Runemaster in the Last Days-Chapter 247: Mutating

"That will do." Mr. Jones was satisfied with this arrangement. City A Base was expanding and the problem of food will come sooner or later.

If they could solve this problem, then the future development of City A Base would be very good. As long as they have enough food, they could start focus on other things.

Otherwise, they couldn’t even live.

Food and water problems had started to arise during this time and Mr. Jones was hoping that his son could come up with something. Unfortunately, what Samuel had in his mind were all related to battle.

This made Mr. Jones helpless.

But he should also say that it was as expected of his son.

"Fruits are more resistant." Samuel remembered that there were many wild fruits that they picked during expedition in that world. There was no need for them to worry about these fruits containing violent mana, so he was sure that these plants were resistant.

In this way, they didn’t have to worry too much about fruits.

But for fixed food…

Samuel had to say that he was not sure.

"I’ll convey it and the others will be handed to the researchers." Mr. Jones thought for a moment and then added, "If the cost for the protection formation is not big, you can make a few more or even sell them to the officials later."

"I’m not sure whether the formation can be carved with the fences alone or she had to draw on the ground." Samuel looked at his father helplessly.

He was not a formation master and the one who made it is Riya.

Thinking about this, Samuel sighed in his heart. He felt that it was his luck to be able to meet Riya or relying on that children version of the purification spell that Peter handed over….

Yeah, it would be very embarrassing.

At the same time, Samuel felt that the officials and the Martial Arts Association should start looking for other people who come back from that world.

"If possible, it would be better if we can find an alchemist and tool master. Rune master and tool masters have close relationship and if they could combine their abilities… we can even create weapons more powerful than the nuclear weapon," Samuel added.

Mr. Jones looked at his son with a blank look.

If he hadn’t raised Samuel himself, he would have thought that this son of his wanted to destroy the entire world.

A weapon better than the nuclear weapon…

What do you want to use it for?

But at the same time, this also reminded Mr. Jones about something else.

"There’s news this morning that Continent Y had started to use nuclear weapon to clear up the magic beasts. They centered it in the crack’s entrance but it’s said that it’s not effective because countless magic beasts still come out of the crack," Mr. Jones said and took the video to show his son.

He had received this video this morning but forgot to tell Samuel because of the food and water problem.

After all, the water problem was the biggest problem.

Now that it was solved, they could start thinking about other things.

Samuel looked at the video and watched with a frown. The entire area was completely filled with magic beasts, more than 100 times than the number of magic beasts roaming around City A.

Continent Y couldn’t possibly let these magic beasts leave, so they choose the direct method of using the nuclear weapon.

As for the survivor in that area?

They couldn’t care anymore.

Right now, it was more important to kill these magic beasts rather than worrying about the survivor who were left.

Boom!

The screen was dark for a while and before long, it come closer again. These magic beasts still died under the fierce bombing of the nuclear weapon.

But the crack remained intact.

No… it was not intact.

The crack has gotten even bigger as if it was pried open and through that layer, Samuel could see that that the crack was actually quite deep. It would have to reach certain depth before it could hit the barrier.

And the nuclear bomb was not strong enough to reach it.

But with the expansion of the crack, more and more magic beasts came out of the ruins, stepping on top of the death bodies of the previous magic beasts outside. These magic beasts were all mangled and then the new magic beasts came to eat these corpses.

And…

They grew stronger.

"They’re mutating, aren’t they?" Samuel’s face was dark when he watched this scene. If these magic beasts become even stronger because of the mutation caused by the nuclear weapon…

They might not be able to face these magic beasts anymore.

"Yes." Mr. Jones nodded helplessly as he looked at the screen. "Thankfully, Continent Y is located in the opposite direction of Continent Z, so these magic beasts will not come to harass us anytime soon."

Samuel nodded and then pursed his lips. "Doesn’t the government of Continent Z also plan to use the nuclear weapon before?"

"There’s indeed that plan but they choose not to use it after seeing that the place with the high concentration of magic beasts still has base erected," Mr. Jones replied.

"Where?"

"City J," Mr. Jones said and showed the map. "It’s a bit far from here and it’s said that there are more magic beasts in that area, but there’s a powerful fighter there. The official base didn’t tell her or his name, though."

A powerful warrior?

When Samuel heard this, he guessed that there might be someone who returned from that world in that area too.

In this way, these people would be able to survive.

With people who came back from the other world coming back, it meant that their survival rate had increased sharply. Because those who could survive in that world were by no means ordinary.

So far, all of those whom he had met were very powerful.
