Gods: Civilization Cultivation, Infinite War

Chapter 141 Return to the World of Behemoths
"Thank you for your hard work these past few days, Mr. Hawke."

After returning to the world of giant beasts, Eric looked at the tired-looking five-star hunter Hawk and said with a smile.

"You're finally back. If you hadn't come back, we would have really had to ask the Holy Angel Legion for support."

Hawke said weakly at this time.

Although he had a premonition when he arrived at this base that the next few days would not be easy.

After all, this was a huge army composed of hundreds of thousands of pure extraordinary people, which was completely unprecedented in his knowledge.

Even if the Hunter Association's wealth was emptied, or even if all the intelligent life forms in the world were united, they would not be able to gather so many extraordinary people.

So many extraordinary people suddenly descended upon this world and occupied the territories of some giant beast tribes as their bases.

This will of course cause a large number of giant beasts to counterattack, which is why they have been attacking the base.

Just like the Hunter Association needs to face the same problem when it opens up more living space for intelligent life.

However, the Hunter Association has extensive experience in dealing with behemoths and knows how to minimize the intensity of such attacks.

In addition, when the Hunter Association was opening up a living space, its own size was completely incomparable to this army of hundreds of thousands.

Therefore, in Hawke's hundreds of years of experience, it can be said that he has never experienced such an exaggerated attack by a giant beast.

Countless giant beasts were attacking the army’s base like a tide.

It even includes a large number of wild beasts.

This kind of wild beast that has completely regressed to its ancestral form is difficult for other hunters to easily deal with except Hawk, a veteran five-star hunter.

Even Hawke himself would feel very exhausted when facing some top-level wild beasts.

This kind of high-intensity battle will not last forever.

But after each battle, he also needs some time to recover his strength.

But during these few days, Hawke had very little time to rest.

Every time we finally repelled the attack of the giant beast, before we had time to catch our breath, the next wave of attack would follow.

In just a few days, his physical strength was almost completely drained.

Fortunately, there were no giant beast kings around, so he could barely hold on against those top wild beasts.

If there were still a giant beast king like the King of the Near Sea, he would have asked for support from the Holy Angel Legion long ago.

After agreeing to cooperate with Eric a few days ago, Hawke and a group of hunters who provided support to the Glory Expeditionary Corps completed the teleportation through the Sky City.

During this process, many of the things he witnessed completely overturned his cognition.

A city that can move in the air, and that kind of incomprehensible space teleportation.

All these things were unheard of and were constantly refreshing his cognitive limits.

If these things were still something incomprehensible, what they brought to Hawke was more of a novel feeling.

Those beings called holy angels brought him absolute shock in the true sense.

In his perception, every holy angel is at least comparable to a senior hunter.

The so-called senior hunters are the real pillars of the Hunter Association.

Because only experienced hunters have enough strength to leave the safe zone and explore outside.

Every time the Hunter Association expands outward, it is not to wage war against the giant beast tribes outside the safe zone without any basis.

Experienced hunters must first gather sufficient intelligence and conduct a comprehensive assessment of areas outside the safe zone before deciding on the final direction of expansion.

Therefore, to a large extent, the number of senior hunters determines the expansion speed of the Hunter Association.

During his previous communication with Eric, Hawke also had a certain understanding of the so-called extraordinary system.

If hunters are regarded as a complete extraordinary system, then senior hunters are basically in the position of mid-level extraordinary people.

In the entire Hunter Association, the number of senior hunters is not abundant, and each senior hunter is a valuable asset to the entire civilization.

In any force, you can get great preferential treatment.

But in that city in the sky, holy angels comparable to experienced hunters are everywhere.

According to Eric, those holy angels are all born hexagonal warriors with extremely amazing talents in various fields.

There is no need for deliberate training. After reaching adulthood, every holy angel can be far more powerful than ordinary low-level transcendents.

After completing the job transfer to the corresponding extraordinary profession, you can become a mid-level extraordinary person in a short period of time.

Therefore, in the Holy Angel Legion, the minimum standard for those warriors is mid-level transcendents.

The backbone of the entire civilization on their side can only meet the minimum standards of the Holy Angel Legion.

No wonder Eric was so confident when he first met him that day. It turned out that this was his source of confidence.

According to him, what came to this world was just a title-level legion among the Holy Angel Legion.

But just such a legion can fight against legendary extraordinary people.

In the history of this world, there has never been a legendary hunter.

Including those forbidden lives, they only exist in legends.

The Hunter Association's records of those forbidden lives are very vague, and there are not even some corresponding characteristics and titles.

What is certain is that in this world, there are indeed some terrifying existences that can be called taboos.

In other words, when he was teleporting that day, he saw with his own eyes a powerful legion that was able to fight against the forbidden life in the legend.

Because of this, although these past few days have been quite difficult, Hawke doesn't feel too much pressure.

Because he also knew that even if he really couldn't withstand the attack of the behemoth, there would be the Legion of Holy Angels to back him up.

With the Holy Angel Legion as a guarantee, not to mention that there are no giant beast kings around, even if there really is one, it will not be a big problem.

After listening to Hawke's story, Eric's expression became a little strange, but he still nodded.

“The Holy Angel Legion is responsible for other tasks. Unless it is necessary, it is best not to bother them.

Anyway, you have been really hard-working these past few days, go and have a good rest."

Eric hadn't expected these hunters to be so honest.

They hadn't rested for several days, sharing a great deal of the pressure from the Savage Beasts for the Glory Expeditionary Corps. In fact, even after the high-level leaders headed by Eric left the Beast World, there were still a lot of high-level combat forces left.

There is no problem in withstanding the attacks of those giant beasts.

The reason why Hawke and the others were asked to provide support was, on the one hand, to fill in the gaps when Eric and the others left the Behemoth World and headed to the headquarters.

On the other hand, it is also to allow the two sides to have a preliminary contact and make some preparations in advance for in-depth exchanges later.

The latter is the key to this support.

The so-called filling of some gaps in defense capabilities actually does not have much significance.

Even before this, the senior executives headed by Eric rarely took action personally when facing attacks from giant beasts.

Just to make the hunters like Hawk who came to support feel a sense of participation, they were asked to join in the work of defending against the attacks of the giant beasts.

Although Hawke and his men knew that the army in this area had hundreds of thousands of soldiers, each of them was a true extraordinary person.

But Hawke and the others were not sure how many high-level combat forces there were.

Although this is not a secret, Eric would not be so reckless as to tell Hawke and the others all the information in detail, for he was afraid that they did not know him well enough.

Therefore, when Hawke and his men were assisting the Glory Expeditionary Corps in defense, they had no idea that there were still many high-level combat forces who had not taken action.

In addition, during this period, Hawke and his men were responsible for a separate area and did not have much communication with other soldiers.

So much so that the other warriors thought that these hunters were always in a state of ease and did not need their support.

After Eric returned to the world of giant beasts, his warriors expressed high recognition for the performance of Hawk and others.

Little did they know that Hawke's physical strength was almost reaching its limit after several days of fierce fighting.

It was only because of the need to save face and the lack of understanding of the internal situation of the Glory Expeditionary Corps that they had not proposed a rotation in defense.

If Eric doesn't come back, it will really be a joke.

"There's no rush. Since you're already back, we'll have plenty of time to rest later."

Hawke shook his head. The intense battles of the past few days had provided many hunters with the experience they needed to grow.

Such a good opportunity to hone oneself without too much danger is very rare for hunters.

Hawk himself also gained some extra benefits from the battles in the past few days.

A certain power hidden deep in the giant beast's bloodline was unearthed a little bit, and the strength that had not improved for decades showed some signs of breakthrough.

It was like a dead tree coming back to life, making Hawke, an old hunter over a hundred years old, feel his blood boiling, as if he had regained the passion of his youth.

Before, because Eric had not come back, he felt a little uneasy.

They were worried that their defeat would cause the Glory Expeditionary Corps to suffer additional losses, which would have a negative impact on the cooperation between the two sides.

Now that he no longer has this concern, Hawke is ready to enjoy the process.

Hearing this, Eric nodded and said, "Then it's up to you guys to arrange it."

The main reason why the Glory Expeditionary Corps chose this area as their base was for training troops.

Otherwise, with the life detection technology of the Sky City, even if they did not have enough understanding of the situation in this world, the Glory Expeditionary Corps would not have fallen into such a situation.

Hunters like Hawke wanted to hone themselves with the help of the giant beasts, and Eric naturally had no objection.

"By the way, why did you come back so soon?"

Hawke asked, suddenly curious again.

He also knew that Eric and the others left to go to the headquarters of the Glory Expeditionary Corps to attend the inauguration ceremony of the commander-in-chief.

But according to Eric, today is only the first day of the inauguration ceremony.

The inauguration ceremony of such a high-ranking figure should have some follow-up activities even if the corresponding procedures were completed, so it would not end so quickly.

"Something unexpected happened and we had to return immediately."

Eric's tone was calm, and his expression didn't reveal anything unusual.

This group of Behemoth World executives arrived relatively early and have been communicating with other executives over the past few days. They have almost finished discussing everything that needed to be discussed.

Originally, there were some activities after the ceremony so that the senior officials and the commander-in-chief could get to know each other.

But Eric didn't think the commander-in-chief was the talkative type, and he was afraid that they wouldn't be able to come up with anything to talk about for a while.

What's more, now other gods' clans and civilizations have descended on the world of giant beasts, which is the most urgent event at the moment.

In comparison, contact with the commander-in-chief can only be considered later.

As the top leaders of the entire Glory Expeditionary Corps, these senior officials will have plenty of opportunities to contact each other in the future.

Before Hawke could ask any more questions, Eric gave him a brief introduction to the current situation.

"So that's it..."

Hawke immediately understood what Eric meant.

When the public coordinates of each world appear in the City of Ten Thousand Gods, until its final ownership is determined, there will be at least several clan civilizations of the Blue Star gods competing with each other for this world.

During this process, these tribal civilizations also had different attitudes towards the indigenous civilizations in those worlds.

Some will exert a more gentle influence on those indigenous civilizations, making them willingly accept their rule.

Some will rely on their own powerful strength to enforce rule over those indigenous civilizations, and even if a rebellion breaks out, it will be of no avail.

These are some basic knowledge that Eric taught Hawke when he was communicating with him.

He didn't know what type of rulers the newly emerged extraterrestrial civilization had.

He only knew that the regional headquarters where he was located was actually tied to the Kingdom of Dawn.

Therefore, he didn't think much about it and said directly: "Then what should we do?"

Eric was a little surprised to see Hawke's reaction. He didn't expect that the other party could accept his situation in such a short time.

“It’s hard to say for now. Each god’s clan civilization has its own strategy when conducting external wars.

If we want to achieve ultimate victory, we must also make corresponding adjustments based on the opponent's strategy.

In short, the competition for the ultimate ownership of this world has officially begun."
