A little more than half a day later,
After multiple teleports, the two finally bypassed the cannon fodder army and arrived behind the ferocious beasts.
This area was already close to Western countries, indicating the terrifying numbers of the cannon fodder army.
"The numbers are at least hundreds of millions, if not more..."
Chen Shu's eyes showed a trace of solemnity.
This was only the number of cannon fodder on Blue Star. After all, ferocious beasts had another offensive route, which was the异空间 (yì kōng jiān)!
If both were combined, the number of cannon fodder would be immeasurable.
Not only in terms of high-level combat power but also the sheer quantity of low-level cannon fodder, ferocious beasts and humans were indeed not on the same scale.
In the past, when the ferocious beasts were not united, humans still had the strength to fight back, but now that they were all united, the difference in strength was immediately apparent.
"Yeah, it's a pity my poison can't be mass-produced..."
Da Li also sighed.
It wasn't a simple task just to destroy the cannon fodder army before them.
In addition to this, ferocious beasts also had Golden and Silver level main legions, as well as some elite legions with terrifying bloodlines. Those were the truly fearsome aspects of the ferocious beasts.
"Alright, the old man might have a way to deal with it, and we humans are not weak either."
Chen Shu waved his hand and looked forward, muttering to himself,
"Be careful, I've sensed a dangerous aura."
With that, he once again replenished Da Li and Rabbit with an invisibility potion and headed deeper into the ferocious beasts.
Da Li raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you looking for something with a purpose?"
"The ferocious beasts' treasury."
Chen Shu did not hide it and chuckled, "Find an opportunity, see if we can steal the treasury, that would definitely shatter the Beast Emperor's mindset."
The two arrived on the back of a Golden-level sea bird, observing their surroundings.
The number of ferocious beasts here had decreased, but their strength was quite terrifying, at least Golden level, definitely the elite of the elite.
"No treasures..."
The two moved against the flow of the ferocious beasts and passed through the vast beast army, but still found nothing.
Chen Shu frowned slightly and said, "It's a bit hard to find..."
"I don't think the treasury is on Blue Star. It's likely in the 异空间 (yì kōng jiān)."
"Makes sense, but there are too many 异空间 (yì kōng jiān) in the oceans of Blue Star..."
Among the Beast Emperors, the wealthiest was the Canghai Shark Emperor, but its treasure vault was also the hardest to find, as it had no fixed location.
"Let's give it a try."
The two turned directly and plunged into an 异空间 (yì kōng jiān). It was much quieter inside, and they didn't see any cannon fodder armies.
Just then,
Chen Shu's gaze shifted, and the two immediately stopped moving.
In the sky ahead, black fish of all sizes floated, the smaller ones being a hundred meters long, looking extremely imposing.
"Golden-level Black Spirit Great Fish?"
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow, a hint of strangeness in his eyes.
The Black Spirit Great Fish were massive, definitely top-tier among their peers, but their combat power wasn't very strong. They were more useful for transportation.
As expected, the Black Spirit Great Fish were covered in a type of red seaweed, swaying in the wind...
"It's Red Fragrance Seaweed!"
Da Li's eyes narrowed, and he recognized it instantly. "There's so much of this stuff."
"Huh? Is it some kind of beast-taming material? I don't remember it."
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback, then a greedy glint appeared in his eyes.
As expected, was the harvest coming?
"No."
Da Li also shook his head. "It's an unranked ingredient with no special uses, but it has one special function: its energy is abundant. One jin of seaweed can support a ferocious beast's actions for ten days to half a month."
"Fodder?"
Chen Shu was initially uninterested upon hearing 'unranked,' but after Da Li's explanation, he instantly understood.
"It seems so now."
Da Li nodded. "After all, such a large cannon fodder army, crossing the globe to attack China, requires a considerable amount of energy."
Chen Shu sighed and said, "Let's go, this thing isn't worth much."
"Go where? Chen Pi, isn't this a ready-made opportunity?!"
Da Li, however, licked his lips and looked at the Black Spirit Great Fish ahead, a murderous glint in his eyes.
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback. "You want me to cause trouble here?"
"Of course! If we destroy all the Red Fragrance Seaweed, won't the cannon fodder army be unable to move?"
The cannon fodder army was still about ten days away from the mainland of China. They would likely need to eat again in the meantime.
Chen Shu frowned and asked, "This is a self-defeating act..."
Destroying the opponent's Red Fragrance Seaweed could indeed shatter the Beast Emperor's mindset, but he himself would gain nothing, as this thing was not valuable.
"Isn't our goal to mess with the ferocious beasts' mindset?"
Da Li smiled faintly. "Such a good opportunity, are you really going to miss it?"
"..."
Chen Shu pondered. His primary objective was naturally the ferocious beasts' treasury, but it seemed difficult to find the Shark Emperor's treasure in the vast ocean.
"Alright! Let's do it!"
With a thought, he instantly summoned Er Ha and approached the team of Black Spirit Great Fish ahead.
In just a short while, over a hundred Black Spirit Great Fish had passed, indicating the immense size of the convoy.
With a teleport, Chen Shu and the two arrived at the very front of the Black Spirit Great Fish convoy.
This was already another 异空间 (yì kōng jiān).
The leading Black Spirit Great Fish was a thousand meters in size, covered in dense Red Fragrance Seaweed.
Its eyes were lazy, and it exuded the aura of a Golden Three-Star, moving carelessly forward.
Just then, its body stiffened. As if receiving an order, it stopped in place.
"Roar!"
At this moment, a mermaid about ten meters tall appeared on its back.
The mermaid's eyes held confusion and vigilance as it scanned its surroundings, seemingly sensing something was amiss.
In the next second, a glow appeared in its eyes, and it began searching for anything suspicious, centering on itself.
It was actually a Golden Monarch with a special bloodline, its strength equivalent to a peak King-level expert!
As a transport fleet, it naturally had guards.
Its search skills spread out, but it found no enemies.
At this moment, an invisible Er Ha had quietly approached within ten meters of it.
"Ao ao~~"
Er Ha smiled wickedly, opened its dog mouth, and instantly spat out various elemental skills.
Boom boom boom!
The Mermaid Monarch was startled and instinctively erected a water screen, forcefully blocking Er Ha's skills.
Enemy attack! Enemy attack!
In an instant, panic erupted throughout the Black Spirit Great Fish convoy. High-level ferocious beasts flew off their backs.
They didn't rush to kill Chen Shu, but guarded nearby, lest any changes occur.
"Human contracted spirit?!"
The Mermaid Monarch spoke human words, surprise in its eyes.
It hadn't expected anyone to bypass the beast army and raid their rear.
"This also failed?"
Chen Shu sighed. He had hoped to kill the Golden Monarch instantly with the invisibility potion, considering it a minor gain.
But the opponent's strength exceeded his expectations.
Chen Shu muttered to himself, "No time to waste, I'll let you go today!"
In the next second, Er Ha's body re-entered stealth and disappeared from its original position.
Roar!
Countless Black Spirit Great Fish roared, filled with unease and fear.
Naturally sensitive, they realized they had been targeted!
