As the smooth road conditions outside the window gradually decreased, the convoy began to drive into the wilderness.
In fact, most of the wilderness originally belonged to human activity areas. Occasionally, a fleeting glance would reveal remnants of roadbeds.
However, all the plants in the wilderness show signs of rampant growth. It probably won't be long before the last traces of humanity are completely buried.
Zhang Zhqing drove the vehicle along the designated route.
This route had already been swept in advance by the company's vanguard troops, that is, the resupply points, significantly reducing the probability of encountering fierce beasts.
After all, while driving in the wilderness, the most feared scenario is an attack by fierce beasts.
Under normal circumstances, a transcendent encountering a fierce beast in the wilderness could fight if they could kill it, or evade and run if not.
But it's different for the convoy. Every fierce beast encountered must be killed, otherwise if a heavy-duty truck is destroyed, the trip would be in vain, or even cause losses.
Therefore.
The opening of each route requires a lot of manpower and also has a time-sensitive nature.
The route swept two days ago might very well be reoccupied by fierce beasts, which is why Zhang Zhqing is quite urgent and unwilling to waste time switching to another city gate.
The journey was uneventful.
Zhang Zhqing was quite relaxed, continuously chatting with his coworker in the passenger seat.
"Nowadays, our Ninth District changes every day, who would've imagined this was once a city impacted by a beast tide."
"Yeah, most cities impacted by beast tides either ended in destruction and casualties or couldn't recover, but in our case, most can eat perfect quality beast meat, and even export to other districts."
"We really owe it to Lord Pei Jing."
"Indeed, but I feel everything seems to have started with the appearance of that miracle."
"Oh right, I still remember your wife saying online that the miracle's appearance boosted your husbandly authority for fifteen minutes. How about buying something to replenish yourself now?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhqing instantly fumed: "Don't talk nonsense, I've always been at least half an hour, okay? Online chat is all boasting."
In the back seat, Su Qi had a knowing expression.
So it was Zhang Zhqing's wife saying online that my ability had that function.
Heh, I've met the main character now.
The speed of the vehicle was not slow, just slightly lower compared to a transcendent's full-speed burst, and with no unexpected situations on the route, chatting was the only way to relieve the journey's monotony.
Su Qi and his companions occasionally joined in the conversation, making the atmosphere in the vehicle quite harmonious.
The reason for choosing this mode of travel was because the group intercepting the City Lord's Mansion convoy had a very clear target.
If Su Qi went there alone and quickly, besides directly breaking in, it would be difficult to attract the opponent into splitting their forces, which would be disadvantageous for him to understand the enemy's details.
Since the opponent was so confident, they should have means against Apostle Level individuals.
Before nightfall, they finally arrived at the supply point. After exchanging documents and confirming identities, the supply point troops set off again along the route.
The convoy remained in place to rest.
The two teams advanced alternately day and night, striving to maximize travel efficiency.
Trying to clear the route in advance to avoid encounters with fierce beasts which, as battles often start, caution will inevitably lead to restraints, therefore placing a heavier responsibility on the convoy's security team.
Of course, if they knew there was an Apostle Level transcendent in the security team, they probably wouldn't be this nervous.
No matter which force in the Ninth District.
Who has an Apostle Level transcendent in their escort convoy?
At this moment.
In a mountain nook in the wilderness, various loading trucks were packed crisscross, and the transcendent individuals huddled within trembled, daring not to make any extra movement.
Fearing they'd stand out in the eyes of those aliens.
On a nearby hillside, over thirty non-human aliens gathered, their bodies tall, divine yet demonic, scanning the surroundings constantly from a high vantage point.
Among them was one with extremely broad shoulders, pale golden eyes with slit pupils, a piercing gaze, a tail behind swinging and shattering a rock.
His voice was hoarse, sneering with some dissatisfaction: "I really don't understand what Lord Bishop is thinking, sending us to intercept these worthless things."
Indeed, in the eyes of non-human aliens, perfect-quality beast meat was no different from trash. They mostly evolved by ingesting polluted traits, and the higher the quality of the beast meat, the less useful it was.
"Liang Zuo, have you evolved too quickly and left your brain behind? Lord Bishop made it very clear, this is naturally to lure out the people behind the cleanup company."
Another non-human alien, with a platinum flame pattern between the brows, slender form, and horned protrusions on the forehead and cheeks, replied indifferently, his hand constantly repeating a grasping motion, a wisp of terrifying blaze flickering in his palm.
Liang Zuo's gaze was like a knife, sweeping over, coldly speaking: "An Yuan, aren't you the one without a brain? What good is it for our Evolution Divine Teachings to lure out the people behind the cleanup company, ask them where these trash come from, and then everyone eats them as trash?"
An Yuan glanced at Liang Zuo, his eyes carrying a hint of mockery: "Seems your rationality is indeed about to revert to divinity."
"Use the remaining bit of your brain to think."
"What does such a large amount of perfect-quality beast meat imply?"
"It implies more of those fierce beast waste that others see as trash!"
"If we can convince them to sell that waste to us, wouldn't that mean the Evolution Divine Teachings will enter a rapid development stage?"
"An Yuan is right." At this moment, a female non-human alien covered in black feathers chimed in.
"Our Evolution Divine Teachings' realm improvement is indeed much faster than ordinary transcendent beings."
"But evolving too quickly, with rationality reverting to divinity, makes us act solely on 'instinct', which is very detrimental to the development of our Evolution Divine Teachings, otherwise, why would the courts continuously hunt us."
"Therefore, we need more brothers and sisters to join."
"This way, we can make up for the number at the divine level and do more for the Divine Teachings."
Liang Zuo seemed dismissive: "Hmph, seeing you chasing divinity whole-heartedly yet fearing it, is truly ridiculous."
His eyes radiated craziness: "I have already heard the whispers of the gods, just you wait and see, I will prove to you that rationality is the most useless thing on the path of evolution!"
"The so-called Mysterious Path of humanity disappeared in the river of history, leaving only that pitiful imprint."
"The invasion of the Ten Thousand Realms was because humanity chose rationality, a foolish act of suppressing divinity!"
The female non-human alien shook her head; she knew Liang Zuo belonged to the Radical Faction within the Evolution Divine Teachings. Although she didn't agree with his ideas, she didn't want to argue much at this moment.
"Alright, everyone spread out, keep a closer watch on any movements. I feel that the rescuers from that cleanup company will be arriving soon."
Liang Zuo gave her a cold glance.
Once again, rationality, this sickening rational decision.
With their three non-human aliens comparable to Apostle-level transcendent beings, unless the Ninth District made a large-scale move, anyone coming would be just clowns, was it necessary to be so cautious?
