Chapter 20: Crazy Money‑Making Speed

After arriving at City No. 023, Zhou Yang truly realized how terrifying the Warrior's money‑making speed was!

On the first day they arrived, the Wind‑Chasing Squad successfully hunted four low‑level Beast General monsters!

It should be noted that they arrived in the afternoon, meaning they completed the hunt of four prey in just half a day!

This efficiency was many times higher than it had been in County No. 02011!

In the days that followed, they launched a frantic hunting spree.

City No. 023 ranks among the largest municipal wilderness zones, and the monster density within it is astonishingly high.

Zhou Yang and his group need not expend much effort to search; they can easily locate many solitary Beast General monsters.

The time saved is naturally poured into the frantic hunting of Beast General monsters.

On the second day they went full‑throttle, killing a full nine Beast General monsters.

On the fifth day they harvested eight more.

"Up to now, we've killed a total of 113 Beast General monsters, including five mid‑level and 108 low‑level, with an estimated total value of about 1.5 billion!"

After only a brief observation, a smile appeared on his face.

She brushed the strands that had fallen to her ears and boldly threw a flirtatious glance at Zhou Yang.

The only woman in the squad, Zhu Xia, wore a scarlet tight combat suit that highlighted her proud figure.

Zhou Yang and the others all exclaimed in surprise!

Lei Hong smiled and said:

On the dilapidated street, the six‑person Wind‑Chasing Squad advanced cautiously in a wedge formation.

The irreverent Uncle Liu joined in the banter, and the group burst into laughter.

Zhou Yang, under everyone's eager gaze, felt a little uneasy.

"This is only my price estimate based on past experience; the exact figure will have to be confirmed when we return to Base City."

"Yangzi, you still don't have a girlfriend, right? Look at your sister—let me tell you, I, your sister, have never had a boyfriend."

Rare, therefore precious!

He has, of course, taken note of this Ghost‑face Spider.

He stared at Zhou Yang with a look of spotting a billionaire, clicking his tongue continuously:

Ahead at a crossroads stood an abandoned convenience supermarket; through the shattered glass doors, Lei Hong could faintly see a silver‑gray giant web covering the entire entrance.

Arachnid monsters are already scarce, and this Ghost‑face Spider is an especially rare species.

Because of the continuous high‑intensity hunts, the squad members were physically and mentally exhausted.

Yet hearing his teammates' lively laughter gave him, who had rarely experienced camaraderie in his past life, a different kind of warmth.

Lei Hong's face broke into a smug smile as he continued:

"In the past half‑month, we've focused on low‑level Beast General monsters, averaging seven or eight kills per day."

Day six.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed, and the Wind‑Chasing Squad's backpacks were bulging high.

After becoming a Warrior, Zhou Yang gained access to the Warrior internal forum and crammed a lot of information about the wilderness zones.

"Captain, look ahead—could that be a Ghost‑face Spider!"

During the trek, they occasionally lifted their telescopes to survey the surroundings.

The Wind‑Chasing Squad rested for a day; on October 29 they set out again.

"Over to the right‑front, at that corner supermarket!"

"Damn, Yangzi, you hit the jackpot! 1.5 billion; based on contribution you could pocket four or five hundred million yourself—straight into billionaire status!"

"Ghost‑face Spider! Where is it? Let me see!"

"One line, two lines, three lines… five lines, five‑line pattern! It's a mid‑level Beast General Ghost‑face Spider! Guys, we've found it!"

Zhou Yang and the others wore delighted expressions, quickly raising their telescopes to scan ahead.

Moreover, the Ghost‑face Spider's greatest value lies not in its body but in the web it weaves!

"You all owe thanks to Zhou Yang; thanks to his joining, hunting Beast General monsters became this easy. If the team had only one War General‑grade like me before, efficiency wouldn't be this high!"

Generally, important materials from a mid‑level Beast General monster fetch about 50 million to 100 million.

"Today is October 28; we've been out exactly half a month!"

Lei Hong let out a low, delighted hum and then carefully examined the Ghost‑face Spider's purple patterns.

Most of the monsters they've hunted lately are low‑level Beast Generals, mostly ordinary types, so Lei Hong's 1.5 billion estimate is reasonable.

Hearing that, Lei Hong hurriedly grabbed his telescope and looked ahead.

Chen Chong quickly reminded them.

Since the Beast General monsters around the Jinpin Garden Residential Area have been nearly wiped out, they plan to explore farther regions today.

On that giant web, a massive spider over three meters in diameter, with compound eyes and concentric purple rings on its abdomen, clutched the head of a tiger‑mastiff and was sucking it greedily.

Important materials from a mid‑level Beast General monster usually sell for 10 million to 100 million.

Of course, some lower‑level monsters possess rare materials and can fetch higher prices than typical monsters of the same rank.

Chen Chong is only a few years older than Zhou Yang, so they speak more casually.

"Mid‑level Beast General Ghost‑face Spider!"

Thus, that day Lei Hong assigned no missions, giving everyone a full day of rest.

Among them were one mid‑level and eight low‑level Beast Generals!

On the third day they set out again, netting another eight Beast Generals!

On the fourth day efficiency slipped; they only killed six, but two of them were mid‑level Beast Generals.

Following his direction, Lei Hong swiftly rotated the telescope and locked onto the target.

For example, the high‑level Beast‑General‑grade Silver Moon Ferocious Wolf that Luo Feng scavenged in the original work sold for a sky‑high price of 800 million, far exceeding the usual high‑level Beast‑General‑grade monsters.

The members of the Chase‑Wind Squad gathered together, excitedly tallying the spoils they had collected during this period.

According to the normal market prices of the HR Alliance Branch here, the valuable materials from a basic Beast‑General‑grade monster can fetch roughly 5 million to 15 million.

"Hahaha, I think it's great; this Diamond King‑Old‑Five being absorbed internally is good!"

Suddenly, Chen Chong's excited shout rang out.

And the venom sacs and eight spider spines on this mid‑level Beast‑General‑grade Ghost‑face Spider Light can each sell for a sky‑high price of at least 150 million.

The spiderweb that the Ghost‑face Spider continuously repairs and reinforces day after day boasts astonishing elasticity and toughness, making it premium material for crafting high‑grade Warrior combat suits!

Depending on the web's grade and size, the selling price varies as well.

Soon, the concrete figures emerged!

Lei Hong laughed and said something, drawing everyone's attention to Zhou Yang.

"That sister is waiting for you~"

The valuable materials from a high‑level Beast‑General‑grade monster can fetch between 50 million and 600‑700 million.

"It really is a Ghost‑face Spider!"

"1.5 billion!"

A moment later, he also laughed, quickly joining the group's chatter.

"Haha, I'm still young; when I decide to look for a girlfriend, I'll definitely consider you first, Sister Xia!"

And the spiderweb woven by the mid‑level Beast‑General‑grade Ghost‑face Spider can sell for at least 7‑8 million per square meter!

Looking at the massive spiderweb that draped the entire supermarket hall, Zhou Yang's face broke into uncontrollable joy!

"Purchasing the large cavity of the second tier of 'Apocalypse' finally got settled!"
