[Ding! Detected that the host has discovered the wastnd world. Transmitting relevant survival rules and information rted to the wastnd world! ]


    Just as David stepped out of the door, the system''s voice sounded again. Soon after, a flood of information surged into his mind like a tide. Quickly, Davidprehensively understood the survival rules of the wastnd world and all rted information.


    In reality, the wastnd world had always existed, separate from the apocalypse.


    After Danny forcibly initiated the second red light, the signs of the wastnd world emerged, allowing espers from the apocalypse to enter this realm. The courtyard was the intermediary to ess the wastnd world.


    Here, both levels and resources werepletely different from the outside, as David''s level eleven had been achieved here. Thus, within the apocalypse, his strength wasparable to a level twelve supernatural powerhouse. The various grade crystals he had collected in the apocalypse were almost ineffective to David now. Instead, a resource called "pronucleus" took their ce. pronucleus came in primary, intermediate, advanced, and supreme grades, each possessing different energies.


    Espers could absorb these pronucleus to elevate their levels and strength. pronucleus, in turn, could be obtained by hunting various zombies and monsters in the wastnd world. Recalling this information, David nodded to himself. He also understood the survival rules here ,and endless ughter.


    To survive here, every esper had to be a killing machine. The bloodlust prevalent in the apocalypse was merely the most basic survival rule here. To stand firm, one had topletely mold themselves into a ruthless killer. In David''s words, the apocalypse was like a wolf''s den, while the wastnd world was a terrifying abyss. To thrive, he had to y every zombie creature lurking within it.


    Thinking this, David''s expression gradually turned serious.


    [Ding! New mission issued! ]


    [Hunt thirty wastnd creatures within three days, gaining insight into the secrets of the Bug Race''s heart.]


    [Rewards will be random! ]


    The system''s announcement of a new mission sounded in David''s ears. "Hunt thirty wastnd creatures in three days?" David found this number somewhat wry. He had only just begun to grasp the survival rules of the wastnd world and had no knowledge about the deeper-seated zombie creatures. Under these circumstances, how was he supposed to proceed?


    Furthermore, David''s attention was drawn to the "Bug Race''s heart." He remembered that Danny had mentioned it earlier, implying that it must be a valuable treasure. If he didn''t understand it well, how could the bulky man be willing to risk his life for it?


    However, David didn''t have time to dwell on these thoughts. He knew that any mission issued by the system would bring him considerable gains. What mattered most now was his team. As he embarked on this new journey within the wastnd world, what was to be of the members of the Ember Squad?


    David understood that with their current strengths, they wouldn''tst a minute in this world. He needed to find a way to safely settle his team members. After ncing once more at the ferocious energies deep within the wastnd terrain, David turned and disappeared into the void.


    As David departed, the ck bug he had pped to the ground moments ago suddenly fluttered its wings and took flight again. While flying, its body emitted a luminous color. Eventually, the bugnded in a forested area deep within the wastnd world.


    Looking around, the forest was filled with nests of various sizes, countless bugs flying around, blotting out the sky like a swarm of dark clouds...


    "Are you okay?" Sally rushed up to David as he returned.


    "David, what happened? How did that eerie ce appear?" Other team members also approached, asking with concern. After all, each of them had survived in the apocalypse for a long time. Seeing a cepletely different from the apocalypse was truly astonishing for them. Coupled with the intense malevolent aura permeating the Wastnd world, everyone present knew it was undoubtedly a dangerous ce.


    Seeing the eager expressions of his teammates, David gave a faint smile. "It''s fine, it''s just a world coexisting with the apocalypse, a world coexisting with the apocalypse?" When everyone heard David''s exnation, they became even more baffled.


    So, David roughly exined the survival rules of the Wastnd world to them. Everyone''s faces turned grave. In David''s words, they detected a danger beyond theirprehension. They all looked up at David, only to find him asposed as ever, seemingly unbothered by the dangers of the Wastnd world.


    "So, are you going to enter the Wastnd world next?" Sally asked.


    Without hesitation, David nodded. The apocalypse no longer posed any challenge for him. Moreover, he felt that in the Wastnd world, he could uncover more secrets and even achieve a qualitative improvement in his strength.


    Seeing David''s confirmation, Sally''s expression becameplex. She didn''t want David to be in constant danger. The thought of it was tormenting for her. However, considering David''s formidable strength, she found herself at a loss for words.


    Naturally, David understood Sally''s thoughts. "Don''t worry, I''ll take care of myself." With that, he turned to Duane.


    After leaving the courtyard and under Fatso''s shameless invitation, Shirley ended up joining them at the base. Since Duane was also eager to learn more about the second red light and the deste world, he followed them here. Currently, Fatso was enthusiastically cleaning a gene fruit, presenting it to Shirley with a wagging tail. However, Shirley was engrossed in ying with C andpletely ignored Fatso''s overtures.


    David smiled and said to Duane, "The second red light won''t appear again in the future, but the existence of the deste world is even more terrifying than the second red light. There''s something I hope to get your help with." Duane was slightly puzzled upon hearing that David needed his assistance. He nodded in agreement.


    "Whatever it is, just tell me. I''ll do my best to help." The others also looked curiously at David, wondering what he was about to say.


    "I hope to use your team''s cameras to locate the city''s entire horde of zombies." David''s statement left Duane momentarily confused. Why would they want to find the entire horde of zombies? Normally, everyone avoided zombies, so why would David be actively seeking them?


    Not only Duane, but the others were also puzzled by David''s words. David exined with a calm tone, "Find them and kill them."
