Divine-level Base-Chapter 95: The Loser’s End

"Don’t panic, everyone! There may be a lot of these monsters, but they’re weak—nothing more than lambs to the slaughter! Just treat them like moving targets, and you can take them out with ease. We have plenty of ammunition. Wiping them out is just a matter of using up some bullets!"

After taking down more than a dozen of the humanoid monsters, Li Xuan Yi let out a hearty laugh and said nonchalantly,

"That’s right! They’re just some Low Level monsters! There are over two hundred of us here. If each of us just takes out twenty of them, we can easily annihilate the entire horde!"

"Exactly! Twenty each doesn’t sound so hard!"

"..."

The students of the Celestial Pride Class were no longer nervous, and they all smiled in relief. Each of them carried a large rucksack, and they had an average of 1,000 rounds of ammunition per person. They had fired less than a hundred rounds on the way here, leaving them with more than enough to annihilate the monsters.

Marksmanship was one of the Skills all Warriors of the Celestial Pride Class had to master, so they weren’t the least bit afraid of these zombie-like monsters.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

When the zombie-like monsters closed to within five hundred meters of the Celestial Pride Class students, a volley of gunshots rang out. A hail of bullets infused with Spiritual Power slammed into the bodies of the creatures.

The Spiritual Power Bullets blasted fist-sized holes in the monsters’ bodies, sending severed limbs flying through the air.

However, unless their heads were blown apart or the red, heart-like orb in their chests was destroyed, the zombie-like monsters would struggle back to their feet and continue to charge at the students of the Celestial Pride Class.

"Slowdown Technique!"

A series of incantations rang out, and streaks of gray magical light descended upon the zombie-like monsters.

Bathed in the gray magical light, the zombie-like monsters immediately grew sluggish.

The moment the charging monsters slowed down, they were knocked to the ground by the ones behind them and subsequently trampled.

Once the legion of zombie-like monsters slowed down, their heads and the cores in their chests were blown apart by countless bullets infused with Spiritual Power.

The students of the Celestial Pride Class could hit the bullseye on a hundred-meter fixed target with over ninety percent accuracy. Once the monsters slowed, they were no different from stationary targets.

The few zombie-like monsters that managed to slip through the students’ hail of fire were swiftly dispatched by Shu Feng’s Black Dog Illusion Demon or by the other Celestial Pride Class students using their various Spiritual Abilities.

The fierce battle lasted for a full hour, and the students of the Celestial Pride Class annihilated the several thousand zombie-like monsters without taking a single casualty.

"This city is called Tando City. It was once part of a vast empire known as the Kasa Empire. According to the data we’ve recovered from within the city, Tando City came from the Celestial Wind Continent."

"After the Celestial Wind Continent was devoured by the Void Demon Realm, Tando City fell into the Erosion Realm as a world fragment. All of Tando City’s residents were turned into these zombie-like monsters."

"To be precise, these monsters are humans who have been corrupted by the Power of Void Demon."

"You’ve been wondering in your hearts why you, too, must go to war in the future. Well, I’ll tell you now. If our world were to fall into the hands of the Void Demon Realm, every single person would become fodder for the Void Demons. These monsters, corrupted by the Power of Void Demon, are what you and your loved ones would become."

Gelong pointed at the countless zombie-like monsters on the ground below and said coldly,

At his words, a chill ran through everyone present. No one wanted to be transformed into one of those grotesque, terrifying monsters.

"Perhaps you’re thinking that if our world falls, you can still escape to the Black Tortoise Realm, the Andoras World, or the Gulondo World."

A hint of mockery flashed in Gelong’s eyes as he continued flatly, "But you can forget about that. The Black Tortoise Realm, the Andoras World, and the Gulondo World are all already inside the Erosion Realm. These Three Great Realms are in grave danger, only barely managing to resist the Void Demon Realm’s encroachment. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, those three realms will collapse and perish long before our own. Once our world is destroyed, there will be nowhere left to run."

The gazes of many Celestial Pride Class students wavered. Gelong’s words had extinguished their last sliver of hope.

"World fragment from which Source Power can be drawn has been detected."

A notification chimed in Shu Feng’s mind.

Shu Feng’s heart skipped a beat, a flicker of excitement in his eyes. ’Source Power?’

For Shu Feng, Source Power was the most Top Level Cultivation Resource. He needed it to open more Spiritual Meridians, implant more Divinity, and practice all sorts of Secret Techniques.

A fervent glint flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes. ’That direction... it’s Tando City! There’s Source Power in this abandoned city! Or rather, this world fragment can be converted into Source Power.’

Gelong said, "All right! Let’s head back now!"

Hong Chao asked curiously, "Teacher Ge, aren’t we going inside?"

Many of the Celestial Pride Class students looked at the ruins of Tando City, their eyes also glinting with curiosity.

Gelong said, "Who knows what kinds of monsters are lurking in those ruins. Once we enter the city, we can no longer guarantee your safety. If you want to explore this city, wait until you’re strong enough to come back on your own."

A female student from Celestial Pride Class 9, Zhang Ruomei, asked curiously, "Teacher Ge, we must have explored the abandoned city of Tando City many times before. Why are there still so many humanoid monsters?"

"You shattered the monsters’ heads and their central cores, which is equivalent to killing them once. But they had already died once before. You can’t truly kill them unless you use a Flame infused with Spiritual Power to incinerate their corpses, or you transport their bodies away from these ruins."

"There are hundreds of thousands of monsters like these in these ruins! How many resources would it take to get rid of all of them? Besides, if we did kill them all, where else would we find such a safe training ground for your internship?" Gelong explained.

"All right! Let’s head back!"

Gelong and the other Celestial Pride Class head teachers then led the students in the direction of Spirit Mirror City.

Every student in the Celestial Pride Class was an elite, a future Great Spirit Master, or even a potential Spirit Sect disciple. Shuijing High School treasured them; their safety had to be absolutely guaranteed during this internship. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have dispatched nine experts of the Spirit Sect Realm to act as guards.

"It’s an ambush! Prepare for battle!"

「An hour later.」

The head teacher of Class 7, Zhang Yulan, narrowed her beautiful eyes, drew her Spiritual Spear, and shouted sharply,

The expression on every Celestial Pride Class student’s face changed instantly. They quickly cast the Spirit Shield Technique, scattered, and began searching for cover.
