The terrifying roar and collapse lasted for nearly half an hour. The rising smoke and dust almost covered half of the sky. Even the light of the morning sun was almost annihilated. It took a long time for the light to return to normal.
Looking at such a shocking attack, Sheyan concluded that the explosion must have been caused by the contestants who had just arrived. However, such a powerful attack did not affect Sheyan much, because it was obvious that such an attack was definitely not a normal attack. If such a power could be used so casually, what would the other contestants do?
Therefore, it was not difficult to deduce that to use such a power, it had to be a powerful single-use item. Otherwise, they would have to pay a huge price. Or rather, it could be a combination of both.
Therefore, it was not difficult to deduce that the person who used such a power must have encountered great trouble. Otherwise, why would they use such a trump card at the beginning of the battle?
"What kind of damned information is this?!"
Sheyan could not help swearing. Based on the current situation, it was obvious that choosing the mushroom rock as the rendezvous point was a mistake. There was probably a great danger nearby. If they all rushed there, it would be the most taboo tactic of adding fuel to the fire. They would take turns delivering themselves to the enemy's doorstep.
For example, if there were about a hundred Cockatrices near the mushroom rock, Sheyan would have no choice but to run away as soon as he saw them.
If it were a contestant with high intelligence who was not familiar with the Cockatrices, they would die very quickly if they were surrounded. The same applied to Zi!
The main reason was that this damned creature's ability was too powerful. Once they had an advantage in numbers, the quantitative change would often lead to a qualitative change.
Time passed quickly. Soon, the sunflowers began to grow and wither. The conditions were ripe for Sheyan to leave.
While Sheyan was hesitating whether to go to the mushroom rock or not, he suddenly saw a thick brownish-red smoke billowing from the west. It rose into the sky and lingered there for a long time. It was obvious that it was a smoke signal made by igniting damp leaves and adding a special smoke agent to it.
Sheyan observed that the source of the smoke was roughly 7-8 kilometres away from here. Furthermore, it was convenient to escape in such a terrain. He immediately rushed towards the source of the smoke.
At their current speed, it would not take them too long to cover the distance, but after about two or three kilometers, the huge Ramtas suddenly lowered its body and sniffed its nostrils. It then raised its crude staff high and smashed it hard on the ground.
A faint green light wave rapidly spread out in all directions with the point of impact as the center. Wherever the light wave swept, the grasses and shrubs within seven to eight meters all lay on the ground obediently, making one think of hair that had been meticulously combed. Then, several strange huge footprints were revealed in the moist soil.
From the footprints, it could be seen that the owner of the footprints was obviously a behemoth that walked on all fours, cleverly concealing its body while tailing its prey. Ramtas then picked up a thick curly hair from a nearby bush. The hair was greyish-green in colour and had a metallic lustre on its surface.
When Cyborg No. 1 saw the hair, he walked over and carefully examined it for a while.
"Master, this should be a Ferocious Beast."
He paused for a moment before continuing.
"A very powerful Ferocious Beast."
When talking about Ferocious Beasts, one would have to talk about species invasions. When human beings first started the interstellar colonization, there was an explosion of science and technology. Billions of humans crazily occupied the Solar System like a plague, then spread in all directions at an astonishing speed, just like the frenzy of discovering new continents during the age of discovery.
During this process, it was inevitable that the native species on Earth would be spread to various planets in the universe. This was because it was very difficult to find a natural enemy in an instant, so this was an amazing and unpredictable way of life. Take some controllable species invasions on Earth as an example:
The carnivorous Rapanathomasiana migrated from the Sea of Japan to the Black Sea in 1947. Ten years later, they had almost completely wiped out the oysters on Tawta Beach in the Black Sea.
The hairy crabs in Germany were rampant, causing hundreds of millions of dollars in losses.
The number of hares in Australia exceeded 600 million, and the grasslands they destroyed severely squeezed the living space of more than 40 million goats and sheep. The government suffered heavy economic losses because of this.
When the creatures on Earth migrated to the vast universe, they first had to face radiation such as cosmic rays and solar wind, and then they had to adapt to the local environment and evolve.
During this series of evolutions, the Ferocious Beasts were born.
These Ferocious Beasts inherited the characteristics of the creatures on Earth, but they became more ferocious, more difficult to deal with, bigger in size, and stronger in attack power. The most striking characteristic of the Ferocious Beasts was that, unless they died, their combat power would constantly increase as they were injured!
The group continued to move forward. As more and more creatures were discovered, Cyborg No. 1 gave them a series of accurate data.
"This is a Ferocious Wolverine. It has grown to 20 feet long and weighs 3,500 pounds."
"According to the offline database, the teeth of the Ferocious Wolverine are as sharp as razors. There have been incidents where it effortlessly gnawed through the armour of Marines, so it should be possible to determine that it has the biological ability to ignore defence."
"If a Ferocious Beast is injured in battle, it will not run away. Instead, it will enter a Ferocious Mode and gain a 25% increase in all attributes. If it is in a state where it cannot attack any enemy (such as in an iron cage), it will self-harm until it dies."
"The first strike of this Ferocious Wolverine usually has a strong collision force. It has even knocked down a medium-sized mech with a single strike. Its impact force is no less than that of an ordinary tank, so the creatures it ambushes will often lose their balance and fall to the ground. Then, they will have to face its teeth and sharp claws."
"The Ferocious Wolverine's terrifying sense of smell allows it to easily track its prey from two kilometers away, which is often the prey's blind spot."
"… …"
Sheyan could not help but feel a chill down his spine when he read this series of information. He vigilantly looked around to see if there were any Ferocious Beasts following him. The Ferocious Wolverine's attack method was simply too ferocious. It was simple, effective, and fatal! And that crazy biological ability of 'Ignore Defence'!!
This was not the ability that MTs hated the most. In fact, the other contestants hated this ability even more, because MTs had more HP to protect their own lives in addition to their defence. Now that their defence had been "ignored", what else could they do other than resign themselves to fate?
***
Very soon, the group discovered a bonfire that was still emitting green smoke. The area of the bonfire was at least ten square meters. It seemed like the surrounding trees were all chopped down to make it. The bonfire was confirmed to have been mixed with the alliance's special smoke agent, which meant that it couldn't have been impersonated by the local aborigines. There were a lot of messy footprints around the fire. It looked like the Ferocious Beasts were in a panic.
Ramtas' nostrils twitched a few times, and it let out a sharp snort. It raised its staff and knocked on the ground again. The dense vegetation immediately fell to the ground again. The vegetation parted to the left and right, forming a straight line towards the bushes at the side, where half of a severed limb could be seen.
At first glance, it was obvious that the stump belonged to an Android. The section was incomplete, and there were sparse wires and so on. The milky white nutrient liquid dripped and soaked into the soil. A group of big-headed red ants seemed to be very interested in this brand-new liquid and had already gathered around it.
Cyborg No. 1 walked over, picked up the arm, and took a look at it.
"It was broken in one blow, master. It seems that this cyborg got in the way of the Ferocious Wolverine."
Sheyan nodded. The cyborgs assigned to them this time were marked as having "special purposes". The strength of their limbs was manufactured according to the highest standards, but even so, they were still severed in one blow. It seemed that the Ferocious Wolverine's ability to ignore defence was quite powerful.
Cyborg No. 1 held the severed limb and said to Sheyan, "Master, I don't want to take your property.
[Master, I have no intention of embezzling your lawful gains, but there is a 1.14% chance that you will bring this severed limb back as a spoil of war. The value of this limb is 214 utility points. If you reward us with this spoil of war, we can save you 4,000 utility points in repair costs, as well as enough manpower at critical moments. Can you give it to us as a reward? "
Looking at Cyborg No. 1's straight body and the other two cyborgs who had already begun to carefully collect the dripping nutrient liquid, a strange and cold-blooded feeling welled up in Sheyan's heart. The cyborgs were indeed doing this for his sake, but their way of doing things made him feel rather uncomfortable, as if he was facing a heartless ghoul.
Fortunately, Sheyan quickly restrained his emotions. He would not let the negative emotions that occasionally welled up in him affect his calm judgment just because of the remains of an ordinary cyborg. He nodded.
"Your request has been approved."
Soon, Sheyan and the others found a corpse nearby. To be precise, it was the corpse of the owner of the severed arm. (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
