Crane's Ark of Tomorrow Daily

Chen walked up to Xingxiong, held out a hand to her, and asked, "Xingxiong, are you alright?"

"Huh...it's okay, it's just a little bit out of strength."

Taking a deep breath, Hoshiguma had almost recovered. She grabbed Chen's outstretched hand and stood up from the ground with a little force.

Feeling the needle-like sting from his arm, Hoshiguma gritted his teeth and said, "What kind of monster is this thing? It's so strong..."

"I...don't know either." Chen shook his head with a livid face.

If she guessed correctly, something might have gone wrong with Ah Fa, and the previous text message was not sent by him at all, it was just a trap to lure Chen Lai to his death.

On this issue, Chen also made a mistake of being eager for quick success, and only wanted to catch the real culprit behind the scenes as soon as possible. He didn't confirm the authenticity of the news at all, so he rushed over with Xingxiong and the two.

Just imagine, if the bagpipes did not appear here by coincidence, just because she was holding the Chixiao Sword, which was not effective at all times, in such a small place, no matter how many police officers from the Guards Bureau she brought over, they would all die.

Thinking of this, Chen's face became even more ugly.

"Bagpipe, are you not hurt?"

"Ah? No, it's just that I didn't wear gloves, and my hands were a little burned." Bagpipe said, then picked up the city-breaking spear that had cooled down from the ground, and shook off the dirty water on it.

Everyone was safe and sound, and the most serious injury they suffered was just a muscle strain in Hoshiguma's arms.

"Old Chen, what should we do now? Retreat?" Hoshiguma asked.

The current situation is very unclear. Although they have survived a crisis, no one can guarantee whether there will be a second monster like this. By then, the bagpipes will not have a second round of ammunition to fire.

Chen considered for two seconds, and then said decisively, "Go and see the situation of that monster first, and then make a decision."

After finishing speaking, Chen walked directly to the side of the monster wreckage, leaving no chance for Hoshiguma and Bagpipe to refute.

"This guy..." Hoshiguma shook his head helplessly, then dragged his shield and walked towards Chen.

Although Chen didn't explain much, Hoshiguma could understand what she was going for. They had fallen into the enemy's trap. Fortunately, the bagpipes could finally save the day. If they couldn't use this opportunity to get some information, They will only take one step slower, step by step.

Walking to Chen's side, Hoshiguma stared at the corpse carefully for a moment, and then said in surprise, "This monster...could it be a human?"

"...At least, he used to be alone." Chen said, frowning tightly.

After the monster died, they had the opportunity to carefully observe its specific structure.

The height of the monster is about [-] meters, which has far surpassed the worries of ordinary people. Among all the races in the world of Terra, only the Vaifan, ghost race, dragon race and other races are taller, but even Such Hoshiguma's height of nearly [-] meters is no different from a dwarf in front of this monster.

Its body has obviously undergone a highly mutated body, and various physiological and racial characteristics have disappeared. It is completely impossible to distinguish its identity or gender through these details... But other than that, its body structure is generally indistinguishable from that of ordinary people. Second, it is almost doubled in proportion.

Looking at the pale skin, Chen thought for a moment, then picked up his short fighting blade from the ground.

The toughness of this layer of skin far exceeded Chen's imagination. Even if the opponent had completely lost the ability to resist, Chen still had to spend a lot of effort to break through the outermost layer of skin.

This also meant that most conventional weapons couldn't do damage to it at all. Chen immediately simulated in his mind the consequences of this monster appearing in the urban area... The result was naturally very ugly.

The monster's agility didn't match its huge size, and the Guard Bureau didn't have many weapons that could break through this layer of skin, so it might be powerless to stop it from moving.

After all, as we all know, Longmen is a peaceful city. There is no such thing as an "army" in the city. The job of the Guards Bureau is only to maintain the city's law and order. Catching some dangerous criminals is the limit of what they can do .

"The ore disease can make people look like this? That's too unbelievable, right?" Hoshiguma walked around the corpse twice, and couldn't help being amazed.

"How could it be an ore disease..."

Shaking his head, Chen gave Hoshiguma a speechless look. If the ore disease could make the infected person look like this, no matter how good or bad it is, the infected person wouldn't be able to turn into the situation where everyone is shouting and beating.

However, the origin stone crystals on this monster are too conspicuous, so it's not surprising that it will be linked to the ore disease.

"Anyway, let's find out if there are any other useful clues?" Chen thought for a while, then said.

If they can't find other clues in a few minutes, they have to leave here. Although they have solved the previous crisis, it is not a wise choice to stay in the enemy's territory for a long time.

After all, this thing doesn't look like a creature that can be born naturally, and it just happened to appear in such a suspicious place. Chen has enough reasons to believe that this monster was artificially created by the research institute above their heads.

At this moment, Hoshiguma on the side suddenly made a new discovery. She waved her hand, then pointed to a point on the monster and said, "Wait, Old Chen, look here!"

"Hoshiguma, what did you find?"

Looking in the direction Hoshiguma pointed, there happened to be the face of the monster. Under the dim lighting conditions, except for some black translucent source stone crystals protruding from the body, Chen didn't see anything special. The place.

"No, Old Chen, look into its eyes."

Pulling Chen to the side of the wreckage, after changing the angle, Chen discovered what Hoshiguma was talking about——

——It was a metal arrow with a color close to black. It had completely sunk into the monster's right eye, and only a little bit of the end of the arrow feather was still exposed to the air. Be careful and ignore it.

Anyone been here before them?

This idea popped up in Chen's mind all of a sudden, the wound on the monster's eye was still fresh, and even the blood that flowed out hadn't completely scabbed over.

Who is the owner of this arrow?What purpose did the other party come here for?

In any case, the discovery of this arrow was a very bad signal. With a solemn face, Chen pulled out the slightly distorted arrow from the monster's eye socket, wrapped it in a plastic bag and packed it.

After keeping the important evidence, Chen shouted without looking back,

"Come on, let's go back to the Guard Bureau."

"Eh? You've already taken samples, are you ready to leave here?" Hearing Chen's voice, Bagpipe raised his head and said silly, "Then I'll see you off."

She had just checked the status of her City Breaking Spear, and she obviously hadn't figured out the status in front of her.

Looking at the bagpipe with some weird eyes, Chen Du didn't know what to say.
