Winter Wasteland

Amidst swirling yellow sand, a jeep roared past.

The front of the jeep was dented, but it doesn't affect its use.

The driver was incredibly skilled, kicking up clouds of yellow dust. On both sides were abandoned steel buildings and rusty metal vehicles.

The jeep stopped quickly.

A young man in camouflage stepped out of the car; he was handsome with sharp features.

He was carrying a replica of an MP7 submachine gun, and the muscles on his arms were extremely well-defined.

Although it is not exaggerated or prominent, it contains extremely terrifying explosive power, and the whole person looks like a nimble cheetah!

After returning to Winter, Chen Wang drove outside and eventually found this place to stop.

Everywhere there are abandoned, tall steel structures.

"This is practically a natural training ground for the Gold Devouring Insect!"

Chen Wang thought to himself.

The location he chose wasn't too far from the Shelter, but it wasn't too close either.

The area outside the Shelter was extremely desolate; apart from the road, much of the land was wilderness, and some areas were covered in yellow sand.

When the Zombies outbreak occurred, many places were reduced to ruins.

Chen Wang took out a small bottle and released the Gold Devouring Insect. Now, as a cultivator at the Qi Refining Sixth Layer, his Law Power was much stronger than before.

He cultivates the orthodox Beast Taming Art passed down by Green Crane True Immortal, and now his connection with the Gold Devouring Insect is extremely close.

The Gold Devouring Insect were extremely ferocious. After Chen Wang them, they circled around him, their pincers bared and claws menacing.

"Go!"

Chen Wang said softly.

The moment the Gold Devouring Insect emerged, it sensed the surrounding metallic aura.

At this moment, Chen Wang spoke, Gold Devouring Insect disappeared in a flash. These huge abandoned steel buildings were simply the best food for the Gold Devouring Insect.

"I wonder how well this thing can be upgraded."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

The Gold Devouring Insect quickly pounced on the rusty, abandoned steel beam, and then a portion of the beam visibly disappeared.

"I wonder if the Demon Insect of the Cultivation World will mutate after swallowing the metal of Winter?"

Chen Wang's heart stirred.

He drove to another location, some distance from the steel building, and after sensing it, he realized it was the furthest distance he could maintain contact with the Gold Devouring Insect.

"It's a pity that my skill in Beast Taming Art isn't high enough yet, otherwise I could brand it and let the Gold Devouring Insect develop here on their own."

Chen Wang took out a cigarette, lit it with a flame from his fingertip, and took a deep drag. When no one was around, he basically didn't need a lighter; he could just flick it with his finger, which was incredibly cool. The reason he left that place was that he didn't want others to see the steel building disappearing nearby.

"There are Tier 4 Soldier here in Winter, and I heard that the highest is Tier 5, but I don't know if it's just a rumor."

The level of intelligence and information accessible to ordinary people is too low.

Many things may still be in the confidential stage and have not yet been announced to the public.

Three Great Powers can rule the Winter.

The research direction of Genetic Ability was born on the foundation of the previous civilization, and it is hard to imagine what kind of power it contains.

Chen Wang placed the MP7 submachine gun on the jeep seat, a cigarette dangling from his lips, his eyes thoughtful. "Tier 3 potions are not available on the market at all, and the official Shelter organization doesn't have a large reserve either. It would probably be very difficult to apply for one."

"Why not explore some other channels? You might be surprised by what you find."

Several people came to Chen Wang: Gao Yanan, Moli, and the Brother Xiaobai from the Shelter B.

"Once the Gold Devouring Insect have devoured most of them, go back and contact Gao Yanan and Moli, but don't get too involved with Qin Lang."

The official side has the strongest foundation and resources, and in their eyes, Chen Wang is a sharp and swift blade.

But people's hearts are complex.

The people of the Great Winter World are warlike, savage, calculating, and most importantly, they fucking love doing research!

Furthermore, Chen Wang is not currently a member of any official organization.

Although he has been granted advanced access to weapons purchases and intelligence, he certainly won't be given too much information when it comes to strategic resources.

When the Gold Devouring Insect returned after finishing its devouring, Chen Wang examined it closely. The aura emanating from the Gold Devouring Insect had become increasingly powerful, and its metallic luster was extremely obvious.

He drove over to take a look and found that the parts of the steel building that had been gnawed on were quite clean, with no obvious signs of erosion.

"This is acceptable; it's not too attention-grabbing."

Chen Wang drove away with the Gold Devouring Insect.

After this experience, he understood that he no longer needed to drive there in person; he could simply release it and let it find some metal to devour nearby.

Returning to the Shelter of Qiongqi Mining,

Chen Wang first found Gao Yanan.

The Gao Ma led Chen Wang into the office. Chen Wang asked, "Have you been able to get any Tier 3 potions lately?"

Gao Yanan said, "Three days ago, Church Remnants attacked a convoy of a research institute at Qiongqi Mining. Two researchers went missing. Things have been very tense lately. Not to mention Tier 3, all Gene Serum have stopped circulating on the market."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow.

The Three Great Powers have always been committed to cultivating their own research institutes and cherish those researchers.

"What exactly do these people in the Church want to do?"

Chen Wang.

Gao Yanan shrugged. "These fanatical believers act without any reason."

Chen Wang frowned.

A pure terrorist? After leaving Gao Yanan, Chen Wang went to Moli's place. Moli was in the office today, dressed in a smart OL Suit, exuding a cold and aloof aura. Her white shirt was ripped, revealing glimpses of her skin, and Black Silk Stockings clung to her legs, making them appear round and alluring.

She's alluring and seductive in bars, and cool and capable in the office.

This woman is extremely charming; she's a rare beauty.

Chen Wang is currently unsure whether Moli is truly a woman with only the strength to kill a chicken.

He is also a Gene Warrior.

Judging from how she acted when she encountered the thugs stealing her car that day, Moli is an ordinary woman beneath her cold and glamorous exterior.

Chen Wang had slept with her; her skin was snow-white, her body was very soft, and there were no signs of exercise.

In the very stylish office,

Moli poured Chen Wang a cup of tea, her body curving in an astonishing way.

Even if this woman doesn't come a second time, she's still pleasing to the eye.

Chen Wang explained his purpose.

This time, Moli didn't betray Gao Yanan again, thus failing to demonstrate her uniqueness.

"The Church may be making some moves recently. With martial law in effect and stricter control over military and strategic materials, it is indeed very difficult to obtain them."

Jasmine's channels have always been wilder than Gao Yanan's. Gao Yanan is more inclined to the official side, while Jasmine is a pure charlatan.

But now that Moli has said the same thing, Chen Wang has no choice but to give up for the time being.

"Looks like I'll have to try my luck with that Brother Xiaobai in Sector B."

That drunken-looking man seemed extremely unreliable, like a conman, but he was very steady in his work and had a lot of resources at his disposal.

Moli sat down next to Chen Wang and chatted with him, "Do you still remember the mission the authorities issued last time, to capture that remnant of the Church, Kui She?"

Chen Wang said, "I remember, what's wrong?"

Moli said, "The authorities also sent people to arrest him, but they didn't catch him. Instead, that Kui She slept with the wife of a high-ranking Qiongqi Mining. It's said that he was very promiscuous, which angered that official."

Chen Wang: "..."

Moli said, "This matter was suppressed, but it still leaked out through other channels. Be careful during this time."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong?"

Moli's expression was strange. "That Kui She is bisexual, and he won't even let go of handsome young men."

Chen Wang: "..."
