My Apocalypse System Arrives 10 Years Early

Chapter 431: Chapter 285: A Carrier Vanishes Without a Sound, Preparing Heaven and Earth for the Ice Age

In the northern foothills of the Rocky Mountains, a cougar resting on a rock ledge appeared in his night vision. The great beast, 1.5 meters tall at the shoulder, was suddenly startled awake, only to be impaled by rock spikes that shot up from the ground.

Li Xiang, clad in the Giant Whale Saint Armor, swept past. The system’s reward had already arrived.

It was a saber-toothed mountain lion, a potential Tier Seventeen Extraordinary mutated beast. Of course, since the Apocalypse had not yet arrived, it was still just an ordinary wild animal.

Li Xiang received 1,700 Achievement Points, three units of the Tier Eight Spiritual Medicine ”Storm Core,” and a small Tier Fifteen ring, the ”Hurricane Tiger.”

This Extraordinary Spirit Ring was cyan-blue all over and shimmered with a faint light. Li Xiang gave it a try and found that a wave of his hand could conjure a small tornado filled with hundreds of Wind Blades.

When a Montana grizzly bear shattered a hundred-year-old spruce with its paw, Frost White Sword Qi had already pierced its heart. Li Xiang gained 1,800 Achievement Points and three units of the Tier Nine Spiritual Medicine ”Earth Bear Gall,” a miraculous healing remedy that increased the body’s regeneration rate by 200% after consumption.

He also received a set of Tier Sixteen ”Rock Soul Heavy Armor,” which resonated with the earth when worn and could absorb 30% of physical impact.

But Li Xiang’s standards were higher now; he barely gave items below the Saint Tier a second glance. He could only save them to bestow upon deserving followers later.

Deep in a Louisiana swamp, a five-meter-long alligator king clamped its jaws on Li Xiang, preparing to execute a death roll!

But then, the king of the swamp was stunned. It couldn’t roll. Instead, Li Xiang lifted it and swung it around casually, like a rag doll.

The ferocious alligator wasn’t very durable, it seemed. Li Xiang had it dizzy after just a few spins.

Immediately after, Li Xiang harvested 1,600 Achievement Points and three stalks of the Tier Eight Spiritual Medicine ”Mire Spirit Root.” It was a supportive spiritual medicine that could act as a universal antidote and enhance underwater perception.

He also got a set of Tier Fourteen ”Swamp Lord Scale Armor,” which provided the ability to breathe underwater and granted immunity to corrosive liquids.

On the plains of Wyoming, a herd of burly bison grazed leisurely. Li Xiang made a grasping motion with both hands, and his Earth Superpower formed a circular cage.

The bison herd charged the walls of their prison, but the ground suddenly collapsed beneath them. When the dust settled, only a deep pit marked with hoofprints remained on the prairie.

The herd numbered in the hundreds and would make for good meat. Among them were three potential Extraordinary individuals. Li Xiang gained 2,600 Achievement Points, nine Tier Six Spiritual Medicine ”Barbaric Power Fruits”—which could grant a short burst of double strength upon consumption—and two pairs of the Extraordinary Item ”Earthquake Battle Boots,” which could trigger localized seismic waves with a stomp.

In addition, ferocious beasts like the North American gray wolf, jaguar, grizzly bear, and bald eagle could not escape Li Xiang’s grasp whenever he encountered them.

Li Xiang rampaged across the American Continent, appearing and disappearing like a phantom. Moving at an extreme speed of Mach 11, he’d be in one state one moment and another the next, moving through them uncontested and reaping a bountiful harvest.

He collected eight to nine thousand spiritual medicines and nearly a hundred Extraordinary Items.

He also discovered several Bat Caves, which he naturally didn’t pass up. His Achievement Points account had already broken the three million mark. ’I should think about upgrading some of my other Superpower Runes,’ he mused.

While sweeping up wildlife, Li Xiang didn’t neglect American firearms and other weapons. He alternated between the tasks, enjoying himself immensely.

Seven levels beneath the Pentagon, all surveillance cameras suddenly shattered. Li Xiang strolled through a labyrinth of firearms as entire rows of GBU-12 laser-guided bombs, mounted on MQ-9 Reaper drones, vanished.

Batches of Boston Dynamics Spot robotic dogs, along with the 6.5mm Creedmoor rifles mounted on their backs, also disappeared.
