Chapter 1164: Alliance?

Each reported their own war zone.

Who let you guys unite?

They asked calmly.

Lin An held the Death Seed in one hand, slowly absorbing the life force overflowing on the battlefield to replenish his consumption.

Although he hadn't consumed much, the power drawn by the Death Seed was no longer as before. This had nothing to do with the seed; it was purely because his spiritual energy was now too pure, with too much reserve.

Previously, killing a few people would fill him up, but now his replenishment and consumption are no longer proportional.

Moreover, any spiritual energy in the Apocalypse battlefield is quickly devoured by the 'Void' within a short time. Unlike in the world, where it can be stored for a long time.

As soon as the question was spoken, Parwa, who had been thrown onto the ground, gulped.

In his eyes, Lin An, who was currently absorbing life force, seemed like a dungeon boss—evil and terrifying. Streaks of bloody aura were sucked into Lin An's body, as if an evil god, adding an eerie hue.

Lord Lin An!

It's not my fault! The East Ocean war zone took the lead, and it's the Great Han side's plan that didn't listen to your orders!

I really was forced to come in by them!

Yes! Lord! We were all forced!

Faced with death, especially before Lin An's cruel methods, several people blurted out their own war zones, fearing Lin An would lump them together with the leading war zones.

They also knew that within the Asian major region, several countries are naturally at odds with Huaxia.

One minute later, after hearing everyone rush to speak out the information, Lin An nodded slightly, a flash of coldness appearing in his eyes.

Somewhat interesting.

According to these small-country war zones, even before the confrontation match information was released, they had privately contacted each other, preparing to form an alliance during the confrontation match.

Taking the East Ocean and Great Han war zones as the lead, Brahma and several neighboring small countries form another faction.

The rest are scattered small countries that no one pays attention to.

In short, they are basically divided into three major forces.

Lin An and Long An, in others' eyes, belong to the Huaxia war zone, forming their own side, and are also everyone's common target.

Brahma, Tai, and Nixia form a loose alliance.

The rest are unwanted war zones; even adding up a dozen or so countries yields fewer than thirty third-rank individuals.

They started massively capturing Tianmu people as reserve resources, and now they are gathering in this direction?

After realizing that his intimidation instead caused all war zones to accelerate the hunting of Tianmu people, Lin An couldn't help but frown.

If this continues, even if he were faster, it would be impossible to catch everyone.

Once someone realizes his strength cannot be resisted, these people might directly flee with the Tianmu people scattered. By then, the problem will only become more troublesome.

If we don't let these people realize how strong he is, he will really kill them all. This bunch of trash will either think he's threatening them or still hunt the Tianmu people the same way.

We must think of a way to catch them all in one net...

What he wants is to capture everyone; failing that, he at least wants to roughly control everyone so they continually flee toward the core area, without time to consume spiritual energy, to absorb the Tianmu people.

Thinking this way...

His resolve is firm.

Lin An simply threatened them directly:

How many third-rank are still to gather?

Just call them all over and say you've discovered my trail.

Upon hearing Lin An's meaning, the fortunate third-rank who survived trembled in their hearts.

Lin An probably means to hide among them, waiting for the fish to bite, to catch them all in one net.

They kind of figured it out; the earlier judgment that ten people could resist Lin An was just a joke. No one knows just how strong Lin An has become now.

Although more than twenty will continue to rush over later, they can at most gather thirty people. But this number, in Lin An's eyes, is still not enough to even be killed like dogs.

With a sigh of sorrow in his heart, he could only helplessly agree.

What else can we do if we don't lure the people over?

Their lives are in Lin An's hands. Looking at this method, even if they disagree, Lin An has plenty of ways to make them agree.

Send a message to the East Ocean war zone, telling them to move toward this side.

He handed over a communication device similar to an earpiece, Lin An spoke calmly, looking at the writhing Human-Insect on the ground.

His skin was stripped off all over.

At this moment, Wu Wen curled up on the ground; the burst muscle tissue, rubbing against the gravel, caused him to convulse all over in pain.

You... are dreaming...

If you have the ability... kill me!!

Straining to lift his head, Wu Wen looked at Lin An with eyes full of hatred; if looks could kill, he wished to chop Lin An into thousands of pieces.

He was unwilling, truly unwilling.

As one of the few Awakened Ones whose talent underwent a qualitative change at third rank, he once believed he would surely become the strongest. In his war zone, he single-handedly controlled all survivors, with both power and strength reaching their peak, worthy of being a regional overlord.

Within the entire alliance, his strength is also among the strongest; thus, after entering the confrontation match, even if he brought no Awakened Ones with him, he still became one of the decision-makers.

Looking at the unyielding Wu Wen who would rather die than yield, Lin An gave a light laugh and simply saw no need to waste more words.

He placed his right hand on the other's head.

Since he wasn't cooperating, he could only resort to some means.

Coincidentally, he hadn't yet done the experiment of using Cataclysmic Power to strengthen brain cells; right now there is a third-rank intermediate specimen here, perfect for a trial.

Devoid of emotion, as the Cataclysmic Power drilled into Wu Wen's brain like a knife, it violently began severing the neural connections.

In an instant, a scream of extreme pain burst from Wu Wen's mouth.

This pain, like a red-hot iron clamp gripping the brain, simply surpasses the limit of human suffering.

Ahhhh!!!!

At the gathering site, a large number of Awakened Ones listened to Wu Wen's wails with trembling hearts, their fear growing even greater.

They could not imagine what kind of suffering Wu Wen was enduring at this moment.

Have they found Lin An's trail?

After the clash, Wu Wen and ten third-rank fighters repelled Lin An? But do we still need to rush reinforcements? To prevent Lin An from launching a sneak attack?

Among the troop of up to ten thousand people, the leader Jin Yucheng somewhat unexpectedly looked at the caution sent by Pa Wa, and couldn't help feeling delighted.

Ten people plus one third-rank intermediate actually can oppose Lin An...

He let out a sigh of relief.

Although this was within their expectations, after all, before entering the confrontation, they had assessed the strength of a third-rank intermediate as best they could; normally, a third-rank intermediate versus a ten-person squad already carried risk.

Lin An being able to oppose someone of the same rank plus a bunch of third-rank beginners is already absurdly strong.

It's no wonder they attach such importance to it and treat it cautiously.

Just realizing the message was sent by Pa Wa, Jin Yucheng couldn't help but find it strange—he knew that Wu Wen was the one in charge; normally, it should have been Wu Wen sending them the message.

With caution, he inquired again of Wu Wen, then patiently waited.

A few seconds later, he saw Wu Wen send a message; although it was just a single simple character, it also dispelled his last doubt.

A smile appeared on his face; Jin Yucheng looked at the nearby Awakened One from the East who exuded a chilling aura, and couldn't help but say:

Cun Mu, let's hurry over!

Wu Wen's side says Lin An is nearby! But he let him escape! He's not as strong as we imagined! Wu Wen is enough to deal with him!

He escaped?

Covered in pallor and wrapped in a cloak, the Awakened One named Cun Mu let out a few surprised low laughs.

Then it seems we really overestimated him..

Then let's go; this time I'm here. He won't escape..

In the midst of the low laughter, Jin Yucheng subconsciously distanced himself from Cun Mu, because the low laughter in his ears was two sounds.

Lord Lin An! An insect tide is coming!

Lin An listened calmly to the report from the Long An members recovering from their injuries, and with a casual hand crushed the already idiotic Wu Wen.

He shook off his hand, then calmly looked toward the distant black line.

The experiment failed, and Wu Wen became an idiot.

Only now killing him is simply because Lin An has decided to change his plan and test the strength of the insect tide attracted by the strange fragrance.

First wipe out the insect tide, then wipe out the subsequent alliance.

Awakened Ones within a thousand kilometers around should be able to take care of most of them.

Much time has already been wasted, and Lin An also faintly realizes that his line of thought might need some adjustment.
