A foreigner's journey

The sky in Norimu City is covered with clouds for at least one-third of the year, and today is no exception.

Moreover, the residents of Norimu City found that the thick clouds in the sky today were slowly rotating like a whirlpool, and the strong wind was mixed with strong moisture, as if a storm was coming.

Pedestrians on the street became hurried, everyone was in a hurry to get home.

Only a man wearing a black trench coat and a black felt hat stood quietly in front of the ruins of the 'Octopus Jack Department Store'.

The fire destroyed everything, leaving only blackened ruins.

Heather knelt down, picked up a charred wooden sign from the ruins in front of her, and slowly brushed away the charred ash with her right hand wearing a black leather glove.

The shape of the poorly drawn cartoon octopus on the sign is almost indistinguishable.

"Young man, are you a friend of the owner of this store?" A trembling old voice came from behind Heather.

Looking back, I saw an old man with white hair wearing a thick woolen coat and a bowler hat standing on the street with a cane and looking at Heather:

"Stop looking. The owner of this store has died in the fire."

"...When did it happen?" Heather threw the sign back into the ruins, causing a large amount of dust to appear.

"About three weeks ago, there was a sudden fire. It almost swept through half the street, and the fire even lit up the night sky."

The old man raised his head slightly and fell into memories:

"The whole street mobilized and tried their best to put out the fire. Even so, four people died in the fire, including Jack, the owner of this store. Old Jack is actually a good man. Although he usually talks a little bit, he is still a good person. A sharp mouth but a soft heart, alas...good people don't live long. Eh? Young man?"

When the old man came back to his senses, he realized that the young man in front of him, wearing a black windbreaker whose face could not be seen, had quietly disappeared at some point, as if he had never appeared before.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but the old man seemed to hear the familiar "ding-a-bell" sound from the grocery store.

The molten and twisted metal shelves snaked upwards crookedly, whining in the increasingly strong wind, like the charred arms reaching for the sky in despair during the fire.

There was a dull thunder in the dark clouds. The old man muttered, "It's weird, it never rained at this time in previous years." Then he turned up his collar and walked towards his home.

Not long after, the storm came as expected, covering the sky and the earth in a curtain of rain.

The dark sky was covered with black rain clouds, and lightning flashed from time to time.

An old man wearing a loose kimono stood on the top of a steep rock, with his right index finger and thumb circling his right eye, looking against the wind and rain towards the towering ant nest in the far east.

This is the NGL autonomous country, and its citizens have been basically devoured. Apart from the chimera ants, the only people left in this country are professional hunters who come to 'exterminate' them.

Isaac Nitro, the president of the Hunter Association and the world's strongest telepathic person, is here in person, which has shown that the Hunter Association attaches great importance to this matter.

After all, a full 34 professional hunters were buried here, including many one-star or even two-star powerful hunters.

Different from the comic plot that Heather read, the chimera ant queen devoured more human flesh and blood and gave birth to the leader of a powerful soldier ant division that was far more powerful than the comic plot. They led a large number of chimera ants to hunt humans wantonly. Contributing flesh and blood to the queen to devour it, thereby giving birth to the most powerful ant king in the history of chimeric ants.

Just like Calabash Baby saving grandpa, first the ordinary professional hunters were wiped out by the group, and the flesh and blood of powerful humans nourished the ant queen to breed powerful division leaders. Then the hunters composed of people with telekinesis were hunted and killed by the division leaders. Offered to the ant queen for devouring, the flesh and blood of these telepathic people became the best tonic, and the terrifying 'King's Guard' was born.

When Nitro came to the ant nest to investigate, he found that the situation was out of control.

If you look at it from the perspective of a person with the ability to read, in fact, [reading] can also be divided by color and shape.

In Nitro's field of vision, two extremely terrifying [thoughts] were guarding the ant nest, and two other equally powerful [thoughts] seemed to be still being nurtured.

Four ‘King’s Guards’? It's really a bit tricky.

Nitro stroked his long beard and showed a competitive smile. He didn't expect that he could still be a challenger at his age. It was interesting.

Regardless of himself being soaked by the rain, Nitro came back to his senses with a smile and looked behind him: "What do you think?"

"It is indeed a very powerful [thought]."

‘Xu’ Chidor, who was standing behind Nitro in a raincoat, still looked gentle. She put down the telescope in her hand and nodded slightly:

"To put it bluntly, it's even more exaggerated than your thoughts→President."

"Are you saying that each of these guys has strength comparable to the strongest in the world?" Next to him, the tall 'Wei' Yinta was startled.

Before Kidor could answer, Nitro stroked his beard and laughed loudly: "My strength is less than half of what it was in its heyday, and 'the world's strongest telepathic person' is just a compliment. To say that the world's strongest telepathic person is Strong, Heather deserves this title more than I do.”

"Unfortunately, Heather is already dead. To this day, we have not been able to figure out where the black mist originated. It could even break through Heather's 'light egg' defense and kill her to the point where there are no bones left."

Speaking of Heather, Chidor still felt a little regretful. They had obviously formed a bond with each other, and they could have become partners in life and death, so why did they die in that black mist? Heather, you can clearly become the most powerful and steadfast successor to the president. If you had not died, Pariston and King would not have...

Yinta scratched his bearded chin: "Speaking of Heather... President, I heard some bad rumors on the black market, and it seems that that bastard Pariston spread them."

Nitro waved his hand: "Jin has already gone to deal with this matter, you don't need to worry about it anymore. In other words, it is rare to see such an angry Jin..."

Ginta and Chidor looked at each other, and the latter pushed up his rain-filled glasses and asked: "So, what is your conclusion about this observation mission on chimera ants?"

"Organize your manpower and prepare for a big battle."

Nitro shook his head: "Assemble all the experts and inform V5 of the specific situation and hazards of the chimera ants. This is a catastrophe with a risk level of B. If one mistake is not made, it may lead to the demise of mankind. V5 can You can’t stay out of it.”

"The United States of Sahelta also needs to be notified?" Chidor suddenly asked.

Nitro glanced at Chidor: "Of course, I know why you hate the United States of Sahelta, little Chidor. In fact, I hate them too, a group of greedy worms who only bully the weak and fear the strong... But, What we are discussing now is a major crisis related to the survival of mankind, so let’s put personal grudges aside for now.”

Toot toot!

At this time, the cell phone in Nitro's arms suddenly rang.
