Chapter 264 - 264 The Huge Beast
264 The Huge Beast
Then, in the thick fog, a huge monster covered in dark gray hair appeared before everyone!
The monster’s height was roughly three meters, and its body was covered in grayish-brown hair. The monster’s limbs were strong and powerful, and scarlet light shot out of its eyes. Below its eyes, there was a bloody mouth that was big enough to swallow a basketball!
The monster’s muscles were knotted, and it looked like a violent gorilla. However, the power and threat that it could unleash were more than 10 times stronger than that of an ordinary gorilla.
It was a Rank 6 beast!
The moment the rampaging beast appeared, the pedestrians on the street immediately fell into chaos.
The drivers who were closer to the destroyed city wall stepped on the gas pedal and rushed into the distance without a care. They were afraid that they would be discovered by the huge monster and die on the spot.
With the first person leading the way, the other drivers who were stuck on the road also followed suit and ignored the pedestrians on the street, driving away as fast as they could.
The car’s exterior was hard, but the huge monster had managed to even break the city wall with one punch. The car was just a big matchbox to the beast. If they stayed in the same place, they would only die.
The moment the rampaging beast appeared, there were screams on the entire street.
Countless pedestrians were run over by panicking drivers, and some were knocked to the ground. For a moment, the sound of shouting rang out.
“Rawr!”
When the huge beast saw the humans fleeing in all directions not far away, a brutal look filled its eyes.
The monster instantly jumped more than 10 meters forth as if its body was like a bullet. The violent impact caused the ground to shake constantly, and the surrounding pedestrians lost their footing and fell to the ground. Seeing that the beast was about to eat people, those who were slightly farther away immediately took out their mobile phones and called the City Defense Army.
Those who were closer and uninjured quickly got up and ran away as fast as they could.
The beast became extremely violent. Seeing that it was surrounded by iron boxes, which blocked its vision, it waved its strong arms impatiently. A few cars nearby that had not been able to evacuate in time were sent flying a few meters away by the huge force.
The two-ton car was like a toy in the hands of the beast, and the drivers who were thrown out quickly fell unconscious and bled out.
A few pedestrians not far away were hit by the flying cars, and they instantly stopped breathing.
In the face of a three-meter-tall, muscular beast, ordinary individuals did not have the ability to protect themselves.
Other than running for their lives, there was nothing else they could do!
A woman in her 30s did not manage to run in time, and the beast picked her up. Before everyone’s gaze, she was torn into pieces without hesitation.
A life was gone in the blink of an eye, and everyone’s fear became greater as a result.
Even the photographer, who was standing in front of a high-rise building’s window 100 meters away, was breathing rapidly.
The ferocious beast was violent and bloodthirsty, and no one could stop its advancement.
In less than a minute, several people had lost their lives in the mouth of the beast, and the number of indirect deaths had exceeded 100.
However, as a prefecture-level city, Lushui County had a surveillance system in place. The moment the city wall was destroyed, the City Defense Army discovered it in just three minutes.
Countless military vehicles carrying cultivators rushed in the fierce beast’s direction.
At the same time, hundreds of smaller ferocious beasts crawled in through the hole in the city wall.
Although the strength of those beasts was not as great as that of the violent ape-like monster, they were still extremely threatening to humans.
Seeing the monsters and fierce beasts swarming toward the street not far away, the passersby who did not retreat in time had a touch of despair in their eyes.
The monsters were all ferocious, with their bloody mouths open. Even the weakest had the strength of a four-star cultivator.
Just as the hundreds of ferocious beasts were about to start a massacre, a thunderclap boomed and instantly, half of the sky was illuminated by this huge lightning!
A dazzling white lightning bolt struck, turning a beast that was trying to attack a human into ashes.
Immediately after, the captain of Lushui County’s City Defense Army jumped down from the buildings and rushed toward the beast tide like a Grim Reaper.
The ferocious beasts were grotesquely shaped, and although they were incredibly bloodthirsty, they possessed a high level of intelligence.
When they saw that their companions had been killed by the captain with a single blow, those fierce beasts immediately scattered like birds and beasts. Each and every one of them ran away into the distance.
The City Defense Army’s captain, who was about 40 years old, shot down like a cannonball, and the Thunder Blade in his hand instantly killed two beasts.
He then promptly chased after the other beasts not far away.
From the moment he received the notice, he had using up his spirit energy to travel at the fastest speed.
Finally, he arrived at the scene before the situation reached its worst.
However, things were still beyond his expectations. He had initially thought that it was just a vicious beast causing trouble. It might have hidden somewhere after the rift previously appeared, hence it was not killed by the cultivators in the battle area.
He did not expect there to be hundreds of ferocious beasts at the edge of the dew!
It was obvious that a space-time crack must have appeared not far from Lushui County.
Seeing the ferocious beasts attacking the pedestrians in a frenzy, he felt anxious. He immediately circulated his spiritual power and attacked with his saber.
However, it was impossible for him to stop the killing of hundreds of beasts by himself.
Seeing the powerless pedestrians being pounced on and torn to pieces by the beasts, the captain of the City Defense Army was so angry that his eyes were about to pop out. The spirit energy in his body poured out as if it was free.
Unfortunately, as a prefecture-level city, even Lushui County’s strongest City Defense Army captain was only of an early six-star rank.
Although he could escape unscathed from the encirclement of hundreds of Rank 5 beasts and even take care of most of them, the beasts were not giving him the chance to kill them one by one. They were all running in different directions, making it difficult to even pursue them.
The situation was getting out of control. If the monsters escaped into the city, it would be even more impossible to kill them!
Just as his expression changed drastically, the City Defense Army’s military vehicles carrying the cultivators finally arrived.
When the military vehicles entered the street where the incident happened, the drivers saw the ferocious beasts that were attacking the pedestrians on the street, and their faces were filled with horror.
“F*ck, I’ll kill you animals!”
When the cultivators on the vehicles saw the man-eating beasts on the streets, their faces turned red, the killing intent in their eyes almost materializing!
Without waiting for the captain’s orders, the cultivators immediately jumped out of the window and charged at the fierce beasts.
