Chapter 95: Chapter 95: War Correspondent

Translator: 549690339

Lin Zhen drove the vehicle forward, and as they approached Zhao Dong, the snow on the ground was nearly a foot thick.

It had only been an hour, and an unprecedented amount of snow had fallen in that time.

The cars wipers swung back and forth, and Lin Zhen exhaled a breath of white air.

Its really cold, the temperature must be almost minus forty degrees.

Martial Artists have strong bodies and abundant vitality, so they can withstand temperatures below minus twenty degrees without much concern. However, once the temperature drops below minus thirty degrees, it becomes challenging for even them, especially in the Wilderness Area.

Todays temperature was clearly below minus thirty degrees, and it was expected to continue dropping.

When the vehicle reached the edge of Zhao Dong, it could no longer move forward.

Lin Zhen got out of the car and pushed it forward with his immense strength, finally finding a hidden corner to park it.

At this moment, Zhao Dong was completely enveloped in white, and the traces of Mutated Beasts seemed to have disappeared, as the extremely cold weather made many of them unwilling to come out.

After a while, Lin Zhens tire tracks were no longer visible, and he would not be able to return without flying. No one would be able to leave Zhao Dong before the storm was over.

Walking by foot in this snowy weather would not be fast, and one would only become prey for Mutated Beasts in the wild since there is no hideout in the desolate wilderness. It would be discovered by Mutated Beasts, so the city was relatively safer.

Lin Zhen wore white cotton clothes, and the inner layer was also warm, not appearing bulky.

He looked up at Zhao Dong in the midst of the storm and began to walk. He needed to find a place to rest first.

Lin Zhen walked at a leisurely pace, entering from the edge of the city and moving forward slowly.

Before entering the city, a loud hiss came from above, and a huge shadow descended from the sky!

B-level Mutant Beast Golden-Eye Eagle!

Lin Zhen hadnt expected to encounter such a ferocious flying beast so soon upon entering Zhao Dong. This was his first encounter with a mutated eagle since his rebirth.

The Golden-Eye Eagle, formerly a Gray Falcon, had mutated and was now the size of a small airplane. Its enormous wings spanned five meters wide, and before it could even land, it stirred up a storm of snow.

Lin Zhen raised his hand, and the Black Dragon Spear appeared in his grasp.

However, the Golden-Eye Eagles attack was too fast, and with the giant claw about to hit him square in the face, Lin Zhen didnt have time to counterattack. He dodged to the side with his superior reflexes, avoiding the blow.

Having missed its attack, the Golden-Eye Eagle circled in mid-air and swooped down again in the blink of an eye.

Beast, behold my spear!

Lin Zhens spear trembled, unleashing his Storm attack!

A massive surge of spear light erupted in the snow, driven by the wind and snow, clashing with the Golden-Eye Eagle.

The giant claws of the Golden-Eye Eagle were as hard as iron, creating metallic collision sounds as they clashed with Lin Zhens spear. Its feathers were like iron plates covering its body, and while it couldnt avoid Lin Zhens storm of spear light, it wasnt a fatal attack.

After a series of clashes, Lin Zhen stood firm to withstand the Golden-Eye Eagles fierce claw.

The immense impact forced Lin Zhens body to lean back, but he was prepared. He flipped backvvard in mid-air, dissipating the force, and as the Golden-Eye Eagle hadnt yet taken to the sky, he struck again with his spear.

Waterfall!

Having comprehended Lightning Ion, Lin Zhens Waterfall attack was like a golden torrent!

The Golden -Eye Eagle knew it couldnt withstand the attack, so it tried to avoid it by sidestepping in the air. However, it didnt expect a silver light to flash before its eyes, as Lin Zhens three flying knives simultaneously cut its head!

The angle of the three knives was subtle and aimed straight at its left eye, forcing it to instinctively avoid moving to the left. As it paused, the lightning-infused Waterfall struck it from the sky.

Boom!

In the midst of the snowstorm, the massive body of the Golden-Eye Eagle was sent flying after being hit by Lin Zhen, leaving a deep gouge on the ground as it let out a mournful cry.

A large gash appeared on the chest of the Golden-Eye Eagle, and one of its wings was badly damaged. It still tried to flutter back up, but Lin Zhen slid in front of it and raised his hand. The liquid metal around his waist formed into a sword, slashing through the Golden-Eye Eagles throat.

Blood splattered, and the Golden-eyed Eagle struggled for a while, but eventually could not rise again, dying from exhaustion.

Lin Zhen opened the Golden-eyed Eagles brain and dug out the crystal, putting it into the space ring.

I cant waste this body either, a B-level mutated beast is very rare.

Without time to dissect it, Lin Zhen simply put the whole Golden-eyed Eagle into the space ring, occupying about seven-eighths of the space.

Spiritual mind masters have the greatest advantage against flying mutated beasts because spiritual power can manipulate flying knives. Once a bird falls, it will have a hard time taking off again if controlled skillfully.

Lin Zhen had collected a B-level mutated beast and was in a great mood. This mutated beast was worth about 30-40 million, making it a great start for the day.

With a Golden-eyed Eagle around, there shouldnt be many other high-level mutant beasts nearby. I should be able to find shelter.

The snowstorm was getting worse, and visibility was less than thirty meters. Lin Zhen trudged through the snow and came to a small building.

There were traces of writing on the wall outside the building, suggesting that it was once a bar. There were also two cars crashed together, buried in the snow, but Lin Zhen didnt pay attention to them.

This door looks sturdy, and it seems that someone lived here before. I should be able to rest here.

Lin Zhen went to the door, brushed off the snow on his body, and pushed the door forcefully.

The door opened, but as it did, a dark shadow fell from the sky!

Lin Zhens reaction was incredibly fast, and he thrust his Black Dragon Spear with a clang. An enormous metal box was blocked by Lin Zhen and fell to the ground.

Someone set a trap.

Lin Zhen was alarmed, realizing that there were people in the building. Encountering other martial artists in the wilderness wasnt necessarily a good thing, as many fights started this way.

As expected, after Lin Zhen knocked down the metal box, two people emerged from inside.

Both were martial artists, but Lin Zhen had never seen such low-level martial artists before in the wilderness.

A male looked to be at the level of a junior warrior, holding a gun in his hand. Upon seeing Lin Zhen, he raised the gun with a shivering hand, but he was so panicky that he didnt even remove the safety. It was obvious that he had little combat experience.

The other martial artist was even worse off, merely a hobbyist and a woman.

The woman was about twenty years old with a beautiful appearance. Dressed in a pink down jacket, she looked nervous upon seeing Lin Zhen. It was unclear how these two ended up in a martial artist graveyard like Zhao Dong.

Lin Zhens initial caution dissipated, and he said to them, You dont need to be too nervous. I have no ill intentions. I just came to Zhao Dong and wanted to find a place to stay. I didnt expect anyone to be here, so I just walked in. If its inconvenient, Ill find another place.

The man with the gun said to Lin Zhen, Then you should leave quickly. We dont welcome you here.

Lin Zhen spread his hands, not blaming them for setting up a trap. It was one of the self-preservation tactics for people in the wilderness. Since they were not very welcoming, he thought it would be better to leave. The vast county town offered countless places for shelter.

Just as Lin Zhen was about to leave, the woman finally spoke.

If you are alone, I think you can stay here. Its difficult to find a place with such a heavy snowstorm outside, and there are many mutated birds nearby. It would be disastrous if we encounter them.

Su Na, why are you so indiscriminate in accommodating strangers? What if this guy has ulterior motives? We could be in danger, protested the man with the gun.

The red-clothed woman Su Na rolled her eyes, What strangers? In this wilderness, everyone is in the same boat. Our common enemy is mutated beasts. Dont treat everyone as your enemy.

Su Na went over to Lin Zhen, offering her delicate white hand, Hello, my name is Su Na, a hostess from the Ice City Base City News Bureau. Welcome,.

Only then did Lin Zhen realize why he had encountered these two people. Su Na was a news hostess, which explained why she looked somewhat familiar.

The Base City News Bureau was a very independent unit directly under the jurisdiction of the Base City government, allowing freedom in reporting and interviews. These people were also called war correspondents by martial artists, and they often traveled to gather materials.

However, they usually had protection in most cases. Seeing two rookies like them was indeed rare.

Noticing Lin Zhens confusion, Su Na explained, This is our cameraman, Gao Feng. We originally had one bodyguard, but he was killed by a giant eagle not long ago. We escaped in a car, but we encountered a heavy snowstorm and couldnt go back. So we have to stay here temporarily. d new chaptrs on no/v/e/lin(.)com

Lin Zhen suddenly remembered the car outside the door; it was their interview car.

Lin Zhen also reached out, gently shook Su Nas hand, and said, Nice to meet you, my name is Lin Zhen..
