Isolated city in the great wilderness

The man had a dream.

She dreamed that she had just broken free from a long nightmare.

The sun was like a wave, washing away his curled up body that was covered in cold sweat.

"Daddy, lazy bum, wake up!"

A chubby little girl squatted by his bed and chuckled. She even tugged at his beard.  the sun is already shining on my butt!

The little girl's appearance was a little unfamiliar.

The man still smiled subconsciously. He reached out his scarred palm and wanted to rub the little girl's hair.

The little girl giggled and dodged, but she pounced on the man again and kissed him on the cheek.

The man suddenly felt a burning pain on his cheek.

This dream was too wonderful.

Even though he instinctively realized that something was wrong, the man was still greedy for the sweet, soft, and warm feeling like marshmallow. He closed his eyes and hugged his daughter, unwilling to wake up for a long time.

Until his daughter kissed him on the face again and again.

The needle-like stabbing pain turned into a severe pain of acid erosion, as if the whole piece of flesh from his cheek to his neck was about to be torn off by his daughter. The man opened his eyes reluctantly.

He saw a pair of Scarlet, huge, and charcoal-like eyeballs in his daughter's eye sockets.

On his pink, round face, there was hair that was even denser and sharper than his beard.

Its cherry-like mouth was constantly torn to the sides, revealing crisscrossing fangs.

Suspicious pieces of flesh and broken bones were embedded in the gaps between the fangs.

Behind the fangs, a nauseating stench spurted out from the depths of his daughter's dark throat.

A long tongue full of thorns slithered out from between the fangs, licking or tearing at the man's face back and forth. It had already licked off his skin and flesh, revealing the White bones.

The pain made the man instantly sober up.

He realized that the one licking him was a demonic beast called "hell Wolf."

The nether wolves were ferocious dogs of war from the blood demon sector.

It looked like a fusion of a Wolf and a Spider.

It had the ability to shoot out sticky spider silk and bind its prey.

Its terrifying bite force could also penetrate the light mustard-seed combat suit of the federal Army.

On the man's body, not to mention a mustard suit, he didn't even have the most common stab-proof combat suit.

Even though his heart was in turmoil.

The man didn't show any of it.

He endured the pain and continued to maintain the state of suspended animation.

Even though the flesh on his face had been licked clean by the nether wolves, he did not even move a single finger.

"That damned explosion.

"I'm seriously injured. I was unconscious for at least a few hours.

five of his ribs are broken. Many of his internal organs are showing signs of contusions and even bleeding. His spiritual energy is mostly consumed. He doesn't have any magical equipment that he can use.

"If we counterattack now, our chances of winning are zero."

The man was very sure that the hell wolves treated him as a corpse, so he did not waste the precious sticky spider silk.

null

He was still holding the thunderclap-1 explosive arrow gun in his hand!

The man's heart beat faster.

His teeth were deeply embedded in his lips as he tried his best to control his breathing and the twitching of his facial muscles.

Whether it was his calf that was torn into a bloody mess by the nether wolves, or his back that was embedded with a large amount of shrapnel and broken bones in the process of dragging.

He didn't even blink.

Only his pupils, which had shrunk to the size of needle tips, were fixed on the storm bolter.

Finally-

When the hell wolves dragged the man to the side of the corpse, a bolt of lightning flashed across the night sky, and deafening Thunder rumbled.

Taking advantage of the nether Wolf's attention being slightly attracted by the lightning, the man was like a spring that had been compressed to its limit. He ignored the intense pain of the flesh and bone separating from his calf and leaped towards the corpse, trying to grab the explosive rivergun in his hand.

Unfortunately, the soldiers of the federal Army, who had been dead for a long time, were holding the storm bolters too tightly.

It took the man half a second before he pried the soldier's fingers away and grabbed the storm bolter.

Without waiting for him to turn the muzzle, the nether Wolf reacted and let go of his calf. With a " swish ", a ball of sticky spider silk shot out from the depths of its bloody mouth, firmly sticking the man's hands to the explosive arrow gun.

The man pulled the trigger.

The attack rune arrays of the boltgun were stuck by the spider silk, and the flow of spiritual energy was not smooth. The crystal cell buzzed, but the muzzle did not shoot out even half a beam of fire.

The nether Wolf bared its fangs and let out a shrill howl, pouncing at the man.

The man's eyes were bloodshot as he stabbed both his hands and the explosive arrow gun into the nether Wolf's throat.

The fangs of the nether wolves stabbed and scratched his shoulders and chest, and their sour and stinky saliva was all over his face.

The man screamed hysterically and pulled the trigger again and again.

The vibration of the storm bolter became more and more intense, and the temperature kept rising. It was as if it had become a Red Hot iron.

BOOM!

When the fangs of the nether wolves were about to pierce through the man's throat, the spiritual energy storm that represented destruction finally arrived.

The old thunderclap-1 explosive arrow gun, due to the overload of spiritual energy, directly exploded deep inside the throat of the nether Wolf.

The hell wolf's head burst open like a ripe watermelon.

Its headless body was jumping around and spurting blood.

The man's hands, however, were protected by the sticky spider web, and miraculously, they were not blown to pieces.

However, the web between his thumb and forefinger was torn, and his finger bones were dislocated.

"Huchi, huchi, huchi!"

The man panted heavily.

He didn't have time to deal with the bloody wound, nor did he have the time to rejoice for escaping a disaster. The man didn't hesitate to pounce on the remains of the nether Wolf, transforming into a human-shaped beast and gnawing and swallowing fiercely.

Hell Wolf's meat was not delicious.

It was bitter, stinky, tough, and as hard to bite off as a rubber strip. It was also wrapped in a disgusting mucus.

As he bit on, it was even easier for him to bite on the broken parts of the storm bolter.

The man only ate two mouthfuls before he vomited.

But after it vomited, its eyes glowed with ferocity, and its expression remained unchanged. It continued to devour all the food that was rich in spiritual energy, which could heal its wounds quickly and slightly recover its physical strength and spiritual energy.

Five minutes later, the man let out a moan of relief.

He then broke off a sharp broken bone from the nether Wolf's corpse and stuck it into his boots to use as a dagger.

Only then did he raise his head and size up the surrounding battlefield.

"Leizhe city is finished."

The man saw that, in the dark clouds above his head, although the wormhole leading to the blood demon sector had been closed, the ripples of spiritual energy that the wormhole raised were still spreading out like a blast, like a bloody mouth that could swallow the world.

Space that had just been torn apart was always particularly fragile.

New wormholes could appear at any moment from their bloody mouths, sending wave after wave of overwhelming and destructive beast tides to the heaven origin world.

Under the bloody night sky, before the man fell unconscious, the high-rise buildings and heavy traffic in the city had turned into a burning hell on earth.

The man's eyes looked past the broken walls covered in blood, trying to find reinforcements on the horizon.

However, he discovered that a sandstorm was raging in all directions of leizhe city.

The continuously expanding sandstorm was like four slowly moving iron walls, surrounding the city tightly.

In the depths of the sandstorm, there was a low rumble of Thunder and criss-crossing lightning.

This was the depths of the great wilderness.

Thunderbolts, rainstorms, hurricanes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters that were beyond the imagination of the Inland people were common here.

The area surrounding leizhe city was even more famous for being a thunderstorm zone.

Because of the intense reaction between the crystal mines underground and the magnetic field of the heaven's origin sector, thunderstorms would strike every few days.

Even the name of the city came from this.

When the thunderstorm was raging, not only the high-level cultivators and the large crystal warships of the federal Army could not move an inch.

The internal and external communications would be severely disrupted and even completely cut off, making it impossible for the outside world to know the situation in leizhe city at the first moment.

judging from the situation, the thunderstorm will take at least a whole night to subside, and the large-scale reinforcements will probably only arrive after a day and a night.

"One day and one night is enough for the beast tide to devour the city ruins.

"I can only rely on my own strength to escape from this damn place!"

The man had used rags and bandages to cover his bloody face, only revealing two bright eyes.

From the remains of the federal soldier, he found a Thunder palm and a piece of military dry food made of compressed demon beast flesh.

He stuffed the military dry food into his arms, narrowed his eyes, and scanned the ruins around him for any weapons and escape tools.

Soon, the man collected a large pile of bloodied, worn-out chainsaw swords and storm bolters.

At this moment, under a collapsed building not far away, an object that was still shining under the dark clouds caught his attention.

"Eh?"

The man bent forward and found that it was a portable crystal processor.

He was wearing it on the wrist of a round, chubby little girl.

Unfortunately, this little girl who looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old had already died.

She was firmly pressed down by tens of thousands of tons of building debris. The volcanic dust took away all the color on her body and turned her into a lifeless gray statue.

The man's eyes swept over the little girl's face.

In a daze, the little girl in front of him and the daughter in his dream, the soft and sweet face like marshmallow, overlapped.

The man grinned and squeezed out an expression that he himself did not understand.

Soon, he moved his eyes from the little girl's face to her portable crystal processor.

it's a new model that I've never seen before. The materials used are very exquisite, and the polishing and assembly techniques are very delicate, too. It doesn't look like a common product from an assembly line but more like a unique handcrafted product carefully carved by a refiner.

even though it has been heavily wounded, the portable crystal processor is still functioning normally, and the signal is not completely cut off. If we can find a high ground or the thunderstorm slightly subsides, we will be able to find a place to stay.

As the man thought of this, he gently lifted the little girl's arm and took off the portable crystal processor. He studied it for a moment and then stuffed it into his arms.

Right then, his portable crystal processor buzzed hard.

A "ding, ding, ding" communication alert sounded.

As if hearing the familiar ringtone, the little girl, who was thought to be dead by the man, suddenly coughed violently!

The man was shocked.

Listening to the little girl's "thump thump thump thump thump ", her heartbeat getting stronger and stronger, he muttered to himself for a moment, then kneeled on the ground to check on the little girl's condition.

It turned out that the little girl had not been compressed by the ruins.

Two beams crossed on her body and supported the entire floor, forming a small triangular space that was just enough for the little girl to curl up in.

Other than the possible mild concussion, internal trauma, and excessive shock, the little girl had no visible external injuries.

This was truly a miracle!

The man blinked and gently pressed his hand on the little girl's neck. He injected some spiritual energy into her to check her pulse.

He took out his portable crystal processor with his other hand and glanced at the emergency communication number that represented the federal Army on it. He thought for three seconds before he opened the call.

"Hey, hey, Xiao Ling, it's uncle Huo. Are you okay? can you hear me? Xiao Ling, hold on, Xiao Ling!"

A voice with panic mixed with dignity came from the portable crystal processor.

"She's fine."

The man said calmly, "her pulse is about 98 beats per minute, which is slightly higher than the normal value. There are no obvious external injuries, and the Reiki detection did not find any serious internal bleeding or concussion. There seems to be a granular foreign object in her mouth that caused severe coughing, but it did not block her windpipe and is being discharged by itself.

It is estimated that she will regain part of her consciousness in three minutes.

The person on the other side of the portable crystal processor was obviously stunned for a moment.

Then, the other party's voice became more and more majestic.  "This is Colonel Huo Shan of the 338th special combat brigade of the federal Army's Grand desolate war zone! Please inform us of your identity!"

Yang Yi, Deputy Captain of the Ming District hunting police Squadron, mayor of nmau, No. 4898721, has come to leizhe city under orders to arrest the extremely dangerous 'hyena' Zhao lie, a wanted criminal who has fled here and reached the ninth level of the refinement stage!

The man answered smoothly, "this mission has been recorded in advance and entered into the shared database of the military and police. Colonel Huo, please retrieve the relevant information. You should be able to verify my identity.

The other side was silent for five seconds.

They were probably checking and verifying the relevant information.

Five seconds later, the other party heaved a sigh of relief.

"Captain yang, since you're a member of the law enforcement department, you should know the relevant rules."

Huo Shan said in a deep voice, "leizhe city has been invaded by a beast tide. The city is in danger. Everyone, especially cultivators, must be under the unified command and management of the federal Army in accordance with the war regulations. Is there a problem?"

yes, reporting to the Colonel. No problem. Report over!

Although he did not answer the video call, the man who claimed to be Yang Yi immediately straightened his back, thighs, and toes. His expression was extremely serious.

"Describe your situation." Huo Shan said.

I've only been in leizhe city for three days, and before I could find 'hyena' Zhao lie, I encountered a beast tide outbreak. I was caught in an explosion while fighting the demon beasts and was unconscious for at least three hours. When I woke up, everyone around me was dead. On my way to escape, I saved the owner of this portable crystal processor.

Yang Yi pressed his lower abdomen and let out a weak muffled groan.  I used up all my spiritual energy and magical equipment. There are signs of serious internal bleeding, five of my ribs are broken, and my spine is suspected to have a compressive fracture. When I was fighting with the nether Wolf just now, the muscles in my left leg were torn in large areas, which affected my normal movements.

Other than that, there are no fatal injuries.
