Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Wen Yu and the other three exchanged glances before following Walsey into the inner room.

The four people who had been summoned were all Sequence members!

Upon entering, Wen Yu's gaze immediately fell upon a beautiful woman standing in the room.

With silver hair and jade-green eyes, she looked like an Elf who had walked out of a movie. She was nearly 1.8 meters tall, her figure outlined by a white dress. Her long legs, faintly visible beneath it, were enough to make one gulp.

His second glance caught the swaddled baby in the woman's arms.

Continuous cries echoed from the bundle.

Before he could observe any further, Walsey's towering frame blocked his view!

SLAP.

A heavy hand smacked Wen Yu hard on the forehead. Against Walsey's overwhelming strength, Wen Yu's vision momentarily blackened.

"Soldier! Where do you think you're looking? This is the noble Princess of our Silver Moon Tribe. If not for the urgent military situation, you wouldn't even have the chance to see her face!"

What an injustice! Wen Yu fumed internally. I swear I absolutely wasn't ogling the Princess's long legs!

Seeing Wen Yu's disgruntled expression, Chu Ziling, who was behind him, burst into a hearty, carefree laugh.

SLAP.

Another crisp smack echoed out.

Unfortunately, Chu Ziling lacked Wen Yu's physical resilience. He tumbled to the ground and remained dazed for quite some time.

"Well, Walsey, are these the warriors you have found?"

A clear, melodious voice, like that of a songbird, rang out, causing Wen Yu's heart to flutter. His gaze involuntarily shifted towards the Princess.

Fortunately, Walsey didn't notice Wen Yu's subtle movement.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Hearing the Princess's words, Walsey immediately turned, bowed, and replied respectfully.

"Hmm, Lord Walsey, please explain the mission. I will wait for the warriors in the tunnel. We will set off when it gets dark."

The Princess nodded at Wen Yu and the other three, then exited through a small door behind her.

"Alright, everyone."

The moment the Princess left, Walsey instantly reverted to his usual arrogant and domineering demeanor.

"Let me briefly explain this mission."

"Ahem, let's start with the current situation of the Silver Moon Tribe."

As soon as he said this, Walsey's expression suddenly changed. As if he were a robot, he slowly began to relay the current situation.

It's not Walsey speaking now, but the Treasure Land Protector, Wen Yu realized with a start.

"The Silver Moon Holy City has endured the demon plague for twenty-seven years and is now facing its final stage."

"Ultimately, the Silver Moon Tribe could not defeat the Demon Tribe. Just yesterday, the outcome of the battle on the upper battlefield was decided."

"Sequence Number 1 of the Silver Moon Tribe has died in battle. Sequence Number 2 and Sequence Number 3 are facing over thirty Level 10 Ancient Demons; they have no chance of victory."

"To preserve the last spark of our Silver Moon Tribe, you have been entrusted with a glorious mission."

"Protect the Princess and the Fourth Prince as you travel to a location a ten-day journey to the east."

"The Dominator has established a sanctuary there."

"This is your ultimate trial!"

Wen Yu gulped.

"Did you all understand?"

The moment those words ended, Walsey reverted to his usual officer-like demeanor, shouting at Wen Yu and the others.

"We understand."

The group answered promptly.

"Very good. You are responsible for informing the group outside about the mission's content. In three hours, I will return to take you to the assembly point!"

With that, Walsey strode out, leaving Wen Yu and the other three staring at each other in stunned silence.

"Heh, this Guardian is certainly direct! 'This is your ultimate trial!' Damn it, as if you needed to tell us! We figured that much out already!" Chu Ziling grumbled indignantly the moment Walsey stepped out.

It was clear the unprovoked slap from earlier still bothered him deeply.

"I think it's better that he was straightforward. It saves us the trouble of guessing," Wen Yu said.

"So, do you guys have any plans?" William asked the others.

Wen Yu answered directly, "What other plan could there be? It's an escort mission. If gods block our way, we kill gods; if Buddhas block our way, we kill Buddhas. If we can't kill them, we die. What other plan is there?"

William seemed to seriously consider Wen Yu's proposal, then nodded decisively.

"You're right. In that case, I'll go organize the others."

William turned and left the room.

"Let's go out and find a place to rest for a bit too," Wen Yu said, heading outside.

"Wait," Chu Ziling called out.

"This time, I want to cooperate with you all."

Seeing Chu Ziling speak up with some hesitation, Wen Yu scoffed.

"You need to understand, this isn't about who follows whom. We all have to follow this so-called Princess. When she moves, we move. When she stops, we stop. Everyone is in this together."

"So, you finally realize I'm the one to count on, huh?"

With that, Wen Yu ignored Chu Ziling's awkward expression and strode out of the room.

Outside, William was explaining the mission to everyone else.

Seeing Wen Yu and the others come out, Burly Bear, Monkey, and Sun Aotian immediately drew closer to Wen Yu's position.

Behind them, Jiang Wentao was explaining the details of the escort mission to the others, while Wen Yu, squinting, meticulously recalled the Treasure Land Protector's words.

A sanctuary established by the Dominator, huh? If all of this is just a scenario fabricated for the trial, that's one thing. But if this all actually happened, then what role did this so-called Dominator play in the apocalypse?

And, judging by the Treasure Land Protector's appearance, this Flashing Bluestar is clearly deeply connected to him. What exactly are these Treasure Land Protectors?

In his previous life, Wen Yu had no contact with such matters. But now, as he encountered more and more, he grew increasingly perplexed about the truth of Earth's apocalypse.

The Blood Moon, the Demon Realm's Gate, the Demon Tribe, the Exchange Stone Pillar, the Dominator, the Treasure Land Protector...

「Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.」

With Walsey's arrival, everyone stopped their discussions and stood up.

"Follow me!"

Walsey finished speaking and headed outside.

Wen Yu and his team followed closely behind him.

Following Walsey through winding, narrow alleys, they soon arrived before a dilapidated residential building.

Walsey walked straight in, then stopped in an area that resembled a storeroom or warehouse.

"Go on in. The Princess and the Fourth Prince are inside. Once you're out of the city, protect the Princess and the Fourth Prince well."

Walsey paused.

"I hope you can all survive!"
