The Man Standing on Top of the Food Chain - Chapter 31
[Chapter 1 Bus]
At this time, more than a thousand kilometers away from Zhongdu City in the south, among the steep mountains, a small bus was driving hard on the mountain road.
This bus is a privately operated coach. The small bus was so crowded that there was no room left to stand. Even so, every once in a while, the money-grubbing driver would stop the car and recruit a few more customers, causing the passengers in the car to curse.
The bus was filled with various smells, including smelly socks, smelly farts, sweat, food, etc. Staying up there is like staying in a refugee camp. Every second is a torture.
In the last row of the bus, a tall and strong man was sitting in the corner. A black blanket covered most of his face and body, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly.
He is Li Anping. After killing Shang Anguo in Zhongdu City, he broke through the army’s siege. Afterwards, I didn’t see any rumors about that incident in any newspapers, news or even on the Internet. On the contrary, the change of mayor in Zhongdu City was widely reported. He understood that the government had blocked news of the whole thing.
However, he understood that this matter was not over yet. Although his power was already very strong, he was still unable to compete head-on with the power of the country. In this incident, he did not believe that the upper levels of the government would let him off lightly. It was conceivable that a large amount of manpower and material resources had been used to arrest him.
He was not afraid of ordinary policemen, but the legendary Daxia Longque still made him fearful. There are also military weapons. Last time, he was beaten to death with just a powerful sniper rifle. Once a more powerful weapon is deployed, he doesn’t know if he can stop it. You must know that the energy he uses to heal himself is not unlimited.
Therefore, his goal is to become more powerful, powerful enough to influence the entire Daxia and bring justice to everyone.
Reward the good and punish the evil. This is not just a casual talk, Li Anping has always thought so. After taking his revenge, he now has more time to fulfill this dream.
The prerequisite for realizing this dream is to become strong enough.
So if he wants to become stronger now, he must devour more souls, the souls of evil people. He began to think about where the most evil people were.
Li Anping’s first thought was prison, but the supervision there was too strict. He was afraid that he would be discovered by the government just after he ate a few people.
Moreover, the evildoers in prison are all those who have been punished. He targets more people who are at large and cannot be punished by the law.
He thought about it again and again and found that he had lived for more than twenty years. Although he now had super powers, he was really not familiar with things like crime and rape. Most of them know it from movies and TV.
So he left Zhongdu and headed south. The reason why he chose the south was that he subconsciously believed that Tianjing, as the capital of Great Xia, would have a particularly powerful government in the north. On the contrary, the power of the southern part of Daxia has always been inferior to that of the north, and it is relatively weak and impoverished. There will be more poor and weak people here, and they need his help even more.
Before leaving, he sneaked into the Blue Sea Ark many times to look for traces of Wei Shishi, but this woman seemed to have disappeared from the world, and he could not be found anywhere. Li Anping did not have his own intelligence channels, so he could only give up temporarily. Li Anping planned to seek revenge from her after he became stronger and no longer feared the power of the government.
So after Li Anping left Zhongdu City, he headed south. He met villains on the way, and he killed them all and ate them. By the way, I also interrogated information about the underworld and government officials. There are really many gains.
As he imagined, the government was much weaker in the South than in the North. There are many underworlds here, and there are more corrupt officials. You can see all kinds of evil spirits and monsters. Li Anping has eaten the souls of more than 80 people in the past month or so. It’s a pity that his current physical fitness is too strong, and the food he eats along the way is just ordinary people, which does little to improve him, but it saves more than 40 people’s energy that can be used for regeneration.
According to Hei, if he wants to improve now, if he only relies on eating ordinary people, it will probably take more than a thousand people to improve his physical fitness by more than 0.1.
So Li Anping still saved most of his energy, but he used it very quickly because Li Anping used it to assist his practice.
After knowing that it was difficult to increase his strength by eating ordinary people, he performed various life-threatening self-mutilation practices one by one. Li Anping spent most of his training time traveling in mountains and jungles, conducting various strength, speed, flexibility, dodge, and reaction training, crazily squeezing his physical potential.
Ever since he gained the ability, his body has been endowed with the potential for infinite evolution. Even if he does not devour humans, he can still become stronger through continuous practice.
Moreover, he has a body that is not afraid of injury or death, and his physical progress is astonishing. Compared with ordinary people, it is really a world of difference.
His physical fitness is now 3.2 for strength, 2.1 for speed, and 4.0 for stamina. The greater the value of physical fitness, the more difficult it is to improve every 0.1, and the effect of improvement also increases geometrically.
At the same time, he also practiced adaptability during explosive situations. The explosive state consumes one person’s soul, which can temporarily increase his physical quality to strength 4.0, speed 3.0, and the maintenance time is 5 minutes.
However, he has now practiced many times and extended the time to 8 minutes, and has gradually become accustomed to the temporary increase in strength and speed, which has greatly improved his combat power.
He also wanted to improve the effect of the burst state, but every time he wanted to burst out more than one person’s soul energy, the result was that the body could not bear the load and accelerated the collapse. Fortunately, he could heal himself, otherwise he would have died long ago.
While practicing, he also decided on the target to go to. That’s the Pearl of the South called the Emerald City.
That is the southern border land of Daxia. It both belongs to Daxia and does not belong to Daxia. The government’s control is seriously insufficient. The various forces in the city are divided. There are foreign hostile forces, cults, **, international groups, etc. All kinds of black businesses such as smuggling, drug trafficking, and arms can be seen everywhere.
Hell, the place of sin, heaven on earth, the land of lawlessness, whatever it is called illustrates the chaos in the Emerald City. But this suits Li Anping just fine. There he has enough wicked people to eat and righteousness to uphold. The government’s management is weak, and there is simply no place more suitable for him than the Emerald City.
The long-distance bus he took this morning was destined for a small town near Emerald City. Although the environment in the car was very bad, it didn’t matter to Li Anping, who was used to hell-style training.
Sitting next to Li Anping was a young woman, who was holding a baby in her arms. He is a boy who cannot speak and can only call mother, mother. He was very well-behaved and didn’t cry or make trouble along the way.
The woman was not good-looking, but very delicate. She seemed to have returned from working in the city and took her son to visit her parents in the small town.
At first, the woman chatted with Li Anping for a few words, but seeing Li Anping’s cold look, she stopped talking.
Two hours later, as the sun gradually set, the bus stopped at the entrance of a gas station. The passengers all got off the bus one by one, preparing to have dinner.
The woman on the side also stood up with her child in her arms. But seeing Li Anping still sitting there with his head covered, he couldn’t help but remind him: “Brother, get off the car and eat. Although the food here is more expensive, there are still more than four hours of mountain road ahead, and there is no room on the road. It’s time to eat.”
“It’s okay, I’m not hungry.” Li Anping opened the black cloth, revealing a resolute face. With his current physical condition, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t eat for three days and three nights. But once you start eating, it’s no problem to eat at ten or eight tables.
The woman smiled, squinting her eyes together, revealing two dimples. Although they were not pretty, they made her feel very friendly. She smiled and said, “If you’re not hungry now, you’ll be hungry soon. Why don’t you wait in the car and I’ll get you some food.” “No,
I’m really not hungry.” If there was a bad guy in front of him, Li Anping would not do anything. He hesitated and slapped him to death, but he couldn’t do this when facing an enthusiastic person.
“What can you do without eating for such a strong body?” The woman said, “It’s okay, just wait here. I’ll bring some for you after I finish eating.”
Li Anping looked at the woman getting out of the car and suddenly laughed.
‘What’s so funny? If she knew how many people you killed, she wouldn’t be able to give you food before it was too late to call the police. ‘
‘Hei, you don’t understand. This kind of human emotion is the most precious thing about human beings. ‘
In the gas station, in addition to the bus Li Anping was sitting on, there were two other buses parked. The passengers were all crowded into a small restaurant for dinner.
This is also Li Anping’s favorite atmosphere in the past month. Although he didn’t know anyone, just seeing this kind of excitement made him feel like he was still a human being, rather than a monster far away from the crowd.
More than ten minutes later, another van drove up from the gas station, and two tall and thick-set men got out of the van, as well as a fat middle-aged woman. As soon as the three got out of the car, they bumped into a short man walking out of the gas station.
The four of them said a few words, and the short man pointed towards the woman holding the child. The four men rushed over aggressively and surrounded the woman.
The middle-aged fat woman was the first to curse angrily: “You stinky girl, you just had a few words with me, but why did you run away with your grandson? It’s too shameful.”
The woman had just prepared the meal and was leaving the restaurant. When she walked out of the door, she was suddenly surrounded by four people. She subconsciously hugged the child and stepped back: “Who are you? I don’t know you.”
She took a few steps back but bumped into another man, who shouted He said: “Brother and sister, you are serious. You had a few quarrels with my mother, but you secretly ran away with the dog. Do you know how worried we are?” After saying that, he reached out and tried to snatch the child from the woman’s arms. .
The man’s ferocity made the little boy burst into tears. The woman shouted, “I don’t know you,” but was drowned out by the voices of several other people. She pushed and shoved her toward the van outside.
The middle-aged woman shouted at the top of her lungs: “You stinky girl, I just said a few words to you and ran away on your own. I have already called your parents to tell them. Your parents also know now. You can explain to them later.”
Another short man grabbed the woman’s shoulders with both hands and shouted: “Honey, if you have any objections to your mother, don’t take your son out. It’s very dangerous for you to run around alone as a woman. Why don’t you come back with me quickly?” .”
The woman’s cries were suppressed. She just hugged the child tightly, but her body was unstoppably carried by four people into the van.
Things happened so fast. Only a few people in the crowd stood up and wanted to do something, only to find that the van had already driven away.
