Chapter 369: Artificially Catalyzed Wild BOSS?

"Beast Tide?"

Mo Qianjun looked at the young man panting before him.

His face was full of disbelief.

"Are you sure?"

Mo Qianjun's brows tightened.

Hearing this, the young man hurriedly replied:

"Old Mo!"

"I am sure. How would I dare joke about something like this?"

"The city defense army's red emergency alert has already been sent to all major guilds and core institutions!"

"Twenty kilometers outside the city, a wild BOSS is spawning!"

Hearing the young man's so certain answer.

Mo Qianjun was stunned.

Just then.

"Woo—!!!"

A piercing alarm sound tore through the night sky of Zhuxing Town.

The sound was extremely loud.

It echoed through every corner of the entire town.

At this moment.

Mo Qianjun was completely convinced.

"It really is a Beast Tide..."

At this time.

Xiao Li behind him widened his eyes.

"Impossible..."

"Zhuxing Town has been established for so many years, yet it has never suffered a Beast Tide."

"The environment around our Zhuxing Town is naturally unfavorable for spawning wild BOSSes."

"Let alone twenty kilometers; even within a hundred kilometers outside Zhuxing Town, it is almost impossible for a wild BOSS to spawn."

"It makes no sense..."

Lu Mingzhang also nodded frantically beside him.

"Exactly."

"I also remember that our town has never encountered a Beast Tide."

Yan Lie's brows furrowed slightly.

He glanced at Feng Cangqiong and asked in confusion:

"Indeed, something is wrong."

"Even if a wild BOSS really spawned, it is impossible for there to be no warning at all."

"Our Dragon Country officials have always been monitoring the wild environments across the country."

"Once the ley line energy of a wild BOSS begins to gather, the authorities can detect it at least two weeks in advance."

"But this time, it just spawned?"

Hearing Yan Lie's analysis.

Feng Cangqiong's expression also clearly became Serious.

He squinted his eyes.

He keenly realized the unusual nature behind this matter.

"Unless..."

Feng Cangqiong paused.

"Unless this wild BOSS was artificially catalyzed."

Upon hearing these words.

Everyone present was stunned.

Feng Cangqiong continued to explain:

"Currently, Dragon Country's monitoring methods can only achieve nationwide monitoring once a week."

"If someone forcibly shortens the BOSS spawning time during the monitoring gap and forcibly catalyzes the BOSS."

"Then it cannot be detected."

Hearing these words.

Yan Lie widened his eyes and said in disbelief:

"Old Feng, could you be referring to... that item?"

"Correct."

Feng Cangqiong nodded with a Serious Facial Expression.

"Accelerating Hourglass."

He snorted coldly.

"This item is extremely rare and is an absolute contraband explicitly banned by our Dragon Country."

"Once someone drops it in a Team Fuben, it must be immediately handed over to the state."

"It cannot circulate on the market."

Hearing these words.

Lin Mo's brows rose slightly.

"Artificially triggered?"

"Accelerated hourglass?"

"You can even play it like that?"

This kind of item—he truly had never even heard of it.

An item banned by Dragon Nation, now suddenly being used by someone to trigger a wild BOSS outside Casting Star Town.

And he just happened to be right here in Casting Star Town.

A flash of killing intent passed through Lin Mo's eyes.

Obviously.

The Adams family was up to its tricks again.

Trick after trick after trick—just you wait. Sooner or later I'll log into Beautiful Nation and twist the Beautiful Nation Grand Elder's head off to kick around like a ball!

In the skill bar.

【"Hehehehe!"】

'Fireball' was clearly thrilled to the extreme.

【"Beast tide?"】

【"Perfect timing!"】

【"This seat's little fireballs have long been thirsting for action!"】

'Fireball' laughed arrogantly.

【"Let them come!"】

【"This seat will let these ants know what true destruction means!"】

'Ice Spike' also let out a cold snort.

【"Hmph."】

【"Come on. This young lady will freeze them solid, then shatter them piece by piece."】

'Lightning Strike' also opened its eyes, its tone aloof.

【"Perfect timing."】

【"Under the thunder, all beings are equal."】

【"Just strike them all down."】

Seeing that all its older and younger siblings had declared their stance, 'Earth遁' was also unwilling to be outdone.

【"Protecting Master, Second Brother here has no choice but to accept!"】

【"You all just focus on dealing damage. As long as Second Brother here still has a breath left, the Wall of Sighs will forever stand before Master!"】

Hearing Second Brother's passionate declaration.

'Wind Blade' lit up.

【"Protect Master!"】

【"Cut the Master's enemies into pieces!"】

Seeing the skills all so excited.

Lin Mo chuckled lightly in his heart.

"Alright."

"Everyone will get a chance to perform."

Perfect—he also wanted to try out the power of his new weapon.

At the same time.

Wind Cangqiong also took a deep breath and waved his hand grandly.

"Enough!"

"Let's not think about it so much for now!"

"Whether it's man-made or not, the beast tide is about to arrive."

Wind Cangqiong looked at Lin Mo and Yan Lie.

"Let's go."

"We'll go meet the garrison of Casting Star Town and see what the situation is at the front line."

Hearing Wind Cangqiong's words.

Mo Qianjun immediately spoke up:

"Wind Old Ghost, I know the way. I'll take you there!"

After saying that.

Mo Qianjun turned his head, his gaze sweeping over the few disciples behind him.

"Wei Yan, take your junior brothers and sisters and all of you stay put in Qianjun Pavilion."

"Without this old man's order, no one is allowed to run around!"

"Understood?"

Wei Yan nodded heavily.

"Yes! Master!"

Once everything was arranged.

Mo Qianjun then led Wind Cangqiong and Lin Mo's group, heading out of the forging hall.

……

On the streets of Zhuxing Town.

The alarm wailed shrilly.

The streets were in chaos.

"Hurry! To the shelter!"

"Don't grab anything! Save your life!"

A young mother, holding her daughter—about four or five years old—struggled through the crowd.

"Mommy…"

The little girl hugged her mother's neck and blinked her eyes innocently.

"Such a piercing sound…"

"Mommy, are we going to have fireworks?"

Hearing her daughter's innocent question,

the mother forced back her fear and forced a smile.

"Y-yes."

"Fireworks are coming."

The mother held her daughter tighter.

"It's too noisy outside. Mommy will take you home."

"We'll hide under the covers and watch the fireworks, okay?"

The little girl nodded obediently.

"Okay~"

The mother gritted her teeth and ran desperately toward the shelter.

And on the other side of the street,

a much larger group of people, dragging their families, surged frantically toward the train station.

A young couple pushed desperately through the crowd.

"Wahhh…"

"I should never have come to this dump!"

The woman couldn't help complaining.

"Didn't you say Zhuxing Town was one of the safest little towns in the country?"

"Didn't you say no beast tide had ever struck here since the town was founded?!"

The woman grew more and more aggrieved.

"Why did the beast tide come just two months after we moved? We just paid the down payment on the house, and we haven't even started renovating! Why are we so unlucky?!"

Hearing his girlfriend's complaints,

the man wore a look of helpless resignation.

"Enough. Stop complaining. Let's just move."

On the streets,

ordinary citizens all ran frantically toward the station and the shelter.

In contrast,

a scattered but considerable number of practitioners moved against the tide, their faces grim, heading toward Zhuxing Town's city wall.
