The Black Guardian was furious. He picked up the whistle and blew it again.
Upon hearing this, Su Ying lashed out viciously at the man in black with the iron chain in her hand, then took out the conch and blew it.
Compared to the Black Guardian’s whistling sound, the sound from Su Ying’s conch was louder and more penetrating. All the ferocious beasts guarding outside the Tiger Base listened to the two intertwining sounds and their bodies could only twitch repeatedly.
Xiao Jin thrust the spear in his hand with overwhelming force, piercing into the Black Guardian’s shoulder with a silent murderous intent.
The Black Guardian cried out in pain and leaped away in a belated attempt to dodge.
The moment the spear separated from his flesh, a chunk of flesh was torn out.
Pfft! The Black Guardian spat out a mouthful of blood. He knew that he had met a powerful opponent this time. He did not continue fighting and turned around to flee.
However, Xiao Jin did not intend to let him off so easily. He sprinted forward and blocked the Black Guardian’s path straightaway.
“The Tiger Base is not a place where you can come and go as you please.”
The spear in Xiao Jin’s hand spun rapidly in his hand. The sharp tip of the spear whipped out a chilly wind that made people almost unable to open their eyes.
The Black Guardian knew that he was no match for Xiao Jin. He grabbed a handful of black foam and threw it on the ground. Boom! A thick black smoke instantly spread out and blocked Xiao Jin’s vision.
Xiao Jin quickly closed his eyes but the spear in his hand paused and suddenly shot out.
“Urgh!”
The Black Guardian, who was in the midst of fleeing, widened his two eyes in shock as if he could not believe that his life had ended just like that.
He stared blankly at the spear that had pierced through his chest, and his body fell straight to the ground.
At this moment, the black smoke dispersed, and Xiao Jin’s handsome face full of valiant vigor gradually came into view in the whirling cold wind.
He walked to the place where the Black Guardian had fallen. The spear had already jabbed into the ground, but there was only a pool of blood left on the ground. Even his clothes had melted.
Xiao Jin’s dark eyes turned ominous. When he turned around and returned to the courtyard, he discovered that the men in black were all lying on the ground and no longer breathing. The few that had escaped were quickly caught and dealt with by Su Ying.
“You stay here. I’ll go outside the base camp gate to take a look.”
Su Ying made Xiao Jin stay behind to deal with the aftermath while she headed to the base camp gate. She wanted to see just how many wild beasts these people had brought over.
As Su Ying walked through the gate, she was met with a sea of eyes that glowed green in the darkness. At a glance, she couldn’t see the end of this sea!
At the very front were tigers and lions with huge bodies. There were even elephants. No wonder the occupants in the Azure Dragon Base were almost torn to shreds by them.
Su Ying took out the conch and blew it slowly.
Those wild beasts became even calmer after hearing the sound from the conch. They were so quiet that they resembled rabbits.
“Good heavens. I’ve never seen so many wild beasts in my life.”
“Me… me too. It’s really… too… too scary.”
Su Ying slowly retreated to the big gate. The conch’s sound changed and it became increasingly louder. The ferocious beasts all stood up after hearing it. Following that, they split up and left the Tiger Base in different directions.
The people standing on the gate wall were shocked. These monsters left just like that? They were still thinking that there would be a fierce battle coming up!
Su Ying only put the conch down when she could no longer smell the scent of the wild beasts.
“Mistress, what… what in heavens is going on?”
Su Ying looked at the conch in her hand. She didn’t understand what the other party was using to control and train the wild beasts. Why would the tiger have such a specific change in emotion when it heard the whistle?
Later, she suddenly thought of this conch. This conch could transmit the human consciousness to the wild beasts through different sound waves created by the frequency changes when blowing on the conch, thereby making the wild beasts obedient.
She had never used this thing before. She had found it when she was looting the enemy’s supplies. She had thought it was fun and put it in her interspatial store. It never occurred to her that it would come in handy.
If the Sky Alpha Cult’s ultimate weapons were those wild beasts, with the conch in her hand, those beasts no longer possessed their powerful killing ability.
“I simply told them to go back to where they came from.”
Su Ying put away the conch and returned to the Tiger Base. She found that the people were all cleaning the floor with water. “What are you guys doing?”
She looked at the darkened bloodstains on the ground in bafflement. “Have you cleaned up the corpses?”
“All the corpses have disintegrated into bloody fluid,” Xiao Jin said.
“What?”
Su Ying looked at the bloody fluid on the ground. Initially, she thought they were washing away the bloodstains from the battle. To her surprise, they were clearing the corpses which had turned into fluid.
Xiao Jin had originally captured two of them alive, but they had killed themselves the moment they were caught. They did not give him a chance to interrogate them at all.
“Those people have obviously undergone strict training.” Other than disciplined troops, she had never seen a team that could walk in such a synchronized manner when they were moving forward.
The victory of the first battle greatly increased the morale of the Tiger Base.
However, Xiao Jin and Su Ying knew that their opponents weren’t as weak as they appeared. After all, the base camp had made thorough preparations to catch their opponents off guard. If their opponents had come prepared, they wouldn’t have been so easy to deal with.
Deep in the mountains of the northern wilderness, there was a large fortress-like building that stood on the mountainside. At the foot of the mountain was a stone wall that towered above the surroundings. People from the outside could not really see what was going on inside.
The wild beasts that left the Tiger Base came to the stone wall that towered above the surroundings.
Roar! The tiger leading the horde roared. Suddenly, a crack appeared on the stone wall. The crack gradually widened until an entrance a few meters long and equally high appeared.
The wild beasts walked in slowly but orderly.
After all the wild beasts had gone in, a man in black suddenly walked out from the stone wall. He came to the area outside the wall and saw that the area was empty. With a puzzled demeanor, he turned around and walked back in.
Not long after that, the crack in the stone wall slowly closed down, and the earlier entrance soon disappeared.
After entering through the stone wall, the inside was like a mountainous forest. The wild beasts came to the forest and sat down casually to rest. They did not exhibit any inclination to attack at all.
The man in black came to the beasts and checked them one by one, touching the dried blood on their bodies.
These dried bloodstains already felt very hard, so these stains could not have been smeared last night.
The man in black became even more baffled. After making sure that there were no new bloodstains on the wild beasts, he turned around and left the forest. He came to a stone stairs and went straight up the stone stairs. He walked to the top of the stone wall and stood there. He took out the binoculars to look at the situation outside, but he could not locate anyone at all.
Neither the Black Guardian nor the team he led last night had returned. This knowledge made the man frown. Then, he turned around and descended from the stone wall. He blew the whistle on his body. Before long, a tiger gamboled over.
After the man in black mounted the tiger, he quickly rode the tiger toward the most majestic building on the mountainside..
