I run a food city in the last days

She looked around vigilantly, secretly summoning the system interface, and planned to use the Ice Arrow trial version as soon as something went wrong, so as to reduce the delay.

Suddenly, Gu Huaiting asked: "What does that powerful creature look like?"

Lan Ling shook his head: "The insect's IQ is not high, so I can't give a complicated description. I only told me that it has a snake's tail."

"A mutated snake?" Axiong wondered, "I've never heard of such a creature being able to awaken spiritual powers before."

Sun Hao habitually argued: "The world is so vast and full of wonders, maybe you just haven't heard of it."

"Then have you heard of it?" Axiong immediately retorted.

The two of them bickered, and finally looked at the most convinced person: "Boss, you are the judge."

Gu Huaiting ignored them and only lowered his head to inspect the corpse of the mutated creature.

Sun Hao said quickly: "We have checked and found that they were all killed by mental powers, and they should have been killed by one blow. These mutant beasts showed no signs of struggle and resistance."

He said "Hmm" and after looking around, he suddenly leaned over and touched the fur of a mutated beast. When he raised his hand, there was a touch of silver on his fingertips.

It was a semi-curved scale.

She said "Hey" and saw everyone looking over, and said quickly: "I woke up early this morning, and I seemed to have seen a silver snake tail from the second floor window, but, but..."

The blurry picture was still in her mind, but she felt it was too weird, and she couldn't see it clearly. It was probably an illusion caused by the light and fog...

"But what?" Gu Huaiting suddenly asked in a warm voice, "Is that snake looking a little weird?"

She suddenly raised her eyes: "Did you see it too?"

It turned out that it was not her illusion, and her tone suddenly became excited: "Yes, I seem to see the upper half of the snake, or the lower half of a person... In short, it is half human and half snake."

She was a bit incoherent and simply wrote in a blur.

Everyone understood and looked shocked. Sun Hao blurted out: "He followed?"

Zheng Huijuan also frowned: "Why would he appear here? Wasn't he prepared with the previous intelligence?"

She blinked and realized that her reason for shock seemed to be different from theirs: "Do you know what that is?"

Several people looked at each other and finally looked at Gu Huaiting.

He looked calm, as if he already knew the existence of "that one": "Boss Jiang, that child may have followed you."

The words "that child" sounded like a thunderbolt in his ears. Jiang Yiyin backed away in shock and stammered: "Wha, what? Then, that's him?"

A faint smile appeared on the man's face: "Has he never completely appeared in front of you?"

Her mind couldn't help but start recalling the scenes of every meeting between her and the child.

It seemed to be true. She had seen the child above the deputy level at most, and she had always thought that the child was too wary. She never expected that the truth would be so horrifying.

She found it unbelievable, but her reason told her that Gu Huaiting would not joke about this kind of thing, so... her voice was difficult to pronounce: "How can he be half human and half snake? Is this also a kind of mutation?"

She looked at the mutated beasts all over the ground. No matter what direction they mutated, they still retained their "animal" form.

That child actually mutated into that state. Could it be that he was a white snake that became a spirit before the end of the world?

Gu Huaiting said at this time: "He has been eating at Boss Jiang's house. There should be no ill intentions in following him this time. Since he doesn't want to show up in front of us, everyone should just pretend that they don't know about it. After all, he is a mutated creature and violates the rules." His wishes may irritate him.”

Everyone nodded and simply stopped talking about the issue out of caution.

"I don't think there's any need to explore the road. Let's walk together. I think this journey will be relatively peaceful."

Gu Huaiting's guess was correct. They passed through wilderness areas that were classified as D-level and C-level without any danger. The child dared to deal with all the dangers in front of them.

She suddenly thought of something and asked in a low voice: "Captain Gu, do you think the mutated pheasant and wild boar were hunted by him?"

"Probably," he nodded, "Psychic powers are rare, and he should like you very much."

Thinking of the child being hunted and sent to the food city again and again, she suddenly remembered a saying she had seen in the original world:

Your cat may be worried about you not being able to feed itself, so it may hunt and give it to you.

Shaking her head, she drove out the various cat images, thinking that the child was a super mutated creature that Gu Huaiting treated very carefully, completely different from a cute and soft cat.

While he was thinking wildly, Gu Huaiting suddenly spoke again: "Maybe you are right, that child is not an ordinary mutant creature."

"Ah?" Why didn't she know when she said something?

He looked thoughtful: "Although some creatures have improved their IQs after mutation, there are few who can communicate with people like him, and his form has always puzzled me."

"What are you doubting?" she couldn't help but ask.

"Is this really the result of natural mutation?" He touched his chin, "According to the Eden Base, biological mutation is also a kind of evolution, and humanoid type will be the end point of their mutation. That child is the current mutated creature. He is the most humanized among human beings, so they pay special attention to him and require bases everywhere to capture him alive no matter what."

She understood the hidden meaning in his words: "Are you suspecting that his appearance is not the result of normal mutation?"

He looked over with deep eyes, suddenly leaned into her ear and asked, "Has Boss Jiang heard of a rumor? The Eden Base has been conducting secret genetic research in secret, hoping to promote the controllable evolution of human beings."

She opened her mouth in surprise and shook her head after a while.

He did not continue the topic and suddenly said: "Look, Changfeng Base has arrived."

A metal wall appeared in front, which was indeed much smaller than Wutong Base in terms of area.

As soon as they approached, several figures appeared on the wall: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Sun Hao raised his voice: "We are the trading team from Wutong Base and Mulan Base, and we have brought the specialties from our places."

But the people on the city wall did not relax their vigilance: "Don't the merchant teams at Wutong Base only take this route once every six months? It's not the time yet, and it's not you people."

"We are not the official team of the base, but a newly formed private caravan, and the goods we bring are different from those of the official team."

Sun Hao answered eloquently, and then opened the disposable box he had prepared in his hand.

It contained braised beef. He held it up with a smile and showed it to the people on the wall: "Did you see it, brother? Super delicious braised beef. This is our product."

There was a commotion on the wall, and soon the figure disappeared. After a while, the closed metal door slowly opened with a loud creaking sound.
