Chapter 149

Lin Moyu smiled slightly and couldn't help but pat Ning Yiyi on the head. "Are you tired? Let's take a break. We'll eat something before moving on."

"Okay, okay!"

Ning Yiyi's little tummy growled in agreement.

After starting a fire, Lin Moyu also learned how to roast meat.

Shi Xingan had taught him, along with various seasonings.

The meat used was beast meat bought at the exchange, and the quality was quite good.

Eating the meat Lin Moyu had roasted himself, Ning Yiyi's eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

"Will you roast meat for me from now on, okay?"

Lin Moyu laughed softly, "Okay."

At this, Ning Yiyi smiled even more happily.

She leaned lazily against Lin Moyu, gazing up at the starry sky.

On the Elemental Plains, there was no fog, and the stars filled the sky.

Compared to the brightly lit metropolises, the starry sky here was much brighter.

Just like Ning Yiyi's heart at this moment, it was beautiful.

…

At the edge of the Elemental Plains, the scenery changed abruptly.

The ground turned pitch black, and black mist continuously emerged from the ground, dissipating into the air.

The air was filled with the scent of decay.

Abyssal power spread here, strands of it trying to invade the Elemental Plains.

Odd-looking Abyssal Monsters wandered here.

They glared covetously at the Elemental Plains but could not enter.

It seemed they were afraid of the Elemental Plains.

Lin Moyu watched the Abyssal Monsters, recalling the information he had seen in the library.

There are two types of Abyssal Monsters.

One is the Demon Kings and Abyssal Demons he had seen before.

They have intelligence and can think, similar to the Human World.

The other type is the monsters before his eyes.

Just like the wild monsters seen everywhere in the Human World.

They possess only faint intelligence, or even none at all.

These are known as Abyssal Monsters.

On this land near the abyss, there are both Abyssal Monsters and Abyssal Demons.

Whether killing an Abyssal Demon or an Abyssal Monster, one earns military merit.

However, Abyssal Demons grant more military merit, while Abyssal Monsters grant less.

The Abyssal Demon Dog that Lin Moyu had killed before was a type of Abyssal Monster.

Killing a Level 31 Abyssal Demon Dog only earns 1 point of military merit.

The Level 35 Abyssal Monster before his eyes only earns 1 point of military merit per kill.

But if one kills a Level 36 Abyssal Demon, one can get 100 points of military merit.

The difference is huge.

The mission given by Bai Yiyuan was to kill Abyssal Demons, not just Abyssal Monsters.

Stepping out of the Elemental Plains, he entered the territory of the Yuan Battlefield once again.

Because it is close to Fortress No. 3, this place is called Battlefield No. 3.

The area Lin Moyu had visited before is called Battlefield No. 1.

The fog enveloped them again, and it was thicker than at the entrance of Fortress No. 1.

This is the power belonging to the abyss; the closer one is to the abyss, the thicker the fog.

Ning Yiyi took off her elemental mask and took two breaths. "The smell of the abyss, it's not pleasant!"

The scent was filled with the smell of decay, and she didn't like it.

Lin Moyu didn't like it either, but he couldn't escape it; he could only adapt.

Sooner or later, he would have to face the abyss, or even kill his way into the abyss.

This is the responsibility of a human Professional.

The arrival of Lin Moyu and Ning Yiyi attracted the attention of nearby Abyssal Monsters.

Immediately, several monsters rushed towards the two.

Skeleton Warriors appeared and met them head-on.

[Abyssal Man-Eater]

[Level: 35]

[Strength: 6000]

[Agility: 5000]

[Spirit: 3000]

[Constitution: 6000]

[Skill: Roar]

Named Abyssal Man-Eater, it is a very common type of Abyssal Monster in the abyss.

Its attributes are only slightly higher than the Abyssal Demon Dog and far inferior to a Level 36 Abyss Dog Demon.

This is a bottom-tier monster.

Such bottom-tier monsters are said to be endless in the abyss and simply cannot be killed off.

With crushing force, the Skeleton Warriors finished them off in two or three strikes.

[Killed Level 35 Abyssal Man-Eater, EXP +175000, Military Merit +1]

[Obtained Man-Eater's Claw.]

There was no surprise, just 1 point of military merit.

And that was only 1 point of military merit for killing two Abyssal Man-Eaters.

After all, half of the military merit had to be shared with Ning Yiyi.

Ning Yiyi tilted her head, revealing her fair, slender neck, and joked, "Bringing a burden like me, not only do you have to share your EXP, but you also have to share your military merit. Do you regret it?"

Lin Moyu just patted her head and didn't say anything.

Everything went without saying.

Here, Abyssal Man-Eaters were numerous and everywhere.

Lin Moyu also saw many Professionals hunting monsters here.

Although each monster only granted 1 point of military merit, accumulating little by little was also a good choice.

At least safety was guaranteed; as long as one didn't go deeper, there would be no danger.

Here, the most dangerous thing is encountering an Abyssal Demon.

Abyssal Demons have the ability to command Abyssal Monsters.

With one command, the surrounding monsters will all come over and besiege the human Professionals.

Most human Professionals choose to stay close to the Elemental Plains.

Once there is danger, they can flee into the Elemental Plains.

Neither Abyssal Demons nor Abyssal Monsters dare to enter; there is something in the Elemental Plains that they fear.

Only those with full confidence in themselves, or squads, would go deep into Battlefield No. 3.

They would even specifically hunt for Abyssal Demons to earn military merit.

Such people are also known as Demon Hunters.

Lin Moyu summoned 5 Skeleton Warriors to clear the path ahead.

There weren't many monsters on the road, and in any case, they were killed in two or three strikes, so there was no difference between 5 skeletons and 50 skeletons.

His direction was the deepest part of Battlefield No. 3.

The place where the fog was thickest and closest to the abyss.

If any Abyssal Demon were to appear, it would be here.

Battlefield No. 3 is huge; the two walked for half a day before they barely crossed the central area of Battlefield No. 3.

Once past the central area, the number of Abyssal Monsters increased significantly.

At this time, Lin Moyu summoned 5 more Skeleton Warriors.

After passing the central area, the number of human Professionals had greatly decreased.

Those who could operate here were either squads or Demon Hunters with great confidence in themselves.

Ning Yiyi said softly, "I don't know when we'll encounter an Abyssal Demon; those guys hide deeper than rats."

Lin Moyu looked ahead and said indifferently, "We will encounter them."

Military merit was increasing little by little; the speed was really too slow.

In half a day, the two's military merit had only increased by 50-something points.

That meant they had only killed a total of over 100 Abyssal Monsters.

Lin Moyu's gaze grew increasingly solemn; he felt that there was a problem ahead.

There was intense energy fluctuation.

Suddenly, a ball of light exploded in the sky.

"A distress signal! Something happened ahead!"

Chapter 151: Your Screams Will Be the Best Seasoning

The distress signal exploded in the sky like a bright moon, illuminating Battlefield No. 3.

Even the thick fog could not block it; it was clearly visible for dozens of miles around.

"It's not far, let's go."

Seeing the distress signal, Lin Moyu and Ning Yiyi rushed over immediately.

Regardless of internal competition or fighting to the death, that is a matter within the Human World.

On the battlefield, when encountering a distress signal, nearby Professionals will all come.

This is the rule, a rule that all Professionals abide by.

Only by working together can the human race survive under the threat of the abyss to this day.

The distress signal was not far from Lin Moyu, only a few minutes away.

"Moyu, something's wrong; the monsters here are all gone."

Ning Yiyi realized something was wrong.

Ever since they passed the central area, the number of monsters had started to increase rapidly.

Now, as they hurried along, they hadn't seen a single Abyssal Monster.

Immediately after, a sharp laugh came from the fog.
