, you can tell a thing or two from the number of these Universe Rank or even Territory Lord Rank monsters."

Ma Liang rubbed his hands, somewhat excitedly saying, "Does this mean we're about to have a big battle?"

Xue Zhan: "Let's be careful with everything. Don't be so eager."

Everyone nodded in unison: "Mm!"

"Then you two lead the way; we'll go to Shancheng City first."

Chen Fan said calmly.

Their mission here was to successfully resist ten beast tides and ensure a certain number of cities survived.

Without beast tides, the mission couldn't even begin.

Suddenly—

Chen Fan looked up at the increasingly thick, accumulating dark clouds in the sky, his eyes somewhat solemn.

These seemed a bit off.

Crack!!

At this moment, at Chen Fan's eleven o'clock position to his left, a crisp cracking sound rang out.

Everyone looked over in unison.

They saw the space there peeling off in layers like wall plaster.

In a short while, a man-high hole had shattered into a giant hundred-meter void.

"Alien beasts are coming again!" The two girls stared blankly at this scene, their eyes filled with terror.

They had encountered these holes before, and then been surrounded by alien beasts.

Meeting them again now, they were naturally extremely terrified.

"Don't be afraid, we're here!" Wang Teng extended his hands, gently comforting the two girls.

"Ancient Chaos Spear Art, Annihilation!!"

As Wang Teng let out a low roar, a golden spear, about three meters long, floated in mid-air above his head, its aura awe-inspiring.

"Go!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, a golden stream of light tore through space, instantly piercing into the void.

Pfft!!

Accompanied by a sound like tearing silk, blood rained down in the vast space, and a bloody scent quickly permeated the air.

Roar!!

Roar, roar, roar!!

Screams of agony rang out one after another.

Wang Teng's spear had pierced through who knows how many alien beast corpses.

"Hmm!?"

"Something's wrong, retreat quickly!!"

Suddenly—

Wang Teng's expression changed abruptly, as if he were facing a formidable enemy.

"What's wrong!?"

Chen Fan asked in confusion.

"Countless monsters, Fan-ge, let's retreat first!"

"Okay, retreat first." x7.

Then, without any hesitation, the group quickly evacuated the scene.

Behind them, that void continued to expand, and expand... countless hideous and terrifying alien beasts poured out of it.

Soon, another dense beast tide appeared in the center of the Wilderness Area.

Hiss!!

Ma Liang merely glanced back and couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle.

Millions of small hills, as it were, came into view, captivating the soul.

The alien beast tide was terrifying to such an extent!!
