Beast Taming: Sequence Evolution Chapter 107
Airships could be said to be the Alliance Academy of Sciences’ greatest research achievement.
Although their speed could not compare to supersonic fighter jets and could only barely approach the speed of sound, airships could freely hover in place, and they were also equipped with energy shields, enough to withstand attacks from high-tier Ferocious Beasts.
However, when facing the Violet-Gold Berserk Ape, even the most advanced airships had no power to resist.
With a single punch thrown, the invisible air was instantly compressed, forming an immensely powerful air cannon that directly blasted the surrounding airships out of the sky.
As for the Skystrike Type-3 Hypersonic Missile, the shockwave produced by its explosion was not even as threatening as the armor-piercing rounds fired by the airships.
Only to see a purple glow rise across the surface of the Violet-Gold Berserk Ape’s body; the missile’s power merely forced the Violet-Gold Berserk Ape back more than ten meters.
After dealing with the irritating airships, the Violet-Gold Berserk Ape directly stepped through the air and headed toward the distance to support the Azure Moon Wolf King.
As for why the Violet-Gold Berserk Ape went to support the Azure Moon Wolf King, it was mainly because there was also a Legendary Beast King behind them. Even if the Violet-Gold Berserk Ape disliked the Azure Moon Wolf King, it could only act according to orders.
At the same time, a Griffin Knight squad totaling thirty people also arrived near Xu Chunjun.
“Good, good. I never expected that behind this beast tide, there would actually be a Legendary Beast King pulling the strings.”
Seeing the Violet-Gold Berserk Ape come to provide support, Xu Chunjun immediately guessed the reason.
After all, lord-tier Ferocious Beasts had already begun to develop intelligence. Under normal circumstances, they would not submit to one another; only a Legendary Beast King could prevent them from turning on each other.
“Lieutenant General Xu, the situation is urgent now. You should withdraw first.”
“Withdraw? There is no word ‘withdraw’ in my, Xu Chunjun’s, dictionary.”
“All of you get behind me. Today, let these beasts see what is called a War Knight.”
Facing two lord-tier Ferocious Beasts, Xu Chunjun displayed a bold, sky-piercing aura, his eyes filled with blazing battle intent.
“Yes.”
As one of the Alliance’s three ace legions, the Griffin Knight Regiment showed not the slightest hesitation in the face of Xu Chunjun’s orders. Expelling Ferocious Beasts was their mission.
Moreover, they understood what Xu Chunjun intended to do. At the thought of fighting side by side with a lieutenant general, everyone in the Griffin Knight Regiment felt their blood boil.
“Aura skill, activate.”
War Knights, aside from mastering combined techniques formed through the fusion of the Beast Tamer and beast aura, also commanded a wide variety of aura skills.
When a circle of white aura appeared, enveloping Xu Chunjun and the entire Griffin Knight squad, their auras instantly connected into a single whole.
When facing any attack, the effect of the aura would distribute the force evenly among everyone, while the power of the others could also be added onto Xu Chunjun.
The birth of aura skills came from War Knights comprehending the fusion of their own aura with their beasts’ aura while executing combined techniques.
“Kill.”
“Kill……”
Facing two lord-tier Ferocious Beasts, Xu Chunjun directly led the Griffin Knight squad in a charge.
Above the Northern Wasteland, fierce slaughter instantly erupted, terrifying auras tearing apart the floating clouds in the sky.
The beast tide that had originally been assaulting the military camp now also became somewhat chaotic.
More than ten li away, Beast Tamers and hunters who were fleeing for their lives felt the battle intent carried through the air and stopped in their tracks, using high-powered binoculars to observe.
“So this is a War Knight?”
Through the scene barely visible through the binoculars, Zhou Ming felt profoundly shaken.
By taming Ferocious Beasts and advancing step by step through rituals, Blue Star’s humans could grasp power beyond the mundane. Zhou Ming felt deep admiration for those predecessors.
Even in the most desperate Doomsday Era, they had not chosen to give up, but instead had opened up a brand-new path for Blue Star’s humanity.
“Impressive, right? I once personally witnessed the power of a War Knight, which is why I chose the Violent Lion as my Beast. My goal is to advance and become a War Knight.”
The Lion King gently stroked his Beast as he spoke to the group about his aspirations.
“Keep bragging. If you can become a War Knight, I’ll take my Wind-listening Rat and charge into the Dimensional Rift.”
After hearing this, the Mole joked with a cheerful grin.
“Short-sighted.”
At the side, Flower Scorpion directly gave him a hard slap, almost knocking the Mole to the ground.
“Who says I don’t have ambition? Watch how I win you over.”
For the sake of a man’s dignity, the Mole finally spoke out his aspiration.
“Little chick.”
“You……”
“Alright, everyone, the beast tide is moving toward us.”
Just as Flower Scorpion and the Mole were about to start bickering, Zhou Ming quickly spoke up to stop them.
Because Xu Chunjun and the others were battling two lord-tier Ferocious Beasts, the resulting impact was driving the beast tide to spread southward, and the danger they faced was far from over.
After hearing this, Flower Scorpion and the Mole immediately stopped arguing and continued fleeing together with Zhou Ming and the others.
As for the outcome of the battle between the military and the Ferocious Beasts behind them, it was no longer something small figures like them could concern themselves with.
Several days later, outside Qinshan Base, Zhou Ming and the others finally saw the majestic and imposing city walls.
The machine guns, missiles, and other heavy firepower exuding an aura of slaughter instead made them feel inexplicably reassured at this moment.
With the defensive firepower of a medium-sized base, it was enough to withstand an invasion by lord-tier Ferocious Beasts.
As the Alliance continued to develop, besides achieving considerable success in the Beast Taming system, technology had also begun to gradually recover.
Technological knowledge once left behind in various ruins was once again obtained by the Alliance through archaeological excavation.
In addition, with the Alliance placing emphasis on technological development, and the changes brought about by energy crystal technology, the defensive capabilities of human bases had also improved significantly.
Only small bases responsible for monitoring, producing supplies, and collecting resources might face the danger of being wiped out by a beast tide.
“Everyone, now that we’re back at Qinshan Base, let me play host and treat everyone to food and drinks.”
Zhou Ming, having obtained the class advancement materials related to the half-orc profession, did not rush to return home to examine his gains.
This escape from the Northern Wasteland had seen the Lion King and the others help him greatly.
After all, two legs could not outrun four, and this was also a weakness of Zhou Ming’s method of controlling the Ironthread Snake swarm.
Therefore, after returning to Qinshan Base, Zhou Ming planned to thank the Lion King and the others.
“Great. It’s been days since I last drank; my throat’s been itching for a long time.”
Hearing that there would be alcohol, the low-presence Doghead immediately agreed.
“Alright, then we’ll slaughter Ten Thousand Snakes once. It has to be good wine.”
“Don’t worry, Lion King. There’ll be plenty of good wine.”
Zhou Ming did not mind the Lion King’s request at all. They could be considered comrades who had gone through life and death together.
After entering Qinshan Base, Zhou Ming led them straight to Tenghua Restaurant.
In the end, everyone drank until they were thoroughly drunk. As the host, Zhou Ming settled everyone properly before returning to his residence with a haze of alcohol.
With alcohol all over him, combined with the exhaustion brought on by fleeing, Zhou Ming collapsed into sleep the moment he got home.
However, before falling asleep, he still retained some awareness and directly summoned the Ironthread Snake swarm, ensuring his safety would not encounter any accidents.
No one would have imagined that in the pitch-black corner of the room, hundreds of Ironthread Snakes were hidden.
If a thief were to enter the room, who knew what kind of fate would await them.
