"Ouch, it's so numb!"
Black Pearl was shocked and couldn't understand how the kitten had discovered her.
It quickly dispersed the white mist. "Cat, King, how did you find me?"
Silver landed nimbly in front of Black Pearl and explained, "I didn't find your hiding place, so I attacked you indiscriminately with an electric net."
Black Pearl suddenly realized what was happening. She immediately placed her chin on the ground, making a gesture of submission: "I have lost. From now on, you are my king!"
It had no interest in the position of Beast King; its challenge was merely a way of testing the strength of the future king.
After all, Rongcheng has a large number and variety of mutated animals, some of which are natural enemies and not entirely harmonious with each other. To become the king of beasts, one needs the strength to suppress the rest, and simply cannot break them up when they fight!
Yinzi nodded: "Anyone else want to challenge me?"
Several more mutated animals then went up to challenge, but they all unfortunately suffered a crushing defeat at Silver's hands, and the other animals had no further objections.
More than five thousand mutated animals shouted in unison: "King!"
The sound almost pierced the sky. The wild mutant animals that scattered and fled in the distance thought that a herd of beasts was coming to hunt them down. They were so frightened that they swung their four legs so fast that they could only be seen as afterimages.
Yinzi nodded solemnly: "I promise that in the future I will definitely lead you to a peaceful life where you have enough to eat and drink. Do you believe me?"
"letter!"
The mutated wild animals in the distance ran even faster, their four legs swinging so hard they almost sparked.
Yinzi nodded in satisfaction: "Next, I have a few things to announce. First, since my sister provides us with protection, we must unconditionally obey her. I will personally drive away anyone who fails to do so. Second, every animal must help my sister with whatever work they can, otherwise they will not be given food. Third, the strong must not bully the weak; if anyone is found doing so, they will be severely punished. Fourth, no one may harm humans without cause, but if someone attacks first, you may take their life at will. Fifth..."
After finishing his long and detailed explanation, he asked, "Does anyone have any questions about this?"
The mutated animals shook their heads in unison: "No!"
"Alright, everyone line up, I'll send you into my space right away."
Upon hearing this, all the mutated animals looked at Banxia with sparkling eyes; they were about to see the magical Peach Blossom Spring!
Banxia released Tiantian's spatial dimension: "You on the left, I on the right."
The woman and the tree swiftly stored all the mutated animals into their spatial storage. The Banyan King, who had been waiting for a long time, eagerly sidled up to her: "Banxia, the plants have lined up too."
Banxia nodded helplessly: "Don't worry, I won't leave you behind."
After storing all the mutated plants in his space, the Banyan King mysteriously pulled Banxia and Nanxing to sit on his branches: "I have a lot of good things there, go and see if there's anything you can use."
Banxia leaned against the branches of the banyan tree king, chatting casually: "Why aren't there any zombies in the city?"
There isn't a single zombie in Rongcheng, it's simply unscientific!
The Banyan King laughed and explained, "I hate ugly things, so I led my men to clean up the zombies."
It started complaining, "It's ugly, and it stinks too! I can't stand it!"
Banxia: "..."
She suddenly remembered the zombies covered in insects when the weather had just started to get warm, and she felt nauseous.
Banyan King led Banxia and the other to his lodging, which was the tallest building in the city center.
It excitedly pushed open the door: "Come and see, is there anything you like!"
Banxia looked over curiously at the ground covered with glittering jade stones and crystal cores: "What are you doing collecting so many jade stones?"
The Banyan King casually picked up a white jade Buddha statue: "In the era I was born, only wealthy families could afford jade. I saw that no one wanted it, so I secretly kept it. You should put it in your space quickly, and I'll take you next door to see my collection."
Banxia waved her hand and took everything away, then followed the Banyan Tree King to the next room.
The Banyan King opened a tightly wrapped box, took out a yellowed ancient painting, and said nostalgically, "The little girl who painted this once tied a red ribbon to my branch."
He put the painting back in the box and said generously, "Do you like any of them? Take whatever you like!"
Neither Banxia nor Nanxing had the habit of taking what others liked: "We have no expertise in calligraphy and paintings, you can keep it yourself."
Banyan King gestured for Banxia to put it away: "Then what do you like? I'll try to get it back."
Banxia spoke without any hesitation: "Crystal core."
"I'll help you fight the zombies!"
After packing their things, the Banyan Tree King led the two on a stroll through the streets, carefully explaining as they walked: "There used to be a well here that was even older than me. Hundreds of years ago, there was a great drought..."
It has lived in this city for over a thousand years, witnessing firsthand the continuous growth and development of the people on this land, from ignorance and backwardness to civilization and advancement. Before the apocalypse, its greatest pleasure was guessing which deceased person's descendant the worshippers came to offer incense, and what fascinating stories had unfolded in their lives.
Banxia sensed the Banyan King's reluctance and silently took out a camera: "This is a camera, I'll teach you how to use it."
The banyan tree king gratefully thanked him, saying, "Thank you."
Hearing the woman's soft voice, it thought, "I feel like I have a home again."
As we left the highway exit, the Banyan King held up a camera and said, "Let's take a group photo!"
Banxia and Nanxing exchanged a glance, then said indulgently, "Okay!"
"Snap—"
The image freezes.
The Banyan King handed the camera to Banxia: "Thank you, let's go."
Banxia put the camera into her spatial storage, patted the trembling branches beneath her, and comforted her, "Don't cry. I'll print out the photos for you when I have time. Look at them when you miss home."
The Banyan King said in surprise, "I didn't cry."
It's not a person, it has no nose and no eyes, how could it possibly shed tears?
Banxia was silent for half a second, then shouted sharply, "Run!"
The banyan tree, confused, instinctively started running: "Why are you running?"
Banxia did not answer, because her eyes were stung by the irregular red and blue lights in the sky, causing tears to stream down her face, leaving her no room for anything else.
"Boom!"
The banyan tree king stumbled and almost fell to the ground. It instinctively stopped, but its massive body was shaken four or five centimeters off the ground by the violent tremor.
The Banyan King cried out in alarm to Banxia, "Why did the earthquake come so early?"
Banxia did not answer. Countless vines burst forth from her palm, tightly binding herself, Nanxing, and the trunk of the Banyan King tree together to prevent them from being accidentally thrown away.
"boom!!!"
A massive mushroom cloud suddenly rose from the city not far away, and the two people and the tree instinctively looked over. Countless high-rise buildings collapsed instantly, and the yellowish-brown dust, like a monster with fangs and saw teeth, mocked them wantonly in the air.
A city with thousands of years of history was razed to the ground in just a few seconds. Is this the power of a magnitude 9 earthquake?
No, that's not the worst thing...
