Black was very fast and soon arrived at the base.
He did not see a large number of corpses and blood here, and his heart immediately sank.
This was bad.
There were actually no signs of a fight. Could it be that Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion had been insta-killed?
This thought was thrown out of his mind as soon as it rose.
No, no.
Even if Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion could not defeat the mystic realm king and its subordinates, they would still be able to escape. They should not be instantly killed.
Black carefully approached and suddenly discovered that Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion were calmly roasting meat.
The rich fragrance of meat even entered Black’s nose.
Lin Xuan also discovered Black and waved his hand happily. “You’re here too? Want to eat together?”
Black asked curiously, “This base hasn’t been occupied by a mystic realm king?”
Lin Xuan sighed. “This place is also occupied by a mystic realm king. Although the two of us have some strength, we naturally can’t defeat a mystic realm king.”
“Then you guys…?”
Flame Explosion smiled and said, “There were actually two mystic realm kings. They seemed like they were fighting for territory. The more they fought, the further away they went. We took the opportunity to put down the Protection Rune.”
Of course, that was not the case.
After possessing the mystic realm king as his avatar, Lin Xuan instructed it to quietly lie on the ground as a bodyguard. Not long after, another mystic realm king suddenly approached.
These two mystic realm kings were both Ardent Mane Wolves. They looked at each other and gritted their teeth.
Lin Xuan thought that they were about to fight and hurriedly prepared to call the Thunder Lion over to participate in the battle.
In the end, as the two mystic realm kings stared at each other… they really started fighting.
One was in front and the other was behind. Then, one was above and the other was below. One moved and the other howled like a ghost.
Only then did Lin Xuan discover that the mystic realm king he had possessed was a male wolf and the other mystic realm king was a female wolf…
Moreover, these two mystic realm kings were both more than seven meters long. The commotion of the “battle” was huge, and a large number of the surrounding trees had fallen.
Many demon beasts were also affected and were trampled to death and injured in the process of their battle.
Lin Xuan could not stand it anymore and hurriedly sent the two of them away.
After being interrupted, the female wolf even roared angrily at Lin Xuan, as if saying, “If you take away my happiness, I’ll bite you to death.”
The male wolf hurriedly stopped the fight and prepared to find a new place to carry out the deed with the female wolf it had just hooked up with. The two mystic realm kings eloped under the lightning.
It was precisely because of this that there were only him and his avatar here.
Black nodded. “I see.”
After advancing, the Falling Thunder Mountain became more like the real world.
In the real world, wild beasts would fight for mates and territories. This was also the case for mystic realm kings.
Black took out two bottles of Erguotou from the storage compartment and one over. “You can’t just eat meat. Drink some alcohol.”
The three of them immediately began to eat heartily. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
Black quickly swallowed this big pork leg in two or three mouthfuls. He wiped the oil on his hands and nodded. “Yes, the martial artists in the west and north have contacted us. They said that there are mystic realm kings on both sides. It’s very dangerous. It’s difficult for them to set up Protection Runes.”
“Chu Pengcheng was just about to contact you when a purple lightning bolt suddenly appeared at the highest point of the Falling Thunder Mountain. Just like the EMP, it directly destroyed everyone’s communication devices.”
Lin Xuan took out the broken communicator from his waist and said in surprise, “I see. No wonder there was only an ear-piercing rustling sound coming from the communicator.”
“Since you’ve already set up the protective rune here, let’s hurry up and support the other three.” Black had already stood up.
Lin Xuan nodded and immediately followed closely behind with Flame Explosion.
Soon, they arrived at the south side of the Falling Thunder Mountain. On the way, they met up with Bai Xinghe, who had come to support the south side. Although Bai Xinghe’s level was low, his profession was a precious purple Blood Hunter, and his combat strength was very strong.
However, they did not find the two Seventh Realm martial artists here. Instead, they found two broken corpses that had been bitten.
Black sighed and collected the belongings of these people before burying them on the spot.
They quickly arrived at the southern base. As expected, a large number of demon beasts had gathered here. However, there were no signs of mystic realm kings.
“I reckon that the two of them came up with a plan to lure the demon beasts away before using a method to destroy them separately.” Bai Xinghe sighed. “However, they probably lured too many demon beasts and were surrounded. In the end, they died in battle.”
“What a pity. After all, they’re two Seventh Realm martial artists.” Black did not show much sadness and quickly took out a pair of short knives.
Bai Xinghe nodded. “Let’s do it. Let’s quickly eliminate these demon beasts and support the remaining two sites.”
With the strength of Shield Ghost, Flame Explosion, Black, and Bai Xinghe, it was not difficult for them to deal with this group of more than a hundred demon beasts.
As long as Shield Ghost’s shield could still withstand it, it was only a matter of time before they killed all the demon beasts.
Soon, all the demon beasts were destroyed.
The three of them successfully placed the Protection Rune here.
“Continue forward.” Black called for Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion to follow.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the west side of the Falling Thunder Mountain and encountered three Seventh Realm martial artists who were helpless.
The two of them were at level two Seventh Realm, and the other was at level six Seventh Realm. They had rushed down from the main peak to provide support.
“Eh? You guys are here?” The three of them were very happy to see Lin Xuan and the others.
However, after a short moment of happiness, they started to frown again.
“It’s useless even if there are three more people. We can’t defeat those two mystic realm kings.”
“I wonder what’s wrong with those two mystic realm kings. They’re actually stuck together like glue. They’re leading at least 600 demon beasts. This is too ridiculous. Just looking at this number makes my scalp tingle.”
“Black, why don’t we use another place as our base?”
The three of them looked at Black helplessly.
Black shook his head. “The safety station has to be equipped with many functions. It has to have a canteen, accommodation, toilets, transactions, and many other facilities. The area it occupies is very large.”
“We’ve investigated the west side of the Falling Thunder Mountain for a long time. This is the only area nearby that is suitable for building safety stations. The other areas are either steep mountains, frequent lightning strikes, or have many demon beasts. They’re all not suitable.”
Black’s words made everyone feel troubled.
They could not beat the mystic realm kings.
However, it was not like he could build a safety station elsewhere.
Could it be that the safety station could not be built on the west side of the Falling Thunder Mountain?
That would only make things even more difficult.
After the advancement of the Falling Thunder Mountain, its area had greatly increased. Its total area had already exceeded 30 square kilometers, which was about the size of a county.
It was already very unreasonable for such a large mystic realm to only have five safety stations.
Now, they even wanted to reduce another one on the west side.
In this way, it was very likely that the martial artists would not come to the west to train. This was because if they encountered danger here, they would not be able to find the shelter of the safety station, and the danger factor would greatly increase.
Any death of a Seventh Realm martial artist would be a loss to the core strength of the Construction Division.
Lin Xuan revealed a strange expression.
The two mystic realm kings were stuck together. Could it be…
“Were they two Ardent Mane Wolves?” he asked.
The three of them looked up at him and said in surprise, “Yes, how did you know?”
Lin Xuan coughed dryly. “My base was occupied by one of them. Later on, when the other one appeared, they fought. The more they fought, the further away they went. Only then could I take the opportunity to set up the Protection Rune.”
The three of them looked envious.
Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion were too lucky.
The two mystic realm kings even left together as they fought, giving them a chance.
“If there’s really no other way, I’ll be the bait and lure away the mystic realm king and these demon beasts. You guys take the opportunity to set up the Protection Rune,” Black said in a low voice.
The three of them were surprised.
Black was using himself as bait. This was very dangerous. He might very well die inside.
Of course, Black could also run back and enter the energy shield of the Protection Rune.
However, it was very likely that the furious mystic realm king would directly lead the demon beasts to attack the energy barrier.
After all, a Protection Rune was not invincible. Without the subsequent energy supply, it could not protect them for long.
When the energy barrier was broken, death was still inevitable.
Seeing that Black was planning to take the risk and give it a try, Lin Xuan hurriedly said, “There’s no need for you to take the risk. I have an idea.”
Black was stunned. “Tell me about it.”
Lin Xuan said solemnly, “Actually… I’ve been able to communicate with wild beasts since I was young.”
Black and the other three people stared at him in surprise. “You were born with the Beast Speaker skill?”
Beast Speaker was a rare blue profession.
The profession skill of the Beast Speaker was also called “Beast Speaker”, which allowed one to communicate with wild beasts and demon beasts.
As for the outcome of the exchange, it was up to the skill grade, skill level, and the level of the demon beast.
When the communication worked, it was possible for both parties to be happy.
However, it was also possible for the communication to fail. Originally, the demon beasts only wanted to chase the martial artists out of their territory. With this communication, the demon beasts might become even more furious and would not stop until they died.
It was precisely because this profession skill was rather useless and had almost no combat strength that very few people would choose this profession.
Lin Xuan simply nodded and admitted it.
“Then try it from afar. Perhaps you can make those two mystic realm kings leave in harmony,” Black said solemnly. “But if they show any attack, escape! Escape immediately! I’ll cover your retreat.”
Lin Xuan nodded seriously and pretended to be cautious as he slowly approached the empty space.
Soon, he saw the two huge Ardent Maned Wolves lying in the open space.
On the periphery were hundreds of demon beasts either playing or napping.
The male wolf was licking the female wolf’s glossy fur. The female wolf seemed to have fallen apart and was lying on the ground comfortably.
From the wounds on their bodies, he could tell that the battle just now was very intense.
As for the detailed battle situation… Lin Xuan did not want to use the perspective of his training avatar to seriously browse through it. It might affect his normal sexual orientation.
Sensing the aura of a living person, several demon beasts stood up and bared their teeth at Lin Xuan.
Black and the others were immediately worried.
Would it really work?
Could Shield Ghost be bluffing?
The male and female wolves also noticed this person.
The female wolf, especially, had a deep impression of this person.
Just as it was feeling good just now, this human said something and the male wolf stopped moving.
Seeing this human again, it was even more furious. It opened its mouth and roared at Lin Xuan, filled with anger.
Damn it, the person who interrupted my business is here again? Just you wait, I’ll get up and kill you!
Black had a strange expression.
Had he heard wrongly?
It was normal for there to be anger in this wolf roar, but why was there also resentment?
Why would a mystic realm king have resentment towards Lin Xuan??
