"Again!"
Jiang Nian'an conjured another longsword in her hand and charged towards the pangolin crocodile once more.
The pangolin crocodile was not as fast as Jiang Nian'an and could not dodge for a moment, so it used the same trick as before and spat at her.
This time, Jiang Nian'an didn't confront the black saliva head-on. Instead, she dodged to the side and seized the opportunity to slash the pangolin crocodile's neck with her sword.
Clang!
A metallic buzzing sound rang out, and Jiang Nian'an chopped off several scales from the pangolin crocodile's neck.
"Sister is amazing!"
Xiao Longzhan's eyes lit up as he looked at the scales on the ground.
He chased after the pangolin crocodile and swung his axe more than a dozen times, but he couldn't even cut off half a scale.
Jiang Nian'an shook her head slightly upon hearing this, "It's not that you're amazing, sister, but that these scales become stronger when they encounter powerful forces, but become thinner and more fragile when they encounter supernatural abilities."
She noticed its peculiarity when the longsword struck the scale.
"These scales are quite nice!"
Jiang Nian'an picked up a scale, her eyes burning with desire, "If we could make it into battle armor for the survivors, their survival rate would be greatly increased."
There aren't that many mutated creatures that have awakened superpowers; most of them still rely on brute force to attack.
Including the mutated monsters created by the Bi family experiment.
"I wonder if there are any other monsters like it in these mountains?"
When Xiao Longzhan heard Jiang Nian'an say that, his mind started to work, and his hand holding the hammer began to itch with excitement.
Although they hadn't killed the pangolin crocodile in front of them yet, he had already reserved its skin.
The pangolin crocodile skin was used to make clothes for my sister.
He also wanted to make a set for his brother-in-law, Grandpa Liu, second brother, third brother, Uncle Yun... and Uncle Thirteen, all those who loved him.
Xiao Longzhan silently calculated in his mind, there must be more than a hundred of them, right?
“We could choose an easier way, such as taking it back to the Beijing laboratory for research.”
With such excellent test subjects, the lab will surely be able to develop what we want very quickly.
Jiang Nian'an waved to Xiao Longzhan and Xiao Zi, signaling them to attack together, "Capture them alive."
"good!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Longzhan immediately abandoned the idea of finding other pangolin crocodiles. "Sister, Xiao Zi and I will intercept it. You tie it up!"
Although his hammer cannot harm it, it can leave it with nowhere to go, neither to heaven nor to hell.
"Um!"
Jiang Nian'an responded, and vines sprouted wildly from beneath her feet, quickly spreading until they enveloped the pangolin crocodile as well.
The pangolin-crocodile sensed something was wrong and tried to run away.
However, if it tries to escape on the ground, Xiao Longzhan will swing it back with a hammer, and if it tries to run underground, Xiao Zi will whip it out with her tail.
After several attempts, the pangolin crocodile was exhausted and panting heavily, with little strength left.
Jiang Nian'an bound it tightly with vines with almost no effort.
They focused on its mouth, wrapping it with over a hundred bandages.
Forget about spitting out black saliva, it even had difficulty breathing and was almost suffocating the pangolin crocodile.
"Sister, let me drag it!"
Xiao Longzhan put away the large iron hammer, took the vine from Jiang Nian'an, and dragged the pangolin crocodile forward.
Xiao Zi watched as Xiao Longzhan dragged the pangolin crocodile forward without turning his head, walking like an ever-victorious general, and fell silent.
Do you know the way? Then go!
It chased after it and managed to pull Xiao Longzhan's trouser leg to change course.
Jiang Nian'an couldn't help but smile as she watched this scene.
Just as she was about to follow, a sudden, inexplicable chill rose from the soles of her feet, making her shiver.
Jiang Nian'an quickly looked around, but there was nothing unusual.
The chill she felt earlier vanished the moment she turned her head.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Xiao Longzhan noticed that Jiang Nian'an hadn't followed, so he turned around and asked in confusion.
"It's okay, I'm coming right away!"
Jiang Nian'an acted as if nothing had happened and followed after him, taking the dead rat with her.
"Xiao Zi, are there any members of the Bi family at the place you're taking us to?"
Halfway there, Jiang Nian'an quietly asked Xiao Zi.
Xiao Zi shook her head.
"Is there something just as good as what we had just had?" Jiang Nian'an asked again.
This time, Xiao Zi nodded.
"Have the Bi family members we asked you to keep an eye on left?" Jiang Nian'an continued to ask.
Xiao Zi nodded again, then shrank back, listlessly hanging on Jiang Nian'an's shoulder, not daring to look at her.
The last time it went back to report the news, the people were gone when it returned.
It searched for a long time but couldn't find it, which meant that the task its owner had given it had failed.
In order to make amends, it diligently sought out things that would please its owner.
And it actually found it!
This is also why it returned to its owner ahead of schedule.
It cleared away the dangers in the underground warehouse beforehand, but failed to notice the dangers on this mountain.
Sigh, next time it will definitely have to be more careful!
Upon learning that the Bi family had fled, Jiang Nian'an immediately changed her mind.
"Let's not look for supplies elsewhere," she quickened her pace, "Let's go home now!"
"Sister, why?"
When Xiao Longzhan heard that Jiang Nian'an was going to give up the supplies she had obtained, he quickly asked.
There's something strange about this mountain!
While keeping a vigilant look around, Jiang Nian'an transmitted her thoughts to Xiao Longzhan, saying, "If we continue searching for the supplies Xiao Zi found, we might not be able to get down the mountain today."
【I understand, sister!】
Xiao Longzhan instantly understood her meaning, picked up the pangolin crocodile, and said, "Sister, let's walk faster."
The two quickened their pace as they descended the mountain, eventually even running.
They ran down the mountain in one go and then quickly sped onto the highway.
Jiang Nian'an took out a car.
Xiao Longzhan tossed the pangolin crocodile into the back seat, and the two quickly got into the car.
As Jiang Nian'an started the car and prepared to leave, she subconsciously glanced at the mountain she had just seen, only to find that it had vanished.
Instead, there is a small cluster of ancient buildings built against the mountainside.
"What's going on?" she exclaimed in shock.
Xiao Longzhan and Xiao Zi, not understanding what she was saying, turned their heads and looked out the window in the direction of her gaze.
With just one glance, their hearts were stirred up like Jiang Nian'an's.
Xiao Longzhan even jumped up, "Where's the mountain?"
Jiang Nian'an suddenly turned around and looked at the back seat, as if she had just thought of something.
The pangolin crocodile I just caught has turned into a wooden stake with several mutated poisonous mushrooms growing on it, emitting a smell extremely similar to bone-dissolving water.
