Free Web NovelChapter 559: Chapter 559: The Group Reunites
"Chase, we must chase, we do not admit defeat."
Jerry shouted first, after all, at this time if you don’t stir people’s hearts, perhaps soon someone will find a reason to give up.
The advantages of Base Alpha are great, as long as you stay, there are peak level 5 Fierce Beasts for protection.
Moreover, they can stay in Base Alpha forever. Even if no one completes the challenge in the end, they can stay and don’t have to go back.
If they continue and cannot break through to the peak level 5 realm, then within about a hundred days, they might go forth only to face death. Just like this time when they first arrived, 20 people died suddenly.
And they might end up like those 20 people, inexplicably dying before even beginning any action.
"Don’t admit defeat, do not give up until the last moment."
Someone shouted from the crowd.
Then immediately followed by others echoing the shout.
Don’t give up until the last one, but if at the last moment it still doesn’t work, then it’s okay to give up.
He felt this kind of slogan was without any issues.
Li Kang knew the thoughts of these people but couldn’t criticize anyone at this time.
As critiquing at this time might make those already wavering choose to give up entirely.
Originally, joining Xu Yi’s team was attractive in itself.
Ever since day one, Xu Yi’s team hasn’t lost a single member, not even one was eliminated. How could one not feel safe following Xu Yi?
Previously, Xu Yi’s team did not recruit, but now they clearly do.
Otherwise, who would have cultivated all those vegetable plots?
Of course, they were truly unwilling to give up so early.
Being able to persist for up to 500 days has many benefits.
Not to mention whether those 10 billion have any use or will be fulfilled.
The continuous enhancement of strength definitely makes them much stronger than those who give up.
Why did Cheng Jie and Liu Li remain at Base Alpha, while others did not? Isn’t it because their strength wasn’t enough, isn’t it because they had given up once?
Thus, for the sake of strength, they are willing to persist until they’re unable to continue.
They hurriedly chased on, their speed naturally incomparable to Fierce Beasts, but much faster than before, at least twice as fast.
Traveling equated to training, within these fifty days, they advanced through traveling.
This time, their gap was much closer than before.
Besides themselves, there were 33 people and two Fierce Beasts on the move.
These two Fierce Beasts were the Black Qilin and the Unicorn.
Now, the Black Qilin was even more majestic.
Because it had broken through to level 5, its strength surged immensely compared to before.
The Unicorn was still at the peak level 4 Fierce Beast, but it looked more majestic than before. Now the Unicorn was likely to break through to level 5 at any moment.
Led by the Black Qilin, those 33 eliminated individuals were also moving towards Base Alpha.
Perhaps, by the time they reach Base Alpha, they could break through to level 5 mages.
Xu Yi did not know, the Black Qilin upgraded to level 5 without his assistance.
At this moment, Xu Yi’s mind was solely focused on training.
Ever since he started this relentless training day and night, Xu Yi felt less lonely.
Because training increased his dopamine secretion, making him feel joyful, blissful.
A day swiftly passed by.
But Lu Ke and the others didn’t rest, continuing on their journey.
Because Lightning had already shown with its actions that Fierce Beasts can travel without sleep or rest.
Only stopping a few times along the way for meals, each break under 20 minutes.
If all goes smoothly, they would reach Xu Yi in less than 5 days.
"System, check-in."
Completing the check-in for day 259, Xu Yi had some jerky and continued training.
Since the progress wasn’t ideal, he needed to invest more time in training.
After all, there were still 20 days before claiming the next month’s reward package.
Now, without the weekly package, Xu Yi was not quite used to it.
Having claimed the ninth month’s weekly package, for the tenth month, the next challenge point had to be reached to claim it.
Xu Yi didn’t check the Star Chart, knowing from a glance last night that Lu Ke and the others were already on the move.
Training time flew by quickly.
Soon, Xu Yi completed the check-in for day 263.
Just as he was about to commence training, he suddenly heard a familiar call.
"Lightning?" Xu Yi gazed at the distant horizon, thinking it was the sound of Lightning.
Thus, he flew towards the sky.
And indeed, Xu Yi saw the figure of Lightning.
Moreover, there was a silhouette on its back.
"Lu Ke?" fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
"So soon, in only 5 days, they arrived?" Xu Yi said in utter surprise.
After all, beside Lightning, there was a Flying Beast, which should be Lu Ke’s Bai Yu.
Sure enough, as they approached, Xu Yi recognized the Flying Beast alongside Lightning was Bai Yu.
"Xu Yi."
Lu Ke called out joyfully, her eyes filled with delight.
Not seeing Xu Yi for so long, Lu Ke realized she had truly developed feelings for him.
For the first time, she understood what it’s like to miss someone.
In the blink of an eye, Lightning carried Lu Ke in front of Xu Yi.
But Xu Yi was already pounced on by Bai Yu.
Evidently, Bai Yu missed Xu Yi quite a bit too.
"Alright, that’s enough, enough." Xu Yi couldn’t resist Bai Yu’s enthusiasm and called a halt.
Lu Ke watched silently, with a blissful smile hanging on her face.
"Why did you arrive so quickly, without sleep?" Xu Yi patted Bai Yu’s head, feeling serene inside, akin to just using Purification Skills.
"The sleepless ones were our mounts, we did rest. Had we known their capability earlier, we would’ve arrived by your side sooner." Lu Ke explained and jumped off Lightning’s back.
"Knowing now isn’t too late, if not for Lightning, I wouldn’t know Fierce Beasts could travel relentlessly without sleep." Xu Yi chuckled, glancing at the distance.
Xu Yi already saw Qin Fan and the others, thus he returned to the ground with Lu Ke.
"Xu Yi!" Qin Fan jumped off the mount to embrace Xu Yi, then said, "Long time no see, you’ve grown much stronger, catching up with you is tough."
"You’ve gotten stronger too, old Fan." With that, Xu Yi patted Qin Fan’s shoulder.
The others also came one by one and hugged Xu Yi.
"Cheng Jie and Liu Li stayed at the camp, but Qin Yue and I still want to give it a try." Su Yan hugged Xu Yi then shared the situation.
Xu Yi nodded, not surprised to see Su Yan here.
Cheng Jie and Liu Li opting to stay surprised Xu Yi a bit, as he thought they all wouldn’t stay.
"Alright, you’ve been traveling for days, have a good sleep and then start training." Xu Yi felt they all looked fatigued and advised they catch some rest and sleep.
Lu Ke and the rest didn’t refuse, set up tents, and went to sleep.
Xu Yi stayed outside, as there were still numerous level 5 Fierce Beasts around, and if Lu Ke was attacked, she would be torn apart by the peak level 5 Fierce Beasts.
