Infinite Survival: I Can Plunder Passive Skills Chapter 165 – Calamity Grade Monster

Chapter 165: Calamity Grade Monster
Using the access pass, Zhou Chen took a flying car to the outside of the city, which was the wasteland.

Lucy also followed and said that she wanted to train with him.

The reason why Zhou Chen chose to cultivate in the wasteland where monsters roamed was because the release of the Eight Desolates True Energy would damage his surroundings. Moreover, the destructive power and range of it would increase with the increase of his strength, so it was not suitable to train in the city.

The flying car arrived above the wasteland. Zhou Chen and Lucy jumped off the car.

Zhou Chen randomly found an empty area and began to practice the basic moves of the Eight Desolates Coiling Dragon Supreme Art. He circulated his Eight Desolates True Energy according to the instructions on the jade slip over and over again, occasionally striking a palm or fist nearby to test it.

Lucy did not disturb Zhou Chen's training. She kept a distance from Zhou Chen and imitated his movements. She also attacked the surroundings like Zhou Chen did, but the outcome was completely different. Her attacks were only superficial, while every move of Zhou Chen's had extraordinary power. Occasionally, monsters would wander over and be killed by Zhou Chen in one strike.

After a while, Lucy stopped imitating Zhou Chen. She began to play freely in the area, occasionally taking out a pistol to kill the monsters nearby.

Night fell, but Zhou Chen was not prepared to return. He planned to train all night.

“Lucy, it's getting dark. You should go back first.”

Zhou Chen felt that Lucy had come out with him to play and take a breather. Now that she had played for so long, it was time for her to return.

“Alright, Captain. I have a module to update when I go back.” Lucy was clearly tired from playing and agreed to Zhou Chen's arrangements.

Soon, Zhou Chen arranged a flying car for her through his access card and told her to go back first. He planned to return tomorrow after training for the entire night.

A short while later, the flying car arrived at the appointed time. Lucy climbed to the car through the hanging ladder. At this time, the access pass in Zhou Chen's pocket rang with Teresa's voice, “Li, please return to the headquarters quickly. There's an emergency.”

“What emergency?”

“We will talk about it once you arrive. Please hurry.” Teresa did not reply to him in detail and hung up the call.

“Did something really happen?” Zhou Chen felt it was strange. He decisively jumped on the flying car and began to return to Paradise City.

Before long, he and Lucy arrived at the entrance of the exploration team building.

Lucy quickly bid him farewell and went about her day. He went inside the building and entered the office that he had previously visited.

Apart from Teresa and the old man, there were several other people in the office. There were men and women, and they were all middle-aged. They were surrounding a computer and watching something with grim expressions.

“What happened?” Zhou Chen walked over and asked Teresa.

Teresa immediately turned to him and said worriedly, “Our drone has discovered that a Calamity Grade monster has escaped the severe pollution area and is moving in this direction.”

This was the first time Zhou Chen had seen worry on her face, making him realize the seriousness of the situation.

“Calamity Grade monster? Are they very strong? Can't firearms deal with them?” Zhou Chen asked her. He did not know much about this and could only speculate based on their reaction.

Zhou Chen knew that they had many powerful weapons. Something that could make them feel so troubled was definitely an existence that ordinary firearms could not deal with.

“It's difficult,” Teresa nodded.

“Calamity Grade monsters have abilities similar to us mutants. They are not afraid of ordinary firearms and can resist powerful explosives. Some of them can't even be damaged by nuclear bombs. Wherever they go, they will leave behind strong pollution. Ordinary people will die or mutate if they run into them, and we mutants also cannot be in close contact with them for too long.”

Teresa introduced the characteristics of Calamity Grade monsters to Zhou Chen.

“So troublesome? Then what are you planning to do?” Zhou Chen knew that he definitely could not deal with an existence that could withstand a nuclear bomb.

Teresa did not answer his question immediately. Instead, she continued to introduce the characteristics of the Calamity Grade monsters, “According to the information we gathered, Calamity Grade monsters seem to be interested in mutants. They will target the mutants first if they appear in the surroundings. Therefore, I want to go with you to try and attract its attention from afar and change its trajectory.”

“This sounds very dangerous.” Zhou Chen felt that this plan was not very reliable. Using himself as a bait to attract an invincible monster was the path to death.

“That's true…” Teresa did not deny Zhou Chen's judgment. “But other than this, there's no other way to save this city. That monster will probably reach this area tomorrow morning. Even if we start evacuating, there is not enough time. A large number of supplies can't be transported in such short notice, and people will be in a difficult situation after losing the existing means of production. Moreover, where to evacuate is another problem. This is the only area with relatively mild pollution around here. If we forcibly evacuate, it will cause a large number of people to come into contact with the pollution.”

Then, she said to Zhou Chen, “I know this plan is very dangerous, so I can understand if you're unwilling.”

“If I don't go, will you carry out this plan alone?” Zhou Chen asked.

“Yes. If I am alone, I would be less attractive to that monster, but it might still work,” Teresa replied without hesitation.

“Do you really love Paradise City so much that you don't even care about your life?” Zhou Chen felt that this woman's mental state was not ordinary.

“Nothing so great,” Teresa shook her head. “I just want to do my best to protect this city. After all, this is where I grew up. If things are really irreversible, I will not sacrifice myself in vain.”

She then looked at Zhou Chen, “As long as you help, as the reward for this mission, Paradise City can satisfy any one request of yours. What's your decision?”

“I can't really decide because I haven't seen that monster with my own eyes,” Zhou Chen thought for a moment and replied. “However, I'm inclined to abandon this plan because it sounds too dangerous.”

After seeing the true dragon in the White Jade Capital last time, Zhou Chen felt that he had become a little cowardly because he had seen how powerful it was. But because of that, he knew that there were some forces in the dungeon world that he had to revere, at least before he was strong enough..
