101: Chapter 101 The Golden Tower Destroyed

Just as Qin Ce was planning the assassination of the Raven King, a chill suddenly ran down his back, and his Nine-Star Insight activated automatically.

A faint warning of a stinging sensation came from the City Lord's side.

Qin Ce turned to look.

He saw the Lava Bear shove the Jade-Horned Flying Tiger away, then knock back the City Lord.

As it turned around, those crimson eyes deliberately glanced in his direction.

That one glance made all the hair on Qin Ce's body stand up!

Oh no!

This beast bore a grudge against him.

He had ambushed the Beast King.

He had used the top-grade ice crystal core cannon to interrupt the duel between the Lava Bear and the City Lord, creating an opening for the City Lord to attack the Raven King.

Therefore, this Beast King had been looking for a chance to take revenge on them.

It hadn't attacked yet only because it was occupied.

But given any opportunity, the Beast King would definitely strike them with thunderous force.

When that happened, it would be a Bright Moon Level blow; even if it wasn't full power, just a casual strike would be enough to take them all out!

Calculating this, it was no longer safe to stay here.

Thinking of this, Qin Ce took a deep breath and made a decision.

His hands moved away from the control console.

The team members beside him were stunned.

Because they sensed the energy they were inputting into the Azure Bird started to lag.

It seemed to be ceasing its acceptance of wind-type energy.

"You... what are you doing?"

"Why stop fighting?"

"The situation on the front line is getting increasingly unfavorable."

Qin Ce did not answer.

Instead, after stabilizing the energy within his body, he completely severed the mental link between himself and the golden tower.

"Buzz, buzz... buzz."

A series of intermittent, light sounds.

The light on top of the crystal core tower flickered a few times, then extinguished.

The gold-level crystal core tower went dead again.

The team members were all dumbfounded.

Seeing the crystal core tower extinguish, the members attacking other ferocious beasts outside also came in.

"Brother Qin, what is this..."

Qin Ce waved his hand to interrupt his question.

He pointed in the direction of the City Lord.

There, two huge, terrifying beast figures were still entangled in battle.

"Don't ask anymore, evacuate immediately. The Beast King has its eyes on this place and could attack at any moment."

"Beast King?"

"Here?"

While everyone was still bewildered, Qin Ce had already carried the captain of the Gold Rank team, who had been settled in the tower, out of the gold-level crystal core tower.

A green shadow flew into a building three hundred meters away in the blink of an eye.

"He... what is he doing?" one team member asked stammeringly.

The burly vice-captain was silent for two seconds, then suddenly turned around and shouted sternly:

"What are you all standing there for?! Everyone, evacuate immediately! Take everything you can carry! Hurry!"

"But..."

"But what! Listen to him!"

The team members woke up as if from a dream and began to take action.

Eleven people scrambled to pack up valuable strategic supplies and sprinted toward Qin Ce, three hundred meters away.

However.

Only one hundred meters.

They had only run one hundred meters—

BOOM!!!

A thunderous explosion came from behind!

Everyone instinctively threw themselves to the ground, clutching their heads with their hands!

A huge shockwave surged from behind, kicking up dust and rubble that filled the sky!

The debris hitting their backs hurt!

But they couldn't care about the pain; they just lay flat for dear life, waiting for the shockwave to pass.

After a full ten seconds or more, the roaring gradually subsided.

They slowly raised their heads and looked back—

That golden tower was gone.

No, it couldn't be said that it was gone.

The tower body was still there, but the upper half had completely disappeared.

A huge lava boulder with a diameter of over ten meters had pierced through the tower body, shattering the entire top of the tower!

Dark red flames were still burning on the remaining tower body; those were the lingering traces of lava energy.

If they had still been in the tower...

If they hadn't listened to that young man...

Everyone felt a chill down their spines.

The burly vice-captain stared blankly at the ruined tower and muttered:

"He... he guessed right... there really was revenge..."

A team member next to him said with a trembling voice: "How did he know it would come? How could he calculate it so accurately?"

The vice-captain struggled to stand up, looked at the ruins for a long time, and then said in a low voice:

"That youth... he saw through the battlefield."

"He is not just strong."

"His judgment of the battle situation is more accurate than all of us."

The team members were silent, their admiration for Qin Ce deepening another level.

The Bronze Rank youth had saved them twice.

The first time was with strength.

The second time was with wisdom.

And just as they were sighing with emotion,

a green shadow emerged from the building ahead, flew over their heads, and a voice came: "Take good care of your captain."

Having said that, he used the cover of the buildings to fly directly toward the Main City District.

"What is Brother Qin going to do again?"

The burly vice-captain smacked his lips and said: "Could he have seen that Gold Rank mission and gone to find the Raven King?"

"Ah? That's a Gold Rank mission. What can he do as a Bronze Rank?" someone asked, puzzled.

But the vice-captain next to him slapped the back of his head.

"Why does that sound so familiar? This is the second time you've said that, right?"

"Uh..."

...

At this moment, Qin Ce was about to return to the beast tide range of the Main City District.

He was riding the Azure Bird, flying low against the buildings of the Inner City, his Nine-Star Insight fully operational, carefully avoiding those powerful ferocious beasts.

Then he discovered that the level of ferocious beasts in the Main City District had also become higher.

Silver Rank beasts were everywhere.

Gold Rank beasts could also be seen everywhere.

Qin Ce held his breath, kept the Azure Bird as quiet as possible, and wove through the gaps in the battlefield.

And his gaze was always locked on the sky ahead.

There, the Raven King was slowly climbing. Whether it was because of the Raven King's severe injuries, the duration of the Ink Feather Mist had become shorter.

From time to time, one could see it bathed in blood through the thin mist, half of its body stained red, its flight path unsteady.

However, beside it, there were hundreds of elite ravens guarding it, and those ravens were all Silver Rank or above.

In addition to that, there were many other flying ferocious beasts of Gold Rank among them.

It seemed that the Beast King had specially sent them to protect it.

Because the ferocious beasts now also knew that the outcome of this war depended on the Raven King.

As long as it was alive, the Raven Flock would continue to attack the power system.

As long as the power system collapsed, the city defense would be paralyzed.

As long as the city defense was paralyzed, the ferocious beasts could completely pour into the city.

At that time, Fengling City would surely perish.

Therefore, they would spare no cost to protect the Raven King.

...

And below them,

the ferocious beasts that were originally firmly restricted to the triangular area were now spreading into an oval-shaped beast tide, spreading in all directions.

Because the integrity of the power supply system had already dropped to sixty percent.

Those power-dependent city defense facilities were firing blanks in large swathes.

The ferocious beasts that had lost suppression poured out from that area like a tide.

Countless ferocious beasts roared and sprinted, charging into the streets that had lost fire suppression, engaging in street fighting with the defending Beast Tamers.

Screams, explosions, and roars rose one after another.

The whole city was trembling.

The triangular area that originally only occupied one-fifteenth of the Main City District had now expanded to one-fifth of the whole city.

And this trend was still constantly expanding.

The signs of being out of control were already very obvious.

So, what about those summoned Gold Rank Beast Tamers?
