Chapter 322: Special Technique: Refresh

Oh? Interesting.

Not bad, I cant believe the kid ignored a Karan tribesman. Isnt he afraid of revenge?

Yeah, he probably doesnt know them very well. Considering their temper, hes in some danger.

Just as the crowd was speculating, Akting suddenly smiled and said, Right, youve just returned from Fortress Three. Im sure youre tired, so I wont take up any more of your time. Feel free to come to me if you need anything.

Xiang Nings gaze slightly darkened as he watched Akting leave. Akting was a threat.

Fury Points +333

The amount of Fury Points wasnt a lot, but it wasnt too little, either. At the very least, Akting bore hostile feelings toward him. However, they were in the fortress and he wouldnt be able to do anything. He shook it out of his mind, wanting to look for his sister. He had never wanted her to come to such a dangerous place, but hed had no choicethe fortress was at least a little safer than Hang City.

As they prepared to get a meal and some rest, a shrill siren sounded. Every martial artist in the fortress looked up at the projected screen and saw a livestream of a dense stampede charging toward Fortress One.

A stampede! Fifty thousand beasts at least!

Theyre Silverhorn Wolves, more than a thousand of them! At least half are tier four Beast Generals, too... have they gone mad?

Heavens, what is that?! Iron Tanks?! Have the beasts launched their ultimate attack? More than a thousand Beast General Iron Tanks!

No! Thats an Azure Behemoth, an Azure Behemoth is here!

The martial artists within the fortress all had furrowed brows, watching the projected stream as their faces fell. Although the Silverhorn Wolves were pack animals, they never appeared in packs of more than thirty. Their Alphas were nothing on their own, but if it was leading such a large pack, based on the power displayed by the hierarchy it must be able to kill even a tier seven martial artist.

Iron Tank beasts had that name for a reason. They were rhinoceros-type beasts with defensive abilities among the top five of all beasts, making them extremely difficult to kill. Many martial artists had died because of them.

Finally, an Azure Behemoth, which was a fifteen-meter-tall bear-type mutant. There were very few of them, but all of them were extremely strong. According to historical records, more than a fifth of the destroyed cities had encountered Azure Behemoths. That was why they were called the Harbingers of Destruction!

Beast Soldiers, large and small alike, made up most of the rest of the army.

But that wasnt the end. The video switched to a river on the northeastern side of the fortress, which was also the water source of the fortress. There were more than a thousand beasts in the river.

Misergators! More than a thousand Misergators! During the early stages of the invasion, Fortress Sevens irrigation system had also been infested by those beasts. Fortress Seven had paid a great price to clean up their water system, because it was difficult for martial artists to fight at full capacity in the water. Although spiritual cultivators could use hot weapons and Mental Power to kill them, high-tier spiritual cultivators were rare. Fortress Sevens drains had almost become the breaking point of the war.

Currently, more than half of the reinforcements sent to Fortress Seven were spiritual cultivators, but it still wasnt looking good. Based on the data, out of a hundred spiritual cultivators who had arrived, only about ten were tier four or higher. That was too few.

Increasing ones Mental Power required more talent than martial arts. All martial artists needed was a hard work ethic and they could advance. No matter how slow, they were still getting stronger. However, there were limits to Mental Power, unless a person underwent special methods to trigger their bodies. And that was extremely dangerous, so no one risked their lives for such things.

The stampede is estimated to arrive in twenty minutes. We request every martial artist to participate in battle.

If you wanted to go to battle, you must register using your communication device, which was a watch. On the one hand, it was to collect data on the number of people in battle. And on the other, if you died in war or were permanently disabled, it would be used to claim a compensation fee. The Federation treated its heroes well, forking out astronomical sums every year in compensation alone.

Xiang Ning looked at the crowd and didnt register on impulse. If he were acting alone, he wouldnt have hesitated, but this time he wasnt alone. If he registered, the rest would follow. They must think things through, as it was a dangerous situation.

Its too dangerous, theres more than two thousand tier four Beast Generals out there. Ive never seen anything on this scale before. Dont you think wed be going to our deaths out there?

Yeah, even an Azure Behemoth is here, shouldnt they use some weapons of mass destruction to kill some first?

The Iron Tanks are the main force. Thats a whole herd of them! Who would dare charge in front like that? That would be a death wish!

The crowd erupted in discussion and ten minutes passed. The number of people who volunteered for the terrestrial battle was an abysmal two hundred. Yes, only about two hundred people were willing to go fight.

The aquatic battle fared even worse, with only a hundred volunteers. Even if they could kill five per person, they still werent enough!

The speaker sounded once again. Im personally requesting that everyone fight. We severely lack manpower on each front and have already reassigned our forces from the southeast. The beasts will arrive in ten minutes. If nobody goes, I will.

The hall fell silent.

The people in the resting area were hunting teams, independent mercenaries, and martial artists who were there for materials and riches. They werent the fortress true reserves.

Before their arrival, the army had already been fighting at a heavy cost. Those were soldiers who had fought for several days and nights in a row, and if they didnt need their rest so badly, the commander of Fortress One wouldnt have begged the people here.

The commander was an old General, Gao Dingjun. He was a sixty-seven-year-old man and a tier seven cultivator. Although he was old, he never surrendered to age and radiated iron strength.

When they saw an old man walk out of the hallway, many people were moved.

Congratulations for following your true heart. You receive one Special Technique: Refresh (non-upgradable)

When Xiang Ning saw the elderly General holding his weapon and walking out with heavy footsteps, he had felt a surge of courage and motivation he had never felt before. Thus, without asking anyone else, he had decided to participate in the battle.

The special technique was unexpected.
