Chapter 174 Mutant Sea Worms



Afu spat out the superhuman's head. His master had said that these things couldn't be eaten. He then turned and ran back towards the survivors behind him.

The survivors never expected that even the superhumans at the base couldn't withstand a single move from this behemoth! Seeing the two-story-high beast rushing towards them, they immediately turned tail and ran.

But how could they compare to Afu's speed? Afu could catch up with one in two steps, send them flying with a single paw, and then go after the next one.

Ashou was a little slower than Asfu. When the water arrow condensed by the level 2 water-type ability user stabbed towards it, it instinctively flinched before realizing that this was not Lin Ruo's water arrow and was not that powerful.

Enraged, it raised its paw and forcefully swatted away the water arrow. Then, with a powerful pounce, it pinned the water-type ability user to the ground. With its weight exceeding one ton, it crushed all the bones in the user's body, causing them to pierce his internal organs, and he quickly died.

Standing on the RV, Lin Ruo sensed everything with her mental power and covered her eyes. What was Ah Shou learning? Was this how Ah Liu taught him?

Even she felt that the water-type ability user's death was too pathetic.

Once Ashou was certain that the superhuman was dead, it quickly ran towards the survivors.

"Those two mutated beasts actually killed Brother Jian and the others! We have to run!"

"Quick! Get back to base!"

"Ah! Help!"

Together with Afu, they cleaned up the mess, and within minutes, Afu and Ashou had killed all those who had come to provoke them.

Lin Ruo then got out of the car. Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground and the blood splattered everywhere, as well as the blood on Afu and Ashou's bodies, and sensing the commotion of the mutated plants around her, she frowned slightly. This place was no longer safe to stay in. Soon, a large number of mutated beasts would probably arrive, and these plants would likely have to be fed to the mutated plants nearby.

She mobilized her mental energy and used her spatial domain to extract all the crystal cores from the heads of the two superhumans. She then searched their bodies and found several guns as well as a strange food.

Lin Ruo didn't examine them carefully before throwing them into her spatial storage. She then quickly got into the RV next to her and drove off to find the next rest stop. Afu and Ashou followed beside the vehicle, and whenever they encountered a mutated beast that came smelling the scent, they would pounce on it and kill it.

Lin Ruo stored all the mutated beasts that they had killed into her spatial storage. Along the way, Lin Ruo wrapped the RV's tires with fine ice to prevent them from bursting.

After walking nearly ten kilometers, Lin Ruo finally found another mutated forest. She parked her car under the trees, and the surrounding mutated tree branches sensed the bloodstains on Afu and Ashou and moved slightly toward Lin Ruo and Afu and Ashou.

Lin Ruo glanced at the mutated trees. None of the mutated plants in H City were as cunning as those in B City. The mutated plants in the mountains and forests of B City never attacked her.

She immediately expanded her spatial domain, covering an area of ​​600 meters around them, draining the essence of the mutated trees that wanted to attack them. She extracted a large amount of essence and handed it directly to the bored A-Liu in her space.

Because Lin Ruo was raising mutated plants, A Liu had been restraining herself from absorbing the essence of those mutated plants, which had been very hard work. Now that she was out, she should reward her with more essence.

She's been away for so long this time; I wonder what state those mutated plants will be in when she gets back.

Seeing that the mutated trees withered instantly, the other mutated plants around them realized that Lin Ruo and his group were very powerful. They immediately began to play dead by gently swaying their branches, hoping that Lin Ruo would not see them.

As long as they don't attack, Lin Ruo really doesn't have time to deal with them. After putting away the spatial domain, it's already noon. Lin Ruo takes out two large basins from the space and puts frozen mutated beast meat and fruit on Afu and Ashou. Afu and Ashou lie on the ground and eat happily.

The surrounding mutated plants stirred again. This was the meat of a high-level mutated beast, which they usually couldn't catch. Now it was right in front of them, and they didn't dare to go up and snatch it.

Lin Ruo sat at the dining table in the RV and began searching through the prepared food area in the still space. In the end, she found a plate of cold noodles and a plate of cold jellyfish salad, along with a glass of chilled plum juice, which solved her lunch problem simply.

Suddenly she remembered the strange food she had found on the survivors in H City. What could it be?

Out of curiosity, she took the thing out of her space. It was a dark brown round cake, only the size of a fist, very dry and hard, with some fine textures on it. She held it near her nose and sniffed it. Lin Ruo frowned slightly. The thing had a strong earthy smell. In addition, she seemed to smell a trace of meat.

She took it and examined it carefully, then leaned closer to smell it. She wasn't mistaken; there was a meaty smell, but it was hidden among the earthy odor and was extremely difficult to detect.

The survivors at the H City base are still eating meat? Haven't they discovered that eating mutated beast meat causes energy stagnation?

But the survivors all seemed alive and well, and didn't appear to have any problems.

She immediately thought of the sea worms that those people had caught on the beach, and then examined the dark brown meat pie over and over again; the color was indeed somewhat similar.

Could this pancake be made from that mutated sea worm? She took out the mutated sea worm she had killed earlier from her spatial storage and compared it with the pancake in her hands. The textures on the pancakes were indeed somewhat similar.

These people seem to have been eating this stuff for a long time, but they don't seem to have the energy congestion they experienced when they ate the mutated beasts before.

Is it possible that eating this kind of insect is harmless?

She scanned the mutated sea worm with her mental energy and found that apart from the crystal core in its brain, there was indeed no other energy in the sea worm's body. Since there was no energy, there was no fear of not being able to digest it after eating it.

A glint of light flashed in her eyes. Humans have always been intelligent. Once they know that this species is edible and harmless, there are many things they can do.

In particular, the reproductive capacity of mutated animals in this post-apocalyptic world will be enhanced. As long as the sea worms continue to be produced, the survivors in H City will not starve to death.

Even if this thing doesn't taste good, it can still survive, right?

Holding the sea worm's corpse in one hand and the strange food in the other, a slight smile played on her lips. "This is truly a miraculous escape from a desperate situation. Although there are no wood-type ability users growing crops here, someone managed to find these insects. Is this what they mean by 'when heaven closes its gates, one door closes'?"
