Monster Hunter, start with a wife!

Chapter 43 Ruins Realm Anomaly

"clang--"

Above Star Iron City.

A muffled chime echoed through the city's streets and alleys, lingering for a long time.

The residents of the outer city were all astonished by the sound.

The woman hanging clothes to dry suddenly jerked her hand, and the clothes fell with a "thud" onto the rusty iron fence;

A homeless man squatting on a street corner, gnawing on dried rat meat, suddenly looked up, his cloudy eyes staring blankly at the sky.

A prisoner taking a shower in the jail jerked his hand and dropped the soap on the floor...

Everything in the city seemed to have been abruptly paused.

Everyone's gaze was drawn to the towering halo surrounding the city.

Looking into the distance,

The four transverse gates in the east, west, south, and north of the city, which originally shone with a pale gray halo, now seemed to have all their turbidity removed, turning completely white like jade.

The hyperspace gate has been distorted!

The sound of the bell signifies that the gate will be breached after the countdown ends.

Although this was only a warning from the Hunting Ruins Administration,

But the warning bells of the Void Realm have never been wrong.

"The gate has distorted!" someone shouted in the middle of the night, their voice trembling.

"The alarm bells are ringing! They're about to break down the door!"

Discussion erupted instantly, and panic spread like a tidal wave.

The sounds of frantic packing could soon be heard from the residential buildings near the four gates, as many people began moving overnight.

Although people know the rules

Hunters inside the portal have seven days to kill the boss and close the portal.

No one believed that those newly awakened newcomers could handle a BOSS that had been mutated to the first level.

Once the gate is breached, a massive number of strange beasts will surge out immediately. Even if the Hunting Army wants to enter the gate in time, they will have to break through the first wave of beasts before they can enter the gate.

They didn't want to wait anxiously nearby.

"How could this happen..."

Inside a new apartment in Xingfu Community.

Ruan Qinghe, who was washing Cheng Zhuo's clothes, paused for a moment, then buried her head and continued washing.

"No, Zhuo-ge will be fine, he definitely won't..."

She murmured to herself, but her trembling shoulders clearly betrayed her anxious heart.

"He said he would bring them back with him."

The lingering echoes of the bells outside the window still drifted in.

The new house was quiet, with only the sound of running water from the faucet and Ruan Qinghe's occasional soft murmurs.

It was like encouraging herself, or perhaps praying.

……

……

At this time.

Outside the stone city in the endless wasteland.

Cheng Zhuo stared at the revelation of the updated Ruins Realm and was immediately taken aback.

[The Pharaoh's resentment has manifested; please slay the derivative lord, Blind Corpse, Tier 1.]

Huangfu Bai and his group have most likely encountered a Boss!

Although this custom-made gravity body has its source power index controlled at level 0, it is still at the top level of novice combat power in terms of both defense and attack. What's more, there are five of them, including Huangfu Bai.

Under this force

The fact that three people have died shows that the trouble they are facing is no small matter.

"Duang—"

Suddenly, the can bounced past Cheng Zhuo's mecha like a bouncy ball.

One stone-faced monster after another.

They had a lot of fun, but the killing was also very brutal.

This mutated BOSS might be tough to deal with, but could it really be a match for the can?

Upon seeing the jar, Cheng Zhuo's slightly tense state of mind relaxed a bit.

Saving lives is the priority, but before that, he plans to activate the three epic-level blind cores given to him by the system and maximize his combat power.

After removing the blind core, Cheng Zhuo immediately unleashed a triple attack.

An epic-level blind deck doesn't guarantee you'll get epic cards, but it does have the highest probability of yielding epic cards, with even a slight chance of getting legendary cards.

Cheng Zhuo's luck value of 23 points is clearly not just a numerical value.

Three blind cores yielded two epic-tier items and one legendary-tier item!

【Beast Pet Illusion - Support Card】

[Quality: Epic - Purple]

【Effect: After use, it can cast five pet illusions. Each illusion's attack power is perfectly inherited from the real body, but its defense is only 30%. The effect lasts for 30 minutes. Energy cooldown: 24 hours】

[Usage Restriction: Cannot be stacked with other support cards]

[Introduction: Guess which one is the real cat?]

Upon seeing this support card, Cheng Zhuo was overjoyed.

Although it was only thirty minutes, he believed that when a stalemate occurred, the six cans could definitely end the battle instantly.

[Hovercraft - Supply Card]

[Quality: Epic - Purple]

[Effect: Releases a low-altitude, anti-gravity motorhome]

Usage restrictions: None

[Description: This is a PR-level RV stored using Source Card Capsule technology. Beasts below Tier 3 can hardly cause it any effective damage. However, be careful, as its rate of consuming Source Cores is terrifying. Be careful, or it will burn through your entire balance.]

Cheng Zhuo was also very satisfied with the RV.

He was just debating whether to provide assistance, and there was another crucial point in that...

He didn't really want Xia Mo and Xia Chan to leave his side.

They were Cheng Zhuo's true purpose in entering this desolate realm. If rescuing the two sisters would put them in danger, it would be a loss.

With this car, at least he wouldn't have to worry about their safety.

Finally, Cheng Zhuo's gaze fell on the legendary card that shimmered with an orange glow:

【King Series Cards - Support Card (1/5)】

[Quality: Legendary Orange]

[Effect: After fusion, you will enter King state, which will enhance your biological body strength and original skills by 5 times for 1 hour. Energy storage cooldown: 7 days]

[Usage Restrictions: No level restrictions, cannot be combined with other auxiliary cards, and cannot be transferred after authentication]

[Description: This is a support card from the King series. Try to collect all the cards in the series, and you will become the true King]

It's a series of cards!

Cheng Zhuo didn't know much about card series, but he knew that the strongest point of card series was the card set attribute.

Each additional card in the series will significantly increase combat power.

However, judging from the card effects right now, multiplying by 5 is already an extremely overpowered skill effect.

Three blind cores were dismantled.

Cheng Zhuo's confidence instantly soared.

If it were just the jar, he might still have some doubts—

He had no idea how to lose even with six cans.

Cheng Zhuo didn't waste any more time. After briefly understanding the card skills, he turned his mech around, launched it, and headed straight for the city wall.

"These food and water are for you."

Cheng Zhuo handed his backpack to Da Meng and instructed him, "There is a signal device in the backpack. You stay in the city and wait for rescue. The Hunting Ruins Army should arrive soon."

"Okay, then you..." Da Meng took the backpack and looked suspiciously at Cheng Zhuo's empty hands.

"My teammates have many more."

Cheng Zhuo didn't explain much. He carried the two sisters on his shoulders, one on each side, and temporarily secured them with straps.

Locking down Huangfu Bai's location,

Cheng Zhuo shot out swiftly towards the desolate plain shrouded in night fog.

Until the outline of Stone City was completely swallowed by the dark night,

Cheng Zhuocai slowly landed the mecha.

"Why did it stop?"

Xia Chan's voice was somewhat bewildered. She kept gripping the cold shoulder of the mecha, unable to touch Xia Mo, and unable to see anything, which made her a little panicked.

In Xia Mo's field of vision, it was actually pitch black.

The surroundings were empty, with only the mournful sound of the wind sweeping across the wasteland.

Trusting Cheng Zhuo, they didn't even ask what they were supposed to do before following him out of the city.

"I've got something good to show you."

Cheng Zhuo jumped out of the cockpit and helped the two sisters slide down the mecha's shoulder wings.

He immediately retrieved the supply card from the hovercar.

With his fingertips gripping the edge of the card, Cheng Zhuo infused a trace of his source energy, and pale purple light patterns quickly spread across the card surface.

Xia Mo's clear eyes lit up instantly.

Epic cards!

She had only seen it online.

I heard that even the cheapest models cost millions!

She couldn't help but glance at the handsome face that was illuminated by the purple light. This man was becoming more and more mysterious, always full of surprises. No wonder Sister Qinghe was so fascinated by him.

Pale purple light patterns spread out, quickly condensing into translucent vehicle silhouettes on the ground, gradually solidifying...

"Wow! What is this...?"

Xia Chan rubbed her eyes; the pitch-black night was affecting her vision. She pulled Xia Mo forward and suddenly her almond-shaped eyes widened.

When the two women first saw the vehicle icon light up on the card, they did realize it was a vehicle supply card.

After all, Cheng Zhuo is already piloting a mecha, so it seems quite normal for him to have a car as well.

But this...

Isn't that a bit too much?
