Inside the Shelter.
The smell of gunpowder mixed with the scent of rotting flesh filled the air, beneath the city walls were piled bodies of the Beastmen, rivers of blood flowed.
Lin Yi watched as the last Beastman beneath the walls twisted and convulsed, then died.
[Congratulations! The invasion has been repelled!]
A Shelter notification appeared before his eyes.
Lin Yi stretched lazily, with a hint of sigh.
Throughout the battle, not a single Beastman considered escaping.
The last Beastman, even at the end, was still furiously pounding the city gate, hoping to break through the gate—
to massacre the weak on the other side... humans?
But the gate remained as sturdy as before, with only some claw marks and scorch marks on the surface.
This damn thing, was all built with money!
Lin Yi's good mood vanished instantly.
"Solomon, have your men go collect the enemy's corpses, if there are any Professionals among them, they might have System Equipment on them!"
"Yes, boss!"
Solomon answered eagerly, he craved high-quality System Equipment more than anyone else.
He quickly organized his subordinates and ordered the soldiers to gather the dead enemies' bodies and equipment.
Meanwhile, others were busy treating the wounded, repairing the city walls, and transporting ammunition.
Unfortunately, there were some casualties.
Three soldiers were sacrificed in the battle, over thirty were injured to varying degrees.
All damages to the Shelter came from those one hundred Beastman Professionals, who were truly terrifying.
If there had been two hundred, or even more such Beastman Professionals, this battle would have been troublesome...
"Look, boss." Solomon suddenly ran over, handing him a massive axe.
The axe handle was wrapped in faded beast skin, the smell of blood mixed with resin assaulted his senses.
Lin Yi examined it carefully.
The axe looked quite ordinary, with a wooden handle and iron blade, possibly made of iron. The blade had numerous scratches and notches, indicating that the weapon had seen many battles.
[Basic Axe, Second Level]
A weapon forged by Blacksmith Terdyuti, easy to use, low production cost.
"They can craft their own System Weapons! And this one is a second-level!"
"Not bad, hand all equipment over to Sylvie, send a few corpses to the professor, and throw the rest in the pit."
Lin Yi said with a mischievous grin, looking at the dead Beastmen.
"Prepare a military jeep and a few people for me, let's see what other surprises these 'guests' have prepared for us."
~~~~~~
"Great Master! We have been defeated! The scouts have been thrown into the Xiji Pit as punishment for deceiving the Master. We await your orders, Father of our nation."
Old Beastman Shu rushed into the throne hall, fell to the ground, and banged his head fiercely.
Lord Terghai possessed a sphere that could display the battle conditions from the Beastman's perspective.
But after the last Warrior was slain, the sphere shattered and the image disappeared.
"They were well-prepared, while we underestimated their defenses. However! In open areas, they are no match for us!"
Terghai was very confident, this confidence came from—his undefeated record.
He laughed heartily, hitting the skull he leaned on for his throne with all his might.
"If they're foolish enough to launch a counterattack, I will personally confront them and devour all their flesh!"
"Yes!" Shu exited the throne hall, leaving his Lord alone.
At this moment, Terghai's laughter stopped.
"An interesting race, seemed to be called humans? Their combat power was far more formidable than any similar race I've encountered..."
~~~~~~
Inside the Shelter.
Solomon asked anxiously, "The car is ready, boss... are you sure we should act now? It's getting dark."
"We won't be sleeping tonight, we must find out how much troop strength the enemy has left and how strong their defenses are."
Lin Yi had a serious look on his face, nighttime was the best time to launch a surprise attack.
"Boss, you're right...."
"You're in charge of defense, and also take care of the new recruits, let them know the latest situation."
"I've already talked to them. Hubert said he wants to help train our armed forces, he's an experienced veteran, and his men are all experts, so I agreed without hesitation."
"Alright, you two handle this matter. I'll be back in fifteen to twenty minutes."
Joining him this time were Da Xinchuan and a tall, skinny guy named Gobi.
This guy was a Level Four, with Throwing Skills.
The skill wasn't particularly special, it just allowed him to throw things very far, but with extreme precision.
This operation required someone with such talent.
Lin Yi boarded a military jeep with a machine gun mounted on the roof and headed towards the Space-Time Fragment occupied by the Beastmen.
The roar of the engine startled a swarm of bioluminescent insects, tracing eerie green trails in the night sky.
Upon entering, he didn't see the expected desert but found himself in a tropical rainforest.
However, it was immediately followed by a desert, then another evergreen forest...
The jeep ran over thorny vines, a faint scent of resin wafted through the air, the same as the scent of that axe.
Da Xinchuan looked around and said, "This place is really strange."
He found it odd, but Lin Yi did not.
Upon conquering other fragments, the fragment would automatically become a new territory of the original Fragment World.
Through his observation, this "Lord of Space-Time" kept expanding his territory by plundering other Fragment Worlds.
He was also smart, only attacking small fragments, which meant weak worlds.
This was why everyone saw a different landscape after walking a certain distance.
In fact, Lin Yi thought it was a pretty good idea, not wasting Coins to expand territory, and could deal with easy targets to train soldiers.
"I see a village up ahead." Gobi said through the wireless radio.
Everyone saw it too, it was a tall wooden fence, at least 30 meters high, each post used was very thick, difficult for three grown men to encircle.
Observation towers were built at the top of the fence, each capable of accommodating about twenty people.
"There's no one on the towers!" Gobi said again.
Xiaochuan was also excited, "Looks like they've used up their people, no one's defending this place!"
"Stay alert, it might save your life! They could be ambushed half a kilometer away from us..."
Lin Yi's palm was rubbing the gun handle, he was skeptical about suggestions of safety, his intuition told him the place wasn't that simple.
The fact that they could craft their own weapons and armor, and build such things.
Was enough to show they weren't stupid.
Xiaochuan woke up from Lin Yi's reprimand, after all, he had made such mistakes before.
"Then what do they want to do?"
"If I were them, I would try every means to lure the enemy into an open area for confrontation, to play to the Beastmen's great advantage."
Gobi was startled by the boss's words, he had never considered this aspect.
