Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 266

Chapter 266: What Happened on the Island?

TL: Etude

The enormous crimson energy beam hurtled toward them at an incredible speed!

In the instant they spotted it, it grazed past their vessel and crashed directly into a rocky island ahead.

Boom!

With an immense sound, the entire island erupted into a terrifying explosion, sending countless fragments of rock flying.

In an instant, the island was engulfed in crimson flames.

“Gulp.”

Everyone on the special battleship involuntarily swallowed hard.

What on earth was that!?

It had almost hit them!

Moreover, everyone on the battleship could distinctly feel the intense heat, making them break out in a sweat.

“It seemed like a flame energy.”

Quickly, a middle-aged man among them reacted and spoke up.

His face turned extremely grim as he looked toward the distance, where he could see a small dot in the direction of the volcanic island far away.

That flame energy had come from the volcanic island!?

If it had hit them just now, the entire vessel, along with everyone on it, would have been blown to pieces.

The thought alone made their scalps tingle.

“Could it be that the creature on the volcanic island has really awakened!?”

The others, having recovered their senses, couldn’t help but speak up.

Many of them recalled the scene just now, their faces turning pale.

“Possibly. And the latest news indicates that a spaceship has also landed on the volcanic island.”

As the middle-aged man in the lead spoke, he pressed a button on the rectangular metal box strapped to his back.

In an instant, the metal box disintegrated into countless metallic particles, covering his body.

In no time, these particles formed a black battle suit that fitted his body perfectly.

“Increase speed and prepare for combat.” He looked toward the distance with determination.

“Yes!”

The others nodded seriously and donned their Type 2 battle suits. Whatever lay ahead, they had to see it for themselves!

At this moment, several white drones flew ahead.

…

“Damn, it obliterated everything.”

Meanwhile, on the volcanic island, Lin Hao had reached the area where the Level 6 mutant beast warrior had been.

Its body had been completely obliterated, leaving only some shattered bones.

A battle knife lay on the ground.

The knife was still glowing red from the intense heat.

“This battle knife is incredibly sharp and sturdy.”

Picking up the still scorching hot knife, Lin Hao couldn’t help but marvel.

He looked around, noticing the volcanic crater emitting rumbling sounds and billowing white smoke.

“Is this volcano about to erupt?” Lin Hao frowned slightly at the sight.

At this moment, despite releasing his powerful sensory abilities, he still couldn’t detect any trace of the mutant creature.

“According to my guess, this lava beast should indeed be here.

Could it be inside the volcanic crater?

Or beneath this island? Or maybe this entire island is the monster itself…”

Instinctively, he used his detection ability.

But no information popped up.

Furthermore, his extremely sharp eyes could clearly see drones flying over from the distance!

Even further away, there was a vessel speeding toward them!

Someone was coming!?

Seeing this, he didn’t think much. Grabbing the battle knife and an undamaged locator, he turned and dashed into the ocean!

Boom!

As soon as he entered the water, he felt strong tremors continuously emanating from the volcano.

The gases erupting from the crater clearly had an increased sulfur content.

He could even see bursts of fire!

“Is it about to erupt?”

Seeing this scene underwater, Lin Hao muttered to himself.

The water temperature had noticeably risen, very much like the precursor to a volcanic eruption!

He didn’t teleport away immediately but instead hid among some nearby reefs. Using his super camouflage ability, his body seamlessly blended in with the rocks.

At this moment, several drones had already reached the volcanic island, transmitting live images back!

“The video feed is restored!”

In the headquarters command room of HXLZ, Zhang Tianyang and the others noticed that the previously snowy screen now displayed clear images!

The situation on the volcanic island could once again be monitored in real-time.

“Zoom in!”

The commander stared at the screen and immediately ordered.

“Yes, sir!”

The image quickly zoomed in, revealing a spaceship on the volcanic island!

“It really landed on the volcanic island.”

Seeing this, the commander’s expression changed slightly.

As they continued watching the transmitted images, they could clearly see many battle scars on the island.

There were craters from explosions and numerous scorch marks.

But apart from this, there were no signs of people or any creatures!

“There’s also a special yacht approaching the island.”

Zhang Tianyang spoke up, watching the images from another screen.

What’s going on!?

What exactly happened on this volcanic island just now!?

The ET spaceship had its hatch open, yet there were no creatures inside.

And what about those battle scars on the island?

“Initially, those drones might have been destroyed by the EL organization.”

Luo Xue, looking at the images, also spoke seriously, observing the special yacht docked on the shore.

The yacht clearly wasn’t ordinary; it looked specially modified.

“There are also guns on the ground near the shore.”

Guns!?

“Zoom in on that area!”

Zhang Tianyang immediately ordered.

As soon as he finished speaking, the screen zoomed in, revealing several guns on the shore.

These guns looked distinctly different from regular firearms, appearing highly futuristic!

“Laser guns. Likely obtained from the ancient civilization ruins.”

The commander, staring at the enlarged image of the guns, spoke in a deep voice.

“That must be the EL organization’s members. Apart from us, only they have the means to acquire such weapons.” Zhang Tianyang’s face grew more serious.

The events on the island were becoming increasingly mysterious.

What exactly had happened just now?
