Predator Outside the Game
The sea breeze gently swept across the vast sea area that was formerly known as Mao City.
Several days have passed since the last battle, and the bright red in the seawater has faded.
But under the moonlight, as the waves surged, fragments of rubble, severed limbs, and flesh could still be faintly seen.
On the outskirts of the original site of Mao City, there is a defensive line surrounded by receding water stones.
Behind the defensive line, the flag of the Southern Military District of the Human Race in Moonfall Continent Southern Military Region fluttered on another less important building next to the temporary command post.
At this time, the temporary command post was temporarily sealed off, and no sound from inside leaked out.
"The Southern Legion of the Moonfall Continent will rest in place and withdraw in an orderly manner after the arrival of allied support forces."
"Yes."
After a half-hour communication blackout, the officer in charge of the Southern Legion of the Moonfall Continent finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was relieved that they had at least captured half of the outer zone and successfully defended it.
In this way, once reinforcements arrive, there will be a ready-made breakthrough point.
However, this was the limit that the local garrison they had urgently dispatched had accomplished.
The Sea Race's fighting style dictates that if they cannot be defeated quickly and the war drags on, the Human Race will inevitably lose.
The only difference is whether you lose early or late.
After all, the almost endless hordes of sea creatures they drove were fearless "walking corpses."
Thinking of this, the officer shuddered and, as if trying to escape, brought up the matter of the sea monster in his mind.
"I wonder which unit came."
He murmured to himself, when suddenly, the Psychic Energy detectors in the camp sounded their alarms!
"Beep! Beep! Beep!..."
The officer was startled and jumped off the chair, rushing out of the temporary command post in a few strides.
What's going on?
"Report! Two armies are rapidly approaching from behind. Judging by their banners, one of them is not Human Race army; it should be Demon Race army."
"All units on alert! Attempt to re-establish communication with the Human Race army."
The entire camp stirred, all the soldiers assembled in an orderly fashion, and a large number of weapons were aimed at the billowing dust coming from behind.
The report just came in: the communications officer worked non-stop, quickly establishing Communication Chain.
The communication signal was sent, pointing directly to the Human Race army that was constantly approaching from behind.
"This is the Moonfall Continent Southern Military Region, stationed in Mao City..."
"This is the Sea Race Campaign Allied Coalition, here to reclaim Mao City. Please open your camp."
The communicator's words were interrupted as the unfamiliar army's operator, while speaking, sent a coded message to the communicator.
The messenger immediately reported, "Commander, it's reinforcements. They're asking us to open the camp."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the officer ordered, "Open the front and back gates of the camp! Everyone be on alert for Sea Race counterattack!"
The military order was given and obeyed without question. The front and rear gates of the camp were opened, forming a road leading directly to the sea area of Mao City.
Upon noticing the unusual activity in the Human Race camp, the Sea Race general reacted swiftly.
"Waaaaah--!"
A strange, distant sound emanated from Haiti, Human Race soldiers, upon hearing that familiar noise, instinctively gripped their weapons tighter.
The sound lasted only a moment before being completely drowned out by the sound of the sea rippling.
The next moment, a massive number of sea monsters emerged like a surging tide!
However, this time, before they could even reach the camp, the ambush had already begun.
The allied forces, like arrows piercing the clouds, swept past the camp in the blink of an eye and crashed directly into the vanguard of the sea monsters.
The camp gate was closed again, and the seawater that had been approaching the camp was pushed back out.
A small Human Race unit that had strayed from the main force during the charge approached the officer, dismounted, saluted, and then began to relay military orders.
"The Legion stationed in Mao City under the Moonfall Continent Southern Military Region shall immediately withdraw and return to the Moonfall Continent Southern Military Region for treatment."
"Mao City has Sea Race Campaign Allied Coalition."
"Receive."
The officer bowed in return, "Wishing you all the best in your campaign!"
Without lingering, he quickly directed his soldiers to hand over the position to the Allied forces and then immediately withdrew.
Most of their men were wounded. Although they still had some fighting ability, they were still a burden compared to the Allied forces.
Lingering here too long would hinder the coalition's subsequent operations.
Just as the army of the Moonfall Continent Southern Military Region left the camp and was about to return to its own headquarters.
The lurking Shisui had been lying motionless in Mao City, suddenly vanished from the spot.
"Hang in there, everyone. Let's get away from the shore first, and then slowly head back."
The army marched north at a considerable pace, intending to first leave the coastline where they might be attacked by Sea Race.
Afterwards, they made do with the care of the seriously wounded soldiers and slowly headed west back to their own headquarters.
The soldiers supported each other and hurried along for two hours.
After that, they gradually slowed their march and turned west.
Half an hour later, estimating that the soldiers had reached their limit, the army finally halted its advance.
"Set up camp on the spot and have the soldiers with minor injuries take turns keeping watch at night."
"Yes."
Because this place is close to the Huaihuang Continent, there aren't many trees, so there's no need to cut down trees to clear the campsite.
Portable tents and barracks were quickly set up, and the exhausted soldiers seized the opportunity to rest.
To avoid revealing their location or being attacked, the army of the Moonfall Continent implemented strict blackout measures.
They did not turn on the lights.
Even during their previous marches, they only had time to see by the relatively bright moonlight tonight.
However, while such caution might prevent some minor dangers, it benefits these Predators who are Shisui fond of the night.
"Laugh!"
In the dim light of the night, warm liquid spilled onto a drowsy soldier on night watch.
The familiar, sweet, and slightly fishy smell instantly sobered him up.
However, it was too late.
"Laugh!"
Because his body was also pierced by the Bikaku.
At the same time, all the waking soldiers outside the camp were simultaneously pierced through various parts of their bodies by the suddenly appearing Radiant Feathers.
Then, before the stench of blood could spread, it was gathered up by the Spatial Energy erupting from Radiant Feathers.
Under the moonlight, red rhomboid crystals emerged, reflecting a deep, cold light.
A bright red, ripe peach curled out of the soldier's body from the Shisui Bikaku.
He held the "peach" in his hand, walked past the mangled remains that were gradually turning into Flesh Crystals, and stepped into the camp.
He leisurely munched on the tender, juicy "peach," and wherever he went, sharp Radiant Feathers flashed, and crystals flew out of the tent.
"Rustle..."
The sound of footsteps stomping across the grass was like the whisper of death, gradually engulfing the entire camp.
Finally, only the central officers' camp remained.
Shisui's swaggering behavior still alerted the officer and his personal guards.
"Who exactly are you, sir?"
The guards activated their Psychic Energy, and the auras of the Earth Realm Third Realm spread out as if to intimidate.
Was it a sneak attack by the Demon Race? Or by the Beastfolk?
"None of those."
It was as if I could hear the officer's heartfelt thoughts, which had been swirling within him a thousand times.
Shisui smiled and spoke softly, without any murderous intent or excitement, simply raising his hand calmly.
In an instant, the Radiant Feathers pierced the skulls of Human Race present.
"I'm outside your game."
