Five o'clock in the afternoon, in the coniferous forest near the manor.
The soldiers took turns to gather together and have dinner.
Andrew was sitting alone in the black bulletproof car he had taken when he came here, looking at a pile of documents beside him and falling into deep thought.
"Is it some kind of monster? Or some special technological means?"
Andrew narrowed his eyes, and at the same time, a hint of disbelief flashed across his eyes as he looked serious.
All the traces and evidence put together paint a very clear picture.
A huge thing that was more than ten meters long suddenly attacked here.
Houses were knocked down and dungeons were trampled down.
Countless bullets and RPG counterattacks were unable to even destroy the skin of that huge thing.
Then, the huge thing chased all the way into the dense forest, crashing countless trees and killing those who escaped.
Thinking of this, Andrew couldn't help but remain silent for a long time.
Something that is not afraid of bullets and RPGs? Rather than believing that it was a monster that was more than ten meters long, Andrew would rather believe that it was some kind of machine developed by the big country in the East.
Could it be that the red team really has a Gundam?
After all, his common sense told him that it was impossible for any carbon-based creature to withstand the power of modern weapons.
After a long pause, he pointed to the document in his hand.
[A huge circular high-temperature burn mark was found on the ground of the manor]
Andrew looked at the information on the document and felt that it might be the key to understanding the truth.
While I was thinking, someone knocked on the car window.
Andrew looked in the direction of the voice and saw Major General Chris holding a tablet.
"This is top secret information, sent from the testing agency, and you and I are designated to review it."
Major General Chris handed over the tablet.
"Have you seen it?"
Andrew took the tablet and squinted subconsciously.
Various samples were collected at the manor today and rushed to a secret testing agency by helicopter.
The information sent back now is actually top secret.
"Um."
Major General Chris nodded, with an indescribable complex look in his eyes.
Andrew took a deep breath upon seeing this, and after verifying a series of biometric information and passwords, he slowly clicked on the details of the top-secret information.
[After testing, soil, bullets, flesh, and tree fibers all contain some special biological cells that do not match any currently known species. Its specificity needs further research.]
Seeing this message, Andrew fell silent.
The biological cells showed that Andrew's hope that it was a machine was shattered. There was indeed a giant creature that could not be killed by guns and was wreaking havoc here last night.
As for not matching any known species...
This information is equally outrageous.
Theoretically, there are still many creatures in this world that have not been discovered.
But this does not include this giant beast over ten meters long that lives on land. It is impossible for such a creature to remain undiscovered by humans until now.
In other words, this manor may have experienced an extraordinary event last night, being slaughtered by an alien creature more than ten meters in size, or it may have experienced an alien incident from outer space.
But this also gives rise to a new question.
"Where is that monster now?"
Andrew murmured.
Where did the monster go after it crushed the people? No evidence was found at the scene to determine the monster's whereabouts. The potholes that looked like footprints only went as far as part of the dense forest.
Moreover, are there other similar monsters in the world? Does the United States have the ability to violently deal with this monster?
These are undoubtedly issues that their national security agencies need to worry about.
Andrew murmured, frowning.
"This is the issue we are going to deal with next." Major General Chris said on the side.
"us?"
Andrew raised his eyebrows, somewhat puzzled.
"The higher-ups think you might need military support when necessary, so they let you be responsible for finding and solving various problems without worrying about it. I will be responsible for helping you fight the monsters whenever you call."
Chris pointed at the tank behind him and smiled confidently.
There haven't been any wars to fight recently, so using this important secret mission as an excuse, he pulled over a main battle tank to play with.
Chris didn't think there was any monster that could withstand the 12.7mm machine guns and 120mm smoothbore cannons.
Caliber is justice.
………………………………
Taos Town.
This is a small town located at the foot of the San Cristo Mountains.
Half of the buildings here are among the oldest, most beautiful and best-preserved Indian buildings in the southwestern United States. The San Cristo Mountains adjacent to it are a dream destination for adventurers. There are more than 80 galleries within its borders.
Therefore, this place is a resting place for countless archaeologists, tourists, adventurers, and artists.
In a small villa in the town, Russell sat on the second-floor balcony, gazing into the distance as the setting sun approached.
This is the base their team rented nearby.
After escaping from the spider monster, he was brought back by team members who noticed something was wrong and came to pick him up.
After half a day's recuperation, he had already recovered and was full of energy.
After all, his back was only swept by the spider monster's legs in the air, and the air wave caused a burning wound, which was not serious.
After applying the medicine, I bandaged it.
Apart from that, there were residual anesthetic effects and psychological pressure, which were mostly gone in half a day.
Romero's injury was more serious, and he has just been rescued by the busy team members.
He is still in a coma.
Sitting in a chair on the balcony, Russell fell into deep thought as he watched the people coming and going in the town.
This time, they did manage to eliminate a source of slaves from Southeast Asia, but they didn't try to destroy it.
Instead, he encountered a spider monster.
According to several members of the team who were there to pick him up, they observed something from afar with a telescope: the gigantic spider monster that was chasing him was roasted directly by the man who descended from the sky at dawn with a beam of light that penetrated the sky and the earth.
Russell did not see that scene before he fell into a coma, but he could imagine that the monster's scream at that time was probably its cry of death.
“I only discovered this after living for so many years.”
"There are supernatural monsters in this world, and there are also extraordinary humans."
“It’s like living in an adventure novel.”
Russell sighed and felt a little complicated.
The worldview that had been stable for thirty-two years collapsed in an instant today, and the perception of the world that I had firmly believed in before is now shaken.
Is all the history and knowledge we know really what we think it is?
He couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Russell understood that his teammates who had also witnessed the extraordinary were also shocked.
But everyone's attention has been on the seriously injured Romero since they returned at dawn.
It was not until Romero's half-day treatment was finally completed that everyone had the time to think about what everything they encountered at dawn meant.
There are extraordinary people in this world!
