Through the mutated elephant's words, Xu Xing truly understood that their group of mutated beasts had indeed escaped from the zoo, but not all of them, only a portion.
The other part is governed by a mutated rhinoceros, located on the other side of the city, and they usually keep to themselves.
This time it was the military that harassed them first, which is why they took such extreme actions.
Xu Xing didn't rush back this time. Instead, he continued to lie on the white tiger's back and rest properly, as his body had been quite exhausted this time.
Although the white tiger is not as big or imposing as a dog, its soft fur is far superior to a dog's wiry fur; it's even more comfortable than a mattress at home.
Carefully considering the gains, it's clear that of the significant expenditure this time, 20% was due to contributing to the military, while the remaining 80% was spent quietly harvesting crystal cores.
Fortunately, the results were worth his efforts.
In a large cabinet in the space, there were crystal cores of the same size, all of which were level two. There was no way to count them by hand.
Even with only a rough estimate, Xu Xing was overjoyed, using his telekinetic powers to continuously traverse the periphery of the battlefield and reap the rewards.
It doesn't amount to a million crystal cores, but it does have hundreds of thousands.
It should be noted that such a number of crystal cores is still a considerable number, even in the later stages of the apocalypse. With so many level-two crystal cores, it is not impossible for some talented individuals to be forced to reach a higher level.
Next, there was a small box with two layers inside. The bottom layer contained level three crystal cores, and there were quite a few of them, over a hundred.
The most precious layer, the top layer, contains about ten level-four crystal cores, resembling a beautiful night sky.
As the jolt stopped, Xu Xing realized that he had been swept up by a horde of mutated beasts and brought to a huge football field.
There were also many mutated beasts basking in the sun and dozing off during this period. When they smelled Xu Xing's scent, they all jumped up.
The mutated creature cried out a few times before calming down.
The environment here is very nice. I don't know if it was intentional, but the surrounding plastic running tracks and other things have been removed, leaving only some bare ground.
Xu Xing was not only curious about their food source, but it was the white tiger beneath him that finally explained that there were special kinds of beasts that hunted inside and outside the city, but they did not specify what those beasts were.
Fortunately, in comparison, most of those huge creatures are herbivores; otherwise, with this elephant's appetite, even a whole company wouldn't be enough for it to eat.
Xu Xing stayed there for a while, trying to persuade the mutated elephant to lead these beasts under his command to sweep through the area outside the city.
Sprayed in the face with water by this barely adult beast: "No, no, I only promised you that I would be alone, and I'm injured and tired right now. You can come find me later."
Faced with the mutated elephant's shameless behavior, Xu Xing dared not make a sound. He could only silently purse his lips, give it the middle finger, and get up to leave.
When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Right now, the difference in strength between the two sides is too great, so they can only swallow their pride and bear it. Only when they turn back and advance again will their attitudes change.
Fortunately, the mutated elephant was somewhat trustworthy and didn't kill him immediately after using him. Xu Xing knew that the mutated elephant was honest and kind, which was why he made the agreement with it.
As they approached the villa area, several men rushed over to greet them, with Ye Kai being the fastest among them.
"Boss, it's good to see you back." He rushed to the front and simply greeted him; there was no need for further words between brothers.
Then Su Xixi rushed over, looked her up and down, and reached out to touch her from side to side: "Are you injured? Why are you so late?"
I heard the sounds of cannons going off in the city, and I was so worried. Then the sounds stopped, and when I saw that you hadn't come back yet, I thought something had happened.
"I wanted to take Ah Huang out to find you, but your brothers stopped me." As she spoke, Su Xixi sobbed and threw herself into Xu Xing's arms.
Before leaving, Xu Xing specifically instructed Ye Kai and the others to keep a close eye on Su Xixi and make sure she didn't do anything foolish.
He was surrounded as he returned to his lair, only to find that there were many more people there than expected.
After inquiring, it was discovered that the army had fled too quickly, causing some of the superhumans who intended to follow to also flee in panic. Some of them ended up here and were successfully recruited.
Xu Xing was happy to see this happen. Although they were all level two ability users, those who survived were considered elites.
Since Xu Xing returned, fewer and fewer people in the entire villa area have started to go out 'hunting'; instead, they've begun to focus on developing their character.
The crystal cores that Xu Xing brought back were enough for everyone to use for a very long time.
He also devised a policy because he wanted to see the overall power increase, but didn't want them to reap the benefits without sowing, so he directly launched a loan business.
It can be purchased with a loan; it is a secondary crystal core, all of which uses contribution points, and the price is approximately fifty.
In an instant, an increasingly positive mood slowly infected the others.
With a strong supply of resources, people continue to surpass themselves and advance to higher levels.
Veteran members like Ye Kai and Su Xixi have also overcome that hurdle and advanced to level four.
During this period, new policies were constantly introduced, the rules became more and more comprehensive, and the population did not stop growing.
They are no longer confined to the interior of the villa area, but have developed large areas around it for people to live in.
Within a few days, many people began to volunteer to go out 'hunting,' naturally because of the loans they were carrying.
As your level increases, your hunting range expands, and you get to know more and more people.
Throughout the entire city, at every gathering point, there was a saying: "Jinghai has three great powers: zombies, mutated beasts, and Xu Xing." This speaks volumes about his influence.
These days, Xu Xing hasn't been idle either. Besides breaking through to level five, his main task has been to take Su Xixi around the city and gather up any stray mutated beasts.
Xu Xing has grand ambitions.
Even though the military had used firearms to clear the area once, the number of zombies was still ridiculously high.
Sending the army back again is unrealistic; they're licking their wounds outside the city, terrified of the defeat.
Relying solely on the surviving members was somewhat insufficient, so he planned to use the mutated elephant as a lead to integrate the mutated beast forces in another location, given the large number of mutated beasts he had gathered.
With these mutated beasts leading the charge and the ability users providing ranged attacks, the city can be cleared in a planned and efficient manner. Given enough time, the entire Jinghai City can theoretically be liberated.
