I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

The smoke of battle still lingers above the ruins.

Shen Tian stood beside the massive corpse of the Golden Armored Rhinoceros King, letting the scalding beast blood drip down the blood groove of his black-gold battle blade.

His consciousness was currently focused on the azure blue system panel in his mind.

[Would you like to consume 1000 kill points to plunder the blue talent: Undying Body?]

"Yes."

Shen Tian silently recited in his heart.

As soon as the order was given, the 1000 kill points that had just been acquired and hadn't even been warmed up were instantly wiped out.

next second.

A strange warm current rose from the corpse of the Golden Armored Rhinoceros King and entered Shen Tian's body through his pores.

itch.

It was incredibly itchy.

This sensation didn't act on the surface of his skin, but penetrated deep into his bones, as if countless ants were gnawing at every single cell of his body.

That's genes recombinating.

That's a leap in the level of life.

Shen Tian gritted his teeth, a fine layer of cold sweat seeping from his forehead, but the light in his eyes grew brighter and brighter.

In just three seconds, the maddening itching subsided like a receding tide.

Instead, an unprecedented vitality has emerged.

Shen Tian glanced at his palm.

The small wounds that had been cut by the strong wind during the battle were now scabbing over and falling off at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing new, tender pink skin.

Not even a scar was left.

[Looting successful!]

[Gained Blue Talent: Undying Body]

[Entry Description: As long as your heart and brain are not destroyed simultaneously, you are an immortal ghost on the battlefield.

【Effect】

[Organ Redundancy]: Removes the "fatal weakness" check for the heart, lungs, and throat (being attacked only deducts health points, not causing instant death).

[Injury Recovery]: Can consume Qi and Blood to recover from injuries.

"powerful."

Shen Tian took a deep breath, feeling the surging blood and qi within his body like a great river.

This is the real divine skill.

With this talent, his margin for error on the battlefield will increase exponentially.

We dare to take risks that we wouldn't have dared to take before.

I can now withstand injuries that I wouldn't have dared to endure before.

As long as he isn't instantly killed, he can slowly wear down his opponent!

"Shen...Shen Tian?"

Lin Qingyi's trembling voice came from behind.

Shen Tian turned around, concealing the sharp glint in his eyes, and put on his harmless smile again.

"Captain, that big guy is dead."

Shen Tian pointed to the corpse at his feet, his tone as relaxed as if he had just stepped on a cockroach.

"I know it's dead..."

Lin Qingyi looked at the enormous head that was almost split in two and swallowed hard.

Her mind is still blank.

Even now, recalling the brilliance of that strike still sends a chill down her spine.

That was a strike that transcended technique and touched upon the "momentum" of the situation.

"What exactly are you...?"

Lin Qingyi wanted to ask something, but didn't know where to begin.

How did you do that?

Are you really a first-level martial artist?

What was that slash you just made?

Too many questions lingered in my throat, finally culminating in a powerless sigh.

"You're a monster."

Reggae and Afei, who were standing to the side, nodded in deep agreement.

In their eyes, Shen Tian's current level of danger is a level higher than that of the Golden Armored Rhinoceros King.

"Just lucky."

Shen Tian shrugged, casually twirled his sword, and sheathed the black-gold battle sword.

"It just happened to reveal a weakness, and I just happened to poke into it. It's that simple."

Simple?

Reggae's lips twitched.

That's a fourth-tier lord!

That's the Golden Armored Rhinoceros King in Berserk mode, with its defense doubled!

You call this simple?

Just then.

The piercing air raid siren suddenly resounded throughout the entire northern defense line.

Ugh—!

This sound was unlike any before; it was harsh, shrill, and carried a chilling sense of urgency.

That's the highest level of red alert!

The alarm will only be sounded when the defense line is about to collapse completely, or when a city-wide crisis is imminent.

Lin Qingyi's expression changed drastically.

She abruptly pressed the communicator to her ear.

"This is Lin Qingyi from Team C3! What happened?!"

On the other end of the communicator, a series of noisy electrical sounds and terrified screams came through.

"Retreat! A full retreat!"

"Information is incorrect! Repeat! Information is incorrect!"

"This isn't an ordinary beast tide...this is a full-scale attack! They've gone mad!"

……

Jiangcheng, the headquarters of the northern defense line.

The atmosphere in front of the enormous holographic sand table was so heavy it seemed like water could drip from it.

Dozens of staff officers were sweating profusely as they typed away at their keyboards, and bright red error messages flooded the screen.

Standing at the very front was a middle-aged man dressed in a general's uniform.

Qin Zhenshan.

The commander-in-chief of the Jiangcheng defense line, a peak fifth-tier martial artist.

At this moment, this tough guy, who usually remains calm even in the face of a collapsing mountain, is staring intently at the dense red dots on the big screen, his hands gripping the edge of the command platform tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force.

"Have you contacted Tian Xuansi yet?"

Qin Zhenshan's voice was low and suppressed, barely containing his impending rage.

"Reporting to the garrison! The Tianxuan Division reports that the magnetic field around Jiangcheng has been blocked by some kind of high-level alien beast, and satellite signals are intermittent, making it impossible to obtain accurate images!"

A messenger reported in a trembling voice.

"waste!"

Qin Zhenshan slammed his fist hard on the table.

"Who prepared the previous reconnaissance report? Who told me there were only ten Tier 4 Lords?!"

Qin Zhenshan pointed at the scarlet area on the screen and roared:

"Open your eyes and look! Are there really ten of them?!"

on the screen.

Behind the surging tide of low-level alien beasts, nearly twenty enormous red dots were moving rapidly, like twenty heavy tanks, crushing the northern defense line with unstoppable force.

Each red dot represents a fourth-tier beast!

Moreover, judging from the energy fluctuations, at least three of them have reached the peak of the fourth rank!

even.

There are also three level-five beast kings!

What does this mean?

This is no longer a beast tide.

This is a premeditated, organized war of extermination targeting Jiangcheng!

"They've gone mad... these beasts have gone mad..."

A staff officer, pale-faced, muttered to himself.

In the past, most beast tides were instinctive charges launched by strange beasts to compete for territory or food.

As long as humans display sufficient firepower and inflict sufficient damage, the beast tide will naturally recede.

But this time is different.

These strange beasts are like death squads controlled by some kind of will, disregarding casualties and consequences, even if it means filling in the gaps with corpses, they will still try to breach the human defenses.

"Hold your ground! Sector C, Sector D, and Sector E requesting backup!"

"Heavy artillery positions are running low on ammunition!"

"The second line of defense is under too much pressure and is expected to collapse in twenty minutes!"

Bad news followed one after another.

Qin Zhenshan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Conventional forces could not stop it.

Although the Po Jun Division was elite, it was still a drop in the ocean when faced with such a large number of high-level alien beasts.

If no extraordinary measures are taken, Jiangcheng North District will cease to exist after tonight.

There's no other way.

A resolute glint flashed in Qin Zhenshan's eyes.

He turned around, looked at his adjutant behind him, and said in a deep voice:

Contact "Greedy Wolf".

Upon hearing those two words, the previously noisy command center fell silent for a moment.

Greedy Wolf.

Within the framework of the Tian Shu Bureau, this is a special term.

If the Po Jun Division is like a regular army, it emphasizes discipline and teamwork.

So the Greedy Wolf Division is a group of madmen, monsters, and lone wolves who operate outside the rules.

They disobey orders and break the rules.

They only kill the strongest beasts and take the most expensive resources.

The threshold for entering the Greedy Wolf Division is extremely high. Not only must one have a record of killing enemies of higher ranks, but one must also have the ability to survive independently in desperate situations.

The entire Jiangcheng branch has several thousand members in the Po Jun Division.

But the members of the Greedy Wolf Division.

only one.

It was a true killing machine, the last trump card of the Jiangcheng Tian Shu Bureau.

"Should we really use that person to guard the area?"

The adjutant hesitated.

"The people from the Greedy Wolf Division... don't have very good tempers. And according to regulations, unless it's a city-level crisis, we don't have the authority to directly order them around."

"This is a city-wide crisis!"

Qin Zhenshan roared:

"Those twenty fourth-tier beasts charged in, how many of us do you think will survive?!"

"Go and beg him! No matter the cost, even if we have to beg on our knees, we must get him to do it!"

"If we can stop those few lord-level beasts, I'll give him all my military merit points for the rest of my life!"

Just then.

An operator in charge of radar monitoring suddenly stood up, his voice tinged with surprise.

"Reporting...reporting to the garrison!"

"No need to contact us anymore!"

Qin Zhenshan turned around abruptly: "What do you mean?"

The operator pointed to the edge of the screen at the purple dot that was rapidly approaching the core of the war zone.

"Lord Tanlang's signal source has appeared on the outer ring of the North District!"

"He...is already on his way!"
