The invasion of the beastmen was a heavy shadow. The Ferocious Beasts were already too strong and difficult to deal with. If these people were as cunning as foxes, who knew what kind of disaster they could cause.
However, before the destruction of Blazing City, they had not heard of any big movements from the beastmen. They did not expect that they would make such a big move.
After hearing this news, Han Lishi, who had no enthusiasm for the Ferocious Beast Tide, was even more anxious. He wanted to persuade everyone to return to the city.
"The Third Prince, the situation is not clear now. Should we retreat first and report to the Holy Sage, and then discuss with the Great Heavenly King Luo to see how to deal with it?"
Although the Abandoned Sword Villa was the vanguard, the situation was strange now. Returning first was the right thing to do.
Shen Zhenyi looked at him in surprise.
"Then, are we just going to ignore the Ferocious Beast Tide?"
You can't do anything even if you want to!
Han Lishi cursed in his heart and could only smile bitterly. "Even so, we don't know the location of the Ferocious Beast Tide now. The refugees of Blazing City came from the south and there are no traces of them. It will be even more difficult for us to find them … "
"Don't worry."
Shen Zhenyi seemed to have a well-thought-out plan.
"I know where the Ferocious Beast Tide is."
How do you know?
Han Lishi only felt a headache. It was really difficult to deal with this maverick Third Young Master Shen.
His ideas were always different and unexpected.
"Master, you already know where the Ferocious Beast Tide is?" Unlike Han Lishi's headache, Cynanchum Chinense was very excited. She went to Shen Zhenyi's side and asked curiously.
Although the scenery was good, nothing happened all day, so it was a little boring.
"I can smell it with my nose."
Shen Zhenyi was calm and composed. To him, this was like an outing.
The trip out of the city was nothing more than to let the three disciples get more used to this cruel world.
The atmosphere was getting more and more tense. The beastmen's activities were so frequent. The attack of the Ferocious Beast Tide might really come soon. When that time came, it would sweep across the Seven Wounds World. Even the current peace and stability would not be able to last.
— — If there was no powerful force to interfere, such a world would most probably end with the fate of the human race, right?
For many things, once one took a step back, there was no turning back.
The Seven Wounds World itself had already decayed and fallen. Even with the strong steel city, it was only a matter of time before the human race retreated from the stage of history.
Fortunately, he came at a different time this time.
Since he was already here, he might as well change his destiny.
Although it didn't mean much, one could always save the things one saw. It was like seeing delicate porcelain that was about to fall and shatter. Anyone would reach out and grab a handful.
"Then what are we waiting for?!"
Cynanchum Chinense was full of confidence. "Master, take us to deal with this Beast Tide, lest those Great Heavenly King Luo and the like make a fuss."
How could it be that easy?
Han Lishi almost wanted to shout out loud. Even if Great Heavenly King Luo and Guang Shengjun were here and knew the location of the Level 5 Direbeast Tide, they wouldn't be so careless and have to carefully consider how to deal with it.
Do you think you are going to kill a chicken?
However, he was still skeptical when he heard Shen Zhenyi say that he knew where the Beast Tide was. Maybe this Third Young Master Shen was just joking.
"Alright."
Shen Zhenyi casually agreed.
He waved his sleeves and walked towards the south.
"The Third Prince …"
Han Lishi wanted to say something but stopped. He called out with a bitter smile.
"What's the matter?"
Shen Zhenyi turned around and glanced at him deeply.
Han Lishi scratched his head. "The refugees just now said that they had never seen any traces of the Direbeast Tide in the south."
He was a little regretful that he spoke too quickly. If the Third Young Master Shen was just bragging, then let him brag. Wouldn't it be safer for Miss Xin 'er to go south and not encounter the Direbeast Tide?
Shen Zhenyi looked at him in surprise. "You believe whatever they say? Didn't you guess that there were many beastmen among them and still want to intercept them? "
This …
Han Lishi felt that his IQ was being looked down upon.
Could it be that Shen Zhenyi didn't believe these refugees from the beginning? But there were tens of millions of people, and not all of them were beastmen. Would they all lie?
Wait … the only one who told them that there was no trace was Xuan Ye San. If he was a beastman …
Han Lishi's back was drenched in cold sweat, and his chest was surging with anger. Could it be that he was deceived by a lowly refugee?
"I'll go ask a few people!"
The refugees hadn't gone far yet, and there were still people passing by them. If these people had encountered Direbeasts before, maybe he could ask a few more people to find out the truth.
He put Guang Xin 'er down and said, "Miss, please don't wander around. I'll be back soon!"
Han Lishi was also an impatient person. He twisted his body and rushed into the crowd. He grabbed a few refugees who seemed to be in good spirits, gave them food and water, and asked them one by one.
— — Most of the refugees had become delirious because of long-term panic and hunger. Seeing one or two Direbeasts was enough to become a nightmare for them for a lifetime. Han Lishi asked a few people, but he didn't get the main point. However, there were always those with higher cultivation bases who were slightly more clear-headed. When they heard Han Lishi's question, they told him the truth.
"Sir, what you said is correct. There is indeed a large number of Direbeasts in the south, but whether it is a Direbeast Tide or not, I really don't know. We have escaped from these Direbeasts several times. Originally, there were at least ten times more refugees on our side, but now there is less than ten percent left … "
This was the result of being killed and devoured by the Direbeasts.
That person's face was numb and in pain. It was unknown how much suffering he had experienced.
"How many times?"
Han Lishi was also surprised. "How could this be?"
It should be known that the Direbeast Tide had its own fixed route. Even if there was a slight deviation in order to hunt for food, it would quickly return to the right track.
In theory, the refugees and the Direbeast Tide would only encounter at most once. Either they were completely wiped out, or after escaping, the survivors could at least avoid this terrible Direbeast Tide.
Could it be that there were different groups of Direbeasts along the way?
Han Lishi was full of doubts. He came back to report and humbly asked Shen Zhenyi for advice.
Shen Zhenyi sighed.
"Isn't it simple? Someone deliberately let this side of refugees walk on the path of the Direbeast Tide."
What?
At first, Han Lishi didn't think of this possibility at all. Now that Shen Zhenyi pointed it out, he was suddenly dumbfounded.
— — This is … bait!
These tens of millions of refugees were just bait to lure the level five Direbeast Tide!
They ran forward in vain and lost their lives in vain. They never thought that this was a fate deliberately arranged by someone!
"Beast! Heart! Man! "
Han Lishi said each word clearly, gritting his teeth. He was suddenly enlightened and instantly understood the operation mode of the beastmen. No wonder they could mobilize the Direbeasts with no intelligence to carry out a strategy.
— — It turned out that they were all using the lives of their compatriots!
