Chapter 141 Deformed and Bizarre
Those people weren't targeting Chen Qing because of the Cross Star incident; they were just using it as a pretext to kill Chen Qing, their strongest contender for the rankings.
From the moment the Cross Star incident occurred, they were prepared to use it as an opportunity to cause trouble.
Chen Qing's current reputation is largely due to the efforts of those people.
Born on Earth, they possess some morality and a sense of order, but not much.
In essence, they are no different from those bandits; they bully the weak and fear the strong.
When encountering someone stronger than themselves, they try to use morality, law, and order to coerce them; when encountering someone weaker than themselves, they resort to forceful suppression.
Aside from Chen Qing, the lone wolf, Bai Xian, and a merchant guild, the top ten on the activity leaderboard are mostly national forces from Blue Star.
Apart from the Dragon Kingdom, where Chen Qing comes from, other countries would certainly not be happy to see Chen Qing take the top spot on the leaderboard.
Chen Qing winning first place is no different from Longguo winning first place; Longguo can completely rely on Chen Qing's success.
The survivor named Chen Qing certainly wouldn't mind, judging from what she did.
Therefore, those foreign powers certainly do not want Chen Qing to be number one on the leaderboard.
If they can't defeat Chen Qing head-on, then they can only resort to underhanded tactics.
They tricked a large group of civilian survivors into causing trouble for Chen Qing.
Believe it or not, those survivors were incredibly easy to fool. In a fit of temper, they charged at Chen Qing with a roar.
Those countries are already in a state of chaos, with theft, robbery, gun violence, and contraband rampant, and all forms of political correctness taking precedence over everything else.
The survivors in their country are naturally quite strange as well.
However, these survivors couldn't find Chen Qing at all.
A colossal mechanical beast that emerged from the deep sea shattered their ship, sending all the survivors into the ocean.
When Chen Qing passed by in his small boat, only some shipwrecks remained floating on the sea.
It was truly a case of dying before even getting started.
Most importantly, Chen Qing was still sleeping in the cabin and had no idea that the survivors had appeared.
If one plan fails, another will be devised.
Those politicians are extremely ruthless.
However, in the face of absolute force, any conspiracy or trickery is nothing but a paper tiger.
Chen Qing's fighting prowess far surpasses that of those politicians and their henchmen.
Faced with this group of people, Chen Qing was fully capable of overturning the table.
Just kill them.
Although Chen Qing was busy, Fire Monkey and his group were quite free.
Chen Qing simply gave the orders and let them do it; he didn't like being bothered by such troublesome matters.
She's in a hurry to deal with the Mantis Blade Dance now; Blood Spirit is nothing compared to the real trouble with the Mantis Blade Dance.
When Chen Qing arrived at the deep-sea aquaculture farm on Diamond Island after traveling day and night, the place was already in complete chaos.
Countless carcasses of sea monsters floated in the dark sea, stretching for thousands of miles, a truly awe-inspiring sight from afar.
Not only were there sea monsters, but also a number of human remains among the sea monster corpses.
Several pale heads lay quietly in the seawater, turning with the current.
This place is more like a marine mammal graveyard than a fish farm.
As Chen Qing approached the fish farm, he noticed that the protective measures erected on Diamond Island had long been damaged.
According to Chen Qing's knowledge, each sea beast died very quickly and cleanly, but their bodies suffered a lot of torment after death.
There were still many signs of nibbling on these corpses, which should have been left by the Blood Spirit.
After examining the condition of the corpses, Chen Qing looked up and surveyed the entire farm. The atmosphere here was extremely eerie and eerily quiet, as if there wasn't a single living creature besides her.
However, according to the information sent back by Fengying Emerald and Mini Rabbit, neither Sword Dance Mantis nor Blood Spirit, nor the two unlucky ones, Shangjia White Fairy, have left this area.
Chen Qing did not act rashly, considering that they should still be in this area.
The atmosphere here is so strange; it seems that the Mantis Dance is far more difficult to deal with than she imagined.
Blood Spirit is very likely no match for Blade Dance Mantis.
Chen Qing's heart sank; she had been too hasty.
Just as Chen Qing was pondering how to deal with the Sword Dance Mantis, a sea monster corpse not far away suddenly exploded!
The enormous impact pulverized its body, sending chunks of flesh and organs flying far away!
A foul-smelling intestine was flung onto the half of the fish tail in front of Chen Qing, almost breaking the tail off!
The explosion sounded unusually abrupt in the silent deep sea, and the next second, a distorted figure appeared in Chen Qing's sight.
She recognized it immediately as a Scyther, but...
Although he knew it was a Scyther, Chen Qing was still somewhat surprised by the Scyther's current appearance.
It appears to have suffered a very serious attack, as its body is badly damaged.
The Blade Dancer has pieced together mechanical parts of unknown origin onto its body, and the non-compliant components have made its shape very strange.
The most terrifying thing is that the Sword Dance Mantis actually installed all sorts of marine and human limbs on its body!
Compared to a praying mantis, it now looks more like a centipede, a hybrid centipede with a bizarre and varied body.
Bizarre, deformed, and disgusting!
The moment it raised its head, a human skin was clearly pasted on its face!
The non-human creature's twisted and deformed body, with human skin tightly pressed against its face, dragged everything towards the direction of a horror movie.
At this moment, Chen Qing finally understood why the Mechanical Association had explicitly prohibited the study of things inside the mechanical ruins, and why Xia Li had the same attitude back then.
The problem with the Scyther is not as simple as it being out of control.
Chen Qing wasn't sure what its current condition was; on the surface, it seemed to be contaminated by a virus.
But based on Chen Qing's current knowledge, no virus has ever caused such changes in mechanical creations.
Mechanical creations are purely mechanical; they do not possess any human emotions and would never be like the sword-wielding mantis, which peels off human skin and attaches it to its own body.
This type does not exist in mechanical viruses.
Is this something it brought from the ruins?
Chen Qing had a terrifying thought: could the current state of the Mantis Dancer be contagious?
If that were the case... that would be terrifying.
For the deep blue sea, this would be a disaster ten thousand times more terrible than war.
There is still a chance to end the war with peace talks, but there is an unknown, contagious entity...
Fortunately, the appearance of the Sword Dance Mantis should not be contagious, and the Mini Rabbit that appeared in front of Chen Qing later confirmed Chen Qing's idea.
However, Mini Bunny... has been invaded by Scyther.
