Intelligence [Prison of Corpses Forest: In the suburbs of Z City, a mutated salamander awakened the Nest supernatural characteristic. By controlling zombies and accumulating flesh and blood, its body fused with tens of thousands of zombies and over a hundred types of zombie animals, covering buildings and roads, transforming into a flesh and blood forest of corpses. Any living creature that steps into it will be instantly devoured, zombies included.

The Prison of Corpses Forest possesses the following supernatural characteristics: Nest characteristic, Self-healing characteristic, Plasticity characteristic, Feigned Death characteristic, Strength characteristic, Hardening characteristic, Softening characteristic, Splitting characteristic, Multi-headed characteristic, Organ Enhancement characteristic, Self-destruction characteristic.

(Because the mutated salamander fused with too many zombies, and instead of absorbing supernatural characteristics after defeating mutated zombies, it directly fused with mutated zombies, resulting in multiple consciousnesses competing for control of the body. Eventually, the consciousness became chaotic, leading to chaotic expansion.

The original consciousness has already collapsed. The remaining consciousness only retains the notions of expansion and assimilation, does not actively attack enemies outside its coverage area, and only devours creatures that intrude within its body's range.)]

How many supernatural characteristics?

Eleven supernatural characteristics?

More than the North River Zombie King?

Did the mutated salamander devour all the mutated zombies in Z City?

Wait, Z City alone might not have that many mutated zombies. Did it also fuse with mutated zombies from nearby cities?

The position of Head of the North River Zombie Kings shouldn't be given to that malformed fierce tiger;

it should be given to the Prison of Corpses Forest.

Judging by the number of characteristics, that malformed fierce tiger simply can't defeat the Prison of Corpses Forest!

After carefully reading the intelligence, Li Xuan deduced why the Prison of Corpses Forest didn't become the Head of the North River Zombie Kings, and wasn't even on the North River Zombie Kings list.

It seems the Prison of Corpses Forest can't move?

If you don't enter its range, you won't be attacked.

The malformed fierce tiger and other zombies certainly can't defeat the Prison of Corpses Forest, but humans could eliminate it with firearms.

Being immobile makes it a living target;

even setting it on fire could kill the Prison of Corpses Forest.

Li Xuan's heart grew excited. Who doesn't love a treasure chest-like living target?

Eleven supernatural characteristics, many of which he doesn't possess.

Killing the Prison of Corpses Forest would be a huge harvest!

Among the characteristics it possesses, the most valuable is undoubtedly the Nest characteristic. Without question, this is a supernatural characteristic on the same level as the Fusion characteristic and the Chaotic Evolution characteristic.

Additionally, the Plasticity characteristic and Splitting characteristic are also suspected to be high-level characteristics.

"Z City... the Venomous Spiked Monster will also go to Z City in over ten days. Does this place specialize in producing monsters?" Li Xuan thought silently to himself.

The journey wasn't pleasant. The sun was scorching, zombies were on the ground, and their travel speed was limited.

Along the way, Li Xuan lamented more than once how fortunate he was to have absorbed the Adaptation supernatural characteristic in advance;

otherwise, he wouldn't have the strength to travel.

During the journey, he encountered people, though very few. Some were afraid of Li Xuan and avoided him from afar, while others approached to ask for his help.

The world never lacks greedy and foolish people. Once, Li Xuan was stopped by several individuals who wanted to offer nothing but requested Li Xuan to help them find a safe and cool place to live, along with some food and water, and preferably a few women too.

To such people, Li Xuan's response was only one word.

Die!

After crushing a few people to death, he left one alive.

He was genuinely curious how someone so foolish had managed to survive until now.

After some interrogation, Li Xuan got an answer that made him both laugh and cry.

It turned out someone had posted a message online, spreading that the Giant Beast was very trustworthy and kind. These people mistakenly thought Li Xuan was a great, benevolent person, so they mustered the courage to make various demands of Li Xuan.

They thought even if Li Xuan refused, he wouldn't kill them. After Li Xuan refused, they planned to say they were willing to become Li Xuan's underlings, help him establish a survivor base, and let him be the Base Leader.

People always like compromises;

if Li Xuan initially refused, it would be harder to refuse later.

That's what they thought, but they didn't expect Li Xuan wouldn't even answer them and just acted directly.

Afterward, Li Xuan crushed the last person to death.

He also learned that the person who spread the message online was An Chun. Her initial idea was to promote Li Xuan's trustworthiness, so that people who saw the message and encountered Li Xuan would cooperate with him, increasing Li Xuan's avenues for obtaining supernatural characteristics.

Probably even An Chun didn't anticipate that there were people in the world foolish enough to think Li Xuan was a great, kind person, making demands directly without even needing to use moral coercion.

Where there are fools, there are naturally smart people;

in fact, the smart ones are the majority.

Some people requested Li Xuan's help by offering food and water, an equal exchange. For example, asking Li Xuan to clear the entrance to an underground parking lot. With ground temperatures rising, hiding in an underground garage was a good option. The previous version's floods had submerged the underground parking lot, and the water flow carried various debris, blocking the entrance, including construction waste.

Without proper tools, ordinary people found it difficult to clear the entrance.

For the Giant Beast that Li Xuan transformed into, this was a very easy task. A poke with his claw could create an opening large enough for people to pass through.

If it didn't affect his travel, the trade was fair, and the task was simple, Li Xuan didn't mind helping the survivors, and he could also obtain some food.

Thud~

He helped another group of people clear the entrance to an underground parking lot.

Li Xuan spoke up and asked, "How far is this place from Z City?"

A sturdy-built man stepped out from the crowd, looked up at Li Xuan, and said, "Once you pass the intersection ahead, you'll be in the suburbs of Z City. We escaped from Z City ourselves."

"Oh? Why did you escape? Are there powerful mutated zombies in Z City?" Li Xuan asked casually.

The sturdy man shook his head repeatedly. "No, initially there were mutated zombies in Z City, but later, for some reason, the mutated zombies all disappeared. Compared to other cities, Z City is very safe. We came out here for this underground parking lot. It has three underground levels;

hiding on the third basement level must be much cooler than above ground."

Li Xuan thought thoughtfully. As he approached Z City, the frequency and number of survivors he encountered had increased. This area was indeed safer than other cities.

He could also guess the reason: the mutated zombies were all fused by the Prison of Corpses Forest. Since the Prison of Corpses Forest can't move, and there are no roaming mutated zombies, zombie hordes are difficult to form, making it naturally safer.

"Do you know if there's a strange zombie somewhere, one that envelops buildings and the ground, the kind that can't move?" Li Xuan asked directly and clearly.

The sturdy man looked blank. "I don't know."

A little girl in the crowd raised her hand. "I know!"

The girl's parent in the crowd was startled and quickly pulled the little girl back. "Don't talk nonsense!"

The little girl said stubbornly, "I really know! It's in that direction. I heard Xiao Hua talk about it."

Li Xuan looked at the little girl. His massive head lowered;

one of his eyes was about the same size as the little girl. As he got closer, it created immense pressure.

The little girl burst into tears with a "Waaah!" and hid in her parent's arms.

The nervous parent patted the little girl's back and said sheepishly to Li Xuan, "Sorry, the child is timid. Please don't mind, don't mind."

"It's fine. Comfort her first," Li Xuan said.
