Chapter 937: 937
This time, none of Huaxia Base and its allies attained anything . Huaxia Base lost face while Sky Fire Base and Mongols Base went home empty handed . Unlike those bases, Heilong Base left in the middle of the plan and brought home a batch of food, becoming the biggest winner . That was only a small batch of food, but at least Heilong Base people wouldn’t need to worry about food for the next two to three months .

“Things have already ended up like this . We should get back and make some further plans . But now, the most pressing problem is the food crisis in our bases . Sea City Base refused to make any deals with you again, but they are still willing to trade with us . Would you like our help?” Li Zhengye said with a smile .
Wei Haichao looked at him with narrowing eyes and sneered in his head, but responded with a smile, “Not for now . We still have some food in stock . We will not forget about your base when we really need help . Perhaps, we’ll develop the soil remedy before that . ”
Li Zhengye nodded and said, “Good then . I’m not joining you for the journey back, as I have some other work to do . We should say goodbye here . I’ll see you around . ”
“See you,” Wei Haichao responded quickly .
After saying goodbye to the Huaxia Base people, Li Zhengye and his people took a detour toward All Beings Base .
“This base is doing good now . Sea City Base let it grow like this . I have even started to think that this base is built secretly by Sea City Base as its subsidiary base . Currently, a lot of survivors from Hidden Cloud City Base and Earth Dragon Base have been joining Sea City Base and All Beings Base . The All Beings Base must be stronger than it looks, or it wouldn’t be able to take in so many people . ” Li Zhengye had his eyes on All Beings Base since long ago . He had sent many people to the base to gather information, but no useful information was found . Even Gu Yikang had disappeared after arriving near that base .

“This All Beings Base is a little weird . Some of our people have gotten in, but they don’t dare to make any obvious move yet . Not long ago, they dealt with a group of people who attempted to cause trouble in the base . I told our people not to do anything and settle down first,” Li Zhengye’s assistant looked at him and said .
Recently, a large number of people had joined All Beings Base, so it was easy for their people to make a way into the base . But after that, All Beings Base people would check their backgrounds . Therefore, to avoid catching attention, Li Zhengye’s assistant ordered his people to stop gathering information .
“Be patient . A watched pot never boils . It’s already great that they made their way in . Tell them not to do anything for the time being,” Li Zhengye gave a small smile . Apparently, he approved what his assistant did . “The leaders of All Beings Base aren’t stupid . They are certainly having their eyes on the new residents in their base . Our people would surely expose themselves if they caused trouble once they got in . ”
The assistant nodded in response .
At that moment, Yuan Tianxing, Lin Feng, and some others were having a meeting in All Beings Base . Xie Dong had turned and told them about Lin Qiao’s situation . As a result, the base was left under their management temporarily .
Lin Feng returned to the base not long ago . He ran into Lin Hao in the medical department and learned that Lin Qiao was gone missing . Now, knowing that she was fine, he was finally relieved . As for why she suddenly went to Sea City Base, he didn’t think much about that .

He was never able to figure out what she was thinking anyway . He only needed her to be okay .
“Those creatures are afraid of the sunlight . They don’t come out during the daytime, and only leave their nest to search for food at night . They don’t have superpowers, but they are especially strong . Their mutations are the same as the animals on the ground, but a level-one underground beast can bite a level-two beast on the ground straight to death, and has a chance to break even with a level-three one . More importantly, they are able to boost their strength without losing control of themselves,” Lin Feng shared what he found out about those underground creatures with a serious look .
The last part of his information surprised Yuan Tianxing . “Are you saying that they can go crazy at any time they want, without losing their mind?”
Lin Feng nodded and said expressionlessly, “That’s why a level-one underground beast has a chance of winning against a level-three beast on the ground, no matter how large its opponent is . Those creatures look like gorillas without hair . Their bodies are covered by a cuticle-like skin . They are muscular and very strong . Their claws are sharp, and can cut iron as easily as cutting butter . They have strong teeth too, even stronger than the teeth of those mutated rats . But, they don’t have eyes . They detect the surrounding environment with their noses, ears, or some other organs . ”
Yuan Tianxing pictured an extremely ugly, eye-less creature in his head based on Lin Feng’s description .
“Every night, they’ll swarm out to find food and crawl back into the underground cave before dawn . They like eating living animals . They usually hunt for mutated animals at night . They won’t eat their prey on the ground . They always bring them back into the underground cave,” said Lin Feng .

Yuan Tianxing furrowed his brows and asked a question, “How large is their scope of activity?”
Lin Feng responded, “They will choose a different direction to go every night . For now, they go no more than one mile away from their nest . Wherever they reach, all living creatures are caught by them, and not one can get away . Their sensations are very sharp . Not even the birds on the trees can fly away from them . ”
In the areas visited by those underground gorillas, no survivor was found .
Yuan Tianxing looked at Lin Feng and asked, “How did you observe them then? Didn’t they discover you?”
Lin Feng shook his head and said, “My men and I didn’t approach them . Three and Four did that . ”
Three and Four were zombies, so those underground creatures ignored them completely . They had no interest in zombies at all .
Yuan Tianxing nodded knowingly and said, “Ah, I see . What is the highest level of those creatures?”
Lin Feng stayed silent for a few seconds, then said with a deep voice, “Seven . During the time we were observing them, more than one level-seven members led the group every night . They take turns to come out . Every two or three days, they’ll switch to a new batch of members to come out . ”
Yuan Tianxing slightly widened his eyes and said with disbelief, “Are you saying that we don’t know how many of them are at level-seven?”
Level-seven mutated beasts were no longer rare, but still not seen everywhere . Level-seven mutated beasts were highly territorial . Normally, two level-seven beasts couldn’t possibly act together, not even of the same kind .
If more than two level-seven beasts were seen together, it would mean one thing—there was a level-eight being controlling them .
“I’ve seen more than twenty of them . Those level-seven creatures can be as strong as a level-eight mutated beast when they boost their strength up,” Lin Feng said, then gave a long sigh .
