"Sir, this is our pass to leave the city."

In front of the massive city gate, Zhang Xiande spoke with a man fully armed.

After the other party verifies the information, they also check the city guard's system. Only after two verifications will the passage be allowed.

Qin Sheng looked up and saw the city wall stretching straight up into the clouds, with no end in sight.

He could also sense that the city wall was not ordinary stone; there seemed to be something strange on top that reinforced his defenses, but Qin Sheng did not know what it was.

"Isn't it spectacular?"

Xu Xudong crossed his arms and stared at the weathered city wall.

"This high wall was built fifty years ago, and there is no explanation for its formation within the Kaitian Academy."

Qin Sheng was surprised: "There's no record of it?"

“It’s not that there are no records,” Le Ren said at this moment, “it’s just that we’re not qualified to know.”

Qin Sheng's gaze fell on Su Fei, who shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Is that so?

The city guards patrolling the area are at least at the seventh level, and it's estimated that grandmasters are not uncommon here.

This aroused Qin Sheng's suspicion.

Why don't these high-level martial artists go out to hunt those weaker beasts? After all, these thick city walls can protect them from beasts, and they can just rush back if there is any real danger.

These strange beasts aren't the extraterrestrial demons from novels; they have no intelligence and no gentleman's agreement.

If you put it in the context of mythical beasts, many people would be happy to bully the weak.

Asking the question, Su Fei calmly replied, "How do you know we didn't go hunting low-level beasts?"

"oh?"

"Grandmasters are rarely seen in the city because they are all sent out to hunt exotic beasts. The grandmasters stationed on the city walls are rotated out once a year to go out and hunt exotic beasts."

Su Fei sighed: "But we can't kill them all."

"Are the reproductive abilities of these strange beasts terrifying?" Qin Sheng hadn't yet figured that out.

"have no idea."

"have no idea?"

Su Fei nodded: "Even if we kill a lot of low-level alien beasts, the alien beasts seem endless and will always appear."

"The Nine Cities once jointly carried out a plan, sending more than a dozen kings and hundreds of grandmasters to wipe out all the strange beasts in a natural basin."

"The plan was very successful. Even though there were many types of disasters involved, they could only suffer defeat in front of more than a dozen fully armed kings."

"We originally planned to enclose that basin and build a city wall, but for some reason, many strange beasts suddenly appeared there."

Qin Sheng pondered, "Suddenly appearing? Does it mean the strange beasts outside came in, or a collective invasion?"

Su Fei shook his head: "No, it just appeared overnight, or more accurately, in an instant."

His face was full of solemnity: "Because the King who was stationed there at the time did not sense when the strange beast appeared."

Qin Sheng squinted and said, "This is not a normal phenomenon."

“Hmm.” Su Fei sighed, “Nine Cities hasn’t considered hunting low-level alien beasts since then. Now there are roughly two directions.”

"The first method is to kill high-level alien beasts. Only by killing all alien beasts such as Calamity and Natural Disaster can we eradicate alien beasts."

"The second type..."

He looked at Qin Sheng with a complicated expression: "No longer regard the strange beasts as a threat, but treat them as animals and coexist with them."

"Coexistence?" Qin Sheng paused, about to speak, but stopped.

"You mean you want everyone to be able to survive in front of the alien beasts, or even kill them?"

“That’s right.” Su Fei nodded: “It’s said to be a direction, but no one has really paid attention to it, since ordinary people don’t have the ability to survive in front of alien beasts.”

"But you seem to have brought some hope. After all, living weapons can perfectly replicate the power of alien beasts. If developed, at least humans of the same level will not have to worry about the threat of alien beasts."

Qin Sheng shook his head; he felt this path was unrealistic.

"Regarding the second path, the laboratory that once created intelligent beasts also intended to try this path," Su Fei added.

"According to the log, the people who initially built the laboratory intended to infuse the alien beasts with intelligence, so that it could lead the alien beasts and humans to make peace."

"But as the experiment progressed, more and more people with ill intentions infiltrated the laboratory, leading to the final tragedy."

Qin Sheng asked in confusion, "Why are you telling me this?"

Su Fei cautioned, "I'm just worried that you might go down this path too. After all, your initial intentions were good, but that doesn't mean the outcome will be good. I hope you don't go astray."

Qin Sheng chuckled: "Don't worry, I was just joking yesterday. I will never join the Creation Cult."

Su Fei secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Rumble...

Not long after the conversation ended, a deep voice rang out.

"They're gone."

Zhang Xiande called out, and a seven-seater jeep arrived.

He drove up only to find that there weren't enough seats!

"Hehe, Dandan, sit on my lap." Han Yishui hugged Zhang Dandan and got into the car without giving her time to hesitate.

Zhang Dandan blushed deeply and shrank back like a figurine.

Let's go.

With the roar of the engine, the massive city wall disappeared in a flash of light, revealing a vast plain and an endless blue sky.

Faint lines on the horizon outlined distant mountain peaks, and the perfect sunlight brought a touch of comfort.

Boom!

But it didn't last long. A burst of fire exploded not far away, and a head flew over their heads.

"Low-level alien beast".

Qin Sheng murmured to himself, it seems that attacks on the city by strange beasts are not uncommon.

Zhang Xiande drove fairly steadily, and the group chatted idly along the way. Several hours later, they arrived at their destination.

"Brother Su, why don't you just find it yourself?" Zhang Xiande suggested.

Ye Qianqing glanced at him and said coldly, "We came here to experiment with fake alien beasts. If he comes, then our trip is in vain."

"Alright, fine."

They were on a plain, where there was lush greenery, but it was ruined by huge footprints.

Some of these footprints are the same, but many are different, which seems to indicate that there are many strange beasts here.

Qin Sheng glanced at the time: "Shadow wolves only go out hunting after dark, right?"

Le Ren nodded: "Yes."

It's still afternoon, and there's plenty of time before dark. If we can lure out the Shadow Wolf now, it means the fake beast has been successfully created.

He took out the ugly monster and reminded Qin Sheng while he was setting it up.

"This will likely attract other strange beasts, so you'd better be prepared."

Zhang Xiande sensed something was amiss: "You're not targeting a monster, are you?"

"Hmm... Theoretically speaking, other alien beasts wouldn't come looking for death with such a terrifying fake beast."

After Qin Sheng finished making the adjustments, he turned around and smiled slightly.

"But who can say for sure about creatures like strange beasts?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pressed the button in his hand.
