I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart Chapter 287 - Rodent Infestation—Catastrophe Level (Low)

Chapter 287: Rodent Infestation—Catastrophe Level (Low)

The integration of the Golden Warlion and holy garment would not hinder Lin Yao’s body. He could still merge with his other dependents. After the double integration, Lin Yao’s strength increased sharply again. He would not have the slightest fear even if a gold-level beast were to appear in front of him now.

“With so many energy dependents, I can do what I want.”

After exclaiming with a smile, Lin Yao also began to study the changes that occurred after his body merged with the golden cicada.

‘The increase in my physical strength is almost negligible, but my mental strength has increased greatly. Now, it has reached 800.’

Lin Yao’s original mental strength scale was 300 (it had increased once more when he had cultivated the radiation version of the Heaven and Earth Furnace). Although the golden cicada didn’t have a physical body, it was an expert in the mental aspect. At the peak silver level, its mental strength scale was at least 500. When Lin Yao’s body merged with it, his mental strength reached 800.

The large increase in mental strength had its advantages. First, Lin Yao was no longer suffering from a headache. Electromagnetic Induction had mapped the information within a radius of 3,000 meters into Lin Yao’s mind, and this was instantly processed by him and the golden cicada.

Second, the increased mental strength made it much easier for Lin Yao to control energy. At the very least, he was able to direct the Lion King Armor with ease now.

Third, the three abilities, Cicada Chirp—Clear Sound, Cicada Chirp—Demonic Sound, and Cicada Perception—Sensing Autumn Before It Approaches, had turned into Lin Yao’s instincts. It was no longer the same as it used to be in the past, when the golden cicada would alert Lin Yao after sensing danger.

‘I was right to integrate the golden cicada. After merging our minds, I am able to control the Lion King Armor perfectly. I am now considered a complete gold warlord and will be able to gain a foothold in this world in crisis!’

Lin Yao was not flying at a fast pace as he was researching and testing out his abilities. As he had merged with the golden cicada and was clad in the Lion King Armor, his speed skyrocketed instantly after he completed his experimentation.

The 7.8-meter tall Lion King Armor was like a mecha. Controlling this humongous thing, Lin Yao headed toward his destination at lightning speed.

Boom!

The Lion King Armor was both huge and fast. Going all out, Lin Yao traveled even faster than sound, flying extremely fast at a speed of Mach 3.

Thanks to his superb speed, Lin Yao managed to reach his destination 10 minutes later. During the journey, he didn’t encounter any attacks, as he had been traveling on the roads cleared by the military personnel.

When Lin Yao reached his destination, the military personnel had not ceased opening the roads. As he watched the endless military personnel that formed a long, winding line that stretched into the distance, Lin Yao turned his head and flew toward a huge city.

This was the satellite city. Although this city had many similarities to Ninghai City, it was much more prosperous.

However, upon arriving and looking at the missions sent by the locals, Lin Yao could sense the difference between this place and Shanghai.

In Shanghai, all the beasts that posed a threat to humans were hidden. None of the beasts that had been located had survived.

However, in this satellite city, there were many attacking missions. Someone had located the beasts and monsters, but they lacked the capability to eliminate them immediately.

Of course, the higher-ups of the city would not sit and do nothing. They were recruiting civilian martial artists to fight these tough battles.

[Rodent Infestation]

[Mission Level: Catastrophe Level (Low)]

[Description: A large number of demonized rats have entrenched themselves in the granary. The number is estimated to be about one million. These demonized rats are extremely dangerous, and there are elite rats and rat kings amongst them. Please do not approach this place rashly.]

[Mission Notice: Any adventurers who are willing to eliminate the rodent infestation, please gather at *** square at noon. Then, the military personnel and armed police will lead the team to eliminate the rodent infestation.]

[Mission Reward: A total of one million points, depending on the contribution made in the battle.]

[Note: All adventurers, please bring the contact device and turn on the video mode. This video will be used as the basis for determining your contribution.]

The t.i.tle of the mission was Blood Red. Along with the mission description, there were photos and videos attached to it. Lin Yao took a brief look at them and discovered that the demonized rats in this place were indeed extremely dangerous. Every rat was the size of a rooster and had exposed, sharp teeth and blood-red eyes. At first sight, they looked extremely savage.

Furthermore, these were ordinary rats. The elite rats were as huge as wild boars. Lin Yao even saw an elite demonized rat chewing and eating steel.

‘Catastrophe Level (Low). This is already at a level that poses a threat to the city.’

There were one million demonized rats, including elite rates and rat kings. If there were no powerhouses to stop them, they would really devour the entire city along with all its buildings and people.

In addition to the rat infestation at the granary, there were several other worrisome places in the satellite city. There was a black monster that had occupied the sewers and was hiding in the sewage. At the same time, this satellite city had some outposts, mines, and livestock farms in the wild that had been invaded by monsters. There were many missions to eliminate the monsters, defend the mines, and even mine.

The points awarded for mining were quite substantial. Upon taking a closer look, Lin Yao discovered that very few civilians would dare to go to the wild, as it was too dangerous. However, in order to keep up the normal operations of the city, resources were indispensable. Therefore, the higher-ups of the city could only use points to entice the civilians into mining in the wild.

Of course, the higher-ups did not want the civilians to suffer serious injuries or die. All the mining areas were filled with escorting and protecting missions.

Lin Yao browsed through the mission webpage and was shocked to discover that the satellite city was facing a critical shortage of defenders. This was because beasts had invaded both the inside and outside of the city and it was necessary to eliminate them. The city was recruiting people to do that.

Furthermore, the remuneration was very high. The stronger the individual, the more exaggerated their pay. Lin Yao felt tempted by this.

Of course, he would not opt to be stationed there. He quickly moved on and looked at the mission that Qin Ya had accepted for him.

‘All of them are at the silver level. Furthermore, they are search missions. This will put my forte to good use.’

Smiling, Lin Yao tapped his finger on the interface repeatedly. Very soon, he took on most of the killing missions in this city.

He had accepted too many missions in one go, so he received a customer service prompt.

“Dear Adventurer, good day. The system detected that you have accepted a large number of missions. This is a violation of the regulations. Please complete the missions that you have accepted before moving on to the next one.”

This reminder was also heard by the ladies who had been in contact with Lin Yao. While Lin Yao was flying, they had been in touch via voice calls. They couldn’t see Lin Yao’s situation and thus could not understand why he’d suddenly accepted numerous missions.

“Ah Yao, what are you doing? The mission we accepted for you is the most suitable.”

“That was the most suitable for me yesterday.”

“???”

Lin Yao’s reply made them feel somewhat confused. At that very moment, Qin Ya’s voice was heard.

“Ah Yao, the live stream is ready. How are things on your end?”

“No trouble.”

“I’ll connect to the live stream then… Don’t feel stressed. Just follow the steps and complete the missions. Don’t think about looking handsome. Your safety is our utmost priority. We will cut off the live stream if there are any problems.”

“Okay, got it.”

While the two of them were conversing, Qin Ya had been setting up various data in the live stream. At the same time, she also shot a glance at the live-stream interface. She then frowned.

Many people were holding live-streams. Some of the forces and dojos were doing live-streams of their geniuses, as they also wanted to become famous. In addition, there were more than 10 heavenly kings leading various battalions into battle at that moment.

Of course, they might be completing the country’s missions. The country was using the heavenly kings and battalions to rea.s.sure its people.

This was very useful. Even Qin Ya, who was very tough and resilient, felt less afraid upon seeing the heavenly kings and military teams opening the roads in the wilderness.

This also applied to other people. Regardless of who they were and which city they were in, they would know after seeing the live streams that the country had not given up on them. Attacks had been launched everywhere to save them.

It was gratifying to know that the heavenly kings were leading the battalions into battle. However, Qin Ya was frowning, as most of the people would pay attention to them. This would take away most of the audience. Lin Yao was a newcomer, and it might be hard for him to attract people’s gazes.

Without viewers.h.i.+p, their plan to attract others to join them would probably fail. If they could not get talented martial artists, they would not be able to form the adventure group.

‘We’ll be able to garner more views if Lin Yao battles some dangerous creatures… Forget it. Lin Yao’s safety is the most important. As for the adventure group, we’ll take it a step at a time.’

Despite saying this, Qin Ya t.i.tled the live stream Shanghai’s Blue Flash. She also spent a lot of money disseminating posts on the local forums of Shanghai about Blue Flash live streams.

Qin Ya was busy contacting others and creating awareness on the Internet. After a long time, she had the time to take a glance at Lin Yao’s live stream.

At this glance, an entire screen of question marks greeted her eyes.

“????”

“Are you telling me that this person, who is driving a Gundam¹, is Blue Flash?”
