Human Offerings
← Ch.0638 | Ch.0640 → |
Qin Feng's plan was obviously to conquer everything by himself, but it was still not the right time.
Therefore, Qin Feng explained, "That Cinder Pine looks suspicious, it can devour anything, and after absorbing dead human bodies, it can even produce Cinderclast Golems. In my opinion, in such a situation, the best way is to take it down as soon as possible to cut short the suffering!"
All three of them were assured by the statement, it seemed like their trip there was not wasted.
He Liming continued, "That's great, I'm afraid that there are a bunch of people that would like to gain some benefits from this!"
Qin Feng understood the hint, but he remained calm in his answer."Yes, I only hope to eliminate the threat as soon as possible, nothing else!"
The three of them carried on with their discussion, and perhaps it was because of the huge temptation, three of them could not wait to take a look outside. Hence, all of them went out without much of a delay.
Qin Feng stood on the second floor of the villa, his expression seemed calm, but his heart was pounding.
"If only the situation is that simple! Perhaps, they are not expecting things to have evolved so drastically!"
It had proven that all three of them were too naïve.
Gathering of people with different interests would often bring clashes, and when profits were associated, killings would take place.
On the first day, He Liming and the others were swift in their killings, although they were not as powerful as Qin Feng, it was still easy for them to take down two hundred C-tier Cinderclast Golems each.
It was a whopping six trillion each day, when recalled in the early days of Quong Po, it was equivalent to all he had. Not only that, he would be left with nothing after the purchase of a B-tier beast emperor material.
Meaning to say, with all that money, all of their rune equipment could be switched and upgraded to the next level.
Such an upgrade would definitely bring shocking results.
Also, it was just the first day.
However, there were another five B-tier aptitude users that had arrived the next day.
Another nine on the third day.
Another thirteen on the fourth day.
Within just four days, the Cinderclast Golem territory was already packed with approximately thirty B-tiers, and it was insanely horrifying.
Even at the Dusan Basin, during the peak season of the spring insectoid wave, there were only ten B-tiers present at a time!
The Cinderclast Golems were definitely valuable and highly sought after, however, there were only about ten thousands of them.
What would be the solution then?
A resolution was swiftly made by the B-tiers, the three-kilometre area would be equally divided, and each of them would have their own designated area to hunt.
Any B-tiers that joined in later would have to fight for their slot.
It was because not every B-tier would take part in the matter of occupying territories.
There were sixteen B-tiers from the Dark Coalition, fourteen from the Human Alliance, and the newcomers would have to fight for the territories of their opponents, and every encounter would then lead to the eruption of a battle.
Under such a complicated situation, most of them were engaged into battle, although they were still being cautious and restricted, there were still two deaths that had occurred.
Within four days, the Cinderclast Golem territory had become unexpectedly smaller compared to the previous three-kilometre radius, only the surrounding area of the Cinder Pine was left, and almost all of the Cinderclast Golems had been killed.
The grounds were devastated with unpleasant looking pot holes that were left from previous magma pools, and the aftermath of the disaster was revolting.
B-tiers that had arrived earlier would have definitely benefited, and those that came later could only hold on to their resentment and the completely scavenged area.
Meanwhile, within a private room of a luxurious hotel in Cinderclast City, sixteen people had gathered together. Fourteen of them were B-tiers, and it was a contradicting moment when two of the remaining C-tiers were sitting on the chairman seats, they were none other than Qin Feng and Bai Li.
"Everyone, now that the Cinderclast Golems have disappeared, only the Cinder Pine is left behind, with its current gigantic size of approximately three hundred meters in height, I often feel that evolvement of the outcome would go out of control, why not we join our forces to take down the Cinder Pine?" Qin Feng suggested.
Some of them agreed, while some of them were obviously unhappy about it.
Although they knew nothing about the reward that might come after the eradication of the Cinder Pine, however, they were certainly dissatisfied about the current situation.
"Governor Qin has his point, it is because of Governor Qin and Miss Bai that we are able to sustain our competition against the Dark Coalition. However, the Cinder Pine is a bizarre and rare encounter!"
"Yes, the Cinder Pine is able to grow by consuming offerings, surprisingly, it can consume anything as well. Perhaps if we move in and offer some rocks, it could even reproduce something else in large amounts!"
As soon as the sentence ended, everyone seemed to be intrigued by the idea, and some were even tempted to try it.
However, Qin Feng let out a mocking laugh and answered, "Is that true? Perhaps all of you might not have noticed the sudden spike in temperature that has taken place recently!"
"Oh? Has it?"
"I don't think so, perhaps the beginning of the spring season is near!"
It was only February, and the North Sea state would usually be at negative ten to twenty degree Celsius, it should be in its winter season with occasional snow. However, the temperature had already risen to about positive ten degree celsius. Aptitude users who were unaffected by temperature change would definitely be unaware of it, but the clothing attire of the commoners have changed.
Bai Li had also taken the opportunity to change into her butterfly emperor long dress, and she looked even more stunning in it. Everyone present were B-tiers that knew her true powers, even those two B-tiers that had died were both killed by Bai Li.
Qin Feng explained, "To be honest, eradicating the Cinder Pine would be for a good cause, and I believe all of you are familiar with my girlfriend's capabilities and her excellent spatial ability. Even without it, we could still trail back to the previous traces of the rift to activate the spatial passage, bear in mind that it would be equivalent to exploring another unknown region, if that unknown region is also filled with such creatures..."
By that time, they could kill as many as they wished.
Hence, the B-tier aptitude users were a little convinced by the idea.
It was at that moment; Qin Feng was alerted by the sudden beeping of his communicator.
"Qin Feng, something bad has happened!" All of a sudden, Zhou Hao shouted.
Qin Feng was stunned, and before he could ask further, Zhou Hao had already poured out everything that he wanted to say.
"It is the group from the Dark Coalition, they are bringing at least five massively-sized passenger hovercrafts, they are all filled with people, and they are now dumping them down in the direction of the Cinder Pine!"
Qin Feng's expression instantly changed.
"Understood, I'll be there immediately!"
Qin Feng did not hide that information from the others, and all of them were also shocked to receive such sudden news.
All they had thought of was to throw in stones and trees, and they had missed out the idea of throwing in humans!
However, the enhanced effect of the intelligent species on the Cinder Pine would undoubtedly be insanely impactful.
"Bai Li, let's go!"
Qin Feng had no time to care about the varied views of the others, and he did not wish to continue the discussion with them either, he immediately commanded Bai Li and teleported.
Swoosh!
Qin Feng and Bai Li had already left the hotel, they were instantly relocated to a pitch-black surrounding in the wilderness.
Under the dark sky, there was a brightly lit area at a far off distance, and when looked from afar, the umbrella-shaped tree was still visible.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Within the blink of an eye, Qin Feng had already gotten close to it.
There were indeed five massively-sized passenger hovercrafts that were in the sky, they were about the same as the hover trains, one of them could carry at least a hundred passengers.
The cabin doors of the hovercrafts were then opened up, and shadows of human bodies were being dumped continuously onto the Cinder Pine!
"Ah ah ah!"
Horrifyingly miserable shrieks echoed across the night sky.
