Sheyan shook his head with a wry smile, but he still walked in the middle of the group. He had no intention of leaving the group. After walking for less than 50 or 60 meters, they found themselves on dry land. This place seemed to be a highland in the middle of the swamp, forming an island with a radius of one square kilometer.
After landing on the island, everyone was very careful, because they knew that they should be close to their target. The plants on the island did not seem to be growing well, so they could not block their vision.
In the middle of the island, there was an open space about the size of a school field. On the open space, it should be because it was often trampled. Withered plants mixed with new plants that were struggling to grow on the ground. The tenacity of swamp plants could be seen at a glance.
Ramtas' nostrils flared as if it was about to howl, but was forcibly stopped by Sheyan with his mind. Ronnie soon sent out a signal. He shot out a fluorescent bomb that floated more than 10 meters in the air. They immediately saw two people sitting back to back in the middle of the open space. Their faces were dull and numb. They were wearing tattered military camouflage uniforms and were gasping for breath. Next to them were two tattered backpacks.
After seeing the two living people, everyone's spirits were lifted, but at that moment, Aldaris suddenly whispered with uncontrollable excitement.
"Pi ore?"
These two words immediately set everyone's hearts aflame. The example of Ronnie taking the Pi ore for himself after finding it first was still vivid in their minds. Several people immediately rushed forward, fearing that they would be left behind. However, there were also some people who rushed towards the hostages. Obviously, these people were more far-sighted. The sooner they knew the whereabouts of the lode, the sooner they could get there.
Sheyan sighed slightly, then glanced at Aldaris with admiration in his eyes. Aldaris shrugged and smiled. Not everyone rushed forward. Pokan, Dardanian and the sniper William all remained calm.
The short distance of a few dozen meters was covered in the blink of an eye. When the group of people rushed to the two people, they suddenly felt their legs go soft. Then, an area with a radius of 200 or 300 square meters collapsed with a loud bang!!!
Although the depth of the collapse was only five to six meters, the bottom was an incomparably damp puddle, similar to the mud of a quagmire, reaching up to his waist! Immediately after, a rumbling sound came from the ground above the island, and a large number of strange creatures drilled out from the damp soil!
These creatures were not very tall, only about one meter or so. At first glance, they looked like octopuses that walked upright with their tentacles stretched out, but upon closer inspection, there was still a big difference.
First of all, these creatures were wrapped in a layer of thick muscles. Their outlines were very clear, especially the tentacles used to support their bodies. They were thick and strong, and their surface was covered with a layer of brown skin. When they ran, even the muscles inside could be seen trembling. Moreover, their feet were webbed, so their speed was quite agile. Even if they entered the swamp, they would not be affected too much.
They had ferocious mouths that occupied almost half of their heads. When they opened their mouths, sharp yellow teeth could be seen inside. The way they chewed was not by cutting and chewing, but by grinding their teeth left and right. When they ate, they would bare their teeth and shake their teeth constantly, causing the food residue to fall off. It was extremely disgusting.
When they were irritable or angry, they would also grind their teeth and make a creaking sound. For example, what Party Ace could hear right now was a creaking sound that could be heard all over the mountains.
Above the mouths of these creatures was a huge yellow eye. In this eye, there were many clear concentric circles. The more concentric circles there were, the stronger the creature was. Their pupils were vertical pupils similar to those of dragons, which meant that they had a diluted dragon bloodline in their bodies.
When these creatures ran, there were a few small braids flying behind their heads. Upon closer inspection, those small braids were flesh-red tentacles, and at the ends of the tentacles were closed eyeballs.
In the face of such a dilemma, although Party Ace was already prepared, he still could not help but narrow his eyes. He immediately checked the information of these monsters.
[Violent Beast: Dangerous, Wanted (This beast has caused the deaths of more than 10,000 colonists on many planets, so it is wanted by the Interstellar Nightmare Realm Security Committee. No wildlife protection regulations apply to this beast race. Any Interstellar Resident has the right to hunt and kill this creature and obtain rewards)]
[HP: Medium]
[Defence: Medium] (If this creature does not have their ability, it can be said to be very vulnerable)]
[Speed: 3 m/s]
[Attack: Weak, but may have a biological ability.]
[Biological Characteristics: Its biological ability has a strong resistance to any long-range physical attack.]
[Ordinary Violent Beast] [Attributes: Strength 33, Agility 27, Physique 10, Intelligence 70, Spirit 70, Charm 10, Perceptive Sense 25]
[Living Environment: Violent Beasts can evolve slightly to adapt to their environment. They may appear in any environment except the desert or the Gobi Desert where there is an extreme lack of water.]
[Organisation: Large group ~ small batch (200-500 Violent Beasts)]
[Value: As long as you kill a Violent Beast, you can obtain a reward from the Empire. As proof, you have to cut off one of its tentacles and compound eyes. Of course, because Violent Beasts have a meager high-level bloodline, very rare crystal cores may appear in the brains of some Violent Beasts. These cores can add a considerable amount to your account.]
[Biological Ability: (Requires payment to read)]
[Possible Spoils of War: This creature, which seems to be evolving at any moment, is highly intelligent. You may find relics of its former victims in its nest.]
[Description: This is an incomprehensible creature. They are chaotic and evil, and it seems that all living creatures are their enemies. If you are confused by their size, death will not be far away. The developed brains of these creatures give them a variety of powerful abilities. According to the latest research, their intelligence in hunting is not inferior to that of humans, and this is an innate cunning instinct.]
[Do you want to pay 10000 utility points to access the database immediately to obtain information on its biological ability?] [Yes/No]
***
At this critical moment of life and death, of course, Sheyan would not be stingy with the 10,000 utility points. He immediately received a series of information.
[The Violent Beasts have a variety of abilities. Fortunately, each Violent Beast can only master two abilities.]
[Their common racial ability is' Light Distortion '. To put it simply, the Violent Beast you see does not stay where your eyes tell you it is. The deviation is probably no more than 40 centimeters. This makes it necessary to calculate the correction value when aiming at them. However, each Violent Beast can adjust the amplitude of the light distortion on its own, so it is impossible to accurately determine whether they are in front, behind, or to the left or right.]
[Their individual abilities are released through the tentacles and compound eyes growing behind their heads. The range of release is about 15 feet (5 meters). Under normal circumstances, each Violent Beast can only master one individual ability. Individual abilities include Petrification, Enfeeblement, Disease, Neurotoxin, and Paralytic Toxin.]
[Possible abilities of high-ranking Violent Beasts: Mass Poison Attack, Mass Enfeeblement, Earthquake, Water Control, Soil Control, Fire Control, and Thunder Release.]
[The latest information shows that some powerful Violent Beasts have mastered the psychic ability. On the 8th of June, 1715, the Violent Beasts were released by the rebel army on Tarit Centauri and massacred the local Seventh Colony. When the rebel army was stationed there, a Violent Beast leader communicated with a Lieutenant Colonel using psychic waves and threatened him with 376 hostages. In the end, the Violent Beast leader successfully escaped.]

Pokan was currently shouting for protection. As a topographical modeller, he intended to use his ability to lift his allies who had fallen into the trap and rescue them. He had already started chanting the incantation loudly and waving his wand to cast his spell.
In the dark night, specks of yellow light could be clearly seen emanating from Pokan's body. The yellow light happily flowed into the ground. The swamp in front of him began to shake, then slowly floated up with a deep roar.
But at that moment, the hair-raising grinding sound came from underground again. Then, something amazing happened. Three balls of yellow light emerged from the ground and were actually able to fight against Pokan! Although the three yellow lights were obviously much weaker, the two sides were still in a stalemate. At the very least, Pokan would not be able to change the terrain in a short time.
Sheyan skimmed through the series of introductions as fast as he could, but when he saw that the total number of Violent Beasts was between 200 and 500 in just three seconds, he immediately made up his mind to leave.
When he found that Pokan's' Topographical Lift 'was resisted by the high-ranking Violent Beasts' abilities, he did not hesitate to run back the way he came. But before he left, Sheyan threw a curse-mix at Pokan. A thick smoke enveloped him and slowed down all hostile creatures that entered the smoke. This was the last thing Sheyan did for the team.
