Release - Boss
Zhao Chengfeng left.
Li Song's heart relaxed a little.
Zhao Chengfeng's intention was very clear. This matter was written off.
Li Song did not care about what he would do to resolve this.
This matter had been weighing on his mind for a long time. Although he knew that even if it was exposed, he would at most be forced to escape from Shanghai, but if he did not have a choice, who would want to wander the world aimlessly?
Li Song was not surprised to see Zhao Chengfeng.
He knew that he would be found out sooner or later. If the country's surveillance was going to be activated, no one could remain hidden.
Moreover, Li Song's methods were not that brilliant. It was not difficult to find him.
However, Zhao Chengfeng's words touched Li Song.
He was not a cold-blooded person. The shocking data and the helplessness in Zhao Chengfeng's eyes made him experience the despair of ordinary people in this catastrophe.
Not everyone was like him, able to be unbridled in the calamity. Not everyone was like him, who had Tamed Beasts with the ability to slaughter anything in their paths.
He recalled how the people around him had looked at him as though he was their mortal enemy when he had 'snatched' their monsters the other day. He gradually understood that things were not as he had imagined. Not everyone was brave and fierce, or just fighting for money. They were also smart people—perhaps they just wanted to live.
Was that wrong? Not at all.
He looked at the unchanging main mission in the system.
Main Mission: [Survive]
[Survive]: The beginner's protection period will end in three months. At that time, the protection of the various districts will be retracted. Monsters that have gone crazy will invade the city. Surviving is your only choice.
Reward: 1000 EXP
This mission might not be dangerous for him, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it was like the sword of Damocles hanging above their head, as if it would collapse at any moment, and their head would roll.
It was just that Li Song believed that although he was using cheats, he could not help others cheat as well. All he could do was to make himself stronger. That was all.
Over the past few days, Li Song understood one thing. If he stayed in Shanghai and relied on the "suppressed monsters" to farm experience, three months was not enough.
Furthermore, there were so many cute and battle-hungry newbies fighting for monsters in this beginner village. No matter how fast he moved, there were still many people.
"Maybe it's time to get out of here."
Li Song had a plan.
Initially, he had wanted to wait for Zerg Five to evolve before venturing out of the Shanghai area. However, it seemed that the time needed to wait for Zerg Five to evolve was not something that could be achieved in a short period of time.
Most importantly…
Zhao Chengfeng's words were very clear. The troops had been working hard outside Shanghai and had fought more than once. They had also built up a stockpile of experience.
Previously, Li Song had some doubts about where the experience points given to new members who joined the Night Suppression Division had come from, but now he understood.
As for why he did not know, it was obvious that the confidentiality level of this matter was higher. It was not even transmitted through the Internet. Li Song naturally did not have any channels to obtain this information.
"It's time to prepare." Li Song thought to himself.
He needed a car at the very least. It was hard to tell what was going on outside Shanghai. It was much more convenient to have a car. After all, he could put it in the warehouse anytime.
If he only relied on his legs, the range of his movement would probably be too small. Furthermore, he had two Level 10 Tamed Beasts with him, while anything could happen in the wild. Driving was faster than running on human legs.
Li Song did not think that the three of them could do whatever they wanted in the wild.
After looking at cars for an entire afternoon, he still did not make a decision. There were a lot of cars around. Li Song believed that with his current experience points, there would be many people willing to make a deal with him even if it was a supercar.
But Li Song was not satisfied with any of them.
Instead, he saw a pickup truck that ran on diesel fuel. It barely met his requirements of endurance and usability in different terrains, but it was not fast, being even slower than him…
In fact, Li Song actually hoped to buy a heavy truck. If it was big enough, it could avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble—in the case of monsters with low intelligence, they would not attack creatures larger than themselves rashly.
Only, fuel was a problem.
Gasoline was now a rare commodity. Electricity could still be supplied, but electric cars were generally slower than gasoline cars.
Bull Two, on the other hand, had been shouting at the side. This guy seemed to have a special fondness for driving. Ever since it saw the motorcycle in the magazine last time, it had been holding the magazine in front of Li Song…
From time to time, it would even lie on the sofa and shake its head as it mooed. However, its eyes would sneakily peek at Li Song, as if it wanted to see his reaction.
Its intentions were obvious.
Now that Li Song was finally going to buy a car, how could it not be excited? It could only squat at the side.
In the end, Li Song could not win against it. He did not decide on a car to go out. Instead, they talked about getting a motorcycle first. After contacting the seller, they agreed to meet the next day.
...
At night, the monster release occurred on time.
But this time, it seemed a little different.
Ding!
"The release has begun."
"Attention, this time, we have added an Elite Rock Tossing Lizard (Level 23). Killing it will give you a great reward."
"The address will be at…"
The next moment.
In Li Song's system interface, a coordinate formed by vertical lines appeared, and a red dot flashed crazily.
"Fight the boss?"
Li Song's eyes flickered. He had never thought that there would be such a thing in the 'protection period'.
Level 23 was considered the start of the Elite-rank. Of course, it was not much, but it was already considered an outstanding expert amongst the Rock Tossing Lizards.
Li Song made a small estimation. If he could kill something 11 levels higher, the experience points would be at least 2000-3000. Ten times the experience points would be equivalent to 20,000-30,000 experience points. It was enough for both Zerg Five and Bull Two to level up. This was considered a huge fortune during the protection period.
He could not miss it!
What Li Song did not know was that at the same time, in all the cities around the world, everyone received the same news. It was just that the monsters they faced were different.
He looked at the location indicated by the red coordinates. His luck was not bad. It seemed that he was not far away.
Looking at the others, at this moment, many figures in Shanghai froze.
Soon, they turned around and charged towards the Rock Tossing Lizards that were emitting white light. As for some of the others, they were generally stronger than the others. Their bodies were well-built, and their Tamed Beast's aura was also stronger.
A voice sounded in their earpieces.
"Everyone from the Night Suppression Division, pay attention. Head to Three Suns Street immediately."
"Everyone from the Night Suppression Division, pay attention. Head to Three Suns Street immediately."
"…"
The sound rang out three times in a row. Everyone moved their bodies and started their cars, quickly heading towards Three Suns Street.
Meanwhile, in Three Suns Street.
A huge Rock Tossing Lizard looked around. It was three times the size of a normal one. Its body was about twenty meters long and three stories tall. It had a sinister gaze and its eyes were vertical, as if it was an ancient beast.
If an ordinary Rock Tossing Lizard was compared to a car, then this Elite Rock Tossing Lizard was a heavy truck.
Bang!
The long tail whistled, and the thick tail directly smashed the shops on the street. The concrete was smashed like tofu.
"Run!"
"Run for your lives!"
"The boss was released here!"
At this moment, the people who had just reacted revealed looks of fear and turned to flee!
There was nothing they could do if they did not flee. Just this huge figure alone was enough to make them lose all courage to fight.
"Roar!"
The behemoth let out a roar and the glass windows on the side of the street instantly shattered and exploded!
It stared at the fleeing humans with a bloodthirsty and ferocious aura. Droplets of saliva fell from its long tongue as if it had seen delicious food.
A huge rock was formed almost instantaneously and flew out like a cannonball. It carried a huge force and crashed into a person in the blink of an eye. Before he could let out a miserable cry, he had already turned into a pile of mush.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Rock Tossing Lizard stamped its four feet on the ground and dashed away, as if it wanted to cause an earthquake. The ground emitted a dull and loud sound.
Although the Rock Tossing Lizard's body was huge, its speed was not slow at all. Otherwise, it would not have become the mount of some high ranking races. In the blink of an eye, it had already arrived in front of the target. With a sweep of its tongue, it even swallowed the gravel on the ground.
It dashed forward once again. In the blink of an eye, it had caught up with a few more people.
It was impossible for human legs to outrun it.
At this time, Li Song passed through several streets and heard roars from afar.
