Chapter 112: Ch 112- Beast Tide (6) [Bonus]
Li Jian walked at the very front of the group, with the Origin Soul Realm cultivators following closely behind him and behind them were the Origin Sea Realm cultivators, forming a long line that stretched all the way back toward the camp.
As soon as they left the tents, Mo Yuan saw hundreds of vehicles waiting outside.
The vehicles looked somewhat similar to the XUVs he had seen before but their bodies were much larger and sturdier. Strange patterns of light could be seen running across their surface and faint waves of Primordial Qi could be felt coming from within.
’These must be Primordial Qi cars.’
Mo Yuan’s eyes flashed with curiosity.
These vehicles could reach speeds of 150 to 200 kilometers per hour. With them, the journey to Lin Jian Base would be much faster and more efficient than traveling on foot.
Lin Jian Base was about 80 kilometers away from their current base. At a speed of 150 kilometers per hour, it would take around thirty-two minutes to reach it. If they traveled at 200 kilometers per hour, they could arrive in only twenty-four minutes.
Of course, traveling through the wilderness at full speed was another matter.
The roads were not completely safe and they could encounter ferocious beasts at any moment.
Soon, Mo Yuan and Ye Fei entered one of the vehicles. The driver was another Origin Soul Realm cultivator.
After everyone had gotten inside, Li Jian’s vehicle slowly moved forward.
"Lets go!"
His voice echoed through the convoy.
One after another, the Primordial Qi cars began moving.
Hundreds of vehicles traveled together, carrying thousands of cultivators and soldiers. From above, the scene would probably look like a giant steel dragon crawling across the wilderness.
Mo Yuan looked through the window, watching the massive convoy move forward. The sight was rather captivating.
However, the atmosphere inside the vehicle was far heavier than the scene outside suggested.
Ye Fei forced a smile and clenched his fists.
"Buddy, let’s not lose hope. We just need to protect ourselves."
He tried to sound enthusiastic but Mo Yuan could clearly see the fear hidden deep within his eyes.
Mo Yuan looked ahead through the windshield before giving a small nod.
"Yes."
His voice was calm.
The journey was surprisingly smooth.
There were no major attacks from beasts along the way and the convoy moved forward without stopping. About half an hour later, the massive walls of Lin Jian Base finally appeared in the distance.
As the vehicles got closer, Mo Yuan looked through the window and carefully observed the base.
The first thing he noticed was the lack of a formation.
Unlike Cang Lan Base, which was protected by a powerful defensive formation that covered the entire base, Lin Jian Base seemed to rely entirely on its thick walls.
There were also no towering skyscrapers inside.
Most of the buildings were low and simple, with only a few slightly taller buildings scattered around the base.
Mo Yuan couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
’There really is a huge difference between a Tier 2 Base and a Tier 3 Base.’
He had spent most of his time cultivating in Cang Lan Base and he had already become used to its huge buildings and various facilities.
Compared to Cang Lan Base, Lin Jian Base looked almost like a rural area.
However, Mo Yuan did not underestimate the base.
A base that could survive in this dangerous wilderness and remain standing until now naturally had something to rely on.
The gates of Lin Jian Base were tightly shut.
On top of the walls, rows of cultivators were already standing in position. Many of them were holding special guns, their expressions serious as they watched the approaching convoy.
Soon, the convoy arrived before the gates.
As the first vehicle stopped, Li Jian stepped out.
Four other Origin Lord Realm cultivators followed behind him.
On the other side, two Origin Lord Realm cultivators from Lin Jian Base quickly came forward to meet them.
The two groups exchanged a few words but Mo Yuan could not hear their conversation from his position.
After a short while, the gates slowly opened.
"Enter!"
Li Jian’s voice came from the front.
One after another, the vehicles entered Lin Jian Base and Mo Yuan and Ye Fei also stepped out of their vehicle.
Inside the base, there were already many tents prepared.
The preparations were clearly done in advance, every team had its own designated area.
Mo Yuan followed Ye Fei and the others toward their tent.
Once they arrived, everyone quickly formed a line and stood in formation and there was an invisible pressure hanging over everyone.
Mo Yuan quietly activated his Copy and Paste Talent.
His gaze swept across the cultivators around him.
One after another, information appeared in his mind.
There were quite a few cultivators with Ultimate Grade Cultivation Talent and their special talents were nothing impressive.
Some possessed elemental talents but most were only Inferior Grade or Standard Grade, to Mo Yuan they were basically useless.
He continued observing for a while before finally stopping.
At that moment, Li Qiang arrived. He walked into the tent and looked around at everyone for several seconds.
His expression was much heavier than before.
"Everyone, listen carefully."
His deep voice immediately silenced the remaining whispers.
"The Origin Lord Realm cultivators and I will be responsible for dealing with the ten Peak Realm beasts."
As he said this, Li Qiang’s expression became even more serious.
"We will also try our best to kill as many high-realm beasts as possible."
"The rest of you have only one mission."
"Kill as many beasts as you can."
Li Qiang’s voice became cold.
"But remember this. No matter how dangerous the situation becomes, no one is allowed to abandon the battlefield and flee."
"Anyone who leaves without permission will be labeled a deserter."
His eyes swept across everyone.
"If they are found later, they will be imprisoned."
He paused for a moment.
"Or killed."
The entire tent became completely silent and no one dared to speak.
"The beast tide will reach Lin Jian Base in one hour."
Li Qiang clenched his fists.
"That’s much earlier than we anticipated."
A trace of helplessness appeared in his eyes.
"Prepare your weapons and follow me to the main gate."
Soon, the briefing ended.
Mo Yuan followed Li Qiang with the rest of Team 14.
When they reached the main gate, he saw six other Origin Lord Realm cultivators already waiting there.
There were seven Origin Lord Realm cultivators in total.
Mo Yuan’s eyes immediately flashed and he quietly activated his talent.
Information about the seven Origin Lord Realm cultivators appeared in his mind one after another.
All seven possessed Ultimate Grade Cultivation Talent.
As for special talent, only one person had it. He was the late stage Origin Lord Realm cultivator from Lin Jian Base.
Human: Lu Yang
Cultivation Talent: Ultimate Grade
Strength Talent: Standard Grade
Mo Yuan glanced at him.
’Pity. It’s useless to me.’
A Standard Grade Strength Talent was no longer enough to attract his interest.
Soon, the massive gates opened and everyone began walking outside.
The seven Origin Lord Realm cultivators moved to the very front and behind them followed the remaining cultivators and soldiers.
Thousands of people marched together.
Looking at the enormous number of people following behind the seven Origin Lord Realm cultivators, Mo Yuan suddenly felt as if he had entered a movie.
On the massive walls behind them, countless soldiers were already standing with their Primordial Qi weapons.
Everyone was waiting for the beast tide to arrive.
Mo Yuan looked toward the distant horizon.
Even he could faintly feel the ground trembling.
The beast tide was coming and judging from the expressions of everyone around him, morale was already at its lowest.
No one knew how many people would still be standing when the beast tide was over.
