Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 408
Chapter 408: That Ruin
TL: Etude
At this moment, everyone’s expressions turned solemn.
Zhang Tiansheng and Zhang Tianyang gripped their weapons tightly.
“There shouldn’t be any creatures left.”
After thinking for a moment, Luo Xue headed directly towards the huge spaceship ahead.
“Be careful!” As Zhang Tiansheng called out, he followed her inside.
Soon, everyone entered the massive spaceship.
As soon as they stepped in, the interior of the ship lit up.
The internal structure of this ship was almost identical to the ones Luo Xue had seen before.
The ship’s interior was vast. As Luo Xue and the others walked around, observing, they did not encounter any other creatures.
As time passed, more and more HLXZ members appeared around them.
Government personnel also began arriving from another direction, sealing off the entire surrounding area.
The events in the northern district of Longyin City sparked heated discussions online.
However, there was no attempt to block the information now. The government openly announced that an alien spaceship had landed in the northern district.
While the ordinary citizens of Longyin City were somewhat frightened, the situation was resolved successfully, which reassured many.
“Those Five-Headed Dragon emerged from the ground here.”
By the next morning, Zhang Tiansheng stood by the area with the enormous fissure, looking down into its unfathomable depths.
“These creatures from the Behemoth Clan were killed over there. That area should be your Longyin City’s Dragon Mountain, right?” Zhang Tianyang gazed into the distance and continued speaking.
“Yes.” Zhang Tiansheng nodded slightly.
“Dragon Mountain… So, the fire dragon that appeared last night lives there?”
Luo Zhendong, also standing there, looked towards Dragon Mountain in the distance.
Even earlier, the flora and fauna on Dragon Mountain had undergone significant changes.
Especially the plants on the mountain, which had grown to towering heights, transforming the entire mountain into what seemed like a primeval forest.
“I heard the plants and animals on Dragon Mountain had evolved significantly, right?” As Zhang Tianyang looked towards Dragon Mountain, he spoke softly.
“The mountain is not renowned for its height but for its spiritual presence, and the water is not known for its depth but for the dragons it harbors. The fire dragon is very likely residing in Dragon Mountain.”
He spoke with certainty.
“Yes. However, we cannot approach Dragon Mountain rashly.” Zhang Tiansheng nodded slightly, looking at them seriously.
Judging by recent events, the fire dragon clearly stood on their side.
If the fire dragon indeed resided in Dragon Mountain, a sudden visit might provoke its anger.
After all, all mutant creatures have a strong sense of territoriality.
“Of course. I’m not an idiot.” Zhang Tianyang smirked.
At that moment, several figures clad in silver battle armor flew up from the enormous fissure below.
One of them was Luo Xue.
Since last night, they had not had time to rest.
They needed to ensure no other ETs or creatures were still alive.
If these creatures were to escape into the densely populated main district of Longyin City, it would spell disaster!
“There are no Behemoth Clan creatures left below,” Luo Xue said as she landed on the ground next to Zhang Tiansheng and the others. “Only some shattered stone statues.”
“That’s good,” they nodded slightly.
“For now, this matter is concluded,” Zhang Tianyang said. “The few ETs have been sent to headquarters in a frozen state. Do you all want to return to headquarters?”
“No,” Zhang Tiansheng replied, shaking his head. “Although the issue with the Five-Headed Dragon has been resolved, the fact that so many ships landed in Longyin City in one day suggests there is a reason. I need to investigate this reason and prevent further landings.”
Given the recent strange events in Longyin City, it seemed clear there were secrets yet to be uncovered. The appearance of the Behemoth Clan and the continual arrival of ETs indicated something more at play. With the ETs fully defeated this time, there was no guarantee that stronger ones wouldn’t come next.
“I will continue the task of recruiting warriors with Li Ye and the others,” Luo Zhendong said seriously. This had been their ongoing mission. As the concentration of the GT virus in the air continued to rise, many people experienced changes in their physical abilities due to the virus. Consequently, more individuals were becoming capable of becoming warriors.
“Alright,” Zhang Tianyang turned his gaze to Luo Xue. “What about you, Luo Xue?”
“I want to visit that ruin,” Luo Xue said seriously after a brief silence. This battle had made her acutely aware of her own insufficiency. Having encountered combat techniques, she was eager to acquire real combat skills for herself. The ruin that the commander and others had visited contained combat techniques.
“Are you talking about the one the chief commander went to?” Zhang Tianyang squinted his eyes.
“Yes,” Luo Xue replied earnestly.
“That ruin seems very dangerous…” Luo Zhendong said instinctively.
“With Luo Xue’s current strength, she can go,” Zhang Tiansheng said, looking at Zhang Tianyang. Although Zhang Tianyang was his younger brother, his influence at headquarters was greater, and he was currently the acting head of HLXZ.
“She can go,” Zhang Tianyang nodded. “Did you use combat techniques last night?”
Excitement gleamed in Zhang Tianyang’s eyes. Although he hadn’t seen it himself, he had heard that Luo Xue had used combat techniques. Combat techniques! This was a recent discovery. Powerful warriors could harness their inner energy to unleash formidable combat abilities, significantly enhancing their combat prowess.
“Yes,” Luo Xue responded.
Reflecting on the combat techniques she had used last night, she still found it somewhat unbelievable. The power unleashed by those techniques was indeed formidable. Knowing of their existence made Luo Xue realize how insignificant her own strength was in the vast universe. If level 7 ETs could use combat techniques, what about those at the eighth or ninth level?
Moreover, these ETs were merely pawns of the Cosmic Federation. If the highly intelligent beings of the Federation were to descend upon Earth, humanity’s current strength would spell certain doom!
