938 Plight 2 (2/2)
According to the data records, Level Two Predators could produce a Willpower Field-liked Mind Force, which could produce a substantial effect. This was the scene that everyone saw at that time. Caster was crushed by an invisible force and died without leaving a complete corpse behind.
”Now that there is Energy Machine Imprint and most of the materials are available, the only thing that is lacking is the Biochemical Pool...” Garen lifted up his head and looked at the gray-blue sky.
This was the fifteenth time he had looked to the sky today.
This time, the margin of the endless sky finally did not disappoint him. A blue dot was flying at high speed toward this side. Its outline looked like a drone.
Garen's face finally showed a smile. If it came any later, he probably would have to consider expanding one Soul Seed to reincarnate...
He quickly jumped out of the pit and ran to look for East Perrin to have her tell everyone not to shoot down the drone in the sky.
At this moment, as soon he ran out from the rear of the city, he realized that something was amiss.
There was no one in the houses of the city. Everyone seemed to be concentrated at the front and vague screams could be heard from that side.
From far, East Perrin saw Garen ran out.
”Be careful! There are Predators that have sneaked in! They are invisible!” She yelled.
Invisible Predators!!
Garen was surprised. This was a rare species among the Predators! How could there be any here?
He suddenly felt a deep chill coming behind him.
He spun around, gave a sidekick, and released cold air!
Three fluent and continuous moves emerged instantly.
Garen felt as is he had kicked something hard. With a loud boom, a large amount of cold air quickly covered the entire body of that object which he had kicked. The hoarfrost completely revealed its form.
This humanoid creature was kicked right in the head. It stumbled out a few steps, drowsily fell to the ground, and was swamped by the subsequent white air, directly freezing into a large piece of ice.
Garen looked at his trousers. There was blood on it. With his physical fitness, he was actually at a disadvantage in the direct confrontation just now. Moreover, he felt some pain in his bones where there were probably some fractures.
”This is the Invisible Predator?”
He took a close look at this thing. It had the same shape of a human but without hands. There were two stout, octopus-like tentacles at that place of its arms.
East Perrin also brought some people as she rushed over here. When she saw the ice on the ground, she sucked in a breath of cold air.
”This is the guy who had killed eight of my brothers and sisters!” She raised her hand and shot the ice to pieces.
Krak!
The whole piece of ice shattered into glass-like pieces.
Garen glanced behind East Perrin. There were only more than a dozen people left. It seemed that these were the remaining manpower of the entire city. There were also a few children and women who were covered in blood.
”What about the rest?”
”All dead...” East Perrin replied in a low voice. There was also blood on her face and it was unclear whether it was hers or someone else's.
”We have no idea when the Invisible Predator sneaked in. When we realized it, it had already killed half of the logistics personnel. It also killed a few men who had gone over to help,” the old man Malone said palely.
At this time, the drone flew down from the sky and descended towards Garen.
Someone raised their gun and aimed it at the drone out of conditioned reflex.
”Don't shoot!” Garen quickly shouted.
This made everyone loosen up a little. They watched Garen reach out his hands to grab the small drone and took down a small fist-sized black box from it.
”Take care,” he whispered the cipher to the black box.
Pap. The box opened automatically. The cover rose slowly, revealing a round thing wrapped in white silk.
Garen took out this thing and left the rest of it with East Perrin.
”This stuff can be used as an investigating drone.”
”What is that?!” East Perrin looked at the ball in his hand.
”This is hope!”
Garen answered without looking back and hurriedly ran towards the rear of the city.
Following the path between the houses in the city, he went straight back to the side of the pit. Garen lifted the material basin that he managed and walked into a large, empty stone house on the right.
This stone house just so happened to have a basement. It was the residence left by a man who had died in battle. He had no wife and children, so this place was assigned to Garen as a laboratory house.
Uncovering the fist-size thing in his hand, it was a black stone.
Garen gripped the stone with both of his hands and applied force to both sides of it.
Krak!
The stone was divided into two in a crisp sound and a piece of pale yellow soft meat fell out. It was caught by Garen.
”This is it! Mila Cells, Stoneheart Flesh... The main part of the Biochemical Pool!!” Garen knew that in the present plight, there finally was hope...
