As the Fire Hammer Squad advanced, all kinds of roars echoed through the air—some from monsters, others from humans.

"What the hell, where did all these dogs come from?!"

Zhang Ke looked toward the source of the sound and immediately broke into a cold sweat. It turned out to be a foreign squad.

"City 003 is a mixed bag..."

Gao Feng explained in a low voice: "It's not just strong warriors from the Hanxia Kingdom—experts from the Europa Region, the India Region, and even the America Region all come here!"

"As expected of City 003!"

Luo Feng's eyes lit up.

By the time they reached the outskirts along the Ring Expressway, the Fire Hammer Squad had already taken down over forty monsters, including seven at the Beast General Level.

"Ahead, a sixteen-story building!"

Gao Feng waved his hand, directing everyone toward the dilapidated residential area on the right: "Jiang Li and I will scout ahead. Luo Feng, you cover the rear!"

"Got it!"

Jiang Li's eyes sharpened as his psychic power spread outward.

As his cultivation improved, his 'Sea of Consciousness' had also expanded, and his psychic force instantly blanketed the entire floor.

"Careful—there's a wolf-type monster on the third floor. Huh? It's a Silver Moon Dire Wolf!"

Jiang Li warned. The others trusted him without question and immediately entered combat readiness.

The moment Jiang Li, Gao Feng, and the others turned onto the third floor, the Silver Moon Dire Wolf sensed them. Its gray fur instantly turned snow-white as it lunged, a silver blur of death.

"High-level Beast General?!"

Gao Feng's sharp eyes caught it, and he cried out in alarm.

At the same time, Jiang Li moved.

Clad in a white combat suit, he shot forward like a bolt of lightning. The Bloodshadow Warblade in his hand traced a crimson arc, striking the Silver Moon Dire Wolf's head without a hair's breadth of error.

Boom!

With a thunderous crash, the Silver Moon Dire Wolf's body smashed through three floors and slammed into the underground parking garage!

"What the?!"

Seeing this, Gao Feng's eyes went wide. The twin hammers he had raised hung awkwardly in the air, unsure what to do.

The other members of the Fire Hammer Squad stared at Jiang Li, dumbfounded.

"Jiang... Jiang Ge..."

"Did you break through to War God?!"

!!!

"Yeah!"

Jiang Li sheathed his blade and smiled faintly: "Just got lucky!"

"Lucky?" The Fire Hammer Squad's jaws dropped.

Bro, War God!

The watershed for human martial artists!

Can you not be so modest?!

War Gods were rare to begin with, let alone one as young as Jiang Li.

"And Jiang Ge is also a Psychic!"

Chapter 34: Red-Horned Black Python, Young Master Li Wei

Wei Qing gasped seven or eight times, his eyes suddenly blazing: "Too terrifying, too insane—I actually have a War God for a brother?"

"Quick, slap me twice. Let me feel the pain so I believe this isn't a dream!"

Everyone: "..."

"It's a good thing Jiang Li broke through to War God..."

Gao Feng, still the steady one, couldn't help but sigh: "Otherwise, that Silver Moon Dire Wolf would have been a real pain to deal with."

A high-level Beast General Silver Moon Dire Wolf moved faster than sound. Even ordinary War Gods found it tricky to handle, let alone Warrior Generals.

But it ran into Jiang Li. Within the range of his psychic coverage, its speed lost all advantage.

And with Jiang Li's physique at the initial War God level, even without internal energy amplification, each strike exceeded 64 tons. Unless a Beast General had extreme defensive power, it couldn't withstand a single slash from his blade.

For reference, the strength threshold for a War God was 64,000 KG. But as one's realm advanced and genes strengthened, the physical boost gradually increased.

Super experts like Hong and Thunder God could amplify their raw physical combat power by six or seven times, even without using any secret techniques.

Of course, that's a story for later.

Soon.

After the Fire Hammer Squad finished dissecting the Silver Moon Dire Wolf's materials, they quickly headed up to the rooftop of the sixteenth floor, where a sheet-metal shed happened to be sitting—perfect as a temporary shelter.

"I really can't believe it!"

"This is insane!"

"I feel like I've witnessed a miracle!"

"Have some confidence—drop the 'feel like'!"

"Brother Jiang, you've already broken through to War God—you could totally head into the wilderness alone!"

The group burst into exclamations, and Wei Tie, with clear self-awareness, said, "We'd just be dead weight for you..."

Even though they'd used A-grade gene potions and their physiques had been massively boosted, they'd barely crossed the threshold of the initial Warrior General level.

That kind of strength meant nothing in front of a War God.

When Wei Tie said that, the expressions of the others shifted.

"You know I can't process materials."

Jiang Li smiled lightly and teased, "You don't expect me to drag corpses around everywhere, do you?"

"Besides, I don't have binoculars either..."

"And if I went out alone, Ling Ling wouldn't rest easy."

Hearing that.

The Fire Hammer Squad members exchanged glances, then all broke into laughter.

Those were jokes, sure, but they undeniably smoothed over the distance that strength differences could create...

After all, facing a Warrior General and facing a War God were two completely different things.

"Looks like Brother Jiang still needs someone to pick up materials!"

Luo Feng even cracked a rare joke.

"Hahaha!"

After the Fire Hammer Squad rested for a night, a chill began to creep in—winter was almost here.

"Jiang Li, do you have any plans?"

Gao Feng leaned against the rooftop railing, using binoculars to scout the surroundings. Seeing the group come out of the shed, he asked first.

"Captain, I'm clueless about this stuff—I'll follow your lead."

Team combat wasn't Jiang Li's forte, so he naturally wouldn't overstep.

"Good."

"I've been observing for a few hours. Right now, I've spotted dozens of Beast General-level monsters in this old residential area, but no Lord-level monsters yet."

Gao Feng didn't stand on ceremony. Pointing at the crisscrossing alleys and dense clusters of buildings below, he said, "Let's start hunting monsters in this zone first!"

"Let's go, brothers—time to get rich with Brother Jiang!" the Wei Brothers laughed excitedly.

"Zone 003 really lives up to being one of Hanxia Kingdom's most dangerous cities—monsters everywhere!"

Zhang Ke and Chen Gu's eyes lit up too.

Monsters everywhere meant extreme danger, but also an incalculable fortune.

'Whoosh!'

'Bang! Bang!'

'Swoosh!' 'Swoosh!' 'Swoosh!'

Luo Feng manipulated the flying knives, swiftly piercing through cover and killing three Silver Thread Snakes behind the wall: "No monsters within fifty meters!"

"No wonder Psychics are so sought after..."

Zhang Ke sighed sincerely, "They're basically mobile humanoid detectors!"

"Everyone, stay alert—don't talk loudly..."

Gao Feng shot Zhang Ke a glare and warned in a low voice, "A lot of monsters have hearing far sharper than humans!"

"Hm? Two hundred meters ahead..."

Everyone's gaze quickly converged on a basketball court in the old residential area. Coiled in the middle of the court were over a dozen pitch-black giant pythons covered in scales, one of which was over ten meters long and had a blood-red horn on its head.

"Red-Horned Black Python?"

Gao Feng said quietly, "This kind of black python needs at least a mid-level Beast General to grow a red horn!"

"That horn alone is worth at least 200 million!"

Their eyes gleamed with greed. Jiang Li and Luo Feng turned into two blurs as they charged straight in.
