Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 161

Chapter 161: Seeking the Second Civilization’s Ruins

TL: Etude

“This mutant creature…”

“Why is it here?”

Some people looked at the photos, their eyes filled with surprise and confusion.

Previously, they had never discovered such a mutant creature.

“We’re not sure. But according to Zhao Chengkong and Luo Zhendong’s findings, it first ate all the mutant river loaches, resolving that crisis.

Then, after this great battle, it ate the mutant Tyrannosaurus Rex, blocked all the mutant loaches here, and ate them too.

Moreover, those two members of the EL organization were also injured by it, but it seemed to intentionally leave them alive for us.”

As he spoke, Zhang Tiansheng also had a puzzled expression on his face.

He couldn’t quite understand why this mutant creature acted this way.

The others, witnessing this, also had perplexed expressions.

“This mutant creature, it seems to be helping us.” Some couldn’t help but voice their thoughts.

“It’s not just a feeling; it’s clearly helping us,” Luo Zhendong said seriously.

Zhao Chengkong had gone to the headquarters for training and hadn’t participated in this meeting. However, Luo Zhendong, who had a direct experience, was certain that this mutant creature was helping them.

They just didn’t know why it did so.

“Does it have a human-like consciousness!?” Luo Xue stared at the photos on the projection screen, unable to help but speak out.

She hadn’t known about this before, and hearing it now, she was quite surprised.

For some reason, she felt a sense of familiarity with this mutant creature.

Although she couldn’t see its exact appearance clearly, she felt a strange sense of closeness.

This made her even more curious.

“I can’t confirm that. But I’ve heard that some powerful individuals can tame and control mutant creatures. Maybe some hidden expert is secretly helping us. You all know that some people have fused with the virus and gained extraordinary powers.” Zhang Tiansheng helplessly spread his hands at this point.

“That’s the likely possibility. It’s highly unlikely for a mutant creature to have human-like consciousness.” Li Ye, sitting on the other side, thought seriously for a moment and then shook his head.

After all, it sounded far-fetched that a mutant creature could possess such cognitive abilities.

Especially one that would side with humans.

“For now, let’s observe. After all, it has disappeared again.” Luo Zhendong spoke up again.

Everyone nodded.

“Yes, just keep an eye on this mutant creature. If it doesn’t pose a threat to us, don’t attack it proactively,” Zhang Tiansheng continued. “The next piece of information is about the civilization’s ruins. Now, within the ruins, there are many containers holding mutant creatures. And one of the containers was found damaged, which could lead to the awakening of the mutant creature inside.”

Hearing his words, everyone frowned slightly.

Again with the mutant creatures.

Dealing with these mutant creatures was extremely troublesome.

During the last confrontation with the mutant Tyrannosaurus Rex and those mutant rats, many people had sacrificed their lives.

“So now, our people must guard the ruins of the civilization. Because it’s very likely that the EL organization will find a way to enter the ruins and awaken those mutant creatures.” As Zhang Tiansheng spoke, his expression became even more severe.

The crisis in Longyin City had not been resolved; in fact, it had just begun!

The upcoming situation posed an immense danger to the entire Longyin City.

If the mutant creatures within the ruins were awakened again, Longyin City would face another major crisis.

This time, many of the mutant creatures in the containers were very powerful.

“We will definitely guard it well. The last time we were careless, which allowed them to exploit the gap.” The government officials also spoke with grave expressions.

“Yes, that’s one matter. The next issue requires the entire city to be on alert.”

At this, everyone present was surprised.

The entire city on alert!?

What was happening?

“According to information from the headquarters, within the next month, multiple alien spaceship landing events will occur worldwide. And in our Longyin City, it’s estimated that at least ten small ships carrying ETs will land.” Zhang Tiansheng said seriously.

“Again!?” Luo Zhendong couldn’t help but stand up upon hearing this.

He had come to Longyin City this time to deal with these ETs.

But the situation in Longyin City was too complex, and with Zhao Chengkong away for training at the headquarters, he had stayed temporarily.

“The last prediction was for three ships, but the actual number that arrived at Dragon Mountain was far more than that.” He continued speaking.

Everyone’s expressions became extremely serious at his words.

“Ten small ships mean ten ETs. Is there another civilization’s ruin in Longyin City?” Luo Xue quickly pinpointed the critical issue and spoke up immediately.

Usually, the arrival of these ETs was to search for civilization ruins and awaken mutant creatures.

So her first thought was the civilization ruins!

If it was the currently discovered civilization ruins, although there were many mutant creatures in the containers, it wasn’t enough to warrant so many ETs.

“Luo Xue’s question is excellent. In our research, there is a high possibility of a second civilization ruin within Longyin City. And this civilization ruin could be a large one.”

Zhang Tiansheng nodded and continued.

A large civilization ruin!

Everyone couldn’t help but swallow, their eyes filled with astonishment.

“A large civilization ruin, with even more mutant creatures inside?” A government official couldn’t help but speak up.

“Yes. So the crisis in Longyin City is far from over. During this period, both Luo Zhendong and I will stay in the city. Before those ETs arrive again, we must find the second civilization ruin. This is our task this time!” Zhang Tiansheng said seriously.

The second civilization ruin must be found first so that it can be guarded. If the ETs discovered it first, it would lead to the awakening of the mutant creatures within!

“Yes!”

“Meeting adjourned!”

…

Time flew by, and soon it was early the next morning.

The sky was slightly cool, and within the Hualong Pond, where no one had yet approached, a large amount of water rippled.

Suddenly, a golden light flickered within the pond.

Soon, a pair of huge eyes suddenly opened!
