N-A-A Chapter 31 Escort, Loot
Chapter 31 Escort, Loot
"The power of the Lord-level Black Scale Python is indeed extraordinary."
A smile appeared on Qin Ming's face as he felt an astonishing warm current flowing out from within the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
When Liu Xu carried the enormous corpse of the Black-Scaled Python to the front of the caravan and shouted to drive away the beast tide, the Black-Scaled Python's soul naturally entered the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.
"Haha, that's for sure. Even if a monster is dead, the power contained in its corpse will still terrify lower-level monsters."
"If it weren't for the laser cannon, even I would have a hard time killing it."
Liu Xu placed the head of the black-scaled python by the roadside and laughed heartily as he spoke.
"You did a great job! If you hadn't blocked that concrete boulder, the entire convoy would have suffered heavy losses in that attack. I'll remember this merit."
I'll go and deal with the black-scaled python's corpse first, and I'll tell you later.
Yue Shan, go and help dismember that dragon turtle corpse and take it away. The corpse of a mid-level lord-level dragon turtle is worth at least 5 billion Chinese yuan.
This can't be wasted.
Liu Xu naturally witnessed Qin Ming blocking the attack of the black-scaled giant python.
But this wasn't the time to talk; he was in a hurry to deal with the black-scaled python's corpse.
"Yes, I'll go help right away."
Seeing that Qin Ming was alright, Yue Shan was relieved. He placed his shield on the still-speeding tank, picked up his battle axe, and leaped up, charging like a cannonball toward the dragon turtle's corpse.
"I'll go help too!"
Qin Ming's eyes lit up, and he was about to fly over as well. This was the soul of a mid-level lord-level monster!
With the dragon turtle's soul, the Myriad Soul Banner now contains the souls of three lord-level monsters. After refining them, one can suppress or even kill a war god-level expert.
"What are you going to do? Get some rest first."
With your slender arms and legs, you couldn't even lift the dragon turtle's corpse.
The convoy had not yet left the city, and the danger was not completely over.
If you want to go take a look, you can go after we leave the city.
Lu Haochuan scolded him impatiently.
The carcass of this dragon turtle was a full thirty meters in diameter, practically a mountain of flesh. How enormous it was!
Even a high-ranking general like Yue Shan would have difficulty breaking through the skin membrane with a battle axe, let alone Qin Ming. How could he know that Qin Ming was after the monster's soul?
"Oh well."
Seeing that the captain had said so, Qin Ming stopped insisting.
After all, their mission was to protect the safety of the convoy ahead, and he had already seen Liu Xu rush towards the dragon turtle corpse after dismantling the black-scaled python's corpse and loading it into the heavy truck.
Unlike ordinary martial arts teams who carry backpacks and only take the most valuable parts, the military doesn't clean up monster corpses by taking everything!
These heavy trucks are all super trucks, 10 meters high and over 40 meters long, with a maximum carrying capacity of 3000 tons.
Even the corpses of enormous creatures like dragon turtles can be packed up and taken away.
The supply and transportation of War Base 003 relies on these super trucks.
The convoy continued its journey.
About half an hour later, they passed through the ruins of city 003 and entered the suburban area.
Wherever it went, the monsters dared not attack, and all kept their distance.
"The military is really domineering. We were so careful when entering City 003, afraid of being discovered by the monsters. But they just let large groups of them in and out, and the monsters avoided them."
It made me a little tempted; I even considered joining the military.
In the distance, hidden among the tall buildings, a tall, thin martial artist watched the convoy depart and sighed in admiration.
"How can that be the same? Didn't you see that both lord-level monsters that led the beast horde attack were dealt with by the military using the most brutal methods?"
After several rounds of bombardment, the number of dead and wounded monsters exceeded one hundred thousand.
This is a staggering number for us, but it's nothing to the military.
Every year, our China experiences twenty to thirty beast tides of level three or higher.
Those are monsters with at least a million of them!
The first-level beast tide consists of hundreds of millions of monsters.
Imagine what kind of scene that would be.
It may seem glamorous, but every time they manage to hold out, the military suffers enormous losses.
The order has been given; even martial artists must fill in the blanks.
Beside the tall, thin martial artist, an older martial artist shook his head.
"That's true. Martial arts schools offer much more freedom. They can hunt monsters whenever they want, and rest in the base city when they're tired. Military martial artists can't compare."
The tall, thin martial artist laughed.
The number of martial artists joining martial arts schools each year far exceeds the number joining the military.
Such scenes were constantly unfolding in the ruins of City 003.
City 003 boasts the most diverse architectural complex in all of Asia, and its monster population is staggering.
The monster also attracted a large number of top martial artists to this place!
Even martial artists from other base cities in China have come here specifically!
The fierce battle on the outskirts of the city, with its constant artillery fire, naturally attracted many martial artists to watch secretly.
……
Once outside the city, the convoy was safe, and Qin Ming took the opportunity to run to the middle of the convoy and harvest a wave of monster souls from the trucks.
The quality of the monster souls in this batch is extremely high.
Apart from the Dragon Turtle Soul, the weakest of the rest are all at the Beast General level.
Standing in the sky, looking down at the super truck filled with the corpses of beast generals and the surging monster souls, Qin Ming couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
This wave of profits is huge!
The only pity is that I can only absorb souls. If only I could also harvest flesh and blood.
The Myriad Soul Banner is not far from reaching level 1.
"Is this what the wilderness looks like? It's so desolate."
Sitting on top of the tank, Qin Ming watched the city of 003 disappear into the distance behind him.
The convoy proceeded along the dilapidated highway, which had long been in disrepair and had been completely cracked by heavy tanks and super trucks that had driven over it.
At first glance, this stretching highway is a sight to behold.
On both sides of the road, there are dilapidated or broken cars, trucks, and even some broken tanks and armored vehicles scattered everywhere.
Clearly, this place has been the site of numerous major battles.
Even after many years, traces of blood, now blackened, can still be seen on the ground from time to time.
"This place is considered good. We pass through it once a month and occasionally do some rough repairs. Otherwise, it would be much more desolate."
Many areas are now completely covered by vegetation, making it impossible to see what they originally looked like.
Sitting on the roof of the vehicle, the members of the Sky Sword Squad chatted casually.
"At our speed, we should be able to reach the Southeast Military Region's forward supply base before dark. Once we get there, we can have a good rest for two days."
After replenishing our supplies, we set off again.
Don't you want some books about mindset and willpower?
"I've bought everything for you; it's already at the supply depot."
Lu Haochuan looked at Qin Ming and smiled.
War Base No. 003 belongs to the Southeast Military Region.
"You've already bought it? Thank you, Captain."
Qin Ming exclaimed in delight.
"Haha, it's nothing."
"We can test Qin Ming's strength later. I even suspect that his physical qualities have reached the level of a junior warrior and he possesses the mental power of a senior warrior."
It actually withstood an attack from a Lord-level monster.
"Let's go together! Let's go together!"
"..."
The group chatted freely as the sun gradually set and night fell.
A massive military base appeared in the distance.
We've arrived at the Southeast Military Region supply base.
