Everyone's on a time-travel adventure! I'm raising city beasts in a post-apocalyptic world

Half an hour later, Zhao Gao came to Lin Feng again.

"Your Majesty, I would like to request something."

Lin Feng was studying the golden book and didn't even look up: "Speak!"

Zhao Gao explained his entire plan to open the altar and camp to the public, including the fee standards for the sacrifices and the fact that Old Chen would be in charge. He added at the end, "This way, we won't need to capture the mutated beasts ourselves, and Miss Xiao Rui and the guards will also have the opportunity to be promoted. It's a win-win situation."

After listening, Lin Feng closed the golden book and looked up at Zhao Gao.

"Don't rush them. Your suggestion is good. The altar can be open to everyone. You and Old Chen can be in charge of it normally. You can set the specific rules, just don't cause any trouble. Lock up any extra mutated beasts you collect. Don't rush to activate your profession yet. When you have time, bring your men over. I have some questions to ask them."

Zhao Gao bowed and said, "This servant obeys."

Lin Feng couldn't help but shudder again: "Could you please use a different form of address?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Ugh... Alright, alright, go down now. Don't bother me unless it's absolutely necessary."

Lin Feng felt goosebumps rising on his skin again. After Zhao Gao left, Lin Feng communicated with the Tree of Life, "Satisfied now?"

After the sacrifice was completed today, the Tree of Life communicated with him, requesting that 9% of the energy from each sacrifice be used for the growth of himself and the Altar of Life. This would greatly enhance both his energy reserves for opening natural barriers and his own growth.

Lin Feng agreed without hesitation. In fact, sacrificing one animal would unlock the profession, but Lin Feng would never tell anyone.

Keep a low profile to make a fortune.

After Zhao Gao left, he told Wang Lie and the others about the opening of the altar. Soon, everyone in the caravan knew about it and asked about the specific procedures. When they learned that they could become professionals by collecting 20 offerings, they were all excited and couldn't wait to catch them as soon as the caravan stopped.

The ordinary survivors were even more excited, their eyes shining and their bodies trembling, too excited to speak. The chance to change their fate had finally arrived.

Lin Feng ignored the excited crowd and instead walked through the inner city to the area where the ore was piled up. The queen ant had been suppressed here for many days. Her huge abdomen rose and fell slightly, and her antennae twitched occasionally, making her appear quiet and obedient.

Lin Feng walked up to it, a drop of blood condensed at his fingertip, and with a flick of his finger, the blood landed precisely on the queen ant's forehead, disappearing deep into its carapace.

The queen ant's body trembled violently, emitting a low hiss. A faint pattern appeared on the surface of her dark golden carapace, then slowly disappeared. After a moment, the queen ant quieted down, lowered her head, and gently touched Lin Feng's fingers with her antennae.

[Contract successful, Gold-Eating Ant Queen, Level 3]

[Evolve using 1 evolution points...]

Moments later, the queen ant's body swelled to more than ten meters long, and her abdomen became even more bloated.

[Your beast evolution is successful. You have received feedback on your beast's essence. Your level progress has increased by 1%...]

Beast Taming 5: Gold-Eating Ant Queen

Level: Iron 4 (Next evolution requires 100 Iron Evolution Points)

Ability 1: Immense Strength [Can exert force 400 times their own body weight]

Ability 2: Heart of the Colony [All offspring born to the queen ant are under her absolute control; 1000 gold-devouring ants can be born daily.]

Ability 3: Vein Resonance [Can sense metal veins within a 100-kilometer radius; the higher the quality of the vein, the clearer the sensing.]

Ability 4: Ore Refining [Gold-eating ants secrete special biological enzymes that can dissolve ores and refine them into high-purity metals. The queen ant can accelerate her reproduction by consuming high-quality metals.]

After reading it, Lin Feng's lips curled up slightly. The mineral vein within a radius of 100 kilometers was sensing a thousand gold-devouring ants every day. Now the miners were settled.

"You shall build your nest here and reproduce as soon as possible. Send them out to mine; Little Xuan's food supply depends on you. Keep your offspring in check..."

The queen ant's antennae swayed gently, responding to Lin Feng's words.

Then it stopped in a corner piled with ore and began to dig. Lin Feng watched for a while, then turned around and returned to the villa area. After the convoy passed through the canyon, the view suddenly opened up, and they stopped to rest in a place with a wide view.

The next morning, the first batch of gold-eating ants emerged. Each of them was over two meters long, with a black carapace that gleamed with a metallic sheen. They scattered and crawled around in the ore pile. Fortunately, Lin Feng had specifically instructed the queen ant to keep them under control the night before and not to let them hurt people.

However, the sight of the Level 3 Gold-Eating Ants crawling along the base of the city wall into the outer city's residential area still caused quite a bit of panic. An early-rising woman screamed in fright when she saw this scene. After the guards reminded them that it was Lin Feng's tamed beasts and that they found that these tamed beasts would indeed not harm people, everyone was relieved.

"Is this Lord Lin Feng's new tamed beast? Such a huge ant looks terrifying."

"Huh... they've left the city, what are they doing?" someone asked in a low voice.

The people in the camp watched as ants crawled off Xiao Xuan's back and scurried away in all directions, moving much faster than a car could in the wilderness. They quickly disappeared, and no one knew where they went.

The answer was soon revealed. About an hour later, the first batch of gold-eating ants appeared in sight. Each of these giant ants was dragging something several times larger than itself. Some were dragging an abandoned vehicle, and some were dragging a steel beam. They looked like they had been moved from some ruins that had fallen into this world.

A dozen or so birds lined up in neat rows, carrying their "prey" through the camp, climbing onto the back of the little black cat, and piling it up near the nest.

"Holy crap..." Someone's jaw dropped at the sight: "These ants...are they gathering resources outside?"

"Are you crazy? These ants are more capable than humans..."

More gold-eating ants returned with their 'prey,' and the initial surprise in the camp gradually turned into pure envy: "If only we could also form a contract with an ant..."

Moreover, as these ants returned, they attracted some wandering caravans. Seeing such a large human settlement, they all chose to join in, and the caravan grew larger and larger.

However, everyone quickly forgot about the ants and stopped bragging to the new team.

The news of the altar's opening swept through the entire convoy like a gust of wind, and everyone went crazy. Not only the Awakened, but even ordinary people saw hope and their eyes lit up. This led to Guo Yi's business being exceptionally good, with a surge in the purchase of human-powered generators and solid batteries, and orders for Level 3 armored vehicles skyrocketing.

A large number of ordinary people spontaneously took action, searching everywhere for ways to earn monster crystals. In the past, when they saw mutated beasts in the wilderness, their first reaction was to go around them and avoid them if possible. It was not worth risking their lives for a beast.

As news of the altar's opening spread, the idea of ​​"20 mutated beasts for one profession" exploded like a stone thrown into a pond. Not to mention Awakened Ones, even ordinary people with a bit of courage started taking out their savings to buy weapons and forming teams to hunt down weaker mutated beasts.
