59: Comeback!

When Hong announced this news, everyone was shocked.

These God of War martial artists were stunned after hearing it.

It felt as if their brains had instantly crashed.

After a long while, they slowly reacted.

Hiss!!

Hiss!!

...Gasps of cold air echoed in the conference room.

They had noticed earlier that the beast horde seemed a bit off, but they didn't know why.

But now, Hong's words awakened them, giving them sudden clarity.

If this speculation were true, would it mean there was a larger conspiracy behind these monsters?

At this thought, a chill slowly crept up the spines of the martial artists, making them shiver.

In an instant, the entire meeting fell into an absolute silence.

A deathly quiet spread, soundlessly... Some God of War martial artists showed grave expressions, then spoke: "Are these monsters planning to make a comeback??"

"Absolutely not. Their King-level Monsters have all been slain. How much trouble can these leaderless monsters cause?"

A God of War immediately retorted.

In everyone's understanding, a beast horde without King-level Monster leadership was just a disorganized mess, incapable of mounting an effective attack.

As soon as this question was raised, the entire meeting immediately became boisterous.

The God of War martial artists were divided into two factions, each holding their own opinions.

Only Thunder God remained silent, his brows tightly furrowed, seemingly deep in thought.

After a long while, Thunder God suddenly slapped his bald head, directly ending the argument.

"Alright, stop talking, listen to my analysis."

As soon as Thunder God spoke, everyone immediately fell silent.

Everyone was waiting for his words, their expressions very serious.

After all, Thunder God and Hong were not only the supreme commanders of this battle but also their pillars of stability.

Therefore, every word from Thunder God was worth their careful attention.

"This battle, whether it was the retreat of the beast horde or the King-level Monsters' fight to the death, all revealed a mysteriously strange aura."

"Therefore, we must prepare for this situation in advance, because the intelligence of rainforest monsters absolutely cannot be judged by ordinary monsters."

"This tropical rainforest has existed since ancient times. We are not very clear how many terrifying existences were born from the rr virus, so we must raise our vigilance."

As Thunder God spoke, everyone present exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

Even Hong nodded, concurring with Thunder God's words.

Then, Thunder God continued:

"Although we slew twelve King-level Monsters this time, all participating martial artists achieved great results."

"But we also permanently lost two brothers, Slav and Ye Fan, as well as nearly three hundred Warrior Generals.

This price is truly too great!"

After speaking, Thunder God bowed his head slightly, a flicker of remembrance flashing in his eyes.

Even Hong involuntarily lowered his eyes.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the conference room instantly became silent.

Speaking of the deaths of Ye Fan and Slav, the two Planetary Level martial artists, everyone's faces were filled with sorrow.

The loss of two super combatants at once was too great a blow to this allied army.

Even slaying twelve King-level Monsters did not soothe the blow that the loss of these two super combatants brought to everyone.

After all, since the rr virus raged, the God of War martial artists present had more or less received guidance from Slav and Ye Fan.

For them, Slav and Ye Fan were both teachers and friends.

Beep beep beep!!!

As the entire conference room fell into silence, a red message appeared on the communication watches of all God of War martial artists present, including Thunder God and Hong.

And this message had only two lines of text—

"Enemy attack!!"

"The beast horde is returning, with predicted numbers far exceeding before, and led by King-level Monsters!!"

"Enemy attack!!"

"The beast horde is returning, with predicted numbers far exceeding before, and led by King-level Monsters!!"

"Enemy attack!!"

"The beast horde is returning, with predicted numbers far exceeding before, and led by King-level Monsters!!"

...The entire message was repeated three times on the God of War watches.

Following the message was a video clip.

In the footage, a vast, dark mass of monsters swarmed towards the defensive position.

Their numbers were several times greater than the first beast horde.

Especially those terrifying, towering figures in the distance.

Without exception, they were all King-level Monsters.

Even through the screen, a palpable sense of oppression could be felt.

Whoosh!!

"Everyone, prepare to fight again."

Without the slightest hesitation, Hong drew the long spear beside him, gripping it tightly.

"These annoying monsters don't seem to have given up on this place, so let's give them another head-on blow."

Clang clang!!!

As Thunder God's voice fell, he was the first to draw his blade.

One person, two blades, emanating chilling killing intent.

Immediately after, the sound of drawing blades echoed in the conference room.

All the martial artists present drew their blades.

No one hesitated!!

For a moment, the sorrowful and somber atmosphere in the entire conference room, caused by the deaths of Slav and Ye Fan, was swept away.

Everyone was filled with high fighting spirit, erupting with a terrifying morale far exceeding before.

As the pinnacle of humanity, these God of War martial artists naturally knew that the meaning of their existence was not only to resist monsters.

They were also the hope and example for other martial artists and humanity.

If even they felt pessimistic and retreated in the face of monsters, the hope for all of humanity would likely become very slim.

"Let's go, let's avenge Ye Fan and Slav!"

"If we can repel these beast hordes once, then we can repel them a second time, a third time!!"

"Kill... kill all these hateful monsters!!"

"..."

In an instant, the entire conference room became fervent with passion.

All the God of War martial artists were brimming with fighting spirit, determined to avenge Slav and Ye Fan, the two Planetary Level martial artists.

At this moment, Thunder God and Hong exchanged glances, seeing relief and praise in each other's eyes.

But in the blink of an eye, the smiles in Thunder God's eyes receded, replaced by deep worry.

This return of the beast horde was purely ill-intentioned, likely harboring sinister motives.

Having dealt with monsters for so many years, Hong and Thunder God had long understood the habits of these monsters.

When they launched another attack, the offensive posture would only be stronger, not weaker, than the first beast horde!!!

"Issue the order: everyone to Level One alert, full defense against the beast horde!!!"

With the order given, Thunder God still looked somewhat worried. He looked at Hong, his lips moving slightly—

"Call for reinforcements."

"Mm."

Hong nodded lightly, then sent a message on his communication watch—

"Yao Rao, now, in the name of the Dojo of Limits and the Thunder Martial Hall, immediately send messages to the Five Great Powers, the HR Alliance, and the Mercenary Alliance worldwide, requesting reinforcements. The sooner, the better."

"Especially China, we urgently need their assistance."

"The battle at the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins concerns the future of all humanity; we cannot fail!!"

A series of messages were quickly sent.

Immediately after, Hong gripped his long spear and walked side-by-side with Thunder God, stepping out of the temporary conference room first.

Behind them followed a mighty group of God of War martial artists.

At this moment, all the martial artists exuded a spirit of—"When adversaries meet on a narrow path, the brave one wins!!!"
