Chapter 349 Questions
The roaring gunshots resounded across the battlefield. However, the only ones that remained outside the city were the extermination squad.
Clovis managed to take down two out of three Tier 4 beasts. After killing the last Tier 4 beast, Clovis and the captain made their way back to the city's gate.
All the movements were coordinated so that they didn't have to open the gate longer than necessary.
Meanwhile, the extermination squad and the soldiers on top of the wall shot all their bullets, killing the rest of the beasts quickly.
Clovis and the captain hurriedly returned to the wall to check on the condition.
Inside the elevator, Clovis took a few deep breaths. He wasn't exhausted. Instead, he had calculated the time for his perfect state. He should be out of his perfect state any time soon.@@@@
It took him another fifteen seconds before Clovis abruptly lost his extraordinary senses. Even the captain noticed that his aura had become weaker.
The captain glanced at Clovis while thinking, 'It seems that he is exhausted. After going inside the elevator, he starts to relax, and all the fatigue strikes him at once. Still, we have to thank him. If I fight those Tier 4 beasts with another person, I don't think it will be more efficient than him. His action and fighting style are specialized for killing.'
The captain couldn't help but remember what he said to Clovis back then. He was laughing inwardly because it didn't seem that Clovis would be 'tired' of working as an explorer any time soon. He had yet to see his limit.
Once they reached the top, they were greeted by several soldiers as well as the vice commander.
"Oh! We're done!" The captain nonchalantly waved his hand. He helped the military, but he wasn't a part of the military. So he didn't bother to salute.
"In that case, the first question is regarding the movements of the beast wave. You said earlier that the beasts usually spread in all directions."
"Indeed. This beast wave was weird because it didn't follow the usual pattern. I'm also confused about the reasons." Vista nodded with a serious expression.
"Can you think of one or two possible reasons? Just an assumption is fine." Clovis asked.
Vista didn't understand why Clovis asked such a useless question, but he thought for a moment and explained, "I can come up with two scenarios. The first one is because the beast wave is not natural. While it's true that we spot no humans among them, those people can just lure in the beasts of their choice."
"!!!" The captain suddenly understood why Clovis asked this question, considering his group was attacked. This attack might be related to it.
"The second scenario is that the beast wave is trying to achieve something. Yes, I still think that this beast wave is not natural. If I were them, attacking with a small beast wave like this would have a certain purpose. And that purpose must be related to the west gate. They have picked the beasts to spread them everywhere except for the west gate after all."
"!!!" It was Clovis' turn to be surprised. As expected of the vice commander, his wisdom and experience did provide good insight.
Clovis fell silent for a moment. "In that case, my second question is... what kind of beast wave can the city handle?"
The vice commander frowned. "We can handle everything. And I don't think I can answer that question in detail. However, I can give you a vague answer. Do you know about the five types of beast waves?"
"Yes. A beast wave is categorized into five categories based on their scale. Type 1 Beast Wave consists of a hundred beasts. Type 2 Beast Wave consists of up to one thousand beasts. The other three have limits up to ten thousand, a hundred thousand, and millions."
"Indeed. Do you know why they categorized it in numbers instead of tiers? If a Tier 9 beast suddenly comes, we won't be able to do anything, right?"
Clovis thought for a moment. "Because numbers change the way they fight? After all, if there are stronger or even stronger beasts, there will only be one pattern. Crushed."
