Login Rewards at a Post Apocalyptic World - Chapter 40

The frozen air made it difficult for everyone to breathe. This area was thousands of miles wide, and all the creatures in this area seemed to be in a vacuum environment. The air around them became thick and stubborn, it was not something that their breathing system could shake.

Fortunately, this time was only one or two seconds, but the creatures within this area of thousands of miles seemed to have lived for one or two centuries.

“D*mn it, I thought only the Northern Federation had high-level mutated beasts. It seems that I have to continue to break through. Humans… lucky humans, you always have the advantage in evolution…”

Whispers came from the dark cave. Soon, the voices were so low that they could not be heard. Finally, the ancient silence was restored.

At the same time, in the large cities that had been destroyed for almost a hundred years in the wilderness, countless zombies turned to look in the direction of Liberty Town. Their imaginations lit up one by one with a weak fluorescent light, and then dimmed again.

A wave of strange undulations swept through the zombie crowd. Soon, they began to work like an ant colony, with a clear division of labor and astonishing efficiency.

At the outermost edge of Bick’s soaring aura, a thin, small, ET-like blue humanoid monster used a language that was far beyond human comprehension to communicate with a few green, robust humanoid creatures that were over three meters tall. Soon, the green creatures moved in groups toward the direction of Liberty Town.

Bick had just borrowed his aura, so he could not control the range of their influence very well. However, he soon used it with ease.

It was as if he was controlling his own breathing system to breathe. It was the kind of breathing that would not be affected even if he fell into a coma or lost consciousness. It was as if it was an innate instinct.

Like the ebbing tide of the ocean, the overwhelming and astonishing aura was all retracted back into Bick’s body. The people on the high wall immediately gasped for breath.

Even if all of this happened within a few seconds, they seemed to have been imprisoned for a long time. Torrential sweat dripped down, and the oxygen was greedily sucked into their lungs.

“Master’s master is actually so powerful?” Albert and the other two exchanged glances. They were terrified and panicked, and then they felt extremely fortunate and even honored.

Following such a powerful leader was the guarantee of survival in the wasteland. Moreover, it was a better chance of survival. Wealth, status, and power were definitely a future that could be hoped for.

Those who were dissatisfied with Bick’s sudden step out to seize power and even kill a member of Parliament were all trembling at this moment. They felt as if they had escaped with their lives.

Especially the other five members of Parliament. Since they were pleased to have asked another member of Parliament to object, Bick had shot that poor fellow in the mouth.

Fortunately, they were one step too late. Otherwise, their deaths would have been in vain. How could such a powerful lord appear in a place like the wilderness?

What followed was jealousy towards Albert. He had actually joined this lord long ago. When that reckless level one mutant beast was killed, Albert, who had woken up lucky, would definitely receive more gifts, right?

When the aura swept in all directions just now, Bick had already vaguely felt those strange locations. However, this was the first time he used this “Dracula’s gift” that Emily called it. He was still not very familiar with it.

He could not accurately determine the source of those strange locations.

However, Bick had already memorized those locations in his mind. A deep underground cave, a once prosperous city center, a primitive village…

“It seems that this world is more interesting than I imagined. When I get rid of this butcher, I will definitely go and take a look…” Bick decided in his heart, and then he condensed that shocking aura, compressing them into a ray as thick as a goose egg.

Of course, he wanted to continue condensing them, but he couldn’t do it no matter how hard he tried.

After all, this was a vast aura that could sweep across thousands of miles. Moreover, within this range, it could maintain its suppression on all living creatures. One could imagine how difficult it was to condense it.

To be able to compress it into a ray as thick as a goose egg was already beyond Bick’s initial expectations.

When it was about to exceed Bick’s control limit, he unreservedly aimed the ray of aura as thick as a goose egg straight at the level one mutated beast, butcher, which was moving aimlessly a few thousand yards away.

The butcher was like an enlarged Michelin tyre man who had just successfully mutated. He had gone from an ordinary beast-level creature that only knew how to eat to increase fat in order to become a mutated beast that had a certain level of intelligence.

The desire to kill filled its mind, making it instinctively look for more prey. However, when it was a few thousand yards away from Liberty Town, its instinct made it feel the danger. It was as if there was a small town that it treated as a canteen not far away. There was a natural enemy waiting for it to come.

Just as the butcher was hesitating whether or not to escape first, a terrifying killing intent that froze its soul pierced through its tough skin, which it was proud of, and directly rushed into its mind.

“Awoo!” The butcher let out a wail. Its huge body, which was more than ten meters tall, turned around and fled.

“Huff… huff…” Bic panted heavily, feeling as if its entire body was about to be hollowed out.

The emptiness that came from the soul was far more unbearable than being physically hollowed out.

“D*mn it, this move consumes so much energy, but it can only make the opponent’s soul tremble for a few hours?” Bick smacked his lips and ridiculed in his heart.

To put it bluntly, Dracula’s gift was a skill similar to the “fear magic” in the game that Bick played before he transmigrated. It was a “support magic” that could make the intimidated enemy temporarily run away and not dare to fight.

The effect depended on the strength of Bick’s soul compared to the opponent’s. With the level one mutated beast’s greed for further evolution, or to be more precise, a few hours was more than enough for them to covet the flesh and blood of the tens of thousands of survivors in Liberty Town.

“Fortify the fortifications and distribute all the weapons. Get everyone ready to fight with their lives.” Bick caught his breath and immediately began to instruct Albert.

The other members of Parliament immediately began to act upon hearing that. They were even more active than Albert, the real blood slave. They all wanted to perform well in front of Bick, the human-shaped mutated beast.

Such a powerful person with astonishing financial resources. What’s more to wait if they did not seek refuge now?

“Master’s master… alright, Mr. William.” Albert was reminded by Bick’s gaze and hurriedly changed his address. “Why don’t we let the old, the weak, and the disabled evacuate first?”

He was not stupid enough to ask why the butcher was still preparing for battle after being chased away.

After all, the wasteland world had been open for a hundred years. Everyone knew how difficult it was to deal with mutated beasts.
