Seeing that Zhou Chen had made up his mind, the few of them did not speak further. After all, what Zhou Chen said was the truth. They really had nowhere to go. If they could solve the food problem, there was nothing wrong with staying here.

“Hilda, remain here. Lucy and I will go to the nearby city destroyed by the monsters. We should be able to find a lot of things there.”

Since he had decided to stay here, Zhou Chen immediately took action.

“You can look after these canned foods.”

In order to comfort Hilda and let her stay here in peace, Zhou Chen handed most of the canned food he had collected to her. Anyway, he could replenish his nutrients by sunbathing, so he did not need to consume these foods.

“Alright, come back early.” Seeing that Zhou Chen had given her most of the precious food, Hilda knew that he was serious. It was a pity that she was not a mutant and could not go with them to the destroyed city that had most likely become a moderately polluted area.

Zhou Chen drove with Lucy to the city in the west.

After driving for about fifteen minutes, they were near their destination.

The situation in the destroyed city seemed to be bad. They encountered some injured people who had driven out. Some of them were quite seriously injured and died inside their vehicles.

Zhou Chen stopped the jeep and asked a few escapees who were in good condition about the situation in the city.

“There are many monsters ahead! Don’t go over!”

“Insects! The entire gathering area is filled with insects!”

“Insects! There are insects everywhere!”

…

Soon, Zhou Chen knew that the city they were preparing to go to had been attacked by a group of insect monsters and had basically fallen into a state of destruction.

“Captain, insect-type monsters are very dangerous in groups.” Lucy reminded him.

“I know. I will be careful.” Zhou Chen nodded slightly.

Then, Zhou Chen continued to drive in that direction and approached the city.

After moving forward for a while, he realized that there were fewer and fewer escapees on the way. He could only see some corpses.

When Zhou Chen drove past a corpse on the road, an insect monster that looked like a black beetle suddenly crawled out of the corpse’s skin and flew towards him.

This monster was slightly smaller than a peanut, but its flying speed was very fast and it was very strong. Although there was only one, it was very aggressive. In the blink of an eye, it broke through the broken window of Zhou Chen’s jeep.

Against such a small monster moving directly at him, Zhou Chen caught it easily and clenched his hand.

However, Zhou Chen realized that he could not crush it easily. In fact, he had to increase the strength of his grip to crush the insect that was struggling crazily in his hand.

‘This little thing is not weak.’ Zhou Chen thought inwardly.

[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the mutated beetle’s passive skill, “Copper Skin Iron Bones III”. Detected that it is superior to the passive skill you already have. It will automatically be replaced.]

[Copper Skin Iron Bone III

Type: High bronze passive skill

Physical damage taken is reduced by 40%.]

[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have obtained the passive skill of the mutated beetle, “Feast III”. Do you want to absorb it?]

[Feast III

Type: High bronze passive skill

When you injure a target, 12% of their lost health will be absorbed by you, giving you the corresponding healing and energy recovery effect.]

“This little thing has such amazing passive skills?”

Zhou Chen, who had already activated the Shield passive skill, was shocked as he reached out to scatter the insect fragments in his hand outside the window.

He had held no hopes of obtaining any passive skills by killing this little insect. He only wanted to get rid of this little monster that had tried to attack him. Unexpectedly, this little monster actually had two rather good passive skills.

“Absorb!”

After quickly reading the introduction of the new passive skill, Feast III, Zhou Chen absorbed it. There was no need to hesitate. This passive skill was similar to the commonly seen life-steal skills in games. It was a very useful skill.

After absorbing the passive skills, Zhou Chen clenched his fists. He felt that his body had indeed become tougher. At the same time, he vaguely felt a special hunger. action

“This Feast passive skill even has such an effect? Its name is indeed apt.”

The passive skill, Feast, made Zhou Chen feel a slight thirst for blood, making him want to kill to eliminate that faint hunger.

“Lucy, there should be many of these insects ahead. They’re very dangerous. Wait for me here.”

He turned around and instructed Lucy. He then stopped the car and got off. He walked to the city area not far ahead. He was prepared to start a massacre.

“Captain, I’ll wait for you here!” Lucy obeyed Zhou Chen and stayed in the car.

Zhou Chen turned to remind her, “If you encounter any special circumstances, drive back first! Safety first!”

With that, Zhou Chen quickened his pace and charged into the city.

After a while, Zhou Chen arrived at the city’s streets. The place was desolate. He could not see anyone or even any corpses, only patches of blood on the ground.

“Have the people here been eaten by the insects? Not even bones are left?”

Buzz ~

While he was thinking, he heard the cries of insects from a nearby building. It sounded like bees, but the tone was deeper.

Then, he saw a large group of black insects charge out of the window of the house. Because they were very dense, it looked like a large black fog had flown out.

“Suppression! Activate!”

Zhou Chen immediately activated the passive skill that he rarely used.

This passive skill weakened the monsters within a hundred meters of him. The weaker the monsters, the better the effect. It was very suitable to deal with these insects who moved in groups.

As expected, once Zhou Chen activated Suppression, the speed of the black beetles flying at him immediately decreased, and the height of their flight also decreased.. Some of them even fell to the ground, unconscious.
