I am getting stronger and stronger in the world of demons and monsters

To launch this attack,

Lin Xuankong was of course doing this to protect himself.

After all, the first target of the five cat-type source beasts was obviously everyone in the armored bus!

Another purpose,
This was because of the conversation between Han Liu and Han Bao - the cat clan source beasts they mentioned were extremely powerful, but there was a high chance of obtaining source beast crystals after killing them!

Lin Xuankong couldn't help but be moved by this!
The elemental gene pathway is powerful, and its combat ability can almost overwhelm all the gene warriors and source beasts of the same level. Only a small number of gene warriors with powerful manifestations can compare! But the power of the elemental gene pathway is too consuming to activate!

Even though Lin Xuankong has practiced the Ice Blade Technique to perfection, and the energy consumption when using the Ice Blade Technique is far lower than that of an elemental gene pathway warrior of the same level, he still cannot maintain the Ice Blade Technique for too long. The source energy obtained from practicing for twenty-four hours a day can only last for tens of seconds at most!

In this situation, the only way to maintain combat capability is to get more source beast crystals!

This battle did not disappoint Lin Xuankong.
Killed five ninth-level cat-type source beasts that were close to the upper limit and obtained three source beast crystals!
Three source beast crystals may not sound like a lot, but even Deputy Captain You Rui, who is already in the middle stage of the eighth level life form, only has three in her hand. These three are already her entire fortune!
Deputy Captain You Rui may have obtained more than three source beast crystals, and she may have used up the source beast crystals she got in the middle. But in any case, Deputy Captain You Rui has been in Shicheng for nearly two years, and now she can only take out three source beast crystals! It is conceivable that this super hard currency in the era of source beast disasters is so valuable!
As for the claws of those cat-type source beasts, for Lin Xuankong, they were just a convenient gain!

but,

Lin Xuankong was looking at the Dragon Elephant Gene Warriors with solemn faces.
As for Team Leader Xu Chong, who always called him his benefactor, he still felt a little weird in his heart!

After all, when it comes to strength, Lin Xuankong is very sure that he is definitely not a match for Vice Captain You Rui now, because in front of Vice Captain You Rui, who is a mid-level 8th-order life form, in front of her extremely terrifying and extremely powerful keen perception, his ice blade has absolutely no chance to launch a sneak attack! And as a mid-level 8th-order dragon elephant gene warrior, Vice Captain You Rui's own strength, speed, recovery ability, and explosive power are far more than ten times his own. A frontal attack, the ice blade driven by the ice blade technique, can't hurt this Vice Captain You Rui!

As for Captain Xu, who even Vice Captain You Rui felt inferior to, since he was already close to the upper limit of the eighth-order life form, it was definitely impossible for the ice blade activated by a ninth-order gene warrior like Lin Xuankong to fight against him! Unless Lin Xuankong could obtain the Predator Source Beast Crystal and obtain the method to advance to the eighth-order life form, and upgrade his life level by one level in one fell swoop, otherwise, the current Lin Xuankong was far from being a match for these strong men!

Therefore, at this moment, Xu Chong was so sure that the strength of Lin Xuankong, the "unknown strong man", had surpassed Deputy Captain Ma and Deputy Captain You Rui, and was even close to Captain Xu. Lin Xuankong was still a little embarrassed!
Touching the six source stones in his arms, Lin Xuankong shifted his gaze away from Xu Chong and the others, and looked towards the direction of Mission 3169, thinking to himself:
Since the Predator Source Beast is already an eighth-level life form, its strength is definitely not comparable to those cat-type Source Beasts that can be killed instantly by sneak attacks!

It is estimated that in terms of speed, strength, and combat ability, it is at least similar to that of Vice Captain Ma and Vice Captain You Rui, and may even be close to that of Vice Captain Xu.
I don’t know if I can successfully complete this mission with these six Originium crystals!

The area around No. 245 Weiming Street in the west district of Shicheng was originally a high-end villa area. Before the source beast disaster, the residents here were either rich or noble, and some of the residents were even relatives of genetic warriors, which were very rare at the time!

However, after the source beast disaster spread to Shicheng, it has completely turned into ruins. Most of the villas are already in ruins, and most of them were knocked down by the source beasts searching for food!

A three-story building in the center of the villa area seems to have been a fitness club before the source beast disaster. Because it is a mixed structure of steel frame and glass, it did not collapse completely, but the glass walls are already full of broken holes.

Xu Chong stood near the steel frame on the first floor of the clubhouse, looking at the twenty or so disaster victims and eight Dragon Elephant Gene warriors gathered together, and whispered:

"Because of the encounter with the cat-origin beast, we were delayed for several hours. We will definitely not be able to reach the six locations before nightfall today. If we want to successfully set up traps, we can only wait until tomorrow morning to set off!
Let's settle down here tonight. This villa area is the only one among dozens of nearby residential areas where no groups of source beasts have been found. It should be relatively safe!

But this is after all a ruined area where source beasts roam, and it’s not too far from the nests of the five predator source beasts, so no matter what anyone does tonight, they need to be careful not to make too much noise, and don’t light flames or turn on lighting equipment, so as not to attract the attention of the source beasts, especially the five predator source beasts! ”

After that, Xu Chong arranged the sentry duty for tonight, and let a few disaster victims go into the first floor and do a simple clean up inside so that they could live in.

After the mess inside was cleaned up a little, Han Bao, Han Liu, and Lin Xuankong walked to the lobby on the first floor of the clubhouse and sat down together on a worn-out long sofa. The two frail female disaster victims who were assigned to the same group as Han Bao and Han Liu followed closely behind the three of them, but after they got to the sofa, they did not dare to sit on the sofa like the three early-stage ninth-order gene warriors, but gathered aside and sat on the ground very restrainedly.

The eight Dragon Elephant Gene Warriors sat together on a long sofa nearby. The rest of the disaster victims also found a corner in groups of three or five and rested.

At this moment,

No matter the disaster victims or the dragon elephant gene warriors, they were still discussing with great interest the 'unknown strong man' who killed five cat-type source beasts today!
Some people speculated that the nameless strong man was the legendary "naturally awakened" genetic warrior, who did not belong to any shelter, so he wandered alone in the ruins and did not show up before killing the cat source beast.

Some people also speculated that the unknown strong man might be a captain of Shelter No. 3169 or other shelters, who secretly helped in order to ensure the successful completion of Mission No. .

Some people also speculated that the unknown strong man possessed some kind of powerful alloy weapon, which was why he was able to kill those cat-type source beasts directly before they had a chance to escape!
In short, there are all kinds of speculations, but no one guesses it is Lin Xuankong!
After all, except Han Liu and Han Bao, no one present knew that Lin Xuankong had chosen the elemental gene pathway. Moreover, even Han Liu and Han Bao did not know that the Lin Xuankong in front of them was already a powerful elemental gene warrior with the upper limit of level nine strength!
Han Liu listened to everyone's discussion for a while and became interested. After taking a few bites of the sausages he had prepared in advance, he looked at Lin Xuankong and Han Bao and said with a chuckle:

"Brother Bao, Brother Kong, what kind of cultivation method did that unknown strong man use? He is so strong that he managed to kill five cat-type source beasts silently, and they were five powerful cat-type source beasts close to the upper limit of the ninth-order life form!" Han Bao frowned and analyzed seriously:
"If it is a gene warrior at or below the middle eighth stage, the only one that can possess such strong killing power is probably the elemental gene warrior!

If you want to kill five cat-origin beasts, an elemental gene warrior of the eighth stage in the early stage will have no problem, but if you want to kill five cat-origin beasts silently, I'm afraid an elemental gene warrior of the eighth stage in the early stage can't do it. You have to be an elemental gene warrior of the eighth stage in the middle stage at least! After all, cat-origin beasts have always been known for their strong strength, flexibility and speed!

If it is a dragon elephant gene warrior, it is estimated that it is the same as Xu Chong's guess, at least the strength of Captain Xu.

Otherwise, even if an eighth-stage dragon-elephant gene warrior could kill five cat-type source beasts, it would definitely cause a huge commotion. Unless it was a dragon-elephant gene warrior like Captain Xu who possessed abilities close to the eighth-stage upper limit, he would be able to deal with these five ninth-stage cat-type source beasts fatally and quickly!

As for the embodiment-type gene warriors, I am afraid that only those gene warriors with powerful killing embodiment can achieve such a record based on the strength of the late eighth stage! Of course, if you have... ahem, a gene warrior with that kind of extremely special embodiment, it is possible to do this in the middle eighth stage!"

Lin Xuankong was listening and couldn't help showing a slightly strange expression.

I am not an eighth-level mid-stage elemental gene warrior. I just took advantage of Vice Captain You Rui's true eye to catch the five cat-type source beasts off guard! After all, I activated the ice blade and launched an attack across the ruins. Even though those cat-type source beasts were quite cunning and had a certain degree of intelligence, they could never have imagined that there would be a deadly ice blade that would attack at such a tricky angle!

Han Liu nodded repeatedly and said proudly: "Brother Bao, it is indeed the same as my analysis!"

This guy was quite proud and excited because Han Bao vaguely said that with his genetic ability, he could do this in the middle stage of the eighth level!
“Brother Bao, Brother Kong, if I really grow to the eighth level in the future, I will definitely come out to hunt those damned source beasts. When I get the source stone crystals, you two will definitely be indispensable. If I get three source stone crystals in one battle like that unknown strong man, I will definitely give one to each of you two!”

Han Liu's eyes were full of longing, and he spoke in a low voice with great pride.

Han Bao smiled upon hearing this, then shook his head and said, “I am a dragon-elephant gene warrior. Before I reach the eighth level, I don’t need Originium crystals most of the time, except for extremely dangerous missions that require continuous combat. If you really have the chance to get three Originium crystals, it’s better for you to use them yourself, or give one to Lin Kong. After all, his cultivation path requires a lot of Originium crystals!”

Han Liu nodded, looked at Lin Xuankong, blinked his eyes, and said with a smile: "We are three brothers in one life. Don't worry, Brother Kong, if I get three source stone crystals, I will definitely give you at least two. How about that? That's good enough!"

Lin Xuankong nodded and said with a smile: "Yeah, that's very nice! I feel the same way. If I get ten Originium crystals in the future, I will definitely give you two!"

Hearing this, Han Liu scratched his head with a strange expression and said with a smile: "That's not right, Brother Kong. I got three pieces and gave you two pieces. How come you got ten pieces and only gave me two pieces? Shouldn't you do the same as me and give me two pieces when you got three pieces?"

Lin Xuankong smiled but said nothing.

You are just making empty promises here. Where do you have three Originium crystals now?
But I'm different. I really do have more than three Originium crystals now. If it's the same as you said, wouldn't I have to give you four right now? Hahahaha!

Although he laughed in his heart, Lin Xuankong still trusted Han Liu's "generosity". After all, when his predecessor was in danger, Han Liu gave extremely precious medicines and supplies to his predecessor, and he didn't know whether his predecessor could survive or whether he could get a reward in the future!

A few people were chatting.

It was completely dark.

If it was before the source beast disaster, before it was completely dark, this villa area would definitely be lit up everywhere, and the clubhouse in this villa area would definitely be extremely lively!

But now,

The fitness center in this villa area was completely dark.
Apart from the occasional suppressed coughs from the victims, there was no other movement, and no lights were turned on!
Of course, it was just past seven o'clock at this moment, and the disaster victims and gene warriors in the clubhouse had not yet fallen asleep! After all, in such a ruin where danger could occur at any time, even the Dragon Elephant Gene Warriors dared not completely relax, let alone those ordinary disaster victims who had little combat ability!

Everyone in the club huddled in a corner, just to rest their tired bodies for a while, but no one dared to completely relax, let alone speak casually! At night, any sound, even the sound of talking, would be easier to spread farther. No one dared to speak casually, not wanting to attract the cats or other beasts from the day!
About two hours later,

Han Bao, who was leaning on the sofa, raised his arm, glanced at the time displayed on his watch, then gently patted Lin Xuankong and Han Liu beside him and whispered:
"It's nine o'clock. According to the arrangement, it's time for our group to take over from Group 3 and perform the duty of guarding!

But the people from Group 3 haven't sent anyone back to ask us to change shifts yet. I wonder if something happened!" (End of this chapter)
