Chapter 372: Charge Toward the Jungle
"Sister Qin, should we talk about this?" Su Yan glanced at the Thunder Strike Gun in her hand and then asked Qin Yue.
She was worried that those challengers might target the four of them, so she took out the Thunder Strike Gun.
To deal with these people, there’s no need to use level 3, level 2 should be enough to kill them.
"Forget about it, considering we’re all eliminators. Besides, it doesn’t really affect us," Qin Yue said, as long as it didn’t affect them, she didn’t care how others wanted to endanger themselves.
"After we leave, will they conspire something against us?" Liu Li expressed her concern, feeling a chill down her back as they left.
"They can’t stir up a storm, there’s only about thirty of them." Qin Yue thought these people couldn’t even see the situation clearly and couldn’t make any waves.
Being fearless of death and being forced by necessity are entirely different situations.
The number and strength of challengers were far beyond the eliminators. At this time, thinking about acting independently is just courting death, isn’t it?
Telekinesis?
Currently, telekinesis can only move objects from a distance and has no real damaging power.
They think too highly of telekinesis and of themselves.
They’re about to enter a more dangerous area, yet they don’t think of uniting, how foolish is that?
"Yes, with so few people, they can’t make any waves, I don’t know what they’re thinking," Cheng Jie agreed with Qin Yue, believing that the most important thing now is to cling to the eliminators’ support and wait until the settlement is established before considering other matters.
The four of them quickly returned to their team.
Others didn’t ask anything, as if nothing had happened.
The ones practicing continued their practice, and those who were sleeping went back to sleep.
Time flew by, and it was soon past seven the next day.
Xu Yi ended his practice, and after a night he gradually mastered the way of cultivating Supreme Profound.
Since he wasn’t very skilled yet, he couldn’t open his Spiritual Vision while practicing Supreme Profound.
However, Xu Yi knew that once he became proficient, he could continue to open his Spiritual Vision during practice.
He found that after practicing overnight, his spiritual power increased significantly.
"System, punch in."
Without opening his eyes, Xu Yi checked in.
It was the 125th day of checking in today, and another weekly gift pack would be available tomorrow.
After completing the check-in, Xu Yi opened his eyes and walked out of the tent.
Outside, there were no more tents in sight, everyone was packing up.
With Lu Ke’s help, Xu Yi also packed up his tent.
At eight in the morning, they set out on time.
Seven hours’ journey lay between here and the edge of the Jungle Area, but everyone knew it was unlikely they’d reach the jungle edge in seven hours.
After all, they were bound to encounter quite a few Fierce Beast attacks along the way.
They hadn’t walked for 20 minutes when they encountered a group of Fierce Beasts.
This group wasn’t large, only a dozen or so.
Seeing the formidable group of 500 approach, they decisively fled.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
As it turns out, Fierce Beasts can run away too.
This was definitely a good sign, as they had never encountered a situation before where Fierce Beasts would flee.
Another ten minutes passed, and they encountered another group of Fierce Beasts.
This group was a bit larger, with forty to fifty, so they decisively charged at the human troops.
They were met with energy beams from Electric Shock Guns.
In less than five minutes, these Fierce Beasts were dealt with.
After all, having around 500 people makes it manageable to deal with that number of Fierce Beasts.
Without even cleaning up the battlefield, they continued moving forward.
Twenty more minutes passed, and they encountered another group of Fierce Beasts.
This time, the number increased to seventy or more.
Sixteen Thunder Strike Guns never stopped firing.
Yet even so, they couldn’t take down all the Fierce Beasts in a short time.
Soon, some Fierce Beasts broke into the crowd.
Xu Yi and Qin Fan were at the forefront.
Restrict!
Xu Yi used his skill and stabbed his short rifle into the eye of a Fierce Beast, ending its life.
Qin Fan and Qin Yue cast a small net over a Fierce Beast, then Lu Yao and Wang Jin simultaneously struck, aiming their military daggers at the Fierce Beast’s eyes.
The scales could not be pierced, so they had to attack the eyes.
Luckily, there were still eyes to target; otherwise, who knows how many would be injured this round.
Still, three people sustained some injuries.
This was only at the start of the second hour, who knew what attacks lay ahead?
But, could they stop?
No, if they stopped now, they could forget about entering the Jungle Area.
About 90% of the teams gathered here.
With so many people unable to enter the jungle, individual small teams had even less chance.
"Move forward, speed up, let’s push through. Maybe, with many Fierce Beasts outside, there won’t be as many inside the jungle. Fewer in numbers, they can’t hinder us."
"If we don’t enter the Jungle Area now, will we have another chance?"
"Therefore, no matter what situation we encounter, we must charge forward. Only in the Jungle Area can we find water to survive. In the desert, we can only hold out until we have to withdraw."
"Charge, unite, and rush forward!"
Some people shouted, then accelerated forward.
Everyone knew they had to seize the chance to push into the Jungle Area; waiting for a second chance would be too difficult.
Half an hour later, they faced another group of Fierce Beasts, seventy to eighty in number.
This time, they were better prepared than the last. With an average of six or seven people handling one Fierce Beast.
Those with Thunder Strike Guns, organized by Qin Fan, provided support from one side without striking immediately.
Given their restriction to twenty shots a day, each person had already used five or six, so conserving them for a critical moment was necessary.
The Thunder Strike Gun was currently their only reliable support.
After nearly six hours of rushing, they finally saw the edge of the jungle.
The jungle and desert were entirely two different worlds.
One side was grayish-black, the other green, distinctly separate.
The trees there reached heights of over forty or fifty meters, looking entirely different from those in their own world.
Three to four kilometers was the distance between them and the jungle edge.
There were over fifty injured, luckily they could still move and none were life-threatening.
However, the next three to four kilometers would be extremely difficult, they thought.
Because there were many Fierce Beasts, and their numbers kept increasing.
Nevertheless, they had no intention to retreat.
The more they fought, the more experience they gained.
