Wandering in the swamp, the far north.
The cold wind and snow are like thousands of shuttles, weaving the endless white into a galaxy.
This place is not only the northernmost part of the college, but also the northernmost part of the entire Central continent. The temperature is below minus 20 degrees Celsius all year round, and it can even reach minus 100 degrees Celsius when it is coldest.
Extreme climates are natural barriers, just like the desert surrounding the oasis of Luoxia Province.
Only a few dense hair and fatty xenografts can move in this area.
However, in this frozen and bitter place, there are one of the most prosperous settlements on the wandering swamp.
Its name is Binghai City.
As the name suggests, this settlement is located on the shore of perpetual frozen.
The settlement hundreds of meters high is completely cast from alloy, just like a giant axe draped on an iceberg, and the metal wall emits a cold light in the wind and snow.
It is said that more than two centuries ago, this was once the seed bank of the Federation of People's Republic of China, and it was not transformed into a settlement until a century and a half ago, living in the earliest group of technicians who left the Post-War Reconstruction Committee.
Later, the Science and Technology Commission was established, which was classified as a management under the Science and Technology Commission.
However, although the Science and Technology Commission manages this place, because of the special nature of this settlement, the people living here do not have a hard time.
The howling wind and snow and the cold are blocked outside by the walls of the settlement. Apart from the seed areas embedded in the icebergs, you can feel the coldness of dozens of degrees below zero, the other production and living areas can even be said to be like spring in all seasons.
Apart from that, the people here are not hard work.
The most common job is gardeners, and the hardest work required is to regularly take care of some special crops grown in tropical climates in hot sweaty greenhouses, and spend most of the time drinking tea on the screen of the monitor.
In addition to the most common gardeners, the most sought-after position here is undoubtedly the assistants and apprentices recruited by the college’s genuine researcher.
Unlike the college’s editorial apprenticeship, the apprenticeship in Binghai City is just a job, usually tied to specific research projects, mainly for young survivors between the ages of 12 and 18 who have excellent higher education assessments.
Although the treatment of this position is no different from that of a gardener, it is an excellent opportunity for a child who is preparing for the exam in December every year to get in touch with his mentors and scientific research in advance.
As long as these young men and girls are a little smarter, they will not be so stupid that they offend their boss, they will receive some care.
After all, most of their bosses have also experienced that exam. They understand their current situation and are also preparing for exams that determine the fate of people while participating in the work.
Usually, just one or two tips can help these children avoid detours for several years.
When they pass the assessment and become real apprentices, a letter of recommendation or just a name on their work resume will allow them to spend their apprenticeship more easily than children from other areas of the Science and Technology Commission, and even gain the recognition of a tutor, skip the rank of an exploration officer, and become a glorious researcher.
Even if you take a step back and fail to get into the college after taking the exam for N years, you have to give up your position to others when you reach the age of 18. This apprentice from Binghai City can usually get a good position in your settlement due to your scientific research experience, and even enter the management of the Science and Technology Committee to start another life.
It is precisely because of the favorable conditions here that any researcher with some energy and deep feelings for his family will find ways to stuff his family into this settlement.
Researchers who went out of this settlement will take care of their hometowns and help this settlement within their ability.
It is precisely because of this that although the researcher of the college does not directly participate in the management of the gathering place under the Science and Technology Commission, the settlement of Binghai City still has a transcendent status, and even formed a regional faction named Binghai City within the students.
However, because the academy has relatively indifferent human relationships and weak interpersonal relationships, factions maintained by blood and geographical lines are not as strong as factions maintained with direct interests, this faction is not very good at ranking and is only influential on some irrelevant issues.
For example, the special zone jointly established by the alliance and the college.
For the college, this special zone can be built anywhere in the science and technology committee. Anyway, the core interests of most researchers are within the college.
So, the special zone landed in Binghai City.
It has been half a year since the Special Administrative Region was launched, and some refuge residents from the alliance have indeed brought a lot of interesting new things to the local area.
Whether material or spiritual, their optimism and courage are something that people here have never seen in a long time.
certainly.
These guys who come from afar don't bring all joy.
On the apron of the dome of Binghai City, a long shuttle-shaped aircraft slowly landed and stopped.
A frozen dormant compartment was lifted down and placed on the snow.
Two old men, a man and a woman, stood at the entrance of the apron. They were wearing very thick cold-proof clothes, snuggling together, staring at the coffin that had sunk into the snow in silence.
The transparent mask crawled with a layer of white frost, and the expressions on the two of them could not be seen clearly.
But from that silent atmosphere, the people around them could feel the permeated sadness.
A soldier wearing an exoskeleton walked past the snow and walked to the two old men. He tapped his left arm twice with his index finger, spread a holographic screen as big as a palm on his arm, and gently pushed it in front of the two old men.
Sacrifice for sorrow.
The woman who saw the photo on the holographic screen shook her body and seemed to faint.
The husband, who was standing aside, hugged her shoulder with his arm, looked at the soldier saying nothing, but just nodded silently.
The three of them communicated with only that sentence.
After the soldier nodded, he turned back to the shuttle-shaped aircraft.
The silver-white fuselage slowly rose, and a dark blue flame surged from the tail, disappearing into the boundless wind and snow, as if it had never been...
More than a dozen residents of Binghai City stood at the entrance of the apron, leaning their arms together, and holding a simple funeral for the pity-worthy child.
Later, his body will be sent for cremation, partly preserved as a memory, partly sprinkled into the flying wind and snow.
Standing by the floor-to-ceiling window in the settlement, several players wearing exoskeletons cast interesting sights on the apron.
They recognized that soldier's equipment, especially the gas mask embedded in his helmet, was undoubtedly a member of Task Force Alpha.
To be honest, this game is really realistic.Even if the NPC who was killed by the plot in the background board also has a complete life.
They just heard about the defeat thousands of kilometers away on the forum, but they didn't expect that within a few days they could see the body dragged down from the front line in the game.
If you change to other games, an insignificant NPC, which is like this, you may have to make up the numbers in the cutscene and then refresh it.
...I thought the members of the Alpha Task Force were poor people who couldn't eat potatoes.
A power player muttered, with an obvious unexpected expression on his face.
The agility player next to him also nodded and said with emotion.
Unexpectedly, there were guys from Binghai City.
They have been in this settlement for a while, and they are quite familiar with the local situation.
Even if I use the Ideal City as a reference, the lives of local residents can definitely be considered rich, just not as good as those of the college's prospectors and researchers.
Whether that guy is seeking excitement, pursuing a different life and ideal, or just out of rebellion against dogma, joining Alpha takes courage.
Another intellectual player interrupted.
But at least his relatives can receive the urn, but others may not be.
The power player shrugged his shoulders.
That is the two sides of the world.
While they were talking, the group arrived at the exit of the settlement through the elevator and got on the all-terrain tracked truck that was already waiting there.
Their mission today is to head to the nearby ruins of Molokova City, collect local fruiting samples and bring them to researchers at the Alliance Institute of Biology stationed in Ice Sea City.
Deep in the ruins was a dormant mother nest, just below the subway station. Due to the camouflage effect produced by a large number of spore jackets, the existing technical means could not determine its specific location.
The fruit entities produced by the mother nest are also quite distinctive, very good at disguise, can integrate with the environment, and suddenly launch an attack after the prey is approaching.
The current long-term goal of the Mustard Community Special Zone is to find the specific coordinates of the mother nest and eat it with a small feather. The medium- and short-term goal is to analyze the mother nest and provide reference data for mustard mucin research projects in various regions of the Mustard Community.
Although it is only a small job, any huge plan is composed of countless such small jobs.
Just as the group left, a man and a woman stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window where they had stopped.
Looking at the dormant warehouse outside the window, Jiang Xuezhou's face was filled with complex expressions.
She didn't know the parents, and it was even more impossible for her to know the person lying in the dormant cabin.
She just suddenly thought that if she had not been able to come out of shelter No. 0 that day, but would die in this wasteland like countless researchers who had encountered accidents...
Her heart tightened slightly, she lowered her head for a moment, and said in a low voice.
Hello……
Seeing Jiang Xuezhou's heavy face, Ye Shi, who was standing next to him, made a helpless expression.
What's wrong with you?
Jiang Xuezhou continued in a low voice.
...I want to go home.
Go back.
Ye Shi looked at her strangely. Do you need to tell me this kind of thing specifically?
His lips moved, and Jiang Xuezhou was a little difficult to speak, but he finally spoke.
...Can you accompany me back?
Since she became an apprentice, she hasn't been back for a long time, and she has no idea how to face those familiar and unfamiliar relatives, so she subconsciously wants to find a trusted partner to accompany her to go back.
When Ye Shi heard this little thing, he didn't think much about it and simply agreed.
OK, when?
Jiang Xuezhou was stunned.
She just mentioned it casually and didn't even plan for the specific time to go back. She didn't expect that the wooden man would agree so simply and even asked when he would set off.
…Then…what tomorrow?
She said this sentence without any preparation, and it was not until then that she suddenly realized something, and her cheeks gradually became hot.
However, what she didn't know was that a guy didn't think so much, just when an exclamation mark appeared on the NPC's head.
no problem……
Looking at Jiang Xuezhou whose face suddenly turned red like an apple, Ye Shi couldn't help but have a strange expression on his face.
This guy has been distracted lately.
Could it be a fever?
……
The front line thousands of kilometers away.
The scorching flames even melted the snow on the Blood Mountain.
The roar of artillery fire was shocking the sky and the earth, followed by crackling gunfire and roar of mutants.
It seemed to be in order to avenge the previous shame, Alpha Task Force re-formed a more careful combat plan based on the intelligence collected in the previous battle and launched a more fierce offensive than before.
This time, not only were two squadrons with a size of 100 people pushed to the front line, but a total of ten squadrons with a total of 1,000 people!
The two sides launched a fierce exchange of fire in the cave.
Under the cover of the drone attack formation, teams filled the cave in an orderly manner, and saw someone coming in, no one coming out of it.
Looking at the fierce offensive Alpha Mobile Team, General Modlin, standing halfway up the mountain of Duanbian Mountain, couldn't help but show a look of surprise on his face.
Including the adjutant standing next to him, there was a hint of disbelief on his face.
...Did these guys take drugs?Looking at the direction of the front line, he muttered to himself.
In just three days, those dead guys seemed to have changed.
Although he couldn't see the situation in the cave, just looking at the momentum of those guys, he could clearly feel the difference between those people.
Maybe you've guessed it right.General Modlin frowned and pressed down the telescope in his hand.
The Supreme Command of the Alliance revealed the characteristics of the Alpha Protozoa.
If we follow that standard, the entire 310,000-man team may only be punished and some awakened people with strong physical strength that can block the erosion of the red mist.
It has been shown in the operation three days ago that Task Force Alpha is not good at physical strength.
Without changing equipment, he could only suspect that these guys should have taken some immune-enhancing drugs or installed a bionic plug-in that can fight infection.
In addition, there was another thing that caught his attention.
That is, he only saw these people going in waves, but no one came out of them.
Either they died there at the last moment of fighting, or they should have gained some ability to continue to recover during the battle.
Thinking of this, General Modlin couldn't help but feel a hint of interest in his eyes, and he couldn't help but look forward to the outcome of this battle.
It was not only General Modlin who watched the battle, but also Commander Quanshui, the commander of the Storm Corps and Commander of the Death Corps.
The two of them stood halfway up the mountain of Duanbian Mountain, staring at the battlefield close to Chi Chi.
Mom...a gang of ruthless people.There was a shocking expression on his face, and the edge of the stroke couldn't help but sigh.
Not counting those clones who don’t have complete minds, this is the first time he has seen a guy who is as afraid of death as they do in this game.
Indeed... Commander Quanshui nodded in agreement, holding the telescope and staring at the battle situation on the front line.
In a sense, this time the torch is really a match for the opponent.
Although the academy's attitude towards blue jackets is quite friendly, he still has to complain that ordinary people are really not their opponents when it comes to being inhumane.
One thousand biological prosthetics were inoculated in three days, and one-third of the frontline Alpha changed his post on the spot, and directly changed from a mechanized soldier to a semi-biological semi-mechanized soldier.
Although Xiaoyu is still quite cute after watching it for a long time, it doesn’t seem to be a big deal if you change your skin occasionally, but all this is based on the premise of being able to resurrect.
If he cannot be resurrected or if he is resurrected, he will not wash away the biological prosthesis. He feels that even in the game, he will probably have to hesitate to install this thing.
Just as the coalition commanders were watching the battle, the Beast King standing on Blood Mountain also overlooked the entire battlefield.
And the expressionless face also had a clear expression of surprise.
What is that?
His mouth kept muttering, his eyes filled with surprise, unable to believe what he saw in the eyes of those mutants, and even more uncomprehensible.
He saw a soldier from Task Force Alpha Mobile Team pierced through his chest by a mutant mutant, and then he threw it out hard.
The passionate blood even scattered on its head, and the hot touch could never be a illusion simulated by holographic technology.
For humans, that is undoubtedly fatal trauma.
However, as soon as he wiped the blood stuck to the thorn, he saw the unconscious soldier twitching suddenly, then he lay on his side and grabbed the rifle, sweeping it around.
Unpredictable, several electromagnetically accelerated projectiles shattered the mutant's chest and brain.
He also lost his perception of the mutant in an instant and returned to God's perspective with a blank look on his face.
The fierce battle continues.
These guys wearing gas masks seem to have found a way to fight the poisonous fog.
And not only that, their recovery ability has also become stronger, as if they have become another species overnight.
Haha...hahahaha!
The astonishment of his eyes gradually turned into fanaticism, and he suddenly burst into laughter when he looked down at his feet.
Fun...it's so fun!
Do you actively inoculate fruiting entities of benign varieties to obtain immunity before being infected with spores of lycopene?
These old things are not as rigid as he imagined, and they are also able to adapt.
Sure enough, it is interesting to compete with such an idea-worthy opponent.
He can't learn anything except getting a batch of organic matter when fighting those Willant people.
Looking down at the Alpha Task Force members who were waiting for battle at the foot of the mountain, the Beast King said in a very light voice.
...I want to understand the secrets of those guys. Can you please eat them?
That is not the sound transmitted through sound waves, but the communication between consciousness and consciousness.
After waiting for about a few minutes, the dull sound like an ancient bell slowly came into his sea of consciousness.
I think...it's better you don't let that guy get close to me.
The Beast King was slightly stunned and frowned slightly.
Can't eat it?
The Lord of the Plague, located deep in the mountain, spoke slowly.
Generally speaking, we evolve to devour other organisms, and the devouring of other maternal nests is just an accident in evolution.That guy is different. Its evolutionary logic is completely opposite to ours. It exists purely to devour other slime molds, and can coexist with the humans who raise it.
Like the green-skinned guys who can tolerate my smell and even worship me, you can understand it as… it’s the ‘mutants’ among ‘us’.
He paused, and the voice continued.
I could feel from that disgusting breath that the guy had swallowed at least two of his kind...I already had so many adorable kids that I didn't want to be the next one.
Those believers are its children.
It has never seen anything so interesting, embracing the twists it gives to them with cheers and love, rather than being afraid of its appearance.
The guy named Beast King told it that this is the belief of human beings, and they regard themselves as the mothers who give them life, and even the gods!
It likes the title Lord of Plague, and prefers believers who cheer their names, and even loves them more than their own sub-entities.
It is precisely because of this that it will feed them with its flesh and blood, and select the guy who is the most pious of faith as the prophet of plague, and then use that guy as the seedling bed for producing spores, giving them stronger evolutionary factors.
In a sense, they are its subentities, at least part of it.
It has high hopes for them, hoping that they can continue to expand their populations until they occupy the entire planet and go to conquer the farther world with their faith in themselves.
One day, they who shouted their names would return to their mother Gaia instead.
Maybe they can also bring her a sentence for themselves.
The Beast King pondered for a moment and suddenly spoke.
Then if you can devour it, wouldn’t it also gain the ability to devour other slime molds?
He thought of the forest in Baiyue Province, where Nago was born, and Nago's weakness was there.
If the mother nest there could be swallowed up, their kingdom of heaven would have no weakness.
The Lord of the Plague was silent for a moment and spoke slowly.
That's right, but...its ontology does not seem to be here, and so far it's only its subentities.My fruit entities can digest them, but that is just a physical digestion.If I were to eat them, I would probably have indigestion.
So that's it... I understand.The Beast King nodded thoughtfully.
This is indeed a problem.
However, they can solve the problem with scientific methods, such as harmlessly making the samples and feeding them.
certainly.
That's after taking over Qingquan City.
Don't worry about this for now... My children are praying for my help, and you should have heard their crying sounds too.Looking at the Beast King who seemed to be distracted, the voice of the Lord of the Plague was urging.
The battle situation on Blood Mountain is becoming increasingly unfavorable to its children.
Not only its children, but also itself, are put in danger.
It has a premonition.
It would be awful if the guys carrying other slime mold fruiting entities were allowed to enter its nest.
The Beast King nodded slowly, turned around and looked at the gray sky in the southeast.
That is the direction of Haiya Province.
Standing on the top of Blood Mountain, you can even see the gray fog that is filled with it and the prosperous country hidden in the gray fog.
He admitted that the fruit entities that were hosting people were beyond his expectations.
But if these guys think they can beat him with one or two unexpected cards, they would be too underestimated.
They set foot on this barren and chaotic land many years before these old people noticed this land.
It took them more than ten years to manage the seeds to take root and sprout, bloom and bear fruit.
All the land from Shifeng Mountain to the Weifu wasteland is his territory, and the Kingdom of Heaven has arrived here a long time ago.
These guys just built a few houses on it and took down a few hills, thinking that it was their territory.
It was always his territory there.
He will let them remember this profound lesson.
Don't worry.
The Beast King waved his hand gently, and the red mist wrapped around the mountain seemed to be in a daze for a moment, and then it was replaced by the slowly rising gray-green thick fog.
It's time to fog.
The cold wind and snow are like thousands of shuttles, weaving the endless white into a galaxy.
This place is not only the northernmost part of the college, but also the northernmost part of the entire Central continent. The temperature is below minus 20 degrees Celsius all year round, and it can even reach minus 100 degrees Celsius when it is coldest.
Extreme climates are natural barriers, just like the desert surrounding the oasis of Luoxia Province.

OK, when?
Jiang Xuezhou was stunned.
She just mentioned it casually and didn't even plan for the specific time to go back. She didn't expect that the wooden man would agree so simply and even asked when he would set off.

Without changing equipment, he could only suspect that these guys should have taken some immune-enhancing drugs or installed a bionic plug-in that can fight infection.
In addition, there was another thing that caught his attention.
That is, he only saw these people going in waves, but no one came out of them.
Either they died there at the last moment of fighting, or they should have gained some ability to continue to recover during the battle.
Thinking of this, General Modlin couldn't help but feel a hint of interest in his eyes, and he couldn't help but look forward to the outcome of this battle.
It was not only General Modlin who watched the battle, but also Commander Quanshui, the commander of the Storm Corps and Commander of the Death Corps.
The two of them stood halfway up the mountain of Duanbian Mountain, staring at the battlefield close to Chi Chi.
Mom...a gang of ruthless people.There was a shocking expression on his face, and the edge of the stroke couldn't help but sigh.
Not counting those clones who don’t have complete minds, this is the first time he has seen a guy who is as afraid of death as they do in this game.
Indeed... Commander Quanshui nodded in agreement, holding the telescope and staring at the battle situation on the front line.
In a sense, this time the torch is really a match for the opponent.
Although the academy's attitude towards blue jackets is quite friendly, he still has to complain that ordinary people are really not their opponents when it comes to being inhumane.
One thousand biological prosthetics were inoculated in three days, and one-third of the frontline Alpha changed his post on the spot, and directly changed from a mechanized soldier to a semi-biological semi-mechanized soldier.
Although Xiaoyu is still quite cute after watching it for a long time, it doesn’t seem to be a big deal if you change your skin occasionally, but all this is based on the premise of being able to resurrect.
If he cannot be resurrected or if he is resurrected, he will not wash away the biological prosthesis. He feels that even in the game, he will probably have to hesitate to install this thing.
Just as the coalition commanders were watching the battle, the Beast King standing on Blood Mountain also overlooked the entire battlefield.
And the expressionless face also had a clear expression of surprise.
What is that?
His mouth kept muttering, his eyes filled with surprise, unable to believe what he saw in the eyes of those mutants, and even more uncomprehensible.
He saw a soldier from Task Force Alpha Mobile Team pierced through his chest by a mutant mutant, and then he threw it out hard.
The passionate blood even scattered on its head, and the hot touch could never be a illusion simulated by holographic technology.
For humans, that is undoubtedly fatal trauma.
However, as soon as he wiped the blood stuck to the thorn, he saw the unconscious soldier twitching suddenly, then he lay on his side and grabbed the rifle, sweeping it around.
Unpredictable, several electromagnetically accelerated projectiles shattered the mutant's chest and brain.
He also lost his perception of the mutant in an instant and returned to God's perspective with a blank look on his face.
The fierce battle continues.
These guys wearing gas masks seem to have found a way to fight the poisonous fog.
And not only that, their recovery ability has also become stronger, as if they have become another species overnight.
Haha...hahahaha!
The astonishment of his eyes gradually turned into fanaticism, and he suddenly burst into laughter when he looked down at his feet.
Fun...it's so fun!
Do you actively inoculate fruiting entities of benign varieties to obtain immunity before being infected with spores of lycopene?
These old things are not as rigid as he imagined, and they are also able to adapt.
Sure enough, it is interesting to compete with such an idea-worthy opponent.
He can't learn anything except getting a batch of organic matter when fighting those Willant people.
Looking down at the Alpha Task Force members who were waiting for battle at the foot of the mountain, the Beast King said in a very light voice.
...I want to understand the secrets of those guys. Can you please eat them?
That is not the sound transmitted through sound waves, but the communication between consciousness and consciousness.
After waiting for about a few minutes, the dull sound like an ancient bell slowly came into his sea of consciousness.
I think...it's better you don't let that guy get close to me.
The Beast King was slightly stunned and frowned slightly.
Can't eat it?
The Lord of the Plague, located deep in the mountain, spoke slowly.
Generally speaking, we evolve to devour other organisms, and the devouring of other maternal nests is just an accident in evolution.That guy is different. Its evolutionary logic is completely opposite to ours. It exists purely to devour other slime molds, and can coexist with the humans who raise it.
Like the green-skinned guys who can tolerate my smell and even worship me, you can understand it as… it’s the ‘mutants’ among ‘us’.
He paused, and the voice continued.
I could feel from that disgusting breath that the guy had swallowed at least two of his kind...I already had so many adorable kids that I didn't want to be the next one.
Those believers are its children.
It has never seen anything so interesting, embracing the twists it gives to them with cheers and love, rather than being afraid of its appearance.
The guy named Beast King told it that this is the belief of human beings, and they regard themselves as the mothers who give them life, and even the gods!
It likes the title Lord of Plague, and prefers believers who cheer their names, and even loves them more than their own sub-entities.
It is precisely because of this that it will feed them with its flesh and blood, and select the guy who is the most pious of faith as the prophet of plague, and then use that guy as the seedling bed for producing spores, giving them stronger evolutionary factors.
In a sense, they are its subentities, at least part of it.
It has high hopes for them, hoping that they can continue to expand their populations until they occupy the entire planet and go to conquer the farther world with their faith in themselves.
One day, they who shouted their names would return to their mother Gaia instead.
Maybe they can also bring her a sentence for themselves.
The Beast King pondered for a moment and suddenly spoke.
Then if you can devour it, wouldn’t it also gain the ability to devour other slime molds?
He thought of the forest in Baiyue Province, where Nago was born, and Nago's weakness was there.
If the mother nest there could be swallowed up, their kingdom of heaven would have no weakness.
The Lord of the Plague was silent for a moment and spoke slowly.
That's right, but...its ontology does not seem to be here, and so far it's only its subentities.My fruit entities can digest them, but that is just a physical digestion.If I were to eat them, I would probably have indigestion.
So that's it... I understand.The Beast King nodded thoughtfully.
This is indeed a problem.
However, they can solve the problem with scientific methods, such as harmlessly making the samples and feeding them.
certainly.
That's after taking over Qingquan City.
Don't worry about this for now... My children are praying for my help, and you should have heard their crying sounds too.Looking at the Beast King who seemed to be distracted, the voice of the Lord of the Plague was urging.
The battle situation on Blood Mountain is becoming increasingly unfavorable to its children.
Not only its children, but also itself, are put in danger.
It has a premonition.
It would be awful if the guys carrying other slime mold fruiting entities were allowed to enter its nest.
The Beast King nodded slowly, turned around and looked at the gray sky in the southeast.
That is the direction of Haiya Province.
Standing on the top of Blood Mountain, you can even see the gray fog that is filled with it and the prosperous country hidden in the gray fog.
He admitted that the fruit entities that were hosting people were beyond his expectations.
But if these guys think they can beat him with one or two unexpected cards, they would be too underestimated.
They set foot on this barren and chaotic land many years before these old people noticed this land.
It took them more than ten years to manage the seeds to take root and sprout, bloom and bear fruit.
All the land from Shifeng Mountain to the Weifu wasteland is his territory, and the Kingdom of Heaven has arrived here a long time ago.
These guys just built a few houses on it and took down a few hills, thinking that it was their territory.
It was always his territory there.
He will let them remember this profound lesson.
Don't worry.
The Beast King waved his hand gently, and the red mist wrapped around the mountain seemed to be in a daze for a moment, and then it was replaced by the slowly rising gray-green thick fog.
It's time to fog.
