Luoyou City had become a wasteland of ruins, devoid of people. It had long since become the beasts' new territory. Weeds overran the once-bustling city, and small animals could occasionally be seen darting about. Not enough time had passed for tall trees to grow, but for vigorous grasses, this place was paradise. The wildly growing weeds were high enough to swallow an adult's knees.

A somewhat bewildered man walked along the streets of Luoyou City. His clothes were ragged, and a few grass stems clung to his disheveled hair. He had a square face, brows as thick and black as ink, and dark skin, but his eyes shone as brightly as stars.

Bleached bones lay everywhere in the streets, along with all manner of scars left by the fighting.

His gaze swept past them. Suddenly, he strode toward a pile of bones, bent down, and picked up a card pouch beside it. He recognized the model. It was a new card pouch Aida Company had designed the previous year. The deceased must have been fairly wealthy in life. He opened the pouch, and delight suddenly flashed through his bewildered eyes.

Energy Cards! Five Four-Star Energy Cards!

He could not help letting out a long breath. These were precisely what he needed most right now! He had always made a habit of carrying a large number of Energy Cards with him, but during his struggle in the Jungle, he had exhausted them all despite trying every possible way to use their energy more efficiently.

He picked up several more card pouches. Each time, he extracted the Energy Cards and Money Cards, then casually discarded the other cards
