Ding! Automatic collection successful, obtained [Super Crystal Core] *1500, [Delicious Big Fish] *1, [Fragrant Tough Meat] *500, [Black Mist Spray] *10...
[Delicious Big Fish]: A rare tender and non-toxic big fish (500kg), seemingly swallowed recently and not yet digested.
[Fragrant Tough Meat]: The meat of the giant octopus is too tough for humans to use, but it possesses strong attraction for other mutated creatures and can be used as bait.
[Black Mist Spray]: Creates a targeted black mist that lasts for 10 minutes.
When Zhang Chen returned to the lounge chair, the giant octopus's mist had slowly dissipated, and the prompts appeared simultaneously.
On the other side, many of the cult followers were still stunned by Zhang Chen's swift defeat of the mountain-like terrifying monster.
Zhang Wenwen had already jumped from the rooftop and was rushing towards the vaporized body of the giant octopus.
Among all the True God Cult followers, Zhang Wenwen was undoubtedly the most devout.
Some people might still be wondering how there could be survivors inside the body of such a large octopus.
Even if there were survivors, they would probably be dead!
Moreover, this octopus had just appeared, so how did Zhang Chen discover it...
While everyone was still thinking with logic and reason.
Zhang Wenwen had already taken action.
Just as she reached the octopus's body, a figure rapidly descended from the air.
Zhang Wenwen leaped upwards, caught the figure, and then unloaded the momentum, landing softly on the ground.
It was a black-haired woman.
At this moment, the woman was on the verge of death, her face pale.
Several doctors and nurses immediately rushed over and carried the woman into the room for rescue.
Zhang Wenwen, however, frowned and stood there lost in thought.
Because she noticed that the woman had no ring on her hand...
Around two or three in the afternoon.
Zhang Chen slowly woke up.
He had lunch and then went to the library where the True God Cult headquarters was located.
Zhang Wenwen and the others were already waiting there.
"True God, you are awake!"
Zhang Wenwen winked at Su Xue beside her.
The latter quickly brought a cup of tea and said softly:
"Please have some tea, True God!"
"Mhm, thank you!" Zhang Chen took a sip and placed it aside.
Another Saintess immediately stepped forward, took the teacup with both hands, and received it.
"It's not easy to find tea leaves in the apocalypse!"
Zhang Chen said with a smile.
He recalled that there was milk tea in this world, but he hadn't actually discovered any tea leaves.
It was possible that the milk tea in this world was not the same as milk tea on Earth.
"It's indeed not easy. I haven't found any tea leaves in this world either. This tea was discovered in that survivor's backpack!"
Zhang Wenwen said.
"That survivor?"
Zhang Chen then remembered that there was a survivor in the belly of the giant octopus, so he asked:
"Has he woken up? Take me to see him!"
"Mmm... but..." Zhang Wenwen said with some difficulty.
"Mhm?" Zhang Chen looked up at Zhang Wenwen.
"But she has no ring on her hand, which is very unusual!"
"I've already sent people to monitor her at all times, and all her belongings have been confiscated, including her clothes!"
"The clothes she's wearing now were changed for her by me!"
Zhang Wenwen explained.
"No ring on her hand? Could she be a native?"
"Hurry and take me to see her!"
Zhang Chen's eyes lit up.
He hadn't expected to find the native he had been searching for so hard so easily?
Was it this smooth?!
Zhang Wenwen quickly led Zhang Chen to a small reading room.
At this moment, the woman had vomited the seawater from her lungs and eaten some food, her physical strength had recovered a lot.
However, for safety reasons, she was still tied to a chair.
In the room, Fan Yiyi, accompanied by two Saintesses and four guards, was watching over her.
Upon seeing the True God arrive, they quickly bowed.
"Greetings, True God!"
"Mhm!" Zhang Chen let out a soft hum as a response.
In the past, when he encountered followers of the True God Cult greeting him, he would always respond with a smile and a nod.
But now, living with Zhang Wenwen's True God Cult, he encountered followers almost every time he went out.
Even walking a few steps during the day or entering a building, people would greet him constantly.
Sometimes, if he walked around and met thousands of people greeting him, he would have to nod thousands of times... it was too much...
So he decided to just hum.
At this moment, Zhang Chen realized that the so-called domineering CEO wasn't just about being domineering; rather, if he wasn't a bit aloof, his cervical spine would really suffer.
"What's the situation now?"
Zhang Wenwen asked.
Fan Yiyi ordered the remaining people to keep an eye on the woman, then pulled Zhang Wenwen and Zhang Chen outside the room, closing the door.
She then whispered:
"This woman has been muttering about wanting to see a god. We asked her for descriptions of this god."
"Unlike the True God, the god she speaks of has several appearances, but they all carry a box."
"She also said this is the realm of gods!"
"I think her mind is a bit off!"
Zhang Wenwen frowned and pondered for a moment.
She was very sensitive to the word "god."
In her opinion, the only true god was Zhang Chen, and the people around him were borderline divine.
But now, someone suddenly claimed there were other gods, which made her unwilling to accept it.
Initially, Zhang Wenwen subconsciously wanted to label the woman as a heretic and have her purified.
But seeing Zhang Chen's interest in this woman, she changed her question to:
"So... did she say how she got into the giant octopus's stomach?"
Fan Yiyi quickly replied:
"I just asked. She was quite cooperative; she answered whatever we asked, but the credibility of her words is questionable!"
"She said she came from another world."
"After crossing over, she appeared on the sea."
"At that time, a big fish tried to eat her, and then the giant octopus suddenly appeared and swallowed both the big fish and her."
"After an unknown amount of time, when she woke up, she was here!"
Zhang Chen nodded in agreement upon hearing Fan Yiyi's words, saying:
"Indeed, there was a big fish in the belly of the Abyss Tentacle. She wasn't lying about that."
"But she came from another world? How could she possess the ability to traverse space?"
Fan Yiyi replied:
"I asked that question too. She said that when the god came to this world before, he gave them something that could open the gate to the realm of gods."
"If they encountered insurmountable danger, they should use this item to seek refuge from the god in the realm of gods."
Saying that, Fan Yiyi took out two metal rods from the woman's backpack.
Hiss...
Looking at the metal rods, Zhang Chen gasped. This thing looked so much like a signal beacon!
