Chapter 262: Do You Want to Live? At the Brimstone Base, upon knowing that the Hoarfrost King was arriving, the nine Divine Realm martial artists all came to welcome him personally.
However, after the cabin door of the airship opened, a too-young martial artist walked out. They continued anticipating, but after waiting for a long time, they still did not see a second person walk out of the airship.
Could this young martial artist before them be the Hoarfrost King? Wasn’t he a little too young?
Although the Hoarfrost King was an expert who was titled King and was famous in the martial arts circle, he kept a very low profile. Few people had seen his true face, and even his images were rarely circulated.
The nine Divine Realm experts in the Brimstone Base all looked at each other. They had never seen the Hoarfrost King before, and naturally did not know if the person in front of them was the Hoarfrost King. However, apart from the Hoarfrost King, who else would come to the Brimstone Base at a time like this?
Hence, even though this martial artist in front of them looked a little too young, these Divine Realm martial artists still braced themselves and stepped forward to bow respectfully. “Hoarfrost King, you are finally here. If you take any longer, our Brimstone Base wouldn’t be able to hold out.”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere chilled. The “Hoarfrost King” before him seemed unsmiling. His expression was also a little cold, and he appeared like a glacier.
“I’m not the Hoarfrost King!”
After a long while, the young martial artist spoke coldly, and denied the identity of the Hoarfrost King immediately.
“Not the Hoarfrost King? How is that possible?”
The expressions of the nine Divine Realm martial artists changed drastically. Why wasn’t it the Hoarfrost King? Who would pilot a private airship to the Brimstone Base at this time, if not the Hoarfrost King?
This was not a tourist attraction. Even Meta-divine Realm martial artists would not want to come to the Brimstone Base now, because once they did, they would very likely be courting death.
“Then who are you? Did the higher-ups send you in lieu of the Hoarfrost King?”
The nine Divine Realm martial artists were somewhat anxious now. If the Hoarfrost King wasn’t coming, a Meta-divine Realm martial artist had to come. If not, how could their Brimstone Base hold the line of defense?
Beep-beep-beep.
At this moment, the communicator of the Divine Realm martial artist in the lead rang. He hurriedly picked it up.
“What? The Hoarfrost King encountered trouble along the way. The other line of defense has been breached. What should we do?”
“There are no other Meta-divine Realm martial artists. They want us to hold out on our own? How are we supposed to hold out?”
“Hold out for ten hours… We won’t even be able to hold out for an hour!”
The Divine Realm martial artist at the base immediately hung up. The veins on his forehead were bulging, and his eyes were bloodshot. He looked a little sinister and terrifying.
“How is it, Liu?”
“The higher-ups aren’t sending Meta-divine Realm martial artists?”
Faced with the questions of many martial artists, the person-in-charge of the base shook his head. His face was a little ashen as he took a long look at Lin Feng and said, “The Hoarfrost King was ambushed by the robots along the way. Another base has been breached, and we are very likely to become a lone army! Even if the Hoarfrost King can escape, it will take 10 hours. The higher-ups don’t have any extra Meta-divine Realm martial artists to reinforce us.”
“Therefore, we can only rely on ourselves now!”
As soon as the person-in-charge finished speaking, everyone erupted.
Without reinforcements, how long could they hold out for? An hour or half an hour?
For a moment, everyone’s faces were ashen, and they lost much of their fighting spirit.
If the other base was really breached, it would be difficult for them to even escape.
The person-in-charge looked at the apathetic young martial artist before him and asked in a low voice, “Who are you? Why did you come to the Brimstone Base?”
Thinking about how he had mistaken such a young martial artist for the Hoarfrost King, he felt a little angry. How could someone so young be the Hoarfrost King?
“I’m Lin Feng!”
“Lin Feng?”
The name was very familiar.
Suddenly, someone recognized him.
“Lin Feng from the Global Martial Arts Competition?”
“I think it’s really him.”
“What is he doing here?”
Lin Feng’s current reputation was even greater than that of a King. After all, the Global Martial Arts Competition was a global competition. More than 80% of the people had watched the competition. How could they not recognize Lin Feng?
Previously, they had not thought from this perspective and mistook Lin Feng for the Hoarfrost King, so they failed to recognize Lin Feng.
“Lin Feng, you’re not from the military faction. What are you doing here?”
Lin Feng looked at the situation outside the base. There were densely packed robots everywhere, almost like an apocalypse. However, he had not heard any news outside.
This meant that there was a news blackout!
The military faction alone definitely would not dare to block the news like this. Then, the news blackout must be the joint decision of the five factions.
He had found out that the last coordinates of his second brother Lin Hai’s communicator were at the Brimstone Base.
“Do you know Lin Hai?”
“Lin Hai? So what if we know him? So what if we don’t? You’d better leave now. You’re not a martial artist from the military faction. It’s not too late to leave now.”
The person-in-charge of the Brimstone Base shook his head and smiled. They could barely protect themselves now. Why would they care about Lin Hai?
Lin Feng glanced at the martial artists behind. He did not believe that no one knew Lin Hai. After all, this was where Lin Hai’s communicator signal disappeared in the end.
“Do you want to live?” Lin Feng suddenly asked.
“Live? Who wouldn’t want to live? But what’s the use now? The Hoarfrost King isn’t here, and there are no Meta-divine Realm martial artists. Who can let us live?”
Many martial artists shook their heads.
“Tell me where Lin Hai is, and I’ll make sure you live!”
“You want to use your airship to transport us away, right? But how many people can you transport? Moreover, we are soldiers and have to obey orders. The order from above is to defend the base! No one will leave, and no one dares to leave!”
That’s right. If they could leave, they would have done so long ago. However, the higher-ups had not given the order to retreat. They were soldiers, and could only hold out, even though they knew that the price of holding out was death!
“Tell me about Lin Hai, and I’ll take care of the trouble at your base!”
Lin Feng looked at the densely packed robots outside. These robots would probably be able to breach the Brimstone Base in less than half an hour. At that time, everyone in the Brimstone Base would die.
“Take care of our trouble? You?”
Clearly, no one believed it. Lin Feng was only a Metamorphic Realm martial artist. At most, he could be considered a genius. Forget about Metamorphic Realm martial artists, even Divine Realm and Meta-divine Realm martial artists might not be able to resolve their current troubles, let alone Lin Feng.
“Lin Feng, I know about Lin Hai! I also know that you’re his younger brother, but… you’d better leave quickly. I think Lin Hai’s spirit would want you to stay safe, too.”
Suddenly, a Metamorphic Realm martial artist walked out of the crowd and looked at Lin Feng with a complicated expression.
“Huh? You know about my second brother? Tell me, tell me everything!”
Lin Feng’s figure flashed, and he was before this Metamorphic Realm martial artist in almost a blink of an eye. He emanated a tremendous pressure, instantly making the nine Divine Realm martial artists feel oppressed.
