Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 3920 - 3939: Invasion of the Foreign Beasts
Lin Chen and the group were quite melancholy.
Previously encountering Zhang Hongjiu, everyone subconsciously thought all Federation high-level martial warriors were that formidable, but it turns out they are not.
If Lin Chen and the group faced an ordinary purification team, even if they possess the strength of a seventh-level warrior, our group can’t defeat them, we could still run; but encountering Zhang Zhongjiu, they don’t even dare to try to escape.
Zhang Zhongjiu single-handedly easily took out the Heavenly Demon Venerable, most importantly possessing the wormhole jumping ability, scaring the people into being immobilized, obediently following him back to the Federation.
Turns out, it’s not that we are too weak, but that our luck was too unfortunate, encountering a rare elite!
According to Luo Zheng, there are not many warriors in the entire Federation like Zhang Zhongjiu who possess the wormhole jumping ability, so isn’t he a rare elite?
Our group sure is unlucky!
But looking back, this incident may not necessarily be a bad thing.
Although they were captured like slaves and brought to the Federation, they have thereby learned about the situation beyond the "Universe" and understood the truth about "purification."
Currently, they indeed can’t do anything, even their freedom hasn’t been restored, but at least they already know the truth, perhaps they can save some people rather than everyone being directly wiped out in purification.
Not to mention helping others, at least now Lin Chen has already secured an opportunity to help our own.
This time returning with the Science Council’s scientific expedition team, Lin Chen will certainly bring his important relatives out.
He still has some confidence in himself, he believes our group will definitely make a name for themselves in the Federation.
Anyway, now their strength is comparable to that of sixth-level warriors, while not considered top-tier, on Planet 49, they are already regarded as capable experts; with some more effort, finding a place to settle a group is not difficult.
Lin Chen has researched the Federation’s law, which has a complete set of laws for non-Federation residents; as long as our group has someone strong enough, they can offer significant protection to many people.
This is like how Zhang Zhongjiu brought our group back, and our group became his personal property, with the condition of obtaining official acknowledgment.
If only I were stronger, becoming a seventh or even eighth-level warrior, the status would be extraordinary, wanting to acquire official recognition would be simple, wouldn’t it?
The first two days of the journey were peaceful and uneventful.
On the third day, Lin Chen could clearly feel the atmosphere in the team suddenly became much tenser, Sun Lei and others subconsciously looked at the screen more frequently.
Lin Chen asked, "Is there something going on?"
Sun Lei glanced at the screen and then explained, "Nothing major, but we’re approaching the Black River Valley soon, need to be cautious of foreign beast attacks."
Lin Chen suddenly realized, "I’ve only seen foreign beasts in shadow images, never actually seen them."
Sun Lei bitterly smiled and said, "These things are not good, we would rather never encounter them in a lifetime; after all, foreign beasts are brutally violent, their attack methods vary greatly, a slight mistake may lead to death."
Lan Shuiying asked, "As an adventure team, you must frequently deal with foreign beasts, right?"
Sun Lei glanced at the screen again, seeing nothing changed, he replied, "We’ve indeed dealt with many, but our team is relatively weak, the areas we frequent are relatively safer ones, in such areas even if foreign beasts appear, their strength wouldn’t be too high."
"The Black River Valley was once a heavy disaster zone of foreign beast infestation, because beneath it lies a maze of the Underground World, with numerous foreign beasts residing underground; moreover, there are many special mineral veins underground here, these foreign beasts consume and absorb them, becoming increasingly troublesome."
"Previously, foreign beasts rampaged through here, even seventh-level warriors dared not come alone, one slight mistake and they could die here; later, the situation became more severe, threatening the surrounding safety, then Planet 49 applied and eventually a fleet arrived."
"The fleet commander is an eighth-level peak martial warrior, he led the fleet and plowed through the entire region; he personally infiltrated the Underground World, slaughtering all around, wiping out the foreign beasts completely, and this region remained stable for a long time."
"Recently, incidents of foreign beast attacks on passing merchant ships re-emerged in this area, and the foreign beasts appearing have grown stronger, the region faced potential loss of control again."
"Our transport team, crossing this large area, easily disturbs foreign beasts, drawing their attacks, which is why previously I dared not take on the task; after all, real battle breaks out, whether those sixth-level warriors survive or not I don’t know, but our probability of mortality is extremely high."
Lin Chen said with a laugh, "If something happens, we can always run for our lives. Don’t worry, we may not be as strong as Zhang Zhongjiu, but we have a knack for escaping."
Lin Chen wasn’t exaggerating, their star sky jumping ability, while not comparable to Zhang Zhongjiu’s and the Purifiers’ wormhole jumping, is, nevertheless, an extremely formidable Great Divine Power.
On the same planet, star sky jumping is considered a divine skill.
No matter how formidable foreign beasts are, they can’t seal space, obstructing star sky jumping, right?
Can’t beat them, just run away!
Sun Lei said gratefully, "Really thank you, if we can successfully complete the task and receive the reward this time, perhaps we can help Luo Zheng promote to a sixth-level warrior, then the situation of the Rose Squad will improve quite a bit."
The people continued forward, at noon, the communication device suddenly emitted a sharp alarm.
"Foreign beasts detected, teams draw closer to the transport ship and prepare for battle."
The group was startled, Sun Lei’s face was bitter, "Sure enough, we’ve encountered foreign beasts."
Luo Zheng, however, was enthusiastic, "We have many sixth-level warriors, there shouldn’t be a problem; if foreign beasts attack, we kill them and get extra rewards."
At this moment, the green circle edge on the screen in front flickered with red dots appearing, numerous densely covering from the right side, approaching the transport ship.
"Prepare for battle!"
Sun Lei activated the vehicle, accelerating towards the transport ship.
Simultaneously, other teams also quickly returned, converging on the transport ship’s right flank.
They needed to construct a defensive line to keep the foreign beasts outside, preventing them from approaching the transport ship.
The attack methods of these foreign beasts are very eerie, some are excellent at destroying energy shields; if they get close to the transport ship, they might rapidly break through the energy shield, allowing more foreign beasts to swarm and overrun the transport ship.
Lin Chen and the group floated midair, watching the horizon ahead forming a black line, surging over like ocean waves.
"Construct a defensive line, prepare for battle!"
