Forbidden Zone of the Human Race

Chapter 354: Their Master

Xiang Ning’s heart started racing when he saw Fang Zhenyuan appear beside him. He had never seen a fight between tier seven martial artists before, but it seemed that today would be the day. He clenched his fist in anticipation.

“Sigh, I really regret letting you date my daughter. I can’t even live in peace,” Fang Zhenyuan sighed. He had not once let his gaze drift away from Envy.

Xiang Ning took back whatever respect he had felt.

“Alright, I know you’re strong. I’ll block the attacks from that tier seven bastard. You just need to kill the mutants and block the stampede for another thirty minutes. Reinforcements will arrive soon,” Fang Zhenyuan ordered before the battle started.

“Yes, sir!” There were ten tier five martial artists and a single tier six martial artist behind Xiang Ning, all of whom were ready for combat.

If it weren’t for other areas needing protection, they would have doubled their forces to guard the Chaos. While their elite team was on par with those from the Seven Deadly Sins, the number of tier four and below martial artists was vastly smaller than the number of beasts present. Some of the beasts were powerful species.

There were only two ways to win: kill all of the beasts, or kill Envy. There was no other way.

“Prepare yourself!”

The battlefield exploded in a frenzy of activity as the spiritual cultivators prepared their hot weapons to rain metal on the beasts. Once the beasts were in sight, the martial artists sprang into action.

“Fire!”

Hundreds of AX-733 assault rifles rained a hail of armor-piercing rounds onto the beasts. Their effective range was a kilometer, but eight hundred meters was the longest range at which they could deal maximum damage! The assault rifles could fire three hundred and twenty rounds in a single minute, especially those that had larger magazines capable of holding eighty rounds.

The first wave of hellfire managed to kill off a thousand or so beasts. The moment the first fusillade ended, the second immediately started. Hundreds more rifles continued their suppressive fire as thousands of beasts fell.

Even though it looked impressive, only three thousand beasts were slain in the barrage; there were still seven thousand remaining. Zhao Zhongxian, the journalist, was shaking in excitement. His livestream had the most viewers on the internet as of now!

“Not good, we’re losing in terms of numbers. The real fighting force of the beasts is hiding at the back while those at the front are just bullet sponges.”

“I hope they can hold on!”

“They should be fine. Sect Master Fang is there. They’ll be able to hold on.”

“Hopefully Xiang Ning will show us another miracle.”

When the second round of gunfire ended, Xiang Ning walked forward. Fang Hao tried pulling him back and shouted, “Hey, where do you think you’re going?”

“I’m making sure we can shoot down more of them.”

“Huh?”

Xiang Ning pulled out the Devourer. The sword had regained its glorious 1.7-meter-long blade.”I’ve found another use for the bioweapon. Let me try something.”

Envy was ecstatic as he saw the bioweapon.

“Ooooooh! Is that a bioweapon? It’s perfect! I can even sense a dangerous aura from it! Looks like it’s consumed numerous beast cores from powerful beasts! I’m so envious! I want it! I want it now!” he laughed maniacally.

Obsession was afraid. He had never seen Lord Envy be so excited.

“Lord Envy, let me go and retrieve the weapon for you after I kill him.”

“Wait, let’s see what he plans to do.” Both of them look at Xiang Ning leisurely walking in front of the spiritual cultivators.

“Hey, where are you going? Don’t move on your own without orders!” one of the spiritual cultivators shouted at Xiang Ning.

“Quickly reload and get ready to shoot again.”

Everyone was confused. Only Zhao Zhongxian understood what Xiang Ning was going to do. He was going to recreate the legendary scene, one that depicted him as the master of the beasts. It had only happened once on a large scale. It had also happened once on a smaller scale, but there weren’t even a thousand beasts then, so it wasn’t that impactful.

This was a rare chance to obtain a large amount of Fury Points, so Xiang Ning used his Taunt! He deeply inhaled, then shouted, “YOU FUCKING ANIMALS!”

Fury Points +145

Fury Points +567

Fury Points +789

...

His voice spread through the area and all of the beasts clearly heard him with their superior hearing. Xiang Ning just stood there for three seconds after shouting.

The three thousand beasts in front roared at the same time. It was so loud that the earth shook from the sheer magnitude of the sound. The rest of the beasts were also roaring in rage, but they were too far away for the humans to hear. Some of the men had to cover their ears. Why was Xiang Ning attracting their attention like that?

“Did he get hit in the head too hard?”

“Why the fuck is he angering the beasts?! It’s suicide!”

“What the fuck is happening?”

Before they were able to make any more comments, Xiang Ning sprang his plan into motion.

“Equip the Sovereign's Throne!”

“Activate Disguise!”

“Select target!”

“Select Simian Sage!”

Boom!

He planted the Devourer into the ground and beasts and humans alike felt the tremor.

“How could this be? Lord Envy, his aura is too strong!”

“Interesting! This is too interesting! His aura isn’t something a human should have. Hah! You damn Federation. Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t allow the existence of mutants? How do you explain this?!” Envy was angry when he felt that fearsome aura. He recalled the incident that had happened ten years ago.

As for the beasts? In their eyes, Xiang Ning was a fearsome beast that reigned over them. His was a force that suppressed their genes, blood, and souls. He wasn’t a chasm that they could pass! One wrong step and they would die.josei

The Devourer was also exuding its own aura. As a bioweapon, it had consumed many high-tier beasts and their cores, so it was naturally very strong right now. The aura of a tier six Simian Sage was enough to cause even tier three beasts to lose all of their fighting power, while beasts of tier four and above were cowering in fear. The Sovereign’s Throne was amplifying the effect!

“My mom was asking why I was kneeling in front of my computer, so I asked her to come and see. Luckily I was there when she fell backward!”

“How did he do it?”

“Don’t tell me Xiang Ning is a beast in human skin?”

“That’s just slander. See that sword? It's a bioweapon. Only those destined to become a Beast King have beast cores that can be used to craft them. Xiang Ning has gone through so many battles, so he must be strong, too. But to think he could stop thousands of beasts!”
