Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Stadium
Translator: 549690339
The sports stadium in Yi Lan County was located in the heart of the county town, surrounded by a recreational square. In the past, it used to be a gathering place for residents, but now it had become the most concentrated area of monsters in the entire city.
The Demon Hunters drove to the edge of the recreational square without encountering any large groups of mutated beasts.
However, when they reached the closest street to the square, the vehicle could not continue any further.Please visit frššwš.šøššŖ website to read fastest update
At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and under the hazy light, there was a dense group of monsters on the recreational square, numbering around ten thousand.
Looking at the scene gave the team members an uneasy feeling, as these creatures could easily destroy them without the protection of their armored vehicle.
āOld Gao, see if you can spot the giant palm bear? Try to find its position,ā Shi Lei instructed, and Gao Yan stuck his head out of the armored car window to look through the infrared binoculars.
āThereās a group of Fiery Mane Horses, a group of Boar Wolves, and a pack of Bloodthirst mastiffs. Wow! Thereās also a group of Iron-Arm Apes at the entrance of the stadium. Those guys are not easy to deal with. Haha, there are even Cold Crows on the central lighthouse; they are much more powerful than Brain-eating Swallows. They are all E-level Mutated Birds.ā
After observing for awhile, Gao Yan withdrew from the window: āCaptain, I didnāt see any giant palm bears. And there arenāt many low-level mutated beasts here. The closer they are to the stadium, the higher the level of the mutated beasts. It seems that the high-level Mutated Beastās nest is inside the stadium, so the giant palm bear might be in there.ā
Everyone turned their gaze to the sports stadium. The county sports stadium was not large; it was simply a basketball court with about two to three thousand spectator seats. The building was surprisingly well-preserved, with a dense crowd of high-level mutated beasts gathered near the entrance.
Another strange phenomenon was that all the mutated beasts were facing the direction of the sports stadium. Some had noticed the arrival of the armored car, but they did not make any moves.
āItās too dangerous. The armored car canāt move forward any further. If we make any noise, the mutated beasts will definitely notice. If we startle them, we will be torn to pieces,ā Shi Lei instructed Zhao Liang to turn off the engine, and the team hurriedly planned their tactics.
āOur target is the giant palm bear inside the stadium, but it seems impossible to get through on the ground. Does anyone have any ideas?ā
Zhao Liang thought for a moment: āPerhaps we can wait for other teams to appear and let them lead some of the mutated beasts away, giving us a chance to pass. However, I suspect that the other teams are also observing us from the shadows, and nobody wants to be the first to step out.ā
Shi Lei nodded: āIndeed, no one is foolish enough to do that. This idea will be hard to achieve.ā
At that moment, Ye Tiancheng suggested, āThere must be a sewer inside the sports stadium, right? We can consider entering through the underground pipes.ā
Shi Lei waved his hand: āNo, the sewer approach is no longer practical. The sewers are a paradise for mutant rats. If we go in, we might trigger a Rat Tide, and we would be wiped out.ā
At a diagonal angle across the square from them, at a street corner, the Demon God Squad was there, and Li Mengxi and Ruoruo were the ones who fired the shots.
āDamn it! Those bastards of Demon God! Kong Shan almost killed us! Old Gao, can you snipe from a distance and take out Demon Godās two women first?ā Ye Tiancheng said angrily.
Gao Yan shook his head: āIām afraid that wonāt work. If it were just our two squads, it would be fine, but Iāve already seen several Martial Artist squads appear here. In the presence of so many people, not hunting monsters but killing other Martial Artists will be punished by the Federation.ā
There are rules among Martial Artists, prohibiting internal fighting, because the common enemy of mankind is the Mutated Beast, not humans.
Of course, this rule is not very useful. The warehouse area of Base City is a compromise, and such duels are allowed.
Even in the wild, many Martial Artists would start fighting at the slightest disagreement. As long as there is no direct evidence, no one can do anything to you. But if you suddenly attack and kill people in a situation with many witnesses, you will definitely not escape the capture of the Federation. Once caught and convicted, itās a dead end.
āSo this group of bastards got away with it?ā Ye Tiancheng was still unconvinced.
āForget it Tiancheng, no matter what grievances we have, we canāt take action at this time. Since Demon God Squad has started hunting, letās not idle either, get ready to take action, money is all over the place!ā
As soon as Shi Lei finished speaking, several more squads appeared around the square and began to take action as well.
The mutated beasts in the square were somewhat strange. They all moved towards the direction of the stadium, as if on a pilgrimage. As long as the Martial Artists around them didnāt attack their own group, they surprisingly ignored them. The usually tempting prey seemed to have lost its appeal.
Although Shi Lei and the others didnāt know why this was happening, such a rare situation presented the best opportunity to strike.
āOld Gao! Prioritize clearing the low-level mutated beasts, especially the mutated birds in the sky. If we donāt get rid of these things, retreating will be a
big problem. ā
Gao Yan nodded, loaded an armor-piercing bullet, aimed his sniper rifle, and blew the head of a huge Cold Crow with one shot. The corpse fell down from the lamppost in the square with spiraling motion.
The few Cold Crows around it were enraged and flapped their wings towards the direction of the Demon Hunters, but those at a slightly farther distance remained undisturbed.
āHehe! Today is really good. These mutated beasts donāt seem to be as aggressive anymore. If they had been this docile earlier, Earth would have been restored a long time ago.ā
Gao Yan was quite proud, and Shi Lei and the others were also overjoyed. In this case, the clearance plan could proceed smoothly.
Only Lin Zhen, who proposed the clearance plan, was not as optimistic as they were. Lin Zhen had seen such a situation where countless monsters gathered and didnāt move.. The only explanation was that a high-level monster was about to evolve successfully!
