However, this mercenary camp here is different from what Zhou Qiang had imagined before, because this one is not organized by the people themselves, but by the Wood God.

Even the name of this place is mysterious, called the Assembly of Gods.

A big city in the East, with a name that is so...Western?

The most important thing is that none of the people in this city felt anything was wrong.

The Council of Gods is an organization completely loyal to the God of Wood, and the major families often issue missions in it, such as where to go on an adventure, where to search for supplies, or where to bring back some information, etc.

Most of these tasks will give some special rewards, such as a chance to join a major family, or a chance to participate in some activities, or even a chance to join the city guard.

Most of the people in the Council of Gods are actually lone rangers, who are higher-level masters who came from other places and can only think of this way to join this city.

Hearing the child in front of him say this, Zhou Qiang felt that this did not seem like a charity event, but rather a kind of alternative screening.

Those with high levels, special abilities and training value will be retained.

Those who are of low level and have no training value will probably disappear after participating in a few missions.

The people in the City of Gods are not worried at all that all the lone rangers here will die. After all, as the exploration distance of the city gets farther and farther, more people will hear the name of the City of Gods and join here in the future.

Zhou Qiang also asked about the shrine. The child didn't know much, but the driver actually knew.

"That is a sculpture of the Wood God. It is given as a reward to the top three in each event. It can suppress the aggressiveness of zombies and can even drive these beasts away from a certain distance."

"Of course we don't need this thing. There have indeed been waves of zombies before, but as long as Mu Shen stands at the city gate, the zombies will be scared to death!"

The driver laughed as he spoke, and he had a special admiration for the God of Wood.

Most of the industries in the inner city belong to these second-rate or above families, as well as scientific research institutes.

Behind the bright and beautiful buildings are vast tracts of farmland.

But people are not allowed to visit there.

The driver could only take Zhou Qiang for a circle on the nearby road. From a distance, he could see green seedlings growing in the fields and some people weeding and spraying pesticides.

Everyone is trying hard to survive.

There are many manors similar to the Xie family's in the inner city. Most of them are mansions and gardens, and they look particularly luxurious.

Of course, before the end of the world, this city was indeed full of splendor.

Each major family has its own industry, and some families even compete with each other.

Apart from these manors, what remains are some entertainment venues.

Zhou Qiang even saw a ten-story sky restaurant, which was said to specialize in products from the farmland, and guaranteed to taste the same as before the end of the world.

There are also some people who raise livestock, and there are only a handful of livestock that have not been mutated, so the prices are already sky-high.

Most of the meat in the city of God actually comes from the Yangtze River outside. Although there is a risk of contracting the virus, one cannot resist the temptation.

Besides, the research institute has already done research on it, and they have selected the parts with lower toxic content, so it’s not a big problem to eat less.

Sometimes I have to say that Chinese people really have a strange persistence when it comes to eating.

It took two hours to complete a circle. The entire inner city is twice as large as the outer city.

Ordinary people cannot enter the top families further in the middle without an invitation, let alone the Wood God Temple in the middle.

These ordinary people have only seen the Palace of the Wood God on the virtual screen.

However, those humans who have achieved self-awakening have a certain chance of being summoned by the Wood God and getting a chance to become a member of the guard.

The people in this city are strictly divided into different classes.

Finally, Zhou Qiang gave the child a small bag of compressed biscuits as a reward. That thing was better than anything else and could help the child to keep away hunger for a long time.

As for the driver's fare, Zhou Qiang gave him four small breads and a pack of instant noodles as reward.

There are almost no hotels or the like in the inner layer, but there are various clubs with ambiguous names.

Things that are not allowed in a society ruled by law are all picked up by these people in the doomsday world.

When Zhou Qiang was standing at a crossroads thinking about where he should go next, he heard the roar of a motorcycle in the distance.

And it's getting closer.

Zhou Qiang turned his head silently and saw a team of more than ten motorcycles lined up in a long queue, rushing towards him.

"Hey, are you the helper that bastard Xie Yujun is looking for?"

The leading motorcycle did a beautiful tailspin and stopped directly in front of Zhou Qiang. A boy who looked very young asked through his helmet.

The remaining motorcycles seemed to be sick, circling around Zhou Qiang while making loud roars.

The people passing by were so scared that they moved away, but Zhou Queqiang did not move.

"Our young master is asking you a question, are you speechless?!"

Several motorcyclists nearby were talking as they prepared to attack, their actions were very rude.

Zhou Qiang narrowed his eyes, and the moment the other person approached him, he raised his foot and kicked him hard.

The motorcycle, which was running at 60 km/h, suddenly lost its balance. The person on it stood up and the motorcycle hit the motorcycle in front directly.

The team that had just been lined up neatly was instantly disrupted.

Normally, these fourth and fifth level masters wouldn't be so slow to react, nor would their bodies be so uncoordinated.

But the main reason was that Zhou Qiang was too fast.

It was so fast that they didn't react at all.

The man who asked him the question at the beginning still stood there quietly. He had no intention of caring about the fact that his men had been embarrassed by someone else.

"I heard you're very powerful, come fight me, if you win I'll give you a level 6 evolution fluid!"

The man watched Zhou Qiang's actions, his eyes becoming more and more excited.

I don't know where this person got the news of Zhou Qiang's needs, but he actually made such a bet.

The man took off the motorcycle helmet, revealing a face that looked only eighteen or nineteen years old.

Zhou Qiang shook his head.

He was very interested in the event the day after tomorrow. Even if there was no research on evolutionary fluid, he would choose to participate.

The boy looked at him in surprise, as if he didn't quite understand why he was so loyal to someone he had only met a few times.

"Then why don't you fight me first? We'll talk after you win!"

This young man was obviously a martial arts fanatic. Zhou Qiang even suspected that all the people who entered the inner city had been troubled by him.

Moreover, the boy was extremely fast.

He threw the motorcycle worth millions on the side of the road without any regret, and then the young man, glowing all over, rushed over.

Zhou Qiang narrowed his eyes. This turned out to be a rare evolver with light attributes.

This ability alone encompasses a lot, both speed and attack are top-notch.

After all, is there anything faster than light?

However, the human body has a limited ability to withstand stress, and if the speed is too fast, the body may collapse.

Therefore, the boy’s speed was not that fast.

After all, it's just a level five.

"Light energy shock wave!"

This child was obviously very immature. Before launching the attack, he even read out the name of his skill in a particularly arrogant manner.

A bright beam of light came straight towards Zhou Qiang from the direction of the young man, and its momentum was surprisingly overwhelming.

Zhou Qiang is certainly not a fool, and he can't just stand there and take it.

He shook his body easily and appeared not far from the young man.

As his level increased, he realized how useful the lightning attack skill he had learned before was.

These people who are born with various special skills rarely exercise their bodies.

In other words, these people have purely positioned themselves as mages, and their melee combat abilities are extremely poor.

As long as Zhou Qiang can get close to these people, they can be said to have lost.

Zhou Qiang has not come into contact with many beings with light attributes so far, so he is quite curious and plans to play with it more.

"You can flash too?"

The young man opened his eyes, looking excited as if he had found a soulmate.

The next moment, the boy disappeared from where he was.

Zhou Qiang felt a chill on his back and quickly changed his position again.

I saw a huge hole on the ground where he had just stood.

This was caused by the burns from the light in the boy's hand.

Zhou Qiang was also eager to try it out, as he hadn't exercised for a long time.

However, just in case, he couldn't expose too many of his skills, so after suppressing his own energy fluctuations to level five, Zhou Qiang decided to rely on his physical body and lightning strikes to deal with the boy.

The two of them kept hitting each other and chasing each other, successfully dazzling the group of people around them.

The more the boy fought, the more shocked he became. He had never seen such a person whose attributes could not be identified at all. Even until now, he could feel that Zhou Qiang had not used his true strength.

This realization depressed him for a time.

His elder brother was a favored child of the city of gods, and he was also working hard to catch up with his brother. He originally thought he was very close, but now it seems that he is too far away.

Most of the opponents he had encountered before were a little lenient in the fight because of his identity, and he almost thought he was invincible.

fine.

He really met his match this time!

"Pay attention! I'm going to use my ultimate move next!"

As the young man shouted again, the dazzling light turned into flying knives one after another, forming a storm wall that rushed towards Zhou Qiang.

Both parties have just figured out their teleportation distances: Zhou Qiang's is ten meters, and the young man's is six meters.

So this time the boy's attack range was directly expanded to twenty meters.

Zhou Qiang laughed.

It can be seen that the boy must have just mastered this skill recently.

The power is relatively large within a range of ten meters, but after the attack spreads, the power is only comparable to that of a level three skill.

Zhou Qiang could even give himself a thick armor to withstand the damage.

But in order not to shock the world, Zhou Qiang pretended to step back a little, casually took out an alloy knife from the bag behind him, and started attacking.

There was a constant crackling sound. Zhou Qiang deliberately let his clothes be cut into two pieces, and finally the wind blade attack slowly disappeared.

"You're pretty good! Tomorrow there's a mission to subdue a sixth-order giant python. Do you want to join us? The reward for the mission is determined by the amount of effort you put in!"

Zhou Qiang's ears perked up.

One of the conditions for him to reach level seven is to gain two pieces of experience from the Eight-Eyed Demonic Python.

The problem is that he has not come into contact with the second python yet.

It's impossible to find out any information by asking around. Ordinary people simply can't know these things.

He had been planning to go to the gathering of the gods later to take a look, but he didn't expect someone to deliver the message directly to him.

"What did that giant python look like?"

Zhou Qiang turned around and asked.

The boy's eyes lit up and he quickly came over.

"Here are some videos I took earlier. They're a little blurry because the distance is too far. You can take a look."

The boy tapped the watch on his hand, and a small screen appeared in the air, and then a video began to play on it.

I saw a slender body swimming slowly between the two peaks, and its belly was still bulging.

Some subtle but rapid breathing sounds can be heard, which should be the voice of the person taking the photo.

Although the video was blurry, Zhou Qiang still recognized it.

This is exactly an eight-eyed demon python.

It was slightly larger than the one he had seen before.

However, how could a level five kid have the guts to kill a level six zombie animal?

"Don't look at me like that. My brother is going there tomorrow too. He's really good! They all say he'll be able to break through to level seven within seven years!"

The boy spoke of his brother with great pride, as if that person were himself.

It can be seen that the two brothers have a very good relationship.

Zhou Qiang pretended to be embarrassed and nodded.

"I have never seen a monster like this before. I will go there to broaden my horizons this time!"

"Sure! Let's exchange contact information! Meet at the East City Gate tomorrow morning!"

After the small watches on the two people's hands collided with each other, an extra contact appeared on Zhou Qiang's watch.

Seeing the boy's name, Zhou Qiang raised his eyebrows.

Thunder?

Someone from a top family.

No wonder he is so arrogant.

Looking at the motorcycle team roaring away again, Zhou Qiang smiled.

It's rare to see such a simple person in such a big family.

No one has come since the thunder arrived.
