143 Episode 23: Sweet Herbivore City.

With nothing left to do except admire himself, Feng spread his body on the black-truck, waiting for the time when they will reach Sweet Herbivore city.

Gazing at the skies that have stopped shedding light on the world for the previous two days, he lost himself in the memories of the past. Not his otherwordly past, rather his childhood, the time when he used to wet the bed after watching a horror movie and distress his mother, who will first scold him and then sing a lullaby to comfort him to sleep.

For the first time, Feng Mei became really emotional. Closing his eyes in melancholy, he thought, "Mom, Dad, are you guys still alive?" 

In his heart, he already knew that for a normal human to survive in this world without help is simply impossible. If Feng wasn't here then Arnold and the others would have died days ago. So how hard must it be for his parents to survive? Or are they already... Feng didn't dare to think about the worst possibility. That is death.

By the time he reopened his red eyes, two drops of tears had already graced his cheeks.

Touching his cheeks, he wiped away the two drops of tears. A distant echo of a snow-haired man was remembered, "A man doesn't shed tears due to pain but at the thoughts of his beloved." 

This was once said to him by his wife's senior brother, who is also known as the snow gentleman. At that time, Feng scoffed arrogantly, making fun of the fourth most powerful being in the Eastern immortal Western God star clusters. No matter how many valiant men's he had tortured, all wailed like pigs, their tears forming hundreds of river. Heck, the tears of those men were enough to change a region climate and environment. Even a water drought region would become a flooded region. That's why he scoffed at Snow gentlemen, considering his wisdomful words as bullshit spewed by a drunken man.

Now, these words, their meaning, he finally understand after hundreds of year. 

Sigh~

"Master what happened. Why are you so sad?" Dracula, who is holding a plate in his heart, said after he saw his master covered in a dark gloomy aura.

Feng face became ashen, as he thought, "Oh shit, when did he appeared!" 

Immediately discharging the gloomy aura, he took a pose befitting his status as a master to Dracula. With his Oscar award winning acting, adapting the face of an arrogant young master was just like a walk in the park. Overlooking everything, he calmed his unsettled heart by exhaling a breath hardly.

"But Master, I never asked about why you cried, anyways, Chandni had a cooked a finger licking meal for you. So here you go, Master." Dracula said as he dropped on one knee to place down the plate full of food on the roof.

Before he could do so, Feng snatched the food from his hand. "I said, I didn't cry. It was because of the dust. Gumble." Feng said to Dracula, who was walking away, while stuffing his mouth with the food.

By the time he was finished with the war against the food, the black-trucks had already stopped in their tracks.

They were still on the TCC (ten cities connecting) highway. They stopped because the road infront of them was blocked.

"The road ahead is blocked by cars from all sides, do we leave the black truck or stay inside and force our way through?" Jody said to Feng

"Yeah, Leader what should we do?" Khan, who stood besides Jamie asked him.

Everyone stood besides Feng, awaiting his decision. They had already considered him as their leader, no question asked. Due to Feng showcasing his talents, everyone knew about his capabilities. If Feng decides that stripping naked and walking into a den of zombie is not dangerous then it is not dangerous.

To say the truth, Khan and Jamie wouldn't had dared to return to this God forsaken city if they had a choice. This was their worst nightmare ever. Oh, Jamie was still dressing as a man, as she had taken liking to this popular around the world obsession. Anyway, they wouldn't had dared to return back to this city even if they had ten time more guts than now. They were only going there as both of them had seen the power of Feng through the help of Jody.

Jody was happy as he had unknowingly converted Khan into a frantic believer of Feng occult. He was determined on creating a fanclub for his leader, hence he send an invitation to everyone. Sadly, Jamies and the other took his invitation and tore it apart. Jody was sad, as he didn't manage to make others into a hardcore fan of his leader.

As the right-hand man, it was his life duty to increase the presence of his leader. He had already established a ruse with Dracula, who had to create a online Fan club for Feng under Jody unending pestering.

"Hmm." Messaging his forehead, Feng thought for a while.

In front of him, the road was entirely blocked by cars. The cars of varying size were littered everywhere on the streets as if people abandon them due to mass panic.

"Mei Mei, the walk from here to the Sweet Herbivore City is only ten minutes. It isn't much even if we had to walk on our feet." Jamie said in a teasing manner. Her foxy face smiled.

Feng rolled his eyes at her. At the time of his birth, his family in this world was poor. They lived in a low-key apartment in a shady part of the city. At the time of his birth, a old man came by and told his parent that the newborn child will bring them luck and that soon they will become richer than rich. Hence, his parents named him, Feng Mei, meaning abundant and prosperous. Though if you cut out the Feng part from his name then only Mei is left. Add another Mei on this Mei and you get younger sister. Mei Mei literally meant younger sister. Jamie, who had proably learnt Chinese used this to her advantage to tease the King of Apocalype.

Feng replied, "Gege (older brother) would sound better, Nuna (her in-game name). Anyway, like you said, we will be walking from now on. I don't want to blast open a path and attract needless trouble our way."

Feng had sufficient intelligence to understand that the zombies are attracted towards sound. He was powerful enough to protect himself but the same couldn't be said for the others. For their safety, Feng opted to not invite trouble.

Turning towards Dracula and the others, he said, "Go get whatever is useful. Then we will head out."

Along with his command, the other picked up some stuff and stored it into their backpacks.

Feng and the others had already stepped out of the comfort zone provided by the black-trucks. They were currently inside the boundary of the Sweet Herbivore City.

Yes, they had finally made it to the Sweet Herbivore city after a excruciating three days.

Right now, they were heading towards the city northern-West region, also called sector 4.

Sector 4 is the place where the railway station is located in. The railroad there can be used to bypass the City of Jianghu Cake and directly reach City of Silver. This railroad was a very big project, which costed billions of money. Most of it actually went to bribe city officials and bypass authority and some laws. 

All the robots, who were being used as drivers, were turned off as the purpose of their existence had been nullified. Only Jo was turned on, as he was buffed and could carry a lot of stuff. He was activated to carry the heaviest backpack. Jo naturally obeyed the order of his illegal owner.

Occasionally, he would turn back to glance behind. Naturally, he was missing his female counterpart Beverly, who was never meant to be his from the very start.

Everyone was wearing a backpack, except Feng the kids and Dracula, as they were the main combatants.

In Chandni backpack, the energy necessary for their daily usage was stored. In Arnold backpack, food for his kids and himself was stored. In Jody and Darci backpack, what they needed was stored. Same goes for Khan and Jamie.

Feng and Dracula acted as the vanguard, besides them was Chandni. They moved ahead while others followed behind.
