Chapter 150: Domination of the Wasteland
In the eastern United States, in a rainforest that no one can find, hides an abandoned zoo.
This rainforest is dense and tranquil, with tropical vegetation intertwined to form a natural labyrinth, with tall trees stretching out to the sky and lush vines clinging to their trunks as if they were sculptures of nature.
The zoo's gates are in disrepair, and the mottled iron gates are covered with moss and vines. The roads in the park are also completely covered in jungle, and the tourists who came and go for decades are gone, leaving only a quiet place.
There are countless abandoned zoos like this in the world, but here it is different.
This is the territory of Dr. Connors, the Lizard King.
The branches of the bushes swayed gently, and a squirming lizardman with a sly appearance, his short stature and somewhat deformed limbs, seemed to be stuck in some kind of evolution from a lizard.
He used a pair of green scaly feet towards the abandoned lizard exhibit in the center of the zoo, where light and sound could be faintly visible through the shattered glass windows.
The lizardman cautiously stepped into the lizard-exhibit hall, his eyes quickly adjusting to the dim environment, and in the center of the pavilion stood a huge throne made of bone, with skulls on the ground beside it.
His gaze turned to the huge green figure on the throne, a giant green lizard that was more than four meters tall.
The lizard's massive body sat on the throne, with little to do but shimmering green scales, except for a white cloth that covered its waist and lower body.
"Dr. Connors." The lizardman walked slowly over to the giant green lizard and said respectfully to it. The giant lizard didn't seem to pay attention to his presence, didn't move an eyeball, and just made a weird sound from its mouth: "Hisss look."
The lizardman noticed that one of the giant lizard's claws slowly stretched out, and its scaly claws pointed at the television set in front of it.
He followed the claw's point, his gaze falling on the screen of the television.
Scenes of the wasteland world were playing on the screen, with ruined cities, dilapidated buildings, and people wandering through the ruins, and a suffocating atmosphere of despair filled the air.
The lizardman's head spun a hundred and eighty degrees and back, and he didn't understand how the great Dr. Lizard, who had given him his reptilian bloodline, had suddenly become interested in the TV show today.
Isn't it just a bunch of wastelanders? There's something nice to look at, but if you want to eat it, it's pretty tasty
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but drool, and then he quickly reached out and wiped it, he couldn't be too out of shape in front of Dr. Connors.
However, the scene quickly shifts, switching from a scene in the wasteland to another setting.
In the center of the screen, a black-haired man in a huge golden armor appeared, and his figure appeared powerful and eye-catching.
And behind him, stood a group of people who were also dressed in golden power armor, although relatively small, but also revealing a powerful aura.
"The people of the wasteland." The man in the golden armor on the TV screen began to speak, staring at the center of the screen as if he were in direct communication with the audience.
"For the past forty-three years, the incompetent warlords of the wasteland have transformed the world into what you know it today, a land of desolation, fear, and injustice."
"But now, I'm standing here, with the power to bring everything to the table, to establish a new order."
The man in the huge golden armor spoke with an unmistakable meaning, and continued, "You can choose to join me and be a part of the new order. In that case, you will be protected and tolerated. β
"But those who choose to resist have only one result, and that is to be completely destroyed."
The man slowly stepped back, revealing the scene behind him.
There were three lifeless corpses, and a helmet next to them, a warning that his words were not empty words.
The warlords of the wasteland, once mighty rulers, are now a symbol of his victory.
With a snap, the picture on the TV screen disappeared.
The lizardman's pupils in front of the TV instantly shrank into tiny vertical lines, full of shock, Doctor Doom, Red Skull, Hulk, and Magneto, who was once even more powerful than the God of Thunder, are all dead!
"Bang!" The huge lizard slammed its fist into the throne with an earth-shattering sound that made the abandoned lizard exhibition hall tremble slightly, and countless bone fragments flew out of the throne and fell to the ground.
His eyes were manic and agitated, his mouth was wide open, and he let out a deafening roar.
"For why, why not me!" A hoarse voice resounded throughout the lizard exhibit, and with his roar, the bucket-thick tail cut deep marks on the ground, and the huge green body trembled in anger.
Dr. Connors, the lizard king in front of him, was clearly resentful that he had not been among the winners of that power struggle.
He can be regarded as a lord with a large territory and countless lizard cubs under his seat, but in the speech of this new force of order, he was excluded and ignored!
Why can Red Skull be on TV, but he can't?!
He began to wave his huge tail in impotent rage, smashing everything around him.
Glass, bone, metal, anything that could be touched by his anger was targeted, but the lizardman had already run to the door.
The sense of loss and anger at not being able to participate in the power struggle was now struck by Dr. Connors with every smash of the tail.
"Boom!" Suddenly, there was a louder sound outside the arena than the movement he had made, like the footsteps of something, and the lizard king immediately became alert and crawled on the ground to make a lizard attack posture. His tail was raised high, his scales stood up, and his entire body exuded a ferocious aura.
The giant lizard's nose sniffed, and it seemed to smell of reptiles outside, but it didn't smell right.
However, at this time, the stupid lizardman had already opened the door, and the lizard king hurriedly stretched out a hand and shouted:
"No, no, no, don't open the door!"
However, before the lizardman could react, the entire wall was slammed open by a huge force, directly crushing the lizardman into a meatloaf.
"Roarβ"
A huge tyrannosaurus rex suddenly burst into the exhibition hall, covered in black liquid, and was slowly swimming, it was the culprit of the attack.
Compared to the huge tyrannosaurus, the Lizard King seemed insignificant at the moment, almost like a poor insect with excessive degradation, and his body several meters tall seemed extremely thin at the moment, as if there was no power to threaten the other party.
Dr. Connors's scaly face was filled with fear, and he trembled and screamed, "Venom Venom?!" β
