Meng Chao returned to the other side of the roof and looked at the full view of Leprosy Village.

  It might be known as a village, but in truth, it was a cluster of rising and falling tilted buildings.

  It was as if the villagers used reinforced concrete to somewhat stabilize the ruins that had fallen a long time ago, then built new ruins above them.

  It also looked like a nest for pests that had been magnified ten thousand times.

  Leprosy Village was surrounded by mist that was a mix of faint purple, dark brown, and dark red.

  Meng Chao was very familiar with this slightly pungent mist, since he grew up in an old residential area.

  It was the exhaust released by low-grade crystals, because they were filled with impurities and had poisonous substances. The chemical reaction was also not strong enough.

  Compared to Blessed Heavenly Garden, the exhaust around and above Leprosy Village was ten times thicker. It practically hid the sky, so the village did not look like it belonged to this dimension. Instead, it was a village built at the bottom of hell.

  By the looks of it, the crystals Leprosy Village used were ten times worse than the ones used in Blessed Heavenly Garden.

  It was the lowest quality crystal that not even public buses would use. It produced severe pollution and radiation and had unimaginable consequences to the human body.

  But the villagers were already products of the “unimaginable consequences” born from the effects of the Other World continuously invading the bodies of Earthlings.

  For the sake of survival, they needed cheap sources of energy, and they couldn’t be bothered about anything else.

  Under the heavily polluted smoke, Meng Chao found the trash-filled drain surrounding Leprosy Village.

  Most of the trash had rotted and gone bad, which turned it into something that resembled humus and was incredibly sticky and foul-smelling, like something found deep in a jungle.

  But more trash was thrown on top of the rotten trash, forming hills that floated above the humus.

  Quite a number of the children from Leprosy Village did not care about the humus floating past them. They climbed up the hills of trash and chose the resources that still had some bit of value.

  Countless thick, squirming vines covered in thorns also grew from the deepest parts of the humus.

  They climbed out of the drains like ivys and stuck to the walls of the buildings in Leprosy Village, turning the colorful, mottled, and damaged buildings into strange creatures that looked even stranger and more twisted, as if they were deformed things that were rotting and fighting for their last breath. It brought about a completely different picture compared to the normal residential areas.

  ‘This place…… is really troublesome!’


  Meng Chao scowled.

  Leprosy Village was shrouded by heavily polluted smoke, so it was difficult to observe and scan the situation inside.

  This meant that they were blinded, and the difficulty of the mission increased by leaps and bounds. The number of sacrifices they had to make would also be higher.

  He cast his gaze on the small black market at the entrance of Leprosy Village.

  The villagers and normal lair citizens traded without coming into contact with each other and used the barter system.

  The entire black market was divided into two sections. On each side were rows of huge storage shelves, along with manually-controlled gears and transportation belts.

  The resources brought by the roller bladers were placed in the storage shelves or the transportation belts.

  The villagers would then personally crank the gears and pull the daily necessities and raw materials for cultivation to their side.

  Then, they would use the same method to transport the gene medicine they created or the weapons they had modified until they no longer looked the same but had ten times the damage.

  Because of it, neither side would bother each other, and it reduced the possibility of them getting into conflict.

  Meng Chao saw quite a number of villagers on the side belonging to Leprosy Village. They were the descendants of the zombie virus infectees.

  Most of them covered themselves tightly with huge cloaks and bandages.

  But based on how some of them looked too large or swollen, it was obvious that they were different from normal people. At the very least, normal people would definitely not grow more than 2.5m or have a shoulder width of more than 1m.

  There were also some villagers who carefully pulled off their hoods and revealed their true faces to test the armor, fighting suits, and all sorts of weapons and equipment sent by the outside world.

  Perhaps it was because they were the second or third generation of the infectees, but the mutated genes had slowly stabilized, and they were not as deformed or hideous as Meng Chao imagined.

  Some people’s facial features were no different from those of normal people. It was just that they had blue or red skin.

  Some of them had really fair skin, and their faces were even more beautiful than those of normal people. But their ears perked up, and fangs revealed themselves, which proved that they were also descendants of the infectees.

  Some people were short and stout. They did not look like dwarves, but were like burly bodybuilders who were squashed until they were half their original height, squeezing more than 100kg of muscles into a body that was less than 1.3m tall. They were covered by hair that looked like steel brushes, and when they jumped around, they were like steel bombs that would explode on contact.

  Some people also had a faint layer of scales on their arms. Their cheeks had traces of parotid glands, and they looked like they were more suited to live in water compared to land.

  In truth, some people even had four arms and could use them with great agility. If they lifted four guns at the same time, the firepower they unleashed would be twice as good as that of a normal person.

  When Meng Chao saw the legendary infectee descendants, he was a little stunned, and a strange sense of familiarity rose in his heart.

  ‘Why do I feel like the descendants of the zombie virus infectees are about the same as the local human-like species who have been living for millions of years in the Other World?’


  But the relationship between Earthlings and the Other Worldlings was not what he should explore right now.

  Based on the memories of his previous life, many human-like Other Worldlings had natural talents similar to those of monsters, and even if they had never trained their bodies before, they still possessed relatively fierce fighting power.

  And this was what worried Meng Chao. He wondered about the villagers’ fighting strength.

  At that moment, Meng Chao saw more than ten burning sparks in the 3D map representing the territory around Leprosy Village.

  “The elites from the clubs in Golden Tooth Lair have arrived.” Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong told everyone. “There’re a total of thirteen Heaven Realm superhumans. Aside from Saber Jin Wanhao, all the elites in the lair have arrived.”


  There were twenty Heaven Realm superhumans in the hunting squad.

  Together with the powerful fighters from Golden Tooth Lair, they had a total of thirty-three Heaven Realm superhumans. Their lineup was truly strong.

  Even if their target was an Apocalyptic Beast or a Deity Realm superhuman, they were confident that they could fight against them.

  And even though the normal club members did not have high cultivation realms, they had an advantage in numbers. They were quite well equipped with light and heavy weapons, and now, they had quietly surrounded Leprosy Village.

  Once fearsome firepower was set up at the highest points and the tactical strongholds, the veteran hunters finally sighed in relief.

  At that moment, the rollerblader sending the raw materials had reached Leprosy Village.

  Big Brother Knife, who was at the perimeter of the lair, also received a new email from the mastermind.

  There were only two rows of numbers in the email.

  The first row was the number of a storage shelf.

  The second row was the password to open the storage box.

  The rollerblader stuffed the backpack with the locating chip into the storage box.

  All the veteran hunters stared at the storage shelf.

  The club members, who were familiar with all the nooks and crannies of the lair, released more than one hundred rats that were biochemically modified and had chips as well as electrodes planted in their heads.

  The rats carried mini cameras and sensors.

  Under the control of humans, they snuck into the humus, went over the drain, and searched for a drain hole.

  No matter how much Leprosy Village isolated itself from the world, it still needed to throw out a large amount of household and industrial waste.

  Humans had a hard time moving through poisonous and corrosive liquid waste, but biochemically modified rats could.

  And they brought with them super sensitive sensors. They could test the microcomponents of more than one hundred raw materials in no time.

  Very soon, the rats snuck into Leprosy Village through the drainage pipes.

  They sensed that there were components of the Deification Capsule in the industrial waste.

  The further they went into Leprosy Village, the greater was the density of the raw materials of the Deification Capsules in the liquid waste.

  Quite a number of pests that had been living in the draining pipes showed different degrees of excitement, as if they were affected by the residual liquid from creating the Deification Capsules.

  The biochemical rats’ breathing, heart rates, and various physiological parameters also showed abnormalities.

  This was enough to prove that the Deification Capsule pharmacy was hidden in Leprosy Village.

  At that moment, someone took the package from the storage shelf.

  The one who did it was a small boy.

  He should also be playing the part of a rollerblader.

  Soon, he was concealed by the smoke and broke away from the veteran hunters’ surveillance.

  But the chip in the package could provide them with his real-time location and scan the general terrain around him.

  Even though they were limited by the transmission power, and the 3D map created from the scans was blurry, they could connect it with the coordinates the biochemical rats gave them after they found the spot with the thickest density of residual liquid from creating Deification Capsules. They had settled on it after going through all the clues, so the veteran hunters were basically sure about the location of the Deification Capsule pharmacy.

  Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong looked at Meng Chao and whispered, “We’ve already scanned 30% of Leprosy Village through the locating chip and the biochemical rats.

  “When the scanned area is more than 50% and we’ve gained the general location of the Deification Capsule pharmacy as well as created three offensive routes and retreat routes, we’ll rush in. You alright with that?”


  “Yeah.” Then Meng Chao shook his head and said a little hesitantly, “But Senior Zhou, I’ve been combing through our capture operation, and I found something that doesn’t make sense.

  “First, why did the mastermind choose Big Brother Knife to help him do stuff? No. I’m not talking about the problem of loyalty. A traitor who was chased out of his gang definitely doesn’t have any loyalty. Anyone who interrogates him will learn all the secrets.

  “I’m saying that Big Brother Knife stands out too much. His arm was switched to a blade, and his leg is crippled. He limps when he walks, and it’s difficult to not recognize him.

  “With how cautious the mastermind is, shouldn’t they look for someone who is more average-looking, less eye-catching, and can hide themselves easier? Big Brother Knife is someone who works at the bottom of society, he’s not some rare talent. At the very least, he shouldn’t be a handler who receives and sends out goods, because that requires him to show up in public!

  “I’ve been thinking about this all the way here, and the more I think about it, the more it doesn’t make sense. Big Brother Knife is practically a bait the mastermind placed under a spotlight for us to find!”


  Chapter 492: Even if They Knew That There Was a Tiger in the Mountains

  Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong was silent.

  “Also, Senior Zhou, don’t you think that this place is too quiet?” Meng Chao continued. “I know that the gangs in the lair want to create an atmosphere of calmness to confuse the mastermind, but this seemingly clever move is actually stupid.

  “Right now, Dragon City is at war at the perimeter. The news must have spread to the lair, and the mastermind definitely knows the time when the monster civilization will launch their attack.

  “In other words, the mastermind knows very well that the people in the lair should be very restless right now, so it should only make sense if it’s chaos. The peace and quiet before our eyes actually doesn’t make sense!

  “With the cunning and wariness of the mastermind, when he smells danger, he should immediately move away. But why does it seem like there is no movement within Leprosy Village?

  “They didn’t even examine the raw materials in the package with the locating chip and just took it into Leprosy Village.

  “Something is off here. Trust me, Senior Zhou, we’ve been too hasty. Think about it. There are too many loopholes. If I were the mastermind, I’d hide a remotely-controlled camera in the room Big Brother Knife hid or plant a chip that could monitor his physiological parameters in his body. That way, I would immediately know if he were captured.”


  Zhou Chong stared at Meng Chao. “Are you suspecting that there is a trap in Leprosy Village?”


  “I’m not suspecting it. I know it for certain,” Meng Chao said. “The mastermind might be the most terrifying and cunning enemy we’ve ever faced. There is definitely a trap in Leprosy Village!”


  “I agree with your thoughts. I believe that the command center agrees with your thoughts as well.” Zhou Chong first nodded before he changed his tone and slammed his fist against his palm. “But even if it’s a trap, so what? We have gathered a total of thirty-three Heaven Realm superhumans on our side. We’re an absolute force that can’t be stopped!

  “Of course the enemy has set up a trap. But even if it’s a tiger’s den, we’re forced into this corner, we have to go in and take a risk!”


  Zhou Chong’s determination affected Meng Chao.

  He thought about it carefully and found that it made sense.

  The thirty-three Heaven Realm superhumans were all hunters and martial artists who had fought in multiple battles. No matter where they were, they were a grand lineup that could destroy everything with ease.

  Even if it was a trap, it was fine. They just needed to level it to the ground.

  It has to be known that in his previous life, before Golden Tooth Lair was destroyed by fire, countless powerful superhumans died during the northern offense because the Red Radiance Jade mine exploded and Raging Waves was destroyed, so there was a shortage of superhumans, and Dragon City suffered a huge blow to its foundation.

  Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong and the other veteran hunters had all joined the northern offense.

  If Meng Chao had not turned the tides, they would have all died under the rampaging force of the Red Radiance Jade spirit energy tsunami.

  And even if they did not die, their spirit meridians would have been destroyed by the spirit energy tsunami, and they would be cripples.

  It would then have been impossible for them to join the search and hunt in Golden Tooth Lair.

  In other words, in his previous life, the abnormal beast research department and secret police might have noticed the problem with the Deification Capsules and found that they came from the depths of Golden Tooth Lair based on the clues.

  But the number of forces the abnormal beast research department and the secret police could mobilize were far weaker than the hunting squad in front of him.

  Even if they knew that danger was ahead, they had to take the risk. Even if it was a sea of fire or a mountain of blades in front of them, they could only walk forward bravely!

  At that moment, the command center sent the newest war report from the frontlines.

  They saw humans and monsters engaged in fierce fights at dozens of tactical strongholds and important places blessed with an abundant amount of resources at the perimeter of Dragon City.

  There was smoke, flames, and sand as well as stones flying all over the place.

  Huge, rampaging monsters with hideous expressions rushed out of the flames and fog. While enduring the strong firepower aimed at them, they uprooted the semi-underground fighting fortresses and threw the armored fighting vehicles high into the air. They trampled on them like they were matchboxes.

  Nightmarish Beasts! Hell Beasts! Apocalyptic Beasts!

  Waves of monsters attacked as if there was no end to them. They were indeed the nightmares, hell, and apocalypse to humans!

  But even if they were in the midst of a nightmare, hell, and the apocalypse, humans had a way to fight back.

  Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

  Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

  After a series of long howls and deafening explosions, red lotuses filled the ground and the air. They covered the whole battlefield.

  Each destructive red lotus spread beyond one hundred meters and turned all the monsters within their killing range into fireballs, charcoal, and ashes.

  There were rampaging monsters with shells that could compare to super alloy and were as tall as eight storeys. Not even anti-monster artillery from the main battle tanks could do anything to them, so they had been flaunting their prowess, but the next instant, half of their bodies were gone. They fell to the ground like mountains of flesh.

  This was the baptism of bullets that came from the heavy artillery base of the Red Dragon Army, which was located south of Red Dragon River.

  No carbon-based life form could endure a round of focused firepower from railway guns with 0.8 caliber special crystal bullets.

  If there was, then they would just fire one more round.

  Of course, every time the super railway gun fired a round of bullets, it was a vicious blow to the precarious financial budget of Dragon City.

  Monsters were actually valuable resources.

  The value of one Apocalyptic Beast was not that much lower than of a whole crystal mine.

  If a Deity Realm superhuman used the most accurate and simple method to kill an Apocalyptic Beast, the harvesters could usually harvest more than 90% of its resources.

  But if the downpour of bullets from the super railway guns turned the Apocalyptic Beasts and Hell Beasts into tatters, unless they sent veteran harvesters like Meng Chao and Ning Shewo, the harvesters would only be able to get at most 10% of the resources.

  However, in the face of monster hordes coming at them in waves, the humans had no other choice.

  The battle instantly reached its climax.

  Quite a number of Red Dragon Army and low-grade superhumans had slaughtered into a frenzy while surrounded by the monster hordes and chose the brave act of hugging crystal bombs and jumping into monster hordes to die together with them.

  With strong firepower and unbending wills, the two sides fought fiercely against each other, and the monster civilization, which seemed to have been attacking from all fronts, soon revealed that it didn’t have enough firepower for such an assault.

  Quite a number of monster hordes gradually turned scarce and advanced slowly once their cannon fodder was all depleted. While the first wave had come at the bases with fierceness, it was made up of normal monsters.

  Clearly, the monster civilization did not have the power to launch true offense from all directions. Most of the offenses were just feints.

  Nie Chenglong told Meng Chao and the hunting squad, “Since the monsters chose to die, we’re spared the trouble of looking for their nests all over the place.

  “Right now, the Red Dragon Army and Supernatural Tower have decided to rely on the current defense lines and the heavy artillery bases in Jiangnan Major District to engage in a positional warfare against the monster civilization. We’ll use automatic fighting fortresses, drones, and remotely controlled self-thinking vehicles to deplete the monsters’ firepower.

  “Once we figure out the main offensive directions and get rid of their might, our army will go after the monster hordes and get rid of them completely!

  “At the same time, our Deity Realm superhumans are proactively searching for and locating the Apocalyptic Beasts among the enemies. They want to use numbers against them and work together with the super railway guns to deal the greatest damage.

  “You must understand, ever since Shattered Starlake and Raging Waves became our home, monsters have been suffering defeats for more than a year on all frontlines. They appear to be staking everything on this invasion and are delivering a counterattack before their deaths.

  “As long as we can endure this and even kill three or more Apocalyptic Beasts, the monsters will lose their ability to fight in the field against us. We’ll have absolute tactical initiative!

  “At that time, the entire Monster Mountain Range will belong to the humans. The remaining monsters will have to stay curled up in the nests while enduring hunger and shiver alone!

  “Hence, the most important battlefield right now is the perimeter around Dragon City. The Supernatural Tower, Red Dragon Army, Survival Committee, four great research centers, the nine great mega corporations and even the abnormal beast research department and secret police have poured most of their resources and strength into the final battle between Deity Realm superhumans and Apocalyptic Beasts.

  “Captain Zhou, I’m going to represent the frontlines and ask you once: Can you stabilize the situation on your side?”


  Zhou Chong gritted his teeth. “Yes! With us around, we won’t let a single Deification Capsule flow out of the lair and create chaos!”


  The communication with the command center ended.

  The locating and scanning chip sent into Leprosy Village had explored more than 50% of the area and created a general outline of the main streets and buildings deep in Leprosy Village.

  Soon, the chip was definitely going to be discovered by the mastermind. It might have even happened already.

  So, the hunting squad did not hope that the chip could pinpoint the specific location of the Deification Capsule pharmacy.

  Its goal was just to guide the biochemical rats with the cameras and sensors close to the drainage pipe of the Deification Capsule pharmacy.

  As expected, after a few biochemical rats died, the remaining biochemical rats sent good news one after another.

  They found a well-hidden drainage pipe.

  The liquid waste there shone with a faint, fluorescent, green light.

  It was the color of the Deification Capsules.

  They also found some pests’ damaged carcasses near the drainage pipe. The animals hadn’t died from bite marks, but had been burned.

  “These pests living near draining pipes show symptoms of self-immolation, just like humans who took the Deification Capsules?”


  To be on the safe side, they controlled one biochemical rat to crawl into the liquid waste with the thickest green light and start eating it.

  Soon, it started screeching and spasming, like it was flailing its limbs. Its body started growing madly, and terrifying wounds appeared on its skin. Its claws became sharper and more dangerous as well.

  In the end, flames gushed out of its throat, and in just a few seconds, its entire head burned to the point that only its skull was left.

  The other biochemical rats recorded this scene clearly.

  This was enough to prove that the Deification Capsule pharmacy was above the drainage pipe.

  Chapter 493: 第四百九十三章 血屠，海啸，鬼鹰!

  Bloody Slaughter, Tsunami, Ghost Eagle!

  The biochemical rats crawled into the building above them through the drainage pipe. Fortunately, the Deification Capsules released a green, neon light that was very eye-catching in the darkness.

  And the greater the density, the brighter it was.

  It made it easy to figure out on which floor the pharmacy operated.

  After five minutes of searching, the biochemical rats crawled out of the drainage pipe and landed in a dirty sewage pool.

  The place did not have the strict creation processes legal labs and pharmacies had. It also lacked safety and defensive control systems.

  The biochemical rats scurried out of the sewage pool without anyone noticing them.

  They filmed the full structure of the pharmacy from different angles.

  It was a standard illegal pharmacy that was not huge and looked like it was modified from a few apartments that were connected together.

  An even thicker and pungent spirit energy fog floated in the air inside. Most of the drug creation equipment and workers were vague forms because of it.

  Even so, the veteran hunters and club members were able to see a number of bottles. They had all sorts of colorful, suspicious-looking liquid that circulated and blended together to slowly form a bewitching, green light. Then, it gathered together to form a semi-transparent, semi-liquid capsule.

  “It’s the drug creation equipment for certain gene medicine.”


  Meng Chao had seen similar equipment in Agricultural University’s resource and biochemical courses.

  While he was developing the Ultimate Style, Gu Jianbo had also gotten a set of simple drug creation tools to create his own formula.

  Meng Chao had used them before, so he could recognize them at first glance.

  The people busy in front of the drug creation equipment were wrapped up in airtight, one-piece lab coats. They also used goggles and filtration masks to cover their faces. For the time being, the hunting squad did not know their identities.

  Dragon City placed an emphasis on cultivation, and the most important thing for cultivation was gene medicine.

  Pharmacists were the same as martial artists, harvesters, and hunters. They were also quite popular in Dragon City.

  Not only did the universities in the city offer pharmaceutical courses, many night schools and training classes in society also had crash courses for drug making. Anyone could take part in them as long as they forked out the money.

  There were a lot of classes promising to help people learn how to create drugs within a hundred days and helping them move from beginners to masters on the deep web. They promised to teach normal people hands-on how to harvest raw materials from monsters and create gene medicine that could help speed up their evolution process.

  There were plenty of talented people who could create drugs in Dragon City, and the competition was strong.

  Hence, it was inevitable that there were a few wicked people who were eager for results and were opportunistic, which led to them trying to create miracle drugs that would help them rise to power with one step.

  Most of the wicked people loved hiding in places like Golden Tooth Lair.

  It was not strange for those whose hearts were blinded and humanity swallowed by greed to have been recruited by the mastermind.

  At that moment, when a biochemical rat moved its eyes, a new face appeared in the people’s retinas.

  This person did not wear any goggles or mask. He did not wear a protective suit either. Instead, he wore a nano fighting suit and had a malleable metal armor on it. There were two sabers on his back.

  He should be the overseer or guard.

  He also had the face of a lion. His nose was so big that it looked deformed, like it had squeezed his eyes and mouth to the side.

  His light yellow eyes, beard, and hair also made it hard for others to forget him after they saw him. Hence, when his face appeared in the neural tactical data link, a few veteran hunters sucked in sharp breaths.

  “Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang?”


  He was on the Top 100 Wanted Criminals list from the Supernatural Tower, and even Meng Chao had heard his name before.

  Ten years ago, he had been famous in the hunter circle for his decisiveness and lightning-fast attacks.

  He also loved entering monster dens alone and killing everything.

  There were many times when he had the chance to wait for his companions to surround the monsters and use reliable strategies to fight, but he just took unnecessary risks.

  It seemed like he did not become a hunter to harvest the resources from monsters, but to enjoy the pleasure of killing.

  His unique methods brought him great fame and a lot of admirers.

  Even Meng Chao, when he was young and ignorant, had used half a month’s worth of food money to buy a legitimate Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang figurine.

  Unfortunately, as Gao Yang killed more monsters, the spirit energy he absorbed became thicker, and it slowly invaded his brain. His brain tissue began to change, and in time, he could no longer control his desire to kill.

  Normal monsters and low-grade Nightmarish Beasts were also unable to satisfy his tastes. Only the screams of Hell Beasts could calm the ripples of the sea of blood in his heart.

  Then, one time, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang wandered about the depths of the wild for half a month, but did not run into anything worth killing. The agitation and desire to kill that had been building in his heart charged out like a flood past a broken dam, and he could no longer turn back.

  At that time, he ran into a Hell Beast that had been driven in his direction by a superhuman squad.

  One of the rules in the hunter circle was that no one was allowed to steal kills, unless the other party sent an invitation or was heavily injured and clearly unable to kill the monster on their own. Only then another person was allowed to butt in.

  This was something that started during the practical tests of the national college examination, and everyone knew it.

  The superhuman squad had worked hard and set all sorts of traps before they were finally able to drive the Hell Beast into a corner. They did all of that because they wanted to capture it alive and sell it to the monster research center for research purposes.

  But when the prey was about to end up in their hands, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang ignored everything and killed it.

  Due to his surging killing intent, the scene was like something that came straight out of hell. The Hell Beast was practically cut to pieces, and it lost all value for research or harvesting purposes.

  This situation could still be saved, even if things had progressed to this stage.

  With Gao Yang’s fame and earnings, he could pay for the loss the superhuman squad suffered, but during the process of hunting the Hell Beast, his vitality magnetic field had surged so much that it had gone over its limits. His mental strength index was severely imbalanced, and his brain was taken over by desire to kill.

  Gao Yang then made a major mistake. He attacked the superhuman squad that came forward to negotiate with him.

  Everyone was taken off guard, and he killed five of them. He then snatched their weapons and supplies before fleeing into the jungle. No one knew where he went.

  After that, the Supernatural Tower organized a few hunt and kill missions for Gao Yang.

  But the fog, jungle, and the wild created the best battlefield for guerilla warfare.

  And Gao Yang did not gain his moniker of Bloody Slaughter solely due to his madness. Under his seemingly crazed murderous spree was an incredibly twisted but calm hunter’s heart.

  Gao Yang was never captured by his peers. Instead, he used the jungle and the fog to play around with his former colleagues.

  In the dark, hellish jungle, he was able to unleash his killing instincts— no, his murderous instincts to their fullest.

  The Hunter’s Association had sacrificed more than ten hunters before they were finally able to hurt him.

  But in the end, they were not able to capture him or collect his corpse.

  All they saw was him fleeing further into the marshes with his bloodsoaked body. Then, for around eight years, no one heard about Gao Yang again.

  The entire hunter circle had sighed in relief. They thought that this demon whose mind was invaded by killing intent had died in the marshes and turned into a pile of bones. They did not expect that they would see his nightmarish face once more in a nightmarish lab.

  “Well, damn,” Bullet Xue Rui said coldly.

  In the past, he had joined the great capture operation for Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang three times and seen his closest comrade die tragically in Gao Yang’s hands.

  “Don’t be hasty. Let’s see what other scum the mastermind has recruited. Later, we’ll capture them all in one go,” Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong said gravely.

  At that moment, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang tilted his head and listened to something.

  It seemed like someone was sending a command to him through the mini-communicator in his ear canal.

  He narrowed his eyes. His pores opened, and fierce killing intent gushed out of them. He turned around and walked outside.

  “Follow him,” Zhou Chong ordered the tamer of the biochemical rats.

  One biochemical rat followed Gao Yang without making a sound through the ventilation pipe on the ceiling.

  Fortunately, the spirit energy that filled the room was not enough to cause a chemical response. Only exhaust was released.

  This sort of exhaust did not only obscure vision, but also interfered with a superhuman’s senses because it contained a small amount of spirit energy.

  Besides, the ventilators around them were rumbling as they worked. They drowned out the sounds the rat made while it scurried along, so Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang did not notice its existence.

  The biochemical rat smoothly followed Gao Yang into the outhouse.

  There were two guards there.

  They did not wear masks, but had wide tactical goggles.

  After analyzing their facial features and comparing them to the wanted criminals database, they were soon able to identify them.

  One of them was Tsunami Wan Zhuiyun. He was skilled in creating large and destructive spirit energy magnetic fields and searching for the frequency that would allow him to resonate with the target so that he could dissolve the target from within.

  He was originally someone who had a lot of achievements under his belt too. But during a cultivation session, he went through spirit energy deviation and accidentally magnified his spirit energy magnetic field until it was one hundred times bigger than before. He then used superfast tremors to destroy the internal structure of a building nearby, which made the seven-story building collapse and led to the deaths and injury of hundreds of innocent citizens.

  Wan Zhuiyun committed a mistake, but he did not want to face judgment. People like him who used their supernatural powers to cause major casualties would have unique chips installed into their heads, shackles bound to their limbs, and remote explosives attached to them, regardless of whether they did it intentionally or not. They would then be sent into the most dangerous exploration teams and have to carry out missions in the fog that almost guaranteed certain death. The survival rate was practically zero.

  Wan Zhuiyun did not want to die in the fog, so he chose to run away.

  He was different from Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang in that he had always been working in a lab affiliated to a mega corporation, so he did not have a lot of experience surviving in the jungle.

  Hence, many people believed that he had hid in the depths of the lair.

  But having this knowledge was useless, because he was a walking weapon of mass destruction. If the secret police entered the lair recklessly to capture him, he could use his tsunami-like high-frequency magnetic fields to destroy the internal structure of the buildings around him and drag countless people to their deaths with him.

  Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang and Tsunami Wan Zhuiwan had certain external influences that caused them to fall, but Ghost Eagle Song Yu was different.

  He was a true monster in human skin.

  No, he was a demon.
