Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 652 - 373: Arriving at the Evacuation Point, Wu Yuqin’s Request_3

This was their evacuation point; all nearby teams were gathering here to be picked up by transport helicopters.

About 200 people had already converged on this location, and with Ye Feng’s team, the number rose to over 300.

For this reason, the number of Mutated Beings in the area was especially high, particularly Mutated Flying Beasts, which were desperately disrupting the helicopters’ landings.

However, these Mutated Flying Beasts were acting strangely; as they flew, they would sometimes ascend and then descend erratically.

It was as if they were drunk, and they were constantly emitting shrill cries.

Just at this moment, a squadron of fighter jets arrived from afar, firing several cruise missiles that locked onto these Mutated Flying Beasts.

At the same time, from the mountain summit, fireballs, lightning bolts, ice spikes, Wind Blades, and other long-range elemental abilities attacked the Mutated Flying Beasts relentlessly.

Under normal circumstances, these Mutated Flying Beasts would have been able to easily evade these attacks, with half or more likely falling short.

But in their current inebriated state, they were virtually unable to dodge properly, and more than 90% of the attacks hit their marks.

Soon, a bloody path was cleared through the Mutated Flying Beasts that surrounded the mountaintop.

Then five transport helicopters rapidly approached, preparing to extract the people on the summit.

Ye Feng was surprised by the scene unfolding before him but soon his attention was captured by an elegant figure atop the mountain. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Wu Yuqin, dressed in a white combat suit, looked valiant. She was sitting cross-legged with an ancient zither on her knees, playing. She exuded a classic beauty.

As she played, waves of special Sound Waves spread out around her.

Ye Feng sensed briefly and understood that her Sound Wave Ability and Spiritual Power Ability were perfectly combined, producing such a wide-range Illusion Technique attack.

The range of influence of her Sound Waves and the number of affected Mutated Animals surpassed Ye Feng’s own.

This indeed surprised Ye Feng, but there were issues with her abilities as well because such a large-scale attack was dependent on the transmission of Sound Waves.

This meant anyone could block their ears, or scream continuously like these Mutated Animals, emitting other sounds to resist the Sound Wave attacks produced by Wu Yuqin, to some extent.

"However, what’s lost is gained. Considering the strength of her spiritual power combined with her Sound Wave Ability, she can control more than 500 Mutated Beings at once—more than enough to compensate for any shortcomings," Ye Feng evaluated inwardly.

What’s more, Wu Yuqin currently controlled those of the same Realm. If she were to control Mutated Beings of an even lower Realm, the effects would be even more terrifying.

As Ye Feng observed Wu Yuqin, the people on the mountaintop naturally noticed Ye Feng’s team as well.

Many of them doubted their own eyes, but no matter how much they rubbed their eyes or pinched their thighs, everything was telling them this was real and not a dream.

While they were still doubting themselves, Ye Feng had already led his team to the summit.

The people stationed there also turned their complicated gazes towards Ye Feng.

With Wu Yuqin there and the assistance of the Illusion Realm, defending against the attacks of the Mutated Animals was relatively easy, so they did not have the feeling of surviving a catastrophe.

Therefore, their looks at Ye Feng were mixed with admiration and emotion, yet also tinged with a sense of loss.

Ye Feng’s strength made them realize that humanity was about to have its own Guardian God, which was naturally a joyous occasion.

But these were the strongest individuals from each city, considered chosen ones of the heavens. Proud as they were, it was natural to feel lost knowing it was Ye Feng achieving this status beforehand, not them.

Ye Feng, however, had no time to concern himself with their thoughts. Having led the team here, he considered his mission accomplished.

So he waved his hand to signal everyone to assist with the defense, and then he walked straight towards Wu Yuqin.

"What’s the situation now?" Ye Feng asked.

Wu Yuqin was specially responsible for the rescue operations, and she would naturally have more and more comprehensive information than he did.

"The outlook is grim. The area I’m responsible for is still alright; thanks to your team holding the front, the enemy’s main forces can’t infiltrate en masse undetected."

"Plus with your timely warning, the competitors had time to gather in teams for defense, and most of them have made it through."

"But the situation on the western front is very bleak. The competitors there were only aware of the enemy’s proximity after their approach, and many scattered to flee for their lives. It is said that over a hundred people have already been sacrificed on that front, and the number is still increasing."

"If things continue this way, the casualties on the western front alone might reach into the thousands."

"Although the organizers have dispatched Chen Dalong, Bai Junheng, and Fang Ziyuan over there, the situation hasn’t improved much."

"Even because they lack the ability to clear out large areas, it’s not easy to defend the evacuation points now."
