Chapter 180: Life Outside the City (2)


    Five chalks, controlled simultaneously by the witch, write down the now-recorded categories of out-of-town life on arge ckboard.


    Low-ranked beings only with some of the basic''s info.


    The training location that Han Dong and the others were heading to was 60 kilometers away from the Holy City, but it was still within the [Controble Range], the area that the Knights of the Holy City had already investigated.


    Of course.


    It was only ''investigated''.


    The area that humans could control was limited to the inside of the holy city.


    For outside the walls, even the side ofnd right next to the walls could undergo a huge change and suddenly arge number of scavengers could emerge from within.


    The farther away from the Holy City, the higher the danger level would be.


    That was why when Captain Kemun gave a distance of 69 kilometers, 10% of his personnel immediately left the scene right away.


    These people were not weak, but were unwilling to take such a huge risk during their apprentice knight-ship.


    The vast majority of the anomalies lingering in the area already investigated outside the city were low-ranked existences.


    Themon low-tier existences were divided into three broad categories, listed below.


    [Wild Monsters] - As higher life forms attacked the world, the total amount of wildlife declined rapidly by an estimated 90% (with the exception of some insects).


    The remaining wildlife has undergone gic changes due to various peculiar factors, or has been contaminated by filth and has undergone degenerative changes.


    Common wildlife changes fall into the following three categories.


    Aggregate - urs mostly with small wildlife, such as rats. This type of convergence wildlife has been seen many times within the Holy City, and there have been several incidents of ''swarms of rats'' in themon areas.


    First, some residents noticed arge number of rats moving in groups and attacking humans.


    Upon closer inspection, one would find that these rats were not acting in groups at all, their fur, and even their flesh and blood were all connected as one.


    When stimted, the rat pack can transform directly into a bloody maw and devour their target.


    Anthropomorphic,monly found in mammals.


    Take the [Werewolf], which is distinctly different from the werewolves in conventional folklore.


    A werewolf image is drawn on the board using chalk to represent its features.


    Quite a terrifying cambered spinal structure! Arge white spine protrudes from the body, with small tentacles growing between the crevices of the spine, suggesting that it has been heavily contaminated and modified.


    Arge number of wolf heads are also derived from the surface of its body.


    Shoulders, waist, abdomen, knees, and all over its body are simrly constructed with twisted wolf heads, capable of biting anything living thates close, several times more terrifying than the werewolves ofmon folklore.


    Matriarch - Rare mutant type.


    Very few nts and animals, after contact with a higher being.


    Through a longer period of degenerate evolution, it will diffuse into a highly reproductive matriarch.


    The matriarch usually upies an enclosed area, such as an abandoned vige or an underground cave. It reproduces its offspring indiscriminately within, and conceals the area through a kind of mist.


    Most of the females are at the level of Exotic Demons, and will not be encountered in a normal Knight Training.


    [Evil Foul]


    It mainly refers to some dead things that are affected by ''breath'', are given ''life'', and even produce independent consciousness (mostly evil).


    It''s quiteplicated to ssify the evil filth.


    Just the stone category alone can be divided into stone ghosts, moss stone demons, stone.


    The mostmon when ites to dead bodies Evil Filth.


    The probability of dead humansing into contact with the ''breath'' and turning into [Evil Filth] is the greatest, mostly skeletons, of course, it''s also different from the skeletons that ordinary people remember.


    In short, you should be a little careful with any dead things outside the city.


    [Human]


    This is the category that needs the most exnation, and is extremely threatening in its own right.


    Cults - The mostmon category, and a favorite method of human cultivation for the higher beings outside of the city.


    Cultivating ordinary humans into absolutely loyal cultists.


    As long as this group of cultists could meet certain requirements such as ''hunting'', ''sacrifice'', ''satisfaction'' and so on, they would be granted certain benefits.


    The cultists who received the benefits would also be more loyal.


    A single cultist was not a great threat, and even an ordinary trainee knight could easily take care of them.


    Special attention should be paid to locations where arge number of cultists live in groups.


    As long as the number of cultists exceeded double digits, the level of danger would increase exponentially, if not handled properly, it would be enough to cause mass casualties.


    Once they were made aware of the danger, the group of cultists wouldn''t even give it a second thought and would perform a mass sacrifice on the spot.


    Summoning a mid-level, or even a high level of terrifying existence.


    Furthermore, arge number of cultists gathered together for chanting would also cause great contamination damage to individuals from a spiritual level.


    A cultist is a group of individuals whose bodies and souls are still sound, but whose minds arepletely corrupted.


    Although they may still appear to be human, they are nothing more than a group of controlled puppets.


    Also, it should be noted that cultists are assigned to different groups. These cultists will be different depending on the high-level existence they belong to.


    Inhumans - Special individuals evolved by the cultists through ''self-sacrifice'', ''corruption'', and so on, and they still maintain their human posture.


    Within the cult, there is another name for the Inhuman - Elder.


    A very small number of cultists will undergo a high level of mutation during the process of worship.


    Thus, allowing themselves to break through human limits, no longer confined to their physical bodies, and deriving some extremely dangerous abilities.


    These types of cultists could switch between ''human posture'' and ''alien posture'' at will, thus hiding their own dangerpletely, and were an extremely dangerous existence.


    ording to records, the elite training gatherings in history that caused the most deaths of trainee knights were the Inhumans.


    They have evolved an independent and robust system of consciousness, sinister and cunning, and are absolutely evil and dangerous beings that must be paid special attention to.


    Insect Possessor.


    Before talking about this particr group, it is important to talk about how the insects behaved differently from ordinary animals when the New Era ushered in.


    This little group of invertebrate things did not undergo any odd changes simr to the [Wild Monster].


    Sensitivity, and inner discipline allow most insects to defend themselves in a very extreme way when they sense the ''end'' ising.


    Simr to breeding parasites, the same colony consumes each other, leaving only one near-king insect in existence.


    The remaining King Insects would still feel the danger.


    Therefore, they rushed to choose a suitable host to possess before the human race waspletely destroyed.


    Borrowing the potential of humans to continue growing, they tried to survive this apocalyptic catastrophe.


    Even so, they were still unable to fight against the [Exotic Demon] and higher existences.


    All of the insect possessors around the world were killed in the process of fighting it.


    The remaining small number of insect possessors had found a rtively safe ce to ''hibernate permanently'' before the Holy City was established.


    However, as the higher beings took over the world, the ''pollution'' also spread throughout the world.


    Even if they buried themselves deep underground, they could not escape the invasion of breath.


    During the hibernation period, they gradually decayed and degenerated, and gradually turned into a kind of independent insect colony that was not managed by any higher being.


    They retain some of the characteristics of humans and insects, but also due to the long period of contamination, their thoughts be extremely evil, and they will attack humans indiscriminately.


    Han Dong unconsciously looked at Mia beside him when he saw the introduction of the ''Insect Possessor'' on the ckboard.
