Chapter 179 City Wall

The morning sun was bright, and the staff in the entire breeding base began to work. The young gray spirit bears were playing on the grass, while the young violent bears, gray spirit bears, and rock armored bears were honing their skills and fighting each other in the woods.

Deep in the forest, at a forging base surrounded by a large breath-suppressing formation, thousands of violent bears began their daily forging work in full swing. The sound of iron hammering rang out one after another, and the heat from the furnace made the air scorching.

At this time, without the knowledge of all the staff in the breeding base, Ye Mo came back and stayed for one night, and then left under the leadership of his grandfather.

In Linghu District, on the northeast side, in front of the huge city wall, Ye Mo looked up at the scene in front of him, thinking about something.

This is a row of city walls that are dozens of meters high. They stand on the northeast side of the entire Linghu District and have resisted attacks from countless monsters and demons.

Wisps of spiritual light flashed on the city wall, which meant that extraordinary materials were used in its construction or it was reinforced by the skills of spiritual pets. Only in this way could the constructed city wall withstand the impact of a large number of monsters and demons.

This huge wall built in Linghu District was mainly built by my grandfather's company. I don't know how many times the old city wall had been destroyed before.

This is all thanks to those monsters and demons. Although their levels are not high, when their numbers increase, even such a huge city wall will be destroyed by them.

Ye Mo lowered his head and looked at the guards standing upright on the city walls. They were the main force to resist the invasion of monsters and demons.

Looking forward, groups of beastmasters were walking back and forth in the city gate from time to time. These were hunting groups from the Hunter Council or teams from the Beastmaster Association. They came here to accept missions, and most of those missions were officially issued, some to gather information, some to clear out the surrounding monsters and demons, some to find items, and so on.

Looking to both sides, some vendors also set up stalls here. Most of them sell some potions or recycle materials from monsters and demons.

After watching, Ye Mo followed his grandfather and walked through the gate of the city wall. There was a flat road in front of him. He could walk along this route to the next city wall.

In order to better and more safely protect the people of Linghu District, the entire Linghu District actually built three city walls on the northeast side, so that when the first wall collapses, everyone can retreat to the second wall in time and continue to resist the waves of monsters and demons.

Ye Mo had once curiously asked his grandfather why three city walls were built. If all the resources were used to build just one, wouldn't the defense be higher and better?

Grandpa's answer was very simple. There were not enough resources. Even if all the resources were used to build a wall, the defense capability would not be much different from what it is now. It could only withstand as much as it could, and it would not achieve a qualitative change. So it would be better to build three walls. Anyway, relying on their company, the reconstruction would be quick.

Besides the question of the city wall, Ye Mo had also asked his grandfather when he was little, why those monsters and demons attacked them. Could it be that eating humans really increased their cultivation? Or were humans tasty?
Hearing this, his grandfather's face was full of smiles, and finally he told him seriously that all the base cities built by the Yanhuang Alliance, as well as the Linghu District, small villages and other human settlements, used a resource that could give the entire settlement many functions such as a protective barrier.

But at the same time, it will also attract the invasion of monsters and demons, because this kind of resource is very attractive to monsters and demons, and even to beastmasters and spirit pets, because it is a good treasure that helps to improve cultivation and increase the probability of breakthrough.

However, the levels of this kind of resources vary. The low levels can only attract low-level monsters and demons, so their Linghu District has only attracted some commander-level monster invasions at most, and no more.

This is why many monsters and demons invade human settlements. Of course, this is only one of the reasons. There are some other reasons, which together lead to so many stupid monsters and demons invading them.

After walking all the way, Ye Mo followed his grandfather, passed through three city walls, and finally arrived at the so-called foreign land.

Although the secret realm I visited was also considered overseas, I didn’t see anything at that time, so it can’t be compared with here.

At first glance, it was a vast plain with very few weeds to be seen, and only vague figures walking back and forth.

"Xiao Mo, be careful on your way. Remember to run away if you can't win. Don't try to be brave." Looking at Ye Mo, Ye Ruitang said worriedly.

Although he still didn't understand why his grandson wanted to go to Qingxue Mountain, he had proven his ability, so he could only support him.

Looking at the empty scenery ahead, Ye Mo turned to look at his grandfather and said seriously, "Don't worry, Grandpa. I took on many missions back then at the Magic City Academy."

Finally, Ye Ruitang gave some detailed instructions, wishing he could tell Ye Mo all his experiences.

After a while, Ye Mo looked at the empty road ahead, turned around and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I'm leaving now."

Ye Ruitang nodded slightly and just watched Ye Mo walk forward step by step, getting farther and farther away from him.

……

"I didn't expect it to be like this here. The road is quite flat."

After leaving the last city wall, Ye Mo walked for a while, and the road was still flat. According to his grandfather, the area within five miles outside the city wall was a deep cleaning area. The terrain must be flat and there must be no debris that would block the view.

The area five miles away all the way to the Qingxue Mountain Ridge is a shallow clearing area. This area is mostly cleared by hunting groups and beastmaster teams. The powerful commander-level creatures here will be driven away by the authorities, and the only ones left are third-level and lower monsters and demons, which are just right for these hunting groups and beastmaster teams.

After all, Linghu District is a border area with a population of 800,000. There are not many fourth-level masters in it, but there are quite a few third-level senior beastmasters. Even if the official beastmasters such as the guards are removed, the number of hunting groups and teams formed by individuals or groups is not small at all.

Just like now, Ye Mo looked at the flat ground ahead, where a group of six people were laughing and chatting. After seeing him, they all walked towards him. Seeing this, Ye Mo started to investigate. There were five high-level beast masters in their thirties and one intermediate beast master at twenty-eight. Overall, it looked pretty good.

"Young man, are you out alone?" An enthusiastic man who looked to be in his thirties or forties walked over with a worried look on his face.

The other three men and one woman shook their heads when they saw this. The leader was always like this.

Seeing the visitor's question, Ye Mo said softly, "Yeah."

Grandpa said that once you leave the city walls, you must be vigilant against other beastmasters. The wilderness is no different. There are too many sneak attacks, robberies, and even murders. After all, the wilderness, where there is no signal, is a naturally disorderly place.

However, this place is too close to the city wall, and the strength of this group of people is average, so it doesn't matter if I chat with them for a few minutes.

"It's too dangerous for you to come out alone. This place is no joke. If you continue to go inside, your life will be in danger if you encounter a third-level monster." After hearing that Ye Mo really came out alone, the seemingly enthusiastic man frowned and warned.

It's not that he likes to meddle in other people's business, but mainly because one of his relatives had lost his life so recklessly. So when he saw this situation and the other person's young appearance, he couldn't help but give him a warning.

At this time, Bai You's words came over. When Ye Mo heard it, he didn't expect that this person was actually so enthusiastic and what he said was sincere.

"I know, but I'm actually quite strong, I just look younger."

After saying this, Ye Mo released his third-level aura, which startled the other six people. They obviously didn't expect that Ye Mo actually had a third-level cultivation level.

After seeing their reactions, Ye Mo said casually: "Then I'll leave."

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave. As for his exposed cultivation level, it wasn't really a reveal at all. How could his third level be the same as others' third level? Not to mention compared to this group of ordinary third level cultivators, even compared to the third level cultivators from top schools, his strength was still among the top.

"Wait, little brother, you're at such a high level, would you consider joining our hunting group? Our Black Bear Hunting Group is a well-known hunting group in the entire Linghu District. We have six people in the team and five high-level beastmasters. We are a genuine three-star hunting group."

"I see you're very confident in your strength, but those monsters won't listen to reason. They usually attack in groups. If you're alone, it's hard to handle. Why don't you consider our hunting group?"

Among the six people in the team, a thin-faced man who looked to be in his thirties had a smile on his face and kept talking.

"I know you may not trust us enough, but if you are interested, you can go to the Hunter Council with us. Then you can ask about our Black Bear Hunting Group. Then you will trust us."

After the thin-faced man finished speaking, the others began to persuade him, saying that this was a third-level beastmaster who acted alone and was still so young, so they should try to fight for it if they could.

Although there are many third-level beastmasters in Linghu District, most of them have joined hunting groups or teams. It is rare to see a newbie this time. He looks very green at first glance, so I definitely have to give it a try.

"Yes, little brother, I see you come out alone and you look so confident. You definitely don't come here for some materials to hunt monsters and demons. I guess you want to improve your strength through fighting."

"Our hunting group is planning to enter the Qingxue Mountains these days. The challenges there are definitely higher than here. Would you like to consider it?"

"Don't worry too much about safety. Our team has many experiences entering the Qingxue Mountains, and we know the routes very well."

The enthusiastic man who was the leader of the group said with a smile, crossing his arms. At this moment, his companions looked speechless.

You're actually going to Qingxue Mountain too. It's a pity that you're too weak, and it would be more convenient for me to go alone. After thinking about it, Ye Mo shook his head and gently refused: "No, I still prefer to act alone."

After saying that, Ye Mo left, leaving only the members of the Black Bear Team in the wasteland.

"Forget it, let's go back." The enthusiastic man said with regret, then walked back.

"Hmph, you dare to come out alone? Even if you are a high-level beastmaster, if you encounter several third-level monsters, you might die here."

"He's just a high-level beastmaster. He's so cold and indifferent, I'd think he's a master."

Listening to the thin-faced man and the only second-level female beastmaster, another older man shook his head and said, "Mind your own business. Why should we bother others?"

"Okay, let's go back quickly. This time we have gained a lot."

After listening to the leader's words, the others stopped discussing and walked towards the city wall.
