Chapter 242 Hou Man's Goal
Kra River, hills.
The scavenger dragged out a pitch-black thing from the river out of boredom. It looked like a corpse.
"Bah, what a bad luck."
The deceased was dressed in black robes and looked like a member of the Black Sun Sect.
A corpse of a Black Sun cultist that has no use at all.
The scavenger touched his shriveled belly. He had not eaten anything for a day and a night. If you can pick up some valuable trash, you might be able to exchange it for some food from the recycling company.
There were many scavengers like him on the river bank. The floods submerged the land, but also washed up a lot of new garbage.
A few lucky scavengers found a beast corpse, which was identified as spiritual flesh, which made him envious. A few scavengers even found spiritual cores on the dead bodies of some mutated creatures.
Unfortunately, his luck was not so good.
At this time, it has been two days since the flood occurred, and the water level has dropped by more than half, exposing a large area of high ground. Maybe the flood will recede tomorrow.
But when the water recedes, where should he go?
The scavenger looked at the muddy river beach with a confused look on his face.
Kara City has been destroyed, maybe I should find another place to pick up trash.
Throwing away the useless corpses of Black Sun cultists, the scavengers continued to search for suspicious targets on the water.
At this time, the water suddenly rippled, like flies falling into the basin.
"Well, what happened?"
The scavenger rubbed his eyes hard and looked into the distance following the ripples.
Immediately afterwards, the hook in his hand slipped, and the scavenger trembled all over. He pointed into the distance in stunned silence for two or three seconds before shouting with the loudest voice in his life.
"Oh no, the giant...the giant beast is coming! Look, look, a giant beast taller than the building is coming towards us!"
At this time, all the scavengers looked at where the scavengers were pointing. At the junction of water and sky, a ferocious black figure was seen walking around the hill on one side and slowly moving towards this side.
"Oh my God! What a giant beast! A giant beast taller than a tall building!"
"Damn, it's really coming this way, how could this happen!"
"..."
For a time, people gathered on the waterfront to watch the tall-building-like beast approaching.
Shock, fear, despair.
All emotions exploded at this moment, and some scavengers even knelt on the ground and began to cry.
They are too difficult.
First came the flood, then the beast.
This doesn't give people a way to survive at all.
Even Houman, who was always calm, couldn't help showing a bitter expression at this moment.
This... is really unlucky.
Of course, some of the people present were relatively calm, such as some elderly people from Zhutian Recycling Company, especially Mary, Jim, Zhang Daqiang and others, all of whom looked very strange.
"That's Ga Di."
"Probably, they are the same breed as the gazis."
"My dear, I didn't expect the gazis to be so powerful when they grow up. No wonder they are so good at eating. How much do they need to eat to grow so big?"
Jim smacked his lips. Fortunately, those three little things had been exiled. This...could it be something Brother Xiao created again?
"Everyone prepare for battle!"
Lord Houman issued the order immediately.
If the target of the giant beast is here, a fierce battle is probably inevitable. With the current situation, the scavengers cannot escape at all.
"No! Lord City Lord, there seems to be someone above the giant beast."
The sharp-eyed machine gunner spotted the figure above the monster's head.
At this time, an afterimage suddenly appeared from behind the crowd and plunged into the water.
Amou flapped its cheerful hooves and swam in the direction of the giant beast. It knew this monster, and it had even taken eggs from the giant beast's body with its owner.
"It's the boss, the boss is back!"
"Oh my god, it's really Mr. Xiao! Mr. Xiao is back riding a giant beast!"
"Is this... is Boss Xiao's new mount?"
The people from the recycling company cheered. As the giant beast approached, everyone saw the figure standing above the monster, and they all showed shocked expressions.
Xiao Yang backed the car into the garage and parked it in a shallow bay. While looking at the stunned crowd below, he took out a few roots and fed them to the ghost corpse vine.
I saw a cluster of vines growing on Ga Di's neck, inserted into the big red eyeball at the root, sucking out every drop of the tumor like a persimmon.
"What the hell are you doing? Are you all gathering here...and you don't even want to pick up the trash?"
"Brother Xiao, my dear brother, where did you get this monster? Is it the leader of the Gadi clan?"
Jim jumped up and down, tapping his thick toes, and stroking his hard and thick giant paws, like a licking dog with a foot fetish.
"Well, actually it's Gazi's mother. She picked it up a long time ago. You've even eaten its tentacles."
Xiao Yang touched his chin and explained.
Many evolvers in the Zhutian Recycling Company have awakened their earth-escape skills because they ate Gadi's tentacles, which made everyone suddenly realize and marvel.
"Well, something is wrong. It seems to be dead? There is another life form in his body, and it is the vines that are controlling the body."
Mr. Tony from the Stargate circled around the monster and joined in the fun. He always had a sharp and vicious eye, and he could tell the reality of this monster at a glance.
Anna, Abel, Old Bull and others also came forward to watch. Such a huge beast is really rare, and can only be encountered occasionally in the depths of the wilderness.
Even the city lord Hou Man could not help but turn around in silence, his expression was even more sour than drinking sour wine.
"I wonder how long it will take to eat such a big beast?"
Jessica whispered in a shocking voice.
In fact, there are many people who think the same as her. After all, in the world of Gaitaia, scavenging and eating garbage is an instinct.
For a moment, everyone looked at Gadi with fiery eyes.
Good guy, there is meat under the heavy leather armor. If it is slaughtered and eaten, how many people can evolve.
Slurp.
On the third day, the flood finally receded.
The starving scavengers embarked on their scavenging journeys, and many people returned to the city of Kra again.
This once bustling city is now in a mess, with stagnant water all over the ground, collapsed buildings and garbage everywhere, and the whole city has been destroyed beyond recognition by the flood.
Some scavengers returned to their homes based on their memories, trying to find some useful things, but unfortunately most of the items were washed away by the flood.
The flood receded, but the problem remained.
"Boss Xiao, the city lord has something important to discuss with you."
"Let's go."
On the ruins of the city lord's mansion, Xiao Yang found the city lord Hou Man.
The old man stood alone on the ruins, looking sad, and a group of people under his feet were still chiseling ice. It was speculated that they were looking for some of the materials sealed before the retreat.
"Well, I wonder what the city lord wants to talk to me about?"
"Sorry, Boss Xiao, I'm bothering you. This time I invited you here to know what your company plans for the future?"
"What does the city lord have in mind?"
"Now that the city of Kela has been destroyed, it is unknown when it will be rebuilt. The cost will require a huge amount of materials to be piled up. Maybe we can find other cities to share some of the pressure."
"You want to rob?"
Xiao Yang looked at the city lord Hou Man again, and thought of the towns of Keer and Moore that had been sucked of blood. This guy has never been a good person.
"Alas, the law of the jungle is also a last resort."
Hou Man sighed a few times, but unfortunately there was no mercy or embarrassment on his face. The city lord is a person who understands the rules of the wilderness very well.
"Do you have a target?"
"Sir City."
