This place is not very far from Huacheng No. 1. It is not impossible for the mutant creatures to unite and attack the city. The problem is that only one month has passed since the last time the mutant creatures attacked the city.
"Do mutant creatures attack the city so frequently?" In Gao Han's impression, a small-scale beast attack might not occur once a month, let alone a large-scale siege.
The last time was a month ago, when the number of mutant creatures attacking the city reached hundreds of thousands, which was already a relatively large siege beast tide.
But after each incident, not only humans need to recuperate, but the mutant creatures also need to. It takes a certain amount of time for a large number of mutant creatures to gather again.
"Theoretically, it's rare," Zhongli Tingzhou said, "but it's not zero."
"Forget it, just capture those mutant creatures and ask them about it and we'll know the answer." Gao Han made a prompt decision and decided not to dwell on this issue anymore and to take action directly.
The group of mutant creatures had not gone far yet, and the two men quickly caught up with them and landed directly in front of them.
"Roar, there are humans, everyone be on guard!" The head of the mutant creature roared in animal language.
A moment later, there were more than a dozen corpses on the ground.
The two leading mutant creatures were tied up. Fugui stood in front of them. He moved a stone over and stood on it to show off his power, as if he was commanding an army.
Gao Han listened to him chattering with the two mutant creatures for a long time, guessing what was happening.
"How's the translation?" Zhongli Tingzhou leaned over with a smile in his eyes.
Gao Han said: "You two are big idiots."
Zhongli Tingzhou blinked and looked at him.
Gao Han added: "I only know that Fugui must have said this."
Zhongli Tingzhou raised his head and laughed, "I have studied for so long, and I only learned these two sentences. Where is the genius you promised me?"
Gao Han asked back indifferently: "Where is the genius you promised us once in a million years?"
Zhongli Tingzhou sighed, "I don't know, it seems that since he met you, his brain has short-circuited from time to time. Genius, that's all in the past."
Gao Han knew that he would not say anything good, "I won't take the blame for this."
Zhongli Tingzhou said seriously, "That's impossible. Who else can take the blame except you? You have to take the blame. At worst, I will marry you. You can have my pure virginity for free."
Gao Han made a vomiting gesture. He was so familiar with taking advantage of women before, and she was still a virgin. No one would believe him.
"What's with that expression on your face? You've hurt my heart so much. My pure and young heart has been deeply hurt by you. I don't care, but you have to take responsibility." Zhongli Tingzhou covered his chest with his hands, looking shameless again.
Gao Han didn't buy his words, "I haven't asked you to take responsibility yet, how dare you say these things?"
Zhongli Tingzhou immediately stood up beside him and held his hand, "Okay, I'll take responsibility."
Gao Han got goosebumps from him and quickly pulled his hand back, "Stop it."
Zhongli Tingzhou was hurt and said, "I am obviously very serious, why do you always think I am making trouble?"
Fugui had finished torturing the two mutant creatures and was looking at them speechlessly.
It's been working here and its saliva has dried up, while the host and the former host are talking about love. It's really miserable.
Gao Han accidentally glanced at its little expression and suddenly found that Fugui's mood seemed to be much richer, as if it had absorbed three black crystal fragments.
"Your son has completed his mission, just listen to it quietly."
Zhongli Tingzhou let out an "oh".
Fugui sighed and began to gesture the information he had obtained.
In short, there is a group of advanced mutant creatures who are planning a near-future siege. They are now gathering a large number of mutant creatures, and will take action once they are assembled.
It is impossible for the higher mutant creatures to suddenly decide to attack the city for no reason, unless they received some special news.
"If something happened in the city, the old man would not have left the city at the critical moment, unless City No. 1 is still unaware of it and the mutant creatures are planning a surprise attack." Zhongli Tingzhou knows his old man.
"Such a big thing can't be a sudden whim. I think there may be some hidden dangers in City No. 1, such as evil spirits. There is something I almost forgot." Gao Han just remembered.
Zhongli Tingzhou asked: "What's the matter?"
Gao Han said: "The demon cultivators we met by the lake last time may have known that you are the Demon King."
Zhongli Tingzhou looked indifferent, "If they know, then they know. Even if they tell the Yuan family, the Yuan family has no evidence."
"I'm afraid they will make a fuss about this. Have you forgotten what happened between Chen Jiaqing and Wang He?" Gao Han didn't forget.
"Trouble." Zhongli Tingzhou said unhappily, "The Chen Jiaqing you are talking about is a graduate of Penglai University?"
Gao Han said: "Yes, I heard that he is a very good person, often helping fellow students, and is quite well-loved, otherwise the incident wouldn't have become such a big deal."
Zhongli Tingzhou looked at him, "What about you? Do you also think it's wrong for me to kill him?"
"Those are all rumors. How do I know that he is a good person? I believe you killed him probably because he did something bad. Am I right?" Gao Han asked back. He had never doubted this.
Zhongli Tingzhou was satisfied, and his smile returned. "I seem to have some impression of Chen Jiaqing. Let me think about why I killed him. This guy seems to be a beast in human clothing."
"He tricked a group of junior students into going to the disaster area, used them to find materials for himself, and harmed the team. When he was discovered, he killed them to silence them. I happened to see them, so I killed them."
Seeing how nonchalant he was, I knew he had never taken the matter to heart.
Gao Han asked again: "Then is there any witness?"
Zhongli Tingzhou looked at me with a look of "Are you kidding me?" "How could I possibly remember the witnesses? It's already good enough that I can remember Chen Jiaqing. If he wasn't from Penglai, the Penglai student I killed, it seems..."
He counted on his fingers.
Gao Han: "... You should stop now. What do you mean by the Penglai students you killed? You make it sound like you killed a lot. You can say this in private, but if you say it in front of others, I'll beat you up."
Zhongli Tingzhou chuckled: "Knowing that my boyfriend cares about me, it's okay if I don't say anything."
"What about Wang He? He seems to be a mercenary."
Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly sighed, "This is troublesome."
Gao Han immediately became serious, "Is there no one who can prove it for you?"
That's really troublesome.
"No." Zhongli Tingzhou said, "I have killed countless mercenaries. I don't know who Wang He is. I can't even remember him without seeing him."
Gao Han suddenly felt a little itchy. This guy was almost scared by him. "Let's talk about this when we get back. Let's get back to the topic. Why don't you go back to the city and inform the old man to strengthen their defenses. Fugui and I will go and ask around."
Zhongli Tingzhou looked up at the sky and said, "The weather is pretty good today. The sky is really blue."
Gao Han was confused by his actions and subconsciously looked up at the sky. "We are talking about business, what does the weather have to do with us?"
"Of course it is related. It's not good to daydream." Zhongli Tingzhou said righteously.
Gao Han couldn't help himself this time and rolled his eyes. If it's not possible, then it's not possible. You are still daydreaming. How can you do this?
Zhongli Tingzhou narrowed his eyes, with a hint of danger in his pupils, "Boyfriend, your thoughts are very dangerous. You want to get rid of me? It's impossible in this life. It's even more impossible in the next life. I will cling to you for the rest of my life and make you feel suffocated even in your sleep."
Gao Han: "...I'm just saying this. You can veto it if you don't agree. Is this necessary?"
Zhongli Tingzhou snorted, "Of course it is necessary. I want you to know that even if I become a ghost, I will follow you everywhere. I am a member of your Gao family in life and a ghost of your Gao family in death."
Gao Han: “…”
…
It is not easy to gather a tide of beasts, and it is even more difficult to hide it from humans.
Gao Han did not mention again that Zhongli Tingzhou should return to the city to report the news.
From the two mutant creatures, they roughly knew that the higher mutant creatures had this plan, but it should still be in progress, which also means that they still have time.
City No. 1 is inland, and those who participate in the siege are generally mutated creatures on land and mutated creatures in the sky.
Land creatures are actually not a problem. Every time humans fight to defend a city, the most troublesome things are the mutated creatures flying in the air, because humans can only fly after they have cultivated to the second level.
The two decided to go to the territory of one of the more advanced mutant creatures first.
This advanced mutant creature is a peregrine falcon. It is very powerful and has its own territory. It is the closest to them and can be reached in just an hour.
In a dense mountainous area, a group of mutant creatures fly across the sky from time to time.
The types of these mutated creatures can be vaguely distinguished with the naked eye.
"The flying mutated locust, is it a purple locust?" Gao Han identified it.
Zhongli Tingzhou is a first-class expert with better eyesight than him. "It is a purple locust for sure."
Gao Han frowned immediately. "I remember that purple locusts have the strongest attack power among locusts. They are actually subordinates of the Peregrine Falcon. If we really launch a siege, these purple locusts will probably become one of the main forces. Let's go forward and see what other mutant creatures there are."
The two continued to move forward, stepping on the afterglow of the setting sun.
The sun was about to set and the main disaster area began to fall into darkness again. Even the slightly denser forests were already pitch black.
This is also their advantage, because there are mutant creatures patrolling in the sky from time to time. They are easy to be discovered during the day, and it is best to act at night.
This mountainous area is not small, but the woods are also very dense. The two figures flashed by, and the mutant creatures in the air had no time to notice the two figures blending into the darkness.
Soon, they entered the peregrine falcon's territory.
The trees here are not that lush. In the darkness, you can vaguely see that these trees have been cut down by humans, and there are green fallen leaves on the ground.
"These mutant creatures are really smart." Gao Han sighed.
If the branches of the tree are not cut off, people can hide on or under the tree and the mutant creatures patrolling the sky may not be able to find them.
Not getting a response, Gao Han turned to look at Zhongli Tingzhou, only to see him staring at a tree in front of him with a puzzled look on his face.
"Baby, look at this tree. Does it look like the blue-skinned tree you're looking for?"
Gao Han was startled, and after carefully examining it for a few seconds, he came to a speechless conclusion: "It really is a blue-skinned tree, but..."
Zhongli Tingzhou raised his eyebrows.
"This blue-skinned tree is not very old, probably only one or two hundred years old."
As Gao Han spoke, he looked at the nearby trees and found that they were all blue-skinned trees.
If the branches had not been cut off and it was dark, he would not have failed to recognize it at first and actually found the blue-skinned tree accidentally.
"In other disaster areas, all the blue-skinned trees that are one or two hundred years old have been cut down," said Zhongli Tingzhou.
Gao Han looked around carefully, and after a moment he said, "If I'm not mistaken, these blue-skinned trees that were cut down may be from the outer area. The blue-skinned trees inside are older."
"We must have stumbled upon this by accident." Zhongli Tingzhou resisted the urge to whistle.
"Yes, the growth habits of blue-skinned trees are similar to those of social animals. The older ones must be among them." Gao Han analyzed quickly, "But..."
"Again?" Zhongli Tingzhou curled his lips and said, "Why do I find that you only say half of what you say now, deliberately keeping people in suspense?"
Gao Han curled his lips and said, "If someone else comes, they will know the situation of the blue-skinned tree without me telling them."
In other words, the reason you feel that he is in suspense is not because of his words, but because of your ignorance.
"Boyfriend, you're going too far." Zhongli Tingzhou widened his eyes in dissatisfaction.
Gao Han calmly asked, "Is there?"
Zhongli Tingzhou nodded vigorously, as if to confirm the fact, "Of course."
Gao Han said, "That must be your illusion. I didn't say anything. If you want to think that, I can't help it."
Zhongli Tingzhou sighed, "You are so sharp-tongued. You are no longer the same person as before. You have changed."
Gao Han thought it was funny, "Really? Maybe it's because of you that I have a talkative boyfriend by my side, so I'm more or less close to him."
Zhongli Tingzhou immediately said, "I won't take the blame for this."
Gao Han suddenly felt that this conversation was a little familiar, remembering that he had said the same thing before. Just as he was about to do the same, he suddenly shut up and gave him a look that said 'I won't be fooled by you'.
Zhongli Tingzhou was extremely disappointed. Why did the reaction suddenly become so quick?
