[And on the Sea Soul Continent, hundreds of thousands of years ago, this "advanced plane" had already become a domain dominated by wizards and sorcerers.]
The "food disaster" that swept across millions of miles failed to provoke intervention from the Fourth Realm; ultimately, it was a Third Realm sorcerer who sacrificed himself to fight it... This shows that in the eyes of most wizards and sorcerers, mortal lives are truly worthless.
"They really are high and mighty, never considering others at all, the wizards and sorcerers of the four realms."
Yun Shou suddenly thought of something: "Speaking of which, if we look at it this way, it seems that the Sea Soul Continent doesn't value 'luck'."
You have learned that the Kara Behemoth is a creature whose size increases with its scale.
When there are only a few of them, they are only about half a meter tall, and a small child can easily handle them.
When they reach a dozen or so, they can grow to one or two meters tall.
When they form a colony of two to three hundred, their maximum size can reach five to six meters, nearly the height of a two-story building, and their offspring will inherit one-tenth of their body length.
[Although they are called "larvae," they can start giving birth once they have eaten enough and reached one-third of their mother's body length (minimum half a meter tall).]
The five-meter-tall Kara behemoth, though slow-moving and relatively clumsy, possesses thick hide and exceptional defense, requiring a martial arts master to defeat.
[Among the current famine-stricken creatures, there are over three thousand Kara behemoths, including at least forty monsters that are thirty meters tall, resembling a mountain!]
Such a gigantic beast, with its size and corresponding muscle strength, would be difficult even for a Grandmaster to handle!
[Moreover, they are simultaneously eating and reproducing, their populations growing larger and larger, and the maximum size they can reach is also increasing. By the time they have devoured all the trees along the route through the Ancient Myr Forest and reached Lanbo City, the largest of them might exceed 50 meters in length!]
[He will possess the strength of an early-stage Innate Realm cultivator, and 15 times the combat power of a Grandmaster!]
They formed a long line, continuously advancing and gnawing away at the forest's edge, so the affected area wasn't limited to just Rimbaud City; other nearby towns and territories were also within the damage zone.
"As expected, a city named Rimbaud is destined to be swiftly attacked."
When news of the "food disaster" reached them, the nearby lords gathered to discuss countermeasures.
[We must take advantage of the fact that the food disaster hasn't escalated further, and while we can still overwhelm them with sheer numbers of first-level transcendents, to deal with those Kara behemoths first!]
[These past two days, you've noticed a significant decrease in the number of people in the superhuman gathering areas of the city. Many grandmaster martial artists, wizard apprentices, and low-level sorcerers have fled the city.]
Defending the homeland? Not a chance!
[This is the internal atmosphere of the Haipo family; it's only been a little over two hundred years, and it can't be completely changed.]
[Ordinary people can't afford the commission, so why would it be worth it for superhumans to risk their lives to save them?]
[Some acquaintances you've made these past few days, such as several grandmasters, the spider sorceress, and the witch you explored the dungeon with, have also said goodbye and asked when you plan to leave.]
When the witch learned that you were preparing to intervene, her eyes widened: "Those stingy lords can't afford the fees. They'd rather flee with their possessions and only return to rebuild their territories after the famine is over."
"Besides, those Kara behemoths are worthless; even their meat has no value. They won't fetch a high price like the Argonians did before."
You shook your head: "Just pretend I was itching to do it."
Having said that, you stomped your energy and rose thousands of meters into the air, gazing into the distance.
Two thousand seven hundred miles away, a dark red tide was sweeping across the land, the lush green forests being devoured by the crimson. Wherever the giant beasts of Kara passed, the land was ravaged. They only ate organic matter, not soil.
"Interesting. They're beast tide type monsters, but unfortunately they're still too weak. A 30-meter-level Kara behemoth is only equivalent to a Grandmaster at the peak, and a 100-meter-level one is only equivalent to a Primordial Master at the peak."
If they don't grow to a certain size, they don't even qualify to be your punching bags.
"Forget it, it's more satisfying to just dominate the weaker players."
[You stretch your limbs and feel the fascia inside your body being stretched and deformed.]
"Consider it a warm-up. What kind of person is about to break through a major realm and doesn't even get a fight?"
"Aren't you one of them? You broke through to the fifth and sixth realms in a very ordinary and uneventful way, without any sense of crisis."
[You were about to go alone and defeat the "Food Disaster" single-handedly, but when you looked down, you noticed many black dots gathering a hundred miles away.]
They rushed over and discovered that the individuals were extraordinary beings ranging from the Zero Realm to the First Realm.
The weakest is equivalent to a martial arts master, corresponding to a "nascent sorcerer" whose body can be more than half transformed into an alien, or a "wizard apprentice" of level seven or above.
[The others have all officially entered the first realm.]
The group of people looked excited as they watched you arrive.
"It's One Punch Guarding the Clouds!"
"I never expected him to join us."
"He's a super strong expert at the second realm. With him taking action, we can definitely handle the food disaster!"
"Fantastic! Rimbaud City is saved!"
[You paused for a moment. The Sea Soul Continent wasn't that extreme yet. While most extraordinary individuals chose to flee, a small group still stood up.]
Among these people, you also spotted the "Three-Faced Vajra" sorcerer, Leora.
They were discussing how to solve the "food disaster," and were overjoyed to see you arrive, because if you were to take action, even the most formidable Kara behemoths could be defeated!
"Lord Shouyun, from now on, I'll give you a 10% discount on my potions!"
"From now on, I'll sell you animal meat at cost price!"
Some people approach you with a fawning tone. They can't offer enough to make you work for them and are afraid you'll leave because the price is too low. So they try to increase your willingness to work by offering other long-term, small benefits.
You nodded. Some people are fighting for their industry, some for their homes, and some to protect their interests. But at least for this moment, they are all standing on the same side.
You coughed lightly, thinking to yourself, "There's no need for any deaths in this campaign against the food disaster."
Xu Daolin: "Hmm."
[Although the number of the Kara behemoths that triggered this "famine" has exceeded three thousand, with dozens possessing the combat strength of Grandmasters, over a hundred possessing the combat strength of Grandmasters, and hundreds possessing the combat strength of First-Class to Martial Masters.]
However, there are still more than two thousand Kara behemoths that are only a few meters tall, or even less than a meter tall. More than half of these can be killed by ordinary people with swords or spears!
