Chapter 118: The Ultimate Creature!


    Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios


    Everything in Linhai County happened suddenly and quietly.


    As a result, Simba and the other zombies did not realize that their new boss had be one with the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.


    They were even more unaware of the changes that the once harmless Blood Flesh Mother Tree had undergone after Gris’s guidance.


    Within Linhai County.


    The fungusyer around the Blood Flesh Mother Tree undted, and countless roots wriggled crazily underground.


    On the tree canopy, arge number of human heads began to mutter to themselves. If one listened carefully, one would realize that these heads were discussing everything they had seen, heard, and thought before their fusion with the Blood Flesh Mother Tree!


    Regardless of whether they were humans or zombies.


    Regardless of whether they had human forms or beastly shapes.


    A massive amount of nutrient reserves stored by the Blood Flesh Mother Tree were frantically transported to these heads.


    Soon, these human heads began to growrger.


    After growing to the size of a normal human head, these human heads suddenly stopped muttering.


    This was because the Blood Flesh Mother Tree hadpletely integrated everything they knew!


    “The Holy Tower, ck Mist Zone…”


    “Humans, Awakened…”


    “Zombies, Devourers…”


    “Exotic Beasts, Monsters…”


    If every human head waspared to a cell, then the Blood Flesh Mother Tree was the main body.


    It seemed no different from a normal creature at first nce, but the truly terrifying part was that every cell of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree possessed intelligence not inferior to that of humans. They had normal thinking, reasoning, and even learning abilities.


    Furthermore, it still had room for further evolution!


    Countless memories were digested and absorbed by the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.


    Likeputers being thoroughly integrated into a supeputer.


    The powerfulputing power rapidly elevated the intelligence of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree. In just half an hour, it no longer had the naive appearance it had before.


    Reflecting on its conversation with Gris, the Blood Flesh Mother Tree, through a female head, murmured softly to itself, “Power. I need power.”


    “Because in this world, without power, I have no capital to sustain my existence. Without power, 1’11 easily be someone else’s research subject.”


    It understood that it was special.


    As for the ck Mist King, ambitious goals, and so on, those were too distant. Intelligent beings would not risk their lives for overly distant goals; they would focus on living in the present.


    “For me, the most pressing issue is the shrinking of the ck Mist. It won’t be long before I’m swallowed by the ck Mist and enter the ck Mist Zone. ording to Gris’s memories, there are too many terrifying monsters in the ck Mist Zone, and my current power won’t give me an advantage there.”


    “I need to evolve again and be stronger.”


    So, how to be stronger?


    This was a question that the Blood Flesh Mother Tree did not need to ponder for long because the way to be stronger was imprinted in its genes and instincts.


    “More nutrition, and more biological samples.”


    The sound of rustling filled the air.


    As the branches of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree trembled, one head after another fell from the mother tree as if they were ripe fruit,nding on the fungusyer below.


    The heads sank as if submerged in a swamp.


    But soon, with the wriggling of the fungusyer, the heads floated up again.


    Unlike before, this time, they had a body.


    Bizarre bodies of different shapes and colors!


    Some humanoid monsters had humanoid bodies with eight tentacles on their backs—they had the bodies of Devourers.


    Some humanoid monsters had Tank-like massive bodies.


    Some humanoid monsters resembling ckbirds could fly high with a p of their wings.


    Some humanoid monsters were like Six-Legged Wolf Bears. Their bodies were strong and agile, and they opened their mouths to let out strange roars.


    There were all sorts of strange and grotesque creatures, turning Linhai County into a hell on earth.


    As for thest three humanoid monsters, they were almost simr to humans.


    The only difference was that their pupils were blood-red, and their eyes seemed to contain a sea of blood.


    There were probably over a thousand humanoid monsters.


    After helping them shape their bodies, the Blood Flesh Mother Tree seemed exhausted and tired.


    The massive tree canopy drooped weakly, but it managed to transmit one finalmand to the minds of the humanoid monsters.


    “Nutrients, more nutrients!”


    “I need all the nutrients in Nanxiang City!”


    Obediently following the Mother Tree’s instructions, the humanoid monsters began to move.


    About an hourter, Simba keenly spotted figures slowly walking out of Linhai County.


    From the looks of it, they appeared to have the same posture as Gris.


    Just as Simba was about to approach and greet them, its expression suddenly changed.


    Shock and disbelief!


    Because it saw that the head on Gris’ body was not a blonde head with red eyes, but the head of a haggard and unrecognizable old man!


    “This…”


    Simba was momentarily stunned.


    After recovering from his daze, Simba’s instincts supported it to make the best choice!


    Pulling Lian Jie along, Simba turned and ran.


    However, they suddenly felt a tremendous oppressive force surging from behind.


    It was the natural suppression of a high-level zombie against a lower-level zombie!


    “Roar.”


    Lian Jie, who was beside him, suddenly let out a furious roar.


    It gave an entirely contradictorymand to the zombies around it – run in different directions!


    The sh ofmands caused a disturbance among the zombies, which in turn affected the suppression that the humanoid monsters had on Simba and Lian Jie.


    The two Devourers, who had barely regained their senses, did not dare to make a sound. They immediately began the part they were most familiar with escape!


    As a result, they naturally did not see what happened.


    There were more humanoid monsters surging out of Linhai County, sweeping in all directions.


    Neither did they see the zombie group, which had been painstakingly integrated, following the humanoid monsters’ instructions and entering Linhai County.


    They stood on the fungusyer.


    Then, they sank into the ground andpletely fused with the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.


    Day 114 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Monday.


    In the afternoon, Lu Ming went up the tower, preparing to practice his skills by shooting zombies.


    However, he suddenly saw a ck shadow flying toward him from the horizon.


    Familiar with the routine, Lu Ming picked up his heavy sniper rifle, feeling overjoyed—ckbird, right?


    The size definitely suggested it was a ckbird.


    Therefore, he could increase the reserves of Exotic Beast meat…


    But after this thought and while Lu Ming was aiming at the target, what appeared in the scope was not the cute head of the ckbird, but a female humanoid head.


    The appearance was beyond creepy…


    Lu Ming was so startled that he quivered. His finger trembled as he instantly shot the humanoid bird dead.


    Then, Lu Ming carefully adjusted his mentality, and a strange expression slowly appeared on his face.


    “What on earth is this?”


    “And is it edible?”


    At the mention of food, Lu Ming instantly recalled the creepy face of the humanoid bird he had just shot and could not help but shudder.


    Eating this kind of thing… probably not a good idea…


    After some thought, Lu Ming descended from the observation tower and told Zhao Honglei about the incident.


    Zhao Honglei immediately patted his chest.


    “I’ll bring that thing back..”
