This vast, imperial-like abandoned factory must have been a renowned production center during the human era.
Lu Yan's mind echoed with the system prompt: "[The first batch of pollutants has entered orderly. It's worth noting that the surveillance in this factory is still operational.]"
[Many pollutants aren't interested in hunting right now because they're full, but they'll watch human deaths through surveillance for spiritual satisfaction.]
[Although you've encountered many unusual pollutants, I advise you never to have too many expectations for them. Even if they can still think, have emotions, and even resemble humans, they are merely higher-level life forms that prey on humans.]
[If humanity falls, the entire world will become a vast divine realm.]
Lu Yan looked up and saw the red light still emitting from the corner of the ceiling.
He raised his gun and pulled the trigger.
Though it was a handgun, the sound of the gunshot wasn't as loud as the explosion of the monitor.
The remaining two closed eyes on Ning Huai's face opened, and eight slender and sturdy spider legs extended from the connection at his waist, making his already disfigured face even more terrifying.
Bai Lang and Meng Hu also transformed. The furry tail behind their buttocks made Lu Yan unable to resist stealing glances several times.
"Split up," Ning Huai succinctly said, placing a Bluetooth earpiece in his ear. "One person in each direction. Support promptly if there are any issues, and maintain communication."
Lu Yan turned to look at Song Jingchen. "I can't protect you all the time. Hide yourself."
Song Jingchen obediently nodded.
This terrain was actually suitable for sniping. Unfortunately, it was too conspicuous to bring the sniper rifle in.
There were nearly five hundred humans and one hundred pollutants in the entire factory, not a small number, but it was difficult to encounter them in the short term due to the large area of this contaminated zone.
Fortunately, Lu Yan had the system. Almost as soon as he entered the factory, the system provided a detailed map of the area. The blue dots representing humans, green dots for teammates, and red dots for pollutants.
His own position was indicated by a black arrow.
In addition, at the bottom left corner of Lu Yan's field of view, there were rows of white text as prompts.
"[Familiar 154-OUT]."
Coincidentally, 154's position wasn't far from Lu Yan.
He quietly walked over, and in the corner, a pollutant with long limbs was gnawing on a piece of flesh.
It was entirely white, squatting on the ground, eating like a wild beast. And the severed half arm of 154 lay in front of Lu Yan.
[Divine Realm - Ordinary Divine Being.]
[Pollution Value: 3500. Its appearance is very similar to an alien. There are folds on its head, and its limbs are on the ground. As divine beings without auxiliary brains, they are discriminated against by divine beings with auxiliary brains. They are called "rupturers" in the outside world.]
[As long as there is a gap, there will be classes, right?]
Lu Yan fired a shot at it.
A burst of blood splattered from the heart position of this entirely white pollutant.
However, the pollutant didn't die. It struggled to open its mouth, emitting a roar, with steel needle-like sharp teeth filling its entire mouth.
[There is a main nerve controlling the body behind its neck.]
Lu Yan pulled out the Hellfire, and as the pollutant pounced on him, he decisively performed a back throw and then stabbed towards the back of its neck.
The gushing black blood was nauseatingly thick.
In the corner, there was still a half-eaten human, with wide-open eyes, like a dehydrated fish, lips moving.
Lu Yan leaned over and listened for a moment.
The person was saying, "It hurts... so much..."
Even brainwashed education from childhood, saying being eaten by divine beings was the best destination for returning to the Pure Land of Bliss, couldn't deceive the animal instincts engraved in genes.
They would feel pain from injuries and fear from death.
"...Take me with you," her hollow eyes stared at Lu Yan, a large fist-sized blood hole in her chest, and her body cold from massive blood loss, a white soul figure peeled off her body, finally dissipating into the ground.
The images uploaded by the surveillance caused a commotion in the Central Divine Court.
Apart from the Lord, the twelve guards of the Central Divine Court were the highest rulers of the divine realm.
As aristocrats among the divine beings, these people naturally wouldn't participate in hunting. Guarding the divine court was their most important task.
"Who is he? What's going on?!"
"Which hatchery did he come from?"
These pollutants were accustomed to living high above and were used to the servility of the familiar beings. They had never thought that their own kind would die at the hands of prey.
Some divine beings looked suspicious: "Is it those despicable heretics? But how could heretics come to the Central Divine Court without alerting our Lord?"
Even the pollutants themselves in the divine realm were unaware of being called "pollutants" in the outside world, a despised existence.
They saw everyone else as ants, finding it hard to accept that their own kind could also become prey.
Almost all the pollutants' eyes turned to the man in the center.
He was a guardian of the divine court, also the most trusted subordinate of the Lord. He possessed a secondary brain gifted by the gods, weighing a heavy 1580g. He had almost the same level of thinking ability as humans.
His name was Feng Qing. It was said that he used to be a heretic with the code name Bluebird, but since the original guardian of the divine court died at his hands, fewer and fewer divine beings discussed Feng Qing's origin.
Feng Qing's eyes were as blue as the sky, but there was no divine charm in them.
He looked at the screen in the surveillance, and his gaze stopped at four abnormal positions, his pale lips slightly parted: "The dignity of the gods cannot be violated."
"These are heretics. Kill them."
...
Lu Yan's battles often tilted the scales in favor of the underdog, and now facing these Divine Realm Pollutants, he seemed to handle them with ease. The red dots on the map dwindled incessantly, and Lu Yan couldn't be bothered to tally his victories anymore.
As evening fell, the sky, obscured by mist, took on a warm yellow hue, though the sun was concealed.
Suddenly, four slightly larger red dots appeared on the map.
The system intoned: "[These are high-level Pollutants from the Central Divine Court. Pollution levels are around 7000.]"
These red dots converged towards the green ones upon entering the battlefield.
Lu Yan held his breath, locating a vantage point with a broad view.
"[The Pollutant you're about to face was once seen in Song Jingchen's mind.]"
"[He's one of the Divine Court guards, codenamed 'Malarial Mosquito.' His appearance resembles a humanoid mosquito, and like mosquitoes, his slender proboscis can suck blood and inject larvae into a person's body.]"
"[Pollution level, 7200.]"
"[Talents: Bloodthirst, Plague]"
"[I suggest you try to break its wings first; otherwise, this battle will be quite challenging. Fortunately, its traits don't support prolonged high-speed flight.]"
