The level eight and seven subterranean exotic beasts on the outskirts were all staring at the mutated level six subterranean exotic beast. At the same time, their auras were also undergoing minute changes.
If they were said to be calm and there weren't any abnormalities earlier, they were now retracting their auras and concealing themselves. If ordinary beasts or humans purposely retracted their auras and hid their existence, they were either preparing to hunt, or preparing to do something else.
However, they didn't make a move immediately. It seemed like they were waiting for something.
"The other high-grade subterranean exotic beasts are retracting their auras. They are preparing to make a move." The spectators from afar also noticed the changes in the high-grade exotic beasts.
"But they seem to be waiting for an opportunity."
"What are they waiting for? Are they waiting for the result of the advancing level six exotic beast's advancement? "
"Perhaps that's the case. Perhaps there's something else going on."
Everyone started guessing the various possibilities regarding this situation.
While the humans at the base were observing the situation, the high-grade subterranean exotic beasts were watching the exotic beasts slaughtering each other, seemingly waiting for an opportunity to appear.
Qian Xiaoai and the others vaguely felt that there wouldn't be any sudden developments so soon, but they were sure something special would appear later on.
Sure enough, they waited for three to four days.
Before the first subterranean exotic beast succeeded in advancing to level six, other exotic beasts appeared. Their levels varied, ranging from level six to level three or four, and so on.
The high-grade subterranean exotic beasts were finally no longer watching quietly from the sidelines, because they were starting to take action.
For example, a level four subterranean exotic beast was in the process of advancing, and a level five subterranean exotic beast suddenly appeared from the side to attack it. At that moment, one of the level seven and eight exotic beasts watching from the outskirts suddenly leaped down, instantly pouncing at the level five subterranean exotic beast that was preparing to ambush it.
The moment the level five exotic beast made its move, it attracted the attention of the other high-grade subterranean exotic beasts. As such, with a difference of two levels, the speed, strength, and precise reactions of a level seven subterranean exotic beast were much stronger than a level five subterranean exotic beast.
Before the level five ambush could succeed, the high-tier subterranean exotic beast pounced on him and pressed him under its claws, biting him to death before he could react.
Just like that, the level 7 subterranean exotic beast that was bitten to death didn't eat it. Instead, it left it there and turned to leave.
Very soon, this level five subterranean exotic beast would be picked up by the other exotic beasts that had no opponents yet and eaten it.
From this, it could be seen that the high-grade subterranean exotic beasts seemed to be doing their job of maintaining order. Of course, they probably didn't just come here for this. There might be other things.
While the Humans were guessing the intentions of the high-level Underworld creatures, a Level Advancement Creature finally appeared.
That piece of land was already covered in desolation and had been destroyed to the point of being in a complete mess. The thick smell of blood permeated the air, and the roars of the beasts were still noisy and crisscrossed.
The one that had advanced wasn't the first level-six subterranean exotic beast, but a level-five. It successfully advanced to level six. Its aura suddenly grew stronger, and its body began to stretch and grow larger amidst a wave of cracking sounds.
Soon, it entered the ranks of the level six subterranean exotic beasts. However, it didn't continue to join in the slaughter. Instead, it turned around and quickly left the area.
The high-grade exotic beasts didn't stop it, either, and left with it.
However, after the other level five subterranean exotic beast failed to advance, its aura turned chaotic, and it couldn't control itself. Following that, the energy in its body began to contract and expand, contracting and expanding. This meant that its advancement had failed. What would happen next was an energy explosion, followed by death.
The energy explosion wouldn't blow up their entire bodies, but it would deform them a little.
After this level five subterranean exotic beast failed to advance, the surrounding level five and six subterranean exotic beasts that had been waiting for an opportunity immediately rushed up. Another round of chaos couldn't be avoided, no matter who came first.
However, such a situation was allowed. The high-grade subterranean exotic beasts wouldn't appear to stop them.
However, when a level six subterranean creature failed to advance, the surrounding subterranean creatures didn't dare to rush up to snatch it. In any case, they wouldn't be able to snatch it even if they rushed up, because there would be a level seven subterranean exotic beast faster than them.
The surrounding level seven subterranean exotic beasts seemed to be waiting for this moment, while the level eight subterranean exotic beasts didn't make a move. However, there weren't many level eight subterranean exotic beasts here, only a tenth of the level seven subterranean exotic beasts.
The level six subterranean exotic beasts that successfully advanced to level seven didn't leave like the level five subterranean exotic beasts that advanced to level six. They would flash to the edge of the battlefield and continue watching.
"Doesn't that mean they can only advance to level seven at most? Don't these level seven subterranean exotic beasts advance using the same method as the others? "Luo Yuanjun asked doubtfully after watching for a few days.
"Maybe Level Seven is a special level, and it'll change to another method to advance. But this method is definitely the same as killing each other. After all, even if they eat a level seven or eight mutated beast on the surface, they won't advance, "Li Yueshan said from the side.
"Is this considered internal consumption? I thought these things had no natural enemies and would continue wreaking havoc on Earth's surface like this. In less than ten years, the entire Earth will become a dead planet. "Qian Xiao Ai said with some emotion.
Although their base and Haicheng had recently been researching a type of herb that was very effective against these subterranean creatures, with the number of these darn things, even if humans had an effective herb against them, it would take decades to eliminate all of them. After a few decades, who knew how many mutated plants, mutated beasts, zombies, and so on would be left on Earth.
After considering the future of the entire Earth, the appearance of these things was even more terrifying than the zombies that not only ate humans, but also their own kind.
After all, zombies only ate humans, they wouldn't eat plants.
If even plants were gone, then the various food chains on Earth would only enter a broken state. If this continued for a long time, wouldn't Earth really be finished?
