Zuo Lianguang, Who Had Waited Thirty Years
Currently, mainstream global technology tends to focus on gene technology, while other technologies appear cumbersome, crude, and lack refinement.
This is a point about the advantages and disadvantages of technology that Song Fengying once mentioned.
Many pieces of equipment in various technological fields can be miniaturized, while their performance needs to be improved.
However, some of the more unsophisticated technologies impressed Song Fengying, who frankly stated that promoting their development would be extremely difficult.
Ocean-going freighters are undoubtedly among them; these are heavy vessels capable of carrying over 100,000 tons, and there are no more than thirty of them worldwide.
When transporting goods for trade between major countries, these large ships would also come to Qinmeng to carry exotic animals, vehicles, batteries, fuel, and other items.
On this specially designated transport, the giant ship was carrying over 100,000 tons of seeds of various types.
Most seeds can be used as food, and even if humans cannot eat them, animals such as chickens, ducks, and fish can.
When the data becomes too large, the sensory impact diminishes.
One hundred thousand tons may sound like a simple number, but it would take one hundred thousand ordinary small trucks to load and unload it.
Even a normal truck needs to make tens of thousands of transport trips, while only some heavy-duty trucks can limit the number of unloading and transport trips to more than two thousand.
When Zhang Xuezhou and his group arrived at Huli Port, the unloading had been going on for more than ten days, attracting countless birds from Qin and Meng to gather there.
"They've even attracted ferocious beasts!"
The group had originally intended to search for birds of prey among the animals; no one had ever considered hunting ferocious beasts near the port.
The probability of encountering ferocious beasts in such a low-risk area is extremely low; it would have been virtually impossible if not for the fire meteor falling from the Qinmeng region and triggering a beast tide.
Under normal circumstances, even if a ferocious beast were to pass through this area, it would be difficult for it to be discovered.
However, with the continuous sowing of large quantities of edible seeds for nesting, Huli has become a warehouse of inexhaustible food for birds.
Birds, birds of prey, and scavengers constantly gather to feed on food seeds, edible seeds, and grass seeds, creating a fragile and unsustainable ecosystem.
This ecosystem won't last long, maybe twenty days, maybe thirty days. Once the ocean-going cargo ships finish unloading, the underlying support will be cut off.
All they could do was take advantage of this time to search for birds and strange animals.
Hunting in such a foul-smelling environment with bird droppings everywhere was indeed a terrible thing, and Zhang Xuezhou was also involved in treating and controlling the strange beasts. Even though Zhang Xuezhou cared about the strange beasts, he was still driven to question his life.
But when he heard the voice coming from the short-range walkie-talkie and saw the flash of a signal flare in the distance, he felt a little excited.
Excluding the falcon-like beast is essential for Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou, ensuring he can use it before entering the Fourth Sequence. Other bird-like beasts are merely backup options for him, and even if captured, they wouldn't bring much joy.
But ferocious beasts will definitely be useful.
Combining different ferocious beasts with the Spirit-Forging Pill will also bring different special effects.
Zhang Xuezhou was interested in the effects of each kind of ferocious beast elixir.
These ferocious beast pills can alter a person's genetic condition to varying degrees, and will also bring about some kind of impetus to change his physical genes, exerting a more powerful influence than those of guinea fowl or black-striped chickens.
Zhang Xuezhou didn't fully understand the complex relationship involved. He had speculated that it might be related to the phagocytic genes of Red Rat, but lacking sufficient experimental cases and materials, he didn't delve into the research.
But Zhang Xuezhou is still happy to participate whenever the opportunity arises.
"Charge! Let's get over there right now!"
Zhang Xuezhou quickly adjusted his grip on the steering wheel.
There were very few people who could actually fit into this hunting team. Even Zhang Manqian and Ren Anran couldn't join them and could only wait for instructions on the ship, existing as logistics personnel.
Ren Yisheng was hunting with Zhang Xuezhou in the same vehicle. The two were quite relaxed and at ease. When they spotted a suspicious bird-like creature, they approached it to intimidate it, without even using their firearms.
The ferocious beast at this moment undoubtedly stirred a surge of excitement in many people's hearts, and the noise from the walkie-talkies was incessant.
"Approach in an orderly fashion, we'll cover the rear!"
Ren Yisheng quickly added a sentence, reminding Zhang Xuezhou of his position in the team.
This forced Zhang Xuezhou, who wanted to see what the ferocious beast looked like, to reluctantly slow down the car.
"Cai Guoli said that this ferocious beast has a wingspan of twenty meters, and with one strike, Zhao Tianhua lost his grip on the saber. It poses an extremely high threat to those skilled in close combat," Ren Yisheng added.
"The species appears to be some kind of goshawk!"
Zhang Xuezhou listened to the background noise of the conversation.
Zhao Tianhua and the others found it difficult to subdue the ferocious beast, but their immediate concern was surviving until they could regroup, and messages continued to arrive.
"It seems to be Zuo Lianguang..."
"Brothers, gentlemen, I, Lao Zuo, beg you all for help! I've waited my whole life for this moment. If I can step into the Seventh Sequence, I'd gladly shorten my life by three years!"
Before Zhang Xuezhou could finish guessing who it was, Zuo Lianguang's excited shouts, almost uncontrollable, came through the walkie-talkie.
There are many species of birds, and the toucan that Zhou Xin had previously hunted was not suitable for Zuo Lianguang.
At this moment, a ferocious bird that was highly likely to be compatible with him appeared, Zuo Lianguang was so excited that he could hardly speak.
"Zuo Lianguang is lucky!"
Ren Yisheng whispered something, then looked at Zhang Xuezhou and whispered something else.
"Is this related to the good fortune of Zuo Quan and the others?" Ren Yisheng asked.
"Zuo Lianguang doesn't have any lucky charms, but... perhaps... there's some connection between them!"
Those who practice the art of cultivating fortune will benefit not only their own fortune but also their family and friends.
Even though Zuo Quan is no longer the Zuo Quan of the past, his body still exists, and his bloodline with Zuo Lianguang still exists.
Zhang Xuezhou did not rule out the possibility that Zuo Lianguang might have benefited from the influence of good fortune.
Upon first entering Qinmeng, and even while still in the port area, Zhang Xuezhou was selecting birds and exotic beasts when Zuo Lianguang also happened to encounter a potentially suitable ferocious beast.
This not only caused a flurry of rapid communication on the communicator, but also filled Zuo Lianguang with unspeakable excitement.
"I've waited thirty years, a full thirty years searching for this thing. Even now, reflecting on the past in the Twilight Mansion, I still feel a pang of resentment. None of us in this group have been lazy, and none of us have lacked talent, but we've been unable to enter the Seventh Sequence because of our incompatibility with ferocious beasts!" Zuo Lianguang shouted. "I beg you all to lend a hand! I, Zuo Lianguang, promise that even if we eventually enter the Seventh Sequence, all the rules I've followed in the Twilight Mansion will remain unchanged!"
"Old Zuo, there's no need for that. Everyone around here does the same thing!"
"That's right! If you can find a beast that suits you today, you can find one that others need tomorrow. Everyone should do their best!"
"The most important thing right now is to entangle this ferocious beast and wait for us to arrive so we can join forces to strike!"
"Committee Member Zhang, how are things on your end?"
Besides the numerous committee members contributing their time and effort to the crackdown, the key project undoubtedly relied on the logistical support provided by Zhang Xuezhou and others.
This involves the recovery of the ferocious beast's injuries, as well as whether it can be transported back to Western Capital City in a controlled manner.
"I saw the signal flare and am driving over. As long as you don't completely kill the beast, everything will be fine!"
This prompted Zhang Xuezhou to respond quickly, ensuring logistical supplies were in place.
The combined power of the Supreme Purity True Technique, the Soul-Stirring Beast Taming Technique, and the strongest Sequence Holder group from the Scarlet Alliance State, finally became apparent.
If they could also get help from Zuo Teng, their personnel configuration would undoubtedly be at its maximum.
This wave of hunting, which successfully adapted to the Seventh Sequence, may not involve just Zuo Lianguang; it could very well involve multiple people.
