The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 311
Chapter 311 Qilin Narration
The unknown is the source of human fear.
Humans had directly encircled the Yunnan-Guizhou region and the western Tibet region into a secret realm. From the sky, they could see that the Infinite Mountain Range region and the Five Lotus Region were the most densely populated with arachnids.
Therefore, humans called these two places, the two great secret realms, the Immeasurable Secret Realm and the Five Lotus Secret Realm.
This was only the Zerg Clan’s secret realm, and the mysterious Four Seas naturally surrounded the four seas of China: Bo, Huang, Dong, and Nan.
In fact, before the apocalypse, humans were not able to completely conquer the sea, because the sea was too mysterious, too vast, and no one knew what was hidden here.
Dark energy was ubiquitous. Humans and mutated beasts were all affected by this dark matter energy, mutated and evolved. Could the creatures in the sea not be affected by it?
Of course, this was impossible. Marine life was bound to be affected as well. However, how many creatures were there in the sea?
Earth’s total surface area, 511 million square kilometers.
Earth’s land area, 149 million square kilometers, or about 29 per cent of the Earth’s surface area, and its oceans, 362 million square kilometers, or about 71 per cent of the Earth’s surface area.
Of course, this was the proportion of land and sea before the apocalypse. After the apocalypse, volcanic earthquakes occurred frequently, and the continental plates moved on a small scale. However, apart from some effects on the topography, it should have little effect on the proportion of land and sea.
No one knows how many mutated fish there will be in 71 percent of the ocean, but it is certain that the numbers will be terrifying.
From the looks of it, an area within ten kilometers of the seaside was already considered a forbidden area for humans. Countless mutated crabs of various types were running rampant there, and there were no lack of high-grade mutated crabs among them.
This crab was a hard shell before the end of the world. After mutating, this shell would naturally become harder and more difficult to deal with.
The Corpse Race’s Three Regions, the Beast Race’s Seven Ridges, the Insect Race’s Secret Realm, and the mysterious Four Seas were the four great races that compressed the space of human existence, threatening the continuation of humanity at all times.
Of course, this was only the situation in China. No one knew what was happening in other countries.
However, even China was like this. Thinking about it, the situation in other countries and China was not much better, or even worse.
It was said that the Japanese Empire was facing the sea in all four directions, and had almost completely disappeared.
Gao Li, Bang Zi Guo, and the others who were facing the sea had already been nearly wiped out by the sea beasts.
Rumor has it that only a small number of survivors are still hiding in the interior and fleeing towards the interior of China.
In the coastal kingdom, while being attacked by corpses, beasts, and arachnids, they would also be attacked by sea creatures and mutated sea beasts. The result could be imagined.
As for the landlocked countries, they were attacked by the Corpse Race, Beast Race, Arachnid Race, and the other three races. However, in the past two months, it seemed that the three races had fallen into a truce.
The Corpse Race, the Orc Race, and a small number of the Arachnid Race that used to harass him had disappeared.
However, their disappearance had not only brought peace to mankind for more than two months, but had also laid some of the root causes of their rapid development.
With the rapid development of the human race, they had a solid city, a powerful evolver tribe, and a variety of self-sufficient industrial chains.
The Corpse Race shrank, and the Beast Race did not come out. The relationship between the ten large cities, which were originally not peaceful, began to subtle.
In fact, he was born in an apocalyptic world and possessed incomparably powerful power. The masters of certain cities, especially the powerful old men behind the various clans, were extremely powerful.
On the night of December 31, 2030, in Qilin City, the City Lord’s Mansion, in the living room of the banquet.
In the banquet hall, lights flashed. There were at least dozens of men and women inside. They seemed to be the upper echelons of Qilin City, entertaining some distinguished guests.
This banquet hall was the highest-grade banquet hall in the City Lord’s Mansion, and its furnishings and style were quite ancient.
It wasn’t the kind of round table that existed before the apocalypse. In this banquet hall, including the main table, there were nine horizontal tables.
The main seat was right in front of him, and the rest of the pendulum had four seats on each side. The seats were made of unknown wooden materials and were extremely exquisite.
Cao Xuefeng was dressed in a decent golden armor embroidered with golden Qilin Beasts, giving him a bit of dignity.
At this moment, he was sitting in the main seat. On his left and right, there was a beautiful woman dressed in sexy clothes.
The one on the left was gorgeous, and the one on the right was pure and beautiful. Both of them were young, one on the left and one on the right, serving the young city lord of Qilin City.
Beneath their tables, there were four people on each side. Clearly, it was the Young City Master of Qilin City who was entertaining the distinguished guests.
As for the so-called VIPs, they were all males. There were a total of eight people, each with a table. Each of them was accompanied by a young woman serving from the side.
Cao Xuefeng raised his right arm, picked up his wine glass, and said with a smile, “Welcome to the four distinguished guests from the Blood Realm, as well as the four distinguished guests from Baize City.”
Below Cao Xuefeng, on the left, a handsome young man in white armor raised his glass and saluted, “Brother Cao, you and I have already formed an alliance. If there is anything you want, just say it and send someone to invite us. I am truly flattered.”
This young man was handsome and elegant, and his entire body was filled with scholarly righteousness. Looking at the Sheep-headed Lion on his white armor, it was obvious that he was from Baize City.
When he raised his glass, everyone on the four tables on the left raised their glasses. Obviously, he was the main one on the left.
Hearing his words, the young man on the right also raised his cup and said, “Thank goodness that Brother Cao thinks highly of me, Liu. Little brother, let’s do it as a toast first.”
After he finished speaking, he stood up quite formally and raised his wine glass with some excitement. Then, he raised both his hands without hesitation and poured it into his mouth.
Seeing him like this, the three people standing behind him all stood up and raised their wine glasses, saying, “Thank you, Young City Lord!” With that, he placed his hands on his chest, filled a glass of wine, and poured it into his mouth.
“Haha …! Brother Liu is too polite, Brother Yang, please clear it …!” After saying that, Cao Xuefeng also smiled heartily. He unequivocally held his hands and drank the first cup of wine.
Brother Yang, the Righteous Qi Scholar, stood up with the three tribesmen, raised his glass, and drank the first cup of wine.
The few of them sat down again and put down the cups in their hands. The maids serving beside them immediately picked up the wine jug at one side and poured them another full glass of wine.
Cao Xuefeng always had a smile on his face, chatting and laughing humorously. He even kept explaining what was extraordinary about this table full of dishes.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes, Cao Xuefeng said with a hint of drunkenness, “Shi Xiong, how are you doing in White Cloud City?”
On his right hand, the so-called hero’s eyes flashed with a few strange lights. Then, he carried a glass of wine with him and drank a cup of wine alone. Then, he buzzed, “What can I do? That’s it!”
Then, this fellow smiled self-deprecatingly and sighed with some unwillingness, “White Cloud City, surnamed Wang, not surnamed Liu.”
The so-called Righteous Qi Scholar on the left, Brother Yang, was also the Young City Master of Baize City-Yang Tianzong. After hearing this, he was filled with righteous indignation, “What? How could this be? I heard that Uncle Liu is the hero who guarded Shanghai until the end.”
“How could that be? How could it be? No matter what, you should still be a Young City Lord. Uncle Wang has gone too far this time, right?”
“Haha …! Young City Lord? Stop laughing, I’m only the leader of a small team now.” Liu Shixiong said excitedly.
His complexion was slightly red, but in a short moment, he restrained his expression and said, “But that’s good, I’m at ease.”
“Uncle Wang said that after a while, send me to Heavenly Rock Academy. After I return from my studies, I will be in charge of White Cloud City.”
When Cao Xuefeng heard this, he scoffed, “Brother Shi Xiong, do you believe Wang Rui’s words?”
“The rumors are true. Looks like that old fellow is really hugging the thick thigh of the Rock King. However, don’t blame your brother for not reminding us. Wang Rui, that fellow, is very deep in the city.”
“I’ve heard of him. In front of the masses in Shanghai, he is always advocating that the Wang Clan will definitely defend and withdraw from Shanghai.”
“However, in the end? Your old Liu Clan lost all their elites? The Wang Clan has been preserved incomparably intact, and that Wang Rui has earned a good reputation.”
“Although your father is also a hero, even a fool can see the difference between a dead hero and a living one.”
“In this regard, the Wang Clan is not as good as our Cao Clan and Yang Clan.”
“If we want to retreat, then retreat. Even if we bear the blame and retreat, at least we can be considered honest.”
Liu Shixiong was drinking when he almost choked when he heard this.
“Cough cough …!”
After coughing twice, Liu Shixiong blushed and said, “Then what? Young City Lord Cao, I wonder why you’re looking for me this time?”
Cao Xuefeng smiled and said, “What’s wrong? Brother Shi Xiong, at least we grew up in the same military courtyard.”
“This Young City Lord or something, isn’t that too ridiculous? After hiding in the south, he doesn’t recognize us old brothers.”
Yang Tianzong also echoed, “Yes, Shi Xiong, it’s a bit too much for you to say that about us two.”
“I don’t mind. After Brother Xue Feng heard that you were here on a mission, he told me to definitely find out about you. I invited you here and gathered you together.”
“If you say that, then…”
“Then I’m sorry, Brother Xue Feng! Little brother, thank you for your kindness. Cheers!” Liu Shixiong interrupted Yang Tianzong and raised his glass to drink.
Cao Xuefeng was still unequivocal, and he also drank it all in one gulp. Then, he said with a bit of heroism, “Mm, I’m still the old brother that I’m familiar with. Since you said that, I really have something to ask of you.”
Liu Shixiong wasn’t the slightest bit surprised. He sneered in his heart. Everyone had been playing since childhood. Who didn’t know who Cao Xuefeng was? If nothing happened, he would look for him to catch up with the past?
“Brother Xue Feng, are you kidding me? Me? Help you?”
Liu Shixiong shook his head like a rattle drum and continued, “You famous Golden Monarch Qilin, the Young City Lord of Qilin City.”
“Something that even you can’t do, do you need help? What can I do for you? No, no, why do you need my help…?”
