Spiritual Energy Revival: Transform Into a Divine Phoenix, Automatically Upgrade

56: Chapter 56 Yang’an Village! The Elders’ DoubtsHalf an hour later, a village appeared not far ahead of the moving heavy truck—Yangguan Village.

The twenty-meter-long heavy truck did not drive into the village; instead, it stopped on a muddy path not far from the village entrance. It was surrounded by a dense forest, making it difficult to spot the large truck unless one came very close.

”Brother Zhang, is it really okay to park the truck here? If someone comes by and discovers the demons in the cargo hold... we’ll spend the rest of our lives in prison...”

After the two men got out, dark-skinned Old Wang looked at the heavy truck with worry. Although the group of demons in the large cargo hold was dangerous, it was also their opportunity to make a fortune.

If anyone discovered what was inside, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Brother Zhang also looked worried, but after surveying the surrounding environment, it didn’t look like anyone would be coming by anytime soon.

”It’s fine. We’re only leaving for a short while. We’ll come back as soon as we check the situation on the roads outside Jianghai City from the village.”

”Alright...”

The two men left, looking back every few steps, until their figures disappeared down the muddy path. Then, a figure poked out from the dense forest and timidly approached the cargo hold.

”Damn it, it’s a good thing I was taking a dump here, otherwise I would have really missed the chance to get rich! These two snuck in and parked such a big truck here; there must be treasure in the cargo hold!”

A man with a mean and cunning face looked up and down at the massive cargo hold in front of him. It was his first time seeing such a large cargo hold.

The goods transported in such a large cargo hold must be very valuable!

Then, his eyes shifted, and he saw several huge steel locks on the cargo hold, along with several meters of chains.

”Good thing I have tools at home...”

He then ran toward the village.

Inside Yangguan Village, crowds were gathering in the central square, where a civilian helicopter was parked.

”Oh ho, is that the reporter from Jianghai City? She really is beautiful!”

”I really wish I could make her my Zhu family’s daughter-in-law...”

”Old Zhang, why don’t you take a piss and look at your own reflection? How could your Zhu family have the fortune to marry such a great beauty?”

”Can’t I just dream about it?!”

”Heh heh...”

Most of the people in the village now were elderly; there were very few young adults.

A beautiful reporter in professional attire and her interview team found the elderly village chief.

”Hello, Village Chief. We are an interview team from Jianghai City. May I ask... why are there still dozens of people in Yangguan Village who haven’t gone to Jianghai City?”

”Did the Jianghai City authorities not notify you that the wilderness is very dangerous now, and that the population of towns near the mountains and forests needs to be relocated?”

”If you folks have mobility issues, the Jianghai City authorities will provide a motorcade to escort you to the city.”

The beautiful female reporter and her team were very confused.

A month after spiritual energy appeared on Blue Star, humans gradually discovered its evolutionary effect on animals and immediately ordered all towns near mountain areas to relocate.

This decision was made by countries all over Blue Star, and the people-oriented Great Xia Kingdom was no exception.

Furthermore, one must know that there is a Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle outside Jianghai City that is as powerful as a monster. Although Yangguan Village is over a hundred kilometers away from Divine Phoenix Mountain, they speculate that it would take the White-Feathered Giant Eagle less than half an hour to fly here!

Staying here is simply too dangerous!

The village chief of Yangguan Village, his face full of deep wrinkles, leaned on his cane and said with a chuckle.

”You city folks just love to worry about nothing...”

”It’s just that the wild animals have grown a bit larger. Let me tell you, young lady, I’ve hunted tigers in my youth. Not long ago, a large wild boar broke into the village, and didn’t we villagers just kill it together in a few strikes?”

”And that wild boar meat... it didn’t even have that gamey smell like before; it tasted surprisingly good...”

Speaking of this, the elderly in the village swallowed their saliva, clearly agreeing with the village chief.

This left the female reporter and her team dumbfounded.

Because not long ago, that White-Feathered Giant Eagle had hunted a large wild boar the size of a small truck, and that wild boar had been extremely fierce!

Could the elderly in Yangguan Village really be that ferocious in combat?!

They didn’t even have weapons or equipment; if they really hunted that kind of large wild boar, wouldn’t they be even fiercer than the special forces of the Great Xia Kingdom?!

When the people of Yangguan Village saw they didn’t believe them, someone quickly dragged out a huge white skeleton. The elderly in the village seemed to have deliberately kept the main wild boar skeleton intact without taking it apart.

It was indeed, as the village chief said, a wild boar of huge size; if it were complete, it would weigh at least four or five hundred jin.

But this was far from as big as that wild boar the size of a small truck...

Reporter Wang Xiaoli looked at the proud village chief, her expression somewhat unnatural. ”Village Chief, sir... listen to me. Some of the beasts outside Jianghai City are two or three times larger than this wild boar. We are media reporters and would absolutely not lie to you. You really should leave here as soon as possible!”

The elderly village chief and the old men around him all showed expressions of disdain.

”You little girl, you look so pretty, but I didn’t expect you to talk nonsense all day! How can there be animals in this world several times larger than a four or five hundred jin wild boar?!”

”Even a bear isn’t that big!”

”These city folks are truly black-hearted; they must be trying to trick us into going to the city to spend all our coffin money!”

”That’s right, it must be like that!”

”As farmers, how can we just abandon our fields!”

Reporter Wang Xiaoli felt speechless. She was a lucky survivor who had lived through a beast tide and realized more than most people just how dangerous the beasts were. In front of these beasts that had grown stronger in size, unarmed humans were simply targets made of tofu, or rather, food.

Not to mention that monster-like, powerful Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle.

”Xiaoli, is there any way to persuade the villagers to leave here?”

”Hmm... let me think...”

Reporter Wang Xiaoli and the surrounding reporters had already learned the basic situation of this village.

This village was extremely backward; television news spread very slowly, and the credibility of the authorities was almost non-existent here. This was the reason why previous waves of official personnel who came to persuade the elderly in the village had returned in vain.

Reporter Wang Xiaoli couldn’t think of any solution either.

Even if she took out her phone and played the video of the Prehistoric White-Feathered Great Eagle from the outskirts of Jianghai City a few days ago, this group of stubborn elderly people in the village would not believe them.

A strange thought flashed through her mind.

”If the elderly in the village could see the White-Feathered Giant Eagle, they would definitely agree to relocate... No, even a wild boar the size of a small truck would be enough to make the elderly realize the crisis...”

”ROAR!!!”

Suddenly, a massive roar echoed from the distance, causing everyone present to tremble...
