Chapter 58: A Wild Beast Tide, Producing Lightning With A Flip Of The Hand
Chapter 58: A Wild Beast Tide, Producing Lightning With A Flip Of The Hand
After they exterminated the Lone Wolf Bandits, Meng Lei and the others resumed their journey back home. Jonah and the other two constantly chattered, their eyes brimming with worship and idolization when they looked at Meng Lei. Everything they said could be summed up into one sentence:
“Big Brother Meng Lei, you’re so awesome!”
Meng Lei replied with a smile, “You guys will also be just as powerful in the future if you cultivate well!”
Then, he secretly deposited all the gold coins in the spatial ring into the system, making his wealth surge by 300,000 gold coins!
Adding what he previously had to it, he now had a total of 480,000 gold coins!
This didn’t even include the magic cores, jewels, weapons, and other things inside the spatial ring! Should he sell those treasures, he would earn yet another hefty sum of money!
I’ve really struck it big this time!
Meng Lei fingered the spatial ring, reveling in the pleasant sensation of receiving a huge windfall. He was in such a fantastic mood that snot bubbles were practically forming at his nose!
Of course, the biggest gain is still this spatial ring that’s worth several million gold coins!
There was no doubt about the spatial ring’s functionality. With it, Meng Lei could now hunt magical beasts to his heart’s content without any reservations!
Although the 50 cubic meters space wasn’t particularly spacious, it was sufficient to store a lot of magic cores. Meng Lei’s mind had already drifted all the way to the Magical Beast Forest. He almost climaxed as he fantasized about hunting and killing magical beasts, gathering magic cores, and making a huge windfall!
The magic carpet was very fast. After two hours of flight, they finally returned to Magical Beast Village. However, the scene before their eyes gave the four of them a huge shock instead!
A beast tide!
A beast tide was happening again!
All over the mountains and the plains, wild beasts gathered into surging torrents and raced toward Magical Beast Village like a bunch of thunderclouds. It was as if they wanted to drown the tiny Magical Beast Village within the torrents of wild beasts!
...
Dozens of young adults stood atop the village walls, their eyes full of horror and hopelessness!
These young adults were the team of guards led by Captain Hudders. As Magical Beast Village members, they frequently fought against beast tides, so every one of them was a seasoned warrior. Typical beast tides didn’t faze them at all!
However, the beast tide this time made everyone incredibly hopeless!
“Why did this happen?”
Hudders stood on top of the walls, staring at the dozen or so magical beasts surrounded in the middle by the beast tide torrents. Apart from hopelessness, there was still only hopelessness on his face!
Fourth-Grade Magical Beast, Iron-Armored Rhinoceros!
Third-Grade Magical Beasts, Mountain-Rendering Pangolin, and Blood-Spotted Snake!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSecond-Grade Magical Beasts, Azure Sky Snake, White Snapping Turtle, Golden-Armored Scorpion, Bramble Rat, Swamp Dragon Turtle, Blood-Toothed Boar, Titan Longhorn Beetle, and Wind Wolf King!
One Fourth-Grade Magical Beast!
Two Third-Grade Magical Beasts!
Eight Second-Grade Magical Beasts!
Countless First-Grade Magical Beasts!
Given their terrifying lineup, how were they supposed to fight against them?
They didn’t even have a sliver of hope at winning!
“Why?
“Why are there so many Magical Beasts in the beast tide this time?”
Hudders didn’t understand. Magical Beast Village was situated at the fringes of the Magical Beast Forest. Usually, one would already be considered especially down on their luck if they ran into a First-Grade Magical Beast. Why had even a high-grade magical beast like the Iron-Armored Rhinoceros shown up this time?
It didn’t make any sense!
However, no matter how absurd it was, the Iron-Armored Rhinoceros had ultimately shown up and had even led a bunch of magical beast underlings to launch a never-before-seen beast tide. Magical Beast Village was currently facing an unprecedented disaster!
“Captain, what should we do?”
The guards trembled with fear. Even their voices were shaking somewhat. The scale of the beast tide had shocked and frightened all of them!
“We can only adopt whatever solution we can according to the situation!”
Captain Hudders slowly expended a breath of air. He said, “Behind us is our home and our family. We have no other choice other than to fight to the death!”
“Our home!”
“Our family!”
A severe jolt went through everyone. The fear in their eyes gradually faded, replaced by absolute resolution and frenzy.
“Captain is right! We have no other choice. The only thing we can do is to fight to the death!”
“If you want to hurt our families, then you’d have to do it over our dead bodies!”
“Fight to the death!”
“Fight to the death!”
Roar!
At this moment, an earth-shattering roar of fury reached them. The Iron-Armored Rhinoceros in the middle of the beast tide roared ferociously into the sky, launching the signal for the beast tide to attack!
Howl!
Hiss!
Woof!
Moo!
Meh!
All the wild beasts responded with their own ferocious cries. The torrential sound waves converged into one, as though an explosive peal of thunder booming throughout the sky!
Roar!
As another ferocious roar rang out, torrents of wild beasts covering every inch of land transformed into horrifying tidal waves and surged toward Magical Beast Village. Dozens of Magical Beasts took the lead and brazenly launched magic attacks!
Rock bullets, water arrows, wind blades, wood thorns, lightning flashes...
First-grade and second-grade magic attacks that covered every expanse of land formed a dense and packed rain of swords that swarmed over in a crushing momentum!
Everyone wore looks of hopelessness upon seeing this. The village walls were made of wood; how were they supposed to withstand magic attacks of this scale?
Moreover, most of them weren’t even Warriors. How were they supposed to withstand the attacks, too?
“T-this... How did it turn out like this?!” action
“Captain! What should we do?!”
“Oh my dragon god...”
“We’re finished!!”
Hudders lost all hope in his heart. All he could do was watch helplessly as the magic attacks approached, ultimately fully occupying his range of vision!
He knew that everything was finished!
Up against such terrifying magic attacks, the village walls would be reduced to rubble, and everyone would be annihilated!
Buzz!
However, just as the rain of magic attacks was about to land, an unexpected turn of events occurred. A transparent silver glow quietly appeared and instantly spanned across the top of the village walls!
Boom, boom, boom!
The dense and packed rain of magic attacks crashed against the silver glow, causing an outburst of brilliant and dazzling fireworks!
“That’s...”
Everyone’s eyes widened!
“A... A magic shield?!” exclaimed Hudders in astonishment.
Hudders hadn’t been mistaken—it was indeed a magic shield. Amid booming explosions, the silver glow perfectly withstood all the attacks, undamaged in the least!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAll of the magic elements dissipated!
The billowing waves of smoke faded away!
The village walls were undamaged and intact!
Everyone was safe and sound!
“It managed to block the attacks?”
The guards had a dazed look in their eyes.
“Who was it? Who had launched the magic shield?”
Hudders looked around him.
Then, he saw a blood-red magic carpet right above him. Someone stood proudly on the magic carpet. The figure looked familiar... Yet like a stranger at the same time!
“That’s...”
Hudders exclaimed in astonishment, “Meng Lei!”
“Long time no see, Captain Hudders!”
The person standing proudly on the magic carpet was exactly Meng Lei. Upon hearing Captain Hudders’ exclamation, Meng Lei turned and smiled at him.
“Captain Hudders, we’ll talk again after I’ve taken care of the beast tide!”
After he spoke, Meng Lei raised his hands. Lightning flashed at his fingertips. Thunder balls quietly formed one after another and shot toward the torrential flood of wild beasts like a machine gun’s bullets!
Boom, boom, boom!
Explosions that shook the heavens and earth rang out with a deafening boom. Smoke and dust instantly enveloped the flood of wild beasts in front of the village walls. Amid an endless stream of screams and cries, severed limbs were thrown out, and blood and flesh flew everywhere!
A large majority of the wild beasts in the beast tide were just normal animals. How could they possibly withstand magic attacks?
After a round of wild booms and violent explosions, the wails and cries of wild beasts filled the place. In just the short span of a few breaths, an immeasurable number of beasts had perished on the spot!
This horrifying scene terribly frightened the other wild beasts. Scared out of their wits, they fled desperately. How would they possibly still have the guts to attack Magical Beast Village?
Roar!
This greatly enraged the Iron-Armored Rhinoceros in the middle of the beast tide. It let out several roars to suppress the alarmed and panicked wild beasts. Then, with another few roars, the dozens of magical beasts surrounding it moved!
The Mountain-Rendering Pangolin, Blood-Spotted Snake, Azure Sky Snake, etc., roared furiously as they charged forward with ferocious momentum. Their eyes gleamed red, as though they wanted to rip Meng Lei, who was standing on the magic carpet, into pieces!
What a shame that what awaited them was a rain of lightning lances that covered every expanse of land instead!
Splurt!
Splurt!
Amidst hair-raising sounds of flesh being stripped away from bone, the Mountain-Rendering Pangolin, Blood-Spotted Snake... All of them were impaled to death by the lightning lances. By the time they charged over to the bottom of the magic carpet, all of them were already dead!
“This...”
Hudders and the guards were totally astounded!
