"These monkeys are probably Tibetan macaques, originally a larger species of macaque." "You know all the monkeys in Mount Emei, they belong to this species." With Ellie away, Song Yan took on the role of temporary biological analyst. Hearing about the monkeys in Mount Emei, Qi Hao gritted his teeth. "No wonder I wanted to club these monkeys to death the first time I saw them. They're related to the monkeys in Mount Emei." Anyone who has traveled to Mount Emei and had the nerve to handle food has experienced the "monkey bullying" that those mean monkeys can be. "Tibetan macaques live in groups." "But there are only a dozen or so monkeys in that group six kilometers away. I suspect they were driven out by the group, or maybe... they're sentinels." The word "sentinel" made everyone's heart sink. Qin Xiao nodded. "I agree. Those monkeys are now about the size of an average adult, and they're also stronger than an average person. They've already shown clear imitation and learning behaviors. I think they need to be eliminated." He looked at Shi Man. "If the developing catastrophic-level mutants we're tasked with eliminating this time are these Tibetan macaques, then we might be facing a real horde of monkeys later." "Those dozen or so monkeys six kilometers away are perfect for practice." "If it's a sentry post, we must eradicate them completely. Absolutely no one can escape, or else the horde will attack, and we'll be in trouble," echoed Shanmao. Shi Man didn't comment. The system didn't explain what the S-level catastrophic-level creatures were. But considering their high intelligence and potential for group advancement, they could be monkeys. Humans are originally upright apes, so it makes sense for the monkey population to be the first to advance. "Let's practice first. If it's a sentry post, there's bound to be another one." Shi Man made a decision. "I demand a 100% kill rate." "Are we going to act tonight?" Meng Xiaodao rubbed his hands in anticipation. "Monkeys are diurnal, and their hearing and sense of smell aren't as good as cats and dogs," Shi Man said. "Besides, they're not that far from us anyway. If we don't destroy their den tonight, we'll encounter them during the day!" They acted immediately. Zhou Feifei's drone perched on the leaves above the monkey herd, monitoring its movements from above. A dozen figures flitted through the pitch-black forest, their black combat uniforms blending seamlessly into the darkness. These Pure Land Black Technology uniforms completely blocked out thermal imaging. Tactical helmets and visors covered their faces, and night vision lenses on one side allowed for a clear view of the terrain in the darkness. The other lens displayed the drone's view, allowing them to monitor the monkey herd's movements in real time. As the figures moved at high speed, as agile as cheetahs, two more miniature drones took off, controlled by Shi Man and Qin Xiao. One scouted ahead, avoiding potential dangers, while the other followed closely, keeping tabs on everything around them. When they were still two kilometers away from the monkey group, everyone slowed down. Shi Man quickly made a series of hand gestures, and the team immediately split into three groups. The sense of smell of Tibetan macaques is much weaker than that of other mammals. Primates generally use vision as the dominant sense. Although their hearing can detect unusual sounds within 300-500 meters in the forest, the binaural time difference positioning ability of Tibetan macaques is weaker than that of many nocturnal animals, so they cannot accurately lock the direction of the sound source. Their individual response efficiency to distant sounds is low, and they rely on the collective "alert chain" reaction. Judging from the feedback from the drone, this group of alienated Tibetan macaques still has "shortcomings" in this regard, which gives Shi Man and his team a good opportunity to launch a sneak attack at night! Three teams, each in their positions! Shi Man waved his hand forward. The mythical beast Meow Meow and the cyber dog took the lead in attacking! The monkey killing operation begins——
