Suspicious Areas

Especially now that the spiritual energy had recovered, the depths of the sea had become a forbidden area.

One had to know that the first place to recover spiritual energy was the sea.

And now, in the depths of the sea, no one knew what kind of monsters were lurking.

Shaking his head, the square-faced middle-aged soldier also looked helpless.

Having been in the army for more than thirty years, this was the first time he felt that it was really troublesome.

Fortunately, those major events were handled by the special forces. What he needed to do now was to supervise the places with abnormal spiritual power in this province.

If he found any abnormal situations or dangers, he had to nip it in the bud.

After all, according to the speculation of some experts—along with evolution—these mutated beasts would most likely not be satisfied with their territory, so they would leave their territory and start hunting in the true sense of the word.

At that time, it would be imaginable for the mutated beasts to attack the city.

Thus, as the lieutenant-general guarding the area...

The responsibility on his shoulders was very heavy.

"Sort out the areas where the peak of spiritual power has exceeded 5000 and pass it to me."

"Yes, sir."

Nodding his head, the young soldier Jack took a look at the map. The corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch.

Peak spiritual power exceeding 50,000...

This time, the officer was probably going to be shocked.

Peak spiritual power was a human standard for measuring the strength of spiritual power.

Generally speaking, when the highest peak spiritual power exceeding 5,000, the probability of a mutated beast with peak spiritual power exceeding 5,000 was extremely high.

Here, it was worth mentioning that creatures with peak spiritual power exceeding 1,000 were enough to threaten armed soldiers.

Creatures with a peak spiritual power of more than 5,000 could even ignore bullets and other conventional weapons.

Simply put, they were truly monsters with terrifying lethality. It wasn't that the army or experts of the same level couldn't fight against them.

And once monsters of this level swarmed into the city, the disaster they would cause was also imaginable.

As such, stopping or even killing creatures of this level was also the responsibility of this mysterious organization.

After Jack handed the map to the square-faced middle-aged soldier, a cry of surprise rang out in the office.

"What? There are eight places with peak spiritual power exceeding five thousand?"

"There's another place with peak spiritual power exceeding eighteen thousand? Are you kidding me? Are you sure it's not a problem with the measuring instrument?"

...

Jack's face was solemn. "Sir, this is the result after several tests but we can't rule out the possibility of a spirit river or a spirit mine coming into being."

"Phew..."

Letting out a deep breath, the square-faced soldier looked at the young soldier and said with a wry smile, "Do you think spirit river or spirit mines are like cabbages? That they're everywhere?"

As he said that, his gaze slightly focused again. He took a deep look at the area that was as red as blood on the map.

"Beiyu Canyon."

It was located in the region of Sichuan Province, deep in the mountains.

Not only was the traffic inconvenient but the mountain roads were also difficult to walk on.

It was not surprising that a terrifying mutated beast had appeared.

However, how terrifying would a mutated beast with a peak spiritual power of 18,000 be?

...

Close to noon.

Sunlight shone down from the clouds.

It cast a huge light spot in the air.

The dust floated in the empty space, moving like a slow-motion camera into countless tiny galaxies, just like the tiny universe in the slides that they had seen in geography class.

And this was not an illusion.

In this era of spiritual power recovery, the spiritual energy that was like the color of sunlight scattered by a prism filled the air.

If one had a special mental ability, they would be able to catch some fluctuations of the spiritual energy or see the spiritual energy.

As a tier 1 creature, Lin Meng could naturally see the spiritual energy.

Lin Meng looked at the colorful spiritual energy in the sky, which looked like a dream, and couldn't help but be in a daze.

"It's so beautiful!"

With a smile, Lin Meng turned his gaze back to the canyon.

At this moment, the entire canyon was covered in white fog.

The fog rushed into the distance like a tide.

"In a few days, this mountain will be my hunting ground."

His words were filled with anticipation.

Because he was the only person in the entire canyon, he did not hide his words.

The rest were animals or souls.

No one could understand his joy at this moment.

The fog was his other pair of eyes.

With the help of the fog, Lin Meng's perception would have a qualitative improvement.

Although it would not be so subtle that even ants could sense their movements, some big movements could still be detected.

At that time, Lin Meng would truly be at ease.

At least, when humans did not use missiles or intercontinental missiles, his safety would be guaranteed.

In this way, he would have enough time to develop.

Just as Lin Meng was deep in thought, a howl suddenly woke him up.

He looked up.

A few gray wolves that were locked in the tree cage propped themselves up one after another.

"Howl, howl, howl..."

The howls did not stop.

A pair of green eyes flickered with a fierce light.

Wolves were social animals.

At night, in the open mountain wilderness—in the quiet forest—as long as there was a wolf howling, the rest would also stretch their necks and howl along.

It made one's whole body tremble with fear.

And now, these gray wolves that were locked in the tree cage.

They all bared their teeth and spat out long blood-red tongues, their gazes focused on the golden giant eagle's corpse not far away.

"Is it hungry?"

Lin Meng guessed.

After a moment, the branches slowly extended out, and with a twist, the branches reached into the tree cage.

"Ao..."

A howl.

The wolf in the tree cage retreated and bent slightly. Its front legs extended forward and it was in a posture of charging upwards.

Its eyes flickered with a fierce light as it firmly held onto the branch that Lin Meng had reached in.

"You want to give it a try?"

Lin Meng sneered. Even though he knew that the wolf could not hear him, Lin Meng still carried out the threat in his words.

Like a human's finger, he hooked it, very arrogant.

"Ao..."

Another howl.

The wolf took a step back uneasily.

It had seen the ferocity of this tree demon before.

The reverence for the "powerful" in his bones made him hesitate.

However.

Gulp, gulp...

The wolf's stomach growled with hunger. The food in the distance was too tempting.

Bang!

Its hind legs shook the ground.

The gray wolf jumped high, opened its bloody mouth, and fiercely bit down on Lin Meng's branches.

Pa!

A branch fiercely hit down.

The sound was clear and crisp.

It sounded in the thick fog.

In order to let the other animals see clearly, Lin Meng deliberately dispersed the thick fog beside the gray wolf.

He saw that in the tree cage, a gray wolf was curled up in a corner, and couldn't help but tremble.

There was a blood-red whip mark on its body.

The gray wolf's eyes were filled with fear as it whimpered softly.

At this moment, that branch slowly extended over...

It approached it bit by bit until it was about to approach it. Out of instinct, the gray wolf bared its teeth.
