44: Angela Group (More Updates!)

"Holy crap! It's going to explode!"

The group hurriedly dodged and fired at the small spiders, their formation immediately falling into chaos.

Meanwhile, the Abyss Giant Infant seized the opportunity to stride forward on its fat, short legs and rammed into them violently!

Bang!

A Female Mage team member who couldn't dodge in time was sent flying directly, the sound of her bones shattering clearly audible.

"Grenade strike!"

Barton's eyes were bloodshot as he activated another one of his skills.

Three glowing grenades whistled through the air, hitting the Abyss Giant Infant with precision!

Boom, boom, boom!

The light from the explosion illuminated the passage, and the Giant Infant let out a painful roar, its fat body blown open with several bloody holes.

But the next second, those wounds began to squirm and heal rapidly!

"It won't die! It simply won't die!" A sense of despair began to spread.

Minutes later, only the unsettling chewing sounds of the Abyss Giant Infant remained inside the air-raid shelter.

Along with a few mangled corpses.

Six shimmering boxes lay quietly in the pool of blood.

...

【You have died. Your trial evaluation for this round is locked. Lifespan - 10 years.】

【Teleporting to the waiting room...】

Barton, the Female Mage, and the others appeared once again in that cold, metallic preparation room amidst a flash of white light.

They looked at each other, their Faces filled with humiliation and anger.

"Damn it! That damned mayor! How dare he lie to us!" Barton punched the metal wall.

"And my Flame M4, it was left inside there too. This is fucking hell!"

That gun was Barton's greatest reliance!

"Captain, you guys are out too?" A group from the second team had been waiting for a long time.

This place felt just like the location where guests were sent after being eliminated in "Keep Running".

Subsequently, everyone exchanged information.

Only then did Barton realize they had all been taken out by the young Asian man.

And that young man and his sister possessed unexpectedly terrifying strength.

"What do we do? Do we have to wait for that yellow-skinned brat and his group to come out before this trial can end?" The Female Mage's Face was pale.

"Hmph! They're walking into a dead end! That monster is so strong, it's not something they can deal with!"

"Besides, they dare to provoke our Blackwater Group people; they are truly seeking death!"

Barton said viciously, as if this could help him regain a little Face.

...

In Pikari, as a former employee of a security company in the Far East, Xu Zhengyang could be considered to have a deeper understanding of the Blackwater Group.

Xu Zhengyang said, "Boss, behind this Blackwater Group, there is support from the Angela Conglomerate."

"The Angela Conglomerate?"

Lin Mengzi murmured. She didn't know much about this kind of knowledge.

But she seemed to have some impression of this conglomerate's name.

That's right!

Lin Fei's third sister, Lu Zhifei, seemed to have been taken away by a couple who were executives at this company back in the day.

Lu Zhifei was a Genius girl.

Later, in the Lighthouse Country, for a period of time, she even caused some small news that shocked the academic world.

At the beginning, she would regularly send some money to the orphanage and keep in touch with Lin Fei and Lin Mengzi.

As a result, a news report stated that she had gone missing in an accident at a laboratory.

Since then, there has been no news.

Lin Fei and Lin Mengzi were far away in the Luo Country; although they were anxious, there was nothing they could do.

Xu Zhengyang: "Correct, this Angela Conglomerate is the largest conglomerate in the Lighthouse Country and has military backing."

"I heard from friends in the intelligence department back then that after the Node Tower appeared, their garrison in Africa immediately took control of the Node Towers in many countries."

"They even forcibly confiscated the initial killing coins from those who were selected to become players."

"In some small military dictatorships, they even cooperated with local dictators, using people like livestock, forcing them to continuously enter the first-level Node Tower to perform tasks, earn killing coins, and then turn them over to them."

"The people at the security company previously said this is called human mining."

"Using this method, the killing coins currently controlled by the Angela Conglomerate might be in the trillions, or even more!"

"Whoa, that much!" Lin Fei was also extremely surprised when he heard this.

But upon careful reflection, before the Node Tower appeared.

Wasn't this world just a giant restaurant?

Big countries eat small countries.

Big companies eat small companies.

Big people eat little people!

If you aren't eating at the table, you will end up on the menu.

How could this kind of relationship possibly change because of the appearance of the Node Tower? I'm afraid it will only intensify!

Lin Mengzi: "Good heavens, it's so chaotic over in Africa!"

Lin Fei said: "Over here, the Luo Country is just a small nation. Years of war have left the authorities without enough power to radiate control over all the Node Towers."

"But it probably won't be long before some growing organizations will want to control these places."

Xu Zhengyang also nodded: "That is very possible!"

Finally, the car drove to the Police Station.

At the entrance.

"It's so quiet here." Xu Zhengyang frowned, holding his gun and observing the surroundings vigilantly.

"I can't even see a single zombie; it's a bit abnormal."

Zhou Kai also nodded: "Yeah, there were zombies all along the road, but there are none here."

Lin Fei: "Let's go inside and take a look first."

The door of the Police Station was creaked open by them.

Then everyone went inside.

Very quickly, they found the mayor and his group in the prison holding cells.

"Oh! Thank God! More people have come!" The mayor saw Lin Fei and the others, his Face revealing exaggerated joy.

"Are you guys sent by the Metropolis to rescue us?"

Lin Fei did not answer, just looked at him with a calm gaze.

The mayor seemed to feel a bit uncomfortable being watched, and quickly said: "It's too dangerous outside!

We found a safe route to retreat!

However, our current firepower is completely insufficient.

In the air-raid shelter nearby, there is a Treasure Trove that has been passed down through generations in our town!

If we get it, we can leave this hellhole!"

As he spoke, he handed over a hand-drawn map marking the location of the air-raid shelter.

Lin Fei took the map and glanced at it.

He then compared it with the complete map he had purchased from the System in his mind.

At the location of the air-raid shelter, there was a huge bull-head mark representing a Lord Boss.

【Triggered Quest: Treasure Trove Passed Down Through Generations】

【Quest Objective: Enter the air-raid shelter.】

【Quest Reward: Unknown.】

A curve appeared at the corner of Lin Fei's mouth.

"A Treasure Trove? Sounds good." He put the map away and looked at Lin Mengzi.

Lin Mengzi understood tacitly and smiled: "Since there is a Treasure Trove, we certainly can't miss it."

"Alright, let's go." Lin Fei said.

The mayor looked at the two prison guards beside him, and both of them volunteered to step forward.

"You are new here and aren't familiar with this place, so I will lead the way for you."

"Fine, let's go."
