At the place where the demonic gateway was located, the tragic scene from the heavy bombardment had recovered quite a bit.

Obviously, the remaining demonic creatures, as well as those who newly crossed over the gateway, had cleaned up the surrounding area.

At the moment, the nearby exotic beasts still had the area surrounded.

It was like there was an irreconcilable grudge between the two sides. Only when one of them was completely destroyed would this war finally come to an end. Originally, their war was something humanity would love to see. However, their arena happened to be on Mercury.

The aircraft didn’t fly directly to the warzone. Instead, it stopped about a hundred kilometers away.

Aboard the plane, Zhang Che and the others were currently listening to the mission assigned to them by the military.

“Remember, the main mission of the twenty-three squads here is to support the main force in killing the stronger exotic beasts and clearing a path to the core area, preventing casualties among the ordinary beastmaster groups.

“There’s three more minutes before we drop off. Please ready yourselves.”

Zhang Che and the others hurriedly packed their own equipment and items, waiting for the cabin door to open.

Those who joined in on this mission were Tier Four beastmasters at the very least, and were the more competent ones of the batch. How could they possibly not have flying beasts?

So, in order to prevent any unwanted accidents during the landing, the aircraft wouldn’t bring them directly to the ground. Instead, they would jump off from a thousand meters in the air and each of them would summon their own flying beast to descend.

In any case, the airplane had switched over to helicopter flying style, hovering in the air. There wouldn’t be any danger in them jumping off from the aircraft.

Three minutes passed by in a flash. On command, the cabin door suddenly opened. As the acting captain, Zhang Che was the first to jump out. With a wave of his hand, a five-colored ray shot out. The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon appeared under him in the nick of time, catching him easily.

Looking up from the ground, the aircraft opened their cabin doors one after another. Beastmasters came jumping out of them rapidly and rode down on their respective flying subdued beasts, arriving at the ice plains on the ground quickly in an organized manner.

The commotion here had finally alarmed the exotic beasts ahead.

Soon, a large group of exotic beasts quickly came towards them, be it by running or flying.

Although the demonic creatures were the arch-enemies of the exotic beasts, the latter weren’t friendly to humanity, either. Otherwise, the conflict between them would have been resolved many years ago.

“Attention everyone, attention everyone! The fighter jets ahead will buy you ten minutes of time. After ten minutes, the convoy will withdraw!”

As the high-efficiency loudspeakers on the transportation aircraft rang out, miniature missiles were launched out of the bellies of the fighters ahead, leaving trails of flames behind them as they flew towards the exotic beast groups that were charging over from the area ahead.

Amid the noise of the explosions, all the descending beastmasters quickly formed into their groups. Afterwards, all kinds of subdued beasts were summoned, forming a massive army of subdued beasts to push forward.

The mid-tier beastmasters gathered from both civilians and the military numbered several thousand, and their subdued beasts totaled tens of thousands. They were closely packed together, seemingly without end in sight.

The twenty-three squads Zhang Che belonged to were among the army, ready to take on the stronger exotic beasts that ordinary beastmasters had trouble dealing with.

The waves of explosions soon ended.

After a round of concentrated bombardment, the remnant exotic beasts were greatly reduced in numbers. However, what was left were all the relatively stronger ones. Every one of them let out furious roars, continuing their charge towards the army of beastmasters on the ground.

Zhang Che looked at all the different exotic beasts ahead with narrowed eyes. He looked back toward the squad members behind him and said, “Everyone, follow me closely. Don’t fall behind!”

Since they already knew Zhang Che’s identity, despite not being familiar with one another, none of them had any doubts about his orders. They acknowledged in unison, “Yes, captain!”

Going forward, who knew how dangerous the battle would be? With such a strong captain leading them, naturally he would be the core of the team, and the squad members would follow closely, to prevent getting surrounded by the powerful exotic beasts.

The distance between the beastmaster army and the exotic beasts grew closer and closer. Everyone could already see the exotic beasts’ appearances vividly.

“Sharp knives teams, attack!” came the command from the wireless earpiece. The twenty-three squads immediately came forth from within the massive army, leading the charge against the exotic beast army.

The exotic beasts that were charging at the front were naturally among the stronger ones.

Those exotic beasts couldn’t be allowed to charge into the much weaker mid-tier beastmasters. They had to be dealt with by Zhang Che and the rest of the twenty-three squads.

“Everyone, maintain the formation, charge with me!”

Zhang Che didn’t summon the Earthen Rock Demon. He only brought out his legend-quality babies. As he gave the order, Zhang Che engaged the few exotic beasts ahead with more extraordinary auras.

Moments earlier, he had taken a rough glance at the horde, and he didn’t discover any epic-quality exotic beasts among them, leaving him much calmer.

Epic-quality exotic beasts naturally wouldn’t appear so easily. Otherwise, with the strength of the demonic creatures, perhaps humanity wouldn’t even have to make a move before they were all driven back.

Seeing Zhang Che charging ahead with a bunch of powerful subdued beasts, the eyes of the fifteen squad members behind him shone. Each of them led their subdued beasts and followed Zhang Che’s charge. They felt very fortunate to be able to follow Zhang Che into action!

This man was a fierce one with epic-quality subdued beasts! They definitely wouldn’t find themselves in overly dangerous situation following him, unless they were careless enough to fall behind. As such, the fifteen squad members were all very mindful of losing track of him.

While running, Zhang Che seemed to sense the nervousness in his squad members. He yelled out, “Everyone, don’t worry! Just leave the powerful exotic beasts to me if we come across them later. You’re mainly responsible for clearing those that slipped away!”

“Yes, captain!” the voices of the fifteen squad members came together, faintly overwhelming the surrounding noise.

It wasn’t only Zhang Che’s squad that had rushed forward. All twenty-three of the sharp knives team were directing a large group of subdued beasts under the leads of their respective captains, stabbing straight at the exotic beast army ahead like twenty-three sharp daggers.

The sharpest knife of them all was Zhang Che’s squad!

Despite having to be mindful of his squad members’ pace and not letting the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon display his speed advantage, Zhang Che was the first to charge into the exotic beast army ahead.

A roaring five-star dark gold-quality huge white bear was the first to run up to Zhang Che. It let out a bellow and spat out a mass of dirty yellow light, blasting it towards Zhang Che.

Obviously it knew that as long as it got rid of Zhang Che, this squad would be severely weakened!

However, the Mutated Giant Ape used his own body to block this elemental attack without a care. A dark and gloomy light flashed on his fur, and he took no damage.

In the next moment, he displayed nimbleness extremely unfitting his large size and suddenly rushed up to the huge bear. He threw a violent straight punch at its face, instantly bursting that fellow’s head. Its corpse fell to the ground, no longer moving.

As an outstanding boxer, the Mutated Giant Ape’s fists were terrifying weapons. Facing exotic beasts than were lower in both level and quality, it would be a clean one-hit-kill.

“Captain’s subdued beasts are so strong!”

His squad members were shaken at the sight. Just this Mutated Giant Ape’s offensive strength was stronger by the strongest subdued beast they had by quite a margin!

“Follow me, protect our flanks!”

Zhang Che didn’t care what they were thinking. His gaze was already set on a six-star legend-quality exotic beast ahead!

It was a gigantic insect-type exotic beast that somewhat resembled a mantis. Its body was between six to seven meters long, its speed excellent. However, it wasn’t charging at the front. Obviously it was an exotic beast that excelled in sneak attacks.

However, Zhang Che didn’t give it any chance to launch a sneak attack. The Mr Horny in his hand… no, the Horned Electric Python suddenly radiated an electrical light, quickly blasting at it.

Crackle! Thunder boomed. The lightning struck the mantis-like exotic beast directly. The flickering snakes of lightning instantly encircled its body.

However, the fellow was a six-star legend-quality exotic beast, after all. Although it suffered the electrical attack, it didn’t receive too heavy of an injury. Its figure flashed, instantly disappearing from where it stood, and turned into a blurry afterimage, drawing an arc in the air and pouncing at Zhang Che at great speed.

However, Zhang Che didn’t even spare a glance at it. He only mumbled to himself with a hint of regret, “A pity they don’t drop beast cards on Mercury. What a huge loss!”

A scarlet light flew out from Zhang Che’s brow. It streaked across the air like lightning, then immediately flew back to his spiritual sea.

The six-star mantis-like exotic beast, on the other hand, suddenly froze in mid-air, a large hole having appeared on its forehead. A gloomy green fluid gushed out from the hole, and its corpse fell to the ground heavily.

” Si… is this the secret weapon captain used to slay the Zhen family’s representative back then? It’s unimaginably powerful, indeed! A legend-quality exotic beast lost its life in an instant, just like that!”

The jaws of the squad members behind him loosened from shock, gaining a whole new perspective of Zhang Che’s strength.

Of course, they didn’t forget Zhang Che’s instructions. Each of them directed their own subdued beasts to slay the weaker exotic beasts at their flanks, allowing Zhang Che to concentrate on killing his way forward.

They even suspected that they weren’t needed. Just their captain alone could slaughter his way around within this exotic beast army.

“What a huge pity. I heard the captain’s girlfriend is the daughter of Bei Du city’s Huang family. Otherwise, I’d surely snatch him for myself!” Little stars twinkled in Li Xin’s eyes, her heart nearly rippling with amorous feelings.

Such a young, handsome, and at the same time, powerful beastmaster was simply the ideal lover in the hearts of every girl!
