Abyss Summoner-Chapter 133 - 131: Homeland

The matter has come to a close.

Although sixteen members of the search party perished, the bandits led by the Mountain Boss were all executed, blood for blood. Chen Feng once again proved his strength.

Any offender.

Kill without mercy!

A powerful support.

This is the apocalypse. Compared to a timid leader, such a ruthless and decisive ruler is more likely to earn recognition.

This strengthened the camp’s cohesion once more, not only among survivors but even Liu Haoyang and Ma Chen, the two professionals, aligned themselves completely, daring not to have any divided loyalties.

Chen Feng’s rule is becoming increasingly solid.

In the apocalypse, mere survival is a luxury. Witnessing the perilous outside environment, the stable life within the camp quickly integrated the survivors; they only need to perform labor to exchange for food and safety, making it a fair trade.

The value of the Undead Mage became apparent. Compared to the individual bravery of other Summoned Beasts, its ability lay more in its sea of corpses tactics.

Skeleton soldiers have already been deployed.

In a few days, the Undead Mage reincarnated eighty-three skeletons. Although weak individually, dozens standing together create an imposing appearance. Whether walking by, they seem like ghost soldiers on the march. Due to the deathly aura emanating from their bones, even the surrounding temperature drops several degrees.

Most terrifying is that as long as Soul Fire isn’t extinguished, these skeleton soldiers will find ways to kill the enemy even if only their heads remain!

This skeleton squad, aside from humanoid skeletons, includes several animal skeletons, among which a rhino skeleton particularly draws attention. This was a mutated creature from the zoo found by the search party after it had been fatally attacked and its body gnawed beyond recognition, but the bones remained intact. The search party exhausted considerable effort transporting it back to the camp.

It’s robust, standing three meters high and seven meters long.

A typical adult rhino is at most five meters long, clearly indicating mutation after the apocalypse began, with a corresponding growth in size.

And now, this mutated rhino has been resurrected in another form.

The skeletal rhino is enormous and powerful, with sturdy limbs, some remnants of decayed flesh still hanging on, while the horn at the nose tip is perfectly preserved. The ghostly white horn resembles a polished spear, capable of toppling low houses with a savage charge.

Besides, several skeletal dogs and sheep linger around it. Compared to humanoid skeletons, these beast skeletons have a more visual impact, especially when stared at by blue ethereal Soul Fire, evoking instinctual fear.

Undead Legion.

This is Chen Feng’s legion.

Compared to humans, these numb, cold-blooded skeletons are far more terrifying. They execute their master’s every order, their fearless nature allowing them to unleash all their combat potential!

Nearby camp insects are eradicated.

Upon sight of insects, these skeletons swarm them. Even the Red Rock Beetle known for its defense is toppled by the rhino skeleton, subsequently engulfed by the rest of the skeletons.

To increase attack power, Chen Feng even equipped some skeletons with blades. In the chaotic ruins, dozens of knife-wielding skeletons launch frenzied charges—a scene with great impact.

A single day of slaughter brought the camp hundreds of pounds of insect meat.

Moreover, some insect shells are hard and can be fashioned into shields, though unsightly, potentially saving lives at critical moments.

Such shields are highly welcomed by the combat and search party members.

Outside the camp, survivors live lives fraught with uncertainty, facing countless monsters and solving food issues. Yet here, aside from daily sustenance, good work might even earn some jerky.

No words can describe it.

Survivors living here for some time have slowly dispelled their fears and regained hope for tomorrow.

Survey, combat, medical, logistics, research, search.

As the camp develops, teams for these six departments are extremely short-staffed. Anyone willing can find suitable work.

In life.

Trash must not be discarded randomly!

With thousands living together, daily trash amounts are astonishing. Random disposal can breed bacteria and disease.

Lacking medical care and practitioners or light priests, bacterial outbreaks could severely impact.

The survey team routinely patrols. Any random trash disposal incurs loss of a day’s rations, though no physical punishment.

Of course.

For female survivors, food is secondary. What they value most is... zero harassment.

Disasters breed chaos.

In the wild, women as a vulnerable group endure harsher treatment than men.

Compared to merely reduced food penalties, punishment for lustful offenders is harsh—hanging on flagpoles for a full day, followed by expulsion from the camp.

No amount of begging will open camp doors to them.

Gentle persuasion is too slow. High pressure better reveals the camp’s boundaries and instills enough fear to prevent offenses.

The camp may have deficits, but feeding everyone is a significant accomplishment.

Compared to before.

This flame of Order has evolved from a spark to a torch.

Rules and commands impose on everyone.

They’ve already lost everything in the chaos.

[Order]

For all, this becomes their new home. Everyone strives, fights, perseveres for the future.
