Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 264

Chapter 264: Continuously Rising Life Energy Waves!

TL: Etude

Zhang Tianyang and the others stared at the photos on the big screen, their pupils slightly constricting.

“An explosion happened!?”

The satellite photos showed dense dust produced by the explosion, making it impossible to clearly see what was happening on the island.

“It’s unclear, but the spaceship has already landed, right on the volcanic island! It could be the explosion caused by the ET’s landing, or its spaceship might have directly exploded,” another man speculated at this moment.

“Not necessarily. The power generated by this explosion is strong; it could be due to other reasons.” The chief commander’s face also turned grave.

The situation over there was still unclear. Drones were flying over from hundreds of miles away, and it would take some time for them to arrive. The support from headquarters wasn’t going to arrive quickly either.

“Report! Using new satellite detection, the volcanic island shows extremely strong life energy!”

At this moment, a man in front of a computer on the other side suddenly spoke up.

“What!?”

Zhang Tianyang and the others rushed to his side upon hearing his words.

On the screen in front of the man, there was a life energy curve, continuously rising!

Just looking at it made people feel incredulous.

“How could such strong life energy appear in such a short time…” Zhang Tianyang mumbled as he watched the scene.

Previously, although the new satellite could directly detect the life energy fluctuations of the volcanic island, indicating the possibility of mutant creatures on the island, the life energy curve had always been relatively stable. Who could have expected it to rise so much now?

Everyone’s faces turned extremely serious.

Although this mutant creature appeared on the sea surface hundreds of nautical miles from the mainland, once it awakened, it was very likely to head towards the mainland, posing an even greater danger then!

“Should we launch a missile!?” Zhang Tianyang’s eyes turned towards the chief commander.

Although the chief commander looked like a middle-aged man, his real age was already sixty!

His youthful appearance was due to having completed viral fusion in his early years, significantly enhancing the activity of his body’s cells, making him appear much younger.

“No, wait a bit longer. We still don’t know the situation.”

The chief commander shook his head at Zhang Tianyang’s words.

“Have you forgotten what happened in Bear Nation a while ago?”

He spoke in a deep voice.

Bear Nation…

Hearing his words, Zhang Tianyang and the others paused slightly.

Indeed, Bear Nation had encountered an incident recently.

A level 7 mutant creature appeared there!

But it emerged in a desolate area. The local people couldn’t handle it, and to prevent the mutant creature from reaching the cities and causing greater destruction, they directly used a small nuclear weapon!

But astonishingly, the level 7 mutant creature didn’t die!

It seemed to have absorbed the high radiation from the explosion, undergoing an even more terrifying mutation!

The global alliance was currently discussing how to address this issue.

“Wait a bit longer.”

The chief commander stared at the screen, his face serious as he spoke.

“Old Zhang! Luo Xue is here. She says she has something urgent to discuss with you.”

At this moment, a man dressed in the same HXLZ uniform walked in from the other side, speaking respectfully.

Although Luo Xue’s strength wasn’t particularly notable at the headquarters, she had made significant contributions to scientific research. She was well-recognized and respected within the organization.

“Let her come in,” Zhang Tianyang said, slightly surprised but quickly regaining his composure.

“Yes.” The man nodded and soon brought Luo Xue over.

“Chief Commander, Old Zhang…” As soon as Luo Xue entered, she greeted everyone.

“What’s going on?” Zhang Tianyang asked directly, wasting no time.

“I just discovered mutant insects at the Longyin City waiting area,” Luo Xue reported promptly.

“Mutant insects?” Everyone’s brows furrowed.

Insects predated humans by a significant margin, first appearing over 300 million years ago during the Paleozoic Devonian period. They were the most numerous creatures on Earth. However, since the emergence of mutant creatures, mutant insects had been extremely rare, with very few documented cases.

“Continue,” the chief commander said, his eyes fixed on Luo Xue.

It had been a long time since mutant insects had been seen. It was unclear whether it was due to their physiological structure or cellular composition, but such mutations were rare. However, if insects did mutate, the consequences would undoubtedly be terrifying.

Luo Xue nodded slightly and recounted the entire situation that had occurred at that time.

“Then I found this card.”

She produced a card she had found in the black box at the waiting area.

The chief commander took the card and, upon seeing the EL organization’s logo and the message left on it, his brow furrowed slightly.

“The EL organization!? These guys are really audacious, using mutant creatures to target civilians!”

Zhang Tianyang was furious, his beard bristling and eyes wide with anger.

Mutant creatures appearing in densely populated areas were extremely dangerous. Ordinary people had no means of resisting them.

“Mutant black bees,” the chief commander muttered to himself.

“If they could capture these mutant creatures, it means there are already many of these mutant black bees. And the number of insects is terrifying. If large numbers of these mutant insects appear, dealing with them won’t be any easier than handling high-level mutant creatures.” He continued speaking.

“Indeed,” Zhang Tianyang said, feeling a chill run down his spine as he calmed down.

Insects were ancient and extremely numerous in nature. If they all mutant and grew larger, it would be like returning to hundreds of millions of years ago, a time when insects dominated the world.

“Their people will certainly act again. The situation in Longyin City has been too chaotic. We need to allocate more resources to monitor it closely,” the chief commander said in a grave tone.

“Yes.” Everyone else nodded slightly in agreement.

Indeed, Longyin City had been experiencing one incident after another, with no time to rest.

It was like an endless wave of problems!

“Report, Chief Commander! The life energy on the volcanic island is spiking again!”

At this moment, the man monitoring the volcanic island’s life energy fluctuations suddenly widened his eyes.

Because on the screen, the life energy curve was skyrocketing!

“What?!”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present was shocked.

They immediately moved forward and could clearly see the curve on the screen shooting straight up!

“The mutant creature on the volcanic island has truly awakened!”
