Upon hearing this, Chen Nan was surprised.

He didn’t expect the vicious beasts to have come from here.

The environment here was quite dark, but he could still see a vague outline of the place.

The place extended in all directions. There was a waterway in the middle, and on the left was a wide road.

Above the waterway, an endless stream of water was flowing down, making water splashing sounds.

At every section of the path, one would see an intersection.

The place was connected to all parts of the city, even the suburb!

If the vicious beasts were here, it would be difficult to find their tracks.

Seeing this, Chen Nan couldn’t help but frown as he stared ahead.

It seemed that this matter wasn’t as simple as they had imagined.

On the contrary, it was very much more difficult than they had imagined.

Zhen Xuelan had the same thoughts as Chen Nan. Her face was grave as she looked at the tunnel in front of them.

“Let’s go ahead and take a look around for now,” Zhen Xuelan retracted her gaze and looked at the other three.

“But it’s hard to find anything here,” Luo Chengyun glanced at the surrounding tunnels. There were too many paths here.

It would be difficult for just the four of them to find the vicious beasts.

“Let’s look around first. If we really can’t find anything, we’ll have to let the City Defense Army take charge,” Zhen Xuelan said as her gaze landed on the ground.
She was trying to see if there were any traces left by the vicious beasts.

“Let’s go,” Chen Nan said as he walked in front.

He observed the surroundings and even observed the water surface carefully.

Hearing Chen Nan’s words, Zhen Xuelan and the other two followed closely after him.

Two hours later, they stopped.

“The current here is too strong and has washed away any traces of the vicious beasts,” Zhen Xuelan looked at the continuously flowing water and frowned.
The environment here was extremely beneficial to the vicious beasts.

Not only was it easy for the vicious beasts to hide, but it also made it for them difficult to find them.

“Looks like this exploration is going to be fruitless,” Luo Chengyun sighed heavily.

Hearing this, Chen Nan looked a little regretful, but he didn’t say anything.

He had accepted the mission because he wanted to obtain evolution points by killing vicious beasts.

He hadn’t expected for them to be stuck here, which had made it so that he hadn’t killed any vicious beasts thus far.

Fortunately, although he hadn’t killed any vicious beasts, they would still be rewarded with quite a sum of Alliance Dollars for the mission.

“Let’s go,” Zhen Xuelan glanced at the unchanging sewer and said.

She sighed in her heart as she turned around and returned the way they came.

Seeing this, Chen Nan left as well.

The other two followed closely behind.

However, Chen Nan had only taken two steps when he felt the ground tremble slightly.

It made his body be unstable as well.

‘The other three were experiencing the same. At this moment, they were supporting themselves against the wall.

This was because the trembling was becoming more and more intense. It was even producing “bang, bang, bang” sounds.

Chen Nan and the others looked towards the source of the sound and saw a huge vicious beast walking towards them.

‘With every step it took, the ground would tremble.

Other than that, there were also several vicious beasts following behind it.

‘The scene was like a boss bringing his lackeys to fight.

Seeing this, the expressions of the four changed slightly.

Weren’t there too many vicious beasts?!

Furthermore, there was even a low-rank silver grade vicious beast!

Before they could retreat, the silver grade vicious beast led the few bronze grade fierce beasts and slowly walked towards Chen Nan.

It was calm and unhurried.

It was as if Chen Nan had fallen into the net they had weaved and could not escape.

When he saw these beasts, Chen Nan had already seen their data.

The one at the front was a low-rank silver grade mutated Double-tailed Rat with an ice attribute.

Behind it were some high-rank bronze grade Giant-eyed Fishy Rats with water and poison attributes.

“You guys run first, I’ll cover the rear,” Chen Nan did not even turn his head as he said this, his gaze fixed on these beasts.

Although these vicious beasts had supposedly ingested contaminants, they did not seem that way.

After all, contaminated vicious beasts were all extremely violent. Weren’t these vicious beasts too normal?

The more they were like this, the weirder it was!

However, it was a good opportunity to use these vicious beasts to test Xiaochi’s strength.

He wanted to see where Xiaochi’s bottom line lay.

“No! You’re coming with us,” Zhen Xuelan immediately refuted his suggestion.

She could tell the strength of these vicious beasts.

Even if Chen Nan could kill a high-rank bronze-grade beast, he wouldn’t be able to defeat the vicious beasts that were heading towards them.

Not only was it because of their strength, but also because of their numbers.

‘With Chen Nan’s strength alone, he would probably be eaten in less than five minutes.

Although these vicious beasts looked calm on the surface, from the aura they emitted, one could tell that they had ingested contaminants!

With this, they couldn’t possibly allow Chen Nan to face them alone!

“That’s right, Chen Nan. Although you’re quite strong, don’t try to play the hero at this moment,” Luo Chengyun looked at Chen Nan with a grave expression.
Qing Yunshi didn’t say anything, but her eyes seemed to be telling him not to be all bravado now and that his strength alone wasn’t enough to fight against them.
“Let’s go. It’ll be too late if we don’t leave now,” Zhen Xuelan’s expression was very serious. She reached out and wanted to pull Chen Nan’s hand to take him with her.
However, Chen Nan avoided her hand and said, “Leave this to me.”

Aconfident smile hung on his face.

Although these vicious beasts were indeed a little difficult to deal with, Xiaochi had the Phoenix bloodline.

Just the effect of the bloodline suppression could make them unable to move.

“We won’t let you face them alone. Let’s deal with them together,” Zhen Xuelan’s expression was a little helpless.

At this moment, she was evaluating in her heart.

With Qing Yunshi’s strength, her contracted beat could deal with that low-rank silver grade vicious beast while the three of them should be able to deal with the bronze grade vicious beasts easily.
After all, Chen Nan was also very powerful.

“I think it’s plausible. The four of us aren’t weak. If our division of labor is clear, we can totally eliminate these vicious beasts,” After thinking for a while, Luo Chengyun also agreed with the suggestion.
Although these vicious beasts were very powerful and outnumbered them, they were not weak either. After all, just Chen Nan alone could kill a bronze-grade vicious beast.
Besides, Chen Nan’s contracted beast had looked very relaxed back then. It seemed that it had not reached its limit yet.

He wondered how many and at what level would the vicious beasts have to be for Xiaochi to feel some challenge.

Luo Chengyun could not help but start to look forward to knowing the result.

Qing Yunshi, who was at the side, did not say anything. Her eyes were filled with determination.

She was full of confidence in her Swift-riding Wolf.

After all, the highest-leveled vicious beast on the other side was at the low-rank silver grade, while the Swift-riding Wolf was at the high-rank silver grade!
Seeing this, Chen Nan was a little helpless, but he did not say anything.

He immediately summoned Xiaochi from the beast space.

Inan instant, a scarlet light lit up the place, and a powerful pressure followed.

‘The temperature in the surroundings gradually rose, and the flow of the air froze.

Even the flowing water stopped, and the water on the path evaporated.

The powerful pressure made it difficult for all the vicious beasts to move.

They couldn’t even touch Chen Nan, who was so close to them..
