The competition between the Arcana companies was quite fierce. After all, everyone had the same profession, the same business, and the same business interests. Competition was inevitable.
In particular, the competition between Pangu, the world's number one, and Vulcan, the world's number two, was extremely fierce. They were like fire and water.
As soon as Ling Jiu, the captain of Pangu, finished speaking, Vulcan's captain, Yang Gan, immediately spoke up.
Ling Jiu glanced at him. "Don't worry, even if you are killed by the Direbeasts, you will die first!"
"You're young, but you talk big!"
Yang Gan, the bearded brawny man, sneered. "I really don't understand why Pangu would let a brat like you be the captain. Isn't he afraid of implicating two elite squads and letting them die without a burial place?"
"It's not your fault that you're ugly, but it's your fault for coming out and scaring people with your looks!" Ling Jiu retorted. I didn't do anything to provoke you, so why do you have to go against me?
"You have a death wish, kid!"
Yang Gan was furious. He hated people calling him ugly the most in his life.
Because of his ugliness, he was abandoned by his parents when the disaster broke out. If he had not awakened his Arcana in despair, he would have died long ago.
So, his looks were the biggest sore point of his life. Now that Ling Jiu had exposed it in front of everyone, how could he tolerate it?
"Alright, alright, cut it out!"
Xu Yuanhui came out to smooth things over. He looked at the bearded man and said, "Captain Yang, don't be fooled by Ling Jiu's young age. He is already a Level 4 Arcanist, and a Dual Arcanist at that. He is no weaker than you in terms of strength!"
"A Level 4 Arcanist!"
Yang Gan's expression changed dramatically. The other Arcanists who had planned to watch the show also changed their expressions as they looked at Ling Jiu with a little more awe.
Most of the people present were Level 3 Arcanists, and even many small companies had sent Level 2 Arcanists.
But Ling Jiu was a Level 4 Arcanist!
A higher rank could crush a person!
The strength of an Arcanist who was a level higher was not comparable at all!
A Level 4 Arcanist!
That was enough for them to look up to!
Not to mention a Dual Arcanist!
Watching a show of such a person?
They had to think it over!
"Since Commander Xu has said so, I will give you face!"
Yang Gan restrained his anger, but his face was still not looking good. He said coldly, "Kid, are you interested in a competition?"
"What competition?"
Ling Jiu cocked an eyebrow.
"To see who can kill more berserk beasts!"
Yang Gan coldly snorted and said, "If you hunted more fierce beasts than me, I'll apologize to you for my previous rudeness. Otherwise, you have to apologize to me! "
"I'm waiting for your apology!"
Ling Jiu smiled faintly.
"Just wait and see!"
Yang Gan snorted and looked at Xu Yuanhui. "Commander Xu, Vulcan wants the other Class 4 Direbeast horde!"
"No problem!"
Xu Yuan was overjoyed in his heart. This was the kind of healthy competition he wanted to see. Everyone risked their lives together and cleared out the beasts as soon as possible.
The airship traveled along the safe passage, dropping off a group of Arcanists whenever it came to a place with a Direbeast.
An hour later, they finally arrived at Dragon Spring Town.
"Captain Ling, we've arrived at Dragon Spring Town!"
Xu Yuanhui said, "Your mission is to clean up all the ferocious beasts within a hundred miles of Dragon Spring Town. Once you're done, we'll come and pick you up!"
"No problem!"
…
Dragon Spring Town was surrounded by mountains, and the mountains were covered with towering trees and lush plants. Coupled with the dilapidated buildings and streets, it felt like a lost ancient city.
"Brother Chen, where is the Class 4 Direbeast horde?" Ling Jiu looked at Chen Feng.
"We're in the southeast corner of Dragon Spring Town, and the Class 4 Direbeast horde happens to be in the northwest corner, more than 30 miles away!" Chen Feng replied.
"Let's go, kill all the way!"
Ling Jiu ordered.
"Yes, Captain Ling!"
"Woof!"
Not long after, two big dogs suddenly jumped out of the jungle in front of them.
They were four meters tall and more than seven meters long. Their fangs were exposed, and their eyes were fierce.
"Be careful, it's the Class 3 Mountain-Piercing Mastiff!"
Huang Hailong shouted, and the members of the two squads immediately raised their vigilance, then took out their weapons and carefully surrounded them. They must not be careless in the face of Class 3 Direbeasts!
However, before they could get close, two big hands suddenly fell from the sky, and with a crack, the screams stopped abruptly. The two Mountain-Piercing Mastiffs were directly smashed into meat paste by the big hands.
"Keep going!"
Ling Jiu put away the bodies of the Mountain-Piercing Mastiffs and continued to kill. Chen Feng and the others looked at each other in shock.
They were all Class 3 wilderness squads, and they usually hunted Class 3 Direbeasts. They would be careful in the face of any Class 3 Direbeast.
How could it be like this?
Killing two Class 3 Direbeasts with one slap was too easy!
"You think you can do whatever you want just because you're one level stronger?"
"Seems like you can really do whatever you want!"
"Don't be sarcastic, hurry up and keep up!"
In the following time, the two squads really realized what it meant to do whatever they wanted.
Ling Jiu opened the way in front, and be it Class 2 or Class 3 Direbeasts, he killed them with one slap.
It only took them an hour to kill from the southeast corner of Dragon Spring Town to the northwest corner of the Class 4 Direbeast horde, killing more than 300 Class 3 Direbeasts along the way.
"300 Class 3 Direbeasts!"
"I'm not dreaming, am I?"
"We might not be able to kill so many Class 3 Direbeasts even after a few months in the wilderness, but today it only took us an hour!"
"And, it's unprecedentedly easy!"
"Yeah, there's no need to be on tenterhooks, and no need to be cautious. All we need to do is push forward. Is this what a Level 4 Arcanist is like?"
"I've been a Wild Hunter for almost ten years, and I've never felt so relaxed like today!"
"Yeah..."
The team members were amazed, and they looked at Ling Jiu with even more awe.
This was Captain Ling, killing Class 3 Direbeasts like slaughtering pigs and dogs. He could do whatever he wanted in a dangerous wilderness like Dragon Spring Town. He was just too awesome!
"Everyone, pay attention!"
Ling Jiu said. "The Class 4 Direbeast horde not far away seems to be a group of ant-like Direbeasts. Looking at the species... it seems to be Greatmaw Ants!"
"What?"
"Greatmaw Ants!!!"
The team members were stunned at first, and then shocked as their expressions changed. "Captain Ling, is this Class 4 Direbeast horde really a Greatmaw Ant horde?"
"It should be!"
Ling Jiu nodded slightly. "There are about 3,000 of them, seven or eight of them are Class 4 Greatmaw Ants, and the rest are Class 3!"
"It's actually Greatmaw Ants. We're done for. Let's retreat!"
"Greatmaw Ants, how are we going to kill them?"
"Captain Ling, why don't we retreat?"
The team members' faces were pale, and they could not hide the fear in their eyes. Among all the Direbeasts, ant-like Direbeasts were the most difficult to deal with. Generally, ant-like Direbeasts had the following three characteristics:
First, terrifying numbers!
Second, extraordinary strength!
Third, invincible defense!
As the best of the Class 4 ant-like Direbeasts, the most terrifying thing about the Greatmaw Ants was not their numbers, strength, and defense, but... speed!
The Greatmaw Ants were the fastest Class 4 Direbeasts in terms of attack speed. They were as fast as lightning and as fast as thunder, and their biting speed was unparalleled.
They could bite their prey in 0.13 milliseconds, 2,300 times faster than a human's blink. It was ridiculously fast!
In the face of such a group of powerful, numerous, strong defense, and fast attack Class 4 Direbeasts, they would usually take a detour when they saw them.
