Chapter 350: Shadow (Please Subscribe, Collect, and Vote Monthly)

The violent blizzard passed through the mouth of the secluded canyon, and the howling wind echoed with mournful colors.

A speeding snowmobile passed through the barrier of the blizzard and broke into the silent canyon.

The snowmobile stopped on the crystal white ground.

A middle-aged man who looked honest and loyal jumped off the snowmobile and walked up to the dead snow-white spiders that had piled up like a hill and blocked the entrance of the canyon.

Swallowed slightly.

At this time, several young wilderness wanderers also jumped off the snowmobile and looked up at the huge corpse in shock.

"Is this the blood spider?"

The young wilderness wanderer at the front raised his head, and his sight could not even take in the huge corpse. He lowered his head and glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him, and said in a daze, "Master Wick, this is the hero. Eagle?"

Wick was stunned for a moment. When he said his previous comment about He Ao being an eagle, he never expected that He Ao could kill one of the most terrifying beasts near the camp so easily.

Is this an eagle? What a giant dragon!

"Ahem," he coughed calmly, "now you believe my vision."

Then he continued without waiting for the young man to ask, "Let's do it quickly. He helped us attract all the powerful strange beasts nearby. When those strange beasts come back, we won't be able to take away the blood spider's corpse."

"good."

Two more snowmobiles entered the canyon.

Everyone quickly started working.

——

The dark carriage was shaking slightly. He Ao leaned against the inner wall of the carriage and looked at the glimmer of light showing through the gap in the door.

This is the light that shines from the bright street lights on the carriage door.

There would be no such bright street lights in the wilderness.

The car has entered the city.

He Ao glanced at the intercom on his chest.

At this moment, the walkie-talkie has exceeded the communication range and cannot contact Wick, but He Ao knows that the back-up plan he arranged is still in effect.

The corpses of C-level alien beasts are also very attractive to other alien beasts with similar abilities.

However, each part of its body has a special use, and if it can be sold on the black market, it will be a huge sum of money.

Just because He Ao only took away the heart does not mean that he gave up the other parts.

He used the scent of the secret medicine to attract nearby strange beasts that could be attracted to the blood spider corpses, giving Wick and the others time to move the blood spider corpses.

Wick will help He Ao sell the corpse, and then draw a certain service fee from it. The money sold will be directly transferred to He Ao's cryptocurrency account.

Although the beast tide also has a strong sense of oppression, He Ao does not intend to be promoted in the beast tide.

First, there are no C-level beasts in the beast tide. According to the experience of the last Heao ceremony, the stronger the opponent in the ceremony, the better the effect of the ceremony.

Second, the pressure from the beast tide is not enough to push He Ao into an absolute desperate situation.

Therefore, the most suitable place for the ceremony is within the city.

The shaking carriage slowly stopped, and the sounds of staff talking gradually appeared outside the door.

This is still the convoy of the mining group. He Ao 'encountered' this convoy on the road and took a ride.

This motorcade was the same motorcade that He Ao took out of the city.

Although He Aok wasted time and estimated that the round trip time for the convoy would be about three days, he specifically followed the convoy route that Nell's father once mentioned in his memory and stayed for a period of time before he successfully arrived at this convoy.

He Ao has already obtained the convoy password, so it is easy to sneak in.

The convoy is a small convoy, and most of the carriages on the return trip are filled with rare ores or some furs.

Heao was leaning on the fur now.

Just like last time, after the vehicle stopped, the compartment was unlocked but not opened.

He Ao put down a stack of banknotes as fare, then gently opened the door and walked out. At this moment, the convoy seemed to be stopping in front of a fur warehouse.

There were still patrolling security personnel around, but He Ao was no longer as careful as he was the first time.

The physical fitness brought by the 'martial artist' and the various skills he accumulated allowed him to easily pass through the sight of the security personnel and return to the street.

He raised his head and looked at the brightly lit tall buildings in the distance.

This city is not as prosperous as Chenxi City, or even inferior to Kaya City. Under the flashing lights, there is a depressing twilight, and the continuous heavy snow has covered the city with a layer of silver.

It was like a gorgeous quilt covering a dead body.

It was nearly dawn when He Ao left Rock City, and when he returned here, night fell.

He needs to be alone in this dark city, waiting for the dawn.

He Ao took a few steps forward and passed a foreign object in a dark corner.

It was a man wearing a shabby coat. His face was covered by a messy beard, and his long beard was hung with crystal ice shards.

He looked young, thirty years old at most, huddled in the corner of the street.

White snow covered his shoulders, covering up his cracked leather shoes.

This is a homeless man, he remains in a crouched position, motionless.

He Ao slowly knelt down and reached out to touch his skin.

The cold and stiff touch quickly responded.

He Ao's touch seemed to destroy the original balance of the body. The stiff body fell to one side and fell to the ground. He Ao could clearly see his face under the beard. He was, 'laughing'.

This is a homeless man who froze to death.

As his body fell, a long plastic bag was revealed underneath him. It seemed to be his 'bed', and the shabby coat was all he had to keep warm.

He Ao straightened the homeless man's body and continued walking towards the center of the city.

Tomorrow morning, the staff of the city hall will take him to be cremated. The Rock City government has a special subsidy for the crematorium to cover the cost of cremating homeless people.

This subsidy is not much. In order to reduce costs, the crematorium will stack dozens of corpses on top of each other and put them in a large furnace for cremation.

After the cremation is completed, the ashes will not enter the private cemetery that needs to be rented, but will be pulled to the wilderness by the crematorium for burial.

Some crematoriums secretly dump ashes directly into sewers to save money.

These homeless people lost everything during their lifetime and will be left with nothing after their death.

Shortly after He Ao left, a mother with her child walked out of the night.

She staggered up to the dead homeless man and touched him.

After confirming that the homeless man was dead, he took off the homeless man's old coat with difficulty, then searched the deceased's pockets, found some loose change and put it into his pocket.

After rummaging through everything, she knelt down, crossed herself over the homeless man's body, clasped her hands together, and seemed to be repenting.

After a while, she stood up, put the shabby coat on the child, and walked away with difficulty.

In the shadow in the distance, He Ao stood at the end of the street, watching the mother leave.

If Nel was still young and had no other brothers and sisters in the family, he and his mother might end up in the same situation after his father died.

In Rock City, there are thousands of miner families like this.

There are more people who are gradually becoming homeless people freezing to death on the streets.

He Ao turned around and continued walking forward.

A huge and heavy shadow is covering the city. Countless dark tentacles stretch out from the shadow and reach every corner of the city.

These tentacles pressed against people's backs, suffocating them.
