<Swallowed Star>

This Beast Tide was indeed the handiwork of the Black and White Clown. This Blood Demon Wolf had actually been influenced by their leader, intercepting several waves of beasts in the mountains and forests, merging them together to launch an attack on the base.

Upon realizing all of this, Ma Tianxing took a deep breath. Seeing that more than four hours had passed since Lin Chenxing went to rest, he stood up, walked to the door of the lounge, and knocked.

The moment the knocking sounded, the snoring inside the room vanished instantly, followed by a series of rustling noises.

After Lin Chenxing finished dressing, the door opened. Lin Chenxing was seen rubbing his eyes and patting his cheeks, yawning as he asked, "Director Ma, has something happened?"

Ma Tianxing handed the documents in his hand to Lin Chenxing.

After taking them, Lin Chenxing began to read them carefully.

Upon seeing the situation regarding the leader of the Black and White Clown, Lin Chenxing couldn't help but offer a bitter smile, saying, "With such strength, why must they target a small place like ours?"

Ma Tianxing recounted the conclusions he had pondered earlier to Lin Chenxing: "A single War God is enough to guard a settlement of over a hundred thousand people. Their so-called Number Five possesses the strength of an Advanced Battle General and is also a Psychic Master, a type of Martial Artist rarely found to have an equal at the same level. This suggests their boss must have already reached the level of a War God, so he is likely preparing to establish his own faction."

"But looking at their conduct, I don't think they are good people either," Lin Chenxing complained.

Ma Tianxing shook his head and said, "There is no absolute definition of good or evil. If he treats those under his rule well, how can we call him evil? Perhaps he is only ruthless toward those outside his own circle? Regardless of whether he is good or bad, we must prepare immediately. We need to complete all defensive fortifications while they likely still don't know that these two died here."

Lin Chenxing thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Actually, I thought about this while resisting the Beast Tide. Since I can control the bamboo, and I have been cultivating it on the spot, could we transplant the bamboo outside our walls? If we form a bamboo forest, those weak monsters won't be able to break in."

Ma Tianxing stroked his chin and said, "It has some feasibility, but I'm afraid there's no way to create a bamboo forest quickly. This is a good long-term strategy, but it won't yield results in the short term, and it probably won't be of much use against the next offensive from the Black and White Clown."

A smile appeared on the corner of Lin Chenxing's mouth as he said, "I can make these bamboo plants temporarily stop growing and boost the reproductive capacity of the bamboo roots to the maximum. According to my estimates, if provided with sufficient nutrients, I should be able to form a three-to-four-meter-wide bamboo forest around the outside of the wall within a month."

Ma Tianxing's face lit up with joy, his tone becoming slightly more cheerful as he said, "That would be great! Within a month, as long as Old Gao and Old He can recover, Tianwen can recover, and Old Guo breaks through to an Advanced Battle General, our chances of surviving this crisis will become much higher."

Lin Chenxing simply nodded, rubbing the sore parts of his body while walking to his seat and plopping down.

"Let me see how much this battle has affected our base." Lin Chenxing began flipping through the documents on the table.

Ma Tianxing said with a solemn expression, "No need to look, I'll tell you directly. In this Beast Tide, we lost a total of 6 Advanced Warriors and 13 Intermediate Warriors. We have 3 Junior Battle Generals, 17 Advanced Warriors, and 11 Intermediate Warriors who are severely or lightly injured. The losses are quite significant. However, because of this battle, excluding Old Guo, two Junior Battle Generals have indicated they can quickly break through to the Intermediate Battle General level, and 8 Advanced Warriors have also indicated they can reach the Junior Battle General level. In terms of overall strength, we are actually a bit stronger than before."

"In this battle, we harvested a total of four Advanced Beast General monster corpses, twelve Intermediate Beast General monster corpses, thirty-seven Junior Beast General monster corpses, and 1,363 units of Beast Soldier-level materials."

"We must thank Tianwen for his contribution this time; he exhausted his mental energy completely. According to Doctor Mao's estimation, it will take about three or four days to recover to seventy or eighty percent. Thanks to him, we basically wiped out all the Beast Soldiers, otherwise, our casualties would have been even greater."

"Actually, these gains are far less significant than the information obtained from the Black and White Clown. Besides the introduction to Psychic Masters and the current basic situation, this document contains quite a bit of cultivation experience. This experience should help us train more Martial Artists."

Hearing this, Lin Chenxing felt a jolt of energy and immediately began reading the document again.

A large portion of the document introduced an auxiliary cultivation method called "Guidance Technique." Combined with the partial Guidance Technique they had obtained from Number Forty-One, this began to shock Lin Chenxing, as more and more familiarity appeared before his eyes.

Until he flipped to a page introducing some of the strongest people in Huaxia.

Thunder God, a Higher War God, a mixed-race child of Huaxia and Tianzhu. He followed his father to practice yoga and achieved great success in it. At the same time, because he was passionate about Huaxia martial arts, he was known as the "Thunder Madman."

Hong, a Higher War God, a former assassin who carried out many life-or-death missions, escaping from certain-death situations multiple times and successfully completing his tasks.

These two entries completely activated the memories in Lin Chenxing's mind.

Lin Chenxing's head suddenly began to ache. He clutched his head with both hands, his expression slightly contorted.

Seeing Lin Chenxing in such pain, Ma Tianxing hurriedly stepped forward to ask if he was feeling unwell and if he needed a doctor to be called over.

Lin Chenxing struggled to extend a hand and said, "It's nothing, I just didn't rest well enough. I'll go rest for a bit."

Ma Tianxing was somewhat worried and instructed Lin Chenxing, "If you have any problems later, call me immediately. I'll be in your office."

Lin Chenxing returned to the lounge, lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and kept rubbing his temples, beginning to examine the memories that had just suddenly resurfaced.

Swallowed Star. So, this was the world of Swallowed Star. This meant he finally had a future he could use as a reference.

But why didn't hearing the name "Thunder Madman" in the martial arts circles before trigger his memories? The reason for that remained unknown.

Lin Chenxing felt a sense of pleasant surprise, though the book he had read at the time didn't contain much about the Great Nirvana period, often glossing over it in just a few strokes.

The Great Nirvana... counting from the year 13, it lasted a total of eight years, ending in 21. And now it was only September of 16. He had to persist through these four-plus years, and he had to use the content of the book he had read to replan his path, break through to the Planetary Level as soon as possible, and ideally, become one of the council members.

Lin Chenxing began to set this goal within his heart.
