There were dozens of them, all people who had luckily survived last night.
These people had a common trait, their spirits were much stronger than ordinary people, resisting the eerie invasion, and not turning into zombies.
"Teacher, where are we heading now?"
Xu Kai carried a large machete on his shoulder and asked, slightly tilting his head. His injuries were almost healed thanks to the treatnt from the Totem Fragnt.
Ge Yunhua’s injuries were also almost healed, except for the arm that was cut off and not recovered, which Su Changxing could do nothing about.
Su Changxing squinted his eyes slightly, looking ahead and said, "Anxi, there are quite a few survivors there, and it’s not under the Wizards’ surveillance."
Xu Kai pondered, "It’s not far from here, haven’t those soldiers caused trouble?"
It was only a day’s journey from their previous location.
Su Changxing shook his head and said, "No, they’re solely focused on occupying Donglin City, not caring about the surrounding areas... they likely have other deeper purposes."
He thought of the massive influx of soldiers migrating from West Bridge City to Donglin City, and the anomalies in the sky, including chains descending from the Black Fog World.
······
By evening, they arrived at Anxi. The number of monsters in the vicinity seed to have significantly decreased, likely due to ongoing clearing.
Xu Kai swiftly slashed the incoming insects resembling locusts with blades on their chests, slicing them from the abdon.
His strength had markedly increased, especially in terms of power. These insects with hard shells couldn’t withstand a single slash from him.
At this mont, over twenty people ca towards them from the other end of the street, holding weapons. They were likely survivors here.
Each of them appeared notably strong, evidently strengthened, especially the one at the front, whose body was incredibly powerful, not an Extraordinary, but not far off.
They were likely strengthened more than six tis.
Su Changxing mumbled, thinking about how special reinforcents could be granted during missions, allowing others to surpass the six-ti limitation.
Such extensive reinforcents could make these non-Extraordinary players physically stronger than ordinary Extraordinary individuals.
He was once in such a situation. Even now, ordinary reinforcents had little effect on his body.
The leading person wore a cowboy hat, leather jacket, and pants, a classic cowboy look, carrying an old-fashioned firearm, approached Xu Kai, and said:
"You don’t want those things on the ground? What a waste."
Xu Kai looked puzzled and said, "What would we want the corpses of these insects for? Can you eat them? Are you really short on food?"
The man paused, then smiled broadly and said, "Seems like you don’t know. You’re from the Donglin City side, right... I’m He Dongchu, the captain of the exploration team."
Xu Kai nodded, sighed, and said, "Yes, we originally had quite a few people, now only this many are left. We should have co earlier."
"Dead people, only the living count as people. There’s been no one coming from that side these days; you’re lucky. The Black Fog over Donglin City is thick, and the monsters are more troubleso. Ordinary people can’t make it through."
He Dongchu chuckled, possibly having other intentions, scrutinized Su Changxing and others, and then said:
"You seem quite skilled, at least a B-level. Are you interested in joining us? The others can too; you’ll need so support here, or it would be tough."
The dead insects on the ground were not as simple as they appeared, called "Moya Locusts," characterized by their hard shells, which were difficult for ordinary firearms to penetrate, quite a nuisance.
But Xu Kai killed them easily with a blade, demonstrating his extraordinariness.
Even non-Extraordinary humans have varying degrees of combat abilities, and Xu Kai belonged to the more formidable, at least at a B-level.
"B-level? What’s B-level?" Xu Kai appeared even more puzzled, completely unaware of what the other was talking about.
He Dongchu paused for a mont, then said, "Huh? Are you a player?"
Xu Kai shook his head, "No."
He Dongchu glanced at Su Changxing behind him, feeling it was strange that Xu Kai wasn’t a player yet still possessed such strength, then explained:
"B-level refers to those not as strong as Tier Nine Extraordinaries but approaching that level. With good luck, they can contend against them. There are A-level existences on the forum, but I’ve never seen one."
Xu Kai was sowhat surprised and said, "Non-Extraordinaries can contend against Extraordinaries, really? How is this grading system established?"
He Dongchu didn’t mind explaining patiently, "It seems to co from previous Superpower Users. It’s said that an A-level Superpower User can contend with a Tier Nine Extraordinary, and there’s supposedly an S-level above that."
"I see." Xu Kai nodded, indicating he understood.
Due to Su Changxing’s influence, he always felt that Extraordinaries were insurmountable, but He Dongchu’s explanation gave him so clarity.
He Dongchu asked again, "So, are you interested in joining us? Our guild does have Extraordinary beings."
Xu Kai didn’t respond but turned his head to look at Su Changxing behind him, with an inquiring expression.
Su Changxing withdrew his assessing gaze and smiled, saying, "No hurry, let’s go inside and take a look first."
