Chapter 4, The Beast Tide Approaches
This time, the beast tide is led by a horse beast that has grown to the Earth rank
Dad! Mom! Hurry downstairs! Enter the underground shelter!" Li Weiwei urged anxiously
... ...
These shells, although their power has significantly increased compared to the shells of the old world, are only effective against low-tier and mid-tier ferocious beasts. For more powerful ferocious beasts, only the strong among humans can deal with them
Li Weiyi hurriedly ran towards the compartment where his parents were, and at that moment, Li Tianhai and Zhang Xiaoxia were also awakened by the piercing sound of the alarm
The danger of the second-level beast tide is significantly higher, as it is led by heavenly-tier ferocious beasts. Even if the human survival base can withstand the attacks of the beast tide, it is likely to suffer heavy losses
From time to time, blades of air flashed among the ferocious beasts, stirring up splashes of beast blood and the unwilling roars of the savage creatures
Boom
After a light yet delicious breakfast, Li Weiwei helped to clean up the dishes and then sat down to rest. He planned to take a short break before heading out again to the survival base to hunt some ferocious beasts.
The urgent broadcast accompanied by a piercing alarm sound rings out repeatedly
Kill
Kill
Li Weiyi ran out onto the street, and there happened to be a tram heading to the outskirts of the survival base nearby. Li Weiyi immediately jumped on board.
Lu Hong, the foremost expert of Survival Base No. 7! He is affiliated with the Practitioners' Association! He serves as the head of the branch of the Practitioners' Association at Survival Base No. 7
Consider this! Although humanity now appears to be much safer, in reality, it remains in a precarious situation, uncertain of what tomorrow may bring
Attention everyone! Attention everyone!
A roar echoed, and a man clad in black armor emerged, brandishing a battle knife as he charged forward first
Soon, the railcar was filled to capacity, and with a long whistle sounding, it carried the practitioners towards the outer city of the survival base
Hurry up
Ahead, several kilometers away, smoke and dust fill the air! The sky is obscured and the sun is blocked! This is precisely caused by the advance of the terrifying beast tide
All practitioners, heed my command! Follow me to kill!
Therefore, as long as humanity's survival base encounters a Level 1 Beast Tide, it is essentially catastrophic
The royal-tier ferocious beasts! They are beings that surpass even the strongest of humans by a whole level
The non-cultivators hurriedly ran towards the nearby underground shelter, while the cultivators, with heavy expressions, boarded the tram, ready to engage in battle with those ferocious beasts
Wah ~ ! Wah ~ ! Wah ~ ! ... ...
However, Li Tianhai and Zhang Xiaoxia went to catch up on sleep after working the night shift all night
Moreover, a small number of equine beasts can grow up to 5 meters tall, becoming high-level ferocious beasts
... ...
As they gazed at the series of explosive flashes ahead, along with the immense clouds of smoke rolling in unabated, all the practitioners wore solemn expressions and clenched their fists tightly
... ...
Next, it will be the direct confrontation between the cultivators and the ferocious beasts
As the black-armored man unleashed this blade of energy, he had already plunged into the midst of the beast tide
The beast tide has been classified by humans into four levels: Super, Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3
In the present day, there is not a single human practitioner who can rival the imperial-level ferocious beasts
It is Senior Lu Hong!
Ding! The elevator has arrived at the first floor
"Hmm! Xiaoxia! Let's hurry!" Li Tianhai responded and pulled Zhang Xiaoxia to open the door and go downstairs, with Li Wei following closely behind.
In an instant
The ordinary horse beast, classified as a mid-tier ferocious beast, stands nearly 3 meters tall and possesses immense strength. They move in groups, and wherever they pass, everything will be crushed under their powerful hooves
The beast tide collided instantly with the army of cultivators
You people! Follow me!
... ...
At that moment, a broadcast announcement echoed from the outer city wall of the base behind.
As soon as the alarm within the survival base sounded, it indicated the approach of a beast tide. Since Li Wei's birth, he had only encountered it twice. The first time was when he was eight years old, and the second time was at the age of twelve. At that time, he and his parents had taken refuge in an underground shelter, anxiously waiting for the practitioners within the survival base to repel the beast tide.
The sound of calls echoed as teams of practitioners were dispatched from the survival base. With their small frames, they stood before the towering, dark walls of the base, guarding their loved ones and friends within the survival base.
Additionally, there are a few rare horses that can grow into earth-level ferocious beasts
The horse beast, as the name suggests, is a mutated evolution of the horses from the old world
The danger level of a Tier 3 Beast Tide is the lowest, typically led by one or several Earth-tier ferocious beasts, which assault human survival bases. Although there will still be considerable casualties among cultivators, it cannot shake the foundation of a survival base.
Subsequently, a brutal battle between humanity and the ferocious beasts erupted
It can be said that the Level 3 Beast Tide poses no significant threat to human survival bases
However, the five supreme beings consist of only five individuals, and it is unlikely that they would happen to be within the survival base that is being attacked by the royal-tier ferocious beasts.
A blade of light swept across, and a crescent-shaped air blade instantly slashed horizontally in front of the beast tide, causing the blood of the beasts to splatter as more than ten ferocious beasts fell down.
... ...
The current beast tide has been identified as a single beast group, specifically the horse beast group, classified as a level 3 beast tide
... ...
... ...
Ahead, the dust raised by the beast tide rolls in, gradually approaching the defensive position of the practitioners
The two sides have drawn closer, and the electromagnetic cannon within the base has also ceased firing
Li Weiwei opened his eyes and instantly got out of bed, standing up. Listening to the piercing alarm sound, his brows were tightly knitted together.
... ...
Dad! Mom! Don't worry, just wait for my triumphant return!
... ...
Soon, Li Weiwei was dispatched from the survival base along with a group of practitioners, standing at the forefront of the battle against the ferocious beasts
Beast tide? I wonder what level it is this time? I hope the survival base remains safe and sound
Furthermore, it is said that within that ocean, there may still exist the presence of royal-tier ferocious beasts
Trains whizzed through the survival base, carrying practitioners to the outer city of the survival base to confront the impending beast tide and defend the survival base that humanity had painstakingly established
At this moment, within the entire survival base, the shrill sound of alarms echoed everywhere
Outside the car window, there is a scene of panic
The beast tide surged like a torrent, carrying immense force as it crashed against the defensive positions of the cultivators
"Mom is waiting for you to come back!" Zhang Xiaoxia looked at her son with red eyes
The practitioner is to immediately proceed to the survival base outside the city
It is a splatter of fresh blood
Please note! This is not a drill!
Outside the survival base and in closer proximity, the area is relatively safer, with only some mid- to low-tier ferocious beasts wandering about, and high-tier ferocious beasts appearing only occasionally.
Under the full-speed operation of the orbital vehicle, the journey from the base center to the outer city of the base, which previously took more than 2 hours, now takes less than half an hour to complete
... ...
Seeing their son return safely, the couple finally felt their hearts settle after the anxiety they had just experienced. They quickly exited the administrative building, and upon the arrival of the tram, the family headed home
Since the new era, although the survival of humanity has been greatly secured, it is still limited to within the survival bases
... ...
With Senior Lu Hong here, what do we have to fear!
Dad! Mom! They have left! Let's go home!" Li Weiwei smiled and waved to Li Tianhai and Zhang Xiaoxia, who were standing under the glass window of the administrative building.
Just as Li Weiwei was resting with his eyes closed in his small cubicle, a piercing alarm suddenly went off
As for the highest level of the Super Beast Tide, it is defined as an assault by royal-tier ferocious beasts! Even the combined efforts of the five strongest individuals would be of no avail! One can only wait to be annihilated!
Among the human beings on Earth today, the five most powerful super beings can only rival the king-level ferocious beasts among the fierce creatures
Level 1 Beast Tide, it is led by royal-tier ferocious beasts! Royal-tier ferocious beasts! It can be said that only the five supreme beings among humans can contend with them
... ...
... ...
If the royal-tier ferocious beasts were to mobilize and sweep through the human survival bases, that would truly be the end of humanity! At that time, it is estimated that humanity on Earth would face real extinction
If one were to venture further, the likelihood of encountering high-level ferocious beasts would significantly increase, and there is even a possibility of encountering earth-level, sky-level, and even king-level ferocious beasts
Since the establishment of human survival bases, there has not been a single attack from a Level 1 Beast Tide; as for Level 2 Beast Tides, there have only been a few occurrences; regarding Level 3 Beast Tides, more than one hundred human survival bases on Earth have, on average, encountered at least one.
Kill
There are screams, there are cries, and there are prayers
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Li Tianhai and Zhang Xiaoxia watched as Li Weiyi ran away, their hearts filled with worry, silently praying to the heavens for Li Weiyi's safe return
... ...
... ...
Please note! This is not a drill!
Upon hearing the broadcast mention a Level 3 Beast Tide, which was merely a herd of equine beasts, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief
You are now a practitioner and must go beyond the base to fend off the beast tide. Your father hopes you will return safely, but we cannot allow those ferocious beasts to underestimate us humans, Li Tianhai said with concern in the elevator
That is the projectile fired by the electromagnetic cannon, striking towards the distant tide of beasts
Under the leadership of the strongest among the base, the practitioners' confidence surged instantly as they charged forward with their blades against the beast tide
The current beast tide has been identified as a single beast group, specifically the horse beast group, classified as a Level 3 beast tide
Immediately afterwards, all broadcasts within the entire survival base were activated
Non-practitioners, immediately enter the underground shelter
A series of howling sounds suddenly swept overhead, carrying streaks of fire away.
The practitioner is to immediately proceed to the survival base outside the city
This time, he has become a practitioner and is about to confront the beast tide outside the base.
It is Senior Lu Hong!
... ...
There is the blood of human practitioners ! ! There is also the blood of fierce beasts ! !
Non-practitioners, immediately enter the underground shelter
