Chapter 54 Pilgrimage
Now on Earth, the number of monsters far exceeds that of humans. Every once in a while, there will be a monster attack on the city. Although humans have held on, they have always been in a passive state of being beaten.
The monsters' siege is not disorderly, but is commanded by a high-level monster.
The lowest level of this commander is A-level. B-level monsters cannot command other monsters to attack a city.
A-level monsters are already rare on land. If high-level warrior teams and war god-level teams know where an A-level mutant beast appears, they will definitely kill it as soon as possible. Not only can they make a lot of profits, but they can also prevent monsters from attacking the city.
Therefore, it is rare to see A-level monsters appearing around the base city, and it is normal that Shi Lei and the others do not know about this situation.
Or maybe they knew, but just didn't think about it.
All the teams showed up, and when they saw that the monster didn't attack actively, everyone put all their efforts into killing it.
Those slightly weaker monster groups were named one by one by the snipers of each team, and then killed one by one after the monster groups were lured out.
"Kill the mutant birds first! Kill all these flying things!"
This is also the consensus of warriors when hunting. Kill the mutant birds first. Otherwise, it will be difficult to escape when they are chased by the mutant birds during retreat. The birds in the sky are also the guiding lights for other monsters, so they must be killed first.
Gunshots rang out around the square, and the flock of mutant birds was rapidly decreasing. After a while, all the crows were killed.
After clearing out the jackdaws, people began to clean up the low-level mutant beasts.
The efficiency of eight teams and forty warriors working together was amazing. After half a day, the group of monsters in the square became sparse, and it was almost impossible to find F-level and E-level mutant beasts.
Although the monster group has shrunk by half, the remaining ones are mostly D-level mutant beasts, and there are also some C-level ones, most of which are gathered at the entrance of the gymnasium.
The warriors simply ate something to replenish their energy, and then began the afternoon battle with great enthusiasm.
In their opinion, the kills in the morning were just appetizers. Only the kills in the afternoon would start to make money. These D-level and C-level mutant beasts were valuable.
Stimulated by the money, the warriors seemed to be injected with chicken blood and began to kill desperately. Some of them were even unwilling to rest when they were injured.
"Lao Gao, fight the Fiery Mane Horses. These creatures are born at D level and reach C level when they grow up. They are at the same level as the Ironclad Bulls, and are easier to deal with than the Ironclad Bulls. The only difference is that they are faster. We rely on armored vehicles, and they can't charge us."
"Okay! These fiery-maned horses are ours!" Gao Yan agreed, holding up a sniper rifle and preparing to call the roll.
"boom!"
Before Gao Yan could fire his gun, a shell exploded in the center of the group of fiery-maned horses, killing a pony instantly and injuring a dozen others.
The group of fiery-maned horses were enraged and no longer cared about the stadium. They ran towards the direction of the artillery fire.
However, while running, sniper rifles were heard from time to time, knocking down batches of fierce-maned horses to the ground.
By the time they rushed to the place, there were less than five of them left, and they posed no threat to the team at all.
"Damn! It's those people from the Demon God again. Those Fiery Mane Horses are obviously closer to us, but they don't deal with those around them. Instead, they come to rob us." Gao Yan cursed angrily.
"Forget it, Brother Gao. Killing monsters in the wild depends on your own ability. When we get a chance, we can just take it back." Lin Zhen advised.
Gao Yan nodded, took out his sniper rifle and started to call out the names of other monsters.
There were originally about 10,000 monsters on the square, but after a day of killing by eight teams, by dusk, there were less than 1,000 left.
Hundreds of C- and D-level monsters gathered around the gymnasium, and it seemed that they no longer posed any threat to the warriors.
After a day of killing, these warriors were tired, but their excitement had completely overwhelmed the fatigue.
Each team's armored vehicles were now loaded with a lot of spoils, and after cleaning up the last few, they could basically return home with a full load.
Shi Lei held the sword in his hand, took a deep breath, and asked the team members around him: "We still have these monsters. It's rare that they are so obedient. Can you still hold on? If you can, let's keep going and kill another wave."
"able!"
"We must persevere! We are here to make money. If we can catch fifty of these hundreds of pigs, we can make two hundred million!"
Lin Zhen looked at his somewhat excited teammates and suddenly said, "I think we can stop now."
"Why? The other teams are ready to go all out, why should we stop?" Ye Tiancheng asked Lin Zhen in some confusion.
Lin Zhen looked at Shi Lei: "Captain, you should have heard of the word pilgrimage, right?"
"Pilgrimage!" Upon hearing this, Shi Lei suddenly took a breath of cold air.
"Pilgrimage, doesn't that mean that only monsters that have evolved to A-level will appear? Are you saying that these monsters are on a pilgrimage?"
"Of course. Generally speaking, it takes a whole day, or 24 hours, for a rank A monster to evolve. We have been here for more than 16 hours, and these monsters gathered here before we came. Otherwise, how could our operation in the county be so smooth?"
Lin Zhen pointed at the high-level monsters that gathered at the entrance of the gymnasium and ignored the warriors around them. "Look at these. If these monsters were not so honest, we would not be able to move smoothly here. Judging from the situation after we entered the county, I estimate that these monsters have been here for at least more than 20 hours. Once the A-level monsters have evolved, this place will no longer be a paradise but a hell. So I think it's not too late to leave now."
Several people in the team had solemn expressions on their faces. They had gained a lot on this trip. After one day's kills, plus the armored bulls they had killed before, their harvest had almost reached 200 million.
But these monsters in front of them are the elites, and it is really unwilling to let them give up.
In the end, it was Zhao Liang who spoke first: "Lin Zhen, you mean we should go home now, right?"
"That's right. The harvest this time is enough for everyone to squander for a while. Knowing when to stop and knowing when to advance and retreat is the foundation for a warrior to survive."
Zhao Liang looked at Lin Zhen, made up his mind, and was ready to support Lin Zhen's decision.
But at this moment, warriors from other teams took action again.
These motionless mutant beasts are like mountains of gold and silver piled there. How can these warriors, who are always on the edge of swords and bleeding, not kill them?
There must be some warriors who also think that the monster is on pilgrimage, but they don’t want to give up. Doesn’t the pilgrimage take 24 hours? Maybe they still have time, and they still want to take a chance. This is the general mentality of warriors.
Seeing that several demon hunters had taken down three C-class demons in a row, Ye Tiancheng couldn't help himself and said to Shi Lei: "Captain, let's kill for another two hours. We can at least make tens of millions or even hundreds of millions!"
Shi Lei hesitated for a moment and looked at a few people: "What do you think?"
Ye Tiancheng took the lead and said, "I suggest that we stay and kill for a while. We are out hunting the giant-palmed man-bear. How can we leave without even seeing any bear hair?"
Zhao Liang said: "I agree with Lin Zhen's opinion. We should leave now and quit while we are ahead. We have already made a lot of money."
Gao Yan said: "I agree with Lin Zhen and Lao Zhao. The gains from this time plus the winnings from the bet are enough."
Lin Zhen glanced at Shi Lei: "Captain, what do you say?"
Shi Lei rubbed the sword in his hand and said with determination: "I want to stay."
After hearing Shi Lei and Ye Tiancheng's opinion, Zhao Liang spoke again: "Lin Zhen, since the captain and the others are willing to stay, then they can stay. Let's go back."
After knowing Lin Zhen's true strength, Zhao Liang already had the intention to follow Lin Zhen's lead.
Lin Zhen, who didn't want to suggest leaving, shook his head and said, "No, Brother Zhao and Brother Gao, you go ahead. I'll stay."
