The Mother of Bloodbath's voice suddenly rang in Lin Yuan's ears, causing him to feel more at ease. “Kid, as your Path Protector, I'll only care about your life and not anything other than that. However, you're considered courageous for wanting to fight against the insect tide under the dimensional rift.”

The Mother of Bloodbath suddenly became silent for two seconds before a strange female voice sounded again. “However, this Pinnacle Cla.s.s 1 Dimensional Rift is no joke to you right now. If you can get through it and defend against the insect tide, I'll give you the source-type item from this dimensional rift as a reward.”

When Lin Yuan heard the Mother of Bloodbath's words, he frowned.

Although Lin Yuan knew that this alien insect dimensional rift was Cla.s.s 1, he was unsure whether it was just an ordinary or a pinnacle Cla.s.s 1.

Now that the Mother of Bloodbath had said that it was a pinnacle Cla.s.s 1 dimensional rift, the grade of this dimensional rift could be determined.

Lin Yuan's heart tightened.

A Cla.s.s 3 alien insect would appear from a pinnacle Cla.s.s 1 dimensional rift as the swarm leader.

The combat power of a Cla.s.s 3 alien insect was comparable to that of a Gold fey, which also meant that the insect tide in Millstone Town would have at least one Cla.s.s 3 alien insect with a combat power comparable to a Gold fey.

This was utterly bad news for the five-member team and Millstone Town.

The alien insect dimensional rift was known as the most dangerous dimensional rift due to the countless alien insects gus.h.i.+ng out of it, just like a raging tide.

The sea of insects would turn any place barren wherever they went.

In a battle, they could kill spirit qi professionals and feys alive.

However, the pinnacle Cla.s.s 1 alien insect dimensional rift was not just simply a sea of insects for Millstone Town.

This was because a pinnacle Cla.s.s 1 dimensional rift's Cla.s.s 3 alien insect was akin to the power of a sharp knife for Millstone Town.

Lin Yuan asked the Mother of Bloodbath softly, “Mother of Bloodbath, if we can't stop this insect tide, can you step in to defend Millstone Town?”

Mother of Bloodbath's voice sounded again. “I'm an arachnid fey, not a human like you guys. I am only your Path Protector and will only save you before you get buried in the sea of insects.”

Then, the Mother of Bloodbath stopped talking.

Lin Yuan's question was buried by the autumn wind that whistled past his cheeks as he ran in the cool night.

He now did not even think about the so-called source-type lifeform reward. Instead, he clenched his fists and measured his power.

This battle would be the touchstone after the Jasmine Lily had evolved into a Fantasy Breed.

The alien insects that spewed out of the pinnacle Cla.s.s 1 alien insect dimensional rift were mainly low-grade alien insects comparable to Normal feys or lower than that.

Such alien insects accounted for more than 80% of the insect tide. The remaining 19% or more were just alien insects similar to Elite feys.

Among the higher-grade alien insects that accounted for less than the remaining 0.001%, the Cla.s.s 1 alien insects that were like Bronze feys made up most of this percentage.

Although this 0.001% seemed little, it was really terrifying given the numbers of the sea of alien insects.

Lin Yuan could not help but think of Red Thorn, which had evolved into Bronze.

However, when Red Thorn was evolving into Bronze, it had to grow new tissues and organs due to its exclusive skill.

After eating an enormous amount of flesh from dimensional lifeforms, Red Thorn had fallen into a deep slumber, storing up for the growth of its organs that would allow its combat system to be rebuilt.

Red Thorn had been sleeping for a long time, and Lin Yuan wondered when it would awaken.

If Red Thorn awakened, its newly awakened exclusive skill would simply be a weapon for ma.s.s destruction to the alien insect tide.

When Lin Yuan and the quartet reached Millstone Town's Guild Alliance branch, they realized that many spirit qi professionals had gathered there.

Based on their attire, most of these spirit qi professionals were some aborigines living in Millstone Town. Some came from other places to explore Millstone Town, and now they still chose to stay there.

At that moment, a steward-like person clad in a body of chain armor shouted, “Check the combat-cla.s.s spirit qi professionals who came to the Guild Alliance branch.” While he said that, sweat broke out on his forehead, and he looked unusually grave.

Soon, an old man stepped forward. “Sir! 1,325 registered spirit qi professionals in Millstone Town also settled down here. 215 of them had gone out, leaving 1,110 spirit qi professionals here!”

While the old man spoke, he looked at the combat-cla.s.s spirit qi professionals gathered at the side, most of whom had settled in Millstone Town.

In times of crisis, as a defender of Millstone Town—although the old man was so old that it would be strenuous for him to fight in a battle—seeing all the combat-cla.s.s spirit qi professionals in Millstone Town present to fight against the catastrophe, a proud feeling, and uplifting power arose in his heart.

This cohesive force was unique to Millstone Town. If every spirit qi professional was like a small tinder, the thousand of people gathered would have been a strong bonfire.

The steward-like man clad in chain armor was the president of the Millstone Town's Guild Alliance branch.

There was a hint of pride on his anxious face, but then he had a bitter smile.

As the Millstone Town's Guild Alliance branch president, how could he not know the limit of Millstone Town?

Among these more than 1,000 combat-cla.s.s spirit qi professionals, most of them had Bronze feys, while only a few dozen of them had Silver feys. Only one of them had a Gold fey.

In a small town like Millstone Town, such combat power was considered great as compared to other similar towns.

However, in the face of this sudden opening of the Cla.s.s 1 alien insect dimensional rift and the approaching insect tide, it was clearly too much.

At that moment, a voice deeper than the old man's shouted, “We're foreign spirit qi professionals who came to Millstone Town to provide healing and prepared to explore the Endless Forest. After summing it up, we have 113 foreign spirit qi professionals present, 87 with Bronze feys, and 25 with Silver feys. I have a Gold fey.”

The middle-aged burly man's words made the president of the Millstone Town's Guild Alliance branch feel more at ease. However, this middle-aged man then made his expression turn uglier.

“Among us 113 people, we only have one healing-type spirit qi professional who has a Bronze Spitting Turtledove. How many healing-type spirit qi professionals are there in Millstone Town?”

The president's face was covered with worry.

Healing-type spirit qi professionals were too valuable and in high demand everywhere. Therefore, few healing-type spirit qi professionals would stay in a small place like Millstone Town to develop.

In Millstone Town, with thousands of people, there were only five healing-type spirit qi professionals who were responsible for healing the thousands of people in the town.

However, only four healing-type spirit qi professionals had Bronze feys, while the other one only had an Elite fey.

Upon hearing him say the Spitting Turtledove, Lin Yuan subconsciously glanced at the crowd.

He surprisingly found the healing-type spirit qi professional who had previously been rejected in his application to join the four-member squad of the Extreme Guild Club.

Lin Yuan knew that such healing-type feys like the Spitting Turtledoves were relatively rare compared to other healing-type feys. They also had disgusting abilities that few would use.

It was indeed a small world.

Just as the president of Millstone Town's Guild Alliance branch looked worried, he heard a pleasant male voice. “To prevent world destruction and protect world peace, carrying out love and true—”

Before he could finish, a blonde-haired, valiant woman raised her hand and gave the tall and thin young man a heavy punch before she yelled tenderly, “Zhang Xiaobai, don't speak at this moment!”

Then, Xin Ying took two steps forward and said calmly and firmly, “We're a five-member squad with two power offense-type spirit qi professionals, one defense-type spirit qi professional, one support-type spirit qi professional, and one healing-type spirit qi professional. Please let us join the battle.”
