Although there were deaths, the Diamond Apes didn't stop. They continued to move forward, and along the way, people kept falling. However, the pride of the Royal Beastmen made the Diamond Apes not shrink back. While they buried their loved ones, they continued to move forward and began their journey of death.
This scene made Zhao Hai feel shocked. The Diamond Apes were worthy of being the most powerful Beastman race. They had this kind of strength and determination, it was truly amazing.
Laura and the others were also shocked. They couldn't believe that a race could have this kind of obsession. They knew that they were going to die, but they still didn't hesitate to move forward. This kind of spirit was too precious.
Zhao Hai's expression was calm as he controlled the Magic Staff to move forward. The number of Diamond Ape corpses he received was increasing. Zhao Hai no longer had any thoughts of turning these corpses into undead. He wanted to bring them back to the Prairie and bury them. They originally belonged to the Prairie, so they should return there. They also had the qualifications to return there.
Ten days, it has been ten days since Zhao Hai found the first Diamond Ape corpse. And in these ten days, Zhao Hai had received more than ten thousand Diamond Ape corpses. Most of these Diamond Ape corpses were old people and children.
Zhao Hai didn't need to go anywhere else. The Diamond Ape corpses were like road signs. Zhao Hai didn't need to go the wrong way, he just needed to follow the direction of the corpses.
One month, Zhao Hai had been flying forward for an entire month. And in this month, Zhao Hai had received nearly five hundred thousand Diamond Ape corpses. This number wasn't small.
In the Beastman Race, the population of a large Beastman Race would be around a million. For a Warring Race like the Tiger Race, their population might be smaller. The more powerful a race was, the more difficult it would be for them to reproduce. On the other hand, for a weaker race, their fertility rate would be astonishing.
The Diamond Apes were the Royal Race of the Beastmen. Their fertility couldn't be too strong, so their population couldn't be too large. But now, Zhao Hai had received more than five hundred thousand corpses. In the beginning, most of these corpses were old people and children. But now, there were almost no old people and children in sight. Instead, they were mostly young and strong men and women.
One must know that although it took Zhao Hai a lot of time to collect the corpses, he was still able to move faster than people in the Ice Field. It took him more than a month to collect the corpses. One can imagine how long it would take for the Diamond Apes to walk outside. Moreover, they didn't stop at all along the way, all the way until their deaths. How much perseverance did they have to have? Zhao Hai didn't dare to imagine it.
Zhao Hai found it hard to imagine how the Diamond Apes managed to survive in this place. They were able to go so deep into the Icefield, this showed how tyrannical their race was.
After three days, Zhao Hai suddenly saw a black dot in the distance. He immediately zoomed in on the monitor. When he looked at it, Zhao Hai's spirit shook. This was because he discovered that it was a mountain. A mountain wasn't strange, but what surprised Zhao Hai was the fact that there were trees growing on it. Green trees!
This wasn't a rare sight in the continent, but seeing it here made Zhao Hai surprised. What was this place? This was the Icefield of the North. Besides ice and snow, there was almost nothing here. Who would've thought that there would be a mountain here, and there were even trees growing on it.
Zhao Hai excitedly commanded his staff to fly towards the mountain. But at the same time, he was also collecting the corpses of the Diamond Apes. At this time, the number of Diamond Ape corpses he collected had already reached 700,000.
Because of the corpses, it took Zhao Hai more than two hours to reach the mountain. At the same time, Zhao Hai also discovered that there weren't any Diamond Ape corpses around the mountain.
This discovery made Zhao Hai very excited. He didn't think that the Diamond Apes were all dead. The fact that there were trees on the mountain meant that the temperature was suitable for people to live in. It was very likely that there were still survivors of the Diamond Apes on the mountain. And the fact that there were no corpses around the mountain meant that the corpses had already been collected by the survivors.
After thinking about this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but get excited. He immediately looked at the mountain on the monitor. He wanted to know what kind of power could make the mountain grow trees in the Icefield of the North.
Zhao Hai carefully looked at the mountain and couldn't help but have an excited expression on his face. This was because he discovered a small path at the corner of the mountain. It was obvious that this path was made by people. Moreover, it seems like this path was frequently used by people.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but get excited. He immediately came out of the Space and transformed his staff into a shuttle before he flew towards the mountain.
When he came out, he could clearly feel that the temperature of the mountain was very high. It was just like the temperature of spring in the continent. No wonder the trees could grow here, it was actually very warm.
The closer he got to the top, the higher the temperature. Moreover, the traces of human activity became more obvious. There were a lot of roads here, but Zhao Hai still hasn't seen a single person.
When Zhao Hai was halfway up the mountain, he suddenly froze. This was because he saw a city, a stone wall. Although it wasn't very high, it was still built by people.
What made Zhao Hai even more excited was the fact that there were people on the wall. Zhao Hai immediately opened the monitor and saw that there were indeed people on the wall. They were Diamond Apes wearing leather armor.
Zhao Hai flashed into the Space and used the monitor to carefully look at the city. The city wasn't very big, it could probably house less than 100 thousand people. The walls of the city were made of large stones. They were less than 20 meters high and 10 meters thick. On the wall, there were some Diamond Apes wearing leather armor. Every Diamond Ape was accompanied by a 10 meter tall Diamond Ape. These Diamond Apes were either sitting or lying down, they looked very honest. However, Zhao Hai didn't doubt their fighting strength.
What made Zhao Hai surprised was that the weapons used by these Diamond Apes were all made of wood, there wasn't a single iron weapon.
Their weapons were thick wooden sticks. These sticks weren't any thinner than Zhao Hai's arm. Moreover, they looked black and shiny. One could see that they were very sturdy.
What made Zhao Hai pay attention to the most was that these Diamond Apes were very nervous. Two of them were looking outside, as if they were facing a great enemy. This made Zhao Hai feel strange. He didn't understand why these Diamond Apes were so nervous. Could it be that there were enemies on the mountain? Even if there were enemies, the Diamond Apes shouldn't be afraid of them.
Zhao Hai also noticed that there was no gate on the wall. All of the walls were tightly built, there was no way out.
Zhao Hai was puzzled as he looked at this layout. Even if these Diamond Apes had the Giant Apes to carry them in and out of the stone city, not leaving a gate would be too inconvenient. Why would they do this?
Zhao Hai carefully looked at the walls. He discovered that there were a lot of battle marks on the walls. These marks were very strange. Some of them looked like they were made by wild beasts, while others looked like they were made by swords. This made Zhao Hai very puzzled.
Zhao Hai looked at the stone houses in the city. They were all two-story buildings. The lower floor seemed to be prepared for the Giant Apes. There were some hay inside, while the upper floor was for people to live in. However, most of them were made of stone and wood.
The small town was very lively. Many children of the Diamond Ape tribe were running around in the streets. Some women of the Diamond Ape tribe were making leather armor. Old men were repairing some wooden sticks. Looking at the appearance of those sticks, it was obvious that they were their weapons. There were also some children of the right age who were practicing martial arts under the guidance of adults. It was a very lively scene.
Zhao Hai looked at the mountain again. He discovered that there were some Magic Beasts on the mountain. These Magic Beasts looked like Blue Eyed Rabbits, but they were bigger than Blue Eyed Rabbits. They were almost as big as pigs. There were a lot of these Magic Beasts. Moreover, it was clear that these Magic Beasts were being raised by people. They were surrounded by wooden fences.
Looking at the mountain, Zhao Hai finally understood why there were trees here. It was because there was a volcano here, and it was an active volcano. Hot air was coming out of the crater at the top of the mountain.
It was precisely because the heat of the volcano dispelled the cold air that the Diamond Apes were able to survive here. It seems like the heavens didn't want the Diamond Apes to die.
However, Zhao Hai could also see that the Diamond Ape tribe had suffered a great loss. The entire tribe only had about 100 thousand people left, and this included the old and the weak. Moreover, it seems like they had encountered some troublesome enemies. Otherwise, the guards wouldn't be so nervous. Zhao Hai couldn't help but sigh.
Zhao Hai carefully looked at the mountain. The area of this volcano was very large. There were a lot of traces of human activity in this place. Moreover, it wasn't just a single peak, it was actually made up of 13 peaks. The Diamond Ape tribe's peak was only in the periphery. There were very few traces of human activity in the inner peaks.
Zhao Hai carefully looked at the peaks and understood why there were very few people there. It was too hot, and the plants there were all fire element Magic Plants. Most importantly, the volcano was very unstable. Two of the peaks were still emitting black smoke, it seemed like they would erupt at any time.
However, it wasn't like there weren't any living creatures in the mountains. Zhao Hai also found some fire element Magic Beasts. However, looking at the appearance of these Magic Beasts, their levels weren't very high. It was clear that these Magic Beasts weren't the main opponents of the Diamond Apes.
After looking at the mountains, Zhao Hai decided to meet the Diamond Apes and inquire about the specific situation. If they found the Beast God's Spear, then that would be good. If they didn't, then he would have to go to the Icefield to look for it.
