Chapter 496: Fruit City No. 2 (Part 1)

"They can’t stay in the central disaster zone forever. They will come back eventually. I believe sincerity brings success."

"You talk as if you have a chance. Outstanding people will only be with other outstanding people. You should just go to bed."

"I don’t believe it. People need dreams."

"Is there any strong person willing to take people into the central disaster zone? Looking for a team. I promise not to be a burden."

"Same request here."

While the internet was buzzing about them, Amalia and Kenny Lin were wreaking havoc in the central disaster zone.

The two of them together were so formidable that even high-level mutated creatures retreated.

They cleared the area around Fruit City No. 2 of high-level mutated creatures.

Their accuracy in locating the mutated creatures’s lairs was thanks to Wealth.

To reward it, Amalia always shared some of the mid to high-level crystal cores they found.

Not only did their cultivation and experience rapidly increase, but Wealth level also grew higher.

However, apart from this use, even with higher cultivation, it was still mostly decorative.

In a real fight, it would scare itself before even stepping out.

During this time, they returned to Fruit City No. 2, which was relatively stable, with no powerful mutated creatures launching attacks.

Thus, their fierce reputation slowly spread among the high-level mutated creatures.

Before they knew it, three months had passed.

A month ago, Fruit City No. 2 lifted the ban and allowing the low-level spiritual cultivators to enter the central disaster zone.

The spiritual cultivators who came to Fruit City No. 2 hoping to venture into the central disaster zone were finally delighted, but they soon realized they were happy too soon.

Within a 200-mile radius of Fruit City No. 2, all high-level mutated creatures’s lairs had been cleared out, leaving only some scraps around the edges for them.

"Who the hell is so inconsiderate, leaving nothing for us?"

After searching several high and mid-level mutated creatures’s lairs, a group of spiritual cultivators couldn’t hold back their frustration and roared to the sky.

A companion tried to calm him down, "Stop complaining. It’s not good if someone hears you."

"Let them hear it! If they have the guts to do it, they should let people talk about it," Arjun Uno shouted angrily.

"That depends on the target. I heard this was done by the Demon Slayer and his girlfriend, Amalia. They’re clearing the threats for Fruit City No. 2. If your word gets out, they might not care about it, but if their fans hear it, it could be trouble."

By now, Amalia and Kenny Lin had a large fan base.

If they heard this, their collective disdain could drown you.

"I’m... I’m not afraid," Arjun Uno said, but he subconsciously glanced around, his behavior betraying his inner though.

Kenny Lin suddenly sneezed and immediately looked at Amalia, who was wiping blood off her spiritual sword.

"Don’t talk to me," Amalia cut him off before he could speak.

Kenny Lin looked aggrieved, "I haven’t even said anything yet."

Amalia remained expressionless, "You haven’t, but it’s written all over your face. I don’t want to discuss this."

"Why, are you finally getting tired of me?" Kenny Lin said, his face full of mock sorrow.

Amalia, feeling a little bit nauseated, sheathed her spiritual sword, took out a dagger, and began cutting up the corpse of the high-level mutated creature in front of her, collecting any useful parts.

Soon, only a skeleton that was left of the high-level mutated creature.

"Instead of wasting time bickering, you should look for other items, especially the black fragments," Amalia said, deliberately ignoring his topic.

"This guy is so poor, there’s no way he has any," Kenny Lin sighed, having already checked.

Amalia frowned, "That’s troublesome. We’ve killed seven or eight high-level mutated creatures this month, going deeper into the disaster zone, yet we haven’t found a single black fragment. The probability doesn’t match our previous findings."

Kenny Lin nodded his head seriously, "You’re worried the black fragments that were out there have been reclaimed."

"It’s possible. Have the human authorities been collecting these black fragments?" Amalia asked.

"Definitely. Although the black fragments aren’t useful for human cultivation, they can’t just let the mutated creatures keep getting stronger. So the government has been sending people to collect them. I heard they even developed new weapons from them, but since these fragments can’t be used for wealth, they’re not very practical."

Kenny Lin didn’t seek power, but he was privy to important secrets.

"I have two hypotheses. Either we’ve been really unlucky, and the mutated creatures we’ve encountered just don’t have black fragments, or these fragments have been summoned back by that powerful mutated creature deeper in the disaster zone. It could be for some specific purpose or simply just to prevent humans from taking them. But the former seems more likely."

Amalia leaned towards the possibility that the black fragments were useful to the powerful mutated creature.

If that was true, that mutated creature was likely planning something significant, and humans needed to prepare early.

"We should head back to Fruit City No. 2 and report this information," Amalia decided immediately.

The two retraced their steps and encountered some spiritual cultivators wandering aimlessly.

"Have you not found any mutated creatures either?"

A young spiritual cultivator approached them eagerly.

Amalia paused for a moment.

The others took her reaction as confirmation.

"It seems there’s nothing ahead either. I ran for miles and didn’t encounter a single mutated creature. It used to be that you’d find one every few steps, groups every ten steps."

"Although I exaggerating it a little bit, but things are different now. I don’t know whether to thank them for clearing out the threats or blame them for blocking our path to wealth."

"Maybe we should just go back. If we go any further, it’ll really be dangerous."

"No, we’ve been in the central disaster zone for over half a month. I don’t want to return empty-handed. Let’s wait a little bit longer," the young spiritual cultivator said stubbornly.
