  Theon nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well done!"

  He once again pointed to his own thigh and asked Pera to sit over there.

  Pera was no longer polite, her full butt just like that landed on Theon's thigh. Then, he extended his sharp tongue into Theon's mouth, frantically begging for it. Theon could feel that Pera's body was ignited in flames. After using the intelligence brain s to set the office's door to a sealed state, Theon reached into Pera's collar with one hand and probed around the towering mountain peaks.

  The more the snake girl's body became hot, the more her body began to twist. She simply stood up and then sat on his mount while facing Theon. Pera opened up the zipper on her leather clothes, revealing her white body, but she actually wasn't wearing any underwear.

  Then, she held Theon's head and buried it deep between her twin peaks.

  The blazing flames of the two finally broke out, and under the bright artificial lighting outside the office, the two figures engaged in the most intense confrontation.

  Two hours later, Pera finished putting on his clothes as if he still wanted to, and then helped Theon tidy up his appearance.

  Theon caressed Pera's exquisite face. Only within Pera's body, would he be able to feel the burn of life.

  "What are we going to do next, boss?"

  Even though Theon had already become a person in charge of Remot, he still addressed him with the same tone. Theon did not mind, it was a privilege that Pera deserved.

  "There's no need to do anything, my dear Pera." Theon revealed a wise and farsighted smile: "All we need to do is wait."

  "Wait?"

  "That's right. Once Zero leaves the Death Ridge, that will be the beginning of our next move. But before that, all we have to do is watch quietly. "

  Pera did not understand half of what he meant, but she had never questioned Theon's judgement. All she had to do was complete all of the missions that Theon had assigned to her, and complete all of her duties as his woman.

  Theon knew that success was for those who were prepared, and even more so for those who were patient. As for him, he had never lacked patience, and he had even more so prepared himself.

  Everything, was waiting for the moment Ling Yun made it out of the Death Ridge!

  Theon was waiting, along with Taelice and Moni. The only difference was that they were waiting for Zero to wake up.

  Zero had been unconscious ever since he ran out of the canyon last night, and by the morning, he was already suffering from a high fever. Taelice checked his body and found that the wounds that had healed before zero were all broken again. Adding to that, last night, when he was about to leave the valley, he was swept by the poisonous fire that contained a special radiation which caused the muscles around the edges of the zero wounds to become necrotic.

  Although Taelice had helped him clean up part of the dead muscles before, this process had not stopped yet. Taelice knew from the prophet Gunter that this was the sign of a gene collapsing. Because the gene that was about to collapse could no longer repair his body, the deterioration of the zero injury could no longer be controlled. If this continued, then in less than 24 hours, Zero would die from the gene's complete collapse!

  As matters stood, Taelice only knew of a method that could save Zero's life.

  It was a method passed down through the ages in the Semitic — — Man eating man!

  Chapter 140 - Persistence

  In fact, it was not just the Shinzhe. Other aboriginal tribes that lived in the Death Ridge also had ancient methods of passing down. When strong warriors in the clan encountered an incurable injury, the clan's witch doctors would ask the elderly people to contribute their blood and flesh to the injured warriors. In the Witch Doctor's words, it was a chance for a warrior to be reborn after receiving the blessing of his ancestors from the flesh and blood of his compatriots.

  However, this method was not one to test one's luck. On the contrary, the success rate was extremely low. But there was always a man or two who escaped from the clutches of death because of this ancient method, and so it was always passed on.

  And under Gunter's guidance, Taelice knew that this actually had nothing to do with the tribe's ancestors. It was simply healing itself through the cells, genes, and even fibers in its own flesh and blood. During turbulent times, even the genes of normal people were different from those of the old era. Their cells were more active, and under the guidance of a strong will to survive, it was not impossible for them to swallow the same kind of cells and genes to repair themselves.

  At least, metamorph in the wilderness often used this method. They could even be used to evolve themselves.

  However, even if they were of the same species. Not to mention cells or genes, even the most basic blood would produce rejection. Thus, out of every hundred people that used this method, only three would be able to survive.

  However, if the target was an Adept, then the success rate would be greatly increased. The more powerful an Adept was, the more aggressive their cell structure would be. This was the basic guarantee that allowed them to survive in troubled times, and the more they lived, the better it would be. To them, the blood and flesh of metamorph could even help them heal their injuries, much less their own kind.

  The only difference was that if they used the metamorph's flesh to repair themselves, they would be affected by different metamorph's genes and thus form different mutated tissues.

  Now, he was unconscious, and his injuries were on the verge of worsening. If even Adepts couldn't keep their wounds down, then healing them would require advanced medicine and technology. But in the Death Ridge, there was no such thing, so Taelice only thought of this method.

  black girl suddenly took out a military dagger from the side of Zero's leg. This action of his gave Moni a fright.

  "What do you want?" Moni thought that Taelice wanted to aim for zero, so the girl raised her gun and pointed it at Taelice.

  Her worries were not excessive. During the dark time in Angry Reef City, Moni had seen many people who did not have any value being executed in secret by their own people. All of this was just to save as much resources as possible.

  Taelice did not even look at Moni's spear, she said: "Don't point the gun at me, I was just trying to save him."

  black girl quickly told him the method he knew and then started to feel around his calves. However, Taelice planned to use her own flesh to feed it to. Moni saw that she was not joking. When Taelice suddenly raised her dagger, Moni rushed forward and grabbed him with her hand.

  "What are you doing?" Taelice said impatiently. did not have a good impression of Ling'er since she was an outsider. But first of all, Zero had saved her, and secondly, she had to rely on Zero to find and kill the person who had destroyed the village. That was why she wanted to do this.

  Moni shook her head: "If this method could save zero, then … Use mine! "

  Taelice was slightly surprised. Fear and hesitation interweaved on her small face, but in the end, it was replaced by resolution.

  "Are you joking?" Taelice asked.

  Moni took the dagger from her hand and said softly, "I am serious. You don't know what kind of world I used to live in. It was zero that pulled me out of that world. I always wanted to repay him for something, but he always refused. It's good that he can't say no now. "

  Taelice never thought that the Moni who looked so young would speak with a tone as mature as an adult.

  "Can I just use the meat here?" Moni pulled up his pants, revealing her calves.

  "Actually, you don't have to …"

  "No!" Moni interrupted Taelice and said firmly: "I have always been dragging a burden on Zero, now I can finally do something for him. This is my price! Besides, you still want to take revenge, don't you? So let me do the best I can! "

  Moni raised her dagger and was about to stab downwards. But Taelice pressed her hand down, and black girl said softly: "Let me do it, this way you can experience less of this suffering."

 
After a while, Moni's suppressed cries of pain sounded across the small wetlands.

  Just as the setting sun was about to sink into the horizon, the dense radiation cloud split open a zigzag hole, as if it had been slashed by the sharp swords of a god, causing blood-red sunlight to pour down.

  The desperate red light made Zero's eyes hurt. When he moved his fingers, the usual instant signal seemed to have come from far away. After almost a second, it was finally received by the brain of zero.

  For zeros, one second was a long time.

  Slowly, like a rusty machine, he opened his eyes.

  Zero could feel that the wound on his back had already healed. Furthermore, using [Rampage] when he was close to the end of his stamina depleted almost all of the energy in his cells. Before he fell into a coma, he could faintly feel that his genes were on the verge of collapsing. But now, his genes had stabilized, and there was an additional mysterious life force in his body.

  It was this vitality that had stabilized the gene that was on the verge of collapse.

  He pressed his hands to the ground and propped himself up from the sand.

  Behind Zero was the exit of the Death Canyon, and below him was a slope. Not far away, he saw Lamassen River, whose face was dyed red by the setting sun.

  From here, the straight line should be about two thousand meters away. However, if he were to calculate that he would be able to go downhill through a lush forest and reach the bottom along the riverbank, the distance would not be less than 100 kilometers.

  "You're awake?"

  Taelice's voice came out, and Zero looked towards the direction of the voice. black girl had brought a small beast back. She threw the animal to the ground and saw that it was a mutated rabbit. Taelice skillfully dismembered and skinned the big rabbit using the dagger she got from Zero. However, there was a hint of fear in the way she occasionally looked at Zero.

  black girl had no way of forgetting how terrifying it was when Zero ate the piece of meat that had been cut off from Moni's leg.

  The unconscious Zero, upon touching the blood on the flesh, trembled slightly. Then, Zero opened his eyes, but Taelice could swear that those were not human eyes. Most of them seemed to be the eyes of a beast.

  In fact, Zero ate the bloody piece of meat into his stomach in a nearly animal way. It was only until he finally swallowed his throat without wasting a single bit of meat, that Zero finally fainted. However, Taelice would never forget the terrifying manner in which the muscle fiber seemed to move around as if they were alive.

  Fortunately Moni had fainted before this. Otherwise, she would have been completely terrified.

  Chapter 141 - Ambushing

  After seeing Taelice, Zero also saw Moni. Only, Moni seemed to be injured. She laid flat on the sand with her left leg still wrapped in bandages. There was a faint blush spreading across the pure-white bandage. The small beast pulled right beside Moni, and gently nuzzled against Moni's body with its own.

  Perhaps because it was too dry, Zero licked his lips. Then his expression changed, and a faint smell of rust came from his lips. He knew very well that it was blood, and human blood at that. Then, as if something had remained in his mouth, he stirred it with his tongue, and the tip of his tongue touched a piece of meat. It was just a simple touch, but a large amount of data flowed into Zero's mind. Just like blood, he knew that this meat came from the tissues of the human body.

  Then, he looked fiercely at Moni's injured left leg. Zero seemed to have realized something.

  Far away, Taelice could clearly feel the high temperature emitting from Zero's body. The scorching stream of air even wrapped around him as he revolved slightly, causing his jet black hair to flutter gently.

  And at this moment, there was not even a trace of wind in Death Ridge.

  Only after a long while did the airflow and the heat wave disappear. Su Yun silently walked to Moni's side and sat down. She glanced at once, then flapped her fat wings and flew to Su Ming's shoulder.

  Su Ling laid down her body and brought herself closer to Moni's face. He leaned into Moni's ear and lightly moved her lips.

  No one knew what he said.

  At night, Moni woke up. His face, which was pale because of the blood loss, had gained a hint of a blood-red within Taelice's bonfire. And after eating the mutated rabbit meat that Taelice had roasted before, Moni's face started to reveal a smile.

  Seemingly having some strength, Moni began to talk. Sometimes she praised Taelice's culinary skills, and sometimes she even praised one or two poor jokes that she heard from the drinkers in Angry Reef City. Zero would say a few words occasionally, but most of the time, he was as quiet as Taelice.

  After finishing off a piece of breast meat, Zero indicated that he had eaten his fill. There seemed to be some sort of tacit understanding between the three of them. No one mentioned anything about Zero and Moni's injuries, as though they were wounds that they did not want to touch. Although this wound would eventually form a scar, it would never disappear.

  "After resting for 10 minutes, let's hurry on our way. We've already lost too much time, we have to hurry up." Zero said.

  Taelice said quietly: "I have no problems, but you two?"

  "I've almost recovered. Even if I were to fight someone now, it would not be a problem." Zero was very clear about his body, and he would not force himself to do anything beyond his limits unless it was absolutely necessary. Moreover, he still had some time to rest after reaching the downstream areas. He could completely adjust his condition to his peak state before the appearance of the Parkland's killer.

  Moni also raised her hand: "I don't have any problems, but I might need a walking stick."

  Taelice didn't even raise her head as she replied, "No need, I'll carry you on my back then. It'll be faster this way."

  Therefore, this matter was decided. After eating and drinking to his heart's content, the leftover rabbit meat was carefully preserved by Atasa. This kind of herbivorous metamorph was rarely seen, even Taelice who had grown up in the Death Ridge didn't see many of them in a year. The meat of the herbivores was delicious and was a rare delicacy. Taelice naturally did not waste any time. Although there were a lot of metamorph on Death Ridge, they were edible and straight. The leftover rabbit meat, if eaten sparingly, would last for around two days.

  After packing up and cleaning up the traces of the bonfire, the three of them set off on their journey.

  Due to the fact that they were already close to the Lamassen River, the soil here was already rather moist. That was because the roots of the various plants hidden deep in the ground were shrinking in complex patterns, constantly asking the Lamassen River for water. When the plant absorbs enough water, the excess is discharged, so the water makes the originally dry ground slightly wet.

  The three of them walked through the wetland and directly entered the forest at the foot of the mountain before arriving at the river. But they did not dare approach it too closely. There was no extra cover on the beach, only a few occasional bushes on the edge of the unstable riverbed. In fact, the vicinity of Lamassen River was not suitable for plants to grow. Giant Tooth Fish would use these plants to sharpen their teeth, and the trident jaw would rub their huge bodies onto the plants to grind away the dirt on their bodies. The metamorph in Lamassen River made the mutated plants back off, let alone those normal trees.

  As a result, within ten metres of Lamassen River, there was not a single decent plant to be seen. On the other hand, when Giant Tooth Fish leapt out of the water in groups, the triangular chin would occasionally fight with each other in the water.

  By the time it was around midnight, they had already reached the downstream area. The river in this area was over a thousand meters wide, and the sound of the rushing river from the upper reaches of the river was loud as it came crashing down on the high, sharp reefs.

  Downstream, the flow of the river was very fast. From time to time, waves that were more than ten meters high would shoot up into the sky, wetting th
e sand within a hundred meters of the river bank.

  Up to this point, there was no longer any metamorph there, and neither the Giant Tooth Fish nor the horned alligator would be able to approach this stretch of water. Further ahead was a large crevice that stretched across the Death Ridge. When they reached there, the Lamassen River's water flowed down like a waterfall. After flowing for a thousand meters into the bottomless abyss, they would then pass through the underground river and enter the endless polluted ocean region outside the coastline.

  The reason why he chose this place as his sniping spot wasn't without reason. Firstly, the geographical location was extremely complicated, so not to mention the vast forest behind the river, even the chaotic and large rocks that were moving more than ten meters were used as a natural cover. Secondly, the continuous impact of the water waves would cause loud noises in the entire area, disturbing the judgement of the Parkland's killer, and also provide an excellent cover for the zero sniping.

  His plan was very simple. First, he would let Taelice ambush him in a corner and fight him when the killer appeared. As for himself, he would choose a vantage point and wait for an opportunity to kill him. This was how assassins use zeros in the Phoenix City. Using the Fighting Domain's ability to wrap themselves around their prey, and then use the sniper sniper segment to find a chance to kill their prey in one shot. (TL: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!))))))))).

  This method was not suitable for dealing with prey that were plural or higher. However, if the opponent was alone, then it would often have miraculous effects. Especially since the other party did not know that there was still Taelice to assist, the chances of success were extremely high.

  However, what made the few of them surprised was that the killer from Parkland did not appear within their expectations. It wasn't until the sun had set on the second day of Zero's arrival that Taelice finally saw a wooden raft that was practically torn into pieces floating over from afar of the Lamassen River. It was also under the control of a man on the wooden raft, and was moving towards the riverbank.
