Chapter 247: Farms

Liang Yu quickly thought of a possible answer to that question.

That was to destroy some things; only in this great explosion could all traces be completely obliterated.

So the most crucial question now was: what did they want to destroy, and why didn’t they want it to appear before the world?

Liang Yu found it incredibly ridiculous that they were still trying to conceal something at a time like this.

No!

It should be said, utterly ridiculous.

Now, even cannibalism was out in the open, so what else could be hidden from the light?

Unable to figure it out, Liang Yu quickly stopped thinking and directly asked Zhou Lihua.

“I want to know the answer to the previous question. Think carefully before you reply.”

“The Chemical Factory was bombed merely to destroy something you had lost control of, or perhaps some animals.”

“I don’t want to make things difficult for you. You just need to say ‘yes’ or ’no.’ A nod or a shake of your head will suffice.”

Liang Yu finished speaking in one breath, looking at the still dazed Zhou Lihua, and couldn’t help but shake his head, the meaning clear: this kid was useless.

After waiting another two or three minutes, Liang Yu saw that Zhou Lihua still wasn’t answering, so he decided to put some pressure on her.

Otherwise, she would be like a donkey that wouldn’t move without a few whips.

This time, Liang Yu shoved Second Unit’s firearm against Zhou Lihua’s face again, poking her face.

However, after poking twice, he noticed something was wrong, and he immediately made Second Unit lift her face.

On the other side, Liang Yu’s eyes widened as he stared in disbelief at the person in front of him, who no longer showed any signs of life.

He had only intended to put some pressure on her to make her tell the truth, but he hadn’t expected this young man to be so fragile under pressure, resulting in such an outcome.

However, if she was dead, then so be it; it just meant he hadn’t gotten a definitive answer from someone in the know.

None of that mattered to him. Liang Yu looked at the corpse in front of him, moved back a bit, raised his gun, and started finishing her off by shooting her in the head.

After a round of shooting, Zhou Lihua’s head was riddled with holes, leaving no possibility of survival.

If the opponent thought she could escape by faking death, she was too naive.

After finishing her off, Liang Yu had Second Unit directly take out an incendiary grenade and set Zhou Lihua’s body on fire.

After dealing with Zhou Lihua, Second Unit slowly approached the pile of items Zhou Lihua had previously discarded.

It rummaged through the items on the ground one by one, tearing open the protective suit, which contained nothing.

After messing with the protective suit, Liang Yu turned his attention to her backpack.

Without a word, he dumped everything from the backpack onto the torn pieces of the protective suit.

With the items spilled out, Second Unit, under Liang Yu’s control, meticulously searched every corner of Zhou Lihua’s backpack.

But still, no valuable items were found; the other small compartments in the backpack contained what Liang Yu considered ’trash.’

He continued to rummage through the pile of discarded items, a hint of irritation in his eyes.

Suddenly, Second Unit’s searching motion stopped, and Liang Yu’s gaze fell on a small box in a corner.

He opened the box, revealing a pair of diamond rings. A helpless smile appeared on his face; at a time like this, the opponent was still collecting such things.

Liang Yu muttered to himself.

“Has the opponent not gotten the item yet?”

He put the rings back into the box, then gathered Zhou Lihua’s belongings, which, aside from this box, consisted of a little less than half a bottle of water and some jerky.

The rest were some scattered daily necessities, but among these daily necessities, Liang Yu actually discovered a perfectly packaged box.

This was Okamoto 0.01. He suddenly wanted to know what those rings were for.

Tossing Zhou Lihua’s backpack back onto the pile of trash, Liang Yu continued along the path Zhou Lihua had taken when she fled.

Second Unit walked along this path for about ten minutes, and at a turn, it discovered an underground breeding farm in front of it.

It cautiously entered, only to find the inside dark and damp, and without even looking, one could tell a pungent odor permeated the air.

The farm had designated areas for various animals.

Most of the animals kept here were common livestock like pigs, cattle, and sheep, but there were also some rare wild animals.

The cages used to hold those animals were now completely empty.

Second Unit continued forward, and not long after, a deep roar echoed from the depths of the breeding farm.

Liang Yu directed Second Unit to follow the sound, and after climbing over several walls, they finally found a giant monster in a corner at the edge.

This monster was massive, covered in hard scales, and its eyes exuded a ferocious aura.

Liang Yu suddenly realized that this monster was the target he had been searching for.

Perhaps these monsters weren’t just one; there might have been a group, which would explain the Chemical Factory explosion, whose purpose was to send these mutated monsters on their way.

Maybe even the opponent hadn’t expected that a monster would be left behind here.

And by a strange twist of fate, Liang Yu encountered it. Based on his first impression, Liang Yu felt that this monster had an extremely strong desire to attack.

At this moment, the monster exuded an evil aura. Its claws were incredibly sharp; if a normal person were attacked by its claws, they could basically be declared dead.

Just then, the monster stood up, smashed the nearby wall with a claw, and picked up a large handful of rubble, launching an area attack at Second Unit.

Seeing the opponent attack first, Liang Yu was fearless. He controlled Second Unit to instantly summon its Light Sword, and with agile movements, it dodged the falling stones.

Every time Second Unit tried to get close, the monster would destroy the wall and use the rubble to attack Second Unit, preventing its approach.

Second Unit also dodged the monster’s attacks repeatedly, constantly closing the distance between itself and the monster.

However, this monster was very intelligent. Seeing the Light Sword in Second Unit’s hand, the opponent clearly did not want to engage in close combat with Second Unit.

Liang Yu simply indulged the opponent, retracting the Light Sword from its hand. The next moment, the gun barrels on Second Unit’s two arms rose up.

While the opponent was still bewildered, a barrage of bullets had already covered the entire area where the monster was located.

The bullets struck the monster’s scales, constantly producing the sound of metal clashing.

The monster, under attack from the barrage, roared furiously. From its voice, it was clear that although the bullets didn’t pierce its armor, they still caused it pain.

The monster, which had been in a state of being continuously hit, suddenly curled its body into a spherical shape.
