After the Major General Shi reported his gains from the past ten days to Lieutenant General Yao, he very considerately gave his hard-working companions a day off.

However, Yu Sen and the others didn't appreciate such thoughtfulness at all.

It was still early, so the hardworking six of them decided to work overtime to hunt exotic beasts before the day off.

They were afraid that their boss and Teacher Gou would be too focused on healing and neglect the dangers outside, or that they would have too much physical contact and it would be inconvenient for them to escape in the face of danger. After discussing for a while, they decided to leave two people behind to defend.

Qin Bei, who lost the rock-paper-scissors game, looked at the armored car parked a kilometer away. He looked at Jang Ren, who was silent beside him, and said, "I heard that when the young masters used to kidnap women, they would have their lackeys on guard. Do you think it's like what we're doing now?"

Jang Ren glanced over and asked Qin Bei, which was rare for him, "Was it Miss Tang who got kidnapped, or was it our boss?"

Qin Bei, "…"

This was really hard to say!

The two people who were fighting over each other were stumbling in the car towards the bed. Shi Buyu bent down to kiss Gou Liang and didn't let go until he was on the bed.

"Xiao Kener, wait for me."

He touched Gou Liang's face to comfort him and got up to take a shower.

"Don't wait."

Gou Liang grabbed him and tore his clothes without any pattern. In his haste, a ripping sound was heard, and he actually tore the protective clothes Shi Buyu was wearing, which was made from the silk spat out by the strange silkworm beasts, in half.

He paused and looked at Shi Buyu, who was smiling at him with a red face. Seeing that Shi Buyu really didn't leave without him, he pretended as if nothing had happened and reached out to touch Shi Buyu's chest. Shi Buyu's chest felt firm and full of tenacity. The burst of strength made his waist and legs go weak. He couldn't help but rub his face against Shi Buyu's chest. He sighed as if he was worshipping Shi Buyu and kissed him tentatively.

The texture was even better than the texture. Gou Liang could not help but greedily kiss it.

Shi Buyu cooperated and took off his torn clothes. Then, he lifted Gou Liang, who was almost as tall as himself, from the bed. He lifted Gou Liang's butt and shook it. Then, he lowered his head and looked at Gou Liang, who was fascinated by his chest muscles. He chuckled and said, "Don't rush. Take your time."

Gou Liang wrapped his arms and legs around Zhang Wuji, while biting Zhang Wuji's flesh, he mumbled a response.

Shi Buyu didn't hear him clearly. When he brought him into the bathroom and put him on the floor to ask again, Gou Liang raised his head and said, "I said, I'm in a hurry."

Shi Buyu was caught off guard. His hand, which was about to turn on the shower, trembled, and the warm water turned into cold water, making them quiver.

He hurriedly raised his hand to block the cold water from Gou Liang's head and adjusted the temperature of the water with his other hand. He only turned his head when the temperature of the water was right.

Gou Liang's long hair, which had not been trimmed for a long time, was wet. A few strands of hair stuck to his fair face. The water flowing into his face made him blink continuously, but he still stared straight at Shi Buyu, unwilling to look away.

"Xiao Kener …"

Shi Buyu's heart was beating fast. He leaned over and kissed his eyes. The hands on his head pushed his hair back, revealing his delicate face. He kissed him again and again, and without hesitation, he took off Gou Liang's wet clothes. Shi Buyu's hot palms burned Gou Liang's skin, which had been stimulated by the cold water just now. He kissed his dimples and picked him up with one hand. As he took off his pants, he said, "Me too."

Gou Liang laughed. His misty peach blossom eyes were even more captivating in the rising mist.

Shi Buyu kissed his neck and reached for the antiseptic solution with one hand. He accidentally messed up the neatly arranged toiletries.

"Let me help you."

Gou Liang squeezed a palm full of antiseptic shower gel, put it on Shi Buyu's hair, and washed his hair with both hands. His hair had always been cut short when he was shaving, but the excessive amount of lotion would soon cause foam to form all over his hair.

He grabbed Gou Liang's skin and kissed it hard. Shi Buyu swallowed a mouthful of foam, but he still refused to let go.

Gou Liang laughed even harder and insisted on bathing him. His hands, which were covered in foam, greedily touched Shi Buyu's skin, and finally stopped at the most important part.

Shi Buyu was pressed against the narrow glass door of the shower. The two adults made the already small space extremely crowded …

When Boss Shi's vacation was changed from once every ten days to once every five days, Gou Liang, Yu Sen, and the other four successfully broke through to Level 3.

Shi Buyu, who had been stuck at Level 3 for a long time, finally broke through with the help of the improved Hundred Beasts Pill, and became a Level 4 Ability User.

The brave and skillful companions spontaneously proposed to cancel the "Stock Abuse Holiday". During the twenty-four hours when Gou Liang absolutely occupied Shi Buyu's treatment time, they continued to kill the exotic beasts.

Shi Buyu's work attitude was commendable. In half a year, he had already investigated all the exotic beasts in the Death Zone of Huaxia, and counted nearly nine hundred species. Although it was inevitable that there would be some that slipped through the net, he estimated that there would be no more than a thousand exotic beasts.

In contrast to human Ability Users, most of the exotic beasts had mutated abilities of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

According to the energy content of their Beast Pills, Gou Liang had divided the exotic beasts into different grades.

Ordinary exotic beasts without any Ability Users were Level 1, and they were the most numerous. Above Level 1, there were five different Ability Users, each more powerful than the last, and fewer in number than the last.

In other words, Shi Buyu once had a fierce battle with a Level 6 exotic beast. After swallowing dozens of Level 2 Hundred Beasts Pills to replenish his energy, he had to use his "Thunderbolt" sure-kill skill five times in a row to kill the beast.

A few days ago, Shi Buyu made a trip to the seaside.

When the apocalypse broke out, he decided to continue carrying out his secret mission, and went to the Southeast Sea where he had killed the first Seawolf to investigate. However, reality proved that his thinking was too simple.

The situation at sea was far more savage than on land!

The sea had completely become the world of exotic beasts, occupied by three types of exotic beasts: marine, land, and air. When Shi Buyu set up the exotic beast detector, he saw a densely packed group of Level 5 and above exotic beasts. Even he felt his scalp go numb. Even if he had the Thunderbolt sure-kill skill, he could only tactfully turn back when faced with an ocean full of exotic beasts.

After understanding the situation at sea, Gou Liang ordered him not to go into the sea before he broke through to Level 6.

Shi Buyu also understood the principle of more haste, less speed. Moreover, those high level exotic beasts hadn't made any moves to the north yet, and wouldn't directly threaten the safety of Kyushu Base. As such, he didn't force himself.

As such, he shifted his focus to the combat training of Yu Sen and the others. At the same time, he hunted Level 3 and Level 4 exotic beasts for their Beast Pills, in preparation for the next stage of the team's Ability Users' breakthrough.

After two months of targeted training, Shi Buyu was able to let Yu Sen and the others fight Level 2 exotic beasts without worry.

Shi Buyu was fully in charge of replenishing the energy of the seven members of the team, while the Level 2 Beast Pills they hunted were all transferred to Kyushu Base.

At present, Nine Provinces had already used this batch of Beast Pills to cultivate a hundred-man Level 2 team.

However, Yu Sen and the others had limited energy. Even if they supplied Nine Provinces with Beast Pills day and night, faced with the shortage of Beast Pills for the three million people in Nine Provinces, the Level 2 Beast Pills they provided couldn't cope with the situation where there were too many monks and too little porridge.

There was always a difference in the number of Beast Pills they consumed, and most people could accept such a difference. After the apocalypse, they had been living a monotonous life with their lives hanging by a thread. They were already very satisfied with just having enough to eat and wear.

However, there were always some people who valued their ambitions more than their lives.

"Why can he get a Level 2 Beast Pill distribution, but I can't?"

Jia Nanzhu questioned with bloodshot eyes.

It was naturally unwise to criticize his own team leader like this. If it were any other time, Jia Nanzhu would definitely choose to swallow his anger. However, when he saw that Bao Zi had also received his quota, he really couldn't hold it in any longer.

In Nine Provinces' Ability Users' team, Jia Nanzhu only recognized Bao Zi.

Before the apocalypse, the other party was nothing more than a pitiful worm in the Tang family. When had he not been polite to him?

But now, because of the team leader's preferential treatment, Bao Zi's ability was far ahead of his own, and he increasingly looked down on him.

The proud and arrogant Jia Nanzhu couldn't stand the reversal of status, especially when he wanted to compete, but the other party completely disdained him.

"How am I inferior to him? Whether it's training or actual combat, when have I ever lost to him?! Why can he get a Level 2 Beast Pill distribution before me, but I don't have anything … This is unfair! "

Seeing that the team leader didn't want to answer, Jia Nanzhu raised his voice and asked.

The team leader thought to himself, 'Bao Zi is someone who even the highest leader cares about. If I don't give it to him, should I give it to someone like you who has an unclear relationship with Ju Bei, who's at the top of Nine Provinces' blacklist? Besides, the Level 2 Beast Pill was painstakingly hunted by Bao Zi's cousin and cousin-in-law. If I don't give it to him, should I give it to you? '

However, he wouldn't say this out loud.

Hearing the questioning, he only frowned and said, "This batch of people who got a Level 2 Beast Pill distribution in advance all awakened offensive abilities. For example, Bao Zi's fire ability is what we need the most right now. We're in a critical period right now, so every decision we make is based on the overall development of the base, not on personal interests. "

After saying these words of criticism and warning, the team leader sighed and said earnestly, "Little Jia, I've seen your excellence with my own eyes. The base won't treat anyone unfairly. Let's set our sights further. When the strength of Nine Provinces' ability users increases, we won't have to worry about not having enough Beast Pills. Do your job well and don't throw tantrums anymore. How shameful would it be if others saw you like this? "

Jia Nanzhu respectfully agreed, but when he returned to his assigned dormitory, he was still fuming.

"Zhu Ge, what's wrong?"

Ju Bei, who was sewing clothes, was startled when he saw this.

Jia Nanzhu looked at Ju Bei's patched-up clothes and felt that they were dazzling. However, when he met Ju Bei's caring gaze, he felt a little better and said that he was fine.

No matter how hard Jia Nanzhu racked his brains, he would never have thought that the reason why his superiors had given him the cold shoulder, intentionally or otherwise, was all because of Ju Bei's self-righteous words. However, he didn't say anything about his predicament. Even though Ju Bei and Ji Guangyuan were the only ones who stayed by his side after arriving at Kyushu Base, he would never open his heart to them and reveal his failure in front of them.

However, even if he didn't say anything, Ju Bei could guess.

Because of the abundant supply of Beast Pills, nearly half of the three million survivors in Nine Provinces had successfully become Level 1 ability users. Jia Nanzhu's Earth Ability wasn't enough here.

In Nine Provinces, Jia Nanzhu was just an ordinary support-type ability user. However, in "The End of the Era", not only did he have dozens of subordinates under his command, he was also about to become a Level 2 ability user.

Although they were safe in Nine Provinces, they had lost many opportunities because of this.

Seeing Jia Nanzhu depressed, Ju Bei was also very anxious. However, what made him even more uneasy was that many things had deviated from the original novel. For example, there was an ability user that never appeared in the novel, and there was also that Bao Zi who always annoyed Jia Nanzhu.

He carefully thought about it over and over again. He was sure that there was no such person in the original novel. However, it just so happened that it was that fatty's cousin …

What did that person do? Did he really turn the world upside down?

Ju Bei asked this question again.

Meanwhile, Gou Liang, who was being nagged by him, was currently "enjoying" the mermaid's solo concert.

Yu Sen and the others' training had increased from fighting Level 2 ability users on their own to fighting Level 3 beasts together.

They were already Level 3 ability users, so they had the ability to protect themselves against Level 3 beasts. However, these beasts were huge, had thick skin, and had plenty of HP. It would be risking their lives to hunt them down by themselves. Naturally, Shi Buyu wouldn't let them take such an unnecessary risk. However, Yu Sen and the others had very strong combat awareness and tacit cooperation. If they worked together, they would be able to put up a fight against Level 3 beasts.

When the car passed by this place today, it detected the presence of a Level 3 ability user in the lake. This beast became the target of their special training today.

For safety reasons, Shi Buyu supervised the battle from the side, Gou Liang collected data, and the person who stayed behind to protect Gou Liang was Qin Bei.

Therefore, the ones who took action were Yu Sen and his brother, Zhou Gao, and Jang Ren.

With their strength, they didn't have the slightest bit of stage fright. However, no one expected this mermaid beast to open its mouth and attack them as soon as it emerged from the lake.

This was the first time they had encountered a mermaid beast. Gou Liang gave it this name not because it had any human-like parts on its body, but because it could "walk upright".

This was a Level 3 amphibious beast. It had a fishtail that was forked like a swallow's tail, which could support its body and allow it to walk on land.

It moved very slowly on land, but its attacks didn't rely on speed or strength. Instead, they relied on a special sound wave ability.

It let out a high-pitched roar from its mouth, and the special sound waves that could be seen with the naked eye spread out like ripples. Everywhere it passed, no other creature was left standing!

At the same time it attacked, Yu Sen and the others who were on high alert didn't have a chance to counterattack. The mermaid beast's roar knocked them to the ground, and they couldn't move at all.

If it weren't for Shi Buyu's fast speed, they would have been dragged into the lake by the mermaid beast and become its food reserves.

At this time, Shi Buyu was carrying the four people on his shoulders, and under the command of Gou Liang, who could see the path of the attack, he was constantly dodging the mermaid beast's attacks.

Just as he was about to leave the range of the mermaid beast's sound wave attack, the mermaid beast's roar became louder and louder. Following that, more and more mermaids emerged from the water. The power of the mermaid beast's roar could be imagined. Gou Liang's sharp eyes saw that within a radius of ten miles, all the beasts, including those at Level 3, were fleeing in panic.

Even Shi Buyu, who was a level-four superpower user, staggered and slowed down abruptly.

Yu Sen and the others groaned in pain. Blood was already flowing out of their ears. Shi Buyu's expression changed. Just as he was about to launch a thunderous attack on the mermaid beast that was getting louder and louder, he heard Gou Liang's excited voice coming from his Bluetooth earpiece.

"Shi Xiaoyu, don't kill them! Their sound waves can repel the beasts with special abilities! "

Gou Liang's voice was full of excitement.

Shi Buyu looked back at the group of mermaids and beasts that were slowly approaching him from the shore. He narrowed his eyes, and a bolt of lightning fell from the sky, striking the front of the group of mermaids and beasts.

Ever since his ability had reached Level 4, he didn't need to use his hands to control lightning. After the attack, he didn't want to continue fighting. He carried the four people on his shoulders and was about to leave.

Originally, he only wanted to buy time to bring Yu Sen and the others away, but he didn't expect that the group of mermaid beast would scream at the same frequency. They were scared out of their wits by the lightning. Suddenly, they all lay down on the ground and desperately swung their tails. Like dehydrated fish, they quickly fled into the water.

In the blink of an eye, they had already dived into the water and disappeared.

The invincible sound waves disappeared, and the surroundings became quiet. It was as if the arrogant mermaid beast had never appeared.

Shi Buyu, who was in a running posture, didn't even have time to lift his feet: "… …"

Gou Liang: "… …"

After sending Yu Sen and the others back to the armored vehicle, Jang Ren had already prepared the medical equipment. They didn't dare to relax until they ate two Level 2 Beast Pills and regained their freedom of movement. Only then did they let out a sigh of relief.

"How do you feel?"

Shi Buyu helped them up and asked.

Yu Lin said, "Damn, that thing's sound was too strange. We couldn't use our special abilities after hearing it, but we were still conscious."

The others also agreed.

The unluckiest one among them was Zhou Gao. When he fell, his face hit the ground. Now, he was holding the bruised left side of his face and cursing, "What the hell is this thing? It's too damn wicked! It should at least give the people who sneak attacked a quick death. If anyone was unlucky enough to become its prey and be swallowed alive, even if they didn't die from the pain, they would be scared to death. "
