Chapter 786: A Forsaken City

The few ancient warriors rushed out quickly and had the message delivered . However, Qin Feng felt that external help would be hard to come by .

This was a unique circumstance unlike anything seen before .

‘No wonder the Fettering Land was forsaken so easily and turned into a forbidden area . ’

The place was too dangerous and the ultra beasts here were too ferocious . Unequipped humans had little chance in such a treacherous land .

Worse still, the strength of an ability user was greatly slashed here, making survival even direr .

Qin Feng started the car . He gave up on spreading the repellent powder and drove straight back to the city gate .

‘The Huaxia Alliance would probably give up on Chungluo City after this . ’

Qin Feng knew he had most probably guessed it right . That was exactly what happened in his previous life, as his memory recalled .

***

In the meantime, there was indeed a heated debate on the outside world .

Among those that had come out, Jiang Haolin was perhaps the one with the most urgency . Together with a few other B-tiers, they had reported the latest situation to Regent Shang . Shang Han had immediately called for help but the response was scarce so far .

“The overlapping between different dimensions this time is extremely peculiar . How are we supposed to fight in there when the alien dimension would disable consciousness and internal strength?”

“That’s right . Everyone had seen what happened in there just now . We lost two valuable ancient warriors to a group of C-tier cats!”

“Honestly, there are not many ancient warriors that have B-tier parallel training in the entire Huaxia . Moreover, what if the next group of monsters were B-tier? Even B-tier ancient warriors wouldn’t survive then . ”

Everyone was giving their opinions, which are mostly demoralizing .

They tried to highlight how difficult the situation was . But the reality was, nobody wanted to get dragged into trouble .

Jiang Haolin grew even more anxious . Chungluo City was not their home, so what happened to it was not their concern .

“There are still seven B-tier ability users inside the city . They are the elites of the Huaxia Alliance . We shouldn’t give up on them just like that!” Jiang Haolin pleaded . “Besides, we have General Qin to count on . With some extra help, we can definitely save everyone!”

These B-tiers did not recognize Qin Feng earlier . After they learned of his identity, one of them immediately said, “How many people are like Qin Feng in Huaxia? He is a generational prodigy . In my opinion, we shouldn’t let Qin Feng take this much risk . He has the potential to grow into an S-tier aptitude user in the future . ”

“That’s right . It would be truly a great loss to Huaxia if anything happens to General Qin!”

These people commented insensitively .

They would not be this “rational” if the same thing were to happen to their city instead of Chungluo .

Jiang Haolin was infuriated listening to them . However, he did not dare to talk back because this had gone out of his hand as well .

One of the B-tiers, who sympathized with the concerned Jiang Haolin, suggested, “Our regent has done all she could . The emergency order has been sent out as well . No matter what, this is not an easy request but a life and death matter . I think you should contact the old duke of Chungluo . If the reward is lucrative enough, it might attract some help . Moreover, the old duke might have enough connections to bring in an ancient warrior with A-tier parallel training . ”

Jiang Haolin was inspired by the idea . He immediately contacted the duke, Liu Chong .

Liu Chong was very old . He was currently aliased under an S-tier . He had not returned to Chungluo City for a long time .

Most of the residents in Chungluo had never seen him, nor did they know such a figure existed as their duke .

Jiang Haolin received Liu Chong’s reply only half an hour later .

“That’s too much trouble . Just abandon the city then . ”

Jiang Haolin was stunned .

From Liu Chong’s perspective, this was a reasonable decision . Although he was the duke of the city, he had not been staying here for a long, long time . He had no sentiment for the city . It was developed by his subordinates without his involvement . Thus, he could not care less if anything happened to it . With his status, he could easily recruit other B-tiers and re-establish another city .

As for the six hundred thousand civilians inside Chungluo City, that was even less of a concern to the aloof duke .

The beginning of the A . C Calendar was not very different from an apocalypse . Human life was the least valuable thing in this era . In certain deprived areas, cannibalism was a common occurrence .

It was just one city and its people . This happened every year when the beast wave arrived .

Nobody would have issues with Liu Chong’s decision .

But Jiang Haolin could not accept it . His wife was still inside the city . His comrades that had fought alongside him for seven to eight years were still struggling there too . He could not believe that the duke had given up on them just like this .

Instantly, Jiang Haolin resented Liu Chong for being such an irresponsible leader .

This was when a commotion erupted . Jiang Haolin immediately looked up .

From within the thin silver fog, an opening appeared and a convoy drove right out of the gate . There were at least four to five hundred people hurrying out under Qin Feng’s lead . They exited the city safely with the help of the repellent powder .

After escorting the people out of the city, Qin Feng did not stay and disappeared back into the fog immediately .

Jiang Haolin’s eyes slowly changed . He was touched and really admired Qin Feng’s action . In his mind, Jiang Haolin made a decision quietly .

‘I heard that General Qin already has a lot of B-tier aptitude users working for him . He is also capable of hunting A-tiers . That’s not very different from an A-tier aptitude user . Even Liu Chong can’t be compared to him . No matter what, I should try to join the Fengli Organization after this . The only concern is that they probably don’t need a subpar veteran like me . ’

Qin Feng had no idea that his kind act would have moved the heart of an experienced B-tier ability user . He was still busy rescuing people .

The city was in chaos . That did not prevent the people living at the edge of the city from noticing Qin Feng’s car . Qin Feng gathered them and had them take the worn-out battle vehicle . When there were not enough seats, the citizens simply ran behind the convoy .

Their lives were in jeopardy now . They would grab on any straw that came into sight .

These people would be safe once out of the city .

Qin Feng drove back and forth several times . He escorted out around five hundred citizens each time . Dusk came when Qin Feng had only saved around two to three thousand people .

This was the first time Qin Feng felt a little despair after he was reborn .

However, he did not stop moving . Once again, Qin Feng returned courageously into Chungluo City .

Night had finally fallen . Inside the makeshift command center, it was getting even harder to monitor the current situation .

“We can’t see the situation clearly now . ”

“Wait for a while more . General Qin has brought along a flare with him . He would set it off once he is out again . ”

“It’s dark now . The flare would attract ultra beasts!”

“Any ancient warrior here yet?”

“Nah! Everyone who has heard the call either claimed that they are away or in the middle of a mission . All of a sudden, the ancient warriors in the Huaxia region have disappeared altogether!”

“Of course . Not that there are any benefits…”

“Shush!”

Jiang Haolin sat dejectedly on the seat . He looked at the pitch-black screen emotionlessly . The drone immediately lost connection after entering the city . The drones could only wander outside but the returned transmissions were all blank .

Anguish slowly crept onto Jiang Haolin’s face .
