They arrived at the Yangpu Bridge along the river.
Mofan was surprised when he saw the waves reflecting the moonlight. The water seemed to have receded a little, around half a meter high.
Half a meter was actually a huge part of the surface of the road. At least, the outline of the river was finally visible. Even the buildings and roads along the river seemed to have been rearranged.
However, the tide was unsteady, and the Magic City still used the river as the embankment and deployed troops to guard it. It was still an important safety line.
Mofan used his night vision to observe the situation from a high vantage point. He discovered many enormous creatures crawling under the buildings that were exposed above the water.
Many of them were covered in a layer of sand, as if they were wearing armor.
Many of them seemed to be occupying the low-rise buildings. Half of the buildings were in the water, while the other half was exposed to the air. It was the perfect place for the demon creatures that enjoyed sunbathing on the shore.
"Are they sea monsters?" Mofan asked worriedly.
Even though the creatures were in the distance, they were not far away from the cordon.
"Some little creatures, they are turning the flooded streets of Pudong into their territory. They are turning the sturdy buildings into their nests," Ling Ling said disdainfully.
As for those small demons, no one knew what the higher-ups were thinking. They just didn't go and clean them up. Instead, they just let them occupy the place and make their nest there.
"Lu Zhengxin, drive along the bridge and the overpass," Mofan said to Lu Zhengxin.
Lu Zhengxin's face turned pale!
They were driving past the cordon. Everyone knew that the Pudong area was occupied by some sea monsters. Wouldn't they be delivering Meituan takeout to someone if they drove past it?
Mofan did not waste any time. He picked up his phone and dialed Lu Kun's number.
Lu Zhengxin did not hesitate. He stepped on the accelerator and drove along the Yangpu Bridge.
Even though the people on duty tried to stop him, he easily passed by showing his identity as a Seven Star Hunter Master.
For the people on duty, a Hunter of his level was basically helping them clean up the nests of the sea monsters.
After crossing the bridge, there was an elevated road leading to Pudong Airport.
Duga was surprisingly smooth. Cars could drive directly over it. It was probably the military personnel who cleaned it up to better understand the situation in Pudong.
Along the way, Lu Zhengxin was a person who liked to race. It just so happened that there was not a single car on this road. There were only a few roadblocks placed on both sides of the road, which perfectly fulfilled his dream of speeding alone on the highway in the dark night!
Lu Zhengxin drove faster and faster until he reached 120. Mofan and Ling Ling were very calm. Even with the hood open, they were expressionless.
With this kind of speed, Mofan would probably be able to catch up even if he ran on his feet. He had no idea what Lu Zhengxin was boasting about.
"There's a fault ahead."
"What? I can't hear you!" Lu Zhengxin said.
"There's a fault in front. The viaduct has collapsed by three meters," Mofan said loudly.
"F * ck!!!" Lu Zhengxin cursed as he slammed on the brakes.
The sound of the brakes and the friction between the tires and the ground blended together, creating a harsh sound in the silent night.
However, Lu Zhengxin was simply too fast. It was too late to slam on the brakes.
"Blink!"
Mofan quickly cast the Space Spell.
Just as Lu Zhengxin's beloved car drilled into the fault, a silver curved surface appeared in front of him.
The car drove straight into the silver curve. The four-meter-tall bridge disappeared into thin air for a brief moment, before it eerily reappeared at the other end of the viaduct …
The fault was like a transparent tunnel, allowing the car to pass through it safely.
"Open your f * * king eyes!" Mofan cursed.
Lu Zhengxin finally moved his hands away from his eyes. He was overjoyed when he saw the viaduct on the other side instead of the sea.
"That's awesome, brother!" Lu Zhengxin exclaimed.
Mofan turned around and saw the fault of the viaduct.
He was confused. If the military was interested in clearing the viaduct that led to the sea, why didn't they fix the fault along the way?
Mofan did not pay too much attention to the car as it drove further away.
The closer they were to the airport, the higher the sea was. They could see that half of the office buildings were submerged.
The houses and shops that were below four floors were even worse off. They were all under the water.
"It should be here," Ling Ling said, pointing at a cluster of buildings.
Mofan glanced at the buildings and saw the buildings close to the airport. They were government buildings, dormitories, hotels, and offices.
The buildings were dark and soaked in the water. They would occasionally hear the sound of glass shattering and objects falling to the ground. It seemed like they were abandoned, but they were not completely empty.
According to the Cold Hunting King's description, this was where he fought the Red Demon.
Unfortunately, if the streets and roads were still there, there would be more clues left behind. Now that they had been washed by the seawater, it was hard to tell what else was left behind.
"Mofan, look at this building," Ling Ling suddenly pointed at the side of a building.
It was a dormitory building. The side of the building was painted with light blue paint. There were some long scratches on the side of the building if one looked closely.
"It looks like a claw, hehe," Lu Zhengxin joked.
Mofan took a closer look and said seriously, "It doesn't look like one. It's a claw mark with six toes."
Luckily, the dormitory building had not been renovated. Not many people paid attention to the scratches on the side, so they had remained until now.
"Does that mean the Red Demon might be a six-toed creature? At least when it shows its true form, "Ling Ling added.
"I'll have to find another one to test it out," Mofan looked around.
Ling Ling jumped to the top of the building. To ensure that the claw was not left behind by other sea monsters, she collected some of the tiny objects in the scratches.
Mofan went to look for other claw marks. If the other claws had six toes, they could determine the characteristics of the Red Demon.
"Why are you so worried about the number of toes?" Lu Zhengxin was curious as he followed Mofan.
"The number of toes or claws of every demon creature is fixed. It won't change no matter how they evolve, evolve, or transform. Therefore, as long as the number of toes of the creature is special, we can use it to determine its identity," Mofan explained.
Lu Zhengxin was a rookie Hunter, so he nodded as he was enlightened.
"Look, is that it?" Lu Zhengxin pointed at the pier of the overpass when he noticed something.
