Chapter 340 - 340 340 Long-Awaited Rotten Flesh

?Chapter 340: Chapter 340: Long-Awaited Rotten Flesh Chapter 340: Chapter 340: Long-Awaited Rotten Flesh After wandering through the barren wilderness for over half an hour, we finally spotted the silhouette of a city. The distant high-rise buildings added a bit of variety to the otherwise monotonous landscape.

Visca had been collecting data from our surroundings the whole way. Beyond what satellites could observe, the data she had gathered could easily fill two British Libraries—from the composition of the air to the gravitational constant, from the structure of plants to atmospheric density, from cosmic ray remnants to light intensity. She even idly began to calculate the radius of this “Earth” we were walking on based on the data already measured.

Thanks to Visca’s somewhat overly exaggerated diligence, we had gained a basic understanding of this world. At a glance, it seemed scarcely different from Earth in terms of environment and life forms, which were conventional carbon-based beings. Besides discovering one or two types of monocotyledonous plants that had already gone extinct on Earth, one could even say this place was another Earth. Therefore, when I saw the city in the distance that looked vaguely familiar, I was not at all surprised.

Unsurprisingly to anyone, the city we reached was completely lifeless. After quietly driving into this seemingly modern metropolis, we were only greeted by an almost palpable frigid silence. As we slowly drove through the deserted streets, I could not help but feel as though this dead city was quietly observing us—an illusion not unfamiliar to me. In past dreams, the sleeping Xyrin Mother Star was similarly silent, but that was merely a slumber waiting for awakening. The city before us now, however, was already dead.

It didn’t seem to be the place Lin Xue had seen in her dreams. As we drove on, I theorized that the scattered bodies and signs of resistance described in Lin Xue’s dreams were absent. It looked like what had occurred here prior to its destruction was an orderly evacuation rather than futile chaos. Of course, we might not have reached that part of the city yet—after all, we were still only on the outskirts, and even a major disaster shouldn’t have left no peaceful streets behind, right?

“Brother, abnormal life fluctuations detected ahead.”

As we were slow-driving on the city streets, Visca’s warning light flashed a serious red.

“Is it that ‘Fierce Beast’ that caused the disaster…?”

I murmured softly, then steadied the car in front of a shop. I didn’t activate any disguise system because I was curious about this ‘Fierce Beast’ that high-tech humans couldn’t handle, even to the point of facing extinction.

According to Lin Xue’s description of her dream, although she couldn’t see the creature that killed the citizens, the wounds on the bodies made it clear that the attacker was a beast. Could such a world of low magic and low energy produce something that even advanced firearms couldn’t counter?
