Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 364: Section 360 - Bloody Feast

The skin fissures of the mutant still harbored some small mutants, with membranous wings, bodies black and slippery, sharp and long claws, and a bizarre appearance with pointy faces and thin cheeks. It was hard to imagine these creatures, only the size of a soccer ball, living on such a giant creature’s body and constantly moving under the sand.

However, these remaining few were all shock-killed by the impact wave of the 152 demolition bombs, none survived.

Not to mention mutants only this big, even an elephant would be killed on the spot if it were hit at such close range, even without shrapnel.

"Stay back!"

The Neanderthal Clan Leader Bassan, standing far away, reminded the silly and tall black figure not to let his guard down.

Apu pulled out his weapon and stabbed it into the mutant’s carcass, then burst out laughing, "It’s already dead like this!"

Bassan said emotionlessly, "Be careful of playing possum!"

With his deadpan face and his sparing speaking habits, it was quite rare for him to take the initiative to say this much to Apu.

"Huh? How could that be!"

Apu activated his Battle Qi, and lightning traveled along his weapon into the mutant’s carcass.

Unexpectedly, the mutant’s carcass suddenly twisted violently, frightening the big black figure into retreating more than a dozen steps.

Just then, the remaining half of the mutant’s carcass suddenly shrank into the sand, disappearing entirely into the ground in the blink of an eye.

"Ah! My weapon, my weapon!"

Apu finally reacted, lunging towards the mutant’s carcass but ending up face-first in the stinking sand.

"...My, my weapon ahhhhh..."

Only his wailing remained echoing in that spot, as the mutant’s carcass, with the weapon still stuck in it, sank beneath the sand, vanishing without a trace.

Watching this scene, Bassan’s lips twitched, and he finally uttered a word.

"Condolences!"

He was utterly unskilled at comforting people.

"Apu, see what you’ve done!"

The leader of Squad 04, Adrian Benjamin, was so angry he wanted to hang the big black guy on the railgun of the Mobile Base Vehicle and give him a good whipping.

Of course, this thought was just that—a thought.

A Mage scolding a War Professional was utterly pointless.

"Wuwuwu...My great sword, it cost three hundred thousand Star Yuan to customize...Wuwuwu... It’s gone! Wuwuwu..."

They say a man’s tears do not fall easily, yet Apu managed to cry like a three-hundred-pound child.

But the hard-earned victory over the giant mutant left only a segment of its carcass, which then mysteriously ran off, making the whole situation incredibly depressing.

"Beer, soft drinks, sunflower seeds, peanuts, anyone interested in custom-made cold weapons?"

Chen Fei seized the opportunity to hawk his wares, as life was tough and he needed to supplement the family income.

The Holy Knight, returning to the platform with the Blue Scaled Colt Mini, said wearily, "Give me a dozen beers first to calm my nerves!"

After a desperate escape, whether it was the people or the Blue Scaled Colt, both were dripping with sweat after the run, and it was an experience they sincerely didn’t want to repeat.

"...Wuwuwu, I want to order a custom cold weapon, Emmm, custom cold weapon? Can that be done?"

The black giant who was still grieving finally caught on.

He was straightforward and rash, but not stupid!

"Metal Elemental Psychic Power user crafting weapons, sigh, you really are suited to be an industrial worker!"

Kiterley, an A-grade Metal Ability User, couldn’t help but facepalm and shake his head, he couldn’t watch this any longer. Where was the pride of a Metal Ability User?

Was the money really that important?

Turns out Chen Fei was truly a Money Psychic, never letting go of an opportunity to make a profit.

"Starting at thirty thousand Star Yuan! Size and weight can be customized, except for Magic Arrays; I can’t do that just yet."

Chen Fei announced a friendly price.

"Can it be exactly the same as the original one?"

Apu, climbing up from the sandy ground, looked hopefully towards the dead volcano.

"We’ll adjust it on-site until you’re satisfied; you have to believe in Metal Elemental Psychic Power."

Chen Fei was very happy about picking up the thirty thousand Star Yuan.

Although I’m not a true master swordsmith, in front of the combined skills of "Metal Shaping|Replication|Material Simulation," any master swordsmith would have to admit defeat.

"I believe it, totally believe it! Hehehe!"

The big black guy finally broke into laughter, his face foolishly joyful. He didn’t bother looking for his weapons anymore and trotted back.

Listening to the two’s conversation through the earpiece, Bassan couldn’t hold back any longer and said irritably, "What an... idiot!"

"No, they’re both idiots!"

An A-rank Metal Ability User named Kiterley couldn’t stand it any longer and quickly jumped off the Mobile Base Vehicle, keeping a good distance away.

Intelligence isn’t contagious, only stupidity is.

So if you hang out with top students all your life, you still won’t become one.

But play with underachievers for just three days, and you’re guaranteed to become one—if you hang out longer, you’re past saving.

"Just let him escape like thattttt!"

Adrian, whose emotions had plummeted from Heaven to Hell, cursed inwardly, so angry that steam could have been coming out of his seven orifices—it wouldn’t have been surprising if he burst into flames right then and there.

"So scary!"

Mouri Misono and Susanna were so frightened they clung to each other, trembling like leaves.

Turns out, when the captain got angry, sparks would emanate from him, as if he were a devil who had crawled out of Hell.

"Adrian, we need to hurry and finish installing the remaining geosonar," the A-rank Psychic Ability User and Puppet Master Joshua reminded him.

Getting the desert’s underground detection equipment properly situated was the real deal. Once the underground, ground, and air surveillance network was complete, they could truly relax inside their Lava Cave base.

"I know that!"

The fiery mage of the Earth Order finally vented his emotions and then stood on the edge of the platform at the entrance of the Lava Cave, pointing at the big black man walking back and said, "Apu, you’re in charge of installing the remaining geosonars. You, all of them, no eating until you’re done. If you miss mealtime, wait for the next!"

As a captain, this was the only thing he could abuse his authority with.

Although a part of the mutant’s remains had been lost, the remaining flesh was enough to register its genetic sequence in the records, and the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee’s Mutant Database would gain another important species.

Well, how do I put this?

The reward for this discovery, when divided among everyone, would definitely be more profitable than customizing a cold weapon for 30,000 Star Yuan.

Therefore, Adrian had no strength left to criticize the "poor taste" of the B-rank Metal Ability User. Why doesn’t anyone care about what’s really important?

So... ridiculously wealthy people will never understand the thoughts of a pauper!

"Ah! No food? No, no, no, that’s not happening! I’ll get it done immediately, right away!"

The big black man was taken aback and hurriedly rushed back to the base, grabbing seven or eight long, thick geosonars and heading down the mountain to find the designated spots to firmly plant them.

Also rushing against time, he couldn’t slowly dig in the sand, so he had to unleash his flickering Thunder series fighting spirit to forcefully plant each geosonar into place.

Rushing as he might, Apu the big black man managed to finish just in time for mealtime, and though he was short of breath and on edge, he foolishly rejoiced that he hadn’t missed a meal.

The three rings of geosonar installations around the Dead Volcano activated one by one, sending out special frequency sound waves that echoed underground.

By collecting these sound waves, they could detect if there were objects beneath the surface; time lines would indicate if there was any movement, while also monitoring all underground noises. Should any mutants be lurking beneath the sand, the system would detect and lock onto their position and depth immediately.

If they added a large number of landmines, it would be tough for a whole mutant, like the one before, to get close to the Dead Volcano as if no one was guarding it.

As soon as the geosonar detection ring around the Dead Volcano was activated, it immediately discovered more than thirty mutants of varying sizes hidden under the desert sands near the volcano.

Just now, they were overshadowed by the grandeur of the giant mutant and dared not make any reckless moves. When the giant lost a section of its body and the rest fled in disarray, these mutants dared not move at all.

Team 04 felt lucky to have completed their thorough detection system just in time, not giving those cunning mutants any chance.

Boom!~

An anti-infantry mine suddenly sprung more than a meter into the air, and with a flash of light, countless steel balls sprayed in all directions.

The mutants that were gathered around the spilled flesh and gorging themselves were immediately mowed down by the shrapnel, emitting all sorts of pitiful screams.

A nearby directional anti-infantry mine exploded forcefully, capturing all the larger and luckier mutants which hadn’t yet reacted, adding fresh new ingredients to the bloody feast.

The mutant that had lost half of its body left a field full of stench and flesh, inevitably attracting the starving desert mutants.

Team 04 didn’t destroy the flesh on the spot but utilized it by setting numerous traps around the location. And not far away, the Mobile Base Vehicle equipped with Demolition Bombs on the railgun had already been pre-aimed.

This was a brutal, bloody banquet. Who would escape the fate of being added to the next course was a mystery to the heavens, but Chen Fei, who controlled the firing mechanism of the railgun, knew.
