Yang Fan readily agreed: "Very wise!"
Sax County is a small city surrounding Yokoni City, just an hour’s drive away.
The activity range of Black Sand Poison Ant is extremely large, and the disaster will eventually reach Sax County.
This family is relocating not because monsters attacked Yokoni City.
Instead, it’s because there are too many Poisonous Mosquitoes in Sax County, and there’s news of a mutated Poisonous Mosquito appearing nearby.
They decided to move the whole family to the neighboring state to live with Johnson’s parents, so they could look out for each other.
A few seconds passed.
Yang Fan’s expression suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Mr. Johnson, stop the car!"
Johnson instinctively hit the brake: "What’s wrong?"
Through casual chatting on this journey, a certain level of trust had been established between both parties.
Yang Fan’s face was quite serious: "I sense something very bad ahead, we better not go further."
Johnson was a bit bewildered.
What is this nonsense?
Big Beard thought this young man was a bit nonsensical, and his right foot twitched, ready to lightly press the accelerator.
Fenna grabbed her husband’s right hand: "Johnson, wait a second!"
This mother also had a somewhat alarming feeling, so she chose to trust Yang Fan.
The boy followed up: "Dad, let’s wait a while and see."
He liked the story Yang Fan just told, so he was willing to believe Yang Fan’s words.
Johnson looked at the increasingly darkening sky, then at his wife, and nodded: "Alright, let’s wait ten minutes."
Big Beard immediately added: "We must reach Vig Town before 8 PM, it’s too dangerous to stay on the highway at night."
Yang Fan said: "Waiting ten minutes should be enough."
He immediately added: "Better turn off the car lights!"
Johnson glanced at the rearview mirror inside the car and reached out to turn a knob.
The headlights instantly turned off.
The boy curiously asked: "Mr. Jack, what exactly did you sense?"
Yang Fan shook his head: "Not sure, but it feels very dangerous."
The boy didn’t press further: "Okay."
Time ticked by minute by minute.
Six minutes quickly passed.
A strange noise suddenly came from ahead.
The sound was very muffled, akin to a large hammer beating a drum.
The ground also began to lightly tremble.
Everyone sitting in the car sensed the vibration from the front.
Big Beard’s face immediately changed.
From this noise, it was apparent that it must be a rather large creature.
Fenna instinctively grabbed her husband’s arm.
The girl couldn’t help shouting: "Oh my God!"
The boy, being braver, stuck his head out of the window and looked ahead.
Unfortunately, it was too dusky, and he saw nothing.
Yang Fan whispered: "Turn off the engine, and everyone stay quiet."
Johnson quickly complied.
The others tightly shut their mouths as well.
Yang Fan slightly twitched his nose, furrowing his brow, and muttered to himself: "Not this thing again."
The dull sounds continued continuously.
This big creature seemed to be lingering around the roadside.
The atmosphere inside the pickup truck tensed immediately.
No one dared to speak.
The family of four unconsciously lightened their breathing, afraid of breathing too heavily and alerting the big creature afar.
Another minute passed.
Lights flashed in the distance.
It was another car coming from the opposite direction.
The whole family changed complexion.
Yang Fan shook his head.
The expected happened.
The dull sounds suddenly became hurried.
It seemed the big creature noticed the lights and ran wildly in its direction.
Another muffled sound.
Sounded like a collision.
Spread far in the silent night sky.
The whole family shivered in unison.
A few seconds passed.
The "Thud thud" sound gradually faded.
This undoubtedly meant the big creature had left.
Yang Fan broke the silence: "I think we should be safe now."
The boy’s legs trembled: "Seems like someone died ahead."
Yang Fan nodded: "Yes."
Johnson swallowed hard and asked: "Mr. Jack, what the heck was that thing?"
Yang Fan didn’t answer; instead, he asked a question: "There should be a military base nearby, right?"
Johnson was a bit confused.
However, the girl responded: "Mr. Jack, there’s an air force base called Garnett nearby. I’ve heard about it from classmates."
Yang Fan sighed: "If I’m not mistaken, a terrifying thing escaped from the base."
Relying on his exquisitely mystical Soul Sensing Power, he distinctly sensed the supernatural aura from that thing, very similar to the Punisher and Executioner.
Moreover, the density of its aura was a tier higher than the latter.
Clearly, it’s an even more formidable creature.
Johnson involuntarily muttered "Fxxk": "Damn Federation, what secret experiment are they conducting now?"
Yang Fan urged: "Mr. Johnson, let’s leave here quickly."
Johnson responded: "Right, right, we really need to get going; who knows if the monster will come back."
The boy asked: "If people from the base saw us, would they silence us?"
Johnson got nervous: "Possibly!"
Big Beard hurriedly started the car and pressed the accelerator with his right foot.
The citizens of a country generally hold distrust towards the officials; this is indeed a lamentable situation.
But the Carmenia Federation has had many precedents, so the family’s distrust in the Federation is understandable.
Yang Fan gave a reminder: "Better not switch on the lights; it’s not completely dark yet, and we can still vaguely see the road."
Johnson nodded repeatedly: "I’ve driven this road more than once, even without lights, I know the way."
Accompanied by the engine’s rumble.
The pickup truck gradually accelerated.
They arrived at the accident site.
A ragged car was lying across the roadside, the hood completely caved in, and the roof was even ripped off.
The ground still had plenty of dark, indistinct patches; though unclear in the dusk, it’s not hard to guess it’s bloodstains.
Johnson glanced once and cursed: "Damn Federation!"
He dared not linger and drove past quickly.
Big Beard had already reconstructed the tragic scene in his mind.
The monster first violently smashed the hood, then tore off the roof, devouring the unfortunate driver.
The boy’s tone was filled with aftershock: "Luckily Mr. Jack warned us; otherwise, our family would have been doomed."
Fenna gratefully thanked: "Mr. Jack, thank you very much for saving our entire family’s lives."
Johnson nodded: "Exactly!"
Big Beard glanced at the rearview mirror again and said: "Mr. Jack, I must apologize, I didn’t quite believe your story earlier, but now I completely believe all your experiences in Yokoni City."
The girl joined in: "Mr. Jack, you’re just like an adventurer described in books." Follow current novels on ⓝovelFire.net
The family unanimously started addressing him respectfully as "Mr."
Yang Fan chuckled: "No need for formalities, I saved myself as well."
In truth, he felt a bit gleeful inside: "Seems like the monster went awry, Carmenians played so crazily, and now they’ve messed it up, eh?"
But he didn’t plan to act rashly.
After all, the Carmenia Federation was hiding a High Rank Warrior.
Though the opponent was injured, the power disparity was significant, and he wasn’t sure if he could win.
