Chapter 74 Suppression
This tribe of artificial orcs may seem small, but in reality, it is like a bottomless pit, with no end in sight.
Although they have learned to use torches to illuminate certain spaces, the brightness within those spaces is like that of fireflies, a world apart from true light.
Deep within the nest, countless eggs are scattered like stars, and faintly, one egg can be seen trembling slightly, as if announcing to the world the imminent arrival of new life.
If all goes as expected, these trembling eggs will hatch in about ten days.
The cave was filled with a nauseating stench, a putrid and pungent odor mixed with an unknown bloody smell, as if these artificial beastmen had created the monstrous result of fusing human blood with the blood of soul beasts according to their memories.
Witnessing all this disgusting stuff, Wu Heyi did not hesitate at all. The energy of his armor gathered like a torrent on the blade of the Flaming Blade.
The rich fiery energy concentrated on the blade like a volcanic eruption. Wu Heyi slashed horizontally, and the blade light, imbued with the power of lava, flashed across the sky like lightning, instantly sweeping past all the eggs.
The eggs that were trembling suddenly became motionless, as if they had been frozen in place.
Immediately afterwards, a wisp of fire element ignited in Wu Heyi's hand, and he descended like a fire god, unleashing a fiery palm strike towards the group of eggs.
In an instant, a tiny flame emanated from each egg, like a burning fuse, bursting open from the inside out. Those eggs that had already hatched baby beastmen were mercilessly devoured by the fierce flames, and the beastmen that had not fully hatched were reduced to ashes in the raging fire.
As he watched the entire cave gradually ignite, Wu Heyi searched around like a falcon, making sure no trace was left before leaving the cave with peace of mind.
At the cave entrance, he held the Flame Bow and fired flaming projectiles at the entrance with rage. In just a few seconds, the entire cave entrance vanished without a trace in a sea of fire.
After everyone had safely evacuated, Wu Heyi completely destroyed the entire tribe. Then, like a victorious messenger, he released a dazzling signal into the sky, fulfilling his agreement with the academy.
Once the wounded are found, a signal flare should be released.
The academy will definitely send reinforcements.
The original plan was that Wu Heyi only needed to lead his team to find Mi'er or any of the captured wounded soldiers, and then immediately release the signal flare.
At that time, the academy would send many experts to provide assistance, but Wu Heyi witnessed Mi'er being bound and seriously injured.
In an instant, his anger erupted like a volcano. Although he managed to control his team members, he failed to restrain himself and recklessly charged into the heart of the battle.
Fortunately, they were lucky. Although their opponent could use soul skills, the way he used them was like that of a wild beast, completely lacking the agility unique to humans.
Therefore, they wiped them out through teamwork. At this point, a complete retreat was necessary. Wu He's side remembered that they needed to release a signal flare. The main reason for releasing it at this time was that there were too many wounded, and it would be difficult for the five of them to take them away by themselves.
Without asking for help, it might be impossible to get out of this forest.
After they destroyed this evil base, countless high-level soul beasts, like hungry tigers, began to lure them in.
Perhaps those soul beasts are gathering their forces and could attack their wounded and sick team at any moment.
However, they were very lucky. As soon as Wu Heyi released the signal flare, several mission teams from the academy gathered in this direction like birds in flight.
Once they realized that the leader was Wu Heyi, they quickened their pace and approached as swiftly as arrows released from a bow.
Upon seeing who it was, Wu Heyi was extremely pleased. The captains of these teams were mostly rising stars trained by Wu Heyi and Mi'er.
After their arrival, Wu Heyi and the others breathed a sigh of relief. The original five normal people dragged more than a dozen wounded people and transformed into a mighty team of more than thirty people!
As they approached the outer edge of the Soul Beast Forest, they finally caught a glimpse of the Dean leading the team to meet them. Dean Sen, in particular, was heartbroken when he saw so many children severely injured, some of whom even those with discerning eyes could tell had their foundations damaged and were beyond hope of ever advancing any further.
Dean Sen hurriedly summoned his martial soul and unleashed his fourth soul skill: Rotten Wood New Spring, which instantly radiated light.
Everyone enveloped by this soul skill felt their physical strength, soul power, and mental power receive a great boost, as if a long-awaited rain had come after a drought!
Some people whose foundations were slightly damaged also felt that their foundations were gradually being repaired. Although they have not fully recovered, it has rekindled their hope for life!
Back at the academy, finally free from trivial matters, he could finally relax, let out a long howl, and then fall asleep.
This sleep lasted for three days and three nights, as if trying to sink all the fatigue into a dream.
With his energy, spirit, and vitality finally back to their peak, Wu Heyi, as usual, arrived at the academy's simulation training ground.
As soon as she reached the door, she heard a series of crisp training sounds coming from the training ground, like a sudden storm.
Typical simulation training grounds are designed to simulate the environment where Soul Masters can cultivate most quickly. Most Soul Masters choose to meditate in these training grounds, absorbing Soul Power particles that can help them, much like a sponge absorbs water.
Wu Heyi's appearance at the simulation training ground so early, especially one with a combat style, was truly unprecedented.
However, when he opened the door to the training ground, the scene before him left him speechless for a long time.
"Mi, Mi'er..."
This surprised him greatly, but also filled him with joy. The reason for his delight was that Mi'er had recovered her physical condition and was able to participate in normal training.
The reason for the surprise was quite simple: early in the morning, Mi'er was in the mimicry laboratory, like a mad beast, constantly venting her resentment towards the experimental dolls.
This volatile emotion, like a surging tide, tightly enveloped Mi'er, making her extremely insecure, and she continued to blame herself.
"It's all because I'm not strong enough, otherwise my teacher wouldn't have left me!"
Wu Heyi moved closer and clearly saw the large, pearl-like tears rolling down Mi'er's cheeks. He knew the resentment in her heart; perhaps this was the price that had to be paid for growing up.
Wu Heyi, like a lonely shadow, silently withdrew from the training ground. He knew all too well that in this world, for a Soul Master, ordinary words of comfort were like a drop in the ocean, utterly useless. Even if you exhausted your words to comfort her, she could not escape the inner condemnation that would haunt her like a shadow.
Only by allowing her to release her inner resentment and other emotions like a burst dam can she possibly escape the quagmire of this matter. It must be understood that not all Soul Masters have a smooth path to godhood.
At the same time, Wu Heyi was surprised to find that in other simulated fields, there were other students with the same experience. They were like imprisoned beasts, desperately venting their resentment.
Back on the stairs outside the venue, he looked at the other members of the team and smiled at each other. Their smiles seemed to contain the bitterness of gallnuts, needing no words, yet conveying a thousand unspoken messages!
