As the sky in the land of Divine Prefecture gradually darkened.
Everyone's mood gradually became tense.
It was as if the darkness was bringing fear little by little.
But what people were afraid of was not the darkness, but the coming war.
Most people had already stayed with their families in the underground shelters in the city. A large number of people had already gathered here, but there were very few voices of conversation.
Only some whispers could be heard.
"Can we defend our city?"
"It should be fine."
"It's hard to say. What's the use of a thirty-meter-high wall? That exotic beast will pounce in."
"Didn't the news say that this high wall is only used to block long-range attacks?"
"That's right. Besides, we have Gu Yan here."
"Master Gu Yan is really amazing. The first batch of Transcendents directly surpassed the Guru level. The most powerful person in the world now should be Master Gu Yan."
"Yiran is amazing! My goddess is even more beautiful than before after becoming an Transcendent! "
“.....”
As early as two days ago, after Transcendents made their first appearance around the world, the Guru Association had officially announced the existence of Transcendents.
They did not explain further.
They only said that only outstanding martial artists could step into the Transcendents. At the same time, they recruited a group of outstanding martial artists from the army.
It triggered all kinds of conjectures.
However, for most ordinary people, it did not affect them much if a martial arts master became an extraordinaire. Although some people were worried that the power and status of extraordinaires would expand further, this was how the world was before the advent of modern weapons.
Moreover, at the moment when exotic beasts appeared.
Transcendents were a kind of power that was strong enough to fight with exotic beasts head-on.
It brought a sense of peace to people.
The worship and yearning for Transcendents also gradually spread throughout society.
This was especially true in the army.
At this moment, in addition to the people who were temporarily taking refuge in the city, on the city wall, rows of soldiers were nervously looking outside the city wall.
Huiping City was a city built in the mountains.
It was surrounded by mountains.
Wild beasts often appeared, so martial arts were relatively prosperous.
But now.
Under the dusk, those mountains were like a man-eating monster.
No one knew when the enemy would appear.
Zhuo Gang was also watching nervously.
He had no weapon in his hand. The untrained recruits were not issued weapons. They were just arranged to watch the battle on the new city wall.
Although they were just watching the battle.
But it was obvious.
It was still very dangerous here.
Once the exotic beasts' long-range attacks hit the city walls, they would be dead for sure.
Facing danger head-on and experiencing the terror of the battlefield was what they really needed to train.
And at this moment.
"Roar —!"
A thunderous roar came from the mountain.
It was an exotic beast!
A few timid recruits even trembled under the high tension and sat down on the ground.
Then, he quickly blushed and hurriedly stood up.
But no one laughed at them.
The scene was extremely quiet.
Zhuo Gang's palms were sweating.
At this time, he really hoped that he had a weapon in his hand. Even if it was a useless weapon, it might not give him a sense of security, but it could give him a fighting spirit.
"There's nothing to be afraid of." A voice suddenly sounded.
Zhuo Gang and many of the recruits turned their heads abruptly.
It was Gu Yan!
Gu Yan was not the only one. The fifteen superhumans, including Yu Jing, who had been severely burned two days ago, were already standing there. Their bodies were covered in bandages, but they were still wearing their battle armor and carrying a large saber.
"Exotic beasts aren't monsters that can't be killed. They're just a group of powerful wild beasts. They can feel fear, feel pain, and be killed just like us!" Gu Yan's heavy voice reverberated in the silent night.
It was also when he said this sentence.
The sun on the horizon had completely set.
The night came.
However, the fifteen people in front of them emitted a faint light as if they had become a new sun. They could not illuminate the darkness, but they could expel fear.
"Victory!"
It was unknown who shouted.
It was as if it had become the beginning.
Countless people began to shout.
The voices grew louder and louder.
It was as if they were going to cover the roars coming from the mountain!
Humans would fear death and war, but they would not be lambs at the mercy of others. When anger, fighting spirit, courage, and all of these gathered together, humans would also burst out with a strong will that even surpassed fear.
The silver-white moonlight gradually covered the entire world.
Armed helicopters flew over the city wall one after another.
Gu Yan pulled out his long saber and shouted loudly,
"Victory!"
Then, he leaped into a military helicopter with a faint light.
The other transcendents jumped in one after another.
Yu Jing, who was wrapped in bandages, even laughed loudly. His laughter was filled with endless carefreeness and fighting spirit.
Zhuo Gang watched the armed helicopter fly away under the moonlight. He was so excited that his face was red and his whole body was trembling.
At this moment.
Not only him.
Many people hoped that they could be one of these fifteen people and step into the battlefield together!
"Raise the altitude," Gu Yan said in the armed helicopter, "What's the result of the thermal imaging detection?"
"The moment the moon rose, the number of exotic beasts in the nearby mountains increased to six." The voice of the command center came from the command channel. After a pause, he changed his words. "No, it's seven now."
"It's not serious," Gu Yan said.
According to the information from the commissioner, there were about seven to eight thousand exotic beasts around the world tonight.
If they were scattered across the land of China, there would be at most two to three thousand of them.
If all of them used heavy weapons to fight, it would be a huge consumption.
However, if the transcendents were added.
It seemed that it was not impossible to completely resist the exotic beasts.
But Gu Yan took out his jade token.
"Senior Clove," Gu Yan said respectfully, "requesting battlefield information support."
"At present, a total of ten exotic beasts are gathering. Their target is Huiping City." Clove gave a different information.
"Ten?" The command channel also heard this news. "But my thermal imaging here is indeed only seven."
The monster's huge body could be seen clearly in the thermal imaging.
It was clear and would not be missed.
"There are three more. They are not one of the three types that you have classified." Clove's voice was very calm. "At the beginning of the mutation, most of the mutated beasts were four-legged mammals. But from tonight onwards, there will be more mutations. Of the three additional exotic beasts, two are snake mutations, and the last one is in the sky."
