Xu Jie shook her head, "It’s another group of people, also claiming to be the Law Enforcement Team, saying they’re here to understand the situation."
"Another Law Enforcement Team?" Yi Xiaodong stood up from his chair, revealing a puzzled expression.
Xue Nan, with a square face that looked aged, also walked in from outside and looked at Yi Xiaodong, saying in a deep voice, "Leader, just as you predicted, these people are probably here for the Divine Creatures... for the blood of the Divine Creatures."
They all knew what it meant.
Like a wife cake without a wife inside.
The Law Enforcement Team is not for law enforcement, probably not for dealing with this Divine Creature either, they’re just here to demand the blood of the Divine Creature, just like how police dogs smell the scent, hear the news, know there is a Divine Creature here, and come continuously.
No matter how powerful the Demon King is, it can’t withstand wave after wave of Heroes, there will be a day when it falls.
Just like the Divine Creature in District Thirteen.
Even though Genetic Chains are few, they can always be found in the Mysterious Shop, but there might only be this one Divine Creature; if missed, there’s no more.
The legacy of the Divine Spirit gives mortals a chance to ascend in one step, and no Extraordinary is willing to give up such an opportunity.
Everyone standing at this point would make the same choice, it’s just that many don’t get the chance.
This is only a chance for powerful Extraordinaries; the weak simply have no chance to compete, probably only waiting for death, lamenting their weakness.
This batch of "Law Enforcement Team" people is fewer, only a dozen or so, yet each is so imposing, they are powerful Extraordinaries.
However, the focus of their questions was not on the Divine Creature, but on the previous group of the Law Enforcement Team.
The leader, a bald man with one eye carrying a bamboo basket, looked fierce in his eyes, walked up to Yi Xiaodong, patted his shoulder casually, and asked, "Where did those people go before? What questions did they ask you?"
Yi Xiaodong felt immense pressure, but still, with strong psychological resilience, he did not show the slightest abnormality and said calmly:
"They went northward, seemingly looking for that Divine Creature."
The One-Eyed Bald nodded, quite satisfied with Yi Xiaodong’s attitude, smiled and asked again, "Very good, so where is that Divine Creature now?"
Yi Xiaodong sensed the ill-intentioned gazes of the others, his palms were full of sweat, guessing these people are definitely not Law Enforcers, but some maniacs who disregard Order in the apocalypse, maybe they’ll wipe them out if they’re unhappy, so he had to ensure they had no dissatisfaction, honestly stating:
"That Divine Creature destroyed a settlement not long ago, and now it’s probably still in that area."
"We have maps here, maps of this area. You can refer to the map to find it; the Divine Creature is large in size, and it’s easy to spot once you get close."
"Xue Nan, bring the map over."
The One-Eyed Bald took the map, where the location of the Divine Creature had already been marked, nodded in satisfaction:
"You’re doing quite well, although a bit polluted, surviving shouldn’t be a problem."
"Here’s a warning, people like you should stay away from those Law Enforcers, you never know when they might slaughter you all."
"Haha."
He laughed, and the others followed suit, that was a laughter directed at pitiable people, also considered a mercy from the Superior to the Inferior.
They were just maniacs, not monsters; they still retained humanity and compassion, sometimes perhaps more benevolent than those Law Enforcers.
It’s just that the others follow the rules, while they go against them; in the apocalypse, there’s no need to follow others’ rules, just having their own is enough.
Soon, these Law Enforcers left, only coming to inquire, with different inquiry targets.
They were still safe.
The entire settlement was permeated with a peculiar atmosphere, everyone realized something was off, whether it was these Law Enforcers or that Divine Creature.
With a grave expression, Xu Jie said, "They have already seen that Divine Creature as prey, is this how District Thirteen was destroyed?"
"Probably." Yi Xiaodong leaned back in his chair again, looking up at the ceiling, just feeling powerless, unable to change anything, only watching helplessly, let alone dealing with other things, even ensuring their own survival was a difficult task,
"Let’s all be mentally prepared, the pollution here may erupt vigorously at any time, we need to leave here, head to the edge of the area, stay as far away as possible, so that when pollution breaks out, survival is possible."
"District Thirteen had survivors too, they were at the farthest position from the center of the pollution outbreak at the time, hence they survived."
Xue Nan, previously very dissatisfied with Yi Xiaodong being the leader, after all these events, completely believed Yi Xiaodong was a competent leader, at least for this settlement, said loudly:
"I trust the leader, unconditionally obey your orders, you say go, we go."
The others had no objections either, at this point, they just needed someone to speak up.
They abandoned the newly established settlement once again, heading southward, away from this trouble spot, migrating like migratory birds, away from the cold.
Humans are a contradictory species, not unified, making different choices under the same conditions, which often allows the species greater possibility to persist.
After gearing up, they promptly left, knowing they were racing against time, needing to reach the other side of District Two before the destructive pollution erupted.
For some unknown reason, the Zombies outside became more violent, more aggressive, more Extraordinary Creatures roamed this area.
