50: Are we being redundant?

"This can't go on."

Sweat broke out on Li Feng's forehead.

He didn't expect to encounter such a troublesome enemy right after entering.

"Student Bai Ye, you..."

Li Feng was about to tell Student Bai Ye to find an opportunity to attack the Mechanical Sentries, but he found that Student Bai Ye had vanished at some point.

He was startled and sharply turned his head.

He saw Student Bai Ye's figure already appearing at the edge of the battlefield.

"All Support Personnel, fall back. Leave these Tin Cans to me."

"What?"

Before Li Feng could react, Student Bai Ye had already moved.

He was like a fierce tiger charging into a flock of sheep, directly rushing into the steel torrent formed by the Mechanical Sentries.

"Danger!"

Wang Qian subconsciously shouted, but quickly realized that Student Bai Ye's physical qualities seemed even more terrifying than his beast pet.

The idea of a Beast Tamer commanding beast pets to fight was too deeply ingrained; it was unrealistic to expect them to change their mindset immediately.

But seeing Student Bai Ye go so deep into enemy territory, their hearts couldn't help but leap to their throats.

Student Bai Ye faced a Mechanical Sentry that lunged at him, brandishing its sharp metal claws, neither dodging nor evading, simply throwing a punch.

Bang!

The Mechanical Sentry's hard metal shell was like paper under Student Bai Ye's fist, directly blown to pieces.

Parts and wires flew everywhere.

"Gulp!"

The Support Team couldn't help but swallow their saliva. So brutal, so powerful!

"This... is this power a human can possess?"

Zhao Dezhu's camera almost fell to the ground.

Student Bai Ye had no time to mind their shock.

After dispatching a Mechanical Sentry with one punch, he quickly moved his feet, weaving through the Mechanical Spider swarm.

Every punch he threw inevitably shattered a Mechanical Sentry into pieces.

The sunlight in this Secret Realm was too weak, so Student Bai Ye could only use the accumulated sunlight within his body for Photosynthesis.

But a mere Intermediate Extraordinary Level didn't even require him to use his Talent!

The Mechanical Sentries, which seemed indestructible in front of six Transcendent Limit beast pets, were as fragile as a pile of aluminum cans in front of Student Bai Ye.

"One punch, one little spider."

Student Bai Ye muttered, feeling incredibly exhilarated.

Since his strength had risen to Elite Rank, he hadn't truly gone all out in a fight yet.

"Captain, what should we do now?"

Zhou Li swallowed, asking blankly.

"Have the beast pets return and protect ourselves."

Li Feng's lips felt dry: "And cheer for Student Bai Ye."

The six scarred beast pets returned to their masters' sides.

In less than five minutes, over thirty Mechanical Sentries were completely cleared out by Student Bai Ye alone.

The entire battlefield was left with nothing but metal wreckage and a pungent burnt smell.

Student Bai Ye casually brushed off the mechanical debris clinging to his knuckles.

Mechanical creations were clean; if it were Demonic Beasts from other Secret Realms, he would already be covered in blood by now.

While that wouldn't affect his movements, it would still be quite disgusting.

He walked up to Li Feng and the others, a look of not having fought enough still on his face.

"Phew, warm-up over."

Warm... warm-up?

Li Feng's Adam's apple bobbed, unable to utter a single word.

A strong sense of absurdity welled up in his heart.

Was their small team... somewhat superfluous?

At Student Bai Ye's speed, he could probably clear this Secret Realm in less than a day; their presence would only slow him down.

"Captain... did we get our mission wrong?"

Zhao Dezhu, holding his camera, stumbled over his words.

Li Feng ignored him, just staring at Student Bai Ye's back, his fists clenched tightly.

After a long while, he squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth.

"Do your job. We are support."

With Student Bai Ye, this "Human Vicious Beast," leading the way, the subsequent journey was unbelievably smooth.

Any Mechanical Sentry that emerged from the ruins was torn into pieces before it could even sound an alarm.

Their mission had changed from "fully assisting the Main Attacker in exploring the Secret Realm" to "following behind the Main Attacker, preventing themselves from falling behind, and always being ready to cheer him on."

Whenever they encountered an attack from Mechanical Sentries, before they could even react, Student Bai Ye had already rushed forward like a gust of wind.

Then came a series of "crackle-bang" sounds of metal shattering.

By the time they came to their senses, the battle was already over.

Finally, only Student Bai Ye stood safely on the ground, looking regretfully at the scattered metal fragments.

How great it would be if he could take this scrap metal out and sell it for money.

Well, he was just joking. What they should really do is copy their data, and Zhang Yu had already done a good enough job.

The members of the Support Team went from initial shock to later numbness.

Finally, they began to mourn for those Mechanical Sentries that didn't know their place.

Of all people to provoke, they had to provoke a monster like him.

"Captain, do we really not have to do anything?"

Wang Qian asked softly, looking at the relaxed and carefree figure in front.

She carried a huge Medical Kit, feeling like a tourist accompanying the team.

Let alone treatment, she hadn't even touched the hem of Student Bai Ye's clothes.

"Otherwise?"

Li Feng gave a wry smile: "Are you going to offer him a bottle of water, or help him wipe his sweat? Student Bai Ye not only doesn't get tired, he doesn't even seem to get hungry."

They had already eaten two meals, but Student Bai Ye still looked full of vigor.

He was practically like some humanoid Demonic Beast, able to survive by simply absorbing energy from the air.

Wang Qian imagined the scene Li Feng described.

Herself wiping the sweat off a young man who was 1.85 meters tall with well-defined muscles.

The young man turned his head, looking at her with clear eyes... Her pretty face flushed, and she quickly shook her head.

The genre had completely changed.

Li Feng sighed:

"All we can do now is protect ourselves, not cause him trouble, and record everything here."

He glanced at Zhao Dezhu, who was carrying the camera next to him.

Zhao Dezhu understood, aiming the lens firmly at Student Bai Ye, afraid of missing any detail.

"Captain, do you think the Association knows Student Bai Ye is so fierce?"

Technician Zhang Yu pushed up his glasses.

"They know... Don't forget, some of his information was sent to us by the Association."

However, does a monster who can single-handedly sweep through a Tier 2 Secret Realm still need their so-called "Elite Support Team"?

"Perhaps the Association doesn't know he's this strong either?" Zhou Li guessed.

"Impossible."

Li Feng immediately rejected this idea.

"Student Bai Ye is a Special Recruit of the Association; his information must have undergone strict review. The Association couldn't possibly be unaware of his strength."

Just as they were letting their imaginations run wild, Student Bai Ye suddenly stopped.

Everyone else stopped as well, and just as they were about to ask, a violent energy fluctuation suddenly came from ahead.

A chilling aura permeated from a distant ruin.

Everyone quickly looked up.

At the end of the horizon, the outline of a building resembling an abandoned factory gradually became clear.

At the top of the building, a huge, honeycomb-like structure, seemingly composed of countless metal parts, was slowly wriggling.
