Chapter 209 - 209 I Can Add Money!
209 I Can Add Money!
After all, the “food” on the city wall was already engraved into the DNA of these mutated beasts.
Um, he just didn’t know if they had DNA.
When Wei Zhou, who was in the front passenger seat, heard Lin Ye’s words, he shook his head slightly.
“I’m not too sure about this either.”
“However, this kind of situation is not rare ~”
Hearing this old mercenary Wei Zhou say so, Lin Ye simply did not ask further.
After about two to three hundred beasts disappeared from everyone’s sight, the car started again.
However, in less than five minutes, Wei Jianbin could not help but stop the car again.
Another group of mutated beasts appeared in front of him.
Moreover, this time, other than Blood Wolf and the monkeys with the sticks, there was also a black gorilla in the team.
“Why is even the gorilla here?”
After encountering this situation twice in a row, even the knowledgeable Wei Zhou began to mutter.
He looked at the map and then looked at Wei Jianbin in the driver’s seat.
“Is this the way to Qingquan City?”
Wei Jianbin took a deep puff of his cigarette and gently knocked on the car door twice with his calloused hands.
“Yes, I’ve walked through it countless times back then. I can’t be wrong.”
“Did you encounter such a situation at that time?”
After blowing out a smoke ring, Wei Jianbin shook his head.
“There were not as many mutated beasts back then as there are now.
After the mutated beasts that looked like they were undergoing a “great migration” in the animal world were gone, Wei Jianbin drove on.
In the next few kilometers, Lin Ye and the others encountered this situation three times in succession.
When he saw a python as thick as a bucket appear on the road in front of him, Weizhou was stunned.
He turned to look at Lin Ye at the back and said sincerely,
“Mr. Lin, the situation in front… might not be good.”
“Do you still want to continue forward?”
“Of course, if you give up on the mission, I can make the decision to refund the three levels of commission to you. Just treat it as making friends.
Hearing Wei Zhou’s words, Wang Bo could not help but wink at his team.
He could even return this money?!
Unfortunately, he could only say that he had made a fool of himself.
Wei Zhou ignored Wang Bo.
Lin Ye also sensed that something was wrong today.
Moreover, this situation was a little similar to the commotion caused by the two little thieves following them after they killed the Ice Snapping Turtle by the lake that day.
However, Lin Ye and the others did not discover that very smelly blood along the way. They did not even smell it.
“Do you know why these mutated beasts are running that way?”
Wei Zhou smiled bitterly.
“If I knew, I wouldn’t have persuaded you to go back.”
“However, from the number of mutated beasts we encountered in these few waves, there are no less than 5,000 mutated beasts gathered in the direction of Clear Spring City.”
“This is already a large beast tide.”
“If we’re surrounded, it’s very difficult for us to escape.”
Lin Ye nodded in understanding.
“Then why didn’t they attack us just now?”
“Didn’t they say that mutated beasts have very sharp noses? Moreover, humans are one of their favorite foods.”
Seeing that Lin Ye was still asking questions like a “curious baby” at a time like this without any panic on his face, Wei Zhou sensed that something was wrong.
If he was really a young master who had never seen the world, then this young master was a little too calm…
Suppressing his curiosity about Lin Ye’s identity, Wei Zhou shook his head.
“This is the first time I’ve encountered such a situation.”
On the other hand, Wei Jianbin, who was in the driver’s seat, seemed to know something.
Lin Ye could not see Wei Jianbin’s expression, so he could not discover any clues.
However, he clearly did not want to leave just like that.
“How about this? Let’s go over and take a look from afar.”
“It would naturally be best if we can find out what happened.”
“As for the money, there’s no need to return it. How about that?”
Hearing the sponsor speak, Wei Zhou looked at Wei Jianbin, who seemed to know something.
Wei Jianbin pondered for a moment and nodded at Wei Zhou.
Seeing this, Wei Zhou immediately agreed.
“Alright, let’s go take a look.”
“Do you have any objections?”
Wang Bo and Wu San’er immediately shook their heads.
What a joke. He was earning money ~
However…
“Ahem, Old Wei, drive carefully. Don’t bring everyone into the beast tide!”
In the driver’s seat, Wei Jianbin gestured at him and directly stepped on the accelerator.
On this Wasteland, Lin Ye discovered that as they drove forward, the more mutated beasts they encountered.
Moreover, the variety was beginning to increase.
Unfortunately, he did not see any bear-type mutated beasts.
“The bridge is only a kilometer away.”
“After crossing that bridge, we’ll reach the pre-war area of Clear Spring City.
Just as Wei Zhou finished speaking, their car could not help but stop again.
This time, even without Wei Jianbin’s reminder, everyone in the car knew the reason.
A large number of all kinds of beasts appeared in front of him.
Although the largest number were still the “specialties” of Jiangzhou City, the Blood Wolf and the Stick Monkey, there were also many other types of mutated beasts.
At the end of this large beast tide, Lin Ye discovered that flames seemed to flash from time to time.
At this moment, Wang Bo handed Lin Ye a pair of binoculars at the right time.
“Thank you ~”
After receiving the binoculars, Lin Ye finally saw the source of the flames at the end of the beast tide clearly.
A group of people was hiding behind some relatively simple horses and using various abilities and weapons to attack these mutated beasts.
There were also more than ten large trucks surrounding a camp.
On this “camp”, there were some soldiers in army uniforms attacking these mutated beasts.
Moreover, the strange thing was that very few of these mutated beasts fought back.
It was as if they was simply passing by.
Only some mutated beasts with higher levels would think of counterattacking after being attacked.
It did not even go all the way.
For example, the python as thick as a bucket.
After casually biting to death a person who looked like a mercenary, it directly chased the mutated beasts in front of him and accelerated forward.
Just as Lin Ye was observing and puzzled, Wang Bo’s voice sounded in the car.
“Isn’t this the group of mercenaries the army pulled over yesterday?”
“I just saw Old Liu and the others.”
Weizhou put down the binoculars and nodded slightly.
“Yes, that’s them.”
“Then what’s wrong with these mutated beasts?”
Before Lin Ye could ask, Wang Bo could not help but speak.
Beast tides of this scale were very rare in the wild.
Moreover… it actually did not attack humans?!
“It should be that a mutated beast similar to the royal family has woken up in front, or it has been attacked.”
Wei Jianbin’s sudden words made the other four people in the car prick up their ears.
Lin Ye even leaned forward.
Wei Zhou looked at Wei Jianbin in surprise.
“Royal mutated beast? Is there really such a mutated beast?”
Wei Yushu nodded affirmatively.
“Yes, there is.”
“Although it hasn’t appeared much all these years, it definitely exists.”
Hearing the words of the two old mercenaries in front of him, Wang Bo panicked.
“Wait, what royal mutated beast? Why haven’t I heard of it?”
“I’ve been a mercenary for five to six years!”
Wei Zhou turned to look at Wang Bo, his big nose filled with mockery.
“Have you attended the Mutant Academy?”
Wang Bo: “Uh…”
Wei Jianbin ignored Wang Bo’s doubts.
He explained,
“The royal mutated beasts are similar to those polluters during the beast tide. They can command various mutated beasts.
“However, compared to the polluter, these mutated beasts can’t resist the orders of the royal mutated beasts.
“Even if it means letting these mutated beasts stand and wait for death.”
“Moreover, the smell of a royal mutated beast or a certain signal is good. It can be spread far.
“In other words, it can command all the mutated beasts in that area.”
“The undisputed king.”
Then this description was very suitable for the title of “Royal Mutated Beast”.
“So, is this king mutated beast the one who made these mutated beasts not attack?”
Hearing Lin Ye’s words, Wei Jianbin nodded.
Tsk ~
“Why don’t… we go over and take a look? Ask those mercenaries or army soldiers?”
Wei Zhou looked at the densely packed mutated beasts in front of him and his lips moved.
“I can pay more.”
