“Then I’ll be leaving first!”
Chen Shu got up and, with his Space Rabbit, departed the pavilion.
“Thankfully, he arrived…”
Fu Ning gazed at the conspicuous ‘Han’ character on Chen Shu’s back, filled with confidence in him.
Soon after, Chen Shu silently left the area, heading directly for the location Fu Ning had informed him of.
What Chen Shu didn’t see was that the border of the Seven Northern Spirit Nations had, unbeknownst to anyone, been enveloped by a faint aura of death, simultaneously encroaching upon the land…
And further away, an endless horde of ferocious beasts could be seen besieging, the sky seemingly eroded by necromantic energy, with a faint black mist lingering…
That direction was Africa!
…
Half a day later,
Chen Shu arrived at the northernmost part of the Seven Northern Spirit Nations.
“Another large batch of materials acquired…”
He whistled, his mood cheerful, as the reserve supplies of a national power were certainly not a small quantity.
“At this pace, the system’s options aren’t too difficult either…”
He stroked his chin. As long as he collected resources worth ten trillion, he could directly break through to Gold Three-Star, and then he could return home in glory.
“When I return, should I be laden with nuclear bombs, or wear death potions?”
Chen Shu couldn’t help but fantasize, even chuckling to himself.
After a while, riding his Little Yellow, he arrived at the foot of a colossal peak.
“Sky Dome Mountain, this is it…”
Chen Shu murmured, a smile appearing in his eyes.
The resource point of the Seven Nations was located on the other side of the peak.
In no time, Chen Shu ascended to the summit, gazing down at the mist below and murmuring,
“Brother is here to collect the resources! The Little King-grade can prepare to die!”
Concurrently, a bottle of Berserk Potion appeared in his hand, ready to be fed to his contracted spirit.
He had no intention of sneaking in; instead, he planned to openly slay the King-grade Lord, as the materials on its body also held considerable value.
With his strength, operating at full capacity, it wouldn’t take too long, and it wouldn’t affect the resources of the Southern Clarity Nation below.
Whoosh—
Riding Little Yellow, he plunged downwards at extreme speed, piercing through the mist and getting a clear view of the scene below the peak.
“Huh?!”
His expression faltered, and he was momentarily bewildered.
Below, three King-grade Lords were gathered, discussing something amongst themselves.
And in the four directions surrounding them, ferocious beasts of various levels were scattered, exuding a palpable killing intent, as if about to march to war.
As Chen Shu approached, their gazes all snapped towards him.
The two sides met eyes, and for a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward…
“Roar!”
The three King-grade Lords growled, ferocity blazing in their eyes, as if they were about to attack at any second!
Most importantly, one of the King-grade Lords was the Golden Dragonfish!
Chen Shu licked his lips and said, “That little Dragonfish… having a party without inviting me, huh?”
“Roar!”
The Golden Dragonfish’s eyes were consumed by hatred, having not expected to encounter this damned human again!
Instantly, a terrifying tidal wave materialized out of thin air, crashing towards Chen Shu!
“Brother’s making a run for it!”
Chen Shu immediately mounted Little Yellow and pulled away, not prepared for a fight.
If it were just one King-grade Lord, he would still have the confidence to deal with it easily, but facing three, even if he could win, it would destroy the resources of the Seven Northern Spirit Nations, not to mention the numerous subordinates following them.
“Roar!”
In an instant, the three King-grade Lords took to the air, followed closely by tens of thousands of powerful ferocious beasts, initiating a pursuit of Chen Shu.
“Damn it! Fu Ning is messing with me, right? Wasn’t it just one Lord?”
Chen Shu rubbed his head, not expecting this turn of events.
Logically, the Seven Northern Spirit Nations had already been breached, and the Shark Emperor wouldn’t have left too many combat forces here. The current situation was clearly a bit unusual.
However, he didn’t have time to ponder; his priority was to lure all the ferocious beasts away first.
The resource point of the Seven Nations was still there, meaning the beasts hadn’t noticed it. They were just coincidentally gathered here.
Time passed gradually.
The two sides, one pursuing and one fleeing, soon arrived at the northern border of the Seven Nations, where the vast sea could be faintly seen.
“Almost there…”
Chen Shu estimated the distance. If he teleported back now, he could pack up and take the resources.
But just as he was about to leave, his expression abruptly froze as he looked towards the northern sea.
The horizon of the sea seemed to be shrouded in darkness, a vast expanse of black, exuding a terrifying oppressive aura!
And on the surface of the sea, countless ferocious beasts were stepping onto the water, the leading beasts all emanating a dreadful aura of death, like creatures returned from hell!
“Pincer attack?!”
Chen Shu’s brow furrowed, feeling as if he had fallen into an ambush.
But there was no reason for Fu Ning to harm him!
Just as Chen Shu prepared to teleport away, he saw the ferocious beasts pursuing him suddenly change their expressions, their eyes filled with vigilance!
“Hm?”
Chen Shu’s expression faltered, as if he realized something.
The two sides weren't allies?
He no longer remained between them, instead instantly teleporting onto the snowy ground, concealing his aura.
As expected, the horde of ferocious beasts, led by the Golden Dragonfish, did not leave but instead gazed towards the sea beasts with battle intent!
Approximately an hour later,
The ferocious beasts from the sea officially landed!
Roar!
A white bone dragon, hundreds of meters long, arrived at great speed with the main force, the ghostly flames in its eyes flickering, staring intently at the beasts ahead!
Boom!
The Golden Dragonfish was not to be outdone, a massive wave churning around its body, displaying astonishing might!
The two sides roared incessantly, seemingly communicating something.
“This group of beasts?”
Chen Shu stroked his chin, musing, “Creatures from the [Altar of Death]?”
The top three异空间 (dimensional spaces) on Blue Star were China’s [Dragon’s Abyss], the Free Alliance’s [Demon’s Lair], and Africa’s [Altar of Death]!
The creatures within them represented the Dragon, Demon, and Undead races respectively!
The ferocious beast horde before him possessed terrifying might, and most of them were Undead, naturally leading Chen Shu to associate them with the [Altar of Death].
“The two sides aren’t allied?”
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise in his eyes, murmuring, “The situation is becoming more chaotic now…”
