Super Gene Hunting Ground

(Thanks to the book friend who discreetly gifted 10,000 Qidian Coins, adding one more chapter for him, thank you!)

Yang Xiao and Monk Ben Yin were sleeping in the cave when they heard the Giant Eagle’s cry, and almost simultaneously they both leapt up.

Yang Xiao, holding the Longsword, walked to the cave entrance to look around. The campfire at the entrance emitted a faint glow, but he saw nothing unusual, heard no movements, only the calling of some unknown insects, and the roars of some monsters in the distant mountains.

Yang Xiao stepped out of the cave and saw that the Giant Eagle was already standing up and alertly looking around.

Yang Xiao walked over and patted the Giant Eagle, saying:

”Is something wrong?”

The Giant Eagle nodded and then shook its head, as it was also unclear about what might have been approaching; when it opened its eyes, it had seen nothing.

Yang Xiao thought it might be some monsters in the wilderness moving around nearby, which was normal. He then said to the Giant Eagle:

”As long as the monsters don’t attack you, don’t leave here. If there’s an emergency, just call out loudly.”

While the Giant Eagle couldn’t speak, it nodded in understanding.

Since the desert, Yang Xiao had found he could communicate simply with the Giant Eagle, and it seemed that the Giant Eagle and the Flame Horse both understood what he said.

Originally spirit animals, the eagle and horse possessed even higher intelligence after the Genetic Evolution of the apocalypse, which wasn’t surprising.

Yang Xiao and Monk Ben Yin returned to the cave to continue sleeping.

Nothing happened overnight, and the next morning, the two lit the campfire, roasted some wild boar meat from the day before, ate their fill, and then continued moving forward along the valley.

Before leaving, Yang Xiao specially patted the Giant Eagle and said:

”Giant Eagle brother, take a good look at the surroundings and remember them, perhaps we will need to return here to spend the night.”

This area was at the boundary between the edge and the middle zone of Shenlongjia, surrounded by lower-level wild beasts, so spending the night here would be relatively safer.

Yang Xiao definitely didn’t want to camp in an area filled with Intermediate or High-Level Enhanced Gene monsters; they might not wake up the next day and end up inside a monster’s stomach.

The Giant Eagle let out a long cry, soared into the air and flew in a circle, seemingly memorizing the terrain features of the area.

A moment later, the Giant Eagle came flying back, taking the lead as Yang Xiao and Monk Ben Yin searched for Mutant Monsters in the valley. After about ten minutes, the two encountered a huge lizard.

Monk Ben Yin charged forward, using the Dragon Subduing and Elephant Taming move, releasing a powerful air wave with a punch that knocked the twenty-meter-long giant lizard over.

Since breaking through to the Enhanced Gene Stage, Monk Ben Yin’s Ancient Martial Arts power had greatly increased.

After unleashing two moves consecutively, the giant lizard lay on the ground, bleeding from the mouth and motionless.

The giant lizard burst out 8 Genetic Balls and one piece of Lizard Armor, which Yang Xiao picked up, collected the corpse, and continued forward.

...

After Yang Xiao left, a monster about 2 meters tall with black fur and a pair of big blue eyes, resembling a gorilla, quietly emerged from the distant forest and walked up to the cave where Yang Xiao had stayed the previous night.

The blue-eyed monster first looked inside the cave, saw nothing, and then squatted by the campfire outside the cave entrance, picking up a stick and lightly shifting the campfire.

Yang Xiao had just left and some unburnt firewood sparks were still in the campfire, which were now glowing red embers.

After seeing this, the blue-eyed monster was instantly delighted, chattering noisily.

It scanned around, collected some twigs from the nearby ground, broke them, and carefully covered them over the fire pit. It then lay down and gently blew on the burning embers with its mouth.

After a short while, the small flames slowly rose, the hot flames curling the monster’s long facial hair, seemingly unfazed as it carefully blew on the flames.

Finally, with a roar, the flames soared up, igniting the twigs above.

”Giggle giggle....”

The monster let out an excited cry.

The monster seemed to ponder for a moment, as if encountering some problem, then suddenly dashed away with incredible speed.

After half an hour, the monster returned holding a large porcelain basin, squatted beside the bonfire, and once again added some branches to the fire, then placed some burning branches into the large porcelain basin.

The porcelain basin was filled with burning branches, emitting faint flames.

The monster made a simple handle frame with branches and placed the basin in it, then carefully carried the porcelain basin away.

This time, the monster did not dare to run freely, fearing that he might tip over the basin in his hands, so he could only trot slowly.

After running for a while, whenever the monster saw the flames in the basin reducing, he would stop, break off a few branches from nearby trees, place them in the basin, wait for the branches to catch fire, and then continue trotting.

After repeating this several times for over an hour, the monster arrived at a valley and shouted excitedly:

”Fire, fire, fire...”

Soon, several small monsters about one meter tall ran out of the valley upon seeing the fire basin in the monster’s hands, immediately joining in the excited shouting.

”Fire, fire, fire, we have fire now, we can roast meat, yo!”

Quickly, from several caves in the valley, dozens of adult monsters ran out, both men and women, none of them were clothed, only simply covering their lower halves with beast skins to hide their private parts.

They saw the fire basin in the monster’s hands and immediately became excited, shouting loudly.

”Fire, finally we have fire!”

One of the older monsters said:

”Ah Yong, where were you last night? You didn’t come back.”

The monster referred to as Ah Yong laughed and replied:

”Ah pa, I went to find fire!”

Saying this, he excitedly raised the fire basin in his hand.

Ah Yong carefully carried the fire basin to a nearby natural cave, and soon everyone brought many branches.

Ah Yong first continued to cover the porcelain basin with small branches, and only after the branches on the basin started burning, did he ignite a pile of branches inside the cave. Moments later, a huge fire blazed inside the cave, with dozens of men, women, and children inside, all screaming excitedly.

The old monster suddenly knelt on the ground, and Ah Yong and the other monsters also immediately knelt down around the fire, bowing their heads.

”Thank the spirits for their blessing, thank the Fire God for his blessing!”

”Thank the spirits for their blessing, thank the Fire God for his blessing!”

.....

Then, everyone stood up, and the old monster pointed to a small monster and said:

”You, Ah Mu, from now on, you are responsible for guarding the Fire God, it must not be extinguished, otherwise, you will be severely punished!”

The small monster named Ah Mu immediately said excitedly:

”Yes!”

The old monster then pointed to Ah Yong and said:

”Ah Yong brought back the Fire God, a meritorious service, reward,”

Then, pointing at a female monster, he said:

”She, belongs to you now!”

Ah Yong looked at the female monster and a lovesick smile appeared on his face.

If Yang Xiao could see all this, his jaw would definitely drop.

Damn, Shenlongjia really has savages!
