"This doesn't seem like Tide Rush. It's too purposeful. It seems like there really is something attracting them, triggering their greed and restless emotions."
Though Meng Chong had a physical body, the Bloodflame Order was a professional among professionals when it came to sensing and utilizing the extreme emotions of living creatures. Their words held great authority.
Of course, in Meng Chong's mind, the greatest authority was right by his side.
His gaze naturally turned to Luo Nan. Zhang Yingying saw this and suddenly came to a realization.
"Luo Nan, what the hell are you doing now!"
Luo Nan spread his hands. He didn't say anything, but he suddenly tilted his head. "Do you guys hear something?"
"Don't change the subject. Do you have ears?"
"Oh, I was wrong. It's an oscillating psychic wave. It seems to be... a cry for help? "
"A cry for help? Who? Is there a ship in distress nearby? "Zhang Yingying really did communicate with the cockpit as she spoke. She turned around and spread her hands at Luo Nan.
"I already said it's a psychic wave. It's not an electric wave."
"How far can a psychic wave travel... Forget it. Pretend I didn't say anything."
Zhang Yingying had no way of refuting a master of mental senses who had redefined the structure of the mental domain. She didn't want to pester endlessly, so she could only discuss the matter as it stood. "Which location? There are only so many people in the inner world. Maybe they know each other. I'll help them if I can. "
Luo Nan pointed at the deck.
"A ship? An ocean yacht murder case? " The guys in the group never expected something like this to happen. Their excitement rose to their heads, and their imaginations couldn't be shut.
Zhang Yingying couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Hey, in order to go out to sea with Yuan Luo, we set out in light gear. There are only a few people on the yacht. Other than the front deck, they're in the cockpit. When we get back, we even have to fish and cook dinner on the spot. Murder... Murder my ass."
Bamboo Pole was more reliable. "You mean under the ship... in the ocean?"
Cat Eyes, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Maybe they're already in the belly of a big fish."
Needless to say, it wasn't impossible.
Not to mention the undulating sea surface that had a height difference of over ten meters, even if the surrounding sea was densely packed with marine life, only ten to twenty percent of them were Mutants. It would be a fatal danger if one were to fall inside.
Zhang Yingying knew her own limits. Just by looking at the situation, she knew that if she fell down, she could only scream for help. She saw that Luo Nan's mind was a bit erratic. Perhaps he was still trying to capture the exact source of the psychic wave, but she was not surprised. She turned her gaze to look at Meng Chong.
"Lao Meng?"
Zhang Yingying's deliberate closeness wasn't the main point. The main point was her intimate relationship with Luo Nan. So, Meng Chong bowed slightly and was very polite.
"The Qi dynamic in the sea is chaotic, and extreme emotions are mixed together. I can't control the details better than you, so I really didn't sense it. However, if there really was such a spiritual wave, being able to keep up with the high-speed cruise ship and transmit it in such a noisy environment, it must have a certain level of strength and should also have an outstanding disguise method.
"If that's the case, I could've just taken advantage of the chaos to escape. Yet, I ended up in a situation where I had to ask for help. It's either that I ran out of energy and couldn't maintain my disguise for a long time, or that I've been locked onto by someone stronger.
"If it's the former, the other party should do their best to approach the yacht and attract our attention. If it's the latter, I can basically confirm that this is a conflict on the B-rank level. There are a few B-rank Mutants in the surroundings, but there aren't many. There are even fewer areas of conflict."
Meng Chong's way of thinking was quite rigorous, but there were still a few B-rank Mutants...
Zhang Yingying rolled her eyes again.
But in this large ecosystem of the sea,
Meng Chong's description was completely correct. This was especially true around Ti City, the most important hunting ground for marine Mutants in the world.
So, was there a conclusion?
Zhang Yingying looked at Luo Nan once more, but Luo Nan still didn't speak. Not only that, but his gaze was oddly cast towards the sky. It really was confusing.
On the contrary, Meng Chong hesitated for a few seconds before his gaze turned to a certain location on the starboard side of the front deck.
Zhang Yingying was very quick-witted. Her gaze and the camera followed at the same time. She showed great mercy and gave her friends in Xia City a live broadcast.
The timing was just right.
Only a second or two passed before a dark green shadow suddenly appeared on the side of the ship. It leaped out at a speed far exceeding that of most marine life forms. Under the dusky sky and sea, its body seemed to have been smeared with a layer of fluorescent substance. It was extremely conspicuous.
However, everyone could more or less see that this was a natural radiation phenomenon when its spiritual power was fully unleashed. It clearly couldn't hide any longer and fled with all its might.
What was that?
The fluorescent light reflected a silhouette. It was malevolent and ugly to the point of stupefaction. It was like an extremely large spider covered in muscles. It stuck close to the surface of the sea and floated past with a whooshing sound.
"A water spider?"
"Speaking of which, I saw a bull's head. Was it an illusion?"
With the current transmission speed of the satellite network, a relatively smooth image could still be seen. But once it entered the high speed range, it would be so blurry that even one's own mother wouldn't be able to recognize it.
Before the group of people in the group could struggle out of the low quality image, a long gray shadow leaped out. The surging water around its body was like a high speed water blade. It hummed and hissed, beheading countless shoals of fish in its path. A few muffled sounds of metal rubbing against metal could be heard in the middle.
"Ah, my boat!" Zhang Yingying's cry of surprise was only a foil. Most people's attention was still on the chase.
The muscular spider in front looked huge, but its lightness was incredible. It moved on the undulating waves of the sea as if it was walking on flat ground. It was extremely agile, as if it could fly at any time.
As for the one chasing behind, it looked like a conger eel or a sea snake. It looked fierce and violent, like a long spear or a giant axe. With a single movement, it could cut apart all living things in its path. It had an extremely strong explosive power and was definitely faster than the former. It was just that its agility was slightly inferior, which was why the "muscular spider" in front of it had repeatedly escaped.
Perhaps that was why the "muscular spider" did not dare to go too far. It used the yacht as cover and circled on the surface of the sea.
"It really is a B-class." Zhang Yingying was a little jealous.
Generally speaking, the B-class spiritual side was easier to distinguish. It was based on whether one's consciousness could penetrate into the abyss and interfere with it. The standard for physical side was a little more vague, but "turning nothingness into reality" was definitely a hard bar.
To be able to borrow power from relatively insubstantial objects such as seawater and the atmosphere, even with the addition of the racial ability, it was not too far off.
After watching for a long time, everyone had absorbed enough images and began to distinguish some things.
"F * ck, a battleship slicing blade!"
"Which one … the one behind?"
"Obviously."
Bamboo Pole was still at the level of an intelligence expert. In a few seconds, he had sent the information and relevant images to the group.
"Be careful, this kind of mutated blade eel is also a stubborn child. Its entire body is harder than gold and iron. Cutting the hull of a ship at high speed and causing a shipwreck is a common occurrence. Moreover, it is used to 'non-hunting killing', so there is no reason for it to slash people."
"If you could send this ten seconds earlier, I would be very grateful to you." Zhang Yingying blew hard on her forehead to dispel the annoyance in her heart.
The problem was that the hair in front of her forehead was already wet and could not be blown up. It was even more annoying to have it lying on her forehead.
"The starboard hull is damaged. There is no leakage right now, but it will be hard to say in a few minutes … … Also, what is that deformed thing in front of us!? "
Right now, everyone knew that it was not a spider and that the "bull head" was not an illusion. That fellow really did grow half a bull's body. Its muscles were knotted, and its head had a short horn, a long face, a thick nose, and a large mouth. It was indeed an enormous bull head.
However, the area where the bull body and the spider body were connected swelled and deformed. It began to rapidly transform into the image of a spider, and the dark green fluorescence it emitted came from this area. Eight hairy claws extended out from the area where the body was connected. The tips of the claws were faintly discernible, looking extremely tough and sharp.
Zhang Yingying frowned as she evaluated: "This body structure is a bit like a Human-Faced Arachnid … … If that thing had a body. Could it be called a Cow-Faced Arachnid? "
"This is a bull demon, the traditional demon form of Ban City." The one who responded to her was actually Luo Nan, who was destined to have no fate with Erudite.
Zhang Yingying was truly shocked: "How did you know … … You've seen it in Ban City?"
"Mm, you could say that."
Luo Nan had indeed seen a portion of the roughly processed bull demon skeleton before … … The processing factory of the Great Ze Order was most proficient in processing this kind of Mutant material. The perfect skeleton that Luo Nan's main body needed to display its greatest combat strength was made from this material.
"You really are different now that you have experience." It was hard to tell whether Zhang Yingying's words were praise or sarcasm. "Oh right. Didn't you just say that someone was crying for help? How come a bull demon popped out in the end? Where's the person? "
Luo Nan raised his chin and once again stamped the scene of the chase, which had already circled to the rear half of the yacht.
Actually, there was no need for confirmation. Many people, including Zhang Yingying, had already reacted. "You're joking right? That muscular spider, huh, bull demon?"
"Yeah, it's the one crying for help. It's been crying for help all this time. It seems to have recognized Her Majesty Empress Wu. You guys sense it carefully … …"
"You're getting more and more bizarre the more you talk."
Zhang Yingying looked at Meng Chong. Meng Chong smiled wryly and shook his head. "The mental domain is too chaotic. I'm not good at this."
Luo Nan felt that the situation was very clear. "This bull demon is very smart. It has some ability to communicate with people. It discovered that it was being chased and that its chances of escaping were slim. It simply fired psychic waves to tangle with us …. Let's hope that Her Majesty Empress Wu can save its life."
"The chain of logic is quite complete." Zhang Yingying could only give this evaluation.
It must be said that the level of intelligence of high-level Mutants had always been the focus of research in the Wilderness. Ever since the Era of Mutants, there were hundreds of cases of Mutants and humans realizing the communication of consciousness. Be it true or false, these cases occurred every year.
Zhang Yingying would not easily refute or deny a person of authority like Luo Nan. She just wanted to figure things out.
"You're saying that it went looking for the boss, and then you monitored it?"
"Something like that."
"The boss didn't respond to it?"
"Not at the moment …. It should be."
"Indeed." Zhang Yingying looked at the exhausted appearance of the bull demon. If Her Majesty Empress Wu allowed it, then it wouldn't be like this. "The boss didn't respond to it. Could it be that he thinks it's too ugly?"
"He probably doesn't want to get involved in trouble."
Zhang Yingying pursed her lips. "I feel that letting it go would be a big problem. If we let that Battleship Slicing Blade make a few more rounds, then it'll be our turn to send a distress signal … … How far away is Ti City? It's the standard way to throw our face into the Pacific Ocean."
Luo Nan grunted. "That proves that Her Majesty Empress Wu feels that interfering would be a big problem."
