Chapter 2738 Attack Of The Wild Beasts
“Based on what I recall, it has always been the case,” Scar Face replied. He then turned to the three brothers.
“Have you guys noticed that too?”
Dooragan replied, “We've long noticed the odd occurrence, but we can't confirm whether the attacks are related to
the stones. Sometimes the beasts attacked within ten days of us finding the Heavenly Spirit Stone, and other times
it was several months later. However, they attacked within ten days more than half the time.”
Zeke nodded thoughtfully. “Great, this information is very important to me. Look for Phoenix if you have any
requests. She will try to satisfy them.”
Scar Face was ecstatic as he hadn't expected his casual guess would bring such a big reward!
He was even more loyal to Zeke now.
After Scar Face led the men out of the room, he said proudly, “What do you think? I didn't deceive you guys, right?

I believe this is just the beginning. Maybe Mr. Williams will even make us a Centurion or even Legatus in the future!”
The brothers said in unison, “Scar Face, you're right. Thank you for showing us the way. Mr. Williams is truly
righteous, much better than those who only make empty promises.”
They were referring to Theo, of course.
After Scar Face and the others left, Zeke fell into contemplation.
Each time Scar Face collected the Heavenly Spirit Stone, it would attract a beast attack.
Did the owner of the Heavenly Spirit Stone place it in my territory in order to provoke a beast attack on me? This
possibility is unlikely. Those beasts don't pose any threat to me at all. So what's the other party's intention? It's really
hard to figure out. Oh well, let's not think about that for now. Let's focus on the issue of the fire seed.
Without solving the problem of the fire seed, one would not be able to forge a Black Level divine weapon, let alone
an Earth Level.
At the district city gate of Centuria, several guards gathered and chattered excitedly.
“The ten beasts that attacked the last time were too damn fierce. I've been on Theos Island my whole life, and I've
never seen such voracious beasts.”
“Yeah! A Legatus sacrificed himself to destroy a beast.”
“The beast could match against a Legatus. I can't believe I'm worse than a beast.”
“Our guards suffered heavy losses that time. Over twenty people died. I hope Commander Williams can inject some
fresh blood into our team.”
“Indeed. We are the remnants of the defeated. If ten wild beasts were to attack again, we probably wouldn't be
able to hold the forte.”
“Quiet! Can you hear that noise?”
“What's going on?”
The guards immediately fell silent, pricking up their ears to listen carefully.

A dull sound came from afar. They were gradually getting louder and clearly approaching their direction.
The guards immediately became alert when they sensed something was amiss.
One of the guards quickly went from the top of the tower to the bottom, pressing his ear to the ground and
listening carefully.
After he listened for a moment, his face turned pale. “It's footsteps. Something is quickly approaching us. There are
a lot of them and moving very fast.”
“Alert! Full alert for the entire city!”
The guards immediately sounded the alarm, causing chaos throughout the city as everyone prepared for battle.
The crowd stood ready, looking into the distance.
The sound grew louder and louder, like thundering footsteps.
When the sound drew close enough, they could clearly see entire groves of trees falling rapidly and clouds of dust
rising. It was an imposing sight that made one's heart skip a beat.
