C10 – Jade Gorge Mountain

Loong Chen’s words snapped Bai Xiaohan back to reality. At that moment, she gazed at Loong Chen with profound admiration. Senior Loong Chen had defeated an advanced zombie; he must be an Evolver.

Ordinary people always held reverence towards Evolver.

The two of them continued walking for over half an hour until they finally exited the city. The primary reason for their slow pace was Bai Xiaohan’s limited speed. If they were more acquainted with each other, Loong Chen would have embraced her and swiftly fled.

Jade Gorge Mountain was situated just outside Death City, not too far from their current location. In comparison to Death City, the mountain posed even greater danger.

This was because prior to the apocalypse, numerous wild animals inhabited Jade Gorge Mountain.

However, after the world-ending event, almost two-thirds of these animals had mutated into fierce, formidable beasts.

As they ventured into Jade Gorge Mountain, Bai Xiaohan drew closer to Loong Chen. The area was overgrown with dense vegetation, making it possible for a mutated beast to suddenly emerge.

A faint hissing sound reached their ears. Although Bai Xiaohan failed to detect it due to its subtle nature, Loong Chen possessed acute hearing and thus perceived it.

Instantly, he swiftly pulled Bai Xiaohan, who was beside him, and swung his Battle Saber in her direction.

Bai Xiaohan’s face instantly turned pale. She stared at the Battle Saber slashing towards her and found herself on the brink of despair. Could it be that she had truly misjudged Loong Chen?

Did he really want to kill her just like Liu Zhe?

Bai Xiaohan closed her eyes in despair, but there was no pain. So she opened her eyes again and found a green poisonous snake fell to the ground.

And it broke into two pieces and died.

Bai Xiaohan instantly understood. So Senior Loong Chen was saving her. When she thought about how she suspected him just now, she couldn’t help but blame herself.

“Senior Loong Chen, thank you for saving my life again.”

Bai Xiaohan said softly.

“You need to be cautious here. The mountain forest is inhabited by mutated beasts, which are even more formidable to deal with here.”

Loong Chen explained, using the example of the green venomous snake. Although it was merely an ordinary mutated beast, its camouflage blending with the surroundings made it extremely difficult to detect.

Shortly after their departure, they had already faced numerous waves of attacks from ordinary mutated beasts.

Loong Chen understood that this was due to them still being in the outskirts. Once they delved deeper into this region, they would encounter even stronger mutated beasts.

Before long, as they ventured further into the Jade Gorge Mountain, they found themselves surrounded by over twenty wolves.

Most of these wolves were ordinary mutated beasts. However, wolves were social creatures, excelling in group battles.

Loong Chen had to prioritize protecting Bai Xiaohan, leaving him unable to fully engage in combat.

“I’m going to offend you. Sorry.”

Loong Chen looked at Bai Xiaohan and said something strange.

Before Bai Xiaohan could react, Loong Chen held her slender waist and carried her on his shoulder.

“Earth Spike Assault!”

Long Chen let out a resounding shout. One after another, Earth Spikes emerged from the ground. In an instant, sorrowful howls echoed through the air.

These twenty or so mutated wolves had not anticipated that Long Chen possessed such a skill that allowed for a group attack. Each one of them was impaled in the abdomen by the Earth Spikes and died on the spot.

“The mountain forest is undoubtedly the territory of mutated beasts, but with my Earth Ability, I have an advantage.”

Loong Chen sneered.

“Senior Loong Chen, can you put me down first?”

At this time, Bai Xiaohan’s weak voice sounded. This was the first time she was hugged by a man other than her father and brother.

“Not right now.”

Loong Chen shook his head slowly, because the danger had not been resolved yet.

Another wolf howl sounded, and Loong Chen narrowed his eyes.

He was aware that within the wolf pack, there was likely a Wolf King whose strength would surpass that of ordinary wolves.

As expected, in the following moment, a massive Wolf King, twice the size of an ordinary mutated wolf, appeared before Long Chen.
