Xia Xuebing arrived first before the Mutated Zombie Golden Eagle, finishing off the paralyzed creature with a single knife strike, then digging out the Supernatural Characteristic from its brain.

"Two! There are actually two Supernatural Characteristics!"

Xia Xuebing was shocked—this was her first time encountering a mutated zombie with two Supernatural Characteristics!

Were they born with two, or did the Mutated Zombie Golden Eagle devour one?

Gulp~

Xia Xuebing swallowed hard. These were Supernatural Characteristics even Scar Tiger desperately coveted, and she couldn't help feeling ambitious thoughts of keeping them for herself.

But in the next moment, she dismissed that ambition.

Neither she nor her sister had transformation abilities and couldn't absorb Supernatural Characteristics.

As for giving them to Green Little Grass?

She wouldn't endanger herself and her sister for an unfamiliar man.

Besides, even if she wanted to run, she couldn't escape. The Prehistoric Colossus wasn't some pushover—unless a helicopter suddenly appeared right now to whisk her away to safety.

Xia Xuebing lifted the Supernatural Characteristics, raising them with both hands. "Boss! Your Supernatural Characteristics! There are two!"

The Prehistoric Colossus extended its claw, placing it before Xia Xuebing. "I know."

Xia Xuebing shuddered, a chill running down her spine. Li Xuan had known in advance that the Mutated Zombie Golden Eagle had two Supernatural Characteristics!

Thank goodness she hadn't tried to hide one, or she would have been finished.

She placed both Supernatural Characteristics on the Massive Claw, watching as the Giant Beast promptly swallowed them, its body beginning to evolve.

The slightly bulky massive frame became more streamlined. Its Strength didn't decrease but actually increased somewhat, muscles growing more numerous and solid, body mass improving, while the wings on its back visibly enlarged at an observable rate.

The Prehistoric Colossus's wings were thicker than typical bird wings, resembling a combination of giant fish fins and Quetzalcoatlus wings, with many sharp spikes along the edges. After the evolution completed, the wings fully extended to nearly thirty meters!

The Prehistoric Colossus stood over thirty meters tall, and now its wingspan nearly matched its height. The current Prehistoric Colossus looked more like a monster from Ultraman—increasingly terrifying and ferocious.

Scar Tiger crawled out from the fishing net, first shooting a venomous glare at Xia Xuebing before putting on a smiling face and approaching the Prehistoric Colossus. "Congratulations on your successful evolution, Boss! I'll always follow in your footsteps!"

Li Xuan looked down at Scar Tiger and Xia Xuebing below. His purpose for coming to the Black Bear Survivor Base had been accomplished, and he could leave at any time.

"You've done well, especially the Xia Xuebing sisters. I can give you additional rewards, such as taking one more person with me when I leave."

Take someone away?

Scar Tiger paused for a moment before realizing—Li Xuan had promised to take the Xia Xuebing sisters away, and now he was giving Xia Xuebing an additional slot.

'Damn it! When did these two wretched women get promises from Li Xuan!'

He spoke up first, "Boss, I don't want any reward! Working with you is honor enough for me!"

Scar Tiger was trying to block Xia Xuebing's path and prevent her from asking for rewards!

Xia Xuebing ignored Scar Tiger. After their time together, she felt she had figured out Li Xuan's temperament—he kept his word, and as long as you didn't cross his bottom line, he wouldn't punish people over minor matters.

A powerful Transformer who followed neutral order!

"Boss, Brother Scar Tiger and I hit it off immediately. I'm willing to sacrifice mine and my sister's slots to instead take Brother Scar Tiger to the Official Survivor Base! Let Brother Scar Tiger go live a good life!"

Scar Tiger whirled around, staring intently at Xia Xuebing. His mouth hung open as if silently demanding, "Are you playing dirty?"

Li Xuan was speechless. "Scar Tiger, are you willing to leave?"

Scar Tiger quickly said, "Big brother, I don't want to go."

"Change it."

Xia Xuebing immediately responded, "Boss, we're not leaving. We're willing to stay at the Black Bear Survivor Base. However, we feel Scar Tiger isn't managing the survivor base well, especially since he thought stabbing the Mutated Zombie Golden Eagle's wing with a spear would restrain it. I want to become Deputy Base Leader to help Scar Tiger manage the base properly."

"Approved. From now on, you are the Deputy Base Leader of the Black Bear Survivor Base," Li Xuan declared.

He knew Xia Xuebing had ambitions and wasn't exactly a good person, but what did that have to do with him?

He was leaving soon anyway!

The key point was that Xia Bingxue had indeed provided the most crucial assistance in capturing the Mutated Zombie Golden Eagle.

When there was merit, he would reward it.

The scheming and plotting between Scar Tiger and the two sisters didn't affect him.

The Prehistoric Colossus's voice was extremely loud, and all Survivors in the base heard the announcement. Some were angry, some indifferent, while a minority were pleased—such as Green Little Grass and the women in the base.

Without a powerful woman to restrain Scar Tiger, who knew what kind of rules he might change the base to? Women might not even retain the right to be treated as commodities.

Ding~

A mechanical sound rang out.

Li Xuan felt disoriented—why was intelligence refreshing in broad daylight? Then he realized the sun wasn't setting;

his biological clock had become disrupted, making him think it was still daytime when actually it was midnight.

[Venomous Spiked Monster] [Deep Sea King]

Intelligence [Venomous Spiked Monster: Rainstorm Edition. After a zombie mutated, it witnessed a terrifying Giant Beast hunting mutated zombies. Its faint intelligence made it believe land was too dangerous, so it followed the floodwaters onward, eventually entering the ocean. After months deep in the sea, it encountered a massive creature of the deep—a sixteen-meter-long colossal squid!

After a battle, the colossal squid devoured the mutated zombie, consequently becoming infected with the zombie virus and gaining the mutated zombie's Supernatural Characteristic. It later awakened its own Supernatural Characteristic, acquiring the ability to come ashore. With too few zombie animals in the ocean, it began coming ashore to search for mutated zombies and humans.

In thirty days, the mutated zombie colossal squid will appear in Z City's eastern district.

The mutated zombie colossal squid possesses these Supernatural Characteristics: Size Expansion Characteristic, Adaptation Characteristic, Constitution Enhancement Characteristic, Venom Characteristic.]

After reading the intelligence, a question mark formed in Li Xuan's mind.

Could the Giant Beast that mutated zombie witnessed have been him!

Had he indirectly caused a terrifying deep-sea creature to come ashore?

'Four Supernatural Characteristics, three of which I don't possess! I must find a way to kill it!'

The Size Expansion Characteristic and Constitution Enhancement Characteristic would be highly compatible with the Prehistoric Colossus. The Venom Enhancement didn't seem very compatible with the Giant Beast at first glance, but there might be unexpected benefits.

If the venom enhancement could concentrate in the claws, it would be like enchanting the Giant Beast's claws. While useless against zombies—since they're already dead and immune to venom—it would be highly effective against living creatures!
