Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 304: Chapter 94 Protector God_1

The few remaining soldiers watched this scene, their sense of despair deepening!

Especially the leader, a Level 4 professionist, whose eyes were spewing regret and anger. He wildly swung the battle saber in his hand, instantly crushing a few Bipedal Lizards that surrounded him!

”Run fast... run fast!”

This professionist roared, attempting to fight his way out!

Unfortunately, surrounded by nearly a thousand Bipedal Lizards, where could he possibly run?

Countless slippery tongues rapidly entwined around him. Even though their individual strength wasn’t great, their numbers were overwhelming! Nearly a thousand low-level Bipedal Lizards kept this Level 4 professionist bogged down!

The reason this squad of soldiers was surrounded was straightforward.

With more and more warriors from the military joining the battle, the overall battle situation had largely shifted in the military’s favor. This had led the army’s front line to keep advancing, even pushing the lower-level Demon Fiends to within a 300-kilometer radius around Demon City!

All the military’s warriors had to face the awkward problem of there being too many of them and not enough enemies.

The leader of this squad—the Level 4 professionist—had ventured deep into the battleground for points. As a result, he was swarmed by the Bipedal Lizards.

Watching the battle situation deteriorate, the Level 4 squad leader fought valiantly but could only watch as his fellow warriors were swallowed one by one, then transformed into new Bipedal Lizards.

It’s over...

Just as the Level 4 professionist was sinking into despair, the head of a Peak Third-level Bipedal Lizard right in front of him suddenly shattered, and then a mighty, furious beast roar echoed across the sky.

”Star, kill them.”

A detached voice came from mid-air, and then, the few remaining soldiers saw a burst of flame.

...

”Didn’t they say not to go too deep?”

Wen Yu asked the Level 4 professionist standing beside him, all while watching Star and Cyclops continue to pick up magic crystals from the ground.

”There were too many people behind...”

”So, you were just being greedy, right?”

”Yes, sir!”

Wen Yu nodded at the answer and said directly, ”Go gather this flesh first, then take your men and return to the outpost. Report this to your superior yourself; accept whatever punishment is due.”

”Yes, sir!”

This squad’s captain answered loudly.

Once Wen Yu saw that Star and Cyclops had finished tidying up, he immediately headed further forward.

...

”Captain, is he our newly promoted Lord God of War? That dragon is so strong!”

Only after Wen Yu’s figure disappeared did these military warriors lower their saluting right hands. One young soldier then quietly asked.

The captain nodded slightly, then paused for a moment before speaking.

”Just call him War God in private. According to No. 6, this man is even stronger than our Lord God of War! Unfortunately, he isn’t part of our military. Commander Lin wanted to bestow the title of War God upon him, but he refused...”

At this, the soldier looked perplexed.

That was the title of War God, signifying the peak military power of Cathay, even of the entire Human Race! Yet this man had just rejected it!

”Never mind whether he’s called War God or not; that man saved our lives. I think the title Protector God is more suitable. You might not know this, but word of that title has already spread privately throughout the entire Eastern War Zone! He’s saved so many lives.”

A soldier holding a sniper rifle at the rear spoke with passion, his eyes glittering with a strange light, like a devoted fan of Wen Yu.

The captain nodded slightly.

”Actually, I’ve been saved by him twice before. Counting this time, it’s the third... I just wonder if I’ll be this lucky again.”

A deep sigh escaped the captain. The heavy emotion in his words left his squadmates speechless.

It was simply that, although the death rate on the military’s side wasn’t high, it still reached about 20 percent.

On this battlefield, only one thing governed the life and death of ordinary soldiers: luck.

”Let’s go. Looks like this time, I’m going to join the Death Squad...”

...

Meanwhile, Wen Yu was wandering near the front of Demon City.

The Bipedal Lizards in Demon City continued to emerge incessantly. Unfortunately, lacking any high-end combat power among them, they posed almost no threat to Wen Yu.

Looking at the gradually fading Fog of War before him, Wen Yu squinted his eyes, wondering about something.

”What do you think they are doing in this fog?”

Hearing Wen Yu’s question, Cyclops, cradled in his arms, immediately went ’ARF! ARF!’

”I guess they’re having babies inside...” he then conveyed.

Wen Yu responded to Cyclops with a smack on his head.

”Can’t see clearly, don’t know.”

Star’s answer was simple and straightforward.

”What do you think?”

Wen Yu turned his head slightly to ask the Soul Beast beside him.

At this point, the Soul Beast’s physical fitness had risen to 465 points, all thanks to darkness attribute magic crystals. Wen Yu still had plenty of points on hand. When he next returned to the outpost, he could upgrade the Soul Beast’s physical fitness to Peak Level 4.

And as the Soul Beast’s physical fitness improved, its thinking ability also grew stronger.

”Couldn’t they be digging tunnels in there... like a direct passage to the outpost...?”

Undeniably, the Soul Beast’s suggestion seemed the most plausible!

But Wen Yu shook his head.

”Digging directly to the outpost is impossible. The military has deployed numerous vibration detectors along the front line. The vibrations from digging can’t evade mechanical detection. Digging directly to the front lines might be possible, but the military already has countermeasures for that.”

Hearing Wen Yu’s explanation, the Soul Beast immediately fell silent.

”By the way, Boss, Mimi told me the other day that the soldiers on this battlefield call you Protector God... So, should I be called Protector Divine Beast?”

The Soul Beast’s clear and youthful voice resonated directly in Wen Yu’s mind.

Mimi was the name of Xiao Xue’s Soul Beast.

After Xiao Xue advanced to Level 4, her Soul Beast’s cognitive abilities had also greatly improved. Soul Beasts shared a special connection, allowing them to communicate directly with each other when in close proximity.

Upon hearing the Soul Beast’s words, Wen Yu just shook his head.

However, Star and Cyclops both chimed in excitedly.

”Then I’m the Protector Dragon...”

”From now on, please call me Protector Dog... Brother!”

The noisy chatter made Wen Yu’s expression darken slightly.

You two and your ridiculous names, that’s quite enough...
