Chapter 373: Specializing in eating people?
Beep, beep...
The sound of horns in the distance became more and more frequent. During the day, he followed Qi Quan and others and ran forward while releasing his spiritual sense to explore.
The west side of the city was attacked, and some people had already started going out to fight.
Just as Qi Quan and the others said, the beasts that came were targeting humans. They attacked humans in an orderly manner, and it was not a beast tide at all.
When we arrived during the day, a chaotic battlefield had already formed outside the city.
Tigers, bears, lions, and so on, all seemed to be very ferocious animals. There weren't many of them, only about thirty or forty, but they were all ferocious beasts, many of them even able to spew out energy balls.
Looking at the battlefield in the distance, Bai Tian's expression was particularly solemn. It was obvious that the beasts came prepared and they had already formed their battle formations.
Could it be that a war between humans and demons is about to begin?
Oh no, it should be called a war between humans and beasts. It's too early to talk about monsters now. The word "monster" has only been mentioned by Donghuang...
beep……
Before he could think about it, the horn sounded again. However, the target was no longer the one in front, but the south.
During the day, when I looked up, I saw many birds flying towards me. They were all very large and fierce birds. At first glance, I thought they were a team from Yancheng coming to support me.
However, there was no one on the backs of the flock of birds, and they came with great force.
beep...
The horn sounded again, and Bai Tian's head was numb. Under his spiritual sense, he had already sensed that the soil layer on the north side was constantly churning, and the insect swarm was approaching!
Three-line attack!
There's definitely something directing this, but I don't know if it's a ferocious beast or a human...
Almost all the remaining people in Black Sky City came out, formed three teams and started to fight back.
Qi Quan and others were obviously injured, but they still rushed forward.
Bai Tian stared for a while, and the power around him began to slowly gather. A huge golden shadow gradually took shape. Along with it, there were lightning and thunder.
“Haotian, it’s Haotian!”
"Black Sky City is saved, Haotian will live forever, kill!"
There was a constant sound of fighting below, while Bai Tian stepped forward with a stern expression and launched a thousand thunder spells towards the south.
clap clap clap...
Thousands of lightning bolts struck many flying birds, and the flock began to retreat in panic.
At the same time, the beast group in front and the insect group in the south also sensed the danger and began to retreat in an orderly manner.
During the day, I continued to stride through the air, catching up with the herd. I wanted to see what was commanding these beasts...
The herd of beasts had been retreating towards the mountains and forests, and he had been following them during the day. He would occasionally cast a thunder spell on the herd, fearing that they would not run fast enough.
After climbing over a mountain, Bai Tian finally sensed a powerful aura on the opposite hillside.
When daytime approached the hillside, a ball of energy tore through space and flew over.
It’s a very powerful force attack, it feels more powerful than the energy ball spit out!
Bai Tian didn't dodge, but caught the energy ball head-on. However, after he destroyed the energy ball, he found that the beast that released the energy ball had disappeared, and its aura had disappeared in an instant.
Bai Tian was stunned. He had clearly felt a very powerful aura just now, how could it disappear all of a sudden?
Teleport?
This speed is too fast. It actually escaped his spiritual sense tracking?
When I landed on the hillside during the day, I didn't see any trace of the ferocious beast. It really disappeared out of thin air.
It's amazing. Although the power is very strong, it is not so strong that we can't detect its breath during the day. How did it run away?
After a long time, he was unable to capture the breath of the ferocious beast again during the day, so he had to give up and fly back to Black Sky City.
After it got dark, the soil on the hillside that had been explored during the day slowly cracked open, and a khaki tiger slowly jumped out from under the soil.
The tiger wasn't too big, about two meters tall, with a very long tail. Its face looked a bit like a human, with two long fangs...
At night, in the Black Sky City Lord’s Mansion.
The atmosphere had relaxed a lot, and a group of people were telling Bai Tian about their experiences over the past period of time.
It has been almost two months since the beasts started attacking, and they have launched an attack almost every day.
At first, everyone thought it was just a beast tide that would pass. But gradually, they realized something was wrong: the beasts were attacking in an orderly manner, and the order was getting more and more orderly.
The herds were initially quite chaotic, but now they are organized and neat. It feels like the herds are learning from humans.
However, the number of beasts is decreasing. It is not known whether the weak beasts were eaten or for some other reason. The ones attacking now are all very ferocious.
As Qi Quan had said before, the beasts were coming for humans, and they would eat whatever they saw. However, they didn't eat their own kind, they just took away their corpses.
This made Bai Tian feel more and more that something was wrong. What on earth was behind the scenes commanding the herd of beasts, and was actually able to continue learning?
Could it be a monster?
It can control thousands of beasts, including birds, beasts and insects. If it is really a monster, then it is a bit scary.
The more troublesome thing right now is that the number of people left in Black Sky City is dwindling. If another large-scale beast attack occurs, Black Sky City will be completely destroyed.
City Lord Dong Zhenda sighed bitterly, "Haotian, we are so ashamed of our ancestors. Since the founding of Black Sky City, we have experienced countless attacks, but never such a tragic situation. Even the Battle of Banquan was not as tragic as this..."
Before he could say anything more, Bai Tian shook his head and said, "There's no point in talking about this now. The most important thing right now is to hold on. The reinforcements won't be coming soon, so we have to hold on for the time being."
"Also, I need to find out what's driving the beasts to attack, and why they insist on eating humans. Try to stay inside the city these days, and if necessary, set fire to the outside of the city for defense."
Dong Zhenda nodded gravely. "We've all considered this. The beasts usually attack at dusk, very regularly. After dark, they all leave."
"Normally, they attack for a maximum of one hour, and then retreat regardless of success or failure."
Bai Tian frowned and said, "You say success or failure, how do you define success?"
"That...we don't know either." Dong Zhenda sounded slightly distressed. "We know that the beasts have been attacking the city, but we still can't find out what their purpose is."
"That's what's strange. Many teams have left Black Sky City, but they've never been attacked by beasts. Of course, it could also be because those who left headed towards Yan City, avoiding the direction of the beasts. But the beasts never bypassed Black Sky City and attacked head-on."
This is strange, why is it happening?
Is there something in the city that interests the herd?
Bang, bang...
Just as he was thinking, a low, muffled sound came from the sky. Bai Tian's mind trembled, and he released his spiritual consciousness.
Soon, he stood up with a slightly changed expression: "Don't come near here."
Before he finished speaking, the man had already flown out.
He had already sensed that Bai Ze was fighting some ferocious beast...
