Chapter 30 (1/2)
Although his allies were doing well, Xu Hang was not entirely happy.
After all, many other people had died in the Beast Tide.
They were strangers to him, but they were still fellow countrymen. The sight of them dying one by one was quite miserable.
Xu Hang became even more determined. He wanted to learn everything that he could.
Before this, Xu Hang only cared about getting resources.
Now, he wanted to explore the depths of the Beast Tide and find more information about this world.
The best way was to directly fire the magic cannon at the heart of the Beast Tide.
With his two allies, they could easily achieve it.
Xu Hang sent two farmers to Yang Mingyue and Zhao Qing Er in exchange for Hill and Shadow’s return. At the same time, he slowly packed his luggage.
Once he was done packing, he opened the map and analyzed the situation while waiting for his two trusty farmers to return.
Overall, the farmers were at an almost invincible level. Replacing Hill and Shadow would not decrease or affect Yang Mingyue and Zhao Qing Er’s combat strength.
Xu Hang was unsure if he would succeed or fail at his mission this time. That was why he had to bring along his strongest men.
According to the map, Xu Hang’s territory was located in the middle of the north.
Zhao Qing Er and Yang Mingyue were both in the southwest direction from his place.
Xu Hang had explored the north before, but he stopped when he reached the northern mountains. He did not go in any deeper.
In other words, there were no other Lords near him.
It was only him and his two allies.
According to what he had seen in the world chat channel, some Lords’ castles were so close to each other that they could see one another without having to travel.
However, these cases mostly happened in the south. There were more people located there.
With that in mind, the spawning point of the Beast Tide might be located somewhere in the north.
Moreover, most of the magical beasts were in the form of furry animals such as wolves and lions. They developed fur to resist the cold of winter, meaning that they probably came from the northern region.
Despite that, there was one inconsistency.
The magical beasts that attacked Zhao Qing Er and Yang Mingyue’s territory came from the south.
‘Same magical beasts but they came from opposite directions.
‘Could it be that they had surrounded the area?
‘That’s impossible!’
Although he could not explain it, Xu Hang was still confident that the beasts came from the north.
Before Xu Hang could proceed any further, he needed more information.
Lan Jiu was resting on top of a towering tree.
Xu Hang spotted her and said, “Lan Jiu, can you come?”
The Elven Queen slowly flew down.
“Xu Hang, is there something wrong?”
“I want to know how you were attacked.”
“The elves had lived for a long time in this world, but we had not been attacked before.”
“As usual, we were just minding our own business in the cave. All of a sudden, magical beasts ran in.”
Xu Hang pondered for a moment.
“Did you use the same trick you used on me against them?”
“Of course. We even fired the magic cannon. However, these magical beasts do not seem to possess any rationality. They were not afraid of pain. Their legs were broken and their bodies were injured, but they continued to attack.”
