Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Wu Zhiqi, Tian Fengyi, brandished the pitch-black metal long rod in his hand and said in a deep voice, ”We must handle this ourselves here! We cannot cause trouble for those four great lords!”

Not far from him, a strange beast with snow-white fur and four fluffy, large tails bared its fangs, emitting an icy voice from its mouth. ”We know that without you telling us! Let’s have a competition next, see who kills more!”

This one was the leader of the Five Immortals from the Northeast Region, Fox Immortal Hu Mengfang. His ability was to transform into a massive demon fox.

”Then what are we waiting for, let’s go!”

Even on the steep cliff face, Tian Fengyi’s speed of movement did not diminish in the slightest. As the captain of the Dragon’s Roar Guards stationed at Wuyou Valley, having been here for over a year, he was extremely familiar with the terrain here. As a giant ape, he was long accustomed to climbing and leaping on steep cliff faces.

He moved across the cliff face as if walking on flat ground, his heavy pitch-black metal rod whistling through the air as he swung it, carrying force capable of splitting mountains and cleaving rocks. He aimed a fierce downward strike at a purple Ground Centipede dozens of meters long!

Seeing this, that Ground Centipede actually directly swung its pincer-like claws up to meet the attack!

”Clang!”

A metallic clashing sound rang out, like two war chariots colliding. Tian Fengyi was actually sent flying back several thousand meters. He used the momentum to hook onto the cliff face with the grappling hook in his hand.

That Ground Centipede didn’t fare well either. Its pincer claws shattered with a ”crack!” and its massive body slammed into the cliff wall behind it with a ”boom!”

Tian Fengyi’s pupils sharply contracted.

He hadn’t expected that his full-force strike hadn’t even killed this creature!

”Incredible defensive power! Is this what a Ground Centipede raised on Elemental Stones is like?”

Hu Mengfang said, ”Isn’t that even better? That way, their entire bodies become treasures. Killing them allows us to absorb even higher-quality energy!”

The four-tailed demon fox he had transformed into opened its large mouth. A mass of cyan-colored special ability rapidly condensed within its mouth before being violently shot downwards!

Under the sweeping torrent of fierce wind, it transformed into a massive tornado that directly tore hundreds of Ground Centipedes right off the cliff face, sending them plummeting into the endless abyss.

From the Northwest Region, Sky War God Cheng Lanlan transformed into a peregrine falcon.

Her body size wasn’t huge, only about the height of a person. She looked so tiny. Judging by size alone, she was easily overlooked. It was hard to imagine a beast-type ability user’s body being this small.

But when she launched her assault, the lethality she displayed was utterly astonishing!

Her combat style was extremely simple.

She utilized her sharp claws and beak, combined with her extreme speed, to complete the slaughter of the Ground Centipede swarm!

When she flapped her wings, no one could clearly see her movements. Only by faintly using the light reflections from the radiance released by Deng Shentong could one see her leaving behind thin, thread-like traces in the air, as if she were slicing space itself.

And wherever she passed, those Ground Centipedes’ bodies were also neatly sliced apart. Large amounts of broken bodies didn’t even have time to fall before she snatched them up and carried them back to place on the elevator platform.

Seeing the others from different regions acting so formidably, the few from the Jiangnan Region also didn’t want to fall behind—at least that’s what Liang Yue and Old You thought.

Relying on the mech suit crafted for him by Lu Keran, Old You could temporarily unleash attack power comparable to the squad leader level.

But this effect was relatively short-lived because weapons would eventually run out.

So even if he was eager to charge out and kill enemies, he still had to consider the practical situation and didn’t dare venture too far from the team’s position.

As for Fatty Xu... well... his main ability was still providing support, controlling the battlefield from a distance.

So strictly speaking, the main combat power on the Jiangnan Region side was basically Liang Yue and Hua Hua.

Watching the increasingly fierce battle below, with those powerful, differently-colored Ground Centipedes joining the battlefield and putting immense pressure on the superhuman army, they couldn’t choose to remain aloof either.

Hua Hua finally began to unleash its might.

As a 9800-point strange beast, the power it could actually unleash was even more formidable than the others!

This was a difference in innate talent. After unlocking its genetic lock, its talent ceiling was Epsilon, an advantage unmatched by any other superhuman present.

The power of [Glutton] further granted it a perpetual motion machine-like sustained combat capability in group battles.

”Liang Yue, Old You, get on!”

Hua Hua used the translation device to speak to the two of them.

Old You and Liang Yue leaped from the cliff face onto Hua Hua’s back. Immediately, Hua Hua spread its wings and dove directly towards the Ground Centipede swarm below!

A deep red energy cannon shot across space, instantly annihilating a large swath of Ground Centipedes.

Such formidable power made the superhumans from the other regions couldn’t help but glance over with surprise.

The power displayed by Hua Hua was probably second only to the tier of the four Epsilon-level superhumans among those participating in this operation.

Hua Hua didn’t care about them. Seeing these insects, its eyes were filled with nothing but excitement.

What others saw as trouble was food in its eyes!

Because only it could ignore the troublesome flesh and blood of these creatures and directly devour them.

”Roar!!”

Hua Hua dove downwards, [Beast King’s Roar] activating directly.

The roar of the king of beasts was a tremendous pressure, a direct attack on the soul. Although its deterrence wasn’t enough to destroy large numbers of Ground Centipedes, within a radius of several thousand meters, all Ground Centipedes were roared into dizziness and disorientation, temporarily losing their ability to move.

”Great opportunity!”

Old You said excitedly, about to charge over and reap the harvest.

But Liang Yue pressed him down with one hand. ”You stay! Just provide long-range support.”

Liang Yue considered things very thoroughly. Old You, who overly relied on external equipment, actually had his combat power heavily discounted.

If something happened to him after charging over, it wouldn’t be easy to explain to Zhang Yi later.

Old You was slightly taken aback, also realizing this point, then nodded.

Liang Yue leaped high, firing a grappling hook from her combat suit to catch onto a protrusion on the cliff wall. Then, stepping on the cliff face, she swiftly dashed towards a group of Ground Centipedes ahead.

The Dragon’s Roar in her hand swung swiftly and without flourish, each blade deeply piercing into the core positions of the Ground Centipedes!

”Thud!” ”Thud!” ”Thud!” ”Thud!”

Clean and neat, green blood spurted out. One Ground Centipede after another was directly killed.

Liang Yue’s combat wasn’t flashy, even appearing somewhat plain, like a farmer plowing a field.

But true killing techniques never prioritize looking good; they prioritize practicality.

Just like when Liang Yue taught Zhang Yi martial arts, she once told him that in life-or-death combat, moves like ”fishing the moon from the sea bottom” or ”thousand-year kill” could take lives if used well.

It’s said that the once highly famous Fang Shiyu was killed by Master Wumei via anal extraction.
