The Record of Unusual Creature

*Boom! Boom!*

The loud explosions echoed throughout the air while the mad screams of the dark army rose in the desert. An indescribably strange battle was unfolding.

There were too many monsters emerging from the darkness; there were no words to describe their sheer number.

Hathaway had no way to know the extent of damage of the seal at the bottom of the cage, but she suspected that the entire system had collapsed. The black tide had overwhelmed the silver-white runes in the pit, leaving only a small of them still struggled to shine under the onslaught of the dark army. Meanwhile, monsters from the other side of the boundary were multiplying in number and strength.

The black tide spewing out of the rift flooded the entire desert with dark humanoids, which would lunge at anything that attracted their attention. When looking from above, this black tide looked like a patch of dirty oil oozing out from the hole and flowing into all directions rapidly. It polluted the land, filled up the ravine, and swallowed up the hills, just as Hathaway described it.

On the other side of the boundary is the dark side of the universe, from which an endless evil force comes!

Hao Ren and his team were retreating to a place two kilometers away from the cage. They did not foresee the number and strength of the enemy could swell so rapidly and wildly. Their initial attack was not good enough to close the rift or force the things back to the boundary. They had run out of place to stand before they knew it.

The speed at which things transpired was beyond their imagination and caught everyone by surprise.

“Too many of them!” Vivian had launched into the air, shooting down forked lightning bolts from the air. Meanwhile, she had also summoned her blood mist to form into a storm, smashing every enemy in the vicinity. But they were quickly being cornered and having nowhere to run. “We have to think of a way quickly!”

Hathaway silently struck the attackers with crossbows and sacred flame before her. She looked as calm as a mill pond without a hint of nervousness on her face. But her eyes seemed to show that she had accepted her fate as if today was her last day and she was preparing to perish with her enemy—even though she had died two centuries ago.

“So this is it?” Hesperides quavered. A fire was still burning inside her. Her Solarflare spell could still inflict significant damage, but it was draining her. She was approaching the limit of her strength. “That’s it. That’s it.”

“Don’t be so discouraged,” Vivian yelled in the air, interrupted Hesperides and woke up Hathaway too. “I have met worse situation than this—Hao Ren could figure it out!”

A dozen autonomous robots were flying around Hao Ren. Those things were not war machines, but their laser beam was still a formidable weapon, especially against the ordinary enemy. The psionic shield allowed the worker robots to have a higher chance of survival in the battlefields. With the help of these autonomous robots, Hao Ren was the only person here who still had time to think of countermeasures and issuing command. He looked into the distance, past the black tide. A dark-red light column was tearing the sky open, and the funnel-shaped cave had become an evil lair, from where the enemy was coming.

“Hang on, guys! Hold the line!” Hao Ren shouted. “I am prepping a WMD!”

Hesperides and Hathaway had no idea what WMD meant, but Vivian was relieved hearing that. She summoned all the bats she ever had and shouted, “You better hurry!”

Vivian flew to a higher altitude to get a bird’s eye view of the battlefield. A white shadow suddenly caught her attention. She zoomed in at it and muttered in horror, “That idiot has finally at it!”

“Woof-woof—” The howl resounded throughout the earth. The five-meter giant wolf became the most eye-catching unit on the ground. At first, Lily was a timid dog when she saw the horrifying black tide, but she quickly got into gear and possessed an extraordinary combat power—all these were mostly the results of fear. The black humanoids were violent, but they were not invulnerable. Lily could easily smash a bunch of them into pieces with just one blow, and the green storm around her was as powerful as a sharp blade.

The giant white wolf was fighting on the ground. Occasionally, some monsters were able to sneak past the lethal barriers of her sharp claws and green storm, but she had another trick awaiting them. With her hair puffed up, she rolled on the ground and crushed any enemies that slipped through the net.

Vivian figured that the husky must be scared the wit out of her and not knowing what she was doing. But on thing Vivian had to admit: a mad dog was anytime stronger than a normal one. So she again figured that probably she could give Lily a shot of amphetamine before combat next time.

Meanwhile, Hao Ren was talking with the MDT in his mind.

“How is the decoding process?”

“80%, buddy!” the MDT replied. It was humming and flashing in blue light. “Here is a seriously twisted alien dimension. It is not easy for the spacecraft to enter.”

“Get it done quickly,” Hao Ren frowned and looked at the beam of light in the distance. “I have a bad feeling; things would become unmanageable once that thing breaks into the real world.”

The dark-red light beam was expanding rapidly.

The boundary had become extremely fragile, and the evil force was lurking in the darkness was pulling itself out of the cage, bit by bit. It was reaching out its tentacle to the material world and was about to touch the edge of the real world.

A rumble came from the direction of the light column. Vivian could see clearly from the air what happened on the ground. The funnel-shaped cave suddenly cracked, and the last silver rune in the cave had gone off. As the cave broke open, the power of the dark-red beam suddenly increased by nearly two folds.

Vivian felt detestable energy coming her way.

It was an unexplainable experience. Never had Vivian felt so detestable about something. But, when the energy appeared, an uncontrollable hostility rose from within her. She was almost unable to control her impulse of wanting to lunge out at it.

But she still managed to calm down, because Hao Ren needed her to hold down the fort.

At last long, the MDT shouted, “Decoding is complete. The beacon is ready to use.”

Hao Ren quickly took out a silvery-white metal rod, which was a guiding beacon for his spacecraft. It enabled the spacecraft to reach the summoned destination no matter how remote or unstable the surroundings were. Hao Ren tossed the beacon into the air. The beacon stabilized and moved steadily in the air before its fuselage opened, revealing the blue crystal structure inside.

The beacon unfolded itself. Its antenna fired a beam of light into the sky, opening up a rift in the shape of a whirlpool. Hesperides and Hathaway looked up in horror as they sensed terrifying energy was surging in the rift.

“The battleship has entered, flight path clear.” Nolan’s voice sounded in the air. As the Petrachelys slowly emerged from the spatial rift, the armor panels on the nose were open. A pair of sub-cannons glowing in a blue began to emit a humming sound. The charging process was complete.

Two beams of light were shot straight into the rift in the distance.

Before Nolan pressed the trigger, Hao Ren had recalled all his autonomous robots and summoned an emergency shield generator. He had also dragged Lily back in while she was fighting like a mad dog on the front line. When the Petrachelys fired its sub-guns, a composite shield rose to keep everyone protected.

A fireball, as if the sun, rose from afar. All sounds in the world seemed to have muted suddenly. It followed by the rapid expansion of the bright-white fireball before it busted like a bubble, realizing all its energy.

The land, including the black tide, melted in an instant.

The blast ravaged for a full minute before everything calmed down. Looking at the aftermath, Hao Ren could only see a sea of lava, and the blue crystals condensed in the lava sea before his eyes.

Hathaway’s jaw dropped to the ground looking at the silver-white spacecraft hovering in the sky.

“Is it over?” Hesperides was also stunned. But she knew more about Hao Ren and was able to recover from her shock quickly. “It seems they are all dead.”

But Vivian was still staring dead at a distance. Inside the hole where the red light column had disappeared, something had completed its transformation.

That thing was still alive.

“Not yet over!”
