Just as everyone was staring at Dodd Group and seeing what the Dodd Group reacted, news came out of Dodd Group that Sylvia was preparing to go to the shamanic holy mountain in the south of the wasteland. As for why he went to the shamanic holy mountain, there was no clear statement, but most people thought it must be for the issue of food.

However, all those who know the situation of shamanism in the southern part of the wasteland are not optimistic about Sylvia's decision, because since the shamanism and the wasteland tribes split into two parts, the tribes and shamanism in the southern part have become more and more conservative and increasingly hostile to the people and things in the north. With the endless jungles of the wasteland, they have almost completely cut off contact with the outside world, so many people think that Sylvia's trip is likely to return in vain.

Even normal people could see that going to the south of the wasteland was useless, but Sylvia still chose to do this. In the eyes of some people, this behavior seemed to imply that Sylvia was a little panicked now, so she became anxious to seek medical treatment. Therefore, she was thinking about it, and people who were ready to move began to appear and suppress the industry of the Dodd Group according to their own plans.

However, these people did not know that their every move was completely seen by Sylvia's backhand, and they recorded it carefully. At the same time, one countermeasure was also stimulated and began to turn into traps waiting for these people to run in by themselves.

However, some careful people can still find that those who began to think about emitting the collapse of the Dodd Group outside have fewer important forces, such as the US and Galician government, the Odorene city government, the Sky Church, etc. This makes this wave of actions against the Dodd Group huge, but it has not shaken the Dodd Group at all. The most obvious point is that the restrictions make the New Bodo area in the center still stable as usual, with no sign of panic.

All the intelligence against the Dodd Group's operations is summarized every day and handed over to Su, who temporarily takes over Sylvia's position, and Su will pass it through a universal recorder to Sylvia who has already gone to the wasteland for processing, so that even if Sylvia goes deep into the wasteland, he can still easily control the movements of the outside world.

"As you expected, Langton Steel was the first to attack," Sylvia looked at the information passed to the universal recorder, and said to Leo, who was dissecting a mutant monster next to him. "Are we just annexed Langton Steel and warned those guys, or wait and catch the net before fishing for larger fish?"

"It depends on your own plan." Leo responded briefly, took out a heart as big as a head from the monster's body and looked at it, then carefully used a scalpel to dig a piece of meat that was most active in his perception and put it into the test tube, and then continued the next step of dissection, while continuing: "I remember you mentioned that Langton Steel has some relationship with the Hill King Church. If Langton Steel continues to do it, it may involve the Hill King Church. This may be the result of encouraging the people of Langton Steel to want. Now our relationship with the Hill King Church is pretty good. If it becomes an enemy relationship with the Hill King Church because of Langton Steel, it will only make others happy."

"Why are you so sure that Langton Steel's behavior was not instructed by the Church of the Hill King?" Sylvia asked back.

Leo did not answer, but turned to look at Sylvia, as if he was telling Sylvia that it was necessary to answer?

Sylvia smiled, and did not ask any further. She quickly controlled the general recorder and passed on the treatment of Langton Steel.

As Leo said, there is no need to establish another church enemy, so before Langton Steel involves the Church of the Hill King in this battle, we will first use commercial means to solve Langton Steel, which will not only give those who are ready to move, but also avoid the expansion of things and make enemies unnecessary.

After dealing with the matter in his hand, Sylvia also squatted beside Leo, watching Leo break down the mutant monster like a hill into body parts, the internal organs, bones and even muscles were carefully decomposed and placed neatly on the ground.

It has been three days since he left Odorene. Leo and Sylvia did not follow the normal route to enter the wasteland along the trade road opened by the Northern Tribal Alliance, but instead directly took the two of them to the edge of the wasteland with their psychic wings.

The reason why Leo did not continue to use his psychic wings to fly to the holy mountain of the southern tribe was entirely because after entering the wasteland, he felt as if he had entered a psychic energy suppression field, and the psychic energy consumed by the same psychic skill increased by ten times.

However, it seems that this place is only targeted at psychic energy. The other powers in him are not affected by the surrounding environment, and Sylvia is also not affected.

According to the map, the place where the two of them landed was just within the territory of the Kingdom of Panier, not too far from the edge of the wasteland. However, because there are no formal roads, and they are mountain roads and primeval forests, it takes a little time to reach the predetermined location.

Sylvia chose to go to the saint mountain of Shamanism this time, which is commonly known as the Old Hunter Route. In fact, if you just rush, it is more appropriate to take the Mdor Plain. In addition to the flat road, there are also a large number of tribal camps on the route for road travelers to rest. In addition, because the tribe regularly clears mutant monsters on the plain, the road is relatively safer.

On the other hand, although the route of the old hunter is shorter than simply walking on the Mdor Plain, it requires you to pass through the Bran Forest, Cardson Swamp and the layers of mountains in the Kingdom of Panier. In terms of road conditions, it is obviously impossible to compare with the route on the plain. In addition, there are many mutant monsters here, so this road is even more difficult to walk.

The reason why this route still exists and is marked on the map is mainly because this route is indeed the most suitable route for hunters to walk. As long as you walk back and forth on this route, you don’t need to enter the wasteland at all. Those hunters who live on various wild animals can harvest enough prey. The economic value contained in this route makes people unable to bear to abandon it. I know that there are still some hunters hunting on this route now.

However, because of mutant monsters, hunters who are often blinded by their prey will eventually become prey of mutant monsters.

Leo and Sylvia only walked on this route for two days and saw no less than thirty fresh corpses. Each corpse represents an old hunter being hunted. And more than thirty different mutant monsters appeared together with these more than thirty corpses.

At first, Leo didn't care much about these mutant monsters. He felt that these mutant monsters were no different from those seen in Odorene and other places. However, as the number of hunts increased, he also felt that the mutant monsters here were obviously different from those outside.

The biggest difference is the shape. The mutated monsters outside have various strange and terrifying shapes, such as sarcoma all over their bodies, and monsters with various insects are inhabited by sarcoma. In short, all mutated monsters are strange forms that exceed human cognition.

But the monsters here are different. Although these monsters have become very large after mutating, and some organs have also undergone deformed changes, some of the characteristics of these monsters still retain the state of beasts before the mutation. Ordinary people can still identify which beasts these monsters were before the mutation from the details of the call, predation movements and other details.

If it were just a problem with appearance, it would not attract Leo's attention. The reason why he decided to decipher these mutant monsters was that he found that these mutant monsters seemed to have some wisdom and had some unknown connections with each other. What role could this connection have had? Leo has not yet figured out, but he is sure that this connection can be used to convey messages, such as a monster killer appears, everyone be careful of it.

Because, he found that the monsters he had hunted recently no longer attacked without any worries when he saw humans, but chose to escape, and the monster's face was full of fear. But the problem was that it was his first time meeting this monster, and he also disguised himself and Sylvia as ordinary people.

Leo did not think there was a problem with his disguise, because even if the monsters he encountered in the past were not disguised and covered with the blood of monsters, monsters would still attack them. The disguise would definitely not be the reason why the monsters escaped. Therefore, Leo felt that the reason why the monsters escaped was because they knew that Leo had the ability to hunt monsters, which ultimately made the monster choose to avoid and escape rather than attack.

In order to figure out the reason, Leo later killed each monster, then dissected it, checked the structures inside the monsters, and among these unraveled monsters, there are both ordinary monsters and seemingly wise monsters.

Through careful anatomy analysis, Leo quickly found the difference between ordinary monsters and mutant monsters, that is, the heart activity of mutant monsters is far greater than that of ordinary monsters, and there are also some mesh objects that look like tree roots attached to the cortical neural network of the mutant monster's brain. His spiritual network can clearly feel a brain wave-like energy fluctuation from these mesh objects. This may be the reason why these mutant monsters have a certain amount of wisdom and can convey messages.

Leo used witchcraft to clean up the dirt on his body and told Sylvia his discovery. After hearing this, Sylvia's expression became a little serious, because this was not a trivial matter, but a major event that affected the entire situation in the world of Viron.

Originally, these mutant monsters were already very difficult to deal with. With the current human power, they could only hide in towns and areas. Most of the land outside was occupied by these mutant monsters.

Because mutant monsters have no wisdom and just follow instincts, this allows humans to set up various traps and use various targeted tools to hunt down mutant monsters whose overall qualities are far superior to those of humans.

But if the mutant monster gains wisdom, then humans may become vulnerable in front of the mutant monsters with wisdom and power. At that time, bad news will probably come from all over the world that humans gather to fall.

Thinking of this, Sylvia couldn't help asking seriously: "Is this kind of intelligent monster the norm?"

"It shouldn't be." Leo shook his head, but then changed his subject and said: "But it has already reached a certain scale, and these monsters have formed a group through their own traits..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused for a moment, with a thoughtful look on his face, as if he had thought of something.

Seeing Leo's expression, Sylvia waited for a while before asking, "Did you think of something?"

Leo nodded and said, "I did think of something. I know that a powerful intelligent creature can use a certain fungus to invade other organs. Then the fungus will infect the biological thinking center, such as the human brain, the Vito prokaryotic organisms, etc., forming a fungal net to control the infected person's thinking. Generally speaking, if the infected person is a smart creature, then another personality may be produced, causing a pseudo-personal division. Knowing that one personality kills another personality will end this state, and those non-intelligent creatures will be completely parasiticly controlled and become puppets controlled by the powerful intelligent creature."

"You mean these wise mutant monsters are all manipulated puppets?" Sylvia asked confirmationally.

Leo nodded, then squatted down and checked the mesh covered by the cerebral cortex, trying to use a scalpel to cut this mesh from the cerebral cortex, but a large number of filaments extending out of these mesh and penetrate the cerebral cortex, fusing the mesh and the monster's brain together, and it is impossible to separate it through cutting.

"Since you can't separate, just take the whole brain away." Sylvia suggested.

Leo nodded, took out a box from the storage space, put his brain together with the entire monster head into the box, and said to Sylvia: "We'll stay here for a day, I need to make a rune magic circle to see if these monsters are puppets as I think."

Sylvia did not object to this, and searched it quickly on the map and soon found a nearby cabin built by a hunter in the past.
