Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 301

Chapter 301: The Creature From the Sea

TL: Etude

He placed the dark red crystal on a machine positioned on the high ground, his face contorted with a menacing expression.

“Boss, the building over there has already been detonated, but we’ve lost contact with them!”

At the same time, two men wearing black cloaks ran over from the other side.

They held special communication devices, their faces also showing grave expressions.

The plan over there was something they had arranged from the beginning.

As soon as either Luo Zhendong or Zhang Tiansheng entered the building, it would be detonated directly!

Although the building had been blown up, the two members responsible for the task had lost contact!

“They were probably discovered by HXLZ’s people.” The man’s face darkened.

He looked at the machine holding the dark red crystal and pressed the start button.

In an instant, the dark red crystal became even more dazzling under the light emitted by the machine below!

The entire rooftop was bathed in a blinding dark red light!

It shot straight into the sky!

“It’s ready. That mutant creature should be here soon.” Seeing this, the man’s face twisted into a sinister grin. “Let’s retreat first!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he pressed a button on the metal box he carried, and the Type 2 Suit instantly covered his entire body.

“Yes!” The others quickly retreated from the high-rise building with him.

Boom!

At that moment, the thunder in the sky became more intense, and lightning could be seen everywhere.

The rain started pouring down harder!

“Damn it!”

In a nearby area, Luo Zhendong roared, slashing out with his war blade, instantly killing several large mutant black bees.

In the surrounding area, other members of HXLZ were also killing off some of the mutant black bees.

Besides the corpses of these mutant black bees, there were also the bodies of some ordinary people on the ground.

These mutant creatures posed a significant threat to ordinary people.

“Coach Luo! The building over there has been detonated!” At that moment, a voice came from behind.

“Detonated!? Who did it!?” Luo Zhendong was stunned, then immediately shouted.

“Not sure! Luo Xue was still in that area just now, and Li Ye and others have gone back to check the situation!” The armored man quickly replied.

Now, with the sudden downpour, power outage, and this incident, the situation in Longyin City was grim!

“This…” Hearing his words, Luo Zhendong’s pupils contracted slightly. “Let’s go back and take a look first!”

He scanned the surroundings. Although it was night, the thermal imaging scan attached to the battle suit showed no signs of mutant creatures around.

This area was temporarily cleared.

But as he turned to rush back to the building, he noticed a dark red light emanating from a high-rise not far away!

What is that!?

In the power outage, this dark red light was exceptionally conspicuous.

Luo Zhendong had a vague sense that something was wrong. He leaped to a high point nearby and looked into the distance, seeing it more clearly.

It seemed like a crystal emitting this light…

“Crystal core!?” Luo Zhendong immediately realized, his pupils contracting in an instant.

“Luo Zhendong! Respond if you receive this message!” At that moment, a hurried voice came through the communicator in Luo Zhendong’s ear.

It was from the Longyin City command center!

“This is Luo Zhendong!” he immediately replied.

“The lifeform detection radar has detected a large energy lifeform approaching your location from the eastern coastal direction of Longyin City!” the person from the command center urgently reported.

Longyin City had recently installed the latest lifeform radars developed by headquarters. These were positioned in various coastal areas around Longyin City, providing coverage of the entire city and monitoring strong life energy signals near the ocean.

These radars were specifically designed to detect these mutant creatures!

“What!?” Luo Zhendong gasped at the message from the communicator.

A large lifeform!

It must be a powerful mutant creature!

“Is it moving fast!?”

“Very fast! If it continues at this speed, it will reach your area in about ten minutes!”

Hearing this, Luo Zhendong’s expression turned extremely grim.

This was a big problem!

“What should we do now!?” Luo Zhendong asked, regaining his composure.

“There are many residents here. If you can’t handle it, try to lure it out of the city!” the voice continued through the earpiece.

If this large mutant creature attacked the nearby buildings, it would result in significant casualties!

“Understood!”

“I think I know why it’s coming!” Luo Zhendong replied while looking towards the top of the building ahead.

That crystal!

The light from that crystal had attracted the large mutant creature.

“There’s some device enhancing the crystal’s energy glow, attracting mutant creatures around Longyin City…”

Someone did this on purpose!

“Follow me to the roof! There must be EL organization members up there!” Luo Zhendong shouted.

“Yes!”

The armored personnel charged towards the area.

…

“It’s coming! It’s coming! Haha!”

At that moment, in the eastern coastal area of Longyin City, a man hidden in the darkness controlled an oval-shaped flying object, directing it from the ocean towards the city.

This flying object emitted low-frequency ultrasound waves towards the city.

Behind the flying object, a massive white figure surged forward.

Boom!

With a swift dive, the creature extended its huge claw, grabbing and crushing the flying object instantly!

“Hiss!”

It was a gigantic mutant bird!

Its wings spread wide, seemingly covering the entire area.

Its sharp eyes, emitting a crimson glow, glanced around at the crushed flying object, then looked towards the distant area where the dark red light was shining.

Letting out a piercing cry, it flapped its wings and flew towards the distant light.

“Heh, heh, it worked. As long as this mutant creature is lured into the city, let’s see how they handle it.”

The man emerged from the shadows, his face twisted into a sinister smile.

“And the glow from that crystal will attract other mutant creatures from the forests around Longyin City.”

“Get ready for disaster!”

…

TL: Hi everyone, I’ve been using raws that were missing some very minor details (like system parentheses). They were skipping some things?? Anyways, now I’ve switched sources and it should be better now, though there still are some missing things.
