Chapter 88: So Fierce

"Good, good!" Seeing his two students were so powerful, Guo Qingrong excitedly called out good repeatedly. He was at the Mysterious level of cultivation, but when it came to killing beasts, he was far less efficient than Fang Chong and Ai Xi.

As long as Fang Chong and Ai Xi continued to perform like this, they would definitely be able to obtain an international Star Guardian rank.

At the same time, Wang Qiusheng from the Puhai Security Department led eight people, but before they could charge up, they were surrounded by a group of beasts.

This group of beasts was mainly composed of mutated jaguars and mutated horned dogs, numbering over a hundred.

The reason they were surrounded was that Wang Qiusheng lacked experience. Seeing these beasts besieging several guarding soldiers, he immediately wanted to lead his people to charge straight in to rescue them.

He didn't expect these beasts to be so strong; in just a short time, they killed the soldiers, and Wang Qiusheng's group of nine was delivered right into the encirclement of the hundred-plus beasts.

Realizing he had made a mistake, Wang Qiusheng shouted urgently, "Everyone back-to-back, don't hold back. Killing one is enough to break even, killing two is a profit."

At this time, who would still hold back?

Everyone frantically drew their blades to slash at the pouncing beasts; as for the infiltration-explosion long spears, they didn't even have the chance to fire.

Qu Yi looked at the bloody scene before her with a pale face. Although she had experienced it once, facing it again was still unbearable.

"Ah!" A scream came from not far away; it was Yuan Lutong.

Just as Qu Yi saw one of her companion's arms bitten off, a huge mutated jaguar pounced toward her.

Qu Yi hurriedly unleashed a wind blade. After receiving the origin energy stone gifted by Dou Qingzhi, Qu Yi was now a genuine level four genetic cultivator.

Her level four genetic cultivator status was different from Fang Chong and Ai Xi's. She had cultivated using genetic spiritual roots, and the technique she practiced, the Luo Consciousness Scripture, was far superior to the Thousand Tangle Genetic Technique.

Upon reaching level four, her foundation was solid, and her origin power was thick.

The wind blade technique of such a level four genetic cultivator, when dealing with this mutated leopard that wasn't even a level one beast, caused a spray of blood to explode in the air, and the leopard was split in two.

After killing a beast, Qu Yi seemed to adapt much more. She no longer cared how many mutated beasts were in front of her, her hands continuously slashing out wind blades, one after another.

Bursts of miserable beast cries rang out, and in a short time, the corpses of over a dozen mutated beasts piled up in front of Qu Yi.

Qu Yi became increasingly calm and composed. Although her face was getting paler, the wind blade technique in her hands was no longer slashed out messily, but in layers, one wave following another.

Compared to her previous self who didn't even dare to see blood, she was growing crazily in this slaughter, and her experience in killing beasts was becoming richer.

Qu Yi also understood that as long as she dared to show mercy, she would be devoured by the beasts the next moment.

The beasts weren't stupid; they soon realized Qu Yi was a tough nut to crack and scattered to avoid her.

However, Qu Yi followed the direction the beasts were avoiding and slashed her way through. As a level four genetic cultivator, dealing with these genetic beasts that were at most level one was no different from cutting melons and vegetables.

Soon, a strange scene appeared: a group of genetic beasts was circling a few people while attacking.

In other places, beast attacks naturally wouldn't circle; they would all charge straight in.

Only in this one place, because these beasts were circling while attacking, the threat to the people being attacked was much smaller.

And behind this group of beasts, a young woman was continuously slashing with both hands. The beasts seemed to be circling just to avoid her.

After experiencing the initial panic and discomfort, Qu Yi became calmer and calmer, and her complexion looked better than before.

Thinking about what these beasts had done before, countless soldiers guarding their homes had died in the mouths and under the claws of these beasts.

Behind these killed soldiers, how many broken families were there? How many wives, children, and parents were waiting? The most beautiful scenery in her heart had been ruthlessly slaughtered by the beasts.

Thinking of this, Qu Yi no longer held back, and her eyes became increasingly firm.

The beast horde knew to avoid her, which meant they had intelligence.

The beast horde knew she was powerful but didn't dare to flee, which meant what Director Dou said was true: there was a more powerful, intelligent great beast behind those swarms of beasts.

Because this great beast was watching from behind, they didn't dare to flee.

Wang Qiusheng, whose pressure had eased, looked back and finally understood what was going on.

Watching Qu Yi harvesting these beasts like wheat, he roared excitedly, "Everyone follow behind Qu Yi, take out your infiltration-explosion long spears and attack."

Because the beasts' attack power had weakened, under Wang Qiusheng's call, everyone understood what was happening and took out their infiltration-explosion long spears to fire.

Qu Yi alone had killed seventy or eighty beasts, and now that Wang Qiusheng had organized the others to act systematically, the remaining twenty or thirty genetic beasts were quickly slaughtered.

Looking at the bloodstains on her body, Qu Yi took a deep breath, suppressing the discomfort in her heart.

Before coming to the Human Corridor defense line, she had made this psychological preparation. She knew very well that once she arrived here, she would eventually have to face these endless, terrifying beasts.

Today was just the beginning; perhaps she would kill even more beasts in the future.

As long as these beasts continued to slaughter humans, her killing would not stop.

"Qu Yi, thank you. The thing I'm most glad about is telling Director Dou about you and inviting you to the Security Department."

"Without you, I, Wang Qiusheng, would be a sinner of the Security Department. None of the brothers who followed me today would have been able to return." Wang Qiusheng's tone was excited, carrying strong gratitude.

"Commandant Wang, this is what I should do. When I came, I had already decided to contribute some of my strength to the Human Corridor defense line." Qu Yi calmed her mood and said in a slower tone.

"Qu Yi, from now on, we will follow your lead. Whatever you say, we will do." Wang Qiusheng completely dropped his airs as a commandant.

Just as Qu Yi was about to refuse, she saw one soldier after another being torn apart or bitten to death by beasts. Even the people who had come with them were falling one after another.

She hurriedly said, "Commandant Wang, how about we support our way through like this?"

She didn't have any special methods, but she felt her strength could easily crush these beasts. Since that was the case, she might as well crush her way through.

"Good." Wang Qiusheng agreed immediately.

He had seen Qu Yi's strength clearly; this ability to kill beasts at close range was much more powerful than guns.

Although the infiltration-explosion long spears were powerful, they could no longer kill a level one genetic beast with a single shot. As long as one shot couldn't kill them, these genetic beasts could always find a few people to die with them.

That wasn't the most affected part; the most fatal thing was that the infiltration-explosion long spears couldn't fire at full power at close range.

With numerous genetic beasts and warriors fighting together, the infiltration-explosion long spears would cause indiscriminate attacks, inevitably leading to a large number of friendly fire incidents.

A genetic beast being hit might not be affected much, but once a warrior was hit, it was dangerous.

Seeing Wang Qiusheng agree, Qu Yi immediately rushed toward a group of soldiers besieged by beasts nearby.

Unleashing wind blades from the periphery, the lethality was even greater.

Groups of genetic beasts were killed by Qu Yi, and some timid beasts no longer dared to face her, wanting to flee alone.

For these straggling beasts, someone immediately blew their heads off with a gun. If one shot didn't kill them, they would fire another.

The people rescued by Qu Yi and the Puhai Security Department joined Qu Yi's team again, then pounced toward the next group of beasts.

This was like a snowball effect; Qu Yi's team was getting larger and larger, while those genetic beast groups were getting fewer and fewer.

In the distance, the Dahan Yi Academy's combat team was adopting almost the same strategy as Qu Yi's side.

Fang Chong and Ai Xi led the way, with the others following behind them, also beginning to encircle and kill these genetic beasts.

It might have been difficult at the beginning, but later on, the team grew larger, and the genetic beasts' strategy of splitting and encircling was broken.

Human Corridor Defense Line Combat Command Hall.

A man with a stubbly beard frowned, staring at the slaughter outside. His name was Zheng Fang, and he was the first wartime commander of the Human Corridor defense line.

He knew something was wrong this time.

Standing beside him was a white officer, the wartime staff officer of the Human Corridor defense line, Kendi.

Kendi also had a grave expression, "Commander Zheng, I feel this beast tide is a bit strange. They are charging the Human Corridor defense line regardless of death."

"Once our upper side is lost, the soldiers responsible for blocking will likely be slaughtered, and we will have to fight the beasts face-to-face."

Everyone knew that once they fought the beasts face-to-face, the disadvantage would be too great.

"I know. That beast keeps giving attack signals. In the past, at such times of death, they would have retreated long ago. Now they are still charging into the defense line regardless of their lives; there must be a problem."

Zheng Fang nodded in response.

The others in the command hall were frowning, thinking of solutions. This kind of beast charging onto the defense line corridor wasn't the first time it had happened, but one that charged up regardless of death like this had truly never happened before.

One had to know that for a beast to charge onto the defense line, at least a hundred beasts had to be filled into the artillery fire first.

This also required a large number of flying beasts to lead the charge, and flying beasts were the most precious to the genetic beast horde.

"Our defense line layout has problems. Without top-tier experts guarding it, this defense line will be breached sooner or later." Someone pointed out the key to the problem.

Zheng Fang sighed. After Huaxia's number one expert, Zhong Chi, went missing three months ago during a beast siege, the Human Corridor defense line had become more dangerous each time.

"Commander, look over there." An abrupt voice interrupted Zheng Fang, who was thinking of countermeasures.

When Zheng Fang saw Qu Yi leading a group of people harvesting beasts like chickens, he was also stunned.

"Which academy is this? So fierce?" Zheng Fang muttered to himself.
