Chapter 418 - Winter Is Coming (2/2)
Meanwhile, the battle had dealt a heavy blow to the western world. It would take them a long time to recuperate. During that time, the Chinese Martial arts community could seize the power vacuum and exert its influence.
After today’s event, no one in the Underground World would dare to overlook China under the protection of Chen Beixuan.
The thought elated Yang Qinhu.
“They are powerful warriors, but they are far from the real force in the Western world. Who knows if those Immortal State Warriors were still hanging around in Europe.” Chen Fan said lightly. The mentioning of the Immortal State Warriors didn’t seem to perturb his mood at all.
Even if there were some Immortal State warriors still alive, he would not be afraid of them with the power he possessed now.
Plus, once he consumed the Fruit of Embryonic Essence and Heavenly Spring of Life, his level of attainment would increase by leaps and bounds. He would enter the peak of Ethereal Enlightenment if not Divine Sea. Once he had reached Divine Sea, fighting against an Immortal State warrior would be like fighting a child for him.
Excitement and glee were written all over Yang Qinhu’s face. Even as he was going to ask Chen Fan more questions, he noticed that Chen Fan’s face suddenly darkened.
“What is it?”
Yang Qinhu asked under his breath, and suddenly, he heard a wave of commotion drift into the valley from outside.
“We have other company? Who could make it this far into this frozen waste?” Yang Qinhu’s mind raced. Then he watched as Chen Fan rose to his feet with a solemn face. Chen Fan didn’t look so serious even when Adam entered the valley. Yang Qinhu’s heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
“What kind of energy would make Senior Master Chen feel threatened? Could it be the Russian Army?”
Even as Yang Qinhu racked his brain to find out an answer, he saw a group of people had retreated back into the valley.
They were the western Dark Overlords.
However, many of them were injured with deep claw marks on their shoulders and chests. Those claw marks come in a set of four and looked b.e.s.t.i.a.l in nature. Yang Qinhu couldn’t figure out what kind of beat could have harmed so many powerful Overlords.
“The wind is howling.”
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and heaved a sigh.
Chen Fan’s words suddenly reminded Yang Qinhu what w.a.n.g Baoguo had told them.
“The monster came with a blizzard. The snow was so heavy that we couldn’t make out their faces. But what we know is that they are very fast and had a pair of b.l.o.o.d.y eyes, and they moved like wolves.”
“Could… could it be those monsters?”
Yang Qinhu stammered, eyes br.i.m.m.i.n.g with disbelief.
Although these Dark Overlords were no match against Chen Fan, they were all forces to be reckoned with in their own rights. Some of them were even listed on the Dark Roll. They could have defeated an entire Russian brigade, much less a few beasts. White-Hair Reaper alone should be able to deal with wild animals.
“These are not ordinary wild beasts. You will see… Interesting. I had never thought that they could have survived on earth.” Chen Fan spoke under his breath. His words were blown away by the wind and so Yang Qinhu couldn’t hear what he had said.
Meanwhile, the group of Overlords had already retreated back to Chen Fan. They looked shaken to the core.
“What are those monsters? They are extremely powerful and fast. I landed a blow on one of them, but the impact knocked me back. They clawed through my Four Righteousness protection aura right away and injured my shoulder.”
A Brazilian Mixed Martial Arts Master exclaimed in panic.
“I am not sure but even my Demon Hunting Rifle wouldn’t harm them. My rifle should be deadly enough to end the life of an Elephant with one shot. Their level of attainment in physique refinement were all as high as Damon, the war elephant.” White-Hair Reaper put in calmly. He held two guns in his hands, one white and one black.
While Adam was helping him to steady himself, The Fool suddenly remembered something. His face changed color as he looked at Adam.
“It might be THEM. They should have been dead after the Russians dropped the N-bomb on them. Why are they still alive?” Adam asked in surprise.
Nuclear weapons are the most powerful weapons in the world.
The temperature could rise up to a thousand degrees at the center of the nuclear blast that would evaporate any form of life. Even an Immortal State warrior could not have survived such a blast. Adam found it difficult to believe that anything could have lived after being hit directly with a nuclear bomb.
“Hehe… maybe they are of a different clan. Siberia is huge, there could be more villages just like the one that USSR had discovered.” The Fool coughed violently and put in.
Meanwhile, the blizzard had already approached the entrance of the valley.
Inside the chilling mix of ice and snow, a few dark humanoid shadows appeared. They lurked inside behind the storm, using it as a cover. However, people could still see their shape silhouetted against the whiteness. There stood two meters tall and their eyes burned like coals
“one, two, three.”
“…sixteen, seventeen, eighteen…”
“…Seventy-nine, eighty, eighty-one…”
Someone started counting. As the number tallied up, the person’s voice sounded more desperate and helpless.
“A hundred and thirty-seven!”
The fighter finally finished counting. He put in with a shaky voice: “How are we going to fight back against a hundred and thirty-seven Damon the War Elephants? We are doomed!”
Even Adam’s face turned pale as if he had just seen a ghost.
