My carefree life in space

Chapter 98 Solving the Beast Tide

"You mean, I chased those small animals away?"

"Drive them away?" Lin Shushu and Mo Ze looked at each other in silence. What was a matter of life and death for humans was just a gesture of impatience for Cangwu.

"Yes, I finally managed to recover a bit of my divine soul and was able to condense it into a phantom, but then I found that my territory had been occupied by countless small beasts. When I got angry, I used my power to drive them away," Cangwu said nonchalantly.

It turns out that Cangwu was also caught in the space tunnel when he was besieged. When he was stranded on this planet, he did not die immediately, but he found that there was no spiritual power to help him recover from his injuries. In fact, the air contained an aura that made him very uncomfortable.

So, he used his last bit of spiritual power to search several planets, but unfortunately, he found no place where spiritual power existed. On his deathbed, he returned to the place where he had first fallen, sank himself into the lake, and set up a barrier to prevent him from being disturbed by the outside world.

He didn't know how much time had passed, perhaps ten thousand years, but he finally managed to condense a wisp of his divine soul, which could then leave his body and come outside.

Upon emerging, he discovered that the burial ground he had chosen was inhabited by countless small beasts, which greatly angered him. So he released his aura to drive away these annoying creatures.

It's important to understand that the oppressive aura of a divine beast is something that ordinary beasts cannot withstand. Even though he is now only a remnant soul, he is still more than capable of driving away these low-level beasts. This led to the beasts' uprising.

Little did he know that what he considered a low-level beast was, in the eyes of humans, a very dangerous alien beast.

After listening to Lin Shushu's explanation of the whole story, Cangwu felt a little embarrassed. Although he was a divine beast, he was not so indifferent to human life.

Besides, their clan would eventually transform into human form, and he still had a favorable impression of humans. Otherwise, he would have made his move after Mo Ze entered the heart of the forest, instead of waiting until Mo Ze attacked the barrier.

"So what do we do now?" Mo Ze asked for his opinion.

"I can withdraw my pressure, but you'll have to send those small beasts back." Cangwu felt that he had already made a big concession, so he would reluctantly let those small beasts live outside the central area of ​​the forest, since that was where they originally lived anyway.

Lin Shushu and Mo Ze also knew that it was already quite remarkable that he allowed the strange beasts to live beside his bed.

"Yes, thank you for your understanding, senior." As long as the beasts are no longer driven away, the beast tide will not easily form, and it will not have a significant impact on humans. As for sending the beasts back, Lin Shushu is confident in this.

As the two took their leave, Cangwu wanted to say something, but ultimately remained silent. Forget it; he was now just a remnant soul, and who knew how long he could last? Spiritual power was of little use to him anymore, so what difference did it make whether he knew where it was or not?

As soon as Cangwu's oppressive aura ceased, the strange beasts that were still running out of the forest immediately sensed it. They stopped and carefully monitored the surrounding atmosphere, and the terrifying sense of oppression was indeed gone.

The strange beasts stopped running out and returned to their lairs.

Outside the forest, the battle continued. The vanguard of the beast tide was quite large, and the human warriors were still struggling to keep up.

After slaying another strange beast, Fang Hongzhang wiped the blood splattered on his face and looked towards the forest with some worry.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the number of strange beasts coming out of the forest seemed to be decreasing.

Hopefully, his feeling was right. They were already struggling to stop the strange beasts here. If more came, they would have to consider abandoning this planet.

"Look, there are two people in the sky." Someone looked up and saw Lin Shushu and Mo Ze standing in mid-air.

The person who was speaking was tapped on the head by the person next to him. "What time is it now? You still have the mind to look around. Don't let the monster tear you apart." After saying that, the person shielded him from the monster's attack.

The person who was being reprimanded felt wronged, but he also knew that his comrade was doing it for his own good, since being distracted on the battlefield was a death sentence.

Taking advantage of a lull in the fighting, he glanced at the sky again. The two people were still there. He shouted excitedly, "I didn't lie to you. There really are two people in the sky."

Lin Shushu then invaded the spiritual sea of ​​the strange beasts below with her divine sense, controlling their behavior. Mo Ze did the same, but he used mental power, achieving a similar effect.

The warriors below, who were fighting the beast, were surprised to find that the beast, which had been ferocious just moments before, had now put away its claws and revealed a docile expression in its eyes.

These anomalies were quickly noticed by everyone. They stopped what they were doing, and the beasts did not continue to attack them. Instead, they turned around and, as if given a command, lined up and walked towards the forest.

This scene left everyone speechless.

At that moment, a loud shout rang out from the quiet arena, "It was them! They lured the beast away!"

The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw a soldier pointing to the sky. Following his finger, they saw Lin Shushu and Mo Ze.

At this moment, the two were controlling the strange beast to walk back, and had no time to pay attention to the others.

Fang Hongzhang also saw the two of them. His gaze fell on Mo Ze, and he felt that the man's figure was somewhat familiar.

As he tried to recall where he had seen it before, a list came to mind.

"Mo Ze," it's him! Yes, it's him!!

Fang Hongzhang became excited. Only Marshal Mo, who possessed 3S mental strength, could make the strange beast obediently return to the forest.

But who's with him? It seems they're acting together. Good heavens, when did the Empire acquire a 3S-level mental power expert, and a woman at that? They kept it a secret for far too long!

If Fang Hongzhang knew that the woman in front of him was the suspicious person the Lin family had asked him to find, I wonder what he would think.

He was so excited that he wanted to call out Mo Ze's name, but not knowing what Mo Ze was planning, he had no choice but to swallow the two words that were on the tip of his tongue.

He's completely lost his composure as the commander-in-chief; he's now a total fanboy of Mo Ze, practically ready to wave the flag and cheer.

Everyone else present looked at the two people in the sky with admiration; they were their saviors!

They knew perfectly well that they had just exhausted their strength, and it wouldn't be long before the beasts broke through their defenses and rushed into the human settlements.

When they were exhausted, these two people appeared and rescued them from danger. Isn't that a life-saving grace?

They all speculated about the identities of the two men, but unfortunately, Mo Ze did not often appear in public. Even when he had to appear, he would disguise himself, so apart from Fang Hongzhang, no one recognized him.

As for Lin Shushu, there's even less to say. Very few people know her, and even if members of the Lin family come, they wouldn't believe that this is the same poor girl who was locked up in the small courtyard.

After all the strange beasts retreated back into the forest, Lin Shushu and Mo Ze did not stay behind; they flew away immediately.

"Doesn't this scene look familiar to you guys?" someone in the crowd said.
