Chapter 63: The Hunt In The Forest Beneath The Night Sky (2/2)

Brown Thorn looked once at the obedient Theresa who was doing nothing at all before turning to his pals.

“We’ve found him. But according to Eagle Thorn, he disappeared after he had descended from his hoverboard.”

“Disappeared?”

“We can’t find him. We can’t even detect his hoverboard. It was like he had never appeared. But Eagle Thorn most definitely saw him riding over to the forest on a hoverboard.” Brown Thorn sounded very doubtful as well.

Tiger Thorn, the person who had spoken up earlier, let out a ferocious smile, “This young master has some abilities of his own. Otherwise, Gentle Thorn and the others would not have failed either.”

The Gentle Thorn Tiger Thorn had mentioned was the woman that had disguised herself as a nurse during the previous bio-station mission.

“What do we do now?” Brown Thorn asked.

“Tell Eagle Thorn and the rest to keep their eyes open and not screw up when they least expect it. Otherwise, Gentle Thorn’s fate will be their final lesson. This is our last chance.” At the end of his words, Tiger Thorn’s voice was already emanating with cold murder.

Black Thorn’s leaders were watched too tightly by all sides, which was why they hadn’t joined them on Planet Seven Lights. This operation was led by Tiger Thorn and supported by Brown Thorn.

Although the school zone and residential zone had gone dark for quite some time now, this forest zone had just entered nighttime not too long ago (T/N: Remember, this place’s a planet).

After running into the forest, Cillin did not hurry his way to seek out his target. Instead he slipped quietly between the trees looking for something. Cillin discovered what he was looking for at a lust, tall tree.

There was a hollow in the tree trunk, and there were many little things that were flying back and forth beside it. They were a kind of flying ant that were different from termites. They were the primitive inhabitants of Planet Seven Lights. Its body were only a few millimeters long, and even the big ones did not grow over a centimeter. Its adult form gave it a pair of wings that was slightly longer than its body. Its wings would not fall off, and it also had a developed upper jaw. It disliked light and consumed just about anything. These insects were what Cillin was looking for.

He sprayed an odorless solution into the hollow and its surroundings. The solution would form a thin crystalline film on the surface of the flying ants’ bodies. Then they would slowly change from solid to gas over time. These sublimed gas had no effect on the flying ants, but a human body was different. After a human body had inhaled the gas, they would exhale a different kind of gas that would cause these little fellows to become excited, just like how the human body inhaled oxygen and exhaled carbon dioxide. Again, the person who breathed it in would not feel any discomfort whatsoever, but they would unknowingly become these little fellows’ target.

Other than the flying ant nest he had found inside the tree hollow, Cillin seeked out a couple more nests and dealt with them the same way.

This was the edge of the forest, and these little fellows would fly everywhere at night in search for food. Moreover, the night breeze spread the odor they’re carrying deeper into the forest. Night had just begun at the forest, and these little fellows had a long night of work ahead of them.

Cillin had paid special attention to these flying ants when he was surveying the area on his first day arriving at Seven Lights. The forest was the best place to resolve grudges in secrecy and an easy place to lose satellite monitoring as well. There were many flying ants in the forest, and Cillin had researched them a long time ago. He had designed a few types of solutions according to their bio parameters.

Not even Mo Heng knew that Cillin had assembled a drug synthesizer on his own. Otherwise he would have definitely run out to brag about it. This was because the demand for precision to assemble a drug synthesizer was higher than the norm. The assembly of a drug synthesizer normally took three or more people to complete.

The fact was this was hardly the first solution Cillin had synthesized for his own use. He had made them during his leisure for emergencies, and he never fought a battle he did not prepare for. These synthesized drugs were all stored inside Genya’s coiled leaf patterned ring.

Cillin did not know how many people were hiding in this forest, but according to the information he obtained from Coy Behind The Smile, there was definitely more than 10 at least. These people were cruel and decisive, and most importantly they had hid themselves very well. Infrared scan would not find them, and without external support, Cillin’s predicament would become a lot more difficult. A single misstep would end his life.

However, most of the time, those that could help us were not necessarily human.

Cillin watched the little fellows flying far, far away before darting into the forest.

The hunt has begun.
