My Post-Apocalyptic Territory

On the side, Lu Xiaopeng and the other patrol team members looked at Xie Yi with shining eyes.

This is a real man, a powerful demonic beast that can be killed without hesitation.

No wonder Vice Captain Shay always said that artillery fire is the romance of men.

In those few short seconds, Vice Captain Shay's firepower was more powerful than that of their entire patrol team combined.

For a moment they all felt ashamed.

In particular, the veteran members of the patrol team, who had been hunting demonic beasts for some time, found that their strength had increased considerably. Although they were still not as good as experts like Captain Luo, they were still considered quite good in other small shelters.

He became somewhat smug.

But now it's clear that they are indeed no match for experts like Captain Luo and Deputy Captain Xie. However, it's not just that they are no match, but that they are far inferior!

If we don't work harder, we won't even be able to see your back anymore.

Some people have already decided to go to the training camp tonight for hellish ascetic practices.

This worm-like monster was just the beginning; more and more demonic beasts rushed out from under the giant tree.

Under heavy fire, the horde of demonic beasts gradually approached the edge of the pit, suffering increasing losses.

Suddenly, one of the high-level demonic beasts mixed in with the others broke away from the herd like a beam of light and charged towards Tang Yu and the others above.

This was actually a demonic beast that had been hiding among the ordinary demonic beasts, waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack. If the horde hadn't suffered heavy losses under the artillery bombardment, this high-level demonic beast would probably have continued to hide.

When did demonic beasts become so intelligent?

Tang Yu was somewhat puzzled. The worm from before had skillfully avoided artillery fire and knew how to use its advantages, never getting close. But this mutated beast was even smarter, knowing how to use its companions as cover.

Demonic beasts generally lack intelligence, or have very low intelligence, possessing only combat instincts.

He had encountered some powerful demonized beasts before. As one's strength increases, the intelligence of a demonized beast does indeed grow, but not as significantly. In Tang Yu's view, this demonized beast, which knew how to use its companions to cover its own escape, was no less intelligent than that super-large demonized beast, except for its inability to control lower-level demonized beasts.

However, at the evolutionary level, it is clearly far behind.

"What exactly is causing the mutated beasts to become increasingly intelligent? Is this a common phenomenon, or is it due to... some kind of accident?"

Tang Yu looked up, his gaze falling on the giant tree in the distance, and the leaves on its branches that looked like white crystals.

Perhaps this is the reason why the intelligence of the demonic beasts here has improved?

In a flash, the advanced demonic beast narrowly avoided two arrows and then quickly approached by stepping on the slope.

The outermost area was covered with landmines, but it was no use. The mutated beast was too fast. Even if it charged up by stepping on the mines, by the time the mines exploded, the mutated beast would have already covered a considerable distance.

With one last push, it leaped over the pit.

It was moving so fast that even Tang Yu himself couldn't see it clearly, only a blurry blue figure rushing towards them.

A chilling murderous intent emanated from it.

Like a biting cold wind!

A figure stepped forward to meet them.

The two figures clashed in mid-air, producing a metallic clang.

Tang Yu saw it clearly this time. The blue figure was a humanoid demon beast. Its entire body seemed to be made of blue ice crystal armor. Its head was long and narrow, topped with spikes. Its hands had no fingers, but were instead like blades.

The other figure that landed was Kong, one of whose swords was already drawn.

The auras of the human and the demonic beast mingled and clashed.

Patrol members who were nearby all felt short of breath.

This was an even more powerful demonic beast. In just one day, their horizons were constantly broadened. They could only sense that the aura was extremely strong, but they could not judge the level of this demonic beast based on the aura.

There are simply no reference points left!

The demonic beast made of ice crystals glanced at the empty space, then charged to the side, its target being the arrow towers and cannons.

Tang Yu felt a chill run down his spine.

This time, it can be definitively proven that the Iceman Demon Beast possesses a high level of intelligence, rather than just a fighting instinct.

The blue figure swept across the ground, freezing the grass and trees into ice crystals in its wake. It was about to swing its blade and destroy a cannon.

At this moment, Kong went to meet him again.

Kong's expression became focused and serious. He drew another longsword, wielding two swords, and his entire being transformed into a phantom.

Not to mention Tang Yu couldn't see it clearly, even in Luo Zhe and Xie Yi's eyes, the speed of the void was extremely fast.

The icy humanoid demon beast was also caught off guard, and in the blink of an eye, cracks appeared on its icy armor.

Fear flashed in the Ice Man's eyes, and he turned and fled, trying to jump into the horde of demonized beasts to escape under their cover.

It leaped into the air.

Behind him, a flash of sword light appeared.

The sword energy sliced ​​through the air, and a white streak was visible to the naked eye as it passed through the middle of the ice crystal demon beast's body.

Spiderweb-like cracks spread out.

The next moment, with a bang, the entire ice crystal armor shattered, and the ice demon beast died instantly.

He breathed a sigh of relief, but then suddenly saw...

Among the horde of mutated beasts, there were several whose mouths occupied almost half of their bodies. With their mouths wide open and heads raised, jets of dark green venom sprayed high into the air, like raindrops, about to drench the group on their heads.

Kong's expression also changed. He himself could ignore this attack, but the other members of the patrol team could not. However, he also lacked the ability to intercept such a dense swarm of venom.

Neither Luo Zhe nor Shay could.

They're experts at causing destruction, but they're not up to the task of protecting others.

The patrol team was horrified when they saw the dense mass of venom.

Block? What are you going to use to block?

Even if you run, you can't run out of such a wide area!

The venom shot out like an arrow.

Suddenly, a pale golden light shield rose up in front of everyone.

The light shield had an extremely wide range, protecting the group of over twenty people within it. The next moment, the venom landed on the light shield and instantly dissolved.

It wasn't the venom that dissolved the light shield, but rather the intense heat that dissolved the venom.

"Look over there."

A patrol member pointed to a spot not far away that wasn't covered by the light shield.

The venom landed on the ground, hissing and emitting white smoke. Then, a visible indentation appeared as the ground was corroded by the venom.

Many people gasped in horror, fully comprehensible to the consequences of being contaminated by this venom.

Even death is accompanied by immense suffering.

The few female awakened individuals in the group, in particular, felt extremely fearful.

This terrifying venom was blocked by that seemingly thin shield of light, which even dissolved the venom.

They looked at Winnie, who usually had the image of a gentle older sister, but only appeared incredibly pure when she truly displayed her strength.

His eyes were full of envy and admiration.

Such masters are the role models for these female awakened individuals.

The battle continued, with the followers displaying their skills and demonstrating their formidable strength.

Let the patrol members know just how strong a true master really is.

Shay is a humanoid self-propelled turret.

Kong is the ultimate swordsman.

Winnie is not only skilled at protection, but her destructive power should not be underestimated.

And then there's Captain Luo, a veteran powerhouse they already knew about.

These are all top-notch experts.

Such people could thrive even in the Lin Dong Shelter, yet they all gathered around Director Tang with utmost respect.

It is said that masters are often unruly and unconventional.

Like the Iron Hammer brothers, they asked themselves honestly, and although they weren't arrogant, before joining the patrol team and seeing so many experts, they still had some pride in their hearts.

However, these experts, whose strength was countless times greater than theirs, did not show the slightest arrogance when facing Director Tang.

Especially the veteran patrol members, they knew that at the beginning, they did not see experts like Xie Yi, Kong, and Winnie around Director Tang, but they suddenly appeared in the days that followed.

Just when they thought they were gradually getting to know Director Tang, they would be shocked once again by the power he displayed.

Both Director Tang himself and the experts gathered around him.

It's like being shrouded in a thick veil.

Incredibly mysterious.
