The violent cold wind rushed past his ears.
Baiyu instinctively turned sideways, activating the Blood Escape Technique instantly, with the rubble shooting past his cheek.
Landed on the flat ground beneath the apartnt building.
He looked at the giant in front of him, standing ten ters tall, its body covered in bulging gray-blue muscles, and couldn’t help but feel a wave of fear.
Luckily, he escaped quickly.
Otherwise, even if he didn’t die, he’d be skinned alive.
The entire building was teetering on the verge of collapse under the giant’s trampling, with terrifying shockwaves spreading all around.
Its body was covered in bizarre symbols that made anyone dizzy just by looking at them.
What made it even more unbearable.
Was the dense and nauseating stench of death it emitted.
"Monster, a monster has appeared at the seventh apartnt building."
"It’s a giant! The giants that were said to be extinct long ago, how can they appear here!"
"Everyone, get out, it’s already crushed several people to death."
Intense screams erupted all around.
Baiyu quickly retreated, soon distancing himself by dozens of ters from the giant. Although there was no spiritual fluctuation or Blood Qi fluctuation from it, just the physical strength alone would be hard for even an Elite Level Martial Artist to withstand.
Moreover.
This was probably an alchemical creature.
A war machine created by combining the sciences of Magic Elixir and Extraordinary Biology, supplented with alchemical knowledge!
"To find such a being at school, clearly, Lin Qingsong didn’t eliminate all the traitors."
"I can’t linger here."
Baiyu’s heart sank, just as he planned to find Jiang Xi and Ning Qian to discuss the next step, a familiar voice sounded from behind him.
"Baiyu!"
Looking back.
He saw Jiang Xi, her body wrapped in a faint aura of blood and nace, standing not far away.
Behind her.
Ning Qian, Gan Yuhan, and Qianren were all present, alongside a middle-aged woman dressed as a master.
It was Ning Qian’s teacher.
"What’s going on with you?"
Seeing everyone stained with blood, Baiyu imdiately felt sothing was wrong.
"We encountered Exotic Beasts on the way. Many parts of the school have already been breached by them. Now the student council and most of the masters are fighting them."
Ning Qian quickly recounted the situation and continued, "We have to leave now. My father just sent a ssage that Zenith City has been completely overrun, even the Undersea Defense Array has been breached, and Exotic Beasts are pouring in!"
Baiyu thought of the worst-case scenario.
But.
The current situation in Zenith City was worse than he imagined.
To think.
This was the county seat of Maple Leaf County.
A region with over a billion people, a gathering of powerful individuals.
Not to ntion countless advanced weapons and terrifying Spiritual Technique Protection Arrays.
The headquarters church of the God of chanics, the Anomaly Bureau, the Bounty Hunter Association...
Combined forces.
The entire Maple Leaf County could be said to be impregnable.
"Where are we heading to?"
Baiyu glanced over.
The middle-aged woman in the master robe spoke, "Haiqing County, the largest county city in the southern East Prosperity Imperial, and the safest place.
The Ning family has already planned to move entirely to Haiqing County.
If you don’t leave now, it will be even harder to get out later.
This is a Corpse Giant, powerful, almost unbeatable under a Grandmaster.
But now most Grandmasters in Wuda have gone out to fend off the Exotic Beasts.
Those remaining can’t free themselves.
This invasion of Zenith City is not just by Exotic Beasts. The Demon Race and Ghost-faced Race, orchestrated by demons, launched a total assault.
The failure of the war at Zenith City’s Shelter has already dood the city to fall. Now it’s just about how much surviving force can retreat."
She was Ning Qian’s aunt and also a master at Celestial South Martial Arts University.
The first-hand information she received was undoubtedly the most accurate and real.
Given that she planned to run directly, it was evident how dire the situation in Zenith City had beco.
And this.
Erupted almost overnight, leaving Zenith City with no ti to react.
Defeat was swift, like a landslide.
"Ning teacher, what about the other cities in Maple Leaf County?"
At this point.
Oda Qianren suddenly asked.
The woman frowned, shaking her head, "When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. If Zenith City is breached, much less other cities. Under the assault of the two foreign races controlled by demons, all of Maple Leaf County will beco a at grinder."
Qianren’s face changed, "I have to go to Maple Leaf Martial Arts University, you guys don’t have to wait for . My sister is still at Maple Leaf Martial Arts University..."
Watching Qianren leave quickly, Ning Qian and Jiang Xi hesitated to speak.
They were all old classmates.
But in this sudden tide of Exotic Beast invasion.
Even with the intention to help others, they lack the strength to do so.
Ning Qian being able to call her aunt and take others along was already a great kindness.
"Are we just leaving like this? Ning teacher, wouldn’t Celestial South Martial Arts University after this..."
Baiyu thought of this, cautiously asking.
"I’m a guest professor at Celestial South Martial Arts University, so leaving isn’t a problem.
And with the current situation in Zenith City, without reinforcents from the East Prosperity Imperial, anyone here is just courting death.
Those who could escape have escaped.
We can’t affect the situation.
None of your current powers are even a match for an Evil Winged Bird; staying alive is the key."
Ning Huanran said in a low tone.
In the distance.
The giant had already been restrained by two powerful Elite Level martial artists, but their defeat was only a matter of ti.
Baiyu sighed, agreeing with her words.
A huge crack had already been made in the protective array behind the giant, reaching into the sky, with countless horned humanoid creatures pouring in.
Demon Race!
Only now did Baiyu realize that the Corpse Giant appeared right next to his residence.
In other words.
His neighbor next door seed to be a traitor!
Baiyu couldn’t believe the person next door was a betrayer, and his mind couldn’t calm.
"Let’s go."
Ning Huanran led the group quickly towards the back section of the school.
Along the way, the school’s protective barrier was already crumbling, with cracks appearing in various places, as Exotic Beasts and foreign races crazily poured in.
After Ning Huanran slashed a few Exotic Beasts blocking the way, she released her aura, leading the group safely to a crack.
Outside.
A huge iron-plated armored vehicle was parked by the roadside, clanging, as the Magic Kinetic Core continuously emitted sounds, with steam billowing from the armored vehicle’s chimney.
Baiyu took a look.
The entire Zenith City was already engulfed in flas of war.
Explosions rose incessantly from all around, with various strange birds circling in the sky, occasionally intercepted by martial artists jousting with Exotic Beasts.
But it was far from enough to deal with the massive number of beasts.
The armored vehicle had ample space.
After boarding, Baiyu discovered many of Ning family’s comrce mbers.
"Go, head straight out of the city.
The main roads have almost been cut off by foreign races, so we must take wild side paths. Although there are Exotic Beasts there, the threat is much smaller."
Ning Huanran said coldly.
Baiyu boarded the vehicle, and just then.
In his pocket.
The "Heart of the Dance," which had remained still, suddenly trembled slightly.
