Chapter 171: Xiao Feng Gets Blamed

The Star Battle Formation had left the four individuals weakened, as if they had been drained of their strength.

The formation had depleted ninety percent of their internal energy.

Struggling to move closer, they needed to confirm whether the tiger king had truly perished. But upon approaching, they were shocked to find the tiger king still breathing.

"Roar!"

A deafening roar filled the air as the tiger king, covered in blood that turned into flames, ignited once again.

Swish!

Its claws swiped, striking Qin Hai directly, causing him to fall slowly.

Simultaneously, its tail, like an iron whip, swung fiercely toward Chu Xinger beside Qin Hai.

"Sister, be careful!"

Jiang Hong, alarmed, threw himself in front to shield her.

Smack!

The tail struck Jiang Hong forcefully. After landing, he lay motionless, having breathed his last.

"Beast! I’ll take you down!"

At that moment, an angry shout echoed, and the Chief Lei, controlling an iron street lamp pole with psychic power, ruthlessly impaled the tiger king’s body, pinning it against the building wall.

This time, the tiger king slumped lifelessly.

Witnessing the fallen Qin Hai and Jiang Hong, Chu Xinger and Lin Wanru immediately dropped to their knees.

"Brother! Little brother!"

Chu Xinger wept, crawling toward their lifeless bodies.

"Ah!"

Seeing their lifeless forms, Chu Xinger let out an enraged scream.

At the same time, Chief Lei walked over.

Seeing the deceased, he sighed and consoled, "Accept my condolences. They were heroes, sacrificing themselves for millions!"

At that moment, Chu Xinger coldly interrogated, "Chief Lei, tell me, was this tiger king not part of your intelligence gathering? Did Xiao Feng summon it using spatial abilities?"

"Exactly!"

Chief Lei’s eyes brightened at her words.

"You’re right. It seems so. Our intelligence department had conducted a thorough investigation of Yan Long City for several dozen days. Any powerful mutated beasts were already on our radar. This tiger king obviously doesn’t belong here!"

"It must be Xiao Feng!"

Chief Lei firmly pointed at Xiao Feng as the responsible party.

"Surely, he hasn’t left Yan Long City yet. He’s definitely seeking revenge on us. This tiger king, he definitely summoned it. Xiao Feng is responsible for the deaths of your senior brothers!"

"Xiao Feng!"

Chu Xinger slowly raised her head, her face so dark it seemed to drip water.

"I have irreconcilable differences with you!"

"Accept condolences. When I meet Xiao Feng, I’ll avenge your loss for you!"

Chief Lei tried to console her.

"Rest for now; leave the upcoming battle to us!"

Meanwhile, Bai Zhan had been secretly keeping an eye on Ping Yu and An Xiong.

After leaving the troops, he hadn’t seen the two individuals.

Bai Zhan was perplexed. "Where did these two guys disappear to?"

However, at that moment, Bai Zhan suddenly spotted An Xiong.

Yet An Xiong had undergone a significant transformation.

"Why did this guy suddenly change like this?"

Bai Zhan, puzzled, walked over casually.

"Huh? Captain An, why did you suddenly transform like this?"

Approaching, Bai Zhan feigned confusion.

"Oh! Um, that... "

An Xiong was startled, hastily explaining.

"I was on the brink of a breakthrough, and I just broke through. So my body underwent some slight changes!"

"Oh, really? Congratulations then! Congratulations on Captain An’s successful entry into the rank of seventh-level evolutionists!"

Previously, An Xiong was only a sixth-level evolutionist.

"If there’s a breakthrough, it should be the seventh level."

However, Bai Zhan was unaware that at this moment, An Xiong had already reached the rank of an eighth-level evolutionist.

Though they were excited, they didn’t know that the eighth level was their physical limit. The Zombie King merely used a special energy to completely unlock the potential within them. Henceforth, Ping Yu and An Xiong could only reach the eighth level of evolutionists.

Bai Zhan was quite puzzled by An Xiong’s sudden breakthrough. He remembered clearly that An Xiong had only advanced to a sixth-level evolutionist less than three months ago. Achieving another promotion within such a short time seemed impossible.

This further raised Bai Zhan’s suspicions.

Now, with the continuous advance of the troops, the teams from Qingyun Base and other shelters found it increasingly difficult to make progress. Even advancing one step led them to encounter extremely powerful mutant beasts. What puzzled everyone was the unusually low number of zombies they encountered.

"What’s going on?"

Inside the command post, Chief Lei was still furious.

Observing the information coming from various attack points, Chief Lei was completely dumbfounded. The mutated beasts encountered by each troop, both in quantity and quality, far exceeded their expectations.

"What is happening within the less than twenty-kilometer radius we’re surrounding? Even if we gather all the killed mutant beasts, their numbers could already reach five meters each when piled together. Yet, there are still so many. Can someone tell me what’s going on?"

Chief Lei looked at everyone and questioned.

"I suspect that these mutated beasts are not originally from Yan Long City!"

Chu Xinger stood up and said coldly.

"Seeing that mutated tiger king killing my senior brothers and now having so many mutated beasts continuously pouring out, I suspect it’s directly related to Xiao Feng!"

"Could it be that Xiao Feng used his spatial abilities to summon mutated beasts from elsewhere?"

Someone immediately guessed the reason.

"Exactly! Apart from that, there is no other explanation for such a large number of mutated beasts!"

Chu Xinger said coldly.

"He must be using spatial abilities to teleport mutated beasts from other places. We must send someone in to investigate. I suspect that Xiao Feng is inside!"

Chief Lei nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.

"However, there are so many mutated beasts inside, it’s impossible to get in!"

"Then let’s go from above!"

"Even the sky is impossible, numerous flying-type mutant beasts hover in the sky!"

Immediately, someone vetoed the idea.

"I have a way!"

At this moment, Bai Zhan immediately stood up.

"We can enter through the sewer!"

Bai Zhan also wanted to clarify whether this was related to Xiao Feng or not.

If it wasn’t, then the one casting spells inside must be Ping Yu, as Bai Zhan had been keeping an eye on both Ping Yu and An Xiong. So far, he had only seen An Xiong and hadn’t seen Ping Yu.

"Yeah, the sewers could work!"

Everyone’s eyes lit up instantly.

"However, the sewers are full of mutated rats. If we encounter a rat tide, we might not survive!"

"But besides that, there’s no other way!"

After some consideration, the group decided to send someone in through the sewer.
