Chapter 1368: That World Is Very Beautiful

Three minutes later.

Above the fortress cloud layer.

Looking at the massive fortress beneath him, Lin An, showing vigilance, spread his mental power out to a hundred kilometers away, confirming that the last batch of three Fourth Rank flew out.

Under his constant observation, the three Fourth Rank Alien Species sent out to find him have mostly been dispatched.

Those left behind are Alien Species not assigned to any mission.

There is also no aura of Fourth Stage around; this means that even if a Fourth Stage were to suddenly appear, he would still have a full minute to react. Even if it were an Overlord, he would probably have about seventeen seconds to escape.

Although it's a pity to let some of the three Fourth Rank go, there's nothing that can be done.

Killing these three Fourth Rank would be too obvious a target.

"How to kill..."

In the thick, yellowish, corrosive clouds, Lin An's eyes flickered as he looked at the masses of Alien Species on the ground, constantly thinking about how to strike.

The optimal solution is surely to envelop the whole process with mental power, then instantly blow up the heads of these Alien Species.

With his current mental strength, he could probably repeat the burst four or five times and kill them all.

In a situation where his moves cannot be seen at all, these Alien Species don't even have the chance to use system functions to transmit messages.

But...

"There's no volcano nearby, and the ground conditions don't seem to easily trigger an earthquake."

"Using mental shock to kill them all is indeed convenient, but the corpses would be too conspicuous."

"Even if we shattered the corpses after killing them, it would still be noticed that something is wrong..."

"The ring can't hold that many corpses."

His brows furrowed slightly.

In Lin An's view, the best approach is to disguise himself as an Alien Species and carry out the killing, turning this massacre into a somewhat strange disaster.

But the problem is that Alien Species generally have poor willpower attributes, or rather, they are not skilled at using mental attacks.

Perhaps their mental resistance is decent, but up to now, none of the Alien Species Lin An has encountered have ever used a mental shock.

This means that his method of killing Alien Species with mental power is no better than a firefly in the night, directly informing the Alien Species hunting him that he has been here.

"Even if he disguises himself as a Fourth Stage Alien Species and uses mental power, it won't work..."

"Although this world has some independent Fourth Stages, equivalent to lone wanderers in the Apocalypse on Earth, this group of Fourth Stages is not registered within them."

"But it's still too targeted."

"Spiritual energy also cannot be used on a large scale. The spiritual energy inside me is clearly different from that of this world..."

"Can we summon Shen Yuan creatures?"

"No... it's too special."

Looking at the masses of Alien Species beneath him, in Lin An's eyes these monsters that are like walking points, the problem that was difficult for him at this moment has instead turned into how to kill the opponent.

Unable to completely destroy corpses and erase traces, he for the first time felt somewhat lamenting that his ring's space was too small.

If he could store the corpses of a hundred million Alien Species all at once, he wouldn't mind telling the Alien Species of this world a ghost story.

After a few seconds of thought, Lin An finally made up his mind to use only pure physical strength, slaughtering the city single-handedly!

Although it's a bit troublesome, it is indeed the safest course.

With his current physical strength, even killing all these Alien Species would not consume too much stamina.

Having reached this conclusion, Lin An simply blinked toward the edge of the fortress.

However, in an instant he appeared at the outermost part of the fortress, which looked like a slum where low Fourth Rank Alien Species lived.

Inside a room resembling a pigeon cage, a family of six Alien Species were eating.

Similar to human habits, at a simple meal table, a male Alien Species with a somewhat hunched body was smilingly watching several small Alien Species gnawing on stones.

"Eat up, eat more."

"When dad comes back next time, if you get full marks on your exams, dad will take you to eat meat!"

"It's real meat~"

"Wow! Really?"

In a childish voice, at the meal table, three small Alien Species squatting on their own tails hissed, sticking out their tongues, eyes shining as they looked at him.

"Dad! I will definitely get full marks! The teacher taught us how to tell when acid rain falls and where underground fire occurs; I've learned all of this!"

"Yeah! Dad, we've been studying hard; I got full marks last time!"

"What kind of meat is this? Is it snake-eating eagle meat?!"

"That's right, it's the meat of those monsters! The uncles who protect us killed many monsters this time; Dad helped them transport ore, and they gave him some."

"As long as you wait for me to come back next time, I'll take you to a big meal!"

Laughing happily, the man affectionately patted the heads of the few small Alien Species, his eyes full of love.

Compared to him, who can only do hauling work, in his heart he very much hopes his children can study well and seek jobs in the exploration team.

Although it's also dangerous, in recent years as the Apocalypse has become increasingly chaotic, this job is already considered safe.

"You really spoil them too much."

"Qing Shi, what do we do if you've spoiled the kids? I've heard that recently those monsters have come out in large numbers, I think..."

Sitting beside the hunched Alien Species, an Alien Species with softer lines couldn't help but chide the past, as if blaming her husband for making reckless promises.

Being able to eat stones with spiritual energy is already good; meat, however, can fetch a considerable amount of money.

As a lowly Alien Species, she has recently been hearing that those big figures are withdrawing from the front lines, and many places have seen many "people" die.

In a lifetime of unrest, she hopes even more to save some money; perhaps then she can survive the days of fleeing.

Just saying that, after the woman sighed, she still divided the stones in her bowl among the small Alien Species who felt a bit down.

"It's fine; everything will get better."

"I'll tell you a secret... I wasn't just going to handle affairs with those big shots these past few days, was I? I heard, I heard that the topmost top-level existence seems to have found a really, really good place!"

"It's said that there, there are no those monsters! There's even clean water! Maybe in the future, our next generation won't have to suffer like we do!"

"As he spoke, the man's hunched back straightened slightly, his eyes seeming to glow."

"He didn't know what those big shots had discovered, but he faintly sensed that the withdrawal of the defense line was very likely because those big shots had gone to that place, intending to take them away from here!"

"Like a sigh, the middle-aged alien species couldn't help but look at his own child; in the description he had heard, that place was as beautiful as heaven!"

"Looking at his own child, he seemed to see their happy life there."

"Even if he himself were to suffer more and grow more tired, he would endure until his children grew up, so they could live a life different from his."

"Wow, really? Dad..."

"Pfft!"

"Before the young alien species' tender voice could even speak, in the next second, in the middle-aged alien species' sight, a black alien species whose whole body exuded deathly intent suddenly appeared before him."

"And this black alien species, like something walked out of hell, at this moment actually stepped on his child with one foot, turning him into minced meat."

"His smile froze on his face."

"Seeing the blood spattering on the ground, in an instant his whole body trembled, as if on the verge of collapse, his mouth only able to utter anguished cries."

"It was as if squeezed out from his throat, an expression of extreme pain, a dazed look."

"His child, trampled to death by one foot."

"However, without giving him any time to make a sound, Lin An's expression cold, his right hand at extreme speed, like swatting a fly, instantly blew apart his and another alien species' heads."

"Boom!"

"A faint cracking sound rang out."

"Looking at the family of six he had casually instant-killed, Lin An fell silent for a moment, as if speaking to himself, muttering softly."

"Yes, that is a very beautiful world."

"The strong smell of blood rushed into his nostrils; after Lin An finished speaking, his figure vanished again, appearing in another room."

"The slaughter, begins."
