"This earthquake must be above level-10, right?"
He Chuan had never seen such an exaggerated natural disaster. He could only try his best to stabilize his body and escape from the danger zone.
Fortunately, there were no volcanoes nearby. Otherwise, an earthquake of this magnitude would definitely trigger an even more terrifying volcanic eruption. At that time, there would be nowhere to run even if he wanted to.
The Azure Dragon Legion's Encampment was also in a state of panic.
Everyone was at a loss.
Fortunately, they were in an open area, and the cracks did not spread to this side, so they escaped the disaster.
The earthquake came suddenly and left quickly.
In less than ten seconds, the world regained its stability.
However, He Chuan knew that there would be aftershocks, so he had to be careful at all times.
The avalanche in the distance was still ongoing. Layers of snow had collapsed in various parts of the mountain range and were now connected into a single row.
He Chuan frowned slightly and carried out his deduction habitually.
It had been snowing heavily for a long time recently, and the mountain's peak was covered in thick snow. The place near the foot of the mountain would definitely become a mess.
According to his deduction,
Such a natural disaster's appearance would significantly impact the strange beasts living there.
Who knows, it might cause the beasts to escape together. At that time, it would definitely be a life-and-death test for Glory City, which was blocking the way!
At that time, Lin Ya's idea of "using resources obtained in a war to support the war" could no longer be implemented.
The only way was to decide the outcome with a single battle!
Without the help of the magic cannons.
Even though Glory City's defensive capabilities had greatly increased, and there was a troop of several thousand armament soldiers.
However, to the massive beast tide, it was still insignificant.
The appearance of these two vicious natural disasters made He Chuan lose the idea of going to Freedom City.
It wasn't easy for Glory City to develop to its current state. If he lost it just like that, he would definitely receive a very substantial rebate.
However, such a return would absolutely not allow him to obtain an S rank score.
When the time came, he would not even have the ability to fight against the Crown Prince, who controlled the resources of the world in the imperial city.
He Chuan immediately made a decision and rushed back to glory city to take charge of the overall situation.
It was just as he had expected.
The city was now in a mess. There were broken walls everywhere. The houses that had been dilapidated for a long time had now collapsed and turned into ruins.
Many people were injured, and their combat power was significantly reduced.
Many of the supplies piled up in the warehouse had been destroyed as a result.
Not only that.
Many strange beasts living in the mountains and forests had been disturbed by the earthquake and were running around.
From time to time, they would attack the damaged city walls.
Some of them could climb or jump and even rushed into the city, wantonly slaughtering the civilians who hadn't taken the Hanshi Powder yet.
The martial cultivators were running for their lives, they hadn't cultivated for long, so it was still difficult for them to kill the strange beasts.
As a result, the number of casualties in the city continued to increase, and wails could be heard everywhere.
Especially that six-meter-tall tiger-type strange beast. Its fur was so thick that even a few spirit cultivators who had awakened innate abilities couldn't penetrate it, let alone those martial cultivators. The latter were only armed with black-scaled spirit weapons.
The strange beast tore the battle line apart in just a short moment.
"Damn it! Is there no one who can teach this beast a lesson? !"
"It would be great if the City Lord was here. He definitely has a way!"
"Damn it, quickly stop it! This beast is heading towards where the children are staying!"
"F*ck, I'm going all out! Charge!"
More than ten martial cultivators gritted their teeth and charged forward. In the end, they were swatted apart by the strange beast with a single slap.
One of them was the most miserable. He was directly pressed under the enormous soles of its feet. It was unknown how many bones had been shattered.
Right at this moment, a flash of fire appeared.
He Chuan descended from the sky. His palm was filled with incomparably violent power, directly slamming into the head of the strange beast.
Immediately, the tiger-type strange beast whimpered, and its body went limp as it fell to the ground.
The scorching energy had already crushed its brain. It was no longer possible for it to stand up and hurt others.
He Chuan swept his gaze across the city. There were still quite a few small-sized strange beasts in the city, so he immediately gave the order.
"All spirit cultivators, lead a team of martial cultivators to seal the city gate and block the gap! The rest of you, follow me to kill those strange beasts that enter the city!"
"Yes!"
Everyone's shouts shook the sky.
Clearly, they had been inspired by the scene of He Chuan killing the enemy with that move.
However, motivation was motivation, and ability was ability.
These martial cultivators were all awakened ones. Without innate abilities, even small strange beasts were hard to deal with.
As a result, all the strange beasts in the city were killed by He Chuan himself.
The others could only play a delaying role.
The situation outside the city was a little more serious.
Even though there were a large number of awakened ones to deal with the onslaught, because they didn't have the ability to kill, the strange beasts accumulated more and more.
The strength of these awakened ones was weaker than He Chuan had imagined.
He didn't expect they couldn't even deal with a beast tide of this level. The gap between them wasn't just a little bit.
They hadn't reached the scale of the beast tide yet, but it was already so difficult to deal with. Wouldn't they be wiped out instantly if they encountered a real Beast Horde?
That wasn't possible.
Right now was only the threat brought by the beginning of the disaster.
Perhaps they would face a new round of challenges in another day or two.
He Chuan stepped on the city wall and looked down at the group of strange beasts that were as crazy as zombies. His heart was a little heavy.
He activated his innate ability, fire control.
He immediately turned the vast spiritual energy stored in his body into a blazing rain of fire sprinkling down along the city wall.
They died in the pain of being burned by the fire.
Glory City was in a sea of fire in just a few minutes.
The fire spread quickly and scared away the strange beasts that wanted to attack Glory City.
Glory City also had time to breathe.
However, this safety must be very short-lived.
They had to do as much as possible during this time.
He Chuan returned to the City Lord's Manor.
Xu Ke and Lin Cheng came one after another to report the loss of various supplies and personnel in the city.
The casualties caused by the beast onslaught were not considered large.
It was just that the militia captain who was in charge of setting up the traps had fallen into the crater due to the earthquake early on. Sharp spikes had pierced his chest and lungs.
The current medical practices were not enough to treat such penetrating injuries.
Even though he had already become a martial cultivator, he still couldn't hold on until He Chuan's return. He became the first person in Glory City's leadership to be sacrificed.
Apart from that, there was good news.
When the awakened were cutting up the flesh of strange beasts, they accidentally discovered a kind of crystal that existed in their bodies.
The size varied.
The common point was that these crystals contained extremely powerful energy.
Someone tried it and unexpectedly found that an awakened one could actually absorb this thing!
Moreover, the energy conversion rate and cultivation efficiency were extremely high!
It was much faster than their usual speed of using the guiding technique to absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world!
