I Stack Attributes in the Apocalypse - Chapter 142

Chapter 142: The Beast Tide Attack!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Ming had a very strange magic power.

His imposing physique made him intimidating, but in a world with mystery factors, physique did not directly represent combat power.

Otherwise, wouldn’t his mountain of flesh make him invincible?

In any case, any creature that made an enemy of Lu Ming felt a certain level of contempt towards him when they launched their attack.

However, after witnessing Lu Ming’s counterattack, that contempt turned into horror and fear..

Between contempt and horror, there was also a silent process—because they really needed time to digest the fact that this guy was a monster.

It was no exception now.

The Six-legged Wolf Bears were exotic beasts and being wild creatures, they had limited intelligence, but they still had instincts.

When the Six-legged Wolf Bears at the side saw the effect of Lu Ming’s punch, some of them immediately stopped in their tracks.

More than ten Six-legged Wolf Bears stared at Lu Ming and fell silent.

Soon, when Lu Ming turned around to look at them, a series of wailing sounded one after another.

He saw the remaining Six-legged Wolf Bear immediately clamped its tail.

A few of them wailed and scattered away, A few of them felt their legs went soft and fell to the ground. Some of them even rolled on the spot, revealing their gray bellies. They stuck out their tongues and curled their claws as they looked at Lu Ming fawningly.

“Who are you trying to act harmless for!?”

Lu Ming showed no mercy.

With a few heavy punches, he turned these Six-legged Wolf Bears into reserve rations of dried meat.

Back in the car, they continued searching for the ancient city ruins.

However, due to the lack of direction and target, their efficiency was extremely low.

Nevertheless, they were not anxious; it was all within their expectations.

Until about half an hour later, they still could find the ruins of the ancient city but Lu Ming vaguely heard a beast roaring coming from the horizon.

That roar was low and muffled, like a combination of a wolf and a bear—this was the howl of the Six-legged Wolf Bear.

However, compared to the Six-legged Wolf Bear they had seen before, the strength of this voice was much stronger.

“Stop!”

The car stopped and the engine was turned off. The three women also stopped talking.

Lu Ming was fully focused on capturing the sound in the distance.

Then, faint human battle cries could be heard.

This made Lu Ming frown.

“Let’s go over there and take a look.”

20 minutes ago.

At the ruins of the ancient city, the new gathering place for the people of Nanxiang in the Black Mist Zone.

Coincidentally, Huo Sheng’s landing point was not far from here, so he quickly rushed over to meet up with Bai Tianyu and the others.

As they walked through the ruins of the ancient city, Huo Sheng looked around with a calm expression, lost in thought.

After a brief tour around the small ruins of the ancient city, Huo Sheng nodded and said softly, “It’s not too bad.”

Bai Tianyu and the others had already entered the Black Mist Zone over ten days ago.

During this period of time, Huo Sheng had been sending people over. Bai Tianyu and the others were busy building this new gathering place. After all, this was the new home of Nanxiang people.

The efforts of the earth-element Awakened individuals had transformed the ruins into a modest settlement – with walls, houses, and everything needed for basic living conditions.

Though rudimentary, it was functional.

There was also a small river nearby, which solved the problem of water resources for the most part.

“However, there is an issue with food.”

Bai Tianyu said, “We haven’t found any edible crops to grow yet. Now, our rations consist of meat from the wild creatures and some wild fruits we pick.”

Pausing for a moment, Bai Tianyu continued, “Most of it is from the Six-legged Wolf Bears. Strangely, the diversity of nearby creatures is quite low, with the Six-legged Wolf Bears being the most numerous, followed by the Black Birds, and then some giant insects that are neither graded nor suitable for human consumption…”

The Six-legged Wolf Bear and the Black Bird were both omnivorous creatures.

They could eat anything, including wild fruits, leaves, and even insects or decaying matter that were basically inedible to humans.

Overall, the species of the nearby creatures were pitifully rare.

This made Huo Sheng’s expression change. After a long while, he smiled bitterly.

“I wonder if we’re unlucky or lucky.”

Bai Tianyu asked in confusion, “What do you mean?”

Huo Sheng said, “In a certain ecosystem, the diversity of creatures can roughly reflect the danger of this place.”

“You just said that the creatures nearby are quite scarce. I assume this place might be the territory of a certain creature, most likely the Six-legged Wolf Bears. The power of this group seems to be overwhelmingly dominant in this area. Now, we have become intruders.”

“In other words, we, the people of Nanxiang, have already formed a direct competitive relationship with the nearby Six-legged Wolf Bear population.”

Fighting for territory and resources.

To put it bluntly, it was for survival.

This was an irreconcilable fundamental conflict!

Therefore, the unlucky thing was that as soon as all the people from Nanxiang entered the Black Mist Zone, they had an enemy of an unknown scale.

Fortunately, the Six-legged Wolf Bear was the least dangerous exotic beast in the Black Mist Zone. In other words, this enemy was not strong.

As they chatted, the two of them suddenly felt the ground trembling beneath their feet.

Before the two of them could react, the Awakened on guard on the city wall shouted in fear!

His superpower was called “Sonic Waves”. In other words, his voice was much louder than ordinary people.

At this moment when he shouted, his voice resonated like thunder, alarming everything in the area!

“Colonel Bai! Professor Huo! Six-legged Wolf Bear! It’s the Six-legged Wolf Bear!!”

He looked like he had not seen much of the world, appearing green and inexperienced…

However, Bai Tianyu knew that ordinary Six-legged Wolf Bears could not scare that person to this extent. The ancient city ruins had suffered many attacks during this period of time, and the main force was the Six-legged Wolf Bears.

They were used to this kind of danger.

Looking at the trembling ground beneath his feet, Bai Tianyu also knew that the incoming wave of the Six-legged Wolf Bears that attacked this time would be astonishing in scale!

He jumped onto the city wall with Huo Sheng in tow.

Bai Tianyu looked into the distance.

In the next second, cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

Bai Tianyu did not care about the Level 4 and Level 5 Six-legged Wolf Bears.

The level suppression was one thing. On the other hand, Bai Tianyu’s Blood Boiling superpower could directly increase Bai Tianyu’s physical strength to a Level 7 grade.

Being one level higher meant crushing the opponent directly!

Being two levels higher, numbers did not matter!

So, even if a large number of exotic beasts attacked, if there were only Level 4 or Level 5 Six-legged Wolf Bears among them, it was not a big deal for Bai Tianyu.

At most, he could kill them all with some effort, just like how Brother Lu dealt with the zombie wave.

However, this time, a big guy appeared among the wild creatures…

In the distance, the beast wave came to a halt about ten kilometers away from the ancient city.

The Wolf Bear ancestor’s small mountain-like body stood at the front of the Beast Dynasty. His ferocious aura spread wantonly, causing Bai Tianyu’s heart to sink.

“Level 7 exotic beast…”

“No, it’s even stronger than Level 7, so it’s… Level 8!!”

Bai Tianyu’s judgment was accurate.

The Wolf Bear ancestor was already Level 7 when it reached adulthood. Some subsequent opportunities allowed it to climb another level. A long time ago, this Wolf Bear ancestor already had the strength of Level 8.

As for Level 8 exotic beasts… although they were nothing in the entire Black Mist Zone, they could still occupy a mountain in a godforsaken place like Bear Mountain and lead their clan to dominate the world.

With his stronger eyesight, the Wolf Bear ancestor clearly saw Bai Tianyu’s reaction.

Therefore, it came to a conclusion…

Those Tribulation Transceivers were afraid.

It was stronger than them!

“Howl!”

A furious roar shook the heavens and the earth.

It conveyed a message that made the beast horde exultant.

“Dinner is served!”
