Chapter 374: Beast Tide
Over the next few days, Yan Yu walked around the city and looked at the stores like a girl going to the shopping mall. She checked out all sorts of possible shops and was delighted with the variety of items that were sold in the stores as it was so much better than the little shops in her village.
Yan Yu bought a black cloak that could cover her completely, set of lightweight armor, new swords, HP and MP potions, and hundreds of bottles of low-quality jade to store the blood she had stored in wild beast leather handbags which she created during her journey.
After spending the days walking around the city and buying things, Yan Yu saw as it was the life of someone who lived in the city, the experiences were totally different from those she lived in the village. She began to imagine that many young people left the villages and never returned to try to live this kind of life.
Some of these young people may have become accustomed to this life and never wanted to return while others died during the journey, or during the missions.
Yan Yu left the city wearing the black cloak as she did not want to attract attention from other groups with her blood skills, but inside the cloak, she was with a happy face. She accepted the mission to hunt Black Bears and other wild beasts, beasts were between levels 35-60.
Looking at the map and the information she collected, the area where these bears live was a location that had creatures between levels 30-40. This was not considered dangerous for Yan Yu, because of her new items, she had a great ability to survive.
The place where bears live was a large frozen forest the size of a large country, the forest was divided into several areas with different creatures living in it, the deeper the forest, the stronger the creatures will be and the colder it will be.
The bears were five feet tall when it was standing, the hair was extremely thick, and the threads looked like sharp needles, the claws had sharp nails six feet long. These bears were rather territorial and always attacked those who invaded.
Yan Yu was on level 54, with only a sword stroke, she could only cut off the bear's fur and cause a small wound. Whenever she made a cut on the bear, the damage was superficial and only one line of blood came out. It showed how strong the defense of these bears was.
But it was this line of blood that Yan Yu needed, after making several cuts on a bear's body, she used Blood Manipulation to drain the blood from the wounds, when the bear lost a lot of blood and became weak, she used the ability of Blood Weapons to create a blood sword piercing the bear's body. The sword created by the skill was far more powerful than the sword Yan Yu had bought in the city.
As Yan Yu's mission did not have time to complete, she slowly explored the forest, during the course she encountered several different groups, but as her goal was to venture, she did not bother them.
Yan Yu has been exploring the forest for five years, she went to the other danger zones. As all the missions she took were to hunt the creatures that live in the forest, she stayed to level and hunt.
In those five years, Yan Yu leveled dozens of times and reached level 89, her abilities also leveled a few times. What surprised her most was that her vitality was the statistic that increased mostly because of the class.
A new ability was received after it reached level 80, it was called Blood Absorption, this ability allowed Yan Yu to absorb other people's blood to recover faster. It did not matter if it was people or creatures, any blood could be absorbed.
She would have to be careful not to use this skill in front of people, for it was extremely dangerous. This kind of skill was very rare, and many wanted something of that kind. But for the sake of Yan Yu, she never had to use the absorption ability, as it was never necessary, at least until the present moment.
The journey back to the city was extremely easy, as Yan Yu was much stronger than the creatures on that side of the forest, but that journey still took two years. While she was walking back, Yan Yu heard weapon sounds crashing.
Walking to the battle site, she saw that there were two groups, the two sides were in equal numbers, so the battle was at a standstill. Since Yan Yu had no vision skills, she could not see the information of any of them.
Yan Yu did not mind this scene, during the five years of travel through the forest, she saw thousands of scenes similar to this. And in all situations, Yan Yu did not intrude, she wanted to remain discreet for now. But before she could leave the place, one shouted.
"Hey!!!!!!!! You who are hiding in the forest, you could help us? We will give a good reward!!!!!!"The person who seemed to be the leader of one of the groups shouted, to try to end this deadlock, he was willing to pay something to someone else.
"If you help us, I'll pay double what they offer!" Shouted the other leader, he feared that if Yan Yu intruded into battle, he would be defeated.
"I apologize, but I will not accept any offer, because I do not have time for this. If I were you, I would leave immediately from this forest and return to the city, for a great tide of wild beasts is going towards the city. "When she had finished speaking, Yan Yu began to run, she was just passing by out of curiosity, but the scene she saw was the same as always, so she did not care and left.
The warning was only to help in the defenses of the city because it was always nice to have more people to help. But she did not know if those two groups would believe her words or not.
Yan Yu saw a great tide of wild beasts in a place quite far inside forest when she was coming back, she saw when she climbed a tree and heard strange noises and when she looked at the place, she saw gigantic beasts leading hundreds of thousands of creatures.
The two groups were shocked at Yan Yu's words, but they did not know if it was true or not, they even stopped fighting over it. But before they could do anything, they received messages through the device.
Hearing the message, they realized that Yan Yu's words were true. And they started running at full speed toward Snow City.
