Chapter 175: Helpless

Its alluring appearance would make any hot-blooded person feel their blood rush, leading their thoughts toward certain things.

But Shao Weiguo did not have such thoughts right now; in his eyes, the Level Six Ice Fiend Beast was like a venomous snake. The dazzling light from moments ago was his Form Skill. He took pride in this Form Skill, which was grand and imposing, but it was all thunder and no rain. It struck the Ice Fiend Beast and only sent it flying dozens of meters away, causing the beast to roar in pain.

Shao Weiguo, who could only use his Form Skill twice, looked somewhat weary, but he gritted his teeth and persisted in commanding from the air.

“Block it, you bastards! Aim carefully before you strike.”

Dozens of Super Warriors circled the Level Six Ice Fiend in the sky, while below, nearly a hundred Super Warriors were all gritting their teeth, using every ounce of their strength to drain their bodies of power and smash their strongest attacks onto this Ice Fiend Beast.

Gorgeous and brilliant Form Skills almost surrounded the Ice Fiend Beast, striking its body and causing it to howl in pain from time to time. Its two Bone Swords were waving as it constantly moved toward the city. If one observed carefully, one could see that it had a pair of large wings, yet it was walking on the ground.

Shao Weiguo’s Form Skill from earlier had some effect; at least the blue-patterned wings of the Ice Fiend Beast had some gaps blasted into them by Shao Weiguo.

The injured wings were secreting some blue liquid, carrying a cold aura. Dripping onto the ground from time to time, it actually froze an area the size of a fist upon spreading.

When Zhou Liming arrived, two people happened to appear beside Shao Weiguo. One was about the same age as Shao Weiguo, but his face had no expression, and his eyes were cold and emotionless. The other was unexpectedly an old man around sixty years old, with a face like a spring breeze, which was a stark contrast to the middle-aged man beside him.

Without guessing, one could guess their identities.

The expressionless middle-aged man was the city’s law enforcement officer. But what Zhou Liming did not expect was that this sixty-year-old man was actually the city’s supreme ruler.

The arrival of the two made Shao Weiguo breathe a sigh of relief. He was seeing the Fierce Beast in front of him for the first time. At first, Shao Weiguo thought it was a Super Warrior’s transformation, but after the Bone Sword unceremoniously dismembered several subordinates, Shao Weiguo realized that this was an out-and-out Fierce Beast, and the aura it emitted was terrifying.

In Shao Weiguo’s eyes, no matter how powerful a Fierce Beast was, it could not withstand a single hit from his Form Skill.

But the Level Six Ice Fiend Beast completely overturned this belief. When he saw the Ice Fiend Beast, which had been knocked dozens of meters away, stand up again and take big steps forward, he finally began to panic.

Over a hundred Super Warriors, although most were Third and Fourth Stage Super Warriors, were still a considerable force. Yet used on a single Fierce Beast, they could only cause it pain. The frenzied energy explosions and powerful tearing force merely rippled across the Ice Fiend Beast’s blue skin, occasionally breaking the skin and oozing a little blue blood that hissed with cold air.

They couldn’t even break the beast’s skin layer, so it could be said that Third and Fourth Stage Super Warriors had completely lost their significance against it.

Form Skills consumed a great deal of physical strength; anyone who could use them three or four times had incredibly strong endurance. But the advance of the Ice Fiend Beast could only be stopped by these Form Skills. The sharp Bone Swords were also terrifying existences; even steel could be easily cut by them, and a Super Warrior’s powerful body would be split in two upon contact.

Seeing the people below exhausted and pale-faced, they were likely clenching their teeth and holding on.

Fortunately, the Ice Fiend Beast did not use its Form Skill. It was like a stubborn bull, only knowing how to charge forward. The energy that rained down on it would always result in its screeching after the explosions. The Ice Fiend Beast’s cry was somewhat like a woman’s scream, very piercing, and hearing it always gave one a creepy feeling.

“Another big freak!”

The appearance of the Level Six Ice Fiend Beast reminded Shao Weiguo of the Pig Officer from a few days ago. That guy was also invulnerable to swords and guns, then ran to the city, caused a huge mess, and left. If it weren’t for the fact that the other guy was grinning and talkative, Shao Weiguo would have wondered if this Ice Fiend Beast was with him.

The arrival of Zhang Chunyang and Chen Yunian made Shao Weiguo’s suspended heart feel a little better.

Chen Yunian was alright, but Shao Weiguo admitted he was not on the same wavelength as Zhang Chunyang, who never showed any expression on his face all day. Just because his wife and children died, did he have to look like this? Who hasn’t lost their family? But Shao Weiguo wouldn’t say that. Instead, he forced a bitter smile and pointed helplessly at the Ice Fiend Beast striding forward below as if unaffected, saying: “I’m afraid we’re in trouble this time.”

The entire city’s strength had been deployed, yet under this gang attack, they couldn’t stop the Ice Fiend Beast; this was not just a simple trouble.

Right now, no one was investigating exactly what kind of Fierce Beast this was or where it came from.

A serious expression appeared on Chen Yunian’s lean face. Scales like snake skin appeared on his dark skin, quickly covering his whole body. The wings on his back were pale green. No one would have guessed that the amiable Chen Yunian’s Fierce Beast Gene would be that of the Flying Snake, a Level Five Fierce Beast.

Among the three’s Form Skills, Chen Yunian’s was the most vicious, carrying toxicity.

The instant he entered the Fierce Beast Form, Chen Yunian glowed green. Wisps of green smoke emerged from the gaps between his scales and then condensed into a mass.

Zhang Chunyang’s voice was somewhat cold: “Prepare yourselves. If we can’t handle it either, let’s execute the release strategy.” He didn’t say much more. His body grew larger, bursting his clothes. Bumps appeared on his skin, looking somewhat disgusting, and then feathers emerged from these bumps. In a moment, he transformed into a gray bird-man form. With a flap of his wings, he was already flying through the sky.

The Flying Snake Gene of Chen Yunian was recorded in the X Squadron’s Fierce Beast data. It was a very ferocious type of Fierce Beast with a strong desire to attack. Its Form Skills were Venom Arrows and Poison Mist. Although the scales were not thick, their defensive power was also amazing. Tank armor-piercing shells could injure it with terrible impact but could not break its scales.

But Zhou Liming could not figure out what kind of Fierce Beast Zhang Chunyang’s form was.

Chen Yunian’s Venom Arrows were fired very quickly. While powerful, he could attack up to five times. One could only see his mouth, which had somewhat transformed into a snake’s maw, suddenly open. With a curl of his tongue, a green Venom Arrow sprayed out, flashing and vanishing in an instant.

With the abilities of the Level Six Ice Fiend Beast, dodging this Venom Arrow was not difficult, but the Form Skills were attacking from all sides, and this Venom Arrow was mixed in among them. Caught off guard, the Ice Fiend Beast felt a scorching pain in its chest and could not help but let out another piercing scream.

The spot hit by the Venom Arrow was actually in its cleavage. The strong corrosiveness of the venom scorched the Ice Fiend Beast’s blue skin. Amidst “tss tss” sounds, mist constantly rose. It was unknown whether it was the corrosive gas of the venom or the Ice Fiend Beast’s own cold air.

Zhou Liming watched the two large breasts jiggling as the Ice Fiend Beast was in pain and couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. He knew clearly that this was just a Fierce Beast with a somewhat human shape, but he couldn’t be blamed. Isn’t the greatest advantage of humanity their vivid imagination? Like right now, this guy’s mind had already wandered off to certain human-beast thoughts…

The Ice Fiend Beast, which had been striding forward, suddenly stopped, showing a pained expression.

Chen Yunian’s Venom Arrow had indeed caused damage to the Ice Fiend Beast. The ability of a Level Five Fierce Beast was slightly inferior to that of a Level Six Fierce Beast, but not to the point where a Level Six Fierce Beast could ignore it.

But the Ice Fiend Beast only paused for a moment, then let out a roar. Its legs rubbed against the ground, and it shot out like lightning.

Everyone who saw this was shocked. The Ice Fiend Beast had been moving slowly just now, so everyone assumed that its speed was as slow as a snail. Who would have thought that the speed the Ice Fiend Beast displayed suddenly was so amazing? The first thought of the Super Warriors surrounding the Ice Fiend Beast was to run.

“Ah…” The scream was tragic.

Among the nearly a hundred Super Warriors, the most numerous were Third Stage Warriors. They were originally not far from the Ice Fiend Beast and became its first targets. With the sharpness of the Bone Sword, a Third Stage Super Warrior was directly cut in half. Fresh blood spilled in the air, and the two halves of the body fell straight to the ground.

The gap between the Third Stage and the Sixth Stage was still too big; it was not a contest on the same level at all.

The Ice Fiend Beast charged into the group of Super Warriors, and the Bone Sword in its hand danced wildly. Anyone who touched it was lightly grazed with broken skin, but the severe cases didn’t need to be described as unlucky; they were directly swept into two pieces on the spot. For a moment, severed limbs flew everywhere, and fresh blood spilled onto the ground. In just a few breaths, six or seven Super Warriors had already fallen.

Shao Weiguo turned pale with fright and shouted: “Chen Yunian, did you fucking shoot a poison arrow or a catalyst?” He was truly anxious. In the blink of an eye, nearly ten Super Warriors had died. How could the already small number of Super Warriors withstand such a loss?

Chen Yunian couldn’t care less about Shao Weiguo’s shouting. He showed a helpless expression and cursed: “It’s really wicked. The venom clearly entered its body, but why didn’t it have any effect at all?” He thought of something, and his face became ugly: “Its blood…”

Just by seeing the blue blood dripping from the Ice Fiend Beast’s wound, it turned into ice the moment it was exposed to the air. Naturally, the Venom Arrow Chen Yunian fired had been frozen by the Ice Fiend Beast’s blood. It couldn’t exert any effect at all. Instead, the pain had enraged the Ice Fiend Beast, changing its previous behavior.

In the past, when dealing with Fierce Beasts that could not be countered, a strategy was often executed, which was to let it run free.
