Chapter 455: Chapter 283: Battle Against a Seventh Order Strongman_1

The Mutated Cheetah, after killing a Lava Giant, didn’t pause at all and immediately charged towards the nearest fierce beast.

This fierce beast had witnessed the entire process of the Lava Giant being killed and was, at this moment, stricken with extreme fear.

While it rushed towards its companions, it stretched out its arms to shield its head, trying to dodge this calamity.

But, unfortunately, all these efforts were in vain.

The speed of the Mutated Cheetah was too fast. At full burst, its speed reached 20 times the speed of sound. For such short-distance movement, it was almost no different from teleporting.

The fierce beast had just lifted its arms, and had only taken one step back when it suddenly felt sharp claws slicing through its arm.

The protective layer of keratin on its body, which had notable defensive power, was sliced open as easily as a block of tofu.

Those claws, containing a massive force it couldn’t resist, instantly cut through its skin and flesh, shattered its bones, and ultimately, severed its entire arm.

The drilling pain instinctively made the fierce beast cry out in agony.

But its voice was forever trapped in its throat, for in the next instant after its arm broke, its neck was bitten through by the Mutated Cheetah.

All it could muster was a weak, breathy sound as it collapsed powerlessly to the ground.

In the brief moment before it fell, the lingering glimmer in its eyes followed that streak of Yellow Lightning as it already bolted towards its next comrade.

What’s more, there was more than one such "Yellow Lightning" on the battlefield.

In its final moments, the fierce beast couldn’t help but think that they might suffer a disastrous defeat in this battle.

Indeed, that’s exactly how things unfolded.

This Mutated Cheetah was just a microcosm of the entire battlefield.

The Combat Power erupted by the other Mutated Tigers, Mutated Lions, and Mutated Giant Pandas wasn’t much less formidable than that of the Mutated Cheetah.

Especially the Mutated Tigers and Mutated Lions, being top predators, had their hunting instincts etched deep into their bones.

Every pounce, every bite, was executed with crisp efficiency.

As a result, the killing was done with extreme haste.

The speed at which they killed these Forbidden Area Creatures was simply incomparable to that of the herbivorous animals like the Mutated Buffalos on the first line of defense.

These top predators, in just under 30 seconds since they commenced their assault, had each slaughtered almost 10 Abyssal Creatures.

In other words, the 150 top-tier animal combatants, consisting of Mutated Tigers, Mutated Lions, and Mutated Cheetahs, had already killed more than 1500 Abyssal Creatures.

And even though the Mutated Pandas weren’t killing as quickly, in just half a minute, they nearly hunted down 250 Abyssal Creatures.

Which means, the 200 Mutated Animals on the second line of defense had killed 1750 Abyssal Creatures in half a minute.

At this point, the number of Abyssal Creatures in the second defense line hadn’t surpassed 20,000, yet in just half a minute, they had nearly decimated a tenth of them.

With such a terrifying efficiency in slaughter, how could the human fighters on the second line of defense not take notice?

To be honest, when they saw new Abyssal Creatures entering the fray, they were quite panicked.

Especially when the Lava Giants, ablaze with flames, charged in, many felt a chilling sensation on their scalps.

The Evolutionists were even somewhat desperate. They dared to rush up and hack at the Mutated Beasts and Mutated Black Crows.

But who would dare to hack at these Lava Giants? That fire wasn’t a joking matter. In their perception, its power was not much less than that of a Sixth Order Fire Attribute Superpower User releasing their Fire Ability.

Didn’t they see even the Mutated Buffalo, with defensive power many times greater than theirs, burnt and burst by those flames?

But just when they were starting to feel despair, the elite animals that suddenly entered the battle exhibited such terrifying Combat Power that it completely surpassed their imagination.

It was almost a matter of instant killing!

At the same Sixth Order Peak, not a single one of those Forbidden Area Creatures could withstand even two moves.

In just half a minute, the previously shaky defense line had steadied, and their pressure greatly diminished.

Before, they still needed to consider how to kill these Forbidden Area Creatures as quickly as possible.

But now, they were without pressure. It didn’t matter if they couldn’t win; they just needed to hold on.

As long as they could hold on, when these elite animals arrived, a couple of swipes would finish the job.

Fang Ziyuan glanced at the fierce beast whose head had fallen in front of him, took a couple of breaths, and for the first time, had an opportunity to rest.

Suddenly, he sensed something and hurriedly looked up, just as a Crowman fell from the sky right above him.

He quickly dodged to the side but then realized that the Crowman wasn’t coming to attack him.

The creature’s head appeared to have been penetrated by something sharp, dead beyond dead.

He promptly looked up. Then he saw a significant change in the sky—the battlefield above.

Previously, the bird army from Dragon Hall had been under constant pressure.

Even with the vast numbers of Mutated Yellowjackets joining in, they could only just manage to hold the line, yet occasionally, the Crowmen would break through their defense.
