Who am I supposed to ask?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The captain was a bald, burly man who was clearly on the verge of exploding—he snapped back irritably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There were at least five or six hundred beasts in Ping’an County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a massive population couldn’t possibly vanish so completely—even if they migrated.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One team member frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ping’an County was a place their team frequently visited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet they never expected that after just a month away, the place had changed so drastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s search for two more hours. If there are still no beasts, we’ll move on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald, burly captain said in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knew the terrain and beast distributions of Ping’an County intimately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they switched locations, they’d have to spend considerable time familiarizing themselves again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless absolutely necessary, he didn’t want to abandon this place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a second-rank lower-tier Arm-Knife Tiger leapt out from a nearby abandoned building, appearing in their line of sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s an Arm-Knife Tiger!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For their team—all members above second rank—a second-rank lower-tier Arm-Knife Tiger was nothing special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after an entire day without seeing a single beast,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>each of them stared at the tiger with eyes gleaming green like starving ghosts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally! So hard to come by!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First beast we’ve seen!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald captain’s face lit up—he waved his hand loudly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone, attack! Kill it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was especially eager for today’s first prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially a middle-aged man with a greatsword—he closed the distance in three strides and was about to charge forward—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sound like a sonic boom echoed from a distant high-rise!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, a thick, blue-purple lightning spear—like a cruise missile—shot from the horizon at blinding speed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What the hell is that?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before anyone could react,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>with a thunderous crash, the lightning spear struck the Arm-Knife Tiger directly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crackling—pop—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground trembled as arcs of electricity hissed and danced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A terrifying blue-purple lightning mushroom cloud rose from the spot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire Arm-Knife Tiger was instantly obliterated into ash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy shit!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The closest burly man flinched, his longsword dropping from his trembling hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he’d taken just one more step forward, he’d be the one reduced to ash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest of the team were equally stunned. One member trembled as he asked the team’s strongest member:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“C...Captain, what was that? A new laser weapon?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beasts had thick hides and tough skin—ordinary bullets and missiles barely pierced them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only laser weapons could inflict this kind of damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No. Laser weapons are faster. This looks like a lightning-based combat technique.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald captain glanced toward the distant high-rise, then quickly ordered with a grim expression:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go. Ping’an County must have been seized by some powerful individual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That strike was probably a warning to us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No wonder we couldn’t find any beasts—they must’ve all been killed by that lightning user!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoa, that lightning spear’s power was terrifying—I’m still trembling.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go! If we delay and anger that powerful being, we're finished!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“......”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group quickly changed direction and hurried away from Ping’an County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afraid that moving too slowly might provoke another lightning spear from that powerful being...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ding. Slain one second-rank lower-tier Arm-Knife Tiger. Gained 19 psychic points.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the rooftop of a high-rise in Ping’an County,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a tall young man slowly retracted his right hand, still crackling with blue-purple lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man was Xu Jingming, who had stayed in Ping’an County for over a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to when he first entered the county a month ago—clean and neat—he now looked disheveled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His black combat suit was splattered with dark red bloodstains; some areas were torn, and his boots were caked in dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of all his gear, only the Dark Cloud Wind Spear slung behind him remained relatively clean, still showing its original dark gold hue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His short hair had grown into medium length, and his chin bore a thick stubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet this didn’t diminish his looks—it added a touch of ruggedness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially his piercing, clear black-and-white eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They gave off an aura of deep experience, yet still retained a youthful purity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This appearance held a deadly allure for middle-aged women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With high-level proficiency in Lightning Spear, the attack range has surged to over a thousand meters. Not bad.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A smile appeared on Xu Jingming’s determined face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lightning spear he’d just fired was the result of upgrading his A-rank technique, Lei Mao, to high-level proficiency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The outcome was even better than he’d expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Speaking of which, the beasts in Ping’an County are dwindling. It’s time to move to a new location.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ping’an County had held roughly five hundred second-rank beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a month of relentless slaughter, nearly all five hundred had been converted into psychic points!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>8,000 psychic points!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the rough total Xu Jingming had accumulated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why “rough”?

Tomorrow, return to the supply base first, then push deeper into the wilderness!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming withdrew his gaze, descended from the rooftop, and returned to his room inside the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a modest room of over thirty square meters—his temporary base in Ping’an County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room contained nothing but a desk and a bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though simple, it was the only room among more than a dozen he’d checked that was still passable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furniture in all other rooms had long since rotted away, unfit even for sleeping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the corner of the room stood a massive black tactical backpack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A standard tactical backpack could hold at most one or two hundred kilograms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet this one had been stuffed by Xu Jingming with over four hundred kilograms of gear!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had swollen into a bloated, overstuffed version of itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good thing I bought the reinforced model—otherwise, this weight would’ve torn it apart.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming walked to the corner, opened the backpack, and found inside cleaned arm-blades, tiger sinews, cat claws, and rhino horns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were the most valuable parts of the ferocious beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he first entered Ping’an County,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming would meticulously harvest every usable material from every beast he killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he soon realized the backpack couldn’t possibly hold it all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So later on, he collected only the most valuable parts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, he’d still gathered nearly four hundred kilograms of beast materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for rare herbs and exotic flowers, perhaps Xu Jingming didn’t recognize them, or perhaps they only grew deep in forests and mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either way, during his time in Ping’an County, he hadn’t seen a single one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What should I eat tonight...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming scanned the contents of the backpack and finally selected a massive tiger sinew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duang~~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sinew was supremely elastic; as he lightly lifted it, both ends bounced uncontrollably up and down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He skillfully threaded the sinew onto a bamboo pole, then a flash of Lei Guang ignited the pile of firewood in the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He propped the pole over the fire, and soon the sinew—still clinging to bits of meat—turned golden-bright, exuding rich aroma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming picked up the pole, bit into the sinew, and nodded in satisfaction at its springy texture and mouthwatering flavor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he’d brought over a month’s supply of fresh water and energy bars,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>energy bars had almost no taste—fine for filling the stomach, but unbearable to eat long-term.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So later on, Xu Jingming mostly skipped the bars and opted for freshly grilled meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, he hadn’t brought any seasonings—otherwise it would’ve been even better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tomorrow, when I return to the supply base, I’ll buy a pot and a full set of seasonings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I crave meat, I’ll just pick a beast, kill it, and cook it fresh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made him think of some fishermen from his past life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They prized nothing but freshness and authenticity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Ping’an County had almost no ferocious beasts left—even the few remaining were mere scraps,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>after dinner Xu Jingming didn’t go out hunting again.
