Chapter 99: Official Bounty (Part Two)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The cultivation of these Red Crystal Crabs wasn’t high enough, and the spiritual power content of the crab meat in their bodies was extremely low. There was no nutritional energy at all when they were eaten.
Therefore, after eating some, unless these crabs stupidly crawled into their mouths, the crocodiles stopped hunting these crabs.
The electric eel clone swam to the river bend and continued to use the same trick, releasing lighting to fish for beasts.
Crocodiles were cautious and cunning by nature. The electric eel clone spent more time and effort than before it finally lured a Copper-Headed Crocodile King out of the river bay.
The electric eel clone was invincible.
Under a series of lightning strikes, it turned into food for the electric eel clone. The Copper-Headed Crocodile King’s body was filled with the power of the metal element but it had no chance to resist such a powerful strike.
“The crocodile skin of the Copper-Headed Crocodile King is the best material for making leather pants, leather shoes, and belts. Moreover, crocodile skin tastes sour and unpalatable, so I won’t eat it.”
The electric eel raised its claws, tore off the leather of the Copper-Headed Crocodile King, and began to feast on the crocodile meat inside.
[Your Soul Clone has finished eating, five hundred experience points gained.]
Not bad, these were the real experience points!

There were about 200 Copper-Headed Crocodile Kings in the river bay. When the electric eel ate all of them, it should be able to level up to a Late Stage Level Two beast!
This leveling speed was so fast it was almost like cheating!
After the tide attack ended, people walked out of the underground bomb shelter with heavy hearts.
When the crowd saw a large number of houses being destroyed, many of them had expressions of despair and pain.
At this critical moment, all the students and soldiers of Quicksand High School collectively helped with the reconstruction for free!
The government also opened the warehouse and distributed all kinds of supplies and daily necessities to the victims for free.
When all the raw materials were provided for free, the people who lost their houses in the war saw hope.
Chu Lingjun carried nearly ten bags of cement on his shoulders and ran up and down in the ruins as if he were walking on flat ground.
Almost all the other students around were the same. Everyone was a martial artist who had achieved great success in cultivation to a certain degree. This kind of construction work was not difficult, and it was easier than imagined!
This was especially true for the excavators, transport vehicles, and other technical things that they could not take care of. Everyone’s role was critical at this moment.
One person could easily lift a beam, and the other could easily lift a wall. After three days of such a fiery battle, almost all the collapsed buildings were rebuilt.
The Quicksand Tower, which was more than a hundred meters tall, was rebuilt.
This tower was not easy to build. In just a few years, it had collapsed more than ten times. Almost every time they were attacked, it was the first target.
“Chu Lingjun, you seem to know a lot about my family.” Wu Zheng pressed the roof beam that was more than ten meters long on the ground and lifted it up. He then carried it on his shoulder and threw it onto a truck not far away.
As he worked, he started a conversation with Chu Lingjun.
“I happened to watch your battle during the last midterm exam.” Chu Lingjun replied. He had already prepared a draft in his mind.
“At that time, your classmates were all discussing the matter of your manager being dismissed and I overheard all of it.
“It’s easy to find out about your family’s matters since you’re so popular. Your father’s death and fallout with his brother were on the news back then.
“The latter is all old news. When the ship crashed last time, it was also dug up by someone with ulterior motives and published in the newspaper together.”
The Wu’s Clothing Factory was one of the largest factories in Quicksand Town, so it was normal for it to be reported in the newspapers.
Chu Lingjun’s explanation was flawless and reasonable.
For some reason, Wu Zheng still felt that Chu Lingjun was hiding something from him.
“How are your classmates? What happened to the students who were patrolling with you that day?” Chu Lingjun suddenly asked.
Wu Zheng’s expression turned cold. “They were expelled from the school and transferred to the city guards.”
“I guess their future is ruined…”
“They deserve it!” Wu Zheng said through gritted teeth.
Those people had taken Wu Zheng’s money. When they were patrolling that day, they had deliberately brought Wu Zheng to that remote street.
Then, Wu Yuan continued to lure them to other places. Otherwise, the commotion caused by their fight would attract the attention of others.
“Thank you for your help. If you need my help in the future, just let me know!
Anything that I, Wu Zheng, can do, I’ll do it with all my might!”
Chu Lingjun smiled. This kid’s personality was very similar to his father’s!
What a pity!
Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu were led by a city guard to a magnificent villa.
The two of them had just stepped into the villa when they realized that there were already many people around them!
There were a few Rank Four captains from the city guards, a few Rank Four generals from the military, and the presidents and vice presidents of the Martial Arts Association and Superpower Association were also here.
Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu couldn’t help but feel a chill in their hearts. Almost all the leaders of Quicksand Town had arrived!
As soon as they stepped into the villa, the pungent smell of rotting corpses assaulted their noses and drilled into Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu’s senses.
The two of them were led by the city guards to the basement of the villa. Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu could not help but jump in shock when they entered!
There were more than a dozen corpses in the basement covered in iron spears. Blood and flesh were sprayed everywhere. Because the corpses were not discovered in time, they had already rotted to a certain extent!
Of course, what shocked Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu the most was that they recognized one of the corpses. It was Cao Shixi, a Rank Four martial artist and a captain of the Quicksand Town Guards!
The dignified captain of Quicksand Town had been tortured to death at home! Moreover, his wife, daughter, servants, and subordinates had all died!
“This…” Zhong Tongshan could not help but say.
“There was a survivor at the scene. He knew the ins and outs of the matter.”
“Huh?” Zhong Tongshan was confused. Even Cao Shixi, who had a Rank Four cultivation base, was killed, so how were there other survivors?
Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu were quickly brought to a middle-aged man with a simple and honest face.
Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu looked at each other. What was going on?
Soon, the captain of the city guards gave a simple explanation. Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu then understood the inside story.
“It was Meng Shangchun! The one who killed everyone that day was Meng Shangchun!”
The man’s body trembled as he curled up on the sofa. His face was still pale as he spoke.
Hearing this name, Zhong Tongshan and Shen Yanhu’s expressions turned solemn and filled with fear.
Meng Shangchun was a genius of the Cthulhuism Society who had risen to fame in recent years!
The number of orthodox martial artists and espers who had died in his hands had already exceeded double digits.
Each method was extremely cruel. He would use metal rods to stab the victims one by one until they became iron hedgehogs!
Because of his incomparably bloody methods, this evil genius was known as the Bloody Butcher!
He always wore a red devil mask, he was also known as the Bloody Devil!
Among the bounties that the Dragon Country’s officials had offered for evil people, Meng Shangchun was ranked first on the Rank Four list! He killed everyone in Cao Shixi’s family, but why did he let this man go?
What secret did these two have?
