Abyss Summoner-Chapter 164 - 161: Camp Observations

"Skeletons? These skeletons can actually move." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Stepping into Order, Wang Feng’s pupils immediately shrank. At this moment, it wasn’t humans who stood inside the gate to greet him but a series of ash-white skeletons.

These skeletons each held a weapon, their eyes eerie, emanating a blue Soul Fire.

"Under my command, there’s an individual who can turn dead bodies into skeletons. These skeletons are usually responsible for the camp’s hunting tasks, specializing in killing insects!" Chen Feng walked alongside, looking at the swath of skeletons, speaking lightly.

Hearing Chen Feng’s statement, Wang Feng turned his gaze to the Skeleton Warriors.

On the road leading to the abode, the skeletons stood in neat rows, with bloodstains on their bones. Paired with steel sabers and white bones, they were especially imposing.

This land has long been tainted, with countless endless thugs, fierce robbers, and insects, beasts, monsters, and so on...

But now, with the emergence of these skeletons, all these enemies were cut down under the blade. Scenes even appeared in Wang Feng’s eyes, fearless Skeleton Warriors charging forward like a torrent, submerging enemies under a sea of white bones.

What’s more, these Skeleton Warriors would also grow. Through constant killing, they would absorb the aura of the deceased from the corpses, and one day, they might even ascend to Bronze, or even higher tiers!

Initially, Wang Feng felt somewhat proud of the elite soldiers around him, but upon seeing Chen Feng’s Skeleton Warriors, the last traces of pride on his face were torn away. He knew that once a battle started, these death-defying skeletons could quickly turn those elite soldiers into minced meat.

Bullets need to be loaded.

But skeletons don’t need to rest. As long as their soul doesn’t extinguish, even with half a body left or just a head, they will crawl up to the enemy and bite their throat.

This time, Wang Feng’s main task was to investigate the strength of Order, even though the war advocates believed that the Economic Development Zone had been destroyed, and this so-called camp was just thrown together like paper and couldn’t withstand much resistance.

It would be better to merge into Bridge East and combine the forces to withstand the external calamities and monsters.

But from the moment he stepped inside, Wang Feng knew those people were wrong, and very wrong!

This place was more prosperous than any of them imagined. On the wasteland, it didn’t take long to erect such a camp. Skeletons, houses, food seemed to be blossoming everywhere in dense masses, countless people moving around like ants, without the starvation and misery outside, but with faces full of hope, even smiles.

Everyone could eat their fill!

From this point alone, it was clear how immense the potential hidden in this camp was!

More importantly, thousands of people living together not only didn’t show dirty, messy, and poor conditions but were instead orderly and neat, giving an indescribable feeling.

The more Wang Feng walked, the more shocked he became, and the more solemn his expression grew.

At this moment, Wang Feng no longer had the same fear as before, but more respect, as he had for Feng Zhiyong.

After all, to build such a powerful shelter, Order, in such a short time, this man deserved such treatment.

.........

Night fell.

Several people sat in the courtyard, a bonfire burning nearby, but instead of ordinary wood, it was a creature called Candle Fire Insect’s eyes. These insects could emit bright light in the darkness, and using their eyes in place of wood could maintain a flame for three hours without extinguishing, with impressive brightness.

At this moment, Chen Feng sat in the center, dressed in flax-colored clothes, his expression calm, eyes rippling like a spring, looking harmless from the outside, worlds apart from when he subdued the Thunder Prison Dragon Lion before.

Yet, it was this man who established Order in the ruins, sheltering tens of thousands from harm, with four major Summoned Beasts under his command, cutting down countless foes along the way.

Chen Feng.

His prestige in the Economic Development Zone was unmatched.

Currently, around Chen Feng’s residence were skeletons wielding steel sabers, and solemn-faced human warriors, while on either side of him sat a group of introverted but sharp-eyed experts.

Wei Xun, Xu Zhe, Du Men, Zhang Jianxiong, Ma Chen, Liang Jingyao, Liu Haoyang, Elemental Master.

At this time, all the professionals of the camp sat down; these were subordinates Chen Feng subdued along the way, each a capable warrior.

Before everyone was a long rectangular table, a full ten meters long, filled entirely with meat and vegetables, a rare sight outside, now laid out in abundance on the table, inadvertently showcasing the host’s grandeur.

In front of the table, a Four-Eyed Wolf Spider was bound and hanging upside down. This highly venomous creature could easily kill an elephant, but its venom glands had been removed, and all eight legs severed. Now it hung pathetically under the tree.

It was still alive, continuously writhing and screeching, in apparent agony.

At this moment, a chef walked over, carrying a large deboning knife. He approached the Four-Eyed Wolf Spider, plunging the knife into its chest armor with force, slicing it open, letting blood and innards spill onto the ground. But he wasn’t done; the chef sliced horizontally, completely stripping off its insect armor, pulling out the tender insect meat to roast over the charcoal.

His actions were smooth and uninterrupted.

More unbelievably, he was just an ordinary person, having not awakened any abilities, yet he showed no fear facing the Four-Eyed Wolf Spider. His manner, as if slaughtering a fat pig, was so efficient that even Wang Feng was left wide-eyed.

Clearly, this wasn’t his first time slaughtering a bug.

"Lieutenant Chen, thank you for the dinner, but... isn’t this a bit too extravagant?" The meal before his eyes was a luxury; even in Bridge East where he had some minor authority, Wang Feng had never been treated to such a feast.

By now, Wang Feng’s attitude had already changed, with an undertone of goodwill in his voice and without any pretense.

"This is nothing. You’ve come from afar; naturally, I must extend my hospitality. Insect meat might be fresh and tender, but it’s lacking a bit of chewiness. Wei Xun, bring out that horse and slaughter it; this is the real main course today!" Chen Feng grinned, appearing unconcerned.

"Yes!" Sitting to the side, Wei Xun suddenly stood up, and Wang Feng immediately sensed a wave of killing intent, like countless beasts roaring in the jungle, resounding beside him.

"Swish!"

The blade flashed!

The horse’s head fell to the ground, and blood instantly soaked the ground.

Zhang Luoyu’s prized horse, capable of traveling a hundred miles a day, trampling hordes of insects, had its head split open with a single cut, collapsing to the ground with a thud.

Chen Feng appeared indifferent, his tone calm, "The blood from the heart of a mutated horse is a great tonic. Wei Xun, pour it into a wine cup for me."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xun swung his knife again to cut into the mutated horse’s heart, and soon, a gush of bright red inky blood was streamed into the cup, then placed before Chen Feng.

This scene made Wang Feng’s hair stand on end, his mind already numb; even surviving the apocalypse for so long, he had never seen such a brute!

Intimidation!

Wang Feng was no fool; he knew this was Chen Feng’s demonstration of power.

Even though he had braced himself mentally, witnessing this bloody scene made his heart seem clenched tight, leaving him breathless.

The mutated horse was massive, statuesque, and remarkably fast, sprinting on a flat road even quicker than a car, and its strength wasn’t weak. Its hooves akin to four iron hammers made it an exceptional steed!

But this prized horse in Bridge East now lay in a pool of blood, its body separated from its head, clearly killed with one strike.

Ignoring Wang Feng’s thoughts, Chen Feng raised the cup Wei Xun handed over and downed the blood from the heart in one go, swallowing it into his belly.

Hot!

This was Chen Feng’s first impression.

The faint taste of blood filled his mouth, yet his chest felt burning hot as though he’d swallowed a fireball, intensely heated.

The mutated horse contained abundant blood energy, with eighty percent of its body energy concentrated in its heart. Even though it was a tall, majestic horse, the heart’s blood barely filled just one cup, its concentration comparable to, if not exceeding, royal jelly.

Slaughtering the horse for its blood.

Accomplished effortlessly.

At this moment, a smear of blood stained Chen Feng’s lips, his eyes like icy stars, brows sharp as if brushed, his broad chest exuding a might rivaling a hundred insects.

Even Wang Feng, who’d seen his share of masters in Bridge East, couldn’t help but secretly praise the other, truly an outstanding figure!
