Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 173

Chapter 173: The Closest Guess to the Truth

TL: Etude

This time was certainly no exception!

However, now, this spaceship was completely intact!

What exactly was going on!?

“Coach Luo!”

“There’s a remote control here!”

At this moment, a man at the rear picked up a remote control from the ground and immediately exclaimed.

This remote control seemed slightly different from what they had seen before.

The shape was strange enough, but mainly, they had no idea what material it was made of. It looked very smooth and had a nice texture.

“This thing…”

Luo Zhendong looked at the remote control the young man had picked up and slightly furrowed his brows.

They didn’t know what this thing was.

“Maybe it’s something left behind by the ET.” He thought for a moment and then continued to speak.

“Maybe it’s a detonation device.” At this moment, Luo Xue suddenly said seriously.

“Detonation device!?” When everyone heard Luo Xue’s words, their expressions immediately changed.

“It might be used to blow up this spaceship.” Luo Xue nodded slightly and continued speaking.

The man holding the remote control trembled slightly at this moment.

Earlier, he had indeed thought about pressing it to see if it did anything.

If he had actually pressed it, would the spaceship have exploded right then!?

The powerful impact of such an explosion might have seriously injured everyone standing here!

“It’s possible!”

Listening to Luo Xue’s words, Luo Zhendong now reacted, slapped his thigh, and quickly caught on.

“It didn’t even have time to detonate, and it just ran away?”

A man wearing a Type 3 Battle Suit couldn’t help but speak at this moment.

This was different from the Green Beast Warriors they remembered!

Based on their previous experience, those Green Beast Warriors wouldn’t be so easily scared. Even if they wanted to escape, they would surely destroy the spaceship as before.

Unless…

“It was attacked. It was probably attacked by a mutant creature.” Luo Xue now glanced around.

White lights appeared on her armor, illuminating the surroundings.

However, the traces of the battle around them were too obvious, and everyone had already noticed them.

“These footprints are huge. This mutant creature must be at least ten or twenty meters long.”

Luo Zhendong also observed the large footprints around them and began to analyze.

Although they had noticed the battle traces around them earlier, most of their attention had been on finding the ET.

They feared the ET might be hiding behind or beside the spaceship, waiting to ambush them.

But now it seemed, there wasn’t.

“The surrounding ground has scorch marks.

Their battle involved flames, which could have been released by the mutant creature or caused by the ET using a special device.

However, based on these traces, I speculate that the mutant creature’s body emitted the flames.”

Luo Xue’s eyes scanned the surroundings as she began to speculate and analyze based on the footprints and other traces.

Under her analysis, a conclusion started to form.

When the ET landed, it must have fought with a nearby mutant creature, which was probably around ten to twenty meters in size and likely had a body capable of emitting flames.

“But where did the ET go in the end, and what about the mutant creature…” A man listening to Luo Xue’s words spoke out, a bit confused.

Judging by the spaceship, this ET that landed on Earth should have been of relatively high strength.

What kind of mutant creature did it encounter?

How did it suddenly disappear?

“Is there even a need to guess? It must have been eaten by the mutant creature.” Luo Zhendong also spoke in a deep voice at this time.

The events of this night were simply too strange.

What exactly had happened here? He was desperate to know!

“These two are not dead yet; see if we can get any information from them.” His eyes turned to the two people on the ground.

They were bleeding from their orifices, looking as if they were dead at first glance, but they were actually just unconscious.

They were certainly injured, but not to the point of death.

“They must have been eaten by the mutant creature. And this mutant creature should have come from the sea.”

Luo Xue continued to examine the footprints, which clearly showed that the mutant creature had rushed up from the ocean.

But what was puzzling was that there were no footprints showing the creature’s departure!

It didn’t make sense!

Given the creature’s size, its weight must have been measured in tons, and with such weight, it should have left noticeable marks on the beach as it returned to the sea.

So why were there no traces of its departure?

The more Luo Xue thought about it, the stranger it seemed.

“Let’s not worry about this for now. Take them back, and bring this spaceship back to the research institute.”

Luo Zhendong continued searching the area but found nothing, so he spoke with resignation.

Before long, government personnel and many armed soldiers arrived at the scene.

The coastal area was soon illuminated by numerous vehicle lights.

The two members of the EL organization were taken away, and the spaceship was prepared to be transported using a special carrier.

“Coach Luo, do you think it’s possible that it was the mutant creature you encountered before?”

As the others worked on moving the spaceship, Luo Xue suddenly thought of something and spoke instinctively.

“Are you talking about the mutant creature that emitted golden flames all over its body?”

Luo Zhendong was momentarily stunned by her words but quickly caught on.

“Yes. That doesn’t seem likely. That mutant creature shouldn’t appear in the sea.” He shook his head.

“Don’t you find it strange that only the ET disappeared, leaving the spaceship behind, and these two aren’t dead? And if I’m not mistaken, these two are likely members of the EL organization.” Luo Xue continued seriously.

“You mean… ” Luo Zhendong’s eyes narrowed as he reacted.

“It’s helping us.” The next moment, both of them spoke simultaneously.

“It’s possible! It’s really possible!” Luo Zhendong became excited as he thought about it.

If this were the case, everything would make sense!

“The size and the flames indeed make it highly possible!”

The more he spoke about it, the more plausible the idea seemed.

It was highly possible that it was as Luo Xue had speculated.

“When you saw that mutant creature before, what was its approximate body length?” Luo Xue continued.

“About ten meters? Around thirteen to fifteen meters, I’d estimate.” Luo Zhendong responded instinctively. “Wait, you mean to say…”

“It’s evolving.”
