CHAPTER 298: CHAPTER 283: EXOTIC BEAST BATTLEFIELD

The Exotic Beast Battlefield is an even more perilous place than the Domain Seizing Battlefield.

In the depths of the Desolate Land, a group of ferocious and bloodthirsty exotic beasts proliferate. They are born with hard flesh, formidable attack power, and the ability to pursue with void-crossing capabilities, posing a great threat to the alien race.

The exotic beasts feed on the flesh and blood of the alien race warriors. There are always exotic beasts emerging from the barren lands, wreaking havoc in the desolate land, slaughtering and devouring the alien race individuals.

Therefore, to block the exotic beasts, the alien race set up the Exotic Beast Battlefield at the other end.

The battles in the Exotic Beast Battlefield are extremely brutal. Unlike the Wu Meng Warriors, these exotic beasts will devour the blood and flesh of the alien race, chewing them like food, and their strength is formidable. Each mature exotic beast possesses War King level power, and stronger ones even have War Venerable level power.

If the Wu Meng Warriors of the same level aren’t a match for the alien race warriors, then the alien race warriors at the same level are no match for the exotic beasts.

The exotic beasts, with their overwhelmingly powerful abilities, relentlessly hunt the alien race warriors, causing them immense suffering.

Moreover, in the Domain Seizing Battlefield, with a bit of luck, one might kill a few Wu Meng Warriors and obtain one or two Immortal Divine Soldiers, making the mission worthwhile.

However, in the Exotic Beast Battlefield, no matter how much one battles, the only reward is a cold corpse of an exotic beast, and it’s just a part of it after being divided by countless people.

Even if these exotic beast corpses are sold, they aren’t worth much, not even a tenth of a common Immortal Divine Soldier.

The same risk and sacrifice yield vastly different returns, making relocation to the Exotic Beast Battlefield a nightmare for many alien race warriors.

"Captain... why, why do we have to relocate to the Exotic Beast Battlefield!" A team member spoke with a face full of fear.

They had heard countless times about the dangers and difficulties of the Exotic Beast Battlefield, which are even greater than those of the Domain Seizing Battlefield, making many alien race warriors dread it.

"It’s Freid’s decision." The captain’s face was grim. "He is now the captain of our Loren Squad, and he applied to relocate the Loren Squad to the Exotic Beast Battlefield."

The Loren Squad was on the secondary line of the Domain Seizing Battlefield, part of the middle battlefield, and had a grand time due to the existence of a super War Venerable level strongman leading them.

However, since Fledo arrived, he’s been domineering and bossy. Si Sa couldn’t bear it, left the team after a fight, and hasn’t been seen for two hundred years.

Now, he has taken over the captain’s position and applied to relocate the Loren Squad to the Exotic Beast Battlefield.

"How could he, as the captain of Loren Squad, foolishly apply to move to the Exotic Beast Battlefield? Even with a War God level strongman backing him, in the Exotic Beast Battlefield, he’s destined for nine deaths and one life, which is harmful and not beneficial to him!" another team member said, looking grim.

The captain sighed: "It’s precisely because he has a War God level strongman behind him that he’s doing this."

"After we relocate to the Exotic Beast Battlefield, technically, without achieving the required battle merits, we’d be unable to leave. But Fledo has connections; he only needs to have a War God level strongman vouch for him, and he can leave the Exotic Beast Battlefield at any time..." The captain’s fingers were white from clutching, "He just wants to see our Loren Squad become beast fodder and die in despair and fear!"

"Damn him!"

"Fledo, I’m going to kill him!"

Some team members, filled with anger, stood up wanting to find Fledo, but were all stopped by the captain.

"Stop, Fledo is doing this to provoke our anger!" the captain gritted his teeth, "The Exotic Beast Battlefield is not an absolute death trap; as long as we gather enough strongmen, we still have a chance by targeting lone exotic beasts."

The team members sat back down, defeated. Military orders were as unyielding as a mountain. Once issued, they couldn’t disobey, or they’d be guilty of treason and directly erased by the strongmen sent by the Imperial Palace.

To ensure survival, they could only follow orders and head to the Exotic Beast Battlefield.

"Exotic Beast Battlefield?" Hearing this conversation, Wang Xu’s eyes flickered. He wasn’t of the alien race and naturally didn’t know how perilous the alien race battlefield was, but from the team’s grim faces, he could imagine what kind of place the Exotic Beast Battlefield was.

"It seems they’re unwilling to go to the Exotic Beast Battlefield, but for me, it’s a good thing." A change of place was perfect for Wang Xu, who needed to keep a low profile now.

...

The next day, Wang Xu donned the Loren Squad’s standard mechanical war soldier gear, masking his presence, covering his face, and boarded the Space-Time Whale heading to the Exotic Beast Battlefield.

He could sense that recently, many alien race warriors were searching everywhere, even mixed with Wu Meng Warriors, whom Wang Xu immediately recognized.

"I don’t know what agreement the Wu Meng have reached with the alien race that they can put aside prejudices and enter the Desolate Land to search for me," Wang Xu pondered, "Fortunately, the Exotic Beast Battlefield is at the other end of the Desolate Land. As long as I stay in the Exotic Beast Battlefield, they’ll never find me!"

Wang Xu understood the tremendous danger of the Exotic Beast Battlefield. Of a hundred strongmen entering, only one could succeed in earning enough battle merits to leave. The rest either perished in the bellies of exotic beasts or stayed in the war camp, cultivating alone, waiting to rise and then return to slay exotic beasts, aptly dubbed a "warrior’s grave."

Aboard the Space-Time Whale, Wang Xu sat alone in a corner, closed his eyes, and studied the "Cosmic Sensing Chapter" to enhance his Spiritual Consciousness.

Five years later.

"Let’s go," the captain waved his hand, and the members of the Loren Squad left the Space-Time Whale with nervous expressions.

As they approached the war camp, a figure in yellow mechanical war soldier gear shot over from the distance.

"Haha... members of the Loren Squad, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!" A laugh echoed from afar, and all the members of the Loren Squad had dark expressions, their eyes ablaze with rage, wishing they could tear him apart.

The figure laughing, surprisingly, was Fledo.

Fledo was placed on the battlefield for a trial by his family, and to let him get familiar with battlefield rules first, he was specially arranged to join the Loren Squad.

Fledo, being the precious bloodline of his family, had long developed an arrogant and conceited personality, constantly bossing around the team members, being sharp-tongued, and even snatching the spoils of war from the battlefield.

Everyone tolerated in silence, not daring to provoke him, except for the stubborn Si Sa, who angrily cursed him on the spot, and then left the team.

Fledo vented his anger on the other members, first scheming to snatch the captain’s position, then throwing them onto the Exotic Beast Battlefield, while he directly announced his departure from the Loren Squad...

"Is it you? You’ve come back?" Fledo saw Wang Xu, recognized Si Sa’s appearance, and his eyes suddenly narrowed, a vicious glint flashing through his gaze.

Wang Xu remained silent, not because he was deliberately targeting Fledo, but because he didn’t even know who this person was, so to avoid saying the wrong thing and exposing himself, he simply chose to keep quiet.

"Hmph! The same as two hundred years ago, no change at all... huh, no, you’ve actually become a Special Level War Venerable, congratulations, really, congratulations!" Fledo laughed heartily, a trace of cruelty on his face, "But what does becoming a Special Level War Venerable matter? Once you enter the Exotic Beast Battlefield, even a Super War Venerable must die... and you will be no exception!"

The squad members gritted their teeth, clenching their fists. If the war camp didn’t prohibit mutual killing, they would have already rushed over to slaughter this detestable guy.

Wang Xu, on the other hand, appeared indifferent. He couldn’t wait to enter the Exotic Beast Battlefield to avoid pursuit and didn’t bother to deal with Fledo.

"Captain, the members of the Loren Squad have arrived, please give the order." The captain said in a deep voice.

Fledo waved his hand and said with a smile, "No, no, no, you’re mistaken. I’m not the captain of the Loren Squad. I hereby announce that from now on, I officially resign from the position of captain of the Loren Squad. Moreover, due to health reasons, I need to return home to rest for a period of time... during this time, the captain’s duties will be handed over to you."

Just as expected!

The captain was right, Fledo really meant to put them in grave danger.

"Haha... take your time amassing the required battle achievements. I’ll wait outside for your return!" Fledo laughed heartily as he flew away quickly.

"Damn bastard, this jerk, an absolute jerk!"

"If I manage to leave the Exotic Beast Battlefield alive, I will definitely come out to kill him, absolutely!"

At the mention of leaving alive, everyone fell silent.

Indeed, leaving alive had become their only dream now. The battlefield forbids deserters; once discovered, they are directly eliminated. Only by achieving the required battle achievements can they truly leave this place.

Want to leave the Exotic Beast Battlefield alive? The squad members all revealed a bitter smile.

Hard.

Very hard.

Almost... impossible.

"Let’s go, let’s report to the war camp first." The captain spoke, breaking the silence.

......

"These are the Alien Race Warriors fighting the Exotic Beasts? As expected, they are all formidable individuals!"

Wang Xu walked alone in the war camp, and along the way, he saw many Alien Race Warriors exuding killing intent, their expressions icy cold, their eyes sharp as blades—these were all warriors who survived the brutal Exotic Beast wars.

Being able to fight and survive in such fierce wars, each one is an elite among Alien Race Warriors. As long as they leave the Alien Race Battlefield alive, the strength of every one of them will surpass those of the same rank.

Unfortunately, if they can’t achieve the required battle achievements or die in the process, they have to remain here forever.

"The battlefield is merciless." Wang Xu shook his head.

A month later.

Wang Xu was sitting cross-legged in his room, surrounded by eighty-one Black Copper Plates, sometimes transforming into shields, sometimes into swordfish, or dispersing into countless small copper plates, each capable of precise manipulation.

"Si Sa!"

A voice came from the communicator on Wang Xu’s wrist; it was the captain.

"Come to my place, we’ve just made contact with three free squads. We’re planning to team up with them to hunt Exotic Beasts!" (To be continued.
