Chapter 364
Veldora said with a smile .
Obviously, this was his way of bullying him .
He liked to tease Zaza, who could not eat .
“Stop this at once! In the first place, problems always seem to arise whenever you start cooking! It’s almost as if that grill is cursed!”
“How rude! I had this grill prepared for making snacks . It is by no means a haunted item!!”
“That’s right, Zaza . Master’s grill is a normal grill . But then again, saying that could raise a flag!”
“Kahahaha! Don’t say that, Ramiris . What will you do if something really does happen?”
“That’s true, master . I will be careful!”
“Yes! You should do that . ”
Zaza couldn’t stay angry while these two talked .
He finally regained his calm and asked the biggest question that was on his mind .
“This is such a dirty place . How did you even…”
Zaza said that much before suddenly freezing .
He had been so angry that it had escaped him at first, but he now realized that the sight before him was incredibly strange .
After separating with Michelle, they had gone down an underground passage that led to the surface .
This was so they could head to a different hideout that Michelle had prepared for them .
As they were nearly one thousand people in all, progress was slow .
And the journey would have been hard even without factoring that in .
This was because they had to gather protective suits that were left at different bases along the underground passage, and everyone had to wear them .
They were like astronaut suits in structure, and supplied the wearer with enough nutrition and water to survive for a week without taking them off .
But while there was some mechanical aid, the suit was still heavy and a burden on the wearer .
It was one thing for adults to wear them, but it was very hard for children .
After some time, there were some people who started to get sick, and so it had become necessary to stop and rest…
You couldn’t even eat with the suits on .
While they did offer nutrition, that just meant drinking liquid food from a straw .
You could not eat the meat that Veldora was cooking unless you removed the suit .
And this was the surface .
The atmosphere was polluted by radiation and toxic gases .
Taking the suits off here was the same thing as comitting suicide . Only a crazy person would start cooking meat here .
And yet…
Right in front of Zaza’s eyes .
Children were happily eating cooked meat and vegetables .
(What the hell is happening?)
Zaza could only watch in shock .
“While it may be hard to believe, Zaza . This area here isn’t polluted for some reason…”
Karman, who was also part of the rear guard and also very surprised, said as he reported the substance analysis results .
In surprise, Zaza asked Rindo, the captain of the advance team .
“Ri-Rindo! What’s going on here?”
“Ah, this . It really tastes amazing!”
“You idiot! That’s not what I was asking!!”
“Haha . Mister Zaza . I am only joking . Well, Mister Veldora suddenly said, ‘If we’re going to have a picnic, let’s make it a barbecue! The weathers great for it!’”
“So it was him after all?!”
“Yes . But I thought it was odd that he would say that about the weather…”
Just then, Zaza realized that it was oddly bright around where they were .
As his vision was seen through mechanical eyes, it had taken him a while to notice it .
But in fact, the place was filled with a light he had not seen in years . In other words, it was sunlight that shone down on them .
“…Can it be…the sun?”
Zaza looked up in surprise .
There was a light that shone so bright that it was blinding .
It was the sun .
The sun should have been covered by thick clouds, but now it was showing its face .
The truth was that Veldora had used his power to blow away the clouds and purify the atmosphere in this area .
After that, he had used ‘Probability Manipulation’ to adjust things so that more pollutants wouldn’t fly towards them .
It was an incredible thing to do so casually, but only Ramiris and Beretta knew of it .
“I can’t believe it . The sun!?”
“The environment here is not normal…and…”
Zaza was stunned .
However, Rindo spoke to him calmly .
“There’s no point in thinking about it . According to Mister Veldora, ‘We’re lucky . Such a thing can happen with enough amazing ‘probabilities’ overlapping!’”
He had said it with a smile .
(That’s ridiculous!!)
Zaza screamed inwardly .
However, the reality was that this place was safe, and everyone had taken their suits off and were enjoying the barbecue .
As Rindo said, it was stupid to worry so much about it .
And so Zaza returned to Veldora .
With no purpose in particular, he sat down on a rock and watched Veldora work .
He looked so happy as he cooked the meat–which had unknown origins—on his trusty grill .
Karman came to down to sit next to Zaza and then offered him one of his cigars .
“Thank you . ”
“It’s nothing . Zaza, I’ve been thinking . That guy is probably a lot greater than we’ve assumed . ”
“Aye . I think so too . I don’t want to admit it, but his boundless cheerfulness has saved us . However, it pains me to see things that way . After all, he’s also quite the troublemaker…”
“That’s true . Even when General Michelle came, he started frying pancakes on his grill . ”
“Right? And this meat . Where did he get it from? The more I think about him, the more mysterious he seems . I don’t even know how to talk to him anymore . ”
“Hahaha . But he doesn’t seem like a bad fellow . However, uh, ‘flags’, was it? I would not be surprised if something happens again . ”
“Hey-hey, stop that Karman . Everyone’s out here without their suits on . We wouldn’t be able to deal with any trouble . ”
It was just as Zaza had finished saying this .
Karman’s expression froze on his face .
“Hey-hey, stop it . Do you think this is funny?”
Zaza laughed as he slapped Karman on the shoulder . Then he followed his eyes–and saw it .
That thing that should have been in the world of the underground .
The thing with paranormal abilities, mankind’s enemy .
It was called—the Super Beast .
“I told you this would happen!! That grill is cursed!!”
Zaza’s scream thundered .
And with that, the sudden arrival of the beast turned the scene into one of chaos and fear .
