"Zhizhi!"

After being praised by Zhang Che, the Gluttony Monkey showed off his archery skills for a little more before looking at Zhang Che pitifully, making gestures of eating with his hands and chewing a few times with his mouth.

Okay, this fellow was asking for a prize now.

Zhang Che slapped his forehead speechlessly. -Forget it. I take back my thoughts from before. This fellow's talent tree was definitely right; he is a glutton through and through.-

"But aren't you absorbing the rainbow fog energy all the time already? Is there any meaning in you still craving food?" Zhang Che tapped his finger on the Gluttony Monkey's head before sending him back into his spiritual sea. He left the archery practice arena, heading to the nearby supermarket.

He still had no idea what this fellow's preferences were like. When he ate his meals previously, the Gluttony Monkey didn't show any desire for food. Obviously, he wasn't into rice.

"Hmm, I suppose this fellow prefers fruit and the like."

It wasn't hard to deduce this. Wasn't it specified in the frisky monkey's attributes? Since he excelled in finding all kinds of fruits, he was sure to like eating those.

Unsurprisingly, when Zhang Che entered the supermarket and came to the fruits section, the bronze light in his spiritual sea that represented the Gluttony Monkey immediately stirred restlessly, his appet.i.te obviously aroused by the various kinds of fruit here.

When Zhang Che exited the supermarket, he was carrying several bags in his hands, filled with all kind of seasonal fruits. These bags sank in his hands, weighing nearly fifteen kilograms.

As he was unsure whether he had successfully escaped from the Tian Yin Squad's pursuit, Zhang Che had no intentions of returning home. Instead, he found a hotel and stayed there. He planned to set off for the neighboring Ci Zhou tomorrow to buy a super strong bow, equipping the Gluttony Monkey as a long range sniper c.u.m support fire!

Water sounds splashed in the washroom. Zhang Che was currently enjoying a relaxing shower. In the room outside, the Gluttony Monkey jumped into the middle of the pile of fruits excitedly, using both his hands and started eating happily.

By the time Zhang Che came out from his shower, the pile of fruits was reduced to a mess of skins and seeds all over the floor.

"d.a.m.n it, I forgot to tell this guy to throw the waste into the trash can."

Zhang Che slapped his forehead helplessly. He could only fetch the broom and mop with a bitter smile and start cleaning up.

Zhang Che woke up early the next morning and rushed over to the Qian Wei City Airport, taking a pa.s.senger plane headed to Ci Zhou City.

As there were still large numbers of flying beasts in the wild, the current generation of pa.s.senger planes were equipped with weapon systems, and the number of pa.s.sengers it could take was not high.

Other than the flight and combat staff, this pa.s.senger plane Zhang Che was taking could only transport about fifty people. The ticket price was so frighteningly high that commoners would flinch at the thought of it, costing fifteen million Alliance dollars.

Other than beastmasters, only the rich were able to enjoy such transportation tools.

After boarding the plane, Zhang Che didn't chance upon any beauties. His seat was by the window, with a cold-looking middle-aged man seated next to him. His poker face looked like others owed him five million dollars or something, with a vibe that felt detached from the world.

After taxiing a certain distance, the plane successfully took off into skies, and soon pierced into the clouds, quickly heading in Ci Zhou City's direction.

In both of Zhang Che's lives combined, this was the first time he had ever taken a plane. Thus, he looked out of the window in a novel manner, taking in the scenery outside.

Looking out through the airplane's gla.s.s window, he could see flying beasts of various sizes flying in the distance from time to time. The larger ones had wingspans over twenty meters wide.

"These freaking birds won't be attacking the pa.s.senger plane, will they? I heard that in this generation, the planes will be attacked at least once by flying beasts on average."

It truly was a case of speak of the devil. When the pa.s.senger plane flew above an extended forest, a group of black flying beasts suddenly rose to the skies extremely quickly, chasing after the pa.s.senger plane.

"s.h.i.+t, there really are flying beasts chasing us now. The weapon system on this plane should be able to handle them, right?" Zhang Che looked at the cloud of darkness wide-eyed as it rapidly approached, his heart growing apprehensive.

Only the heavens knew how strong these flying beasts were, and whether they had some sort of unique offensive methods. Wasn't it really dangerous if the weapon system was unable to effectively fend them off?

-Mmm, from the looks of it, it's better to take land transportation whenever possible in the future. I would have a chance of escaping even if I encountered any powerful exotic beasts, wouldn't I?-

It wasn't only Zhang Che; many other pa.s.sengers also discovered the pursuing flying beasts outside the windows. The crowd instantly caused a commotion.

Just as some of the pa.s.sengers were getting restless, the sweet voice of a stewardess suddenly rang out from the public address system, a.s.suring everyone. "Please rest a.s.sured, our dear pa.s.sengers. Our plane is equipped with a powerful weapon defense system. It is definitely able to defend against most flying beasts' attacks…"

-That's right; there was hardly any news on airplanes cras.h.i.+ng due to attacks from flying beasts. The flight to Ci Zhou City wasn't considered a long one, either. There shouldn't be any dangers, right?-

The dark ma.s.s of flying beasts closed in rapidly. When the distance between them and the plane was only a few hundred meters, many windows on the plane body suddenly opened, revealing the black mouths of a row of automatic cannons.

In the next moment, low and concentrated cannon-fire rang out. Countless tongues of flames danced around like whips, reaching for the dense ma.s.s of the black cloud.

The sh.e.l.ls struck the black flying beasts' bodies with huge kinetic force behind them, instantly turning the skies in this area into a rain of meat and blood. Black feathers floated down like flower petals, scattering in the chaotic air currents high in the sky.

The pa.s.sengers who saw this through the cabin windows cheered out one after another. None of them felt as uneasy as before.

"If their bodies were torn apart so easily by the automatic cannons, the level and quality of these black flying beasts really isn't anything to talk about. Their speed was probably the only thing to note."

Looking at the black flying beasts being slaughtered outside, Zhang Che thought that if every pa.s.senger plane only met with this level of aerial beasts, there wouldn't be much danger to speak of.

Perhaps Zhang Che's luck was pretty good today, or perhaps it was due to the short flight, they didn't meet any other attacks on this trip.

Unlike Qian Wei City's mountainous terrain, Ci Zhou City was situated on flatlands. Many rivers and lakes could be found nearby. It was originally a famous land of fish and rice known far and wide.

However, after the dawn of the new age, the humans' living area was greatly suppressed by the invading exotic beasts. Now, that endless fertile land had become rich forests and gra.s.slands. Only the area surrounding Ci Zhou City was left with a small fraction of farm lands.

As Ci Zhou City's terrain was too flat, in order to effectively defend against the beast hordes, countless defensive constructions were built around the perimeter of Ci Zhou City. Looking down at it from the sky, it was like an eight trigram formation was placed around it, dazzling anyone who saw it.

However, Zhang Che wasn't concerned with any of that. His only goal here was to buy a super strong bow!
