Devouring the Stars: Withdrawing Talents

Chapter 27 City No. 023

Time passes and the sky gradually brightens.

After a night of trekking through mountains and rivers, Yang Wu finally arrived at the outskirts of City 023 early the next morning on his beloved little motorcycle.

City No. 023 is the former Suzhou. Many places have ancient-style buildings. It’s a pity that it has now become a paradise for monsters.

At this time, the sky was just getting light and a breeze was blowing, bringing bursts of coolness.

"Roar!"

"Ho ho..."

The roars of beasts continued to be heard in the city.

This period of time is when monsters hunt. Even if there are no human warriors hunting monsters, monsters will fight each other for food.

However, these crazy roars had no effect on Yang Wu at all.

He put on his backpack, picked up his Pojun rifle, and walked towards the city. As for the broken motorcycle, he left it on the side of the road.

The monsters don't know the value of it, and the warriors are even less interested in it.

He stopped with confidence!

Although I really wanted to ride a bike, I was ultimately defeated by reality.

This road is really bad.

The most important thing is that most highways are built in desolate areas where there are few monsters.

In suburban urban areas, monsters are very dense, flying in the sky and running on the ground.

One poke and you'll have a whole nest.

Most of the monsters on land roam in abandoned cities and live in densely built-up areas. This is the paradise for monsters.

Unless humans launch a desperate attack and drop missiles or even nuclear bombs on the city, it will be difficult to regain ownership of the city.

But what humanity needs is to regain lost territory, not a lifeless wasteland.

Yang Wu bypassed dozens of beast-soldier-level monsters along the way. Of course, there were a few that were blind and were instantly sent to see their grandmother.

Yang Wu’s main purpose of coming to the wilderness area was for money, otherwise do you think he was here for tourism?

His target must be at least a Beast General-level monster.

Beast soldier-level monsters can be completely killed by thermal weapons. Monster materials of this level are like products produced on an assembly line and are generally not worth much.

Only materials from beast general-level monsters are valuable, and materials from lord-level monsters are even more expensive.

However, monsters at the beast general level already possess intelligence no less than that of humans.

Except for a very small number of monsters that like to travel alone, most beast generals are surrounded by many beast soldiers.

Therefore, if you want to kill a Beast General-level monster, it is best to form a team and cooperate, rather than trying to take it down alone, unless the power gap between the two sides is too large.

Otherwise, it is often just a waste of time.

after an hour.

Yang Wu arrived at his first destination, a 28-story residential building.

After taking a look at this relatively well-preserved residential building, Yang Wu stepped into the dilapidated gate without hesitation and continued up the stairs.

It is not safe inside the residential building. A monster might suddenly appear from somewhere. In a narrow space like a staircase, Yang Wu's strength will also be limited.

However, this does not affect.

"Pfft!"

At the corner of the stairs, a lion-mastiff monster saw Yang Wu and immediately pounced on him.

Yang Wu just turned sideways, and the Pojun spear in his hand easily slashed across the head of the lion mastiff monster.

Pfft!
The staggering lion-mastiff monster unconsciously stomped its claws twice before falling to the ground with a thud, its body torn apart.

When a high-level beast soldier-level monster faces a high-level general-level warrior, if the number of the former does not reach a certain level, then the latter can only kill them.

After all, the gap between the two is too big.

Even though Yang Wu's strength was slightly restricted, it would be fine if the monsters hidden in the floors didn't come out. Once they came out, it could be said that he could kill one monster with one shot.

The A6-level Pojun spear can kill beast soldier-level monsters as easily as cutting tofu.

After getting rid of some beast-soldier-level monsters that blocked his way, Yang Wu finally walked out of the stairs and came to the rooftop of the 28-story residential building.

In order to prevent monsters from sneaking up the stairs to the rooftop without his knowledge and causing unnecessary trouble.

Yang Wu closed the iron door at the stairs and found an iron rod to lock it shut.

Although this iron rod and this iron door cannot stop the monster, normal monsters will not hit closed places, and there will be noise when they hit them.

Although he is not afraid, he would still be very annoyed if there were really beast soldier-level monsters being sent one by one. They are worthless and a waste of his time, unless they are beast general-level monsters.

Yang Wu found a relatively clean place, put down his backpack, took out water and high-energy food from it, and replenished himself with some energy.

Then he leaned against the wall and took a short rest.

I lay there for about 10 minutes.

Yang Wu stood up, took out a high-powered telescope from the backpack on the ground, stood on the edge of the rooftop, and began to look for his target prey.

The higher you stand, the farther you can see.

From the rooftop of a 28-story building, with the help of a high-power telescope, one can almost have a panoramic view of the entire city.

Everywhere I look, I see a scene of devastation.
Under the gray sky, ruins and debris are everywhere. This dilapidated city is filled with an old and desolate atmosphere.

Yang Wu shifted his gaze and moved the camera to a location not far away.

You can see that on every street, there are a large number of monsters everywhere, some crawling forward, some biting and hunting, or enjoying their prey...

"Rumble..."

A dull yet complex sound immediately attracted Yang Wu's attention, and he pulled the camera towards the direction where the sound came from.

About two kilometers away from him, two groups of monsters were fighting on the street.

You read that right, it’s a gunfight!
The leaders of both sides were beast general-level monsters, with a total of more than 200 monsters, and they started fighting on the streets.

However, Yang Wu also noticed that in the other direction where the two groups of beasts were fighting, in the deep and dark alley, several pairs of green eyes flashed by.

Two dogs fight, play off.

If you want to hunt monsters in this abandoned city, you must be quick, ruthless and accurate.

Otherwise, it will not only easily cause a large-scale beast riot, but it may also be taken advantage of by other monsters lying in wait.

Moreover, in such abandoned large cities, a herd of beasts is often composed of several beast general-level monsters, leading thousands of beast soldier-level monsters.

If he encountered such a beast riot, forming a large-scale beast tide, even with Yang Wu's strength, he would never dare to attack head-on.

The same thing: I’m not afraid, but it’s very troublesome.

He couldn't fight the beast tide head-on.

Once besieged, in the endless tide of beasts, not to mention a high-level general-level warrior like him, even a mid-level god of war would be exhausted to death.

But he has legs, so he can run.

With his current strength, unless he is trapped in the center of the beast tide from the beginning, or has a reason not to leave, the beast tide will really have no way to deal with him.

Yang Wu on the rooftop quickly locked onto the target.

"It's you!"
