“Thank you,” after asking a few more questions about the city, Zhou Chen quickly bid farewell to the man and left the bar.
After leaving the bar, he quickly and secretly returned the way he came. Before long, he brought Lucy in from the jeep.
In order to carry her conveniently, he specially made a magic card to make a leather box. Then, he carried the box and headed east of the city.
On the way, he realized that the development of this city was a little strange. Although most of the cars here were similar to those land cars on Planet Blue, there were also jet-propelled flying cars.
This flying car looked like an elongated van. There was a row of metal doors on the body of the car. The word ‘Security Department’ was written on the side, letting people know that they belonged to the official department of this city.
These flying cars were circling above the streets orderly, as if they were patrolling.
“This place seems to be quite safe. Does it need so much security?” Zhou Chen felt that everything was normal.
However, just as this thought flashed through his mind, an unexpected situation occurred.
He suddenly heard people’s screams in the distance. The flying cars immediately flew there, and then alarms and noise of guns firing appeared.
“What’s going on over there?” Zhou Chen was a distance away from the scene of the accident, but his interest was piqued. He immediately rushed to the location.
After crossing two streets and crossing a street corner, Zhou Chen finally saw the situation.
At the location of the commotion, a three-meter tall humanoid monster was rampaging in the streets.
It easily picked up a car on the road with its nauseating arms and threw it at the flying cars that were shooting fire.
After the flying cars nimbly dodged the car, the monster pulled up a streetlight pole and threw it into the sky like a javelin.
Zhou Chen could see many broken corpses of the natives near this monster. From the looks of the corpses, they probably died by the monster’s hands.
‘This thing is quite tough. It can endure so many shots and is very strong too. But how did it get here? Are the guards of this city blind?’
Zhou Chen felt that the appearance of this monster was very illogical. Its physique and appearance were so different from ordinary people that it was very difficult to hide even if it wanted to. How did it appear in the core area of this city?
Boom!
While Zhou Chen was thinking, the people in the flying cars seemed to have lost their patience. They directly threw a few bombs.
Violent flames instantly drowned the ugly monster on the ground. The shockwave shattered the windows of the nearby buildings.
‘How vicious. They dared to throw explosives in their own territory.’
Zhou Chen sensed that their explosive attack was effective through his Bloodthirst perception. The humanoid monster had stopped moving.
Immediately after, he realized that a few fire engines had gathered around the area and began to put out the fire. Then, some people in full protective clothing moved in to clean the monster’s remains.
Seeing that the situation had settled, Zhou Chen quickly left the block and circled to the east.
Perhaps because it was night time and the incident earlier, there were few people on the street.
Currently, he was looking at a woman with thick makeup who looked like a prostitute and a man in a trench coat. The woman was sending flirtatious winks at the man, but the latter ignored her and walked slowly on the street.
The woman did not give up. She immediately neared him, as if she was trying to sell herself.
However, before she could reach the man, the man’s legs suddenly twisted and he fell to the ground.
The woman immediately turned and ran. She was very fast, thinking that the man was trying to scam her.
Zhou Chen, who was behind, also stopped because he sensed that there was something wrong with the man’s body.
‘The blood in his body seems to be undergoing an extremely intense change…’
Through his Bloodthirst’s perception, Zhou Chen could tell that the blood in the man’s body was undergoing a very abnormal transformation, like a biological mutation was happening on the spot.
He had only sensed for two seconds when he sensed that the aura of the man had completely changed. From an ordinary person with a weak body earlier, he had become a monster with a rich life force!
The man’s clothes tore to pieces as he turned into a large disgusting humanoid monster with warts all over its body.
It jumped up and pounced towards the nearest living creature, Zhou Chen.
“So that’s how that earlier monster came into being. No wonder it could enter the city.”
Zhou Chen finally understood. The monster he had seen earlier should have been transformed from a human like this. The transformation process was extremely fast, and it had a high level of concealment before the transformation. No wonder it was able to sneak in.
While thinking, Zhou Chen punched at the sky. The surging Eight Desolates True Energy instantly erupted, sending the monster flying into the sky and crashing into the street a hundred meters away. Then, its entire body began to tremble as it struggled to stand up.
“It’s not dead?” Zhou Chen’s brows furrowed. He had originally thought that his punch would crush the monster into pieces. Unexpectedly, the monster seemed to have only suffered moderate injuries from this attack, and was trying to get up.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Chen naturally would not wait for the monster to get up and counterattack. He placed his box on the ground, then exerted strength under his feet and ran toward the monster. Then, he kicked down ruthlessly, smashing the monster into the concrete.
After this attack, the monster stopped moving, but Zhou Chen’s expression did not relax.
‘It’s still not dead? Its vitality is really tenacious…’ He sighed inwardly.
“I suggest you use bombs.”
Just as Zhou Chen was about to continue attacking the monster, he realized that a flying car was nearing him from the sky. A young woman with long golden hair jumped down from the flying car that was more than ten meters high and stably landed on the street before walking towards him.
“You’re a mutant who just sneaked in, right? Your strength is not bad. Are you interested in joining my team?” The long-haired woman, who was as agile as a female leopard, stopped a few meters away from Zhou Chen, and tried to recruit him.
“Who are you?” Zhou Chen did not answer this woman’s question, nor did he escape.. He only stepped firmly on the monster and turned to ask the woman.
