Zhang Xiaoman had just spoken these words when the golden light in his eyes suddenly fluctuated, and several figures were rushing towards him in his field of view.
"Alien Species or Mutants?"
He got up and walked outside.
At that moment, Weiss also ran over.
"Star Lord, I just found a body in a room, it should be one of the security personnel, and I found this in his pocket,"
he said as he took out a cell phone.
"Good, keep it for now, and hand it over to the Canglan Department afterward so they can crack the password and see if they can find any useful information,"
Zhang Xiaoman made arrangements, yet his gaze remained fixed on the direction from which the figures were coming.
It seemed like Weiss noticed something too and turned his head to follow his gaze, but he found nothing.
"Star Lord, could it be...?"
Zhang Xiaoman nodded, indicating for him to stand behind him.
"There are fifteen in total, hmm... all heading our way, probably targeting this stone, but it’s not ruled out that they found us through some special means,"
Upon hearing there were fifteen, Weiss immediately tensed up.
However, when he looked up and saw the figure standing in front of him, he couldn’t help but be reassured again.
After all, this was the leader of the organization. Was there any better support than the one in front of him? There was absolutely no need for him to worry as long as he followed behind.
With this thought, he was reassured.
In the short span of those few sentences, the fifteen monsters had already approached them closely.
The rustling sound came from the woods, followed by a roar, and a group of giant wolf-like creatures, each at least two meters tall, charged out.
They were all rotting, with crimson eyes and disgusting tentacles emerging all over their bodies, and some even had more than one head. Now, they all greedily fixed their eyes on the two people in the arena.
Even though he knew the Star Lord was there, Weiss couldn’t help but swallow hard after seeing this scene.
The number and appearance of these monsters brought tremendous pressure.
Especially since they were all Extraordinary Creatures possessing Dark Energy. Although in Zhang Xiaoman’s view their energy was very weak, in the eyes of a regular person like Weiss, the undisguised threat from another level of life made his heart feel like it was nearly stopping.
A chirp sounded, and Jiu Jiu flew directly above Weiss’s head.
After a burst of light flickered, a round shadow suddenly enveloped him, clearly a Shield.
This Shield was light blue, translucent, and did not affect the vision of the person it protected in the slightest.
In addition, it even had two large fox ears on top, which looked rather cute.
Zhang Xiaoman, encountering these monsters for the first time, was uncertain of their strength. To be cautious, he had Jiu Jiu deploy the Shield to protect Weiss in case of any mishaps.
Clearly, these guys must have all escaped from this laboratory.
Apparently, they had been altered Mutant Beasts, then transformed into Mutants upon contact with the black stone.
"Transformed from Mutant Beasts into Mutants? Interesting..."
Zhang Xiaoman slowly raised his right hand, palm facing upward in front of his eyes, as if he were holding an invisible Magic Treasure.
Simultaneously, the wolf pack moved as well.
The leader, a massive wolf with two heads, howled to the sky, and all the monsters, as if receiving a command, set off at once, their momentum terrifying.
Behind him, Weiss’s fists clenched tightly, his palms full of sweat.
Zhang Xiaoman gently exhaled, his raised right hand suddenly swung down, pressing hard with his palm facing downward.
By then, those giant wolves were less than fifty meters away from them, and some that were closer had even leaped into the air, intending to pounce directly on them.
But just then, as Zhang Xiaoman’s right hand swung down, the air around them wildly fluctuated, and a visible distortion occurred right in front of them.
The next moment, an intense booming sound erupted.
The monsters, as if hit by an invisible mountain, collapsed on the spot, and those that had leaped high simply vanished into thin air, crashing into the ground.
A cloud of dust spread immediately after, and the ground trembled along with it.
Weiss only saw a blur before him, the giant wolves that had been charging suddenly disappeared, followed by a cloud of dust.
"What, what happened...?"
A puzzled Weiss admitted he had no idea what had just happened.
The wolf pack that had been charging ferociously towards them just moments ago had vanished in an instant.
"Hmm... though there were some Dark Energy Fluctuations, they were still too weak..."
What Zhang Xiaoman had used, naturally, was his most familiar Dark Energy Shock.
But unlike his usual precise control, this time he had aimed for power, releasing a full-blast Dark Energy Shock stored within the Time Imprint, instantly annihilating these Mutants.
He looked at the scene before him and lightly waved his hand, releasing a faint Shocking Power to scatter the approaching dust.
Suddenly, the scene in the arena became visible before them.
The ground, at some unknown time, had developed a huge depression.
