Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating Chapter 181 – 181 Help From The Military Zone, Du Feng's Ambition!

181 Help From The Military Zone, Du Feng's Ambition!

“Dojo Master Lu, how come you are here? How… how did we end up here?” Zhang Yu asked with a puzzled expression.

He remembered that he went to look for Zhang Huaian through the underground darkness, but was swept away by a violent whirlpool and ended up in Lake Ice Abyss. There he found the unconscious Zhang Huaian, as well as a terrifying S-class Fearsome Beast.

Fortunately, that S-class Fearsome Beast could not be bothered with them. Zhang Yu racked his brains over how to get out of their predicament, but then they were suddenly sucked down by a spring source at the bottom of the lake.

Thereafter, he became unconscious. Until now in their present situation, the father and son found themselves inexplicably breaking through. They were at first overjoyed, and then, became increasingly stupefied.

If the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon in the interspatial ring were a human, he would have a dumbstruck expression on his face right now. These two humans were simply too lucky. Not only did they not die, but they had also achieved breakthroughs.

“The two of you are really lucky,” Lu Yu said with a laugh. “So be it. This is also your fate. It means that you deserve it.”

He felt that they should not stay in this place for a long time. They had to locate the exit quickly and leave. Lunan City was still in danger, and waiting for people to save it.

At this moment, outside the blood-sucking wasteland.

The First Military Unit of the Gamma Military Zone turned up in full force. Thousands of well-trained soldiers poured into Lunan City. Every one of them had been honed by battle fire and they possessed incredibly excellent combat skills.

The attacking Fearsome Beasts were repelled instantly. Wang Lu looked at the more than twenty seemingly insane S-class Fearsome Beasts fighting desperately, and then looked at the broken walls of Lunan City as well as the dead bodies of the 4th Battalion strewn across the plains.

“Good day, General!” Niu Xianzu and Li Tieniu saluted him.

“How are the casualties, and where did Lu Yu go?” Wang Lu bellowed out when he did not see any sign of Lu Yu.

“351 dead and 130 injured in the 4th Battalion. Fortunately, we did not fail the mission and managed to preserve Lunan City.” Niu Xianzu reported. After hesitating a moment, he added, “As for Captain Lu, he went deep into the blood-sucking wasteland.”

“Outrageous!” Wang Lu cursed out loud. He immediately realized that the Fearsome Beasts had not been completely eliminated, and ordered, “The 1st Battalion, the 2nd Battalion and the 5th Battalion are to take over from the 4th Battalion. Continue to eliminate the Fearsome Beasts. The 3rd and 6th Battalions, go into the blood-sucking wasteland to rescue people!”

“Yes, Sir!” The various battalion captains responded in unison.

Wang Lu did a head count of all the battalion captains, but when he discovered that the captain of the 2nd Battalion was missing, he was very puzzled. The other battalion captains saw his expression turned menacing and they all kept their heads lowered in silence.

“Where's Du Feng?” Wang Lu barked out in a deep voice.

The deputy captain of the 2nd Battalion hurriedly explained, “Captain Du said he had to attend to some matters and left the battalion temporarily.”

Wang Lu's face completely darkened. He bellowed furiously, “He is a battalion captain, yet he acted so recklessly. I will discipline him immediately when we go back!”

Wang Lu had to temporarily suppress his anger and go to the blood-sucking wasteland first to rescue Lu Yu. Not surprisingly, he ran into Qin Yong waiting outside. Qin Yong was Lu Yu's right-hand man, so Wang Lu had some impression of him.

As soon as Qin Yong saw Wang Lu, he first gave a military salute and quickly reported the situation at this point.

Looking at the spreading poisonous gas, Wang Lu's expression became more and more grim. He had initially thought that the Fearsome Beasts' attack on the city was the biggest problem. To his surprise, he realized now that this poisonous gas was the real disaster. Once it reached Lunan City, the whole city would become a poison city.

“The most important task right now is to control the spread of the poisonous gas. I will hand this task to you, Captain of the 3rd Battalion,” Wang Lu said.

“That won't be necessary. Two seniors have already ventured into the blood-sucking wasteland to take control of the poisonous gas. She has instructed that when our people come, we just need to set up the isolation zone,” Qin Yong said.

True enough, right at this moment, a ray of moonlight shot out, radiating from the heart of the blood-sucking wasteland. The poisonous gas then converged toward the moonlight and was instantly purified before dissipating into the air.

And as they listened to Qin Yong's report, the various battalion captains of the First Military Unit looked quite shocked. In particular, when they heard that Du Feng was the culprit responsible for this attack on the city by the Fearsome Beasts, as well as releasing the poisonous gas into the blood-sucking wasteland, they were flabbergasted.

Furthermore, when they heard that Du Feng was able to control the SS-class Fearsome Beast responsible for releasing the poisonous gas deep in the blood-sucking wasteland, they couldn't believe their ears.

“This moonlight radiance, could it be…” Wang Lu was still in shock as he gazed upon the scene of the moonlight radiance purifying the poisonous gas. He looked up at the moonlight radiance bursting out and had a vague guess. “Could it be that she had come to Lunan City?”

“General Wang, that guy Du Feng may well be this whole incident's perpetrator,” one of the battalion captains said.

“Got it. I say, Yuan Jie, don't report everything to me. You have to think on your own feet too.” Wang Lu was still speculating about the moonlight radiance and waved his hand impatiently. Then he suddenly froze. “What… what did you just say?”

“I said, Du Feng might be the perpetrator of this incident.” Yuan Jie pressed ahead and repeated what Qin Yong reported one more time.

“What?” Finally, Wang Lu's expression changed drastically. “You mean, Du Feng is behind all this?”

Initially, in Wang Lu's opinion, this was only Qin Yong's side of the story, but as soon as he thought of Du Feng's earlier departure from the team without approval, the whole incident took on a different flavor all of a sudden.

It could well be that Du Feng was afraid that he might get exposed and he fled to escape his crime!

“Locate this bastard immediately at all costs. Right now! If it's true, I have to kill him myself!” Wang Lu was like an angry lion. His hair and beard were bristling wildly and he had a murderous look in his eyes.

This time, Du Feng came together with them in this operation. Even if he deserted the team halfway, he was still in the jurisdiction areas under the Gamma Military Zone. There were still ways to locate him.

Just as Wang Lu ordered some of his men to go look for Du Feng immediately, Du Feng, who was the mastermind behind the scenes, had appeared in the inner depths of the blood-sucking wasteland at some point.

The terrifying poisonous gas covered his entire body, but he was unaffected and totally unharmed.

As the controller, even if his control of that SS-class Fearsome Beast was reduced, as long as the imprint of control was still there, Du Feng would be part of that parent body and therefore would not be affected by the poisonous gas.

“Haha! General Wang, you probably didn't realize that I have already appeared here. Even if you knew that, it would be futile.” Du Feng, who was walking in the poisonous gas, said with a scornful laugh.

The most dangerous places were often the safest, which was why he dared to come into the blood-sucking wasteland.

From the moment he lost contact with that man with the protruding mouth and sallow cheeks who was sent to murder Lu Yu, he had become aware and was always prepared for the day when he would get exposed, and how he could leave the Gamma Military Zone safely.

Du Feng's eyes became more sinister. He said with a touch of madness, “Hoho! You all don't understand. I am reinventing, creating another completely viable cultivation path. As long as I succeed, then I am bringing benefits to the entire human race. I will become a hero!”

“And you guys, will be recorded down in the annals of history as the fools, the blind.”
