Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 166: Berserk Wolf Knight

Allen and the others stood up abruptly. Kejess said calmly, "You guys are really lucky. Follow me. It's time for you to gain some experience."

Everyone followed him curiously out of the meeting room, bypassing the parts workshop of an arsenal and turning into the playground. The ground on the playground was shaking and sand was spraying out from time to time. Coggess caught a soldier passing by and asked, "What's the situation?"

"Two Earth Drilling Bugs and a hundred knife ants, sir!" The warrior replied.

Keoghes let him go and said to Ellen and the others behind him, "It happens all the time. Earth-digging insects will sneak into the base from underground, and knife ants will follow the path opened by the insects."

"Isn't the base riddled with holes?" Ellen said.

"It's not that serious." "The rocks in the Blood Hawk Highlands are so hard that even Earth Drilling Bugs can't open them. There are at most three to five tunnels underground, and Earth Drilling Bugs come through the same tunnels and break out of the ground," Coggess said. "As for the aftermath, oh, here they come."

The playground rumbled, shaking up the mud and dust in the sky. A hundred-legged giant bug poked out from the ground. It opened its mouth, which was covered in broken teeth, and let out a sharp cry. Another Earth Drilling Insect also broke through the ground not far away. The two insects wriggled their bodies and climbed up from below the crypt.

On the playground, several groups of warriors covered the ground. Seven or eight of them fired machine guns, while one or two of them used flamethrowers to shoot fire dragons at the Earth Drilling Bugs. As soon as the fire dragon landed on the giant insect, a strange sizzling sound sounded. The insect's grease burned at a visible speed. Soon, the Earth Drilling Insect collapsed under the machine gun and flames.

"The Earth Drilling Bug has plenty of fat and a low ignition point. It can be easily ignited. Plus, the bug's fat can be extracted/refined into liquid energy that we use on Nether Domain." Coggess said casually.

After releasing the two Earth Drilling Bugs, a sergeant shouted out an order, and several groups of soldiers rushed towards the tunnel opened by the Earth Drilling Bugs. Suddenly, a red-brown saber ant appeared in the passageway. The pair of saber ants moved crazily, and the warriors in the front row brazenly attacked with a long saber, suppressing the saber ant back. Behind him, his comrades interrupted each other, and machine guns fired in unison, bouncing down like rain towards the underground passageway without stopping.

After a round of bullets, a soldier threw a hand/thunder towards the bottom of the passageway. Immediately, a ball of orange-colored flames exploded out of the tunnel. Once the flames passed, there was no sound in the tunnel. The warriors on the other side also acted like this, seemingly easily blocking off the knife ants and killing them in the passageway.

After a short battle, two engineering trucks drove in. The carriage body tilted, pouring a large amount of sand and stones into the passageway. In the end, he used the compactor to run over the compaction, then laid a layer of sand and stones, and the playground was restored to its original state.

Allen and the others looked at each other. It turned out that Coggess's so-called aftermath was so simple. From the looks of it, there was probably a large corpse grave below the base, burying a large number of dangerous species' corpses. These corpses could fill the tunnels dug out by the Earth Drilling Bugs, but they could also create obstacles for these dangerous species to sneak into the base. There was no need to waste time and energy to dispose of these corpses.

It was convenient, just thinking about stepping on so many corpses every day, it didn't feel so comfortable.

The next few days were spent in classes that taught the various common knowledge on Nether Domain Planet. Kejess naturally wouldn't explain the perfect planetary system to them like the instructors of Daybreak Blade. Instead, he would directly introduce Allen and the others to the dangerous species that they would often encounter in battle, as well as the composition of the Blade Demon Tribe and the organization of the army.

In addition to knife ants and earth-drilling insects, another common type of servant beast was the Berserk Horned Wolf. This wolf-type dangerous species could be tamed into mounts, and when combined with the elite warriors of the Blade Demon Tribe, they could transform into Berserk Wolf Knights. The Berserk Wolf Knights were the backbone of the Blade Demon Tribe. From the medium-sized tribes to the ten under the control of the King of Blade Demons, all of them came and went like the wind.

The Wild Horned Wolf's horn in front of its forehead could shoot out like a bullet when needed. Once there were enough horned wolves to concentrate and fire, its lethality would be extremely terrifying. However, the horn of this giant wolf was connected to the nerves in the brain. Once the horn was shot out, it would break the nerves, and the horned wolf would no longer be able to live. Therefore, they would not adopt such a tactic of losing both sides unless they reached a critical juncture.

Apart from that, there were other powerful servant beasts among the Saber Demons. However, the number of these servant beasts was limited, and they were only under the control of ten of them. The chance of encountering the Blood Hawk Base was almost zero, so Coggess did not mention it.

Next was the Blade Demon, a native of the planet that ruled the Nether Domain Star System. The Blade Demon could be said to be an innate warrior. They were cruel and savage, bloodthirsty and good at fighting. The Saber Demons weren't necessarily united. Even among the tribes, there were endless battles.

They were humanoid aliens, tall and thin, bent so that their hands almost fell to the ground. Blade Demons' skin had a dim metallic sheen, and it had proved that their skin was almost as tough as iron. The five fingers of the Saber Demon had a hook-shaped armor and a retractable bone blade hidden at the front of its arm. The spine was exposed, with sharp spikes, as hard as fine steel.

Saber Demon's social form was a relatively loose tribal civilization. Take a medium-sized tribe of a thousand people as an example. The tribe consisted of chiefs, shamans, commanders, centurions, clansmen, and servant beasts. In the ten ministries, there were also the Great Priests, Great Generals, and Thousand Commanders. From this, it could be seen that the Blade Demon's class was very distinct, and its army was tightly organized. Otherwise, it would not be able to be ranked among the seven strongest races in the Yordon Domain.

Kejess wasn't the kind of person who only imparted theoretical experience. While instilling this knowledge, he even got some living specimens for Alan and the others to practice so that they could familiarize themselves with the battle against the Blade Demon Tribe as soon as possible.

Amongst the servant beasts, the Earth Drilling Bug could be said to be the least threatening of the servant beasts. Their fear of fire and low belligerence determined the fact that these dangerous species could not even be called cannon fodder. As for the Saber Ants, their individual combat strength was not high. Not to mention Ellen, even a soldier like Naz could be easily dealt with. However, once the Saber Ant formed an order of magnitude, it was another concept.

To deal with a servant beast like the Saber Ant, the army's strategy was basically to concentrate long-range fire and kill it.

In the meantime, Kejess even found a Blade Demon. Even though they were just ordinary warriors from a small tribe, rank seven warriors like Nazi had to cooperate with the other two to kill this Saber Demon. Of course, it was a piece of cake for Ellen. Coggess had found another Saber Demon, but Allen's Three Sabers had been beheaded. This was the strongest proof.

Days passed, and by the time Hubble and the other teams joined the class, Allen's team's progress had left them far behind.

In the blink of an eye, Alan was already familiar with life on Nether Domain. On this day, when they were conducting a team simulation battle, another violent tremor came from the direction of the playground. Kejess whistled, "I'll give you guys a break. Change the simulation to actual combat."

Naz and the other soldiers were all overjoyed. Ever since they arrived at Nether Domain Star, they hadn't fought a single real battle. Now was the time!

Two soldiers carried flamethrowers on their backs, while the others carried machine guns. Alan naturally carried his fangs and led his team to the playground. On the way, Alan said to Lucy beside him, "Don't be too far away from me."

Lucy gave him a brilliant smile, "Don't make me look so delicate, don't forget that I was also a participant in the death arena."

In the blink of an eye, they had already arrived at the playground. On the playground, four Earth Drilling Insects broke through the ground in different directions. Alan gestured, and the team covered the nearest one. After entering the shooting range, Nazi and the others searched for battle positions and used machine guns to suppress the giant bugs. The two firefighters took the opportunity to push forward and spit fire dragons at the Earth Drilling Bugs.

The blazing flames burned his body, causing endless pain to the Earth Drilling Insect. The giant bug suddenly twisted its body and slammed towards Nazi with its tail wrapped in flames. The soldier's expression changed. Suddenly, a blur appeared in front of his eyes, but the tall Broy stood in front of him. The Highlanders raised an army-specific riot shield and lowered their center of gravity. They held onto the shield with both hands and forcefully carried the Earth Drilling Bug's attack. The bug's tail swayed Broy. After the attack, the Highlanders pushed the bug's tail away with their shields. Nazi took the opportunity to push forward and dump the bullets in the barrel onto the Earth Drilling Bug.

However, the giant insect had already died after striking with all its might. However, this was the first time Nazi and the others had participated in the battle. They were unavoidably excited, but they didn't see that the insect had died. They didn't stop shooting until Alan shouted to stop. Alan made another gesture and pointed at the underground passageway. Bloy took the lead, holding a shield and pushing towards the crypt. Seeing this, Alan wanted to find a good weapon for the Highlanders.

According to Broyle's development path, the army's steel eagle blade was not suitable. Broyle needed weapons like warhammers or axes, so he didn't know if Blood Eagle Base had such weapons. However, that was only after the battle had ended. Ellen held his fangs in his hand and spread them out with William on the left and right. Lucy, on the other hand, was in the middle and a little behind, and behind them were the soldiers of the squad.

He thought that a giant ant would rush up from the crypt, but a wolf howl suddenly sounded from the passageway.

Hearing the wolf howl, Kejess's expression changed slightly. In the next moment, a dark gray shadow jumped out of the tunnel and landed on the ground. It was a gray wolf the size of a calf, with four jade-green eyes. Under the kiss of the wolf, the fangs were covered in a foul yellow color. A pitch-black bone spike stretched out from the joints of all four limbs. As for the forehead of the wolf, it had a long horn shaped like a zigzag.

Wild Horned Wolf!

However, what attracted Allen and the others' attention was not the Berserk Horned Wolf, but another figure on the grey wolf's body.

Purple light flickered in his eyes like ice chips. A dark black bone blade stretched out from his flesh and skin, and the Blade Demon sitting on the Berserk Horned Wolf swept through the crowd with a fierce gaze. Then, he let out a dull roar that was not commensurate with his tall and thin body.

It was actually a Berserk Wolf Knight!

Tonight's first order is three hundred, plus night shift! How far is the next three hundred?
