I have a city in another world

Chapter 7044 The Mutant Who Infiltrated the Outer City
The curfew began late at night.

Due to the recent spate of accidents, the curfew has been significantly tightened. If someone violates the rules, it's no longer as simple as just doing manual labor.

They will all be locked in the dungeon and dealt with after the crisis ends. Those with serious suspicions can be killed on the spot.

After the new curfew order was issued, those guys who used to rely on their status and connections to outwardly comply but inwardly defy it have now become more obedient.

They were terrified that they might accidentally get shot without even realizing it.

However, this curfew order can only deter ordinary people; it has no effect whatsoever on those with ill intentions.

In fact, during the day, they had already begun their operation quietly in the outer city according to plan.

In a residential house in the northern part of the city, the door was tightly closed and no lights were on.

Once night falls, ordinary people really have nothing to do except sleep.

However, a faint smell of blood lingered in the house, so faint that it could not be detected unless one entered the yard.

Several people were sitting inside the room, the lights were off, but their eyes glowed green in the darkness.

A normal person's eyes would never see this; it's more like the eyes of a cruel, ferocious beast in the wilderness.

They are indeed not ordinary people, but mutants who have taken mutated herbs and undergone bloodline modification.

Mutants can be martial artists or extraordinary cultivators; through mutation, they can make themselves stronger.

Simply put, it breaks through the limitations of the human body and integrates the advantages and strengths of other organisms.

Once you become a mutant, you can easily gain great power, but you will also have to suffer various backlashes and pains as a result.

Even so, many people are still willing to try mutations and take on extremely high risks of death.

Upon reflection, it's understandable. Living in a wasteland, how could one survive and improve one's life without paying a price?

Because of their unstable temperament, mutants would occasionally fall into a berserk, bestial state, and were therefore ostracized by various settlements.

They even issued a joint statement prohibiting mutants from entering the settlement area, and stating that anyone found doing so would be severely punished.

Such discriminatory behavior has sparked serious discontent among mutants, leading to a continuous outbreak of conflict.

The mutants roam the wilderness, attacking settlements and shelters, causing the animosity between the two sides to deepen.

The mutants in the wasteland are now the third greatest threat after the evil cultivators and mutated monsters.

There are several types of mutants. One type is physical mutation, which is easy to distinguish.

Musculoskeletal abnormalities occur, and bodily organs become abnormal, especially when entering a state of alienation, making them look like demons and monsters.

Even after undergoing plastic surgery, these types of mutants are still easily recognizable as abnormal.

They couldn't get through the checkpoints at the settlement and weren't even qualified to enter the city.

There is another type of mutant whose form is even more concealed. If they deliberately hide themselves and use some props and supplies, they can easily blend into the city.

The various shelters and gathering places are on high alert against these mutants, because their purpose in coming to the city is definitely not to live a peaceful life, but to find ways to cause trouble and gain advantages.

Many shocking cases involve mutants, and many important controlled items have also been smuggled into the wilderness by mutants.

Footsteps came from the inner room, and a man came out, tearing at a bone.

That family has already suffered misfortune.

The mutant humans are cruel and do not feel any psychological burden when they take over others' homes.

Time passed slowly, and finally the appointed time arrived.

The lead mutant, glancing at the specially designed communication watch on his wrist, immediately issued the order: "Proceed according to plan!"

A group of mutants received orders and, like wild beasts released from their cages, quickly moved in different directions.

They all have their own objectives for tonight's mission, and time is of the essence; they must complete it as soon as possible.

After completing the mission, you must either leave the city quickly or head to a hidden location; wasting time will result in losing your life.

Once the operation begins, it will inevitably alert the extraordinary cultivators in the inner city. Faced with powerful individuals who wield extraordinary abilities, mutants will have no chance against them.

Although they were aware of this, it did not affect their actions.

Once the mission is successful, the evil cultivators who issued the mission will surely give generous rewards.

There is even a chance to break free from constraints and ascend to the extraordinary, becoming awe-inspiring and fearsome beings.

In order to become stronger and have the opportunity to step into the extraordinary realm, mutants will stop at nothing.

One of the figures moved through the building, occasionally dropping an item.

This is a timed incendiary bomb made with special materials that can easily melt even metal.

Using this type of weapon, burning down an ordinary house would be effortless.

There was also a bone club stuck in the man's waist, covered with signs of being gnawed on.

It was the man who had just mutated after consuming the man-eating herb in the house.

"It will taste even better when the fire is burning and the burnt smell has dissipated!"
Hehehe, the more pain you endure, the more delicious the roasted meat will taste! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water!

While anticipating the delicious food, they continued wandering through houses and homes until they reached the end of this street.

He had scouted the location during the day and knew that there was a weapons and equipment store at the end of the street, which had just opened for business not long ago.

The owner's skills are superb, and he is said to have reached the level of a master, attracting many adventurers.

For communities, such shops need support to help adventurers improve their strength.

However, as competitors, such shops must be eliminated; they absolutely cannot be allowed to grow and expand.

Therefore, during the investigation, this shop was identified as a target for elimination; the goal was not only to destroy the shop but also to kill its owner.

If conditions permit, you can kidnap them and take them out of the city; the reward for that would be even greater.

Those demonic cultivators also need to cultivate subordinates and build their own territorial armies.

It also requires a large number of talented people, craftsmen from all walks of life, to create and produce weapons and equipment.

These mutants are actually mercenaries of the evil cultivators, who choose to risk their lives for them in order to gain benefits.

"Such exquisite skills indicate a very intelligent mind; it must be incredibly delicious!"

The mutated man stuck out his tongue, which resembled a colorful venomous snake, and his eyes were filled with greed.

He actually decided to kill the shop owner and then devour his flesh and blood to absorb his wisdom and skills.

As the thought flashed through his mind, he had already arrived at the backyard of the shop, which was the equipment shop he had explored during the day.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw the shop owner come out.

Under the moonlight, the two gazed at each other, as if the scene had frozen in time.

"Ant, go to hell!"

The mutant grinned maliciously and pounced on Tang Zhen like lightning.
