"Where do you think that abomination is hiding? We've searched all three housing developments and the two old town areas, but we haven't found it!" Jiang Yuan, who was walking at the front, asked in bewilderment.
They came out in the morning, and it's already 3 p.m.
After half a day, many people in the West Gate area were saved, but the number of people who died tragically was also rising sharply.
From the initial Tianlan Huating to the current old city, the number of corpses on the ground is increasing. It is no exaggeration to describe it as a field strewn with corpses. It is hard to imagine what kind of fierce battles must have taken place in the seven streets that are closer to the beast tide.
No matter how tragic the situation, people will still rush forward one after another, driven by the desire to save humanity, hunt monsters for resources, and become stronger.
“The Abomination must have been here; I can sense its lingering presence!” Ning Yanlan pointed to a location—a mountain of corpses, most of which were monsters from the beast tide. “The Abomination devoured many corpses there.”
"It seems that this abomination has indeed disintegrated, otherwise it wouldn't have hidden in a place like this to grow stronger by devouring corpses!" Jiang Yuan said, clearly deep in thought.
The Abomination's strength is very strange. According to the analysis of the Heavenly Eye, when it devours enough corpses or living beings, it will transform back into a combined version of the Abomination. At that time, the Abomination will not only be very strong, but will also reactivate its talent 'Disintegration'. In other words, the Abomination will once again have a brief period of super strength after disintegration.
"We must dare to kill him before he gets stronger, otherwise he will be a difficult problem to solve!" Jiang Yuan said solemnly.
He didn't know what the limit of devouring was. Although this way of becoming stronger by devouring external forces was not a respectable practice, as things stand, Abomination would not have a backlash problem before reaching the ninth rank.
"If the Abomination wants to regain its previous strength, it will inevitably devour the corpses of those powerful individuals, and it needs a considerable number of corpses. If it wants to go, it will definitely choose to go to the front line. As long as we narrow the area step by step, the Abomination will not escape our grasp!" Leng Yue's killing intent towards the Abomination was no less than Jiang Yuan's. She disliked people who became powerful through cruelty and killing, especially since the Abomination was no longer human.
"Let's go, let's enter the battlefield!"
Without hesitation, the three stepped into this street filled with carnage. West Gate, this was the first direct confrontation between humans and beastmen.
Previously, when the beast tide besieged Nancheng, Nancheng suppressed most of the beast tide with the remaining technological means. The beast tide only slaughtered the isolated refugee camps on the outskirts. This was the first time that Nancheng's humans had a direct confrontation with them.
...
Inside the luxurious mansion in the southern city
"Commander, the Ximen Crimson Blood Army has withdrawn its defenses, leaving only three small squads there to maintain morale!"
"You're still being too obvious!"
On a golden dragon throne that symbolizes supreme power, a man is lecturing a woman who is kneeling below him.
"Commander, the West Gate is not only guarded by our troops, but also heavily guarded by other forces. If we are more discreet, it will be difficult for the spirit beasts to break through in a short time, given their intelligence. In that case, public opinion in the South City will be even more unfavorable to our Crimson Blood Army!"
"None of that matters now. Our focus should be on what we brought back from the Holy Spirit Pavilion!"
...
"Still no sign of abomination!"
Jiang Yuan and his two companions had already walked through two streets. Every scene on the streets illustrated the horror of war: severed limbs and broken bodies were everywhere, and blood had almost stained the once bustling streets red.
Those who haven't awakened their spiritual power are simply targets for slaughter when they encounter monsters. After the West Gate was breached, most of those occupying this place were ordinary people, which led to this horrific scene.
"Let's sweep the next street!" Leng Yue's killing intent grew stronger. This was a way for the Dark Hunter's abilities to evolve. When enough killing intent corrupted the light into darkness, and enough negative emotions made you fall, that was the Dark Hunter's hunting moment.
"How many monsters have we killed?" Jiang Yuan looked back at the mountains of corpses and seas of blood he had passed through. The West Gate area was destined to be a killing field, where death was the main theme.
"I killed two hundred and twenty-eight!" Leng Yue's data was accurate to the single digit. The next enhancement of the Dark Hunter bloodline would require the slaughter of at least tens of thousands of monsters, and the current two hundred and twenty-eight was just a tiny fraction.
Jiang Yuan shrugged and announced his number: "Seventy!"
He killed far fewer monsters than Leng Yue. Leng Yue didn't consider the monster's rank when killing; her killing intent was focused on the quantity of living beings slaughtered, not their quality. Jiang Yuan, on the other hand, was the opposite. He didn't want to fight low-rank monsters because it was thankless and risked internal injuries. If it weren't for the safe evacuation of the human race in the Ximen area, he wouldn't even have the desire to fight.
As for Ning Yanlan, she was even more direct. Apart from the battle of hatred, she hadn't fought since. The whole time she spent was conserving her energy, except for using the Breath of Stone to observe the enemy's situation.
"The third street ahead is being attacked by a large number of monsters, and the residents inside are in grave danger!" Ning Yanlan made a precise judgment through the Stone Breath.
"Is there no one guarding the camp?" Jiang Yuan asked instinctively.
They passed through places where the Southern City forces were present, and people from the camp appeared several times, but they were all strangers, so they didn't go to greet them.
So Jiang Yuan was shocked when he heard that the third street had been attacked by monsters.
“There are people stationed here, but it seems that most of them have been transferred to the seventh street, which has weakened the defense of the third street, giving those monsters an opportunity to take advantage!” Ning Yanlan said truthfully. The range of Stone Breath’s perception is ten miles, and the range she can perceive covers a considerable area. However, the people here are mixed together, and the aura is extremely chaotic. If she wants to find out where the Abomination is, she still has to shorten the distance.
