Galaxy Domination Guide-Chapter 574 - 560 Beast Tide
Bai Zhongqi pulled out the emergency communicator issued by the park management, and a holographic screen shot up from it.
"...Sss, please, tourists, rest assured, the park has taken emergency measures and has begun rescuing the tourists inside the park. Everyone should try to protect themselves and wait for the park's rescue."
On the holographic screen's map of the planet, most regions of the Hunting Planet were shown occupied by a horrific shade of red. The legend indicated that red represented a Beast Tide uprising, and the deeper the color, the more severe the situation.
Lan Xue was dumbfounded and said, "What's going on? Why have all the animals on the Hunting Planet suddenly gone into a frenzy?"
Bai Zhongqi seemed thoughtful.
"This is an unprecedented situation. Even when a couple of small cats ran amok before, the park was able to handle it quickly. These monsters come from different planets, aren't from one species, and don't have any connection at all. How could they suddenly unify and start a rebellion?" Lan Xue couldn't make sense of it.
Bai Zhongqi said, "Naturally, there must be something that acted as an instigator, or even an organizer, a leader."
"How is that possible? These monsters barely have any intelligence, and they are usually fiercely fighting each other. Even for humans, it's extremely difficult to mobilize the compatriots of an entire planet for an event at the same time, not to mention the creatures of the Hunting Planet."
Bai Zhongqi could imagine that such a situation must have been beyond the park management's expectations. They could prepare various emergency plans, but they couldn't possibly prepare for the whole park's monsters to run amok in unison, because it simply didn't make logical sense.
But the impossible had happened.
Lan Xue cautiously asked, "Uncle, do you think the park's security team can save everyone?"
Bai Zhongqi shook his head decisively, "Even in this forest where we are, there have already been quite a few people killed just now. There are too many monsters on the Hunting Planet, and too few humans. Although the park security team may still have some strength, facing such a scale of rampage, once they go down, even if they can rescue some people, they may also risk being surrounded and attacked."
Bai Zhongqi, through observation, had realized that creatures with different personalities had become fearless of death at this moment. Many monsters had been killed by hunting rifles, but more rushed in and bit the tourists to death. The quantity of these monsters was indeed too large, and even though some VIP players possessed more powerful weapons, they could not clear out all the monsters in a short time. Once the monsters got close, without any other means, one would inevitably be devoured.
The tourists who entered the park were real tourists, coming here to play. They had guidebooks, knew where powerful giant beasts lived, and could not provoke them. Most people hid in places like this forest, equipped with warning radars and weapons, taking down only the monsters they could handle - it was pure entertainment.
But when the originally dispersed monsters gathered together and killed any intelligent beings they encountered, the tourists, without organization and powerful weapons, were doomed to die.
Bai Zhongqi still relied on Star Energy to shield his and Lan Xue's biological signals, preventing most monsters sensitive to odors from noticing them and coming over to provoke attacks, otherwise Bai Zhongqi would have had enough just dealing with these creatures.
Bai Zhongqi had placed scouting Enslaved Beasts early on the periphery of the Hunting Planet; once they entered the Hunting Planet, they could relay everything happening on the planet back to him.
In front of him, a security team from a park district had just been wiped out. It was a team that even had two flying ships and hundreds of armed security members, but it was still no match for the rampaging monsters.
After landing, the rescue team tried to set up a perimeter and evacuate stranded tourists. However, a large number of flying monsters attacked the flying ships, making it difficult for them to take off, and a horde of monsters surged from the ground. Even though the rescue team had heavy firepower, they were easily killed off.
Some park districts' armed flying ships attempted aerial bombardment to eliminate a large number of monsters and create a rescue zone. But as soon as they began bombarding, the monsters started running away to preserve themselves. When the bombardment stopped, they emerged again to attack humans.
"These monsters are quite smart, or rather, the person directing these monsters is smart," Bai Zhongqi thought to himself, "The battle tactics are clear-cut, and they aren't afraid to sacrifice monsters. Their sole purpose is to destroy the park..."

This piqued his interest in the "person" controlling everything. He wouldn't possibly be defeated on the Hunting Planet himself; he could squash the planet in the blink of an eye, no matter what was happening on it. He could watch everything unfold calmly from the perspective of an onlooker.
Lan Xue, who was also looking at the holographic screen, exclaimed at this moment, "Uncle, it's a Hydra! Have the top ten evils also started to riot? Ah, such a terrifying creature, even a flying ship would have a hard time dealing with it. Why doesn't the Trade Alliance call in the warships orbiting outside to bomb the planet?"
Bai Zhongqi said, "Right now, we don't know how many elites from different civilizations are on the planet; if planetary bombardment causes collateral damage, then it's the park management and the Trade Alliance who will be unlucky. Besides, I think the Trade Alliance is probably reluctant to destroy their golden signboard of the Hunting Planet. The rampaging monsters here are also their cash cow; killing them off means losing money too, so they're hesitating at the moment."
Lan Xue shouted, "That's because they aren't seeing clearly, ah! The Hunting Planet is designed to have a certain degree of death and injury; it's part of the appeal and thrill. But if such chaos breaks out on the Hunting Planet, no one will dare to come in the future. They won't be able to continue operating."
In the video footage, the giant Hydra, like a prehistoric Giant Beast, spewed a venom-like substance from its mouth, directly corroding the approaching flying ships. These small, low-altitude flying ships used for rescue didn't have Energy Shields. The Hydra's potent corrosive venom could directly inflict severe damage on the outer shells of these ships.
When flight malfunctions occurred, the Hydra simply swung one of its heads, striking the flying ship and knocking it out of the sky like a baseball.
The guns of the flying ship fired continuously at the Hydra. However, despite being severely wounded, this thick-skinned serpent forcefully brought down the ship.
The other eight heads of the Giant Beast reached the ground and casually devoured many monsters, then the wounds on its body immediately started to heal. The Hydra's regenerative ability was exceptionally strong; as long as it replenished its food, it would recover.
Watching, Bai Zhongqi was quite interested, thinking to himself, "It might be worth taking this creature's genes for Zero; perhaps it will significantly enhance the Swarm's Enslaved Beasts."
