"Sir, the mutant Giant Jungle Anaconda has been killed."
In front of the screen, a soldier spoke into his headset.
Not long after, a senior officer in a dark green military uniform walked over.
The scene in front of him was of a giant anaconda lying in the forest, its body mottled with blood.
Beside it stood a huge skeleton and a boy in a short-sleeved shirt. There was a centipede at the boy's feet.
"Replay the footage," the senior officer ordered.
The soldier in front of the screen obeyed and quickly typed on the keyboard.
The images stored in the hard drive were replayed. From the initial attack of the Giant Jungle Anaconda to the Skull Ghoul Ape's desperate battle, the entire scene was replayed. Due to the camera, the specific movements could not be seen clearly. The only thing that could be seen was that some kind of ability was used.
After the senior officer finished watching, he nodded silently and looked deeply at Gao Peng on the screen. "To be able to kill a giant mutant Giant Jungle Anaconda, even if this familiar isn't at the commander tier, it's at least at the commander tier."
After a pause, he said, "Send me this young man's information."
The watches on everyone's wrists had a GPS system. Through the GPS system, everyone's identity could be analyzed.
In just a moment, Gao Peng's information was found and displayed on the screen.
On the screen was Gao Peng's picture, next to Gao Peng's resume.
Name: Gao Peng
Age: 18
Gender: Male
School: Chang 'an No. 3 High School
Family Background: Information encrypted, insufficient authority
The senior officer raised his eyebrows. This authority was used by the branch of the training base, which had C-level authority. Normally, people from ordinary families, or even the average rich family, wouldn't have access to confidential information.
According to the definition before the Cataclysm, at least the mayor would have C-level authority, while provincial governors would have B-level authority.
The senior officer was stunned. He didn't expect Gao Peng to have such authority. However, since he had confidential information, it seemed like he couldn't just casually recruit him. This was because people with such status basically had their own factions and forces. The senior officer waved his hand helplessly.
"Keep an eye on him. Try not to let anything happen to him," the senior officer ordered and turned to leave.
…
Because he didn't bring any knives, Gao Peng called Da Zi over.
Even though the Giant Jungle Anaconda was already dead, its aura still lingered. Da Zi was still wary.
He had Da Zi climb onto the Giant Jungle Anaconda's body and cut off its head. Normally, monsters' Crystal Cores were stored in their skulls. A small number of monsters' Crystal Cores were stored in their hearts.
Da Zi carefully climbed up and opened his sharp mandibles. Like two scissors, he slid them across his scalp.
However, it went smoother than expected.
The Giant Jungle Anaconda's tough vine skin provided it with a lot of defense and resistance against blunt force attacks.
But in the face of a sharp weapon, it seemed powerless.
With a light tear, it was torn open from head to toe.
The sound of paper tearing could be heard.
The pitch-black interior of the body was revealed.
There was nothing inside. It was empty. Gao Peng was a little stunned.
A large part of the seemingly full body was, in fact, hollow.
This also explained why the Giant Jungle Anaconda was able to float in the upper layer of the forest and why it did not create a deep crater when it fell from such a height.
Inside, there were thick, greenish-gray vines that connected all the organs and organs of the body.
Finally, they found a wood-type monster Crystal Core the size of a broad bean in the Giant Jungle Anaconda's skull.
During this process, Dumb stood silently behind Gao Peng. He put on a black cloak and breathed slowly. After the violent explosion just now, Dumb looked a little sluggish.
Calling him "weak" was not really true. After all, this was Dumb's "normal" state.
Previously, Dumb had been in a state where his strength was increased by the activation of the "Blood-Thread Heart."
This was one of the Blood-Thread Heart's passive abilities.
It could increase the strength of the Blood-Thread Heart's host. At the same time, it had many other uses. It was like giving Dumb a weapon. How much he could use the weapon depended on Dumb's own development and training.
The Blood-Thread Heart was only temporarily destroyed, but it could still be reborn. It was just that during the period of time when the Blood-Thread Heart was lost, the passive effect would also disappear.
"Let's go." Gao Peng took care of Dumb and Da Zi as they left. The commotion here must have alerted many creatures. If they did not leave, other monsters would definitely come.
The deeper they went into the valley, the darker the light became. The sun above their heads was almost blocked by the dense foliage.
The temperature in the air seemed to have dropped quite a bit. Dumb felt a sense of joy.
This cool feeling made him feel very comfortable.
Gao Peng glanced at Dumb. Dumb was a ghoul. According to Chinese classification, he was a ghost. Things like ghosts liked places with strong Yin energy.
Although the living room at home was dark with the curtains drawn all year round, the living room was located in a residential area. There were many people in the residential area, so the Yang energy was naturally strong.
Zhu Jian Schools liked to build in places like mass graves and graveyards. One reason was that graveyards were cheap. Another reason was that they hoped to use the strong Yang energy of the students in the schools to suppress the Yin energy.
Humans naturally had Yang energy in their bodies, and it was extremely strong.
Therefore, in densely populated residential areas, it was almost impossible to find a place with strong Yin energy.
In the depths of the valley, there was no sunlight all year round. Almost all the sunlight was blocked by tall rock walls and trees. They had already reached the deepest part of the valley. Green vines could be seen hanging down from the top of the cliff.
Lifting the vines, the dark green cliff was covered in moss. Water vapor seeped out from the other side of the cliff.
The soil under their feet was moist. Dumb seemed to be very happy with his surroundings.
From time to time, he would touch the surrounding trees and flowers.
From time to time, he would squat down and gently pick up a clump of soil.
The soil would secretly slip through the gaps between his fingers. Dumb stared blankly at this scene.
Gao Peng let out a long breath. The surrounding air was very moist and cool. It made him feel a little cold in his short-sleeved shirt.
Dumb and Da Zi were like two children who had been cooped up in the house for a long time and suddenly came out for an outing. They ran around excitedly.
Gao Peng didn't pay attention and saw Dumb secretly squatting there to eat something. Da Zi anxiously laid on Dumb's back. "I want to eat, I want to eat."
Gao Peng only saw Dumb chewing something when he got closer.
Dumb didn't have a stomach ache anyway, so Gao Peng didn't stop him.
