Forbidden Zone of the Human Race

“Master Fang, please calm down. Marsh City developed the cure for the berserk beasts and I’ve ordered my men to quickly go and retrieve it. With the strength of the rescue team, there should be no problem even if they fought against the Octoviolet Silversnake.”

Fang Zhenyuan sighed. He had no choice.

On the other side, in the outpost, Li Yunfei was building a defensive perimeter around it. He wasn’t sure why, but just as they were about to leave a small-scale beast horde appeared. They weren’t afraid of the beasts, but they needed to protect their vehicles. If those were destroyed, they would be trapped in the area.

“To think that beasts would appear just as we’re leaving. This is too much of a coincidence!” Li Yunfei was standing at the entrance waving his axe, killing all of the beasts that came too close. Thanks to the battle with the Kaiser Aurumsaur, his strength had increased. The fastest way to improve was indeed through life-and-death battles. If he were to meet another Kaiser Aurumsaur, he had the confidence to fight alone, even if he wasn’t sure if he could kill it or not.

Six’s voice was transmitted through the microphone. “Leader, I found traces of the cult members. It must’ve been them!”

“Those bastards! Are they stalling for time?”

“What should we do?” Fang Rou was extremely worried. If they were delayed, what about the operation to save Fang Hao?

“Don’t worry, Fang Hao should still be alive. If he wasn’t, they wouldn’t be trying to stall us.” He was somewhat right. Why would the cult need to stall them if they could just destroy the entire outpost?

What they didn’t know was that, high up in the hills, there was someone wearing the mask of a bird. His codename was Bird, a tier four martial artist of the Seven Deadly Sins. The hierarchy in the cult was very clear. Those who were tier four and above had the privilege of wearing the mask of an animal as a sign of prestige.

“My lord, everything’s ready. We can start anytime.” A member walked up to him and confirmed that the radio and RPG were all set.

Bird nodded and laughed like a maniac. “I wonder how the tier seven martial artist reacted when he saw the video. Maybe he’ll rush over to kill us. How exciting.”

Looking at how deranged Bird was, the cult member was too afraid of speaking out loud. “Yeah, my lord is the best.…”

“Then let’s quickly start. Wasn’t there someone who got famous because of a livestream? We should get famous, too, so more people can recognize us. Then we can spread our influence even more. Don’t you think so?”

The cult member was sure that if Bird wasn’t wearing his mask he would be smiling ear to ear. He shakily answered, “Yes my lord, you’re very wise. Shouldn’t my lord come and introduce yourself?”

“Hmm, you have a point, but let’s wait till when there are more people in the livestream before we begin.”

Back in the city, more and more people were paying attention to what was happening in the wilderness because of Xiang Ning’s livestream a few days ago. There were now a couple of livestreams dedicated to the battles. Now, many of them knew about the dangers of the wilderness, as most of the martial artists that were streaming died during their filming, causing their livestreams to abruptly end.

As for today, a regular office worker in the North Star City was lazily scrolling through the live screams before he found the wilderness section. One of the titles caught his interest.

“Seven Deadly Sins destroying an outpost.”

“Interesting.” He clicked into the livestream. It was unique, in the sense that most of the livestreams were focused on hunting and killing. This one stood out because it didn’t involve any killing.

When it started, he was stunned by what he had seen.

The scene was being replayed throughout China. One hundred, three hundred, five hundred, one thousand, three thousand.... The number of people was steadily increasing.

“What’s this? Is this the wilderness?”

“Probably. Looking at the trees and number of beasts there should be no mistake that it’s the wilderness.”

“But what’s the meaning of the title? Seven Deadly Sins? Destroying an outpost?”

“I’m interested too. Maybe it’s fake?”

When there were five thousand people in the livestream, the video shifted and they all saw a man wearing a bird mask.

“Hello everyone, I’m Bird, one of the members of the Seven Deadly Sins. Just as you’ve seen in the title, we’ll be destroying an outpost.”

With his appearance, everyone thought that he was joking.

“Please tell me you’re joking?”

“Nah, the beasts ain’t real bro.”

“Yeah, it should be easy enough to use CGI.”

Bird almost shouted at them for not believing his words. While he couldn’t hear them, he knew they were clearly mocking him.

“Huh? You don’t believe me?” He looked around as if he was searching for something before whispering into the camera, “Let me tell you a secret. The daughter of a tier seven martial artist is currently in the outpost. What was his name again? Fang Zhenyuan? Let me introduce his daughter to everyone after we destroyed the outpost.” He then put up an act. “Shh… you guys didn’t hear anything. Hehe.”

But who cared what he was saying. The daughter of a tier seven martial artist?

That was a piece of explosive news.

Tier seven martial artists were the pinnacle of human strength, and every single one of them was a hero of humanity, including Fang Zhenyuan.

Imagine you are a secret cult that's trying to destroy civilization and you got the nickname 'Bird'

Also livestreaming? That would just make MC more famous lmao.
