Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 181: Chapter 181 I’m Here

Zhou Qiang shouted,

”What do we do, Xia Luo?”

”Fight to the death, there’s no other way. Delay them, wait for Yang Xiao’s cavalry to arrive.”

Bang!

Xia Luo was punched by Xie Jun and sent flying over ten meters.

Xia Luo quickly took out a Small Blood Pill and popped it into his mouth.

”Retreat to the transmission array on the sports field.”

Xia Luo yelled loudly, leading everyone to flee in panic.

The entrance to the valley was about 3 kilometers away from Xianan University’s sports field.

In the first battle, both sides suffered over a hundred casualties.

With a wave of his hand, Xie Jun commanded:

”Advance, surround their sports field.”

Thus, Du Tian, Feng Lei, Zhou Hua and others led more than a thousand people grandly into Xianan University.

Xia Luo, with the remaining six to seven hundred people, retreated to defend the sports field.

”Zhou Qiang, why haven’t the people from Kongming Academy arrived yet?”

”I don’t know either.”

”Sigh, let’s leave it to fate.”

The six to seven hundred people formed a large circle around the transmission array, all roaring fiercely, resolved to fight to the death rather than submit.

After the incident of the Snow Wolf siege on Xianan University, everyone had become much more accepting of life and death in this post-apocalyptic world.

Maybe alive today, dead tomorrow.

Death is normal, and life is a stroke of luck.

Xia Luo urged the injured to quickly take Small Blood Pills to prepare for the next battle.

”Brothers, sisters, are you afraid to die?”

”No!”

Everyone shouted in unison.

But suddenly, a girl began to cry out:

”I’m afraid!”

Buzz!

The scene fell into silence.

The girl was a Bird Beast Soul user, who had watched her close sister get killed by an enemy’s arrow during the aerial battle.

The girl sobbed, wiping her tears with her hand:

”I was just a sophomore, how did my peaceful life suddenly enter the apocalypse? There are so many things in the world I haven’t tried, I haven’t even been in love, I... I can’t accept dying like this!”

Whimpering...

The girl finished speaking and began to weep softly again.

Facing death, no one is truly fearless.

Xia Luo wiped the blood from his face and walked over to the girl.

”What’s your name?”

”My surname is Duan, Duan Yanran.”

Xia Luo nodded, reaching out and grabbing the girl’s hand.

The girl’s body shook as if electrified and she stared at Xia Luo, lost in thought.

Before the apocalypse, Xia Luo was a known figure at Xianan University, the prince in many girls’ dreams. She never imagined she might have such a close encounter with Xia Luo.

Xia Luo smiled slightly and said:

”Perhaps we’ll all die, but compared to those teachers, classmates, and friends who left us first, we are already lucky.”

Xia Luo drew his longsword from his waist and shouted loudly:

”For survival, for dignity, for the future, fight till the end!”

Everyone shouted excitedly together:

”For survival, for dignity, for the future, fight till the end!”

....

”Heh, is there any point in persisting like this?”

Xie Jun, with over a thousand men, slowly approached from a distance, with those in the front carrying shields, archers, Elemental Mages, and Close Combat Beast Souls all ready to launch an assault on the people of Xianan University.

Above their battalion, nearly three hundred birds circled.

Xie Jun buzzed, a Defensive Light Shield sprang to life, and he advanced a few steps forward.

”Bring me the manager of Xianan University.”

After hearing this, Xia Luo also buzzed, a Defensive Light Shield sprang to life, and he stepped out a few paces from the ranks.

”My name is Xia Luo, and I am the manager of Xianan University.”

Xie Jun stared at Xia Luo for several seconds.

Xie Jun was 22, and Xia Luo was 21—their ages were close.

Suddenly, Xie Jun became curious about the Xia Luo in front of him. This guy had initially forced Du Tian and his team of over a hundred to lay down their weapons, take off their Snow Wolf Armor, and flee in disarray, and the second time, he had managed to ambush his team, fortunately, he was vigilant, or else if they all fell into the ambush, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Du Tian’s squad, consisting of two hundred, fell into an ambush and in just a few minutes, dozens were wounded.

Xie Jun admired Xia Luo’s decisiveness, efficiency, and ruthlessness and felt an urge to recruit him.

”Xia Luo, well done, kid. You’ve killed so many of my brothers, how do you propose we settle this?”

”What’s there to settle? It’s the apocalypse now; whoever has the stronger fist makes the rules.”

”Kid, I’m giving you a chance. If you submit to me, I’ll overlook today’s incident.”

”Brother Jun?”

Du Tian yelled out from the side.

Xie Jun shot a glance at Du Tian, who immediately shut up.

Xia Luo snorted disdainfully:

”Submit? How would I submit?”

”It’s simple. From now on, the personnel and resources of Xianan University must follow my command, under my unified leadership, and a third of the Genetic Fragments obtained from killing Mutated Creatures must be surrendered.”

”Heh, if we’re under your direction, then what’s the difference between us and puppets?”

Zhou Hua from the side said:

”Kid, don’t bite the hand that feeds you. This is Brother Jun giving you a chance to live, otherwise...”

”Otherwise, what?”

Xia Luo held his Longsword, his eyes coldly fixed on Zhou Hua.

”Otherwise, I wouldn’t mind flattening Xianan University to the ground!”

Xie Jun said indifferently.

”Fine, if you’ve got the ability, just come at us. I’ll take a few of you down with me even if I’m dying.”

Zhou Qiang, unwilling to show weakness, waved his Longsword and shouted loudly.

Feng Lei stepped close to Xie Jun and whispered a few words in his ear, and upon hearing them, Xie Jun smiled faintly, saying:

”You’re gathering around the Transmission Array, waiting for reinforcements, aren’t you?”

”What if we are?”

”Haha, I would like to see who would dare to come to your rescue today? Whoever it is, I’ll make sure they won’t return.”

”I’m here!”

A loud roar came from the distance.

Everyone was stunned and turned their heads in unison to look, only to see Yang Xiao and others approaching from afar.

Yang Xiao, Long Yongjun, Chen Fei, Chen Lu, Feifei, and Dai Yun had finally made it down the mountain in one breath, running over breathlessly.

”Xi, Xi, Xiao Luo, I, I, I’m here.”

Everyone from Xianan University was all too familiar with Yang Xiao, and his arrival instantly bolstered everyone’s spirit, their morale soaring.

But in the eyes of Xie Jun and his men, how much difference could the six people including Yang Xiao make? Weren’t they just sending themselves to death?

Du Tian rolled his eyes and said to Yang Xiao:

”Hey, hey, who are you? Are you here to joke around? Are you here for laughs?”

Yang Xiao turned back, glanced at Du Tian, and said indifferently:

”Who are you? Did you eat garlic this morning? Why is your breath so foul?”

Du Tian retorted angrily,

”I, I’m your grandpa!”

Before the word ”grandpa” could leave his mouth, Yang Xiao pointed a finger, and a huge conical spike burst from the ground, flipping Du Tian and dozens of others straight into mid-air.
