Chapter 823: The Cause of Ruination
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After having fought tooth and nail for a month, most of the survivors had obtained the capabilities of apt.i.tude users.
However, their line of thought definitely was not about staying here and awakening into apt.i.tude users.
There were only ultra beasts here, nowhere was safe. As time went on, they would definitely end up dead. Instead, why not bring their new ident.i.ties as apt.i.tude users back into their original world?
Back in the original world, even though they had the s.p.a.ce stabilization device, that kind of protection was only temporary. Now that they had become apt.i.tude users, their lives had changed entirely.
Then, there were some people, even after a month’s time, who were unable to awaken into apt.i.tude users. For them, being alive was no better than being dead, especially the women that were in Zhang Wu’s group. There was n.o.body that desired to return to the ordinary world more than them, not only that, there were a good number of apt.i.tude users that were fanatically looking for a chance at revenge against him.
However, due to Z, Chu Fan wanted to cultivate the Devourer while Zhang Wu felt that this world was his kingdom and wanted to stay, controlling the women under him so that they would not be allowed to leave.
As such, throughout the city there was a series of clashes and skirmishes.
Chu Fan’s group and w.a.n.g Qin’s team quickly gathered. After the Fengli people had finished welding the stairway, they released a blue signal flare to indicate that people could start moving and then let these people on one after another.
The people below could not help but shout in excitement.
“Finally, I can leave this terrible place!”
“Move it, hurry up!”
“Don’t shove!”
The crowd was noisy, n.o.body formed disciplined groups, just fleeing and running away.
Fortunately, there were not as many people this time. People were running out from every part of the city, but there was a sequence to it. Already there were people who had arrived at the top and regained a new leash of life.
Qin Feng was in the airs.h.i.+p control room watching through drone surveillance footage. People moved like ants, rus.h.i.+ng out, wanting to leave the area.
One person came out, ten thousand, twenty thousand…fifty thousand, sixty thousand!
As time pa.s.sed, almost 70% of the people had escaped. The aura of these people could be detected by the consciousness and what he found was surprising.
Fifty thousand to sixty thousand people were gathered together. Even the weakest among them were G5-tier and the higher ones were C-tier in power.
This was a powerful force, not only that, these people had no choice but to follow Qin Feng.
Due to Qin Feng having won his bet against Liu Chong earlier, people were able to escape the place but Liu Chong would not be able to interfere with the Fengli Organization, nor would he be able to partic.i.p.ate in Chongluo City’s affairs.
Now even if Liu Chong regretted it and wanted to return, he could not!
Qin Feng looked at these people as if he was watching the future formation of the Fengli Organization.
He believed that once these people were out, the abandoned Chongluo City would gradually become a ruined Fettered Land!
At this moment, the overlapped s.p.a.ce was surrounded by a silver-grey mist as it violently shook. This shaking was obvious and could be seen with the naked eye. Even if Qin Feng could not hear the sound, the stairway connecting both ends shook and clattered, almost as if it was going to collapse.
Qin Feng’s expression suddenly fell.
“Get out, hurry!”
As soon as he called out, Bai Li and he were already surrounded by silver light and immediately appeared over the overlapped s.p.a.ce, near the stairway.
At this time, those who had already escaped the overlapped s.p.a.ce after reaching the top of the stairs were about to step onto the stairs created by metal ability users.
“Aaaaiee!”
People cried out in terror, some had even fallen.
Qin Feng unleashed his consciousness and managed to grab the few people who fell. They struggled for a bit but realized that they were no longer falling. At the same time, they breathed a sigh of relief and gratefully looked at Qin Feng who was floating in the air.
Boom!
He poured internal force into his hands and pressed them firmly against the side of the stairs.
Suddenly the stairs stabilized, but the previous quake earlier caused the people in the overlapped s.p.a.ce to fall off due to the vibrations. Here, n.o.body could save them. Amidst the screams, they crashed from a high alt.i.tude and became pancakes.
There was chaos in the overlapped s.p.a.ce.
“What’s going on? An earthquake?”
“Is it another beast wave?!”
“Run, what are you waiting for?”
Those people pushed forward with everything they had, trying to escape.
In the overlapped s.p.a.ce, Chu Fan stood up in shock at the same time and looked around.
Nothing in his surroundings had changed. The vibration seemed to have come out of nowhere, but the Devourer under him made a cry of distress.
No beast wave was appearing, and even ultra beasts that hunted humans before fled one after another as if they had encountered a natural enemy, running away faster than anyone else.
At this moment, at the outskirts of the northern zone, several buildings collapsed.
This could be seen more clearly on the outside.
The Fengli drones quickly moved out and captured a terrifying scene. The Northern city wall had been broken through and had collapsed. The earth on the ground looked like it had been turned over, as if there was a creature burrowing in the ground below. From the looks of things, it was a ma.s.sive beast.
This terrifying beast was ma.s.sive in size. It caused destruction wherever it went, causing several buildings to collapse.
It moved full steam ahead, making a beeline for Chu Fan!
“Dodge!”
Chu Fan ordered and the Devourer bounced up into the air as the ground vibrated again!
As the Devourer left, the ma.s.sive beast finally burst out of the ground.
It was a terrifying creature with barbed scales all over its body, but this kind of beast was not uncommon in other dimensions.
It was a Plow Worm!
An absolutely horrifying sight.
It was a kind of ultra beast that could attack from underground, emerging to swallow its victims whole and dragging them away without a trace. These beasts were scary enough when they had reached E-tier but when a beast like that were to reach D-tier, one was enough to threaten an entire city.
Fortunately, this kind of beast did not have the potential to reach any higher than that. It was due to the fact that earthworms in general had very basic genes, being simple creatures and all. Before the Great Rift Age, the earthworm was an insignificant creature, easily killed off with just a mild squeeze.
Now, this earthworm was terrifying. It was about fifty to sixty meters wide and while the Devourer was about six stories tall, it was only roughly twenty meters wide. The Devourer was a large beast, but the Plow Worm was able to gulp it down in one bite.
Absolutely horrifying!
This kind of stature, this kind of power, that could only be applied to A-tier ultra beasts.
Even when the Plow Worm came all this way, its body was recognizable and could be estimated to be three kilometers long.
