Zhang Lang's posture, stepping on the head of the saber-toothed lion, was like that of a god descending to earth, completely shocking Sasha and Jess. (Google search reading)

The two looked at each other and saw excitement and hope in each other's eyes.

For the past six months, they have been hiding from the ghosts while also being wary of these terrifying monsters, living in constant fear and trepidation in the devastated city of McKinsey.

Although shelters have been established and things have become more stable, maintaining their operation often involves taking huge risks by going out to collect resources.

In McKinsey, compared to the dazed zombies and weak monsters, the remaining humans are at the bottom of the food chain, suffering the most pain, the most humiliation, and the most despair!

But now, a powerful being with good intentions has appeared before us. Perhaps he really can help the survivors change their dire situation?

Looking at Zhang Lang's heroic figure, Sasha's thoughts flew back to more than a year ago, remembering that tall man protecting her in a city full of zombies.

"Can you... defeat the monster?"

Sasha's eyes reddened, and her lips trembled.

"Can I... ask you for help?"

Zhang Lang laughed: "That depends on whether you're a good guide or not."

Sasha sniffed, wiped her eyes, and smiled. "Don't worry, we've been to every single street in McKinsey!"

"Let's go there first!" Jess raised his hand. "Those giants in the stadium are awful; they killed dozens of my zombies last time!"

"The stadium is too far," Sasha shook her head. "Let's go to the Red Curtain Theater first; the giant snakes coiled there are quite troublesome too!"

"And there's more..." Jess counted on his fingers: "The giant beetles on the commercial street; the super crocodiles in the North Canal; the flock of giant eagles on the rooftops of office buildings on the East Third Ring Road..."

Sasha and Jess were very knowledgeable about the various monsters in McKinsey City, and under their guidance, Zhang Lang began his hunting trip in McKinsey City.

Meanwhile, at a motel outside McKinsey, Arcee, who was on night duty, yawned.

"Cheer up..." Kang Hai noticed this and reminded us, "There might be monsters nearby waiting for us to fall asleep."

"If a monster were to come knocking on our door, that would be perfect." Arcee slung the gleaming barrel of his gun over his shoulder and gave a cold laugh.

"I didn't earn many points this time because I was taking care of the young master!"

"Don't worry, this mission will be packed with monsters!" Kang Hai pulled out a handwritten booklet:

"This information was provided by Dr. Bard. It's said to be a monster they created through virus experiments at their research institute!"

"It's said that these monsters were created by the research institute for military purposes and have all undergone specialized combat modifications. Although the virus outbreak has lasted for so long, and the city is full of new monsters created by the virus, these modified monsters will most likely win in the survival competition, survive, and even become BOSS-level monsters!"

Kalsi took the booklet, opened it, and frowned: "What's the first one? A gigantic human?"

"It's an experiment to increase human size!" Kang Hai explained, having already flipped through the booklet.

"Dr. Bard said that after they discovered that this virus could mutate organisms, their first thought was to create a giant... but it seems that because the bone strength was insufficient or something, simply enlarging it didn't work, so they did a lot of modifications."

As he spoke, Kang Hai leaned closer and pointed to the anatomical diagram of the monster drawn on the booklet: "This kind of monster is three stories tall. Its skeleton is implanted with a special alloy, and its muscles are also enhanced by a virus. It can carry tens of tons of heavy objects. It also has bio-armor implanted under its skin. Although its intelligence is not as good as that of ordinary humans, it is enough to make simple tools and it is very likely to attack with weapons."

Alci narrowed his eyes: "Thick-skinned, incredibly strong, and possessing a certain level of intelligence... looks like a tough opponent, definitely worth a lot of money!"

"A little over three hundred..." Inside the large stadium in McCann City, Zhang Lang stood on the head of a giant human figure, listening to Xu help him calculate the score.

The enormous head, with its severed neck revealing metallic-looking cervical vertebrae, and beneath the skin, a layer of scaly keratin, exactly resembled the giant depicted in the booklet.

"It's just that there are only five, there are only a few..." Zhang Lang shook his head.

"Isn't that enough?"

Sasha and Jess, who had been hiding nearby, ran out, stepped over the weapon that was as big as a telephone pole, and stomped on the blood-soaked weeds, making squelching sounds.

"These five have kept us away from the stadium for the past few months. If a few more come, we're doomed..."

"Okay..." Zhang Lang raised his foot and kicked the massive head, which weighed over a ton, flying straight out of the stadium.

"Next place!"

…………

"What is this now?"

After studying the giant's body structure and weaknesses, Arcee turned to the information on the second type of monster.

It was a giant snake over eighty meters long, with a head the size of a bread cart, and sharp fangs in its mouth that could shoot highly corrosive venom.

"This is quite dangerous too." Kang Hai stood next to Alsi, glancing sideways, seemingly looking at the booklet in her hand or something else.

"Dr. Bard said that this giant snake appeared by chance. The reptile's lifelong growth genes were enhanced by a virus, resulting in its exaggerated size. Similarly, to maintain its mobility, the snake's body strength has been greatly increased. According to tests, its scales can withstand attacks from small-caliber machine guns; your sniper rifle might not be effective!"

Arsi scoffed, "My sniper rifle isn't just about high penetration!"

As he spoke, he stroked the gun barrel resting on his shoulder.

…………

The spacious city theater hall was in a mess, with the originally fixed seats scattered everywhere, revealing the bare steps and floor, like a dried-out corn cob with the kernels removed.

On the second floor of the audience stands, a snake-like body, as thick as a train car, lay limply, one end extending outwards along the theater entrance, while the other end crashed through the theater wall, its destination unknown.

On the enormous stage, the curtain was split in two, and a gigantic snake head emerged from backstage, its mouth half-open, revealing half of its tongue, and slumped onto the wooden platform, cracking the floor.

The two thick, long fangs were broken off, and venom flowed all over the floor, hissing and bubbling as it corroded the floor.

"550 points?" Zhang Lang stepped out from backstage, riding on a snake, and shook the blood off his hands. "That's enough to be considered a mini-boss."

As he spoke, he looked at Sasha and Jess, who were hiding in a corner of the stands, their faces filled with shock: "Just this one?"

"How much more do you want?" Sasha didn't know whether to thank Zhang Lang or scold him for being so arrogant.

"You think it's not enough?" Jess's eyes lit up. "I know a place where the monsters are plentiful and powerful!"

.........

"What is this now?"

After browsing through many test subjects, Arcee's attention was drawn to a new monster.

Although the creatures modified by the research institute are powerful and dangerous, they all look pretty much the same after a while; they are nothing more than bizarre mutated animals.

However, this one is a little different.

This is a tree!

To be precise, it is a mutated man-eating tree.

While other trees branch out, blossom, and bear fruit, this tree produces man-eating flowers that resemble gaping mouths. These mouths are filled with sharp barbs, secrete digestive juices, and even emit a gas containing paralyzing toxins, rendering any creature that gets close immobile and leaving them helpless to be slaughtered.

According to Dr. Bard's records, this tree was cultivated in the Hidden Snow area of ​​the McKinley Botanical Garden. At that time, it was just a seedling, only a little over a meter tall, but it was already able to hunt and kill small animals such as rabbits, cats, and dogs. Not only was its poison gas potent, but its attack was also extremely swift.

However, this information is from more than half a century ago. According to the information, given enough nutrients, this tree grows extremely fast. If that tree were still alive today, how big would it be?

…………

McKinsey Botanical Garden...

A year ago, this place was home to all sorts of exotic flowers and plants, and was a popular holiday destination for locals.

However, since the outbreak of the virus, the botanical garden has also been overrun by rampaging zombies and monsters. Most of the rare plants from all over the world have withered and died due to the lack of human care and a constant temperature and humidity environment.

The empty spaces they vacated were all occupied by a strange kind of tree!

"This is the man-eating tree!"

Jess pointed to the lush, wooded path in the botanical garden.

The three of them were now standing on the top of a building not far from the botanical garden. Looking down, most of the botanical garden had been taken over by man-eating trees. Everywhere there were menacing branches and terrifying mouths. Occasionally, a bird would fly by and be caught by suddenly emerging vines, stuffed into the huge mouths, and chewed into minced meat.

"There must be over a hundred of these, right?" Zhang Lang frowned.

"At first, there was only one tree," Jess explained. "Then the virus broke out, the botanical garden was abandoned, and many plants died. The man-eating tree monopolized the soil's fertility, and with zombies and other creatures frequently breaking in and feeding on it, this strange tree grew incredibly fast, even scattering its seeds in all directions. In just a few months, its offspring had spread throughout the entire botanical garden!"

At this point, Jess clicked his tongue: "The reproductive ability of this man-eating tree is terrifying! I estimate that in a few years, it will be all over McKinsey, and may even continue to expand outwards, eventually conquering the world!"

"This is even more difficult to deal with than ordinary monsters..." Sasha said with a worried expression, "Zhang Lang, let's leave this for now. It's too dangerous to enter this man-eating forest. It can't move and won't prevent you from entering the research institute. Let's wait for Dr. Bard's research data and find a suitable method before dealing with it."

"No, it must be dealt with today!"

Zhang Lang's attitude was resolute; at this moment, he was staring at the phone that served as the emblem of the altar.

Just now, as the two were introducing the man-eating tree to him, the badge sent a special notification:

"Hidden quest triggered: Destroy the man-eating tree. Accept?"
