Chapter 731: Chapter 444: Titanium Cobalt Magnet Body
Silent Wilderness Western Outpost.
In an open-plan restaurant, over twenty hunters were drinking and chatting, exchanging information. Most of them had formed teams, but there were also Solo Hunters eating quietly by themselves.
"Ladies and gentlemen!"
A tall and burly man stood up, his loud voice capturing everyone’s attention, "Have you noticed that hunting in the Silent Wilderness has become increasingly difficult recently, with the harvests getting scarcer?"
There was silence in the restaurant for a few seconds before someone replied, "We have too."
"Exactly!"
The leader of another team stood up; he was a Mutant, speaking gravely, "We sensed something was off last month."
The Mutant scanned the room, "Before, my team would kill at least five Earth Devouring Worms a day, but after entering the Crying Moon, it dropped to three, and now we’re lucky to get two a day."
The crowd nodded in agreement, "Our team is experiencing something similar."
"Could there be some abnormality with the Earth Devouring Worm population again?" someone speculated.
A couple of months earlier, due to the news of an Earthquake Level Earth Devouring Worm, the Silent Wilderness had been bustling for a while, but after that creature wasn’t reported to be hunted, and it had not appeared since, the hunters gradually dispersed.
"What change could there be with those monster bugs? They have mutated for so many years, their genes have long since stabilized." The Mutant dismissed the speculation.
"Indeed."
"But I find that Earth Devouring Worms are harder to lure now, I thought they’ve become smarter and saw through my baiting tactics."
"It might just be plain bad luck, fluctuations in hunting yields are quite normal."
The hunters buzzed with various discussions.
The man who first brought up the topic suddenly raised his voice, "Did none of you consider a possibility? The reason is actually very simple, there are fewer Earth Devouring Worms."
"Hahaha..." A burst of laughter erupted in the restaurant.
"How could that be possible?"
"Wei Chuan, have you lost your mind?" Someone who knew the man called out loudly, "The Earth Devouring Worms in the Silent Wilderness are more numerous than the hairs on your body; they hide underground, and no one knows exactly how many there are. After hunting for hundreds of seasons, there has never been any sign of their numbers dwindling."
"The numbers might not have diminished before, but now, it’s not so certain."
Wei Chuan insisted on his point of view.
He explained, "My guess is that a super hunter has arrived in the Silent Wilderness, hunting Earth Devouring Worms with exceptional efficiency."
"Have you seen him?" someone asked.
"No."
The people looked at each other, shaking their heads to indicate they hadn’t encountered any super hunter.
"Wei Chuan, you must be mistaken." someone countered, "If there really had been someone who killed that many Earth Devouring Worms, why haven’t the prices of Alien Species on the market fallen, instead they have risen?"
Wei Chuan opened his mouth but could not respond.
That was also something he couldn’t figure out.
Whoever hunts monsters has only one goal: to collect Alien Species to sell for money. With so many Earth Devouring Worms being killed, the related Alien Species market prices haven’t fluctuated, unless the Alien Species were taken to very distant markets to sell.
But a Mutant capable of doing this would either have to be an unparalleled powerhouse or be in possession of a large team.
In either case, such an entity would not be interested in the profits from hunting Earth Devouring Worms.
The hunters debated endlessly without reaching a conclusion.
A moment later.
Just as interest in the topic was waning, and no one wanted to discuss it further, someone stood up in the restaurant and walked out.
The restaurant suddenly fell silent.
The people watched the person’s retreating back, exchanging silent glances, no one daring to make any comments.
For that was a True Dragon person.
On Black Ring Star, it was rare to see True Dragon hunters, but they occasionally appeared.
From this True Dragon person’s gear, appearance, and aura, one could tell he was no ordinary True Dragon person. Hunters who lived by the edge of a knife knew better than to mess with him, no matter that he was a Solo Hunter.
In fact, every hunter present had been covertly paying attention to this True Dragon person; now that he was leaving, they all felt a sense of relief. f\ree webn ovel(.)com
Not until his figure had completely vanished did the restaurant return to its usual liveliness.
Wei Chuan’s eyes held a thoughtful look.
He whispered, "Does anyone know him?"
The hunters in the restaurant shook their heads, except for the Mutant captain who hesitated before speaking uncertainly, "If I’m not mistaken, he should be Annihilation Jin, the rising star."
"Annihilation Jin!"
At the mention of this name, the crowd was abuzz as if a bomb had been dropped.
Even those who hadn’t heard the name were intimidated by the surname, this implied the True Dragon person they saw just now owned an Annihilation Dragon!
"What is an Annihilation Dragon Lord doing on Black Ring Star?"
"No wonder..."
"He is the Terminator of the Destructive Dragon Festival, his strength is too terrifying! No wonder I felt so oppressed while he was here. Even though he bore me no ill will, ah, when will I ever reach that level?"
"Dream on, there’s everything you want in dreams."
The hunters’ conversation shifted to Annihilation Jin, but no one connected him with the unusual situation of the Earth Devouring Worms.
Wei Chuan, who still harbored some doubts, dismissed them after learning the True Dragon person was Annihilation Jin.
With the power and status of Annihilation Jin, why would he bother hunting Earth Devouring Worms?
However, sometimes, the most unlikely scenario is the truth!
Ji Xinghuo moved through the Western Outpost, replenishing some food and supplies. Although he himself needed very little, there was Qing Hong, that big eater, and recently, Doomsday had joined them in consuming food, significantly increasing their food consumption.
