Chapter 1480: line with translation of chapter title

Lin An

Anduyin

I don't know if it's because he lost his great mental strength, but with his body weak, Lin An's emotions are no longer as calm as before; he can't stay composed at all times.

The sharp sounds and chaotic scenes made him somewhat irritable.

It was as if he couldn't block out useless emotions, and he even felt somewhat infected by the chaos here.

Streams of unknown pheromones were affecting him again.

Supporting Lin An at his side, Anduyin looked puzzled at the Lin An who kept stopping and starting.

He could tell that Lin An seemed somewhat unaccustomed to this place.

Huaxia

Faction: Long An

They didn't know what Lin An was going to do, but the sight of him falling was so strange that they could only regard him as a lifeline.

Faced with Anduyin's question, Lin An hesitated, shook his head, and didn't say much more.

After losing his power, he seemed to have become an ordinary person in every way.

Although these things weren't enough to cause him too intense a shock, he could clearly feel that the madness of the people here seemed to have surpassed some critical point.

What meets the eye is nothing but sex and violence; death occurs here almost every second.

Whether Awakened Ones or ordinary people, each person is like a powder keg that explodes at the slightest touch; a little friction and they draw blades to slash.

People seemed like beasts, each indulging without restraint in venting their desires.

The weak are forced to submit, while the strong go mad amid a sea of admiring gazes.

Even on the street corner, Lin An noticed a group clutching gasoline and inhaling deeply, faces intoxicated; beside them, an unfortunate soul who didn't know how he had set himself alight was screaming as he turned into a fireball, running wildly.

Here, order seems to have completely collapsed.

Except for a few people in brown uniforms who would slightly regulate normal trade so that business could still be conducted, no one handled anything else.

This is wrong.

Lin An asked himself, having seen all kinds of extreme humans, he knew to what extent order would collapse after the apocalypse. He had also seen things worse than this.

But it shouldn't be the current stage.

Although the apocalypse has only been going on for a little over a year, the current level of chaos is clearly comparable to that of the amoeba worm world.

Moreover, in some aspects, it is even more severe.

"Is your entire gathering place like this?"

"Are other places the same?"

He couldn't help but ask Anduyin.

If the Black Gold gathering place is like this, he really can't imagine how Anduyin and the others have managed to survive.

"No, but it's pretty close."

"We don't usually go out of the factory area. Here, besides the Awakened Ones and those who trade, it's relatively safe; people like us are in great danger."

"You... what exactly do you intend to do?"

Suppressing the unease in his heart, Anduyin gripped tightly the hand that was supporting Lin An.

Although he had grown accustomed to the chaos of the gathering place, such a place is indeed dangerous for them. If Lin An didn't need him to bring him along, he wouldn't have come in.

Listening to Anduyin's explanation, Lin An's doubts grew even stronger.

"No, but it's pretty close?"

No, it shouldn't be like this.

Even without using Faction: Long An as a comparison, the gathering places in other regions of the Huaxia war zone are not this chaotic.

In the midst of his doubts, Lin An suddenly froze. He suddenly realized a problem he had habitually overlooked.

Actually, after his rebirth, he hadn't spent much time at the bottom.

The most recent was the Heiyu Safe Zone, but there, backed by Heiyu, resources were even more abundant than the initial Faction: Long An.

Before that, it was South Korea, but he went to the largest safe zone, and that was half a year ago.

Does he really know what the Survivors have become now?

"Reality and my past life seem to be different now..."

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Lin An earnestly thought about how he could 'make money', at least earn enough food to sustain him for this month.

Although theoretically he has too many ways to solve his current problem.

For example, contact Roen, contact "Fiona", or even casually find an Awakened One to have them contact Long'an Base.

Any of these methods could easily resolve his current situation.

Driving these kids into a desperate situation with no way out, even a random Second Level Awakened One could easily settle it.

But.

Lin An cannot guarantee that the people he contacts won't want to kill him.

The world's number one, humanity's strongest Fourth Rank. Even if Roen claims he owes him a life, Lin An doesn't dare gamble on human greed. Fiona is the same; the current Fiona is no longer just Fiona...

As for having these kids contact Faction: Long An, they can't manage cross-war-zone communication. Seeking Awakened Ones from outside is tantamount to seeking death.

"The Annihilator should be looking for me, but he absolutely wouldn't dare come himself."

"I'm currently in North America; if my identity is exposed, the first to arrive would likely be that group of fugitives..."

"To earn food, even if it's just to let me barely survive while hiding, that also requires the most basic strength..."

He gave a bitter smile in his heart.

During this period when his strength had returned to zero, Lin An bitterly discovered that he actually found it hard to find a way to keep himself alive.

Relying on knowledge, the level of knowledge and skills he possesses is too high...

Are you selling a method to break through the Fourth Stage? There might not even be a Third Stage peak in all of North America now.

If not relying on strength..

Have you found some Awakened Ones who claim they can solve Memes or Supernatural Incidents? Do you know the breakthrough techniques for such events?

Impossible... He's now even more useless than an ordinary person; no one would believe his words.

As for the dungeon information, the location of the equipment..

He only knows about the Huaxia War Zone; for other war zones, he only remembers some top-tier equipment.

After repeated consideration, Lin An silently discovered that, given his current state, he actually couldn't earn even a mouthful of food in this situation.

He felt bitter for a long time, until his gaze swept over a building resembling a church.
