"Monsters? Survivors? Wei Xun muttered to himself, not understanding why Chen Feng was asking such questions. However, he had learned his lesson and knew that he only needed to answer. Questioning and refuting had become a huge taboo.
Wei Xun thought for a moment and then said, "There's a trading station two miles south. There's a lot of food stored there. We went there to investigate before, hoping to get more food, but …"
"There's a cemetery there, but there's no tombstone. We didn't pay much attention to it at first, but halfway through our search, some terrifying monsters crawled out of the cemetery. They were blood-red all over and had sharp nails. They looked like skinned wild dogs. In order to move the food, thirteen of us went there. In the end, only Yuan Wen and I escaped alive …"
"From then on, no one dared to go out with us. Furthermore, we never went near the trading station again." Wei Xun lowered his head and said in a low voice. Although some time had passed, this incident still left him with some lingering fear.
Cemetery, wild dogs, sharp claws …
Ghouls?
Chen Feng quickly outlined the appearance of this monster in his mind.
Ghouls were a type of rotting corpse that looked like hyenas with sharp claws. They spoke in a hurried, sobbing voice. As they often foraged in graves, their bodies were mostly covered in fungus that grew in graves.
They would plunder graves and feed on the flesh of the dead or young children. When they didn't eat, they would bury themselves in graves to rest.
Ghouls were cruel and treacherous. This was a group of creatures that didn't know when to stop. When there was enough food, they would eat until their stomachs were about to burst.
Just like how humans built houses, ghouls would modify the surrounding land to create a suitable environment for themselves. The thicker the grave, the stronger the ghouls. They would bury food that they couldn't eat together with themselves in the grave.
They were a type of creature that was agile but didn't have outstanding defense.
If they wanted to expand their manpower, food was an essential resource. Emptying the trading station could completely resolve the food crisis at hand.
Key points.
"What else?" Chen Feng's interest was piqued and he continued to ask.
"There's a botanical garden in the north. There's a swarm of bees, each as big as a fist, with scarlet eyes. There's a huge needle on their abdomens. I've only looked at it from afar, but I didn't get close …"
Wei Xun's face was a little pale, as if he had recalled something terrifying. He let out a breath and muttered, "I saw … those bees used human bodies to build their nests, just like a beehive. Their bodies were densely packed with holes. I roughly counted the corpses that I could see, there were more than a dozen …"
Bloodthirsty Bees.
This was a rare creature. Unlike the bees in the past, which collected pollen to make honey, this creature drank human blood to age its honey.
Blood honey.
This was a great tonic. Not only could it speed up the recovery of injuries, but if it was taken over a long period of time, it could even increase one's physical strength and eliminate old ailments.
In the black market, a gram of blood honey could be exchanged for a beautiful virgin.
One could imagine how precious this honey was.
It was precisely because it was so precious that some inhumane forces would even breed this creature and sell it. Blood honey had the greatest effect when aged with the blood of young children. Chen Feng had once destroyed the nest of a family's enemy. That was one of the few scenes that left a deep impression on him.
