This news made the intelligence station dead silent.
Even the well-trained frontline intelligence workers, who had excellent mental fortitude, were somewhat desperate and panicked at this moment.
The Nordic Continent … was gone!
A continent as big as this was actually completely wiped out!
All the base cities and the population of two to three billion had been eaten by the wild beasts!
Only a few legendary battle pet warriors and some powerful titled battle pet warriors managed to escape. The rest of the general public had lost their lives!
All the base cities had become nests for the wild beasts!
No one would have believed it if it weren't for the fact that the source of the information was true.
After a long period of silence, the leader of the intelligence station, a titled battle pet warrior at the peak of the titled rank, was the first to come back to his senses. "Send this information to the Tower right away. Also, tell the legendary battle pet warriors in charge of the three defense lines. Use the emergency channel and contact them in person. This information cannot be leaked!"
The Subcontinent District would be plunged into chaos once such shocking news got out.
The general public would lose all hope. Once that happened, they would be capable of doing anything.
Everyone came back to their senses. Their faces were ghastly pale but they still obeyed the order. They quickly operated the devices to send out the information.
…
The headquarters of the three defense lines of the Subcontinent District received the news as soon as it was out.
Even the legendary battle pet warriors could not believe what they had just heard.
An entire continent had been wiped out in the blink of an eye!
It happened without a sound. There was no sign or news!
They didn't even receive a call for help!
That was to say, the speed of the destruction was much faster than they had imagined!
"Is … humanity really going to be wiped out this time?"
In one of the three defense lines, the Blood Rock Defense Line, a legendary old woman stood on the attic and looked at the night sky. She felt that the night sky was terrifyingly dark, like thick ink that could not be dissolved. It was difficult to breathe.
"Those wild beasts are focusing on the Nordic Continent …" In the Sheng-Long Defense Line, an old man with gray hair sat in his study with a frown.
He was Yuan Tianchen, the commander-in-chief of the Sheng-Long Defense Line.
He was in charge.
He had learned from the Tower Master that there were eight Fate State wild beasts. Yuan Tianchen knew that the strike would be of a large scale.
But it turned out to be more horrifying than he had imagined!
He remembered the Nordic Continent.
There were three Void State battle pet warriors there.
But according to the information, only one Void State battle pet warrior had managed to escape. The other two had died!
As for the one who escaped?
He went back to the Tower to recover.
But … wait for the other continents to be destroyed?
In the end, the Tower would have to face the strike as well. Where else could they hide?
"It seems?
We have to think of a way in advance. We can't just sit here and wait for death. "
"Fortunately, she has already left. These fellows came just in time. It's a pity …"
Elder Yuan's eyes flickered.
Was it both gratification and a sigh?
He was relieved that his granddaughter had already left the hellish place known as Blue Star. What was he sighing about?
What about the experts who came to recruit students?
Could he save them just by lifting a finger?
However, he chose to ignore them. Moreover, they were unable to beg for mercy. Otherwise, the other party would become impatient and kill them with a raise of his hand. They would die before the beast tide even arrived.
"A place to hide … Perhaps that secret realm will do."
Lights flashed in Yuan Lao's eyes. Although the Blue Star was not big, there were many space cracks in the barren area. Inside some of the space cracks were lost worlds with secret areas and inheritances.
These mystic realm inheritances were extremely spacious. Furthermore, there were many mystic realms, so there were quite a few hiding places.
…
"Northern Europe … is gone."
In the Xing-Jing Defense Line, a middle-aged legendary battle pet warrior was sitting on a chair. The secret report he had just heard was still echoing in his ears.
The entire Northern Europe was gone!
He was in a daze. Many thoughts came to his mind in an instant. Soon, he came back to his senses and a man came to his mind.
"I have to tell him about this!"
The middle-aged man came back to his senses. He knew that the real backer of the Xing-Jing Defense Line was that young man. That young man had the right to know about such an important matter.
…
Longjiang Base City.
Pixie Pet Store.
Su Ping poured a glass of water for Joanna and said casually, "We're alone in a room in the middle of the night and we're talking about formations. Do you think anyone would believe that?"
Joanna took over the warm water and rolled her eyes at Su Ping. "How can you joke at a time like this? You're the one who's in trouble."
"It doesn't matter how bad the situation is. It can't get any worse."
Su Ping smiled.
Joanna finished the water and said, "Based on your current progress, you should be able to master it in two days. To be able to learn it in three days … I'm really good at teaching people."
"Haha."
Beep.
Su Ping's phone rang.
The smile on his face disappeared. He frowned and picked it up.
"Mr. Su." Xie Jinshui's voice came from the other side of the phone. His voice was trembling. "I … I just received news. Something … something big happened!"
"What happened?" Su Ping's heart skipped a beat as he pictured the scene in the Deep Caves.
"The Nordic Continent … has been destroyed!"
Xie Jinshui said in a trembling voice, "An entire continent has been destroyed! I heard that many legendary battle pet warriors were killed. Only two or three managed to escape! All the base cities there have been destroyed by the Demonic Beasts! "
Su Ping's face turned pale.
As expected.
What was going to happen had happened.
He knew that the scale of the strike couldn't have been small, given the traces of wild beasts he had seen in the Deep Caves.
"I see," Su Ping said in a low voice.
Su Ping clenched his fist as he thought of the powerful battle pet warriors from the Federation who had left during the day. Once again, he was filled with anger. But this time, he didn't let it show. He kept it to himself.
The Nordic Continent was destroyed right after the Star Rank battle pet warriors left. It couldn't have been a coincidence!
Su Ping never underestimated the intelligence of wild beasts. Some beast kings that had cultivated for hundreds of years were smart enough to know how to scheme like humans.
He even suspected that the wild beasts had a way to get information from humans.
"The commander-in-chief of the Xing-Jing Defense Line, Mr. Lu Chuanqi, wants to talk to you about this. He's on his way." Xie Jinshui calmed down a bit. Even though Su Ping didn't say anything, Xie Jinshui felt safe after hearing Su Ping's voice.
"I will ask the sentries to keep an eye on the barren areas. Mr. Su, this time …"
"We can survive!"
Before Xie Jinshui could finish, Su Ping interrupted him and said with certainty, "That's right.
He needed confidence!
He needed determination!
If he fell into despair and collapsed before the battle, it would only completely extinguish the already slim hope that he had!
Xie Jinshui was shocked to hear Su Ping's words. His confusion and fear were mostly gone. He took a deep breath and said bitterly, "Mr. Su, you're comforting me at a time like this. I'm ashamed. I know what to do. No matter what, I will lead everyone and fight until the last moment!"
"Okay."
Su Ping nodded.
He hung up the call and looked out of the store.
A man was flying over. He was a legendary battle pet warrior.
"Mr. Su."
Soon, the legendary battle pet warrior arrived. It was Legendary Battle Pet Warrior Lu, who was in charge of the Xing-Jing Defense Line.
Su Ping nodded. "I've just heard from Mayor Xie. This strike is unusual. The Deep Caves have been quiet for years and many ferocious beast kings have been born. There are many Fate State wild beasts, more than you know. You have to keep an eye on the surrounding areas. You won't be able to help in time if the wild beasts attack you."
The rugged Legend Lu was startled. Looking at the calm young man in front of him, he suddenly felt a little more confident. He solemnly said, "I will. Since Mr. Su already knows about this, I'm relieved. If Mr. Su has any ideas, you can contact me directly. This is my contact number."
"Okay."
Su Ping wrote down Legendary Battle Pet Warrior Lu's number and entered it into his phone.
Su Ping thought for a moment and said, "I suggest that we shrink the base cities in the defense line. The smaller the area, the better the protection."
Legendary Battle Pet Warrior Lu thought about it and said, "I'll think of something. Most people don't want to leave their base cities, but this is a critical time. They have to obey."
Su Ping nodded.
The general public didn't know how serious the situation was because the higher-ups had blocked the information.
They were aware of the scale of the beast strike and the disaster, but they didn't think that the entire human race would be wiped out.
Once someone really thought of this step, it would cause panic and even worse things would happen.
Legendary Battle Pet Warrior Lu left after saying goodbye. Su Ping went back to his store as well.
"There are too few legendary battle pet warriors. I wish there was a way for titled battle pet warriors to reach the legendary rank." Su Ping shook his head and heaved a sigh.
Joanna replied to Su Ping calmly, "There are ways. It's just that the price is too high."
"There are ways?"
Su Ping stared at her.
"Of course. The legendary rank you're talking about isn't a big deal. It's just the first step from the mortal rank to the cultivation rank. The most difficult part is reaching the Star State."
Joanna said indifferently, "Among the things I know, there are several divine fruits that can help a living being be reborn and shed their mortal body."
"Well …"
Su Ping blinked.
Sure enough, knowledge is power!
Joanna's knowledge was much broader than his. After all, her original self was a God of Order from the Demigod Burial. He didn't know what level she was at in the Federation, but she was definitely one of the top experts.
"Do you have any of those divine fruits?" Su Ping asked at once.
Hearing this, Joanna rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're thinking about me again."
"You're rich. Oh, no. You're a sorceress." Su Ping grinned.
"You're a sorceress. Your whole family is a sorceress."
Joanna was so angry that she rolled her eyes. A sorceress? That was how they described the god race's old hag. Although she knew that her true self was a little old, so what?
Did I eat your rice?
"Let me finish first." Joanna snorted coldly and said, "Apart from one of the divine fruits called the Calamity Divine Fruit, the other divine fruits all have side effects. The Calamity Divine Fruit … is extremely rare. It's even rarer than some Overgod level treasures."
"Although the other divine fruits can also help cultivators break through and become Transcendents, after skipping the Heavenly Tribulation, with the external factors and the side effects of the divine fruits, the aptitude of the person who consumes them will drop significantly. Their combat strength will also be weaker among those of the same level. Unless they run into those juniors who are truly lacking in aptitude and can't support a wall, no one will eat them."
Su Ping was stunned.
"Do you have any Origin Fruit?"
"No," Joanna replied quickly and glanced at him. "I would've given it to you if I did."
Su Ping's heart was warmed.
He used a very fierce tone and expression, but his words were very gentle.
"What about the other divine fruits?" Su Ping said, "It doesn't matter if their aptitude is lowered. I can find those titled battle pet warriors who have no chance of reaching the legendary rank. They don't have the potential to do so anyway. The divine fruits are priceless for them."
"That's true."
Joanna nodded. "But I only have two of those fruits. After all, they're useless and I don't collect them."
"Two will do," Su Ping said at once.
Two was good enough.
He was able to create two legendary battle pet warriors, not because of their combat ability, but because of the number and level of the pets they could sign contracts with!
Legendary battle pet warriors at the Ocean State could sign Void State pets!
They could sign as many as eleven pets!
Two divine fruits meant that there were twenty-two of them!
The two legendary battle pet warriors he had created were like porters for the battle pets. What Su Ping needed to do was to have them sign contracts with battle pets so that the battle pets he trained could participate in the battles!
Twenty-two battle pets at the Void State would be as powerful as the twelve legendary battle pet warriors at the Void State from the Tower!
"Sure."
Since Su Ping was serious, Joanna didn't refuse. She didn't want the fruits anyway. Besides, she was becoming more and more like someone close to Su Ping.
"You'd better give the fruits to someone else. They won't do you any good." Joanna could see the eagerness in Su Ping's eyes. She was worried that he would lose his mind.
Su Ping was confused. "Why won't I use them?"
"This divine fruit is used to break through the last barrier. For someone like you who relied on this divine fruit to break through the barrier and become a Legend, not only will you suffer a huge loss, but it will also limit your future potential. Moreover, the divine fruit will only bring you a small improvement. Only those who are already weak will benefit greatly."
Joanna explained.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows and nodded. "I understand."
After hearing what Joanna said earlier, he didn't plan to eat the divine fruit. After all, it was equivalent to spoiling a seedling through excessive enthusiasm, and the side effects were too severe.
"Shall we go and get them now?"
"Right now."
Su Ping nodded. He communicated with the system and opened the Demigod Burial.
…
Half an hour later, a swirl appeared.
Su Ping and Joanna went back to the store.
Half an hour had passed outside, but half a day had passed inside.
"Have you thought about who you should give the fruits to?" Joanna asked Su Ping.
Su Ping thought about it and said, "I haven't decided yet. I'll think of a way."
He had to trust the people who would eat the fruits.
But he didn't have many titled battle pet warriors he could trust. He did know some titled battle pet warriors, such as Qin Shuhai from the Qin Family. But Qin Shuhai was quite talented. With the right opportunity, he might become a legendary battle pet warrior himself. Giving the fruits to Qin Shuhai would feel like cheating him.
