The murky river water revealed the dark figure, a somewhat ferocious-looking monster whose entire body was covered by long, black hair, making it impossible to discern any facial features.
There was only one large mouth with bloody, sharp teeth, and bloodstains seemed to be flowing from its teeth.
The several superhumans who saw the face were immediately stunned for a moment, and then they thought of the superhuman who had been bitten earlier.
“Captain Ye, we don’t know if this monster is carrying any virus,” one of the superhumans said.
Ye Shang frowned slightly: "You all step back a bit. This should be a water monster that has lived here for many years."
This creature seemed quite skilled at hunting, indicating that it had already hunted down quite a few humans.
The water monster bared its large, menacing mouth, looking disgusting and terrifying.
Ye Shang searched his memory but found no record of ever seeing this water monster, ruling out the possibility that it came from somewhere else.
It seems that it can only be a monster that was newly born in this world or evolved from some kind of underwater creature.
This thing was still overwhelming for Ye Shang. With her current cultivation level, she no longer took it seriously. She was just a little puzzled as to why such a monster had suddenly appeared.
I wonder if there are monsters along this river downstream.
Ye Shang used a light shadow to draw a spatial seal on the monster's body. The next moment, the monster, which had been hovering on the river, began to struggle violently.
The voice sounded strange and unpleasant, which was the general consensus among the people.
The monster, trapped in a small, sealed space, desperately tried to bite at the transparent space with its long, sharp teeth.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard it tried, the space continued to compress, and its sharp teeth gradually showed signs of breaking. Until the space was sealed smaller and smaller, the monster finally exploded into blood and foam in the tightly compressed space.
Ye Shang then swung his light shadow and sliced open the space, the blood foam that instantly exploded out flowing into the river.
They were standing on relatively high ground, so the exploding blood and foam didn't get on them.
This move was originally a technique that Qingli often used. Later, Ye Shang thought that this attack method was also good. When she didn't want to use her devouring ability, she could blow up all the enemies here.
However, she is used to using light shadows to draw space, while Qingli directly draws space with her hands to attack.
Ye Shang glanced at the river water that had already flowed away and said, "You guys go and check downstream and upstream to see if there are any more of these water monsters. Be careful to stay away from the water."
Several flying ability users replied in unison, "Yes, Captain Ye."
After saying that, they each flew away in a flash.
Ye Shang then returned to the base camp and saw many people surrounding the injured superhuman.
His complexion had improved considerably, but he still looked somewhat distressed as he lay on the bed.
His wrist was bitten off, and the pain he experienced made him reluctant to recall it. But now, the tingling sensation in his hand constantly reminds him that there is no hand below his wrist.
Seeing his expression, Ye Shang walked up to him and said, "I heard that the research institute has recently developed something that can connect to neural bionic machines. You can go and see if you can connect one."
Upon hearing Ye Shang's words, Wang Xin's eyes seemed to regain a glimmer of hope. "Captain Ye, can I have a bionic robotic arm installed?"
Wang Xin was the superhuman whose wrist was bitten off. His superhuman ability was that transparent wings would grow on his back, allowing him to fly to a height of 10,000 meters. Therefore, he was always classified as a flying superhuman.
Ye Shang thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. I'll send a message to the research institute, and we can install it when we get back after the mission."
Wang Xin was instantly speechless with gratitude: "Thank you, Captain Ye, thank you."
Ye Shang nodded slightly: "Get some rest."
After saying that, he left the tent. Han Yi and Song Wenwen, who were outside, came forward when they saw Ye Shang come out.
Han Yi glanced at the tent and said, "What bit you?"
When he was carried back, his entire arm was in a sling, covered in blood and gore. Fortunately, the healer managed to stop the bleeding in time and used his powers to heal the wound on his wrist. However, it still needed to be bandaged to help it heal faster.
Healers with superpowers can generally only heal wounds to about seven or eight-tenths of their original state, but some high-level healers can even reattach severed limbs.
The premise is that the injured person's severed limb still exists.
Obviously, Wang Xin did not meet this condition, as his wrist had been eaten by the water monster, and there was no way to reattach the severed limb.
This caused Wang Xin to fall into a state of sadness.
Ye Shang said, "It is a water monster hidden at the bottom of rivers. It has a strange appearance and its ferocity may be a bit too much for ordinary superhumans."
Ye Shang might be able to kill it easily, but it would be extremely dangerous for other ordinary ability users.
This is also why Ye Shang considered having the other ability users investigate; if there are any more, they should all be eliminated.
This place is probably very close to the base, and if any superhumans go out on missions, they could easily be killed or injured.
Although the base already has many superhumans, losing even one superhuman means losing combat power, resulting in a loss as well.
If Ye Shang suppresses all of this before it happens, then he can prevent these superhumans from dying in a river.
Song Wenwen asked, "Captain Ye, do we still need to go to H City?"
They saw from outside that the large horde of zombies had all moved away. If there was no one left in the city, could they go in and take a look at the legendary underground cemetery?
Ye Shang said, "Let's go tomorrow. It's getting late today, and we need to assign people who can go."
There's no bridge right now, so people need to be carried across by flying ability users to get to the other side, so we need to make some arrangements.
Song Wenwen nodded, "Understood, I will go down and make the arrangements."
After discussing it for a while, the group went back to their own tasks. Han Yi, as the head of the post-production department, still needed to arrange staffing, accommodation, meals, and so on.
Song Wenwen returned to her tent. Since she was with her fiancé, Han Yi simply let the two of them stay together. The rest of the tents were basically four people to a tent.
Apart from Ye Shang, no one mentioned where she would stay. He originally wanted to arrange for her to stay in a room by herself, since she was a leader and it was only natural for her to stay in a single room.
However, Ye Shang refused. She didn't need to stay in a tent; she simply placed a soft chair by the campfire outside and sat down.
This location is very close to the river, giving you the feeling of sitting right by the river and enjoying the scenery.
Although there is no scenery to be seen now, Ye Shang himself is like a scene in this world.
