In the room, Wen Yu was organizing the items in his Spatial Ring. After a while, it seemed he thought of something and directly took out his communicator to call Carmel.
“Beep... beep... beep...”
After a few beeping sounds, the communicator on the other end connected.
“Is that Wen Yu?”
Carmel’s gentle voice came through.
“It’s me. When will you be able to arrive?”
“I might not be able to make it in a short time. I ran into a situation here in Europe.”
“Hmm...”
Wen Yu contemplated for a moment.
“How long is a short time?”
“It could take a month. I found an amazing material in Spain, a super large mutated beast. I’m currently following it. Shh... it seems like it saw me...”
Wen Yu suddenly heard silence from Carmel on the other end.
After a while, Carmel’s voice came back.
“A month might be an understatement; that big gorilla is running too fast...”
Wen Yu fell silent, and after a moment, he seriously reminded her: “You still have your hunting team to deal with. You won’t be able to come before the demonic disaster. I might not be able to help you.”
“It’s fine. I’ll contact you when the time comes. I’ll hang up now; it’s running far away.”
After Carmel finished speaking, she directly hung up, leaving Wen Yu with a black line on his forehead.
During his interactions with Carmel, Wen Yu had already discovered that this girl named Carmel had an extraordinary obsession with painting, and she was also lucky; her professional system was related to painting.
Now that she had found a high-quality material, Carmel decisively delayed her plan to go to Las Vegas, even neglecting the threat from the hunting team.
...
Wen Yu thought again about the matters at hand and suddenly realized that, with the demonic disaster approaching, he had nothing much to do anymore.
The defense circle in Las Vegas was entirely managed by Klaus and Victor. The newcomers, like Qin Tian, were either resting in their rooms or going out to wander, or actively asking to help Klaus build Las Vegas.
He opened the soul realm space again and took a quick look at Victor’s injuries.
Victor’s injuries had healed by now, but he didn’t want to come out—there was no difference whether Victor came out or not, as long as the dual body was there.
Summarizing his existing strength, Wen Yu walked to the coffee table, sipping red wine while slowly pondering the new combat mode he discovered while fighting Walter in the ranking battle.
...
Time passed, and there were still seven days left before the demonic disaster began.
The construction of the walls of Las Vegas was almost complete. Victor had driven the mutated beast swarm out of the wall range of Las Vegas, making the mutated beasts the first line of defense for Las Vegas.
After all, while high-level mutated beasts were manageable, low-level mutated beasts followed their instincts for eating, drinking, and other needs. Recently, the city was filled with the waste of mutated beasts, and the entire Las Vegas was reeking.
Driving the mutated beasts out of the city had another benefit: food.
If they helped with the construction, the food mainly came from the stored supplies in Las Vegas. It hadn’t been long, and the food in Las Vegas was already running low. Allowing them to leave the city and restore their previous ecological circle was good news.
Victor didn’t care what the mutated beasts ate; for animals, it was instinctive for wolves to eat sheep. When Victor previously formed the mutated beast coalition, the food for the coalition was those old and weak mutated beasts.
...
After sending the mutated beasts away, Victor immediately ran to Wen Yu’s room.
Then, the dual body appeared before Wen Yu like an illusion, gradually becoming fainter until it disappeared.
At the same time, Victor transmitted a spiritual wave to Wen Yu in the fifth soul realm.
“Wen Yu, Wen Yu, let me out! I'm going to suffocate in here.”
Wen Yu didn’t dare to neglect this; this cat was inherently proud and didn’t even call him big boss anymore, directly using his name.
