Report

"I remember, that major general with black and white hair." Lucy gestured with her fingers.

"Catherine lived with the king snake for a while, and she is familiar with the species. She once said that the king snake was a wonderful and dangerous species. They had the instinct to adapt to the environment and evolve. In other words, in theory, a species like the king snake can live in any environment. Even in extreme environments, it is possible for it to survive. "

"Catherine is very interested in the king snake. She believes that the king snake's blood can give other creatures the same evolutionary instincts. In this way, even an ordinary life will one day evolve into a high-level life in the universe. But I don't think that's possible. Unless the genes of the original life can be completely transformed into the genes of the king snake, it will be very difficult to inherit the instinct of the king snake. " Allen had absorbed the blood energy of the king snake himself. The snake blood had indeed brought him some changes, but it was far from as exaggerated as Catherine had said.

Lucy shrugged and said, "My biology is only elementary. I can't answer such a profound question. However, as far as I know, the genes of the two species are very difficult to combine or inherit, although one possible way is to reproduce hybrid offspring. However, this is not the result that Major General Catherine expects. "

"I think so too, but Catherine doesn't think so. And I think there will be many people who think the same way as her. In addition, mutants like the king snake are almost extinct on the surface. Once Bai's existence is discovered, it will bring a lot of unnecessary trouble. "Allen said," So, it's ideal to bring it to the Outer Realm. "

"Don't you think so, Bai?"

The white snake nodded as if it understood.

Lucy stretched and lay on the grass, "You really have a lot of secrets."

Allen smiled without saying a word.

A few days later, the public airship finally had a flight to District 7. Allen arrived at Statue of Liberty Harbor and found that there were surprisingly few passengers heading to District 7. It was no wonder that District 7 was one of the districts that had declared independence, although the Gate of Freedom had repeatedly stressed that they would not let the independence movement affect normal traffic and travel between the floating island and the surface. However, the situation on the ground was turbulent. If it wasn't necessary, not many people were willing to go to the area controlled by the Gate of Freedom at this time.

Allen put on the necessary disguise, and now he looked like a mercenary who had just started out. The two automatic pistols on his waist were a good disguise, and all signs related to Bescot were removed. In addition, he also carried a black box on his back. This long metal black box contained the heavy saber Qianjun. The metal used in the black box was the fourth generation of composite metal developed by the Morsen family. The saber case made of it could withstand the heavy pressure of Qianjun, which allowed Allen to no longer have to carry the heavy saber wherever he went.

As for the Devil's Praise, it was naturally hidden on his body.

With Qianjun and the Origin Tool in hand, even if he ran into an ordinary Awakened, Allen would still have the strength to fight. Thus, he was not too careless on this trip to the surface.

At this time, in Castle Ugarte. Horn was reading the documents when the butler, Helsing, walked in. Seeing Helsing's expression change, Horn put down his work and said, "Mr. Helsing, what happened?"

"I've found out about the predators." Helsing said in a deep voice.

A strange howl suddenly sounded in the quiet study. The doors and windows of the study trembled violently. Horn slowly stood up, and the chair beneath him shattered silently. Horn said word by word, "Which predator?"

Sweat broke out on Steward Helsing's face as he said, "It's the one that attacked Miss's town back then. According to our latest information, the area where the predators are most active is in District 7!"

"District 7?" Horn said, "Allen is going there now."

"Yes, Master. Do you want to intercept Young Master? "

Horn looked at the clock on the wall and shook his head. "It's too late. I'm afraid the public airship has already set off. How about this, Mr. Helsing. Contact our family members near District 7 and have them form a squad to find Allen in case anything unexpected happens. "

"I'll do it immediately."

After Helsing left, the shaking in the study stopped. Horn took off his glasses, closed his eyes, and whispered, "Is this a coincidence of fate? At this time, Lanny, you have to look after Allen and don't let anything happen to him. "

It was already afternoon when the public airship landed on the airship apron in District 7. After Allen got off the airship, he took out his brain and took a look. Between Graybridge Town, where the Pitts lived, and the apron, there was a long, curved dotted line. The dotted line passed through a large mountainous area, through a forest, and finally pointed to a valley. That was where Graybridge Town was located.

Allen showed his Babylon pass as proof that he rented a super off-road vehicle from the airport and bought enough fuel for his trip back and forth. The chassis of this off-road vehicle was obviously higher and equipped with steel baffles that looked like the fangs of a ferocious beast. The powerful sound of the engine showed that it was well maintained. At the very least, it had enough power to pass through those mountains and forests.

Sitting in this rough car, Allen's figure looked a little thin, which worried the man who filled the tank with gasoline for him. Of course, he was not worried about Allen, but about the rental car. Although Allen had already paid a deposit, it was not easy to get a cheap and good car in the current situation.

Allen naturally didn't know about this. As soon as he finished refueling, he started the engine. After the exhaust pipe at the rear spat out a scorching stream of air, the wheels of the off-road vehicle began to spin forcefully, leaving the apron and driving towards the empty and vast land. Allen simply put his brain next to the steering wheel. The route displayed on his brain was screened. This route bypassed several towns controlled by the Gate of Freedom in District 7, avoiding most of the trouble.

Silence all the way.

Three days later, Graybridge Town was in sight.

Graybridge Town was located at the bottom of an unnamed valley. Above the valley was the remains of a bridge. Most of the names of Graybridge Town came from this. The town was located on the outskirts of the valley. The residents of the town grew crops in the valley and were completely self-sufficient. On the desolate surface, Graybridge Town was no different from this valley. When people stood on a high slope and saw a patch of flowers and plants of different colors in the valley from afar, Allen could understand why the Pitts had chosen to settle here.

However, Graybridge Town didn't seem to be very peaceful these days. Due to the low buildings, the town could almost be seen at a glance. There was a square in the town that could be used for normal gatherings. The only tall building in the square was a clock tower. There was a black flag on it. Allen looked through his binoculars and saw an arch painted with white paint on the flag.

That's the symbol of the Gate of Freedom.

Allen frowned. There were soldiers on duty on the clock tower, and several soldiers were walking in the square. There were about twenty soldiers stationed in the town. It seemed that the town had been controlled by the Gate of Freedom. Allen put down his binoculars, took out Peter's necklace and looked at it. He put it back into his clothes. He drove the car to a hidden place, pulled up the tarpaulin, and picked up withered branches and grass from nearby for simple camouflage before walking down the slope.

Pa!

A hand slapped his face, causing his fat flesh to tremble. The fat mountain boar-like man put a machine gun on his shoulder and drove away the mountain mosquitoes with his other hand. He complained, "Damn it, how long are we going to stay in this place where birds don't shit? In my opinion, wouldn't it be a waste of time to just rob the food from the people in the town? Wouldn't it be a waste of time to do business with them seriously? "

A man wearing a cowboy hat was wiping his rifle and said, "What can we do? Our captain is Jean, and he is famous for being a nice guy."

"It must be broken here." The fatty pointed at his head and said, "Captain Jean always thinks of himself as a savior. If he can really save the world, we don't have to make any independent movements."

The two of them were on duty at the checkpoint outside the town entrance. They seemed to be soldiers of the Gate of Freedom. They rambled on and on to pass the time. Suddenly, the cowboy said, "Look, we have a guest."

A slightly thin and weak figure appeared in their line of sight. It seemed to be an adventurer who was traveling on foot. He was wearing shorts and jeans, and most of his hair and face were covered with a scarf. Only a pair of ruby-like eyes were revealed to block the wind and sand. He was carrying a long box on his back, and it was unknown what it contained. However, on the traveler's belt, there were two automatic pistols and a few magazines, showing that he was not as weak as he looked.

At the very least, he was able to arrive at Graybridge Town safely. He must have some extraordinary abilities.

"Slaughter?" The cowboy whispered.

The fatty smiled maliciously, "Slaughter, but you have to have a sense of propriety. Maybe he's a troublesome guy. "

The cowboy whistled and said, "Just kick the captain if there's anything."

"I knew you weren't a good person." The fatty scolded and pointed the machine gun on his shoulder forward. He shouted, "Stop, people in front. Graybridge Town is temporarily under the jurisdiction of our Gate of Freedom. You are not allowed to enter unless you have something important. "

The traveler said in a very young voice, "I'm looking for someone. My uncle Peter lives in town. "

He even gave an exact address.

The fatty glanced at his companion and said, "I can let you in, but you have to pay a customs fee. After all, we are protecting this town now. "

"How much?" The traveler asked after a moment of silence.

Both of the soldiers laughed.

The cowboy revealed his yellow teeth and arched his hat with his rifle. "That depends on how much you can take out. You see, it's not easy for us to protect this town, is it? "

"I only have a few hundred yuan on me." The traveler seemed to be embarrassed and replied after a while.
