After the Global Evolution, I Stand at the Top of the Food Chain

Lu Yan took a shower by himself, and put the cleaned rabbit into his pocket.

According to the system, carrying pollutants at any time can make the "human" breath on him weaker.

The Rabbit Butcher poked his head out of his pocket and asked in a low voice, "Mom, when are we going home?"

Lu Yan said expressionlessly, "Call me brother. Uncle is also fine."

Tutu: "Mom."

After correcting it several times to no avail, Lu Yan gave up this futile behavior.

He tries to use Talent 14, Mental Reshape on Rabbit Butcher. It's a pity that after staring at Rabbit for a long time, Lu Yan couldn't log in to the familiar interface.

[give up. This little pollutant has no brains at all. ]

[It has a certain thinking ability, but what has supported it until now is nothing more than an obsession that cannot be let go. ]

Lu Yan sighed, and put the bunny into his pocket again.

Rabbit Butcher hugged Lu Yan through the fabric of his clothes.

At four o'clock in the morning, a bright fire flashed across the dark sky.

Lu Yan opened the balcony window and watched a flaming bird fly across the sky, wherever it went, it was like the morning glow.

This radiance is still dazzling and hot in the world covered by a layer of light red, showing the master's powerful strength.

The red bird flew by like a shooting star, and died like a shooting star.

[07 and 01 are here, 07 can actually not light up, this is 01's demonstration. After all, this is Lu Zhi's territory. This is also a warning to Lu Zhi not to use his brains. ] The system whispers, [Stay away from Xicheng District. Over there is the rich area. Lu Zhi is entertaining 01 and 07. 01 is a real dog, but his nose is smarter than a dog, don't let him smell it. ]

Lu Yan asked, "Is Zong Yan okay?"

[What do you mean? If it is strength, he is probably the strongest since he became a pollutant. If it refers to personality and will...] ​​The system paused, [He no longer remembers that his name is Zong Yan. ]

Lu Yan frowned slowly: "Can I go out now?"

Before Lu Yan left, although he sent a message to Tang Xun'an, saying that he was a little tired, he hoped no one would disturb him. But it would be strange if he didn't show up all day.

System: [You hold a slaughterhouse work permit, so it stands to reason that you can freely enter and exit the inner world. It’s just that I have to remind you that in order to prevent butchers from accepting private orders without paying the 35% service fee, if they want to leave the slaughterhouse, they need to be checked by other staff of the slaughterhouse. And from the early morning of the 11th, the slaughterhouse will be temporarily closed, only entering and exiting. ]

No matter how much Lu Yan smelled like pollutants, it was quite different from the "Zhu Tu" on the practicing certificate.

[During this time, if you have nothing to do, you can walk around the slaughterhouse. ]

So Lu Yan stopped talking.

He lowered his eyes, wiped the tablecloth silently, and wiped his weapon repeatedly.

There was no light in the room, and Lu Yan's bright red pupils looked like a blood moon.

X City, Pollution Disease Prevention and Control Center.

Probably because it was the eve of the war, and the atmosphere in the entire base was very depressing.

Some peripheral staff did not know what was going on, but subconsciously lowered their voices and slowed down their pace so as not to be noticed by others.

The place where the contract was signed this time was on the outskirts of City X, and the nearby residents had already evacuated. And the staff of the Fifth Research Institute built a barrier a week in advance. Although it is true that the protective effect of the barrier on the outside is better than nothing, it is better than nothing.

What I want to ask was already finished during the meeting yesterday; the headquarters also doesn't want to put pressure on these Apocalypse who are already in a poor state of mind. Therefore, there was no meeting and everyone was allowed to move freely.

Every Apocalypse has his own way of relaxing before performing the task. As long as the law allows, the headquarters will not interfere.

Tang Xun'an woke up around four o'clock in the morning.

His sleep quality has always been poor, but this time the reason for waking up in the middle of the night came from outside.

If I had to describe it, probably Tang Xun'an could feel a group of "energy bodies" passing by in a very high-profile way, like a demonstration.

This group of energy bodies doesn't think about anything other than s-level pollutants.

Tang Xun'an felt it for a moment, and thought it should be 07.

The current classification standards were established many years ago. However, the pollution value of the enemy camp is getting higher and higher, so that there is a big difference between s and s.

At least, the energy body that I felt just now can be ranked among the top five in Tang Xun'an's impression.

Now the pollution is getting more and more serious, and the nutrition of the pollutants is getting better and better. Whether it is the pollutants or the apocalypse, both sides are gratifying.

Even Tang Xun'an's spiritual power threshold, which had not been touched for a long time, skyrocketed from 11,000 to 13,000 in a short period of time.

But for humans, this is not a happy event.

Tang Xun'an couldn't fall asleep when he woke up, and he missed his little boyfriend. It's just that knocking on the door in the middle of the night doesn't seem like a serious person. So Tang Xun'an waited until dawn before sending a message to Lu Yan: Are you awake?

No reply.

Lu Yan's life has always been regular. Unless you are seriously injured and need your body to heal itself, you will rarely stay in bed, let alone stay asleep.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Tang Xun'an knocked on the door, but still no one answered.

Tomorrow is Lu Yan's birthday, but he has to sign the contract, so there is probably no time to celebrate.

Tang Xun'an originally wanted to move to today.

This would have been the first birthday party they had, and possibly the only one.

He thought for a moment, then went to the front desk and asked, "Did Ting Ting go out today?"

The receptionist shook his head: "I haven't seen Mr. Di Ting come out before."

They are on duty 24 hours. If Lu Yan left through normal channels, someone would definitely notice.

Tang Xun'an returned to the 11th floor.

He put his hand on the door of the staff dormitory, and after a while, the door lock lost its protective ability due to aging.

An alarm sounded in the room, Tang Xun'an pushed the door open and turned off the alarm.

He called the front desk: "There is no need to send someone over, it's because I didn't control my talent."

When the spiritual power threshold rises too fast, the spiritual power will occasionally leak from the Apocalypse.

This is particularly prominent in the combat-type Apocalypse.

He closed the door and looked around the room.

Sure enough, Lu Yan was not in the room, there was no sign of a fight here, and the quilts on the bed were neatly folded.

Even if 01 came, Tang Xun'an believed that with Lu Yan's state, even if 01 came to snatch him, it would be impossible for nothing to happen.

If nothing unexpected happened, he probably left by himself.

Tang Xun'an pursed his lips, feeling inexplicably anxious, but he still chose to close the door.

The time for signing the contract is 6:00 pm tomorrow, and we will gather at 2:00 pm.

Lu Yan has always been discreet, and should rush back before the assembly.

It's just that the fact that Lu Yan is not here makes him feel a little bad.

Although not all Apocalypse eat, the prevention and control center still prepares a good lunch.

Tang Xun'an pulled out a chair casually, sat down, looked up, and saw Zhou Qiming who was playing a game on the opposite side.

Zhou Qiming glanced at him: "Morning, Team Tang. Where's Dr. Lu?"

Tang Xun settled down: "I'm too tired, I haven't gotten up yet."

Lu Yan's message yesterday did say that he was too tired and wanted to take a rest.

For some unknown reason, the game console in Zhou Qiming's hand "clacked" and fell into the vegetable soup in front of him.

Next door, Yan Bei, who was whispering to Yuan Chen, had two small green flowers blooming above his head.

Yuan Chen put down the fork, and said slowly: "I have known you for so long, it seems that this is the first time I see you blooming green flowers, is it any different from other colors of flowers?"

Yanbei's special distortion did not hide it from other experimental subjects.

It's just that he has been in the research institute for many years, and he has only bloomed black and white flowers.

He was a little worried about Yanbei's health.

Yanbei lowered his eyes, and replied insincerely: "...I'm fine. Also, on this mission, you will meet hounds, and possibly firebirds. Can you really do it?"

Yuan Chen looked away: "I understand."

"They're already pollutants."

Yuan Chen replied: "So what about the pollutants? It's not Gu Zheng's fault. Even if others don't understand, I thought you at least—"

His voice rose uncontrollably, but fell silent again.

Because of the surroundings, someone has already looked over.

There are 03, 05, and 06 who participated in the mission this time, except 08. It is because the psychological assessor believes that 08 is not yet suitable to come out to perform tasks.

08 and 05 resisted equally. The difference is that 05 locked himself in the room and protested silently; 08 was uncontrollably angry and showed obvious violent tendencies, so that the staff had to impose restrictions on 08 again.

After being locked up in the First Research Institute for decades, Yuan Chen's temper has become very good.

At least, on the surface that is the case.

Lu Yan watched the sky light up, and walked out of the room at 8:00 in the morning.

Rabbit Butcher has fallen asleep in his pocket.

He is holding a butcher certificate, and if nothing else happens, at 12 o'clock tonight, he will be recognized as a "black butcher" by the rules of the underground world.

The advantage is that other slaughterhouse staff will not be wary of him. The downside is that if you encounter an Apocalypse, you are likely to be chased and beaten.

But in general, joining the "butcher camp" will be much more convenient than joining the "apocalypse camp".

Therefore, Lu Yan did not lose his work permit.

Unlucky humans will only randomly enter the other world between 0-6 midnight, so there will be much fewer butchers active during the day.

Lu Yan planned to take this opportunity to visit the slaughterhouse.

The entire slaughterhouse, with the city center of x as the core, covers an area of ​​nearly 200 square kilometers. The entrance is the pork alley that Lu Yan had seen before.

Because of the city lord's spatial ability, slaughterhouses all over the world actually have tunnels that allow other pollutants to come to the vegetable market to buy meat.

When he came to Pork Lane last time, Wang Yu held an umbrella for him. I'm so stupid now

Lu Yan had no choice but to pull down the curtain to cover it more tightly.

Although there are not many butchers here, unexpectedly, there are not many pollutants in the vegetable market.

Lu Yan's weirdness is not eye-catching among so many pollutants.

[In addition to recruiting many new butchers, the slaughterhouse also distributed leaflets around the world. It is said that the slaughterhouse will hold a meat banquet from 11.10 to 11.15, and buy meat with a 30% discount. ]

[Of course, these lingering pollutants cannot get out when the 11th comes. It was the cannon fodder Lu Zhi found for himself. ]

[This business, Lu Zhi knows that he is not very authentic. However, as long as all foreign pollutants are killed and then pushed to the head of the Apocalypse, the reputation of the slaughterhouse will still be clean. ]

The pollutants that come here to buy meat, except for the dead house like the city owner, or the high-level pollutants that demand special meat, are basically the pollutants that are not strong enough to go out to hunt.

This is one of the reasons why slaughterhouses are so confident.

During the day, the butchers are still sharpening their knives, because they look forward to hunting at night, and they seem to be full of energy.

In the middle of the vegetable market, there is an open space. On a red-hot oven, there is a pork that the butchers caught yesterday.

Lu Yan stood outside and listened for a while. It turned out that this meat pig was of the best quality, fat and strong. It was selected as the king of pigs and sold the highest price today. The butcher who hunted him was also rewarded by the slaughterhouse.

This meat pig was tied with a long and thin iron rod and strung from head to tail. Under the blazing fire, yellow grease dripped out.

The rabbit butcher poked his head out: "Does mom want to eat meat? I can exchange it with my own scissors."

There is no common currency for pollutants, and transactions are all barter.

Lu Yan shook his head: "I'm not hungry."

Except for Xicheng District, Lu Yan spent 12 hours walking through the entire slaughterhouse, knowing the scope of activities of the butchers here.

At eight o'clock in the evening, he returned to his room. He began to clean his weapon again.

But this time, he was chanting words, and if he leaned closer to listen, he might be able to hear many addresses.

In my mind, I constructed a map of the slaughterhouse. Some red dots lit up in different areas, and finally, they were connected in series through a thin white line. Just in a circle.

This is Lu Yan's hunt list.

...

...

For many people in City X, until 23:59 on the 10th, the world was no different from the past.

Although the news about the pollution disease on TV makes everyone panic. Those strange pollutants have also become the source of nightmares for many people. But in general, the world is normal.

Until the time was delayed by one minute and came to 0 o'clock.

Even though it was late at night, the sky above City X was lit up.

The bright one is red.

The author has something to say: [Tang Xun'an's Diary] (ooc, please do not substitute into the text)

****November 10, sunny

Yan Yan sneaked out.

Did you, did you go to see 07...

Small green flowers = lovelorn, bitter.
