The Ultimate Evolution
chapter-725

Be it those bloodthirsty dinosaurs or government officials, they all felt an extreme headache when dealing with the organized chaos and corruption of base 13. Regardless of any efficient attempt to clean up the city, a single leakage always resulted in the dreadful and unfortunate scene of an empty city with nothing to gain.

Hence, lawlessness ran rampant in this territory.

In this place, money was everything. Nothing here was unpurchasable by merchants, and the merchants were unafraid of hoarding anything as well. The only law here was military might, adequate military might.....

Zi appeared to be fairly accustomed to his place. She first halted at a sand dune near the outskirts of base 13 city. After a brief search, she utilized her force energy to flip over a boulder.

Beneath the boulder, was a covered well. Yet upon stepping onto it, it would descend like an elevator.

Only Zi and Archeaphill was aware of this place. A secret cell where upon entry, one could view an array of close to 50 perfect dinocrystals that were glimmering majestically!

In addition to that, numerous special weapons manufactured for hunting dinosaurs could be seen. These were weapons that couldn't be brought out of this world. Hence, they were all stored in this world.

As Zi inspected these objects, she turned vacant momentarily; probably reminiscing her dead comrade who had entered this cell with her previously....

During then, she still possessed an indomitable party, but now, she was a loner. Facing such an overwhelming contrast, one could tell how strong a woman Zi was as she refrained from shedding any tears.

Following that, she casually retrieved about 10 perfect dinocrystals and placed them into her personal storage. The next step was to bring Sheyan and the rest into base 13.

Only back in the peaceful nightmare realm, could one squander a fixed amount of utility points to remodel one's image. Furthermore, the price of remodelling would increase with every time.

Thus, for the sake of masquerading themselves, the contestant quartet resorted to manual makeup to prevent others from recognizing them. Of course, once a fight happens, their symbolic weapons and abilities would immediately betray them.

As an expert in urban warfare, disguising himself was naturally a piece of cake for Brother Black. As for Reef, growing up in a polished culture aided him in the art of masqueration greatly.

In contrast, Sheyan was completely at a loss. His actions were clumsy as he failed in his attempts to mimic the other two in smearing substances onto his face.

While preparing to doll herself up, Zi noticed Sheyan's procrastinating self and stormed over swift and decisively. She frowned and asked.

"What's the matter?"

The impression she released was that of a female chairman noticing a problem in her subordinate's work, and thus heading over to question with a deliberate flare of dignified reprimandation.

Sheyan reclined back and honestly replied.

"My apologies, this makeup stuff is tough."

Zi sighed helplessly addressed Sheyan to sit down. She then bent over and started smearing Sheyan's face with various substances.

Sheyan sat while Zi leaned in to help him, and the distance between them became extremely close. He immediately caught scent of a mild fragrance and obviously wasn't aware that was the poison king perfume by Dior. He could only feel strands of allurement permeating into his inner thoughts, as the enticing fragrance blended with the bodily scent of a female.

Feeling rather unnatural at this moment, he slanted his eyes down only to notice the pristine fair skin near the chest of Zi's stooping posture. Her fair skin was like exquisite and delicate porcelain. He could observe a milky satiny allurement swelling down into a deep crevice, as he immediately felt as though there were ants in his pants.

In contrast, Zi wasn't aware that her scenes of springtime were being divulged. She was always incredibly meticulous in her tasks.

After dolling Sheyan up, she turned to leave. In this moment, Sheyan felt a sense of disappointment and frustration but quickly dispersed such thoughts, warning himself not get involved with such things.

Nevertheless, he could understand the main reason why Zeus was so intoxicated with Zi previously.

The desire to successfully subdue such a haughty and temperamental woman was indeed intensified out of the ordinary.

However, Sheyan firmly believed that Zi was hiding an essential secret with regards to Reef.

To a contestant, feelings and emotions would frequently be tangled up with benefits and interests.

Soon after, the gang of four peacefully slipped into the city of base 13.

While in this area, Zi would casually greet individuals along the way, resembling that of Sheyan's familiarity with Port Royal and Tortuga port.

In this world, the trio had previously acquired some battle spoils. For example, some dinocrystals and that living boss Velociraptor. These objects were all useless to Sheyan and must be exchanged to increase their battle capabilities.

Excluding those, Brother Black was sick of employing those two trashy guns. Furthermore, the 'Peluba Shock Rifle' had bluntly imploded a previous battle, while the vibrations of the 'Shamier Jolting Gun' was starting to affect himself after using it for two times...

Under Zi's recommendations, the gang of four rode a black coach to a particular shop. Sheyan directly offloaded his remaining dinocrystals (he gained some from those Shadowdrill Deinonychus) and that boss Velociraptor. In addition to those two trashy guns, the trio actually managed to acquire an item known as 'Dinosaur Gene Enhancing Dosage'.

This dosage could unexpectedly be injected to receive 3 free attribute points! However, it would only be effective the first time. If used again, it would forcibly reduce basic attribute points instead.

Of course, Sheyan didn't devour this dosage for himself. Zi generously offered two perfect dinocrystals in exchange for another two dosages. After all, the trio rescued her and should have a share of benefits as well. Still, one could tell how valuable those perfect dinocrystals were.

Theoretically speaking, perfect dinocrystals were exceptionally useful can could be described as invaluable. Although some merchants made artificial dinocrystals as well, their valuation, as compared to natural ones, was akin to the difference between heaven and earth.

At this moment, Sheyan was rather puzzled. Since there were merchants creating artificial dinocrystals, why did the price of natural dinocrystals continue inflating? Nevertheless, Zi offered a simple explanation that left him speechless.

"Since there are artificial diamonds in the real world, why is the price of natural diamonds still so exorbitant?"

The shop owner then explained to Sheyan. Artificial dinocrystals contain very limited energy. Just like batteries, they could only be utilized for trivial features. It was a far cry from the standards of natural dinocrystals that could be utilized for extensive endeavours.

The contestant quartet chatted briefly while the shop owner made a phone call. Then, an assistant left for a while before returning, and spoke to Zi in a low tone.

"Beautiful madam, the one you are seek does frequent here often. His primary business partner is the munitions dealer known as Rockzard. I reckon the latest military equipments circulating around is related to him, but it has only been 20 hours since he last visited our turf."

Actually, Zi had harbored a doubtful attitude in gathering intelligence from this place, yet little did she expect, she actually managed to tap onto Lieutenant Colonel Wester's trail here.

Upon hearing this information, Sheyan was stirred and muttered.

"Since he frequently smuggles such striking and bulky goods, there should be a stopover or lodging area."

That assistant glanced at Sheyan but remained silent. Zi then tossed a tiny dinocrystal to him, where he finally whispered with a quick tone.

"If you're looking for Lieutenant Colonel Wester, the package room is definitely in one of Old Hyenna's motel."

Sheyan looked down and indifferently suggested.

"I guess it's time we pay a visit to that place."

Zi nodded and replied.

"Then what're we still waiting for?"

In reality, Old Hyena wasn't an old man, but a thin and bald male. Sporadic bushes of hair scattered throughout his oily and shiny bald head, like stars cupping around the moon. Logically speaking, he should've gotten a shave, but instead, he sorely cherished every strand of hair that was left. Perhaps, it was a fetish for hair. One could simply imagine his appearance, a truly unforgettable appearance.

Furthermore, it wasn't only his comedic exterior. Even his style was equally striking, and practically seem like an old, famished and greedy hyena. Once there was benefits to be gained, he would spare no effort to pounce forward.

When the gang of four spotted Old Hyena, he was presently dozing off serenely on the motel's reception desk.

After the gang strolled to his front, Old Hyena unexpectedly remained asleep. The annoyed Reef then impatiently nudged him slightly.

To his surprise, Old Hyena simply slumped to the ground. His twisted neck immediately indicated he was a dead man!

Noticing this scene, Brother Black reflexively retreated many steps back and quietly vanished into a dark corner. As a marksman, he definitely couldn't reveal himself openly to his opponents. The only way to determine a marksman's position, was by analyzing the direction and timing of his bullets.

On the contrary, Zi snorted and trudged into the motel before the rest. Although she was a mage type Growth-Hunter, she never feared engaging in close combat with her foes.

In spite of that, Reef quickly sprinted ahead of her as he stayed true to his calling as an MT.
