Chapter 439 The Smell of Blood



Here, Zhou Zhiguo and others followed the traces and came to a river. They were all very surprised when they saw the calm river surface.

"Why is this river so quiet? Are all the mutated aquatic plants and animals gone?" Li Jun asked suspiciously.

"What?" Li Zhong exclaimed in disbelief.

"How is this possible?" Xia Xiaoying echoed, taking a few steps forward and craning her neck to look into the river.

"It's indeed gone, I just checked..." Su Yong confirmed while looking at the group of people.

“…”

The group of people standing by the river suddenly became quiet. They looked at the quiet river surface and remained silent. They only heard the river wind blowing their clothes, making a whistling sound.

"Did Ruoruo do all this?" Li Xue suddenly broke the silence and asked in disbelief.

"Who else could it be if not her?" Bai Bin answered without hesitation. Although he was extremely reluctant to admit it in his heart, he never denied Chen Ruoruo's strength.

"Look at the fish in this lake..." Before Mu Jiao finished speaking, she used her special ability to control the mutated plants on the shore, picked up a fish from the water and threw it on the ground.

Everyone looked at the fish that was thrown on the shore and was struggling frantically after being out of the water. Except for Su Yong and others, everyone else had a hint of familiarity in their eyes. This fish was exactly the same as the one they fed in the swimming pool at the Kyoto base.

Afterwards, Mou Jiao controlled the mutant plants and caught several fish from the water. Without exception, they were all exactly the same as the first one. There was indeed not a single mutant fish.

"It's true that Ruoruo did the right thing..."

"How could this be?"

"How on earth did she do that?"

"Also, where did those mutated aquatic plants and animals go?"

. . . . .

Zhou Zhiguo, Han Xiao and others looked at the fish bouncing in front of them, their eyes full of shock and disbelief. They had more or less understood the ferocity and difficulty of aquatic mutant animals and plants.

Su Yong had just confirmed that there were no other mutant creatures in the river. They simply couldn't understand how Chen Ruoruo had done it.

Su Yong and others saw that Zhou Zhiguo and Han Xiao had all fallen silent and did not say anything more. At this moment, they were also shocked.

After all, this is not just about dealing with a few mutated aquatic animals, but an entire river of mutated aquatic plants and animals are gone. Not only that, they have all been replaced with non-mutated creatures.

No matter which of these things is done, it is an impossible task for them.

And now, it has indeed been done by Chen Ruoruo.

"Why do I smell a bloody smell?" Han Xiao said with a frown.

"Don't mention it, Captain Han, now that you mention it, I can actually smell a faint smell of blood in the air..." Li Xue also sniffed and then smelled the fishy smell in the air.

"All the mutated aquatic plants and animals in this river have been killed. How can the smell of blood not be strong?" Li Jun shrugged and said aloud while looking at the entire river.

After hearing what Li Jun said, the group turned and looked at him without blinking. Li Jun was looked at by the group and thought that he had said something wrong again, but after thinking about it, he could not help but turn his head to look at Zhou Zhiguo beside him.

"Everyone, spread out along the river and take a look upstream and downstream..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at the fish that were gradually calming down on the ground, then looked up and said to the group.

"Okay..." After hearing Zhou Zhiguo's words, the group immediately split into two teams without hesitation and headed upstream and downstream. Given the situation in the river, they didn't have to worry about being suddenly attacked by mutated aquatic plants and animals.

When everyone came back again, everyone's face looked very bad.

"Did you find anything?"

"There are some bloodstains on the riverbank upstream..."

"The mud on the downstream shore is stained with blood, and there are even some skeletal fragments of mutated aquatic animals that didn't wash away..."

Zhou Zhiguo's brows furrowed deeper as he listened to the group's feedback. Based on just this, he still couldn't figure out how Chen Ruoruo did it. They had all seen her take action, but there was no trace of her taking action around them. This made them very confused.

"Let's go... to the next place..." After waiting for a while, Zhou Zhiguo looked at the river in front of him, turned around and said to the group.

Perhaps, it was because they arrived too late and the traces were washed away by the river, so they could not find them.

Afterwards, they reported the situation back to the Kyoto base. When Su Qin heard the news, he couldn't help but feel a strong shock in his heart.

Considering what Chen Ruoruo had done before, he completely understood the real purpose of her series of actions and confirmed his guess again.

After realizing what Chen Ruoruo was going to do, Su Qin made a prompt decision and quickly issued orders to Zhou Zhiguo and others as well as various bases, asking them not to push Chen Ruoruo too hard.

In this way, we can avoid over-stimulating Chen Ruoruo and causing unpredictable consequences. At the same time, we can also allow Chen Ruoruo to do what she wants as much as possible without completely losing any information about her.

At the same time, not long after Zhou Zhiguo and his companions left, Wu Feng and his companions also followed the trail and tracked them all the way to the foot of a mountain near the river.

"Brother Feng, have you found anything?" Song Yunfeng asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Yunfeng, don't you find it too quiet here?" Wu Feng looked around, frowned slightly, and answered thoughtfully.

"Yes, it is true..." Song Yunfeng's heart tightened when he heard this, and he quickly agreed.

Just as the two were talking, suddenly, a slight sound of flowing water came into their ears.

"There's the sound of water over there..." Wu Feng said vigilantly, looking in the direction of the sound.

When everyone heard Wu Feng's words, they stopped and held their breath. Then they really heard the faint sound of flowing water, and then they smelled the fishy smell floating in the air with the wind.

"Everyone be careful and stay alert..." Song Yunfeng said in a low and serious voice.

"Yes..." When the group heard Song Yunfeng's words, their nerves tensed instantly, and then they immediately mobilized their special abilities. Everyone stood back to back and walked forward carefully.

The whole journey was silent, with only the occasional crack of branches breaking and the sound of people breathing heavily. Everyone approached the river with trepidation.

However, when everyone arrived at the riverside, they were all stunned for a moment when they saw the situation in front of them.

"How... could it be like this?" Looking at the extremely calm river surface in front of them, the group unconsciously relaxed their vigilance and couldn't help but stand on the river bank and look at it curiously.

"This...could it be Chen Ruoruo who did this?"

"I guess... not..."

"But she's been here, hasn't she?"

"What's wrong with being here? Aren't we here now?"

. . . . .

However, although Zhou Zhiguo, Wu Feng and others did not see Chen Ruoruo this time, they confirmed the information they had received before and the analysis of Chen Ruoruo's movements.
