Chapter 495 - 489: The Gu Cultivation Plan
Emperor Dragon City.
Inside the meeting room.
The Life Pattern Masters of Dragon Country are discussing how to deal with the rampaging Gourmands.
All over the world, Gourmands are wreaking havoc. For now, Dragon Country is the only safe place.
However, the safety of Dragon Country won’t last much longer.
According to the latest intelligence, a tide of Gourmands is already moving towards Dragon Country.
Once the Gourmands form a tide similar to a swarm of desert army ants, then Dragon Country will be consumed entirely by the Gourmand tide, leaving not even a trace behind.
Although Dragon Country is very powerful, it cannot easily deal with all the Gourmands.
Representatives from Nine Cities spoke freely, expressing their views on eliminating the Gourmands.
However, they are only making suggestions; no one is making a decision.
Because everyone knows that the final plan will be made by the Dean.
As for whether the Dean will accept their suggestions, that is not something they can decide.
While everyone is engaged in a heated discussion, Jian Bing, Zhi Ming, Ling Guang, and Meng Zhang walk in carrying four briefcases.
Arriving at the meeting room, Meng Zhang doesn’t hesitate and says directly: "The Dean’s research has made the latest progress. At the same time, the Dean has devised a way to solve the Gourmand problem once and for all."
Saying this, Meng Zhang takes out a stack of maps, distributing them to the Life Pattern Masters present, saying: "These are the latest plans. Our task is to place the contents of the cases at the designated locations as quickly as possible."
Everyone attending this meeting, aside from some high-ranking officials, is a top Life Pattern Master from the Nine Cities.
The Life Pattern Masters in attendance open the maps and find that they are maps of the neighboring Ah San Country.
On the map, numerous red dots are marked.
"We just place the contents of the boxes on the map spots?" a Life Pattern Master asks somewhat confusedly.
Meng Zhang replies: "That’s correct. Our task is to place the contents of the boxes at the designated locations; the rest will be handled by others."
Everyone listens to Meng Zhang’s words, feeling confused as if in a fog.
At this moment, someone curious asks: "What exactly is in these boxes?"
After this question is raised, all the Life Pattern Masters present focus their attention on the boxes in their hands.
Those who attend the meeting are all insiders.
Since they are insiders, there is nothing to hide.
Meng Zhang naturally opens the boxes, allowing the Life Pattern Masters present to see the contents inside.
They see that the boxes contain a thick, bright red liquid resembling blood.
However, upon closer inspection, these substances faintly emit a rainbow-colored glow.
At this moment, Meng Zhang reveals the answer.
He says: "Each box contains seven vials of lures. These twenty-eight lures are formed by purifying the blood of the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon."
"If we compare the Gourmands to zombies, then these twenty-eight lures are the most primitive zombie virus."
"No Gourmand can resist these lures."
"The Dean’s plan, called the Gu Breeding Plan, involves dispersing these twenty-eight lures throughout Ah San Country. These lures will attract all the Gourmands to Ah San territory."
"All the Gourmands will devour each other, competing for these lures. In the end, only twenty-eight of the strongest Gourmands will remain after mutual devouring."
"These twenty-eight strongest Gourmands will obtain these twenty-eight lures..."
Meng Zhang’s voice abruptly stops at this point.
The Life Pattern Masters in the meeting room are engrossed in listening. Who would have thought Meng Zhang would stop speaking midway?
"And then?" a Life Pattern Master asks urgently.
Meng Zhang shakes his head, replies: "There is no ’then’?"
"These twenty-eight strongest Gourmands, after devouring the lures, will surely become even more powerful."
"At that point, can we handle these twenty-eight most powerful Gourmands?" A Life Pattern Master raises the critical issue.
Being cut by a hundred knives is death, being hit by a cannon is also death; it is just a different way to die.
One cannot solve a small problem by creating a few big problems.
Everyone wants to know the dean’s follow-up solution for these twenty-eight strongest Gourmands. Unfortunately, Meng Zhang stops halfway.
In fact, it’s not that Meng Zhang doesn’t want to say more; he only knows this much.
The dean told Meng Zhang only up to this point, and even Meng Zhang doesn’t know the rest of the plan, so naturally, he cannot tell them.
"I only know this. The dean hasn’t told me the follow-up plan!"
"However, since the dean has devised such a plan, he surely has a way to deal with the strongest twenty-eight Gourmands."
"We must trust the dean."
After Meng Zhang’s words, the Life Pattern Masters, who originally had many questions, suddenly fall silent!
Indeed!
If they don’t trust the dean, who can they trust?
"Meng Zhang, when do we act?" a Life Pattern Master asks first.
Meng Zhang immediately responds: "Act immediately, seven people per team, led by the four of us. You may join whichever team you prefer."
"The four teams are responsible for the east, south, west, and north directions, respectively. These red dots cover the entire territory of Ah San Country, with a vast area."
"The task is heavy, but within three days, we must place all the lures at the designated spots. Is there any problem?"
Upon hearing Meng Zhang’s words, the Life Pattern Masters immediately declare that there are no problems.
Soon, a special task force is formed, with Meng Zhang, Jian Bing, Zhi Ming, and Ling Guang as team leaders and the elite Life Pattern Masters from the Nine Cities of Dragon Country as members.
They each carry a box containing their lures and head to their predetermined map locations.
The dean’s Gu Breeding Plan turns Ah San Country’s land into a cauldron for nurturing Gu.
These Gourmands are being treated as Gu insects, and in their mutual slaughter, a Poisonous Insect King can be born.
However, once the Poisonous Insect King appears, being able to control it is another matter!
Keep in mind that after such prolonged devouring, these Gourmands have developed at an astonishing rate.
The majority of Gourmands are already Tier Four, Tier Five, and some are even at Tier Four Peak.
The reason these powerful Gourmands haven’t broken through to Tier Three isn’t that they lack the capability.
It’s because of the limitations imposed by the world’s barriers.
The Real World still doesn’t allow breakthroughs to Tier Three.
Not to mention these Gourmands, even someone as talented as Little Sister-in-law, with her extraordinary opportunities, hasn’t broken through to Tier Three either.
