Chapter 60 - Heading To Tongzhou

Translator: Simple MTL  Editor: Simple MTL

…

Night.

In an abandoned town about 30 kilometers away from Boston, on the roof of a four-story building.

Start a fire.

Roast meat.

Soon, the fragrance of the meat spread out, and then it was sprinkled with cumin powder, black pepper, salt…

Andrew ate in large mouthfuls.

In a short while, he alone ate two pounds of beef.

This cow was a second-grade demon beast, the “Purple-backed bull”. It was evolved and mutated from an old yellow ox during peacetime.

After the originally gentle old yellow ox evolved into the “Purple-backed bull”, it had a nasty temper and had a strong attack power.

Moreover, it was powerful. The odds of winning for an ordinary second-grade martial artist were minimal.

The purple-backed bull was also the most valuable demon beast among second-grade demon beasts.

Its meat was delicious, and it had a high price but couldn’t be bought in the big hotels.

Almost all the purple-backed bulls around the city had been killed, but Andrew was able to meet this one here.

He could be considered lucky.

“A purple-backed bull weighs about 1,000 pounds. It’s enough for me to eat for a long time.”

After cleaning the barbecue tools, Andrew put them into his storage space and took out his phone.

There was no signal on the phone.

However, the battery was full.

The phone had the general information about the evil martial artists and seventh-grade demon beasts in the northwest region sent by the Martial Arts Administration and the military.

“This information…”

As Andrew flipped through the information, he suddenly felt like hitting someone.

All the information was generic, conjectures, possibilities, and other words.

None of it was accurate or reliable.

However, after thinking about it, he had to make do with what he had.

Having this information was at least better than having no information at all.

Andrew noticed one point. The northwest regional branch of the Heavenly God Sect was suspected to be near the Great Dong Mountain.

The person in charge of the northwest regional branch, Grandmaster Wuji, was a rank-eight Golden Body Realm martial artist!

“Great Dong Mountain…”

Andrew muttered.

He knew about the place.

Great Dong Mountain was not a mountain but a mountain region.

There were mountains everywhere, and there were many paths between the mountains. It was difficult for people to walk. As early as in peacetime, the officials had moved the residents to the city.

Later, the northwest region began to “plant trees”, and the entire Dong Mountain region was covered with plants.

The ecological environment changed. Before the spiritual energy recovered, wolves, leopards, and other wild animals were discovered here.

When the spiritual energy recovered, Great Dong Mountain became a restricted area in the northwest region!

“It’s said that there are many demon beasts of seventh grade and above in the Great Dong Mountain. There’s even a ninth-grade demon beast…

“Moreover, someone once saw a big tree running wildly in Great Dong Mountain. It was suspected to be a demonic plant…”

Demonic plant.

It was a slightly more mystical description.

In fact, after the plant evolved, it gave birth to sentience.

The probability of a plant evolving and giving birth to sentience was very low. Every demonic plant was precious.

The “Life essence liquid” contained in the demonic plant was the best treasure for martial artists to increase their cultivation, mental strength, and even the strength of their bodies.

If that demonic plant was not in the Great Dong Mountain…

It would have been hacked to death long ago.

As he was thinking, he found a map.

Andrew looked carefully.

“Dong Mountain is 70 kilometers east of Tongzhou, 300 kilometers away from Boston City…”

Andrew was a little depressed.

He should have bought a car.

Previously, considering that he had storage space, there was no need to buy a car to store the harvest.

But now, it seemed that he needed a car for transportation rather than storing the harvest.

An off-road vehicle was very good, just like Chief Charles’s car.

“It’s a bit troublesome to go back to Boston to buy a car now.

“I’ll go to bed first. Tomorrow morning, I’ll head to Tongzhou and see if I can hitch a ride!”

In peacetime.

Boston was a city, and Tongzhou was a small town beside the city.

It was about 200 kilometers away from Boston.

Along with the recovery of the spiritual energy, several terrifying demonic beasts were born in Tongzhou—the black-crowned golden eagle!

The black-crowned golden eagle was ranked among the top eagle-type demonic beasts. It was very powerful and had reached the eighth grade.

However, its most terrifying feature was its speed.

There was once a ninth-grade martial artist who chased after the black-crowned golden eagle, but it relied on its terrifying speed to escape.

The current Tongzhou was already in ruins.

The wind was strong on the roof.

Andrew found a relatively well-preserved room and took out the latex mattress, bedding, pillow, and pajamas that he had prepared earlier.

He was getting ready to sleep.

His spiritual energy was powerful.

Even if he was asleep, he would be able to sense the slightest movement within a hundred-meter radius.

His blade was placed next to his pillow. When he was sleeping, if any danger approached, he would be able to burst forth and kill the enemy.

“This method of sleeping…

“I’m still not used to it!

“In the future, I can set up a formation. When I’m sleeping in the wilderness, I can set up a nine-heavens ten-earths killing formation in the surroundings. Even if it’s a ninth-grade martial artist or an Ultimate expert, they can forget about disturbing my sleep.”

Andrew slept until dawn as he fantasized.

He took out a bottle of mineral water from his storage space, brushed his teeth, and washed his face before tidying up his bedding.

If other martial artists saw this scene…

They would probably be furious.

F*ck. When other people came to the wilderness, someone had to be on duty even when they slept. They were afraid that demon beasts would come and attack them in the middle of the night.

Sometimes, they could not wash their faces even once in half a month.

How could Andrew be so extravagant?

“What a pity!

“I want to wash my hair, but there is no electricity in the wilderness. The hairdryer won’t work…”

Andrew ate a few compressed biscuits for breakfast.

Then, he carried his blade on his back.

He set foot on the road to Tongzhou…

After walking for about thirty miles, a shabby jeep was heading toward Andrew.

Judging from the direction, it should be heading toward Tongzhou.

Andrew stopped the car.

The window rolled down, and there were four warriors sitting in the car.

One of them, a middle-aged warrior with a dirty face, said in surprise, “Little brother, you came to the wilderness alone?”

When he saw Andrew’s youthful appearance, he couldn’t help but berate him, “You’re so young. Why did you come to the wilderness without studying properly? Don’t you know that it’s very dangerous here?”

Andrew was a little speechless.

These people…

Should be from Boston.

Moreover, they shouldn’t have returned to the city recently, so they didn’t know about his deeds.

Andrew slightly let out his imposing manner.

He was roughly at the peak of the third grade.

That middle-aged martial artist was at the late stage of the third grade.

He had an awkward expression on his face as he said with a smile, “So you’re an expert… little brother looks so young, but your strength is so tyrannical. Could it be that… you have a babyface?

“Actually, your age is about the same as mine, right?”

…

A babyface?

Andrew was convinced. This was the first time someone had said that he had a babyface.

He was too lazy to argue, though, “Friend, are you selling your car? I need to go to Tongzhou. It’s quite far.”

“To Tongzhou?”

The middle-aged warrior shook his head and smiled bitterly. “Little brother, don’t go to Tongzhou. Over there… all the monsters ran away in one night. We just came from there.”

“What’s the situation?”
