Evolution From the Big Tree
Chapter 324: Turbulent Times in Deadwood Wetlands“One person, one mountain, called ‘immortal’…” murmuring softly, the horde of Mutant Beasts looked at each other.
For some reason, when the word ‘immortal’ was uttered by Golden Monkey, everyone felt a faint sense of suffocation.
“Elder Sister…” doubtful, White Tiger called out, looking towards the nearby Nine Tails.
“I understand.” Nodding slightly, Nine Tails’ gaze shifted towards the Mutant Beasts.
“Let’s put this matter aside for now. We’ll discuss it with Divine Tree when we come back.” Having stated this, Nine Tails cast a profound gaze in the direction where Golden Monkey had left, her eyes flickering uncontrollably.
[Indeed, just as Master had speculated, you have secrets.] Nine Tails muttered in her heart, choosing to not dwell on it further.
At present, the most important thing was the Spirit Flower with limitless potential.
[If Humans got their hands on it, Master would gain a formidable enemy.] Thinking of this, Nine Tails exchanged a glance with Brewmaster before lifting her feet, heading south.
The Deadwood Wetlands were remote, with rare signs of Human activity. Even Mutant Beasts had scarce footprints.However, on this night…
*Roar, Roar, Roar…* The endless beastly roars reverberating across the forest sent shivers down the spine. Furthermore, sharp, high-pitch screeches could also be heard coming from the night sky, ones that could almost tear through the eardrums.
In the sky, giant Mutant Birds were hidden in the depths of the clouds. Accompanying them were swarms of Mutant Bee, Mutant locusts, and more.
“It’s really lively.” Suddenly, a cold and sinister laughter broke the silence at an entrance to the Deadwood Wetlands. Immediately after, other Humans in the vicinity suddenly noticed a convoy of armored vehicles, bearing an emblem depicting a massive blue sea wave, slowly approaching.
“It’s Zhenhai City, why are they here?”
“Yeah, aren’t they supposed to be along the coast? Why did they come inland?”
“No need to say, it must be because this Spirit Flower is too precious and has alarmed them.”
In the midst of a sudden uproar, the gazes of numerous people flickered.
However, this was not the time to care about these things, as the next moment…
*Boom, boom, boom…* Half of the Deadwood Wetlands’ ground trembled, and leaves were sent swirling into the air.
Looking at the beast tide surging into the Deadwood Wetlands, hundreds of giant gray wolves, an expression of schadenfreude appeared on the faces of Humans.
“Here comes another group seeking death.”
“Are these packs of wolves idiots? Didn’t they look at the sky? Can’t they see that there are still so many Mutant Beasts and even us Humans watching?”
“Who knows?”
Amidst another commotion, most of the crowd burst into disdainful laughter. If entering the Deadwood Wetlands were that straightforward, the area wouldn’t be encircled in layers.
However, there was one silver line in all this. Most Humans came from the southeast, while the beast tide mostly came from the northwest.
In this diagonal confrontation, Humans and Mutant Beasts had surprisingly maintained a strange balance.
At this moment…
*Rooaar..* A mournful wolf howl shook the night sky.
Immediately after, consecutive mournful wolf howls reverberated through the wetlands.
At this moment, if one looked towards the northwest of the Deadwood Wetlands from a mountain peak, they would be astonished to see hundreds of gray wolves attacking and cannibalizing each other.
In just a brief period, the number of giant gray wolves was halved, and a strong nauseating smell of blood permeated the air.
“They lost their mind as well,” a sigh escaped from a young man draped in a white windbreaker, holding a rusty long sword, his eyes revealing contemplation.
“Hehe… Is this the so-called great terror you mentioned…”
With a sharp and piercing wicked laughter, a young man with pale skin and snake-like elongated pupils appeared beside the White Emperor, Wang Hao.
“Except for Tier-2 Superhumans like us and some undaunted Tier-1 Superhumans, it’s difficult for others to even enter the Deadwood Wetlands. isn’t that just perfect?” Zhao Jiao coldly smiled and looked at the crowd in the distance, before stating disdainfully, “A group of ants still dreaming of stealing from a tiger’s mouth!?”
“Ants…” Helplessly sighing, Wang Hao tightened his grip on the long sword in his hand.
[As always, this guy is so condescending.]
Of course, what Wang Hao found most repulsive was Zhao Jiao’s disregard for life in his words, which seemed to be engraved in his bones.
Just at this moment, as if sensing the change in White Emperor’s mood, Zhao Jiao raised his eyebrows and sneered, “Are you still concerned about these ants?”
Saying that, Zhao Jiao kicked the ground and with a swoosh, he swiftly slid towards the depths of the Deadwood Wetlands, like a pitch-black python.
“You…” Zhao Jiao’s actions brought a frown on White Emperor’s forehead, but he did not say much.
Instead, his Spiritual Energy surged before he transformed into a streak of light, chasing towards the direction where Zhao Jiao disappeared.
He had stayed here just to wait for this guy.
Now that Zhao Jiao had arrived, he naturally had no reason to stay any longer.
It was worth mentioning that although they have incompatible personalities, they were surprisingly friends.
No, not really friends. It could only be considered a kind of mutual acknowledgment of opponents. If they were to fight, both of them would try to kill each other, without even batting so much as an eye.
Nonetheless, in situations like venturing deep into the wetlands, these two could entrust their backs to each other without worry.
It was a strange and contradictory relationship, but also the deepest bond between the two.
However, just as the two entered the Deadwood Wetlands, powerful Superhumans shot out from the crowd one after another, as if receiving some-kind of signal.
Among them, 40-50 were just Tier-1 Superhumans.
Furthermore, there were many mysterious individuals with unfathomable auras quietly following behind them.
And right at this very instant, two voices suddenly emerged in the crowd, “There are quite a few people trying to fish in troubled waters.”
“Nothing can be done about it. These Deadwood Wetlands are too mysterious. Without powerful Superhumans like White Emperor and Zhao Jiao leading the way, ordinary Superhumans wouldn’t really dare to venture in.”
“That’s true. However, that big fat guy wearing the hat and a raincoat, does he think that we won’t recognize him? In any case, he is the Mayor of a city, and a well-known Tier-2 Superhuman in China. I didn’t expect to see him of all people acting all sneaky like this.”
“Tsk tsk, everyone is selfish. If one can get his hands on the Spirit Treasure, what’s the harm in it? Anyway, it seems that this fatty has decided to devour the Spirit Treasure alone.”
“That goes without saying. After seizing the Spirit Treasure, if he denies everything, the government won’t be able to say anything. Thinking about it, these Mayors are fucking cool, they are like local kings, each one following their own rules instead of the government.”
However, just as this conversation concluded, a cold snort echoed in the air. “Control yourself, remember your identity.”
“Yes, Sir, Dragon Guard’s Nine will keep it in mind.”
