Chapter 132: Nanxiang, Nothing Happened

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Ming had considered himself a hero.

Even if he had unintentionally become a hero in reality, it was not his intention at all.

He just wanted to live a simple and ordinary life.

And to live such a life, one major principle was to avoid risks.

Therefore, Lu Ming never took risks.

He was even unwilling to go out.

Today, Bai Tianyu and the others set off to explore the Black Mist Zone.

In Lu Mings understanding, this was a huge risk.

But there was nothing he could do about it.

Everyone had to enter the Black Mist Zone sooner or later. Someone had to take this first step to scout the way for the battalion.

Lu Ming would not do such a thing.

However, it did not stop him from admiring those who voluntarily took on such a task.

Standing on the observation tower, Lu Ming looked down from a high vantage point and easily saw the three heavily modified military vehicles and the 15 Awakened ones standing in front of them.

Bai Tianyu (Level 5) was the leader.

Duan Mei (Level 4) and three other Level 4 Awakened.

Then, there were ten Level 3 Awakened with different superpowers, but they were all very outstanding.

These 15 pioneers were bidding farewell to the others at the entrance of Good Hope Village.

Perhaps Lu Mings gaze attracted Bai Tianyu.

Bai Tianyu raised his head and looked towards the observation tower.

He and Lu Ming locked eyes for a moment, and then Bai Tianyu waved his hand forcefully at Lu Ming.

Brother Lu! Were going! Ill leave the family to you!

This Black Mist Exploration Team gathered most of the high-end forces of the official shelter.

Without them, the official Awakened community would lose its focusbut it did not matter. Lu Ming was still around.

As long as Lu Ming was around, this place would have a stabilizing force.

Hearing Bai Tianyus words, Lu Ming thought for a moment, but he did not know what expression to make.

He could only raise his right hand and give Bai Tianyu a thumbs up.

Have a safe trip.

The members of the Black Mist Exploration Team grinned.

The three vehicles drove away with a buzzing sound.

Until they disappeared from Lu Mings sight, he walked down the observation tower and went home for his afternoon nap.

When he woke up, the aftermath of the Black Mist Exploration Teams departure had subsided, and Lu Ming returned to his own rhythm.

In the morning, it was basic fitness training.

In the afternoon, skill training.

In the evening, stance training.

Simple but fulfilling.

Because Lu Ming had always been a simple person.

Furthermore, countless people protected by Lu Ming were giving him various forms of feedback.

At the official shelter.

After Huo Sheng ended his conversation with Lolita, he received news from his subordinates.

The focus of the message was threefold.

First: The whereabouts of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.

This was still unknown.

Back then, Simba and the Mother Trees actions were too secretive, and the officials did not have enough power to monitor them, so the Mother Tree vanished without a trace.

But it did not matter

The confirmed fact was that there were no more human-headed monsters in Nanxiang City.

This might mean that even if the Mother Tee had escaped, it had already left Nanxiang City and headed for the Black Mist Zone.

As for how much trouble the Mother Tree could cause in the Black Mist Zone, it had little to do with this place.

Second: The progress of the Black Mists contraction.

It was already confirmed that the speed of the Black Mists contraction was gradually accelerating, and the time left for them was getting shorter.

At this point, Huo Sheng had already begun to prepare for the relocation.

As for what would happen when they entered the Black Mist Zone and what Huo Shengs plans were

The answer Huo Sheng could give now was to take it one step at a time.

His understanding of the Black Mist Zone was limited to word of mouth.

Once they were inside the Black Mist Zone, he could only adapt and respond according to the situation.

Of course, he also prayed that Bai Tianyu could bring back more useful information.

Thirdly, the black fog had split for the second time.

Just this morning, the officials observed another crack in the Black Mist.

More monsters ran out of the Black Mist Zone.

Mostly Rank 4, with a few Rank 5, and they did not know if there were any Rank 6.

However, after experiencing the matter of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree, Huo Sheng felt that these were all minor issues

Even if the monsters from the Black Mist Zone were awesome, could they be as awesome as Lu Ming?

There was no possibility of that.

Day 121 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Monday

[Nothing happened.]

[The Black Mist Exploration Team had not returned.]

Day 122 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Tuesday.

[Today was uneventful as well.]

Day 123 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Wednesday

[A flock of black birds attacked the gathering place on Guangping Street, and as a result, they became Lu Mings food reserve.]

[There was still no news from the Black Mist Exploration Team.]

Day 124 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Thursday

A Tier 5 zombie walked out of the Black Mist and followed its hunting instincts to arrive in front of the gathering place on Guangping Street.

It was nearly four meters tall and was thinner than a Tier 4 Tank.

Its entire body was covered in a hard cuticle layer. Its hands were black and had already transformed into sickles.

Its intelligence did not seem to be high.

Slightly stronger than a Tank.

After gathering nearly a hundred pitiful underlings, the Tier 5 zombie did not think about why there were so few zombies in Nanxiang. It rushed towards the highest-level Awakened in NanxiangZhang Chengcheng and Wei Lan.

Then, it was smashed into meat paste by Lu Mings iron discus

In short, after experiencing so much, a Tier 5 little brother was no threat to Lu Ming at all.

So, as usual.

Today, nothing happened.

Day 125 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Friday

[Encountered a Tier 5 exotic beast.]

The meat was tender and Lu Ming was very satisfied.

Day 126 of the Apocalypse Calendar

Day 127

Day 128

Day 130

Until Day 133 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Sat.u.r.day.

The morning exercise ended.

In the afternoon, Zhang Chengcheng successfully advanced and became a Level 5 Awakened!

From the beginning to the end, Chengcheng had only consumed a total of three Tier 4 zombie crystals. The quant.i.ty of the other seven crystals was filled with the Basic Breathing Technique.

At the moment, Lu Mings three-dimensional attributes had reached:

Strength: 871.2

Physique: 882.5

Agility: 900.9

Just as he felt that Chengchengs support was decreasing, heaven abided by his wishes.

Excited, Lu Mings appet.i.te improved a lot in the evening.

As the saying went, good news comes in pairs.

In the evening, after Lu Ming finished his stance practice, three shabby military vehicles drove over from afar and stopped at the entrance of Good Hope Village.

After half a month, the Black Mist Exploration Team finally returned.

The return of the Black Mist Exploration Team was undoubtedly a joyous occasion!

However, when he saw the people stepping out of the vehicle, the joyful mood was instantly dampened.

When they set off, there were a total of 15 people in the Black Mist Exploration Team.

However, upon their return, there were only nine remaining.

Bai Tianyu and Duan Mei were fine.

The two of them got out of the car with solemn expressions. When they saw Lu Ming, w.a.n.g Xiong, and the others, they barely squeezed out a smile.

w.a.n.g Xiong took a step forward and said solemnly, Thank you for your hard work.

Lets eat something first. Ive already asked someone to inform Professor Huo Sheng.

Bai Tianyu nodded slightly.

When he saw Lu Mings figure in the distance, he seemed to have put down a heavy burden and relaxed a lot..
