Chapter 49 - Chapter 49: Longwang Mountain!
Chapter 49: Longwang Mountain!
Wang Ye had done his homework and checked the map before coming.
The towns, villages, and streets of Wuyi County had detailed names, but the wild mountains in the countryside had none.
Longwang Mountain.
To any rescuer, it was a very common name.
But for Wang Ye, it had a completely different meaning.
The demonic humans!
According to Anabella’s description, the two demonic humans had mentioned the word “Longwang” many times.
He had thought that it might be the name of someone, a demonic human organization, or the code name of a certain mission.
But now, it seemed that they were most likely referring to Longwang Mountain.
It’s connected.” Wang Ye cleared his mind.
The strange phenomenon in Xinhe Residential Area could all be explained.
He remembered what Captain Xia had told them about demonic humans when he welcomed them as recruits.
As the order in Huaxia gradually stabilized, the number of anomalies decreased, and the growth of the demonic human slowed down, demonic humans began to purposefully capture refugees to strengthen themselves.
Due to the slow development of the city’s defense system and the protection of the base city’s guardian department, Dongting City had only begun to evacuate in an orderly manner half a year ago.
The demonic humans’ organization might take advantage of this period to sneak into Wuyi County, station themselves at Longwang Mountain, and secretly capture refugees.
Huang Zirui and Song Shuyi must have found something during the search and rescue, or they were unlucky and bumped into demonic humans, and thus…
They might still be alive.11 Wang Ye quickly called Captain Tong.
Really? Where?11 Hope burnt in Yu Shuiqin’s heart.
Longwang Mountain.
The two of them arrived very quickly.
Longwang Mountain was located downstream of Qinyin Stream. It was rich in resources and had an inexhaustible supply of red river water.
Surrounded by mountains and habituated by a large number of monsters, it was the best encampment for demonic humans who thirsted for blood.
A demonic humans’ organization…” Yu Shuiqin’s small face was tense.
They are everywhere, but they hide in dark corners.” Wang Ye looked at the time. “Captain Tong will arrive in about half an hour. Let’s go up first and explore the environment.”
In terms of detection ability, even Captain Tong was far inferior to the two of them, who were ability users.
Wang Ye was more worried that Captain Tong might make too much of a commotion during the search and alert the demonic humans’ organization.
No matter how he looked at it. the other party didn’t look particularly smart.
Will Brother Rui and Shuyi die?” Yu Shuiqin asked worriedly.
Most likely not.” Wang Ye wasn’t sure, but he could only say that now. “We didn’t find their bodies in Baimu Village, which means that they were probably brought up the mountain. The demonic humans aren’t stupid enough to kill Evolvers and suck their blood here. After all, the four captains are experienced and will surely be able to determine the situation then. When the time comes, the captains will even dig three feet into the ground to find them, which is unfavorable to the demonic humans too. The best way is to imprison them first and create the illusion that they were killed and eaten by nightmare-level monsters. They’ll suck their blood after the rescue team leaves.”
The blood of Evolvers was a natural tonic for demonic humans.
Let’s move!
Wang Ye took the lead.
It was a race against time now.
Demonic humans were not stupid, but they were inhumane.
Wang Ye still remembered the miserable state of Anabella’s assistant.
Longwang Mountain in the evening was very gloomy and dangerous. There were even nightmare-level monsters here.
The elite rescue team mainly cleaned up the urban areas and would not cover the uninhabited mountains.
Sese.”
Wang Ye moved forward slightly to the right. He had already detected a high-level ferocious monster.
15 degrees north by east.11 Yu Shuiqin’s gentle voice came from behind.
With her behind him, Wang Ye was very assured.
The main spell for release-type abilities was the Manifestation Spell. For long-range attacks, crossbow bolts with shocking lethality could be released. In close combat, shields could be formed for comprehensive defense.
Whoosh!”
A colorful vicious snake monster flew out from the shrubs. Its black fangs were like the scythe of the Grim Reaper under the setting sun.
Wang Ye could sense the fluctuations of an ability around him as Yu Shuiqin was ready to help him resist fatal danger at any time.
But his current self didn’t need it at all.
Wang Ye dodged the snake sideways and drew a graceful arc with his Red Sun Saber.
In an instant, Myriad Light was cast, and the vicious poisonous snake monster was slashed into countless pieces.
[Tier 3 snake monster killed.]
[Potential Points: 120.5—124.5.]]
He could control his sword technique freely.
His current physical fitness had completely reached the level of a level 3 genetic warrior.
Coupled with the perfection-stage Red Sun Saber Technique and his combat experience, plus being fully equipped with top-grade equipment, he could easily deal with high-grade fiend-level monsters.
There were many monsters.
After entering Longwang Mountain, battles became frequent, and many of the opponents were high-grade fiend-level monsters.
When they reached the mountainside, Wang Ye sensed an inexplicable danger and tensed up.
There was an extremely strong aura of life in the distance. It was on the same level as Captain Tong!
Right ahead, be careful.
a wild boar monster covered in thick
As soon as Yu Shuiqin finished speaking, armor charged out from between the two trees in front of them.
Its sharp fangs shone with a metallic light as if they could pierce through the sky.
A nightmare-level monster! It was twice the size of a high-grade fiend-level monster.
Furthermore, after evolving, its original body characteristics would be further revealed.
Whoosh!
Yu Shuiqin’s arrow shot out. It was extremely fast.
The nightmare-level wild boar monster only lowered its head to block its vital points.
The ability arrow landed on its hard forehead and exploded, splattering blood.
It aroused its anger and ferocity, and its angry howls shook the mountain forest.
Super defensive durability!
Wang Ye didn’t dodge because behind him was Yu Shuiqin.
There was no need to dodge either. His hand that was holding the series-II Red Sun Saber II lit up with a familiar light.
Her beautiful eyes were bright, and Yu Shuiqin was pleasantly surprised.
She knew it!
In an instant, the series-II Red Sun Saber’s blade light shot out in all directions.
Strengthening Spell!
Not only could Wang Ye cast the Control Spell and Strengthening Spell with extreme speed, but the effects of his spells were also quite stable.
Limit break skill, Comprehensive Saber Technique!
With a block for defense, Wang Ye’s blade quickly landed on the back of the nightmare-level wild boar’s neck.
Even though the boar’s defense had increased, its agility was far inferior.
Chi!
It was injured in one slash.
Another slash knocked it to the ground. A special ability arrow shot out from behind, nailing the nightmare-level wild boar monster that wanted to get up to the ground.
Wang Ye s powerful and heavy saber attack was like a raging fire.
Puchi!
Blood splattered everywhere, and the nightmare-level wild boar died on the spot.
I Killed level 4 boar monster.]
[Potential points: 135.7^150.7.]]
His first battle against a nightmare-level monster was a complete victory.
Wang Ye turned around and gave Yu Shuiqin a thumbs-up.
The latter looked at him with a reproachful look in her beautiful eyes. Her slightly pouted pink lips were especially cute as if she was saying, “I knew you were an ability user.”
“You are a strengthening-type ability user.” Yu Shuiqin looked at the series-Il Red Sun Saber in Wang Ye’s hand.
Yes, something like that,” Wang Ye said.
“To be honest, all six types of abilities are the same.” Yu Shuiqin had a very high EQ.
I like the release type,” Wang Ye smiled.
Yu Shuiqin avoided his gaze, and her tender face blushed slightly.
Uh… It was a misunderstanding. But it was also the truth.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little ambiguous, so Wang Ye naturally wouldn’t miss the opportunity. He grabbed Yu Shuiqin’s smooth hand. “Let’s go and find them.”
“Huh?” Yu Shuiqin subconsciously wanted to break free, but her hand was held tightly. She stole a glance at Wang Ye s face and her heart beat slightly faster.
As the sun set, under the influence of the precarious environment, their feelings for each other slowly grew.
*
*
When a girl had feelings for one and didn’t reject physical contact with one, one had basically won half of the battle.
Wang Ye naturally wouldn’t think about this now.
He wanted to save Huang Zirui and Song Shuyi. They were friends and teammates.
Not to mention that demonic humans were the sworn enemies of rescuers, to begin with.
Captain Tong has already reached the foot of the mountain,” Wang Ye said to Yu Shuiqin, who was half a step behind him.
Yes,” Yu Shuiqin replied softly.
Her voice was clear and sweet, clearly different from before.
Wang Ye was about to tease her when his eyes suddenly focused ahead.
Even though it was almost dark, he could still see a corpse not far away in the grass.
He made a shush gesture to Yu Shuiqin and quickly approached.
A mutated human.
Wang Ye was completely certain: This was the base of the demonic humans’ organization!
Otherwise, it was impossible for a mutated human to appear in the mountains.
Only the captured refugees would be forced to absorb the red stream water and undergo a mutation.
Where are they?” Yu Shuiqin whispered into Wang Ye’s ear and looked around nervously.
“Nearby. This is a refugee who couldn’t withstand the mutation and died. The demonic humans won’t go through the trouble of throwing him far away.” Wang Ye opened his interface, and his consciousness dropped to the
[Beginner-rankControl Spell, mastery —» perfection.]
[Beginner-rank Strengthening Spell, mastery —> perfection.]
Wang Ye used 80 potential points to raise his combat strength to its peak in the face of imminent danger.
&
He could already smell blood.
He patiently searched the mountainside.
As the smell of blood got more pungent, Wang Ye’s movements became slower.
His consciousness could already detect signs of life, and there was more than one.
The hostages were in a clearing in the forest not far away!
Whoosh!
Wang Ye crouched in the bushes behind the tree, his eyes shining.
He found them!
