Chapter 159: Entering the Pollution Zone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After chatting with Li Guofu, Zhou Chen left the hospital and returned to the exploration team building.

It was noon. He boarded a long flying car and went to the pollution area with Teresa and two intelligent robots.

“Just the four of us?” Zhou Chen felt that this exploration team was really too small. There were only two living people and two robots in the entire team.

“Hehe, four is already not bad. When I heard that you left the exploration building, I thought that you had escaped. I was prepared to go with them.” action

Teresa smiled when she heard Zhou Chen’s mocking. She then glanced at the two male robots that looked no different from ordinary soldiers.

These two robots did not seem to like talking.

“Why are there so few people? Can’t we get more intelligent robots?” Zhou Chen asked.

“Of course not. Do you think these highly intelligent robots are those mass-produced goods? There are fewer than ten of them in our city,” Teresa explained to Zhou Chen helplessly.

“Alright…” Zhou Chen finally understood. This exploration team was extremely poor. Otherwise, they would not have recruited him on the streets.

The flying car flew for about two hours before stopping in a wasteland. After Zhou Chen, Teresa, and the two robots jumped down, it quickly returned.

This flying car would not wait for them because no one knew how long it would take for them to finish the exploration. They would need to send a message after the exploration was over, and the car would come to receive them.

“This is the B254 pollution zone. The intensity of the pollution is moderate which can be endured by us mutants.”

While moving forward in the wasteland, Teresa explained to Zhou Chen.

‘The intensity of moderate pollution is indeed within my tolerance…’ Although Zhou Chen was not a mutant, the passive Apocalyptic Resistance skill he obtained ensured that he could travel freely in the mild and moderate pollution areas, so there was no problem.

Before long, the group saw a city ruins ahead and a small group of monsters that looked like mutated wolfhounds running towards them.

However, these monsters quickly died because the two intelligent robots did not wait for them to approach. They suddenly raised their palms and fired a few lasers at them, cutting them all into slices.

‘These monsters don’t seem to be as strong as the monsters-turned humans.’

Zhou Chen noticed this characteristic. Monsters formed from mutations of natives seemed to be stronger than monsters transformed from wild beasts.

After a while, the four of them entered the city ruins and began to walk carefully on the desolate street.

“Be careful not to make too much noise. There are many powerful mutated monsters in this area. It will be very dangerous to attract their attention, and it will be a waste of time,” Teresa reminded Zhou Chen.

“Powerful monsters?” Zhou Chen was interested.

‘I want to see them.’

It had been a while since he had obtained a new passive skill because he had not hunted powerful monsters. Now that he knew that such an existence existed, how could he not be tempted?

Whoosh

Just as Zhou Chen was looking for a powerful monster, a strange bird suddenly flew out of a tall building. It was disgusting and ugly, and its entire body was swollen and covered in warts. However, its flying speed was surprisingly fast. It opened its claws and flew towards the four of them.

The two robots immediately fired laser beams. One of them hit the target, but the bird did not die. The ugly mutated bird flapped its wings and charged towards Teresa.

Teresa was calm. She did not make any obvious movements, but the mutated bird that was approaching her flew back for a distance. It was fixed in the air and began to struggle desperately.

The robots immediately used their lasers to attack it, but the mutated bird was very tenacious and did not die even after being pierced by the lasers.

“Let me do it.”

Zhou Chen knew that it was time for him to attack. Seeing that the mutated bird was not far from him, he directly punched the bird in the air. The surging Eight Desolates True Energy instantly hit the bird, shattering its body like a porcelain plate and killing it on the spot.

“Your superpower is really simple and violent. But next time, try not to make a big commotion when attacking,” a trace of praise flashed across Teresa’s eyes when she saw Zhou Chen instakill the mutant bird, but she still reminded him.

“I’ll try.”

Zhou Chen already had a basic understanding of the strength of the monsters in this world and knew how to use the Eight Desolates True Energy to kill them. However, it would be a little troublesome if he had to pay attention to making less commotion as well. He needed to grasp the Eight Desolates True Energy more finely to accomplish that.

The attack of this mutated bird was only the prelude. Over the following period, even though Zhou Chen and the rest were as careful as possible, they were still discovered by a few monsters and attacked.

Among the attacking monsters, two were humanoid monsters. They ran very quickly and had very tenacious vitality. The two robots were originally prepared to deal with them with bombs, but since Zhou Chen was there, they were handed to him.

There were five monsters that looked like wild dogs. Their vitality was not very strong, and they were killed by the robots after being suppressed by Teresa with her superpower.

There was also a monster that was the most special and troublesome to deal with. Its appearance was like the combination of a machine and flesh. According to Teresa’s speculation, it should have been formed from some machines that had been contaminated by the apocalyptic pollution for a long time.

The influence of the apocalyptic pollution on living things was the strongest, but it was not only limited to living things. Some non-living things, such as stones, books, or machines, might mutate due to its influence and become special monsters. The probability of this happening was very low, but because such monsters would still appear from time to time in the pollution areas.

“This thing is really tanky.”

At this moment, Zhou Chen was fighting against the mechanical monster. It looked like a truck that had grown limbs made of flesh and blood. It could endure Zhou Chen’s attack very well, even his true energy could not destroy it.

Teresa was about to use explosives to attack it, but Zhou Chen suggested that he would take care of the monster himself and asked her to continue exploring with the two robots.

“Alright, I’ll give you this locator. Come and meet us after you shake it off.” Teresa agreed because they were not here to fight monsters but to find something. It was not wise for all of them to stay here.

‘Shake it off? Hehe, my goal is to kill it.’

Zhou Chen thought to himself as he fought this strange mechanical monster head-on.

He suggested staying behind not because he had a good work attitude, but because he simply felt that this monster was strong and might drop a passive skill..
