Chapter 424: Three-Sided Blockade



After hearing the staff in charge of the transfer repeat the soldiers' findings, "Xiaosheng" immediately realized that something was wrong.

Putting down the communicator, she put on her coat and went out while recalling the several strange beasts she had encountered with the super-powered "Shadow Master" some time ago, that is, last year.

What is certain is that the one dancing with his hands and feet is definitely not the cat-shaped monster that called himself "Ms. Human". That guy can speak human language. If she was present, it must be her who came to communicate. It seems that she should be one of those guys who looked a bit stupid at the time.

Before the sun set, "Xiaosheng" arrived at the south gate of Hope City.

Looking at the huge strange beast in the distance, that guy was still dancing, swinging his long nose back and forth, looking quite annoyed.

"Let me down."

"Xiao Sheng" said to the soldier who was operating the elevator beside him.

"Well, aren't you going to wait for other superpowers to arrive before taking action?"

"No need, I've asked them to go back and rest."

"Xiao Sheng" said, stepping over the city wall and entering the hanging basket.

"The latest notice said that these rational beasts are very friendly to humans. I believe our Speaker."

The soldiers around didn't say anything more. The two people who first discovered it also crossed the city wall and entered the hanging basket, automatically assuming the responsibility of protection.

Although "Xiaosheng" did not take the initiative to ask for it, for most soldiers, they firmly believed that the lives of people with super powers were more precious.

The elevator descended to the ground, and the three of them opened the guardrail door and stepped onto the ground outside the city.

The huge monster not far away saw that a human had finally noticed its signal and wanted to run over happily, but was blocked outside the red line.

The three of them walked forward to the large strange beast that was several meters tall. The two soldiers put their index fingers on the triggers, and "Xiaosheng" stretched out his hand towards the strange beast in front of him.

After listening carefully for a while, "Xiaosheng" nodded and made a series of strange sounds.

Of course the two soldiers didn't understand what she said, but the strange beast seemed very happy after hearing it.

"Xiaosheng" took out two tubes of nutritional paste from his backpack, tore open the package and put them into the soft nose in front of him, then took the two soldiers back to the elevator.

The road with your back to the strange beasts is always the most difficult to walk. The two soldiers were always worried that those seemingly friendly monsters would turn against them and attack them, but they couldn't look back frequently, as that would make them seem very insincere.

The tension made them quicken their pace, but "Xiaosheng" had no such worries.

Finally, the three of them stood in the elevator basket again. Looking at the ground moving away, the two soldiers sighed:

"May I ask what the strange beast said?"

A soldier asked "Xiao Sheng",

"If it's confidential, just pretend I didn't ask."

Xiaosheng thought for a moment and said:

“It’s important, but it’s not confidential.

"When the beasts were hunting during the day, they discovered new fungal mats and new species of beasts that they had never seen before in the south of Hope City, so they specifically reminded us."

"What is a fungal blanket?"

another soldier asked.

"Xiaosheng" took a deep breath and explained:

"Didn't you listen to the Speaker's speech?"

"We were on duty on the city wall at the time, and the radio signal was not very good."

"Xiaosheng" felt that the soldiers should not be blamed for such things, so he explained in a gentle tone:

“The strange beasts outside the city are just vanguards, our real enemy is a kind of mycelial life form.

"When those creatures expand, they will first use fungal blankets and alien beasts to clear the way. Those friendly alien beasts saw the fungal blankets in the south, which means that our enemies have made new moves."

The two soldiers who had been on duty at the southern wall for many years suddenly looked serious when they heard this:

"Is it so serious? Can we report this intelligence to our superiors?"

"No need, just continue on duty, I will take care of everything."

Although "Xiao Sheng" was not good at fighting, she had been on several missions and knew that reports from super-powered people were always the fastest, so she took the initiative to take on this responsibility and quickly reported the matter.

Today, Fran is not leading a team outside the city. At this moment, she is in Ji Yongxing's laboratory describing the terrible scene in the distance in the southern part of Hope City.

After carefully asking for information about the abyss, Ji Yongxing looked at the test tubes filled with sticky substances in front of him and said:

"Do you think that voice comes from the bottom of your heart?"

"right."

Fran nodded:

"It was summoning creatures to get close to it. Several beasts slowly fell behind during the retreat. I saw with my own eyes that they returned to their original positions and then jumped down without any hesitation."

"Okay, I will study this further. As for you..."

Ji Yongxing looked at Fran in front of him:

"Don't go there for the latest exploration mission."

After seeing Fran off, Bazel walked into Ji Yongxing's room with a stack of documents:

"Team leader, I have some preliminary results."

"Tell me about it."

Basel seemed to be more suitable for the research institute. It only took him two or three days to return to his peak state. He was also very happy to do research work, at least there was no intrigue like in his previous position.

Ji Yongxing had already made plans in his mind. After a week of observation time, he would formally write a document to transfer him to his own team.

"I requested a lot of information from the Spire database, including some images of the spacecraft that just landed on this planet."

Bazel arranged several high-definition pictures in order:

"What we can confirm now is that when the spacecraft landed more than 50 years ago, there were no plants on this planet, and the soil was basically different from the types on the mother planet. Now the ground beneath Hope City is the result of transformation using the instruments on the spacecraft.

"The exploration team at that time was led by...Mr. Wen Cheng, who recorded many primitive conditions on the planet, including a cracked surface.

"After repeated comparisons, I can basically confirm that this relatively shallow but raised crack that extends for more than ten kilometers is a metal vein in the northern part of Xiwang City.

"If we use the plate compression theory to explain this structure, there are still many things that don't make sense. This planet is so strange, it's like... it's like it's man-made."

Ji Yongxing fell into deep thought. He had considered Basel's idea before. A powerful alien civilization might be able to do such a thing, but if they really did so, what was their purpose?

Furthermore, there were no traces of man-made objects on this planet, no buildings or writings, and the layers of the ground were very clear. From the perspective of the planet, it was almost too perfect...

The young researcher, who had no other thoughts, looked at his team members:

"Very good results, keep following up."
