C51 Beast Feast

"Ah …!"

Just as a painful scream was heard, it was drowned out by the roars of countless wild beasts. A gray-clothed martial artist struggled to kill a wolf, but before he could even gasp for breath, he was pierced by another wolf's sharp claws. Before his companions could rescue him, this seriously injured martial artist had already been dragged into the pack of wolves, and was then quickly torn into pieces.

The two small teams nearby saw this scene. At this moment, they no longer had any anger that they needed to vent, and there was even a hint of fear and unease in their eyes. This pack of wolves weren't afraid of death at all. They risked their lives to leave some scars on the martial artists in front of them. This kind of suicidal strategy left even the gray-clothed martial artists panic-stricken.

"Hurry up and support them. No matter what, keep them in formation." A middle-aged bald man in the middle of the camp calmly gave the order.

His voice sounded as calm as ever, but at this moment, his heart was incomparably shocked. This group of people had been in this mountain range for a few years and had killed many wild beasts. It wasn't as if they hadn't encountered wolves before, but this was the first time he had encountered wolves of this scale.

He did not believe in the "beast tide" that someone had just shouted because he had been calmly observing from the center of the camp. Although there were a lot of wild beasts outside, there were only four.

He had heard that the beast tide had occurred in the Tianping Mountains a long time ago. When they appeared, almost all of the savage beasts in the Tianping Mountains would charge out under the command of the demonic beasts. How could they be the three mere savage beasts in front of them?

It was hard to believe that the wild beasts would swarm over like the waves of the sea. They were afraid that the moment the beast tide arrived, they would be submerged in the sea of beasts.

This bald middle-aged man was currently the person with the highest status among the group, and also the most powerful one in terms of strength. He believed that even though this monster horde was ferocious, once death reached a certain point, it would naturally retreat. Thus, he ordered everyone to form a defensive formation and didn't even consider trying to break out.

If this was only a normal beast herd attack, then the damage would undoubtedly be minimized. However, the current situation was very special, how would he know that Zuo Feng had killed the two children of the leader? Right now, that giant wolf was thinking of revenge, so how could it easily retreat?

If this bald middle-aged man knew the truth, he would most likely go all out to find Zuo Feng, skin him alive and pull out some oil to light his Heaven Lamp. If he had chosen to sacrifice a portion of his men to protect himself from the horde of beasts and then desperately tried to break out of the encirclement, at least half of them would still have a chance of escaping alive.

At this moment, the huge pack of wolves started their attack from two directions, and the other three groups of beasts didn't dare to cause any friction with the pack of wolves, so they had no choice but to give up their positions in these two directions, and the encirclement of the camp was evenly distributed.

Zuo Feng stood on top of the tree and observed everything, but his heart was very conflicted. He hoped that the beasts would be able to kill all of the grey-clothed men, but he was also afraid that they would all die along with Teng Xiao Yun.

However, everything had already gone into a certain trajectory when he killed the two wolf cub. Even though he was the one who did it, he was unable to change his trajectory. Right now, he could only stand to the side and silently watch. The strength of either the savage beasts or the grey-clothed man was enough to crush him into dust in an instant.

The battle was extremely intense and cruel. In just the time it took to boil a cup of tea, two people had already been torn to shreds on the side of the grey-clothed man. On the other side of the horde, seven or eight wolves had also been killed.

Although there were more deaths in the horde than in the human warriors, the sheer number of deaths did not seem to reduce the number of the wild beasts. The wolves' crazy attacks seemed to have aroused the vicious nature of the other three groups of beasts, as they also started to attack more desperately.

When the grey-clothed man on the tree who was in charge of watching also entered the battle, the bald middle-aged man also gradually revealed an anxious expression. Things didn't go as he had expected. There were only two people beside him who had yet to enter the battle, but his subordinates were still suffering from injuries and deaths.

"The formation remains unchanged, shrinking inward. "The change in position will speed up for the next generation."

The bald man hurriedly gave the order again. This time, his voice was no longer as calm as it was before. It was no longer trembling uncontrollably.

Retreating the team would lower the momentum on their side, and it would also make the monster horde encircle them more tightly. It would also make it harder for them to break out of the encirclement when they were in a hurry. However, he had no choice but to issue this order, because only by shrinking the formation as a whole could the squads and squads take care of each other.

Although the faster change in position could increase the attack power on this side, the three members of the party wouldn't have much time to recover. This quick formation could be said to be a double-edged sword. If it could resist the attacks of the monster horde in a short period of time, it would be fine. However, without any backup over time, it would be very difficult to save the power to break out of the encirclement.

Zuo Feng observed from the tree, and he quickly figured out the strategy of the grey-clothed men.

He knew that this was also the bald man's last resort. Until now, the bald man still believed that if he killed any more beasts, he would naturally retreat.

'This might be the bald man's most serious miscalculation. This mistake will send everyone onto a road of no return! ' Zuo Feng thought in his heart.

Zuo Feng's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He then smiled, turned around, and gently leaped backwards. He could have jumped over a few trees with Zuo Feng's skill, but he still chose the nearest one carefully.

Although this was troublesome and slow, if the wild beasts below were to be alerted, then not only would all his efforts be wasted, he would also use his own life to help the gray-clothed man escape from this predicament.

Zuo Feng did not dare to approach the wolves from the side. Instead, he wisely chose to approach the group of beasts that he had attracted the first time. He knew exactly how sensitive those devouring wolves were, especially the giant devouring wolf. Seeing how crazy its attack was, he knew how much it hated him.

Very soon, Zuo Feng arrived at a place about seven to eight Zhang away from the battlefield. From here, the entire battlefield could be seen. He had already noticed that the group of grey-clothed people had withdrawn their hidden sentry from the tree, which was why he dared to stand so close to the tree and watch the battle with a swagger.

He could clearly see the changes in the battlefield from a close distance. Waves of wild beasts charged towards the gray-clothed man. Some collapsed to the ground from injuries, while some stepped on their comrades' corpses and rushed up to them once more, like waves crashing against a reef on the shore.

The reef could no longer be used to describe the gray-clothed men because their formation, under such intense attacks, was swaying like small boats on the sea, as if they could be submerged at any moment by the waves of a savage beast.

After the grey-clothed person's triangular formation sped up, everyone could only endure for two breaths of time before they were about to change. Such an intense battle had caused almost every one of them to die, but they didn't have much time to breathe, because the battle would once again turn into a frontline battle.

"So fierce, so spectacular."

Zuo Feng couldn't help but sigh. After looking at it up close, he was already extremely excited by this spectacular scene. If the bald middle-aged man were to hear the cause of this entire incident and see how spectacular this battle was, he would most likely be so angry that he would immediately spit out blood and faint.

'Is this a great battle that I've single-handedly created?

Zuo Feng thought this in his heart, and more or less admired his own ability. At this moment, the little beast appeared from Zuo Feng's bosom and curiously looked around the battlefield before immediately withdrawing.

There was no trace of calmness left on the bald middle-aged man's face. His face was twisted by nervousness and anger. Just a moment ago, he was wondering why the majority of the beasts had yet to retreat. However, soon after, he discovered that the defenses of his subordinates had gradually started to crumble from the assault of the savage beasts.

Previously, the two people beside him had no choice but to join the battle. Right now, he was the only one left unharmed, so it was almost impossible for him to break out of the encirclement.

"Ah …"

"Damn it, I can't take it …" "Ah …

One of the people in front of the group was already severely injured, but not long after he switched positions, they moved to the front again. This person was already exhausted and injured, but the moment he reached the front, a wolf rushed forward and tore off his arm.

His companion only had enough time to curse angrily. Before he could even finish his sentence, he saw his comrade being pounced on the ground by the wolf. Although the sword in his hand had already pierced into the wolf's body, the wolf ignored him and bit down on its head. An ear-piercing bone cracking sound could be heard, and the defenses were finally torn apart.

The bald middle-aged man had no choice but to rush forward to fill this spot. His strength was indeed tyrannical, even Zuo Feng couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air after watching from the tree. This person was probably even stronger than the Steward Wang who had ambushed him.

Fortunately, he didn't act impulsively. There were at least three people in this group who were only second to the bald man in strength. Plus, that tough bald man himself, it was no wonder that the Zuo Family Village couldn't hold out.

'As long as there's one remaining among these people, and this person still retains fifty to sixty percent of his battle prowess, then even I can forget about successfully bringing Master away! '

Right now, Zuo Feng was not in a good mood again. He was no longer worried about the extermination of the gray clothed man. Instead, he was worried that this group of wild beasts would not be able to deal any serious damage to these gray-clothed people. He raised his head and looked at the sky. Zuo Feng's face also became even more unsightly.

At this moment, the bright moon that had hung high in the sky for an entire night had already disappeared at an unknown time. Zuo Feng estimated that the sky would begin to brighten in about two hours. At that time, even if the wolves didn't retreat, the other three waves of beasts wouldn't want to leave during the day. They would definitely choose to retreat.

Zuo Feng frowned as he was deep in thought. He inadvertently raised his head to take a look at the situation in the arena. When he did so, his heart went completely cold. This was because the other three groups of beasts had finally started to stir after nearly half of them had died. This meant that they were about to retreat.
