This time, when the Mutant Beast horde had swarmed them, their numbers were nearing in the 800,000s. It was a force that was almost 20 times larger than the humans, and if it wasn’t for the chaos in between the different races or their leaders being killed before the horde collapsed, the town of humans would definitely have been killed. Many of them were already prepared to die, and when the ending came and they were still alive, they could not help but cheer in relief.
Some of them had literally fainted on the ground the moment they saw the Mutant Beasts dispersing. They had been at battle for so long, and had pushed themselves beyond the limits of their Stamina and Spirit.
“Long live Boss Yue!!”
“Boss Yue you’re awesome!!”
“…….”
Not long after, Yue Zhong, Hu Yi and the rest slowly appeared at the town entrance. All the surviving experts immediately erupted in a earth-shaking cheer when they saw them. Passionate and thankful gazes fell on them.
Against the beast horde, if it wasn’t for Yue Zhong’s superb command of the situation, as well as his courage and bravery, even taking care of the Type 3 Mutant Green Jiao-Python, no one in the town would have been left alive. This was truly a heartfelt appreciation from every expert present.
Amidst the cheers, the upper echelons of the Scarlet Phoenix Triad had a complicated look as they gazed at the party.
One of the Scarlet Phoenix Elders, Liu Ling Ling whispered to Ding Lie: “Boss!! Now is the time where he’s at his weakest! Shall we take him out!”
Anyone could see that Yue Zhong’s party had been through a gruelling battle, and were at their limits. It was truly their weakest condition. The Scarlet Phoenix Triad had managed to establish themselves in Guilin City precisely because they were not some merciful or kind people. Taking advantage when their opponents were weak had been a normal occurrence in their manner of handling things.
Ding Lei gazed at the party for a long while, before shaking and saying: “No! If we act now, we might not be able to kill him! If we can’t get a sure kill, we will suffer from his retaliation.”
As the cheers went on, Yue Zhong went back to his own site and began to rest, after fighting in so many life-and-death battles consecutively, he was also feeling extremely exhausted, instantly falling asleep when he laid down.
The rest of the experts also left for their own places within the town to rest.
As for the 200+ ordinary soldiers that Yue Zhong had brought specifically to help construct defences, under Larman’s command, they began to sweep up all the corpses of the Type 2 Mutant Beasts, the other higher-level Mutant Beasts and kept watch over them, including the Type 3 Mutant Beast corpse. These were after all valuable treasures.
On the second day, when most of the experts had just woken up, they were summoned by Yue Zhong to the main square.
In the open square of the town, the human experts gathered one by one.
Over 3,000 people had come on the hunt for the Type 3 Mutant Beast, as of now, only 900 of them remained. The rest of the 2,000 plus people had died at the jaws of the Mutant Beast horde. However, for the surviving experts, almost everyone of them gained a huge increase in their combat abilities.
Zheng Tu also brought the rest of the Great God Triad towards the square and found a spot to sit down.
“Where’s the Scarlet Phoenix Triad?” Zheng Tu swept his gaze left and right, but did not discover them, and he started to feel uneasy in his heart.
Right at this time, a chief of the Divine Dragon Triad, Zhang Zhi Hao, whose looks were insignificant, came up to Zheng Tu and said: “Old Zheng!! Seems like something’s off!! Looking at the crowd, don’t tell me Boss Yue wants to absorb all of us?”
While this Divine Dragon Triad sounded extremely valiant, and could be confused with the Heavenly Dragon Triad, in truth, they were comprised of 7 core members, who were good brothers, as well as a few other outer members. The Chief, Zhang Zhi Hao, had a so-so strength, and his enhancement level was 33. However, his character was smooth, and he had a lot of connections, and he had some form of bonds with Zheng Tu.
Zheng Tu eyed Zhang Zhi Hao and spoke solemnly: “Yesterday, it was all due to Boss Yue, that we’re all alive now. If Boss Yue wants to take all of us in, then there’s nothing wrong with it, just treat it that we’re giving our lives to him.”
Zhang Zhi Hao’s expression turned frigid as he replied: “Bro Zheng. Yes, it’s true that he saved us. But our businesses had been based on our own efforts. If he wants to take them all, isn’t that inappropriate?”
When Zheng Tu heard those words, he also could not help but turn silent. Modern society was like this, even though Zheng Tu was grateful to Yue Zhong for saving their lives, but the thought of handing over his business, even Zheng Tu felt a little reluctant.
In the square, the majority of the people began to engage in d
