38: Quick improvement

“Killed a peak High-level Beast General, physique +50!”

A clear prompt appeared in Chen Fan’s mind.

He was stunned at first, then gradually became ecstatic.

A sudden surge of immense power coursed through his veins, like rivers flowing into the sea, converging into his limbs and bones.

Feeling the endless power within him, Chen Fan immediately formed a conjecture.

Killing monsters not only provided him with a continuous stream of physique points, but the stronger the monster he killed, the greater the boost.

Wouldn't this mean he could become infinitely stronger?

Thinking of this, Chen Fan gradually calmed down from his ecstasy.

Now was not the time to celebrate.

Looking up, the surrounding rat tide continued its fearless charge.

As long as the Rat General lived, the rat soldiers would not stop.

On the battlefield, the great war intensified into a heated state.

Even with the support of nearly a thousand new martial artists, it only temporarily alleviated the pressure on the War Dragon Group; the fundamental crisis had not been eradicated.

The reason was simple:

The sheer number of monsters was too immense.

Even with these martial artist reinforcements, they still couldn't reverse the disadvantage.

Everywhere Chen Fan looked, there was a dense, dark rat tide.

More crucially, there were several large creatures.

Roughly looking, there were still four or five High-level Beast Generals as powerful as the one he had just killed.

The biggest threat had not been eliminated!

The presence of these High-level Beast Generals, combined with millions of rat tides, still posed a huge threat to the human side.

Since that was the case, then he would continue to charge forward!

Chen Fan pondered silently, wanting to do his best to resist the monsters.

With his continuous stamina boosts and his golden finger that grew stronger with each battle, he could easily cut through the monster horde seven times in and out.

Boom!!

Chen Fan stomped his foot fiercely, and his entire body shot towards the densest part of the monster horde like a cannonball—the battle group where the Dragon Breath Squad was located.

The Dragon Breath Squad had now become a thorn in the side of the beast tide, something they desperately wanted to remove completely.

Unfortunately, the Dragon Breath Squad's formidable combat power and unyielding fighting spirit had bravely resisted at the front of the beast tide for nearly two hours.

Not to mention the powerful firepower from the drones overhead, which fired without regard for ammunition loss.

The Dragon Breath Squad members were already martial artists with excellent combat power and experience.

Now, the Dragon Breath Squad had a new member—Chen Fan.

Whoosh!!

In the battlefield, an artificial gale swept through.

The wind howled, and dust flew everywhere!

Chen Fan’s figure transformed into an afterimage, shooting towards the monsters ahead.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!!

Azure blue flames burst forth,

His Battle Blade shone, directly taking the lives of the monsters.

Crack!!

A crisp snapping sound rang out, and another High-level Beast General was decapitated, becoming a soul claimed by Chen Fan’s blade.

Compared to the High-level Beast General at its peak just now, this Black Fang Rat General that was killed was much, much weaker.

“Killed a High-level Beast General, physique +20.”

Another faint, tingling electric current spread throughout his body, and Chen Fan clearly felt his strength increase a little.

Since killing enemies could make him infinitely stronger, then he would continue to charge!

...“What?!”

“This guy has such formidable combat power and flexible movement!”

“It's incredible; such a young fellow actually erupted with such terrifying battle intent, truly remarkable…”

Some martial artists who accidentally witnessed Chen Fan killing the High-level Beast General were immediately surprised and delighted.

One must know that most martial artists nowadays are of low rank.

“This guy”

Seeing a group of monsters besieging a severely wounded member of the Dragon Breath Squad not far away, Chen Fan no longer hesitated and rushed to provide support.

His two Battle Blades swung with the momentum of a meat grinder.

In just ten seconds, Chen Fan swept away the dense monsters with lightning speed.

“Killed thirty Beast Soldier monsters, physique +3.”

Ten soldier-level monsters for only one physique point, Chen Fan secretly grumbled about his golden finger being so stingy.

If you don't give a little more physique bonus, do you believe I won't kill monsters anymore?!

Although Chen Fan thought this in his heart, his body succumbed to the “it smells so good” principle.

As Chen Fan swung his Battle Blade, he took down batch after batch of low-level monsters.

In front of Chen Fan, a martial artist with the strength of a High-level General, soldier-level monsters and even Beast General-level Blackfang Rats were simply not enough to contend with.

Pfft!

Pfft!

Accompanied by crisp snapping sounds, Chen Fan’s every strike took down a monster.

Along the way, he left behind corpse after corpse of monsters, saving soldier after soldier of the War Dragon Group who were on the brink of death.

Fighting until now, all the soldiers of the War Dragon Group were exhausted, relying on their last stubborn will to resist the monsters.

If not for this, the entire War Dragon Group would have long since been defeated and become prey for the numerous rat monsters.

Only then did Chen Fan understand the importance of a top-tier combatant to the overall battlefield situation.

If it weren't for Chen Fan, a martial artist whose combat power far exceeded that of an ordinary War General, supporting them, one could imagine how many soldiers the War Dragon Group's position would have sacrificed.

Blood flowed like a pond, soaking the surrounding land in crimson, truly resembling a fiery hell.

At the same time, Chen Fan also gained a large number of physique points, thereby continuously enhancing the strength of his physical body.

His strength, agility, and speed all received significant improvements.

But for Chen Fan, this was just the beginning.

This massive monster horde had become a prime location for Chen Fan to earn achievement points.

With two Battle Blades in hand, Chen Fan seemed to transform into an Asura returned from hell, mercilessly reaping the rat monsters along the way.

“Killed thirty Beast Soldiers, physique +2.”

“Killed a Mid-level Beast General, physique +10.”

“Killed a Low-level Beast General, physique +3.”

“…”

As he continued to kill monsters, Chen Fan was surprised to find that the physique points he gained were slowly decreasing.

It was as if the stronger his physique became, the less growth he received from killing low-level monsters.

A rising tide lifts all boats!

Understanding this principle, Chen Fan changed his strategy, directly focusing his attention on the large Beast General-level Blackfang Rats.

The great battle continued.

In this large-scale battle against the Level 3 rat tide, the War Dragon Group had already lost a quarter of its strength, with over a thousand soldiers buried here.

Even the nearly thousand martial artists who went to support the War Dragon Group had lost a fifth, and the casualty rate was still rapidly increasing.

The war between humans and monsters was always filled with bloodshed and cruelty; no martial artist could remain aloof.

Slaughter filled the entire battlefield, and the blood of humans and monsters almost covered this desolate plain.

Drip, drip!

Crimson blood dripped from Chen Fan’s Battle Blade.

Roar!

Roar!

The monster charge became increasingly frenzied, amidst low, terrifying roars... biting, pouncing, encircling—several attacks came in continuous succession.

But each time, Chen Fan handled it calmly; his body's flexibility far exceeded that of an ordinary War General-level martial artist.

Even amidst numerous monster hordes, he still moved with ease.

Only when encountering a more troublesome Beast General-level monster might it take him more than half a minute.

Chen Fan advanced irresistibly, quickly joining the Dragon Breath Squad to jointly resist the beast tide.

As he continuously killed monsters, Chen Fan's physique and strength were also rapidly increasing little by little…
