258 Shelter Island (2/2)
Feeling the hostility from Qin Feng, one of the giant tortoises charged straight for Qin Feng.
Its speed was considered unusually fast for a tortoise.
Such a giant beast did not need any skills. They could simply destroy their target through brute force alone.
Qin Feng remained composed.
'Just about time to test my new technique.'
Qin Feng triggered his consciousness.
”Hell Magma!”
The extreme heat of the magma instantly melted the earth's crust. The ground below the flowing magma crumbled instantaneously.
The giant Islet Tortoise fell into the magma pit as well. Unlike the chilling seawater, scorching magma sipped into the internal part of the shell.
”Roar!”
The tortoise screeched. It had never experienced such an extreme temperature. The Islet Tortoise was disintegrated within seconds.
Qin Feng wasted no time.
”Fiery Rampage!”
The Verdant Emperor Saber in his hand slid out in a parabolic curve.
”Burning Sword Glare!”
An elongated sword radiance promptly cut off the screeching tortoise's head.
Plop!
The giant head flew off and dropped on the magma and was burned clean the next instant.
Qin Feng switched to another target once he had taken care of the first.
The Islet Tortoise's giant body hindered them from fighting as a coordinated group.
Qin Feng repeated the same trick and quickly exterminated the rest of the Islet Tortoises.
The sandy beach had almost melted into a land of magma. On top of this stood the mighty sovereign—Qin Feng.
Soldiers on the fort were dumbfounded. Yang Ping, too, inhaled deeply.
Qin Feng was too powerful! He managed to kill beasts as strong as the Islet Tortoise with such ease. Yang Ping figured that there was a lapse in his plan.
'I was a little doubtful when they said that he could single-handedly handle the Drakocroc King. Apparently, that's true. At this rate, it would be unrealistic to try killing him this way.'
Yang Ping's mind began to process this information rapidly. They needed a plan B now.
Qin Feng never left the beach.
'The energy stored in the Islet Tortoises is rather rich!'
Though it was only a normal beast, Qin Feng managed to absorb a large pool of energy after killing the tortoises. His physical strength did not enhance by much but he could feel the blood racing faster in the vessel. Despite that, his heart pumped slower but more vigorously. Each pump provided more energy to the whole body.
Tortoises were indeed the key to longevity.
A lot of people were willing to pay a handsome price for meat from a tortoise beast. It was rumored that the meat could increase one's life span. The energy core of the tortoise beast fetched an even higher price.
Qin Feng started to get hopeful.
However, it was unrealistic for an Islet Tortoise beast general or king to appear here. Islet Tortoises of those levels were too massive.
The shallow water of the shelter island could indeed deter a lot of powerful beasts.
After the Islet Tortoises had landed, more beasts emerged from the sea current. Qin Feng wiped everything clean regardless of whether they were strong or weak.
Yang Ping was getting even sulkier as he witnessed Qin Feng's overpowering strength.
Suddenly, notifications rang through Yang Ping's communicator. He glanced at it and his facial expression changed abruptly. He then hurriedly concealed his unease.
Yang Ping turned his head sideways and glanced at Bai Li. He noticed that Bai Li seemed bored and paid little attention to Qin Feng's battle. He quickly excused himself, ”Miss Bai, I still have things to attend to so I am leaving now. It seems Mayor Qin can handle the sea beast tide just fine by himself. Please send my regards to him later. I will take my leave now.”
Bai Li glanced quietly at Yang Ping, as if her dark eyes had seen right through his conspiracy.
