NABC Chapter 69 What? A Tier 6 alien race?
Chapter 69 What? A Tier 6 alien race?
He was a young man in his early twenties, tall and slender with delicate features.
His clothes were tattered, and his body was covered in wounds and blood.
But his eyes were bright, his steps were steady, and he walked as if he were strolling in his own backyard.
Ye Feng.
Qin Zhentian looked at him, unsure of what to say for a moment.
Ye Feng also saw Qin Zhentian and was stunned for a moment.
"Guard Qin? What brings you here?"
"I came to find you." Qin Zhentian stepped forward and looked Ye Feng up and down. "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing," Ye Feng smiled. "I'm just a little tired."
"You killed all of these...?"
Ye Feng glanced back at the mutated rat corpses scattered on the ground and nodded.
"Um."
"Hundreds of thousands?"
"More or less."
"He killed the peak fifth-tier Rat King with a single strike?"
"Um."
Qin Zhentian remained silent for a long time.
Then, he reached out and patted Ye Feng on the shoulder.
"You're awesome!"
He turned around and shouted to the three hundred soldiers behind him, "Do you see that? This is Ye Feng! This is our Jiangcheng hero!"
"Today, he single-handedly reclaimed Jiangcheng's nightmare—Fortress No. 1!"
Three hundred soldiers stood at attention and gave Ye Feng a standard military salute.
Ye Feng scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.
"Guard Qin, there's something I need to tell you."
"What is it?"
"There is a sixth-tier Heavenly Demon Envoy in Jiangcheng."
Qin Zhentian's smile froze on his face.
"What did you say?"
"Sixth rank, an envoy of the Heavenly Demon Clan." Ye Feng repeated, "I encountered him at Fortress No. 1 and fought him. He was seriously injured and fled. He is currently at the Li family mansion in Jiangcheng."
Qin Zhentian's face turned deathly pale.
"Are you sure it's sixth-order?"
"Sure."
"You fought with him? And you chased him away?"
"Um."
Qin Zhentian took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
Sixth order.
That was not something he could handle.
In the entire Jiangcheng, the strongest are Cao Keyuan and Director Zhou, both at the peak of the fifth rank.
The difference in strength between a peak fifth-tier opponent and a sixth-tier opponent, though only one tier apart, is enormous.
At the sixth level, one has mastered "Intent," which is a higher level of power that transcends moves and techniques.
A peak fifth-tier opponent is like a three-year-old child in front of an adult—utterly vulnerable.
"Guard Qin?" Ye Feng called out.
Qin Zhentian snapped out of his daze, immediately pulled out his communicator, and dialed Cao Keyuan's number.
"Commander Cao, something terrible has happened."
Jiangcheng, the garrison headquarters.
Cao Keyuan put down the phone, his face terribly gloomy.
Director Zhou sat opposite him, holding a cup of tea, but he didn't drink it.
Old Zhang stood by the window, his hands behind his back, looking at the night outside.
"Sixth rank." Cao Keyuan spoke, his voice calm, but everyone could feel the gravity hidden beneath that calm. "A sixth-rank Heavenly Demon Clan envoy is currently at the Li family in Jiangcheng."
No one speaks.
Ye Feng said that he injured the Heavenly Demon Envoy, but did not kill him.
"Why at the Li family's place in Jiangcheng?" Director Zhou asked.
"I don't know." Cao Keyuan shook his head. "But Ye Feng said that there is a teleportation array of the Heavenly Demon Clan in the Li family's old house. That Heavenly Demon Envoy may have come through that teleportation array."
"The Li family?" Old Zhang turned around. "Which Li family?"
"The Li family, the largest family in Jiangcheng."
Old Zhang frowned.
"The Li family is an old and established family in Jiangcheng. Although they are at odds with the military, they wouldn't betray humanity, would they?"
"I don't know," Cao Keyuan said.
"But it's definitely not a visit; there must be some ulterior motive."
"This..." Elder Zhang took a deep breath, "This is no small matter. If we really let a sixth-level expert from the Heavenly Demon Clan cause trouble in Jiangcheng, not only Jiangcheng, but the entire Great Xia will suffer."
"I know." Cao Keyuan stood up and paced back and forth in his office. "So we must stop it."
"How can we stop them?" Director Zhou put down his teacup. "The opponent is at the sixth level. Can all of us, including Ye Feng, defeat a sixth-level opponent?"
No one can answer this question.
The sixth rank is too powerful.
They were so powerful that they didn't even dare to dream of it.
"No matter what," Cao Keyuan stopped and looked at everyone present, "we can't stand idly by. If we let the Heavenly Demon Clan run rampant in Jiangcheng, Jiangcheng will be finished. The entire Great Xia will suffer."
He picked up the military cap from the table and put it on his head.
"Gather all the experts in Jiangcheng. The Po Jun Squad, Elder Zhang, Elder Zhou, myself, and Ye Feng."
"Let's go to the Li family's house together."
"Gather up and beat up that demon messenger."
Director Zhou stood up and adjusted his glasses.
"A gang up on a sixth-tier opponent? Are you sure?"
"It's uncertain," Cao Keyuan said, "but we have no other choice."
Fortress No. 3
Ye Feng was eating.
He hadn't eaten all day and was starving.
Qin Zhentian sent someone to deliver a large table of dishes to him: braised pork, sweet and sour fish, stir-fried vegetables, egg drop soup, and a large bowl of rice.
Ye Feng devoured the food on the table with gusto, his mouth greasy with oil.
Qin Zhentian sat opposite him, watching him eat, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
This young man killed hundreds of thousands of mutated rats by himself, killed the fifth-tier peak rat king with a single strike, and also injured a sixth-tier Heavenly Demon Envoy.
Now, he sits here, eating heartily, like an ordinary young man who has been starving for a long time.
"Ye Feng," Qin Zhentian said.
"Hmm?" Ye Feng mumbled a response, his mouth full of rice.
"Commander Cao and his men are already on their way."
"Tonight, we're going to the Li family's house."
Aren't you afraid?
Ye Feng swallowed the food in his mouth and looked up at Qin Zhentian.
"What are you afraid of?"
"Because I've never lost."
Qin Zhentian was stunned.
That's a group fight against a sixth-tier expert, not a stroll in the street.
He looked into Ye Feng's eyes, and in those eyes, he saw no fear, no hesitation, only confidence.
A kind of arrogant self-confidence.
But Qin Zhentian didn't think that was arrogance.
Because Ye Feng has the right to be arrogant.
One person defeated a horde of tens of thousands of beasts.
He killed a fifth-tier alien beast with a single strike.
One person wiped out hundreds of thousands of mutated rats in Fortress No. 1.
He severely injured a sixth-tier Heavenly Demon Clan envoy with a single strike.
Any one of these achievements would be enough to make anyone proud for a lifetime.
Ye Feng, on the other hand, took on all of these responsibilities by himself.
Perhaps Ye Feng can truly create another miracle, namely, slaying a sixth-tier opponent with a single strike!
"Okay." Qin Zhentian stood up. "I'll go with you."
Ye Feng glanced at him.
"Guardian Qin, you are at the peak of the fourth rank."
"It's best not to cause any more trouble!"
"Where are the strange beasts near Fortress Three?"
"I want to warm up before the big battle begins!"
