Chapter 60: Predators

Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios

“Brother Feng, you… you want to challenge the Demon King?”

Feng Xiu was so excited that he could not even speak. Challenging the Demon King Dongfang Sheng was not unusual. In fact, there were many people who attempted to challenge the Demon King. Many martial artists wanted to drag the Demon King off the throne before breaking the genetic lock.

Unfortunately, even after so many years, no one had been able to pull the Demon King off his throne, thereby cementing the Demon King’s undefeated legend.

Even in the other two top-notch martial arts academies, the Demon King Dongfang Sheng had a distinguished reputation. He was almost universally recognized as the strongest person below the inhuman level.

Now, Lin Feng challenging the Demon King held a completely different meaning. He only went to challenge the Demon King with absolute strength. Feng Xiu knew very well that regardless of success, this was definitely going to be sensational news.

“This may also be the last time I challenge Dongfang Sheng. Regardless of whether I succeed, I won’t challenge him again in the future. You can watch this battle, but don’t alert the others.”

“Understood, understood.”

Feng Xiu hurriedly promised that he would not alert anyone else. How lucky was he to have Lin Feng’s permission to watch the battle? Such a battle, however sought after, could only be chanced upon with sufficient luck. It was even more awe-inspiring than hearing that someone had broken the genetic

lock.

“Take me to the Virtual Battle Chamber.”

Feng Xiu immediately led Lin Feng to the Virtual Battle Chamber. At this moment, there was no one in the Virtual Battle Chamber. At the Dragon Mountain Base, every martial artist was working hard to kill dire beasts and accumulate points. Hence, the Virtual Battle Chamber was not patronized much.

However, this was just as well. Lin Feng did not want to be too high-profile in the first place. There being no one in the Virtual Battle Chamber was more to his liking.

Thus, without any hesitation, Lin Feng quickly entered the Virtual Battle Chamber and lay in the virtual cabin. The next moment, he felt his consciousness being stripped away, and he had arrived in a room filled with darkness.

“Twant to challenge the person ranked first, Dongfang Sheng.”

As Lin Feng’s voice fell, the Virtual Battle Chamber lit up, and a huge arena appeared.

This arena was extremely large. One couldn’t see the end of the arena as far as their sight went. They could fight to their hearts’ content.

This was the largest arena Lin Feng had ever seen when challenging someone. Although it was a virtual scene, the Virtual Battle Chamber’s Al system probably sensed that Lin Feng’s current strength was extraordinary, so even the “specification” was much higher.

Buzz.

Soon, Lin Feng saw a familiar figure again. The Demon King, Dongfang Sheng, still had an aloof look on his face. His eyes were as cold as ice, as if he was looking down on everything.

“Dongfang Sheng, we meet again!”

Lin Feng did not even summon his battle saber. In this challenge, he was not using any weapons. His fists were what he trusted the most!

In the conference hall of the Dragon Mountain Base, 16 inhuman experts were sitting upright and still, their expressions very solemn.

Dragon Mountain Base could be considered to have suffered a huge loss this time. The intelligence department was censured in particular. Even the head of the intelligence department had his position directly revoked by the Chief Commander.

Their reconnaissance was so poor that they had failed to even realize a brand-new kind of dire beast had appeared in the Dragon Mountain region.

Commander Long Duo’s gaze was solemn as he said in a low voice, “Everyone, we’ve suffered heavy losses this time. Ifa little fellow hadn’t killed a relatively important dire beast, we probably wouldn’t be sitting here right now. In this matter, the intelligence department is responsible, I am responsible,

and so are you.

“However, now is not the time to pursue responsibility. We have to figure out what’s going on with the new dire beast. This time, I invited Professor Wei Yuan from the research institute at the base to introduce the new dire beast to us in detail.”

Everyone immediately looked at the spectacled old man. Professor Wei was a highly famous biology expert, and was especially a figure of authority when it came to research on dire beasts.

Although Professor Wei was not a martial artist, his academic status was not inferior in the slightest to these inhuman experts who had broken the genetic lock. action

Despite having so many people staring at him, Professor Wei wasn’t nervous. He merely adjusted his glasses and said, “We dissected the corpses of the fleshworm dire beast and observed their cells closely. We found that they have very high cellular activity, and their rate of metabolism is shockingly rapid.

They need to replenish energy at every moment.

“In other words, they are very likely Predators!”

Hearing Professor Wei’s words, many inhuman experts revealed looks of shock.

They knew all too well about Predators. They were not a species of dire beast, but a general term for a class of savage dire beasts. Normally, locust-like dire beasts that viewed all living things as food were known as Predators.

‘They did not distinguish between dire beasts and humans, and would devour any and everything they encountered like locusts. These Predators were very difficult to deal with. Once they appeared, a calamity usually ensued.

“Professor Wei, are you sure that these dire beasts are Predators? But we found that they did not devour all the living things. They even fought alongside other dire beasts.”

Some people also raised objections. According to their understanding in the past, everywhere the Predators went would become practically barren. All living things would be devoured, so other dire beasts would not appear at all.

Professor Wei pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose again and said calmly, “That’s what I found strange. Predators need to replenish a large amount of energy in order to maintain the needs of their bodies. That’s why everywhere they go become practically barren. This is their nature. But these dire

beasts didn’t do it this time. It’s strange indeed.

“Also, there’s a very strange characteristic about the fleshworm dire beast. We’re currently researching it. There’ll probably be news soon. Once there’s news, I’ll inform everyone immediately. However, these fleshworm dire beasts are definitely an entirely new type of dire beasts, and they are very

aggressive. There’s a high possibility that they’re a new kind of Predator. I suggest we relinquish the Dragon Mountain Base as soon as possible and retreat to the homefront before requesting reinforcements.”

With that, Professor Wei stopped talking. Although he had a high academic standing, the 16 inhuman experts were the ones with authority over Dragon Mountain Base.

“Did everyone hear what Professor Wei has said? There’s a high possibility that they’re a new kind of Predator. Considering the strength of our Dragon Mountain Base, it’s very difficult to counter them. Everyone, vote with a show of hands on whether to retreat.”

‘The Chief Commander forwent unnecessary words too and directly began the vote. He was also the first to raise his hand to concur with Professor Wei.

The fleshworm dire beasts might not have taken the initiative to attack the Dragon Mountain Base, but who knew what kind of scheme those fleshworm dire beasts were hatching? Once they became demons, their intelligence would almost be no different from that of humans.

If the fleshworm dire beasts were really Predators, it would undoubtedly be very dangerous for them to continue lingering in the Dragon Mountain Base.

“Concurred.”

“I concur.”

“We can’t keep Dragon Mountain Base anymore.”

With the vote, all 16 inhuman experts agreed to retreat from the Dragon Mountain Base.

“Very well. Then, everyone, prepare to vacate the Dragon Mountain Base. We must retreat from the base within a week.”

Buzz.

Just as Commander Long Duo finished speaking, his communicator vibrated slightly..
