The mist grew thicker and soon shrouded the Skyscraping Snake completely.
The mist formed the shape of a snake, extending from the ground to the top of the clouds. It did not dissipate even after a long time.
As the wind from West Lake blew at the bustling area, the thick mist in the shape of a snake finally dissipated …
The mist slowly dissipated, but the Skyscraping Snake's figure was nowhere to be seen.
As a matter of fact, the snake had already left when the mist first appeared. However, the people believed it was still there, as the streets would be razed to the ground in an instant if the Skyscraping Snake moved.
However, it had disappeared just like that. It did not destroy a single building, nor did it utter a single roar. Apart from a strange mist that gradually dissipated between the bank building and the five-star hotel, nothing was left behind … oh, no, nothing was left behind. It had left a lingering fear looming over the bustling area of Hangzhou.
… …
Inside the restaurant, Qin Nan's black shirt was completely soaked.
After confirming that the towering snake had disappeared, he could feel his legs turning weak.
As a matter of fact, he would rather believe that he was having a nightmare. Only in a nightmare would such an impossible scene happen!
However, he had no idea how to explain the fear that was so real that he was soaked in cold sweat.
"Brother … Mo Fan." Xinxia opened her eyes and saw Mo Fan's back. His wet shirt was sticking to his back.
Mo Fan stood there. The more air he took, the more his body trembled in fear.
Hearing Xinxia calling his name, Mo Fan pretended to be calm and turned around. He wore a stiff smile and said, "It's … it's fine."
"Did it disappear?" Xinxia asked with a lingering fear.
"I think so."
"Brother Mo Fan, do you know what it is?" Xinxia asked in a soft voice.
Mo Fan shook his head. He slowly turned on his phone and went online …
As he thought, the news soon spread across the internet. The headlines of the Skyscraping Snake's Shocking Appearance in Hangzhou had thoroughly covered the entire country's media!
"The government will explain … no matter what, let's … let's leave this place first," Mo Fan said to Xinxia.
"Okay." Xinxia nodded.
…
Yan 'an Road, which had been bustling with life not long ago, was now in chaos. Screams, car horns, and cries …
The people were still running. Who knew if the snake would appear again? They had to leave this place of nightmare as soon as possible.
Mofan didn't care about the rules. He summoned the Swift Star Wolf and flew away.
He didn't want to say a word, nor did he want to pay attention to the nonsense on the Internet. He just wanted to take Xinxia to a place that he felt was absolutely safe.
Mofan didn't know what would happen next. He completely lost his curiosity in the lingering fear.
I only hope that thing doesn't appear in front of me again. Never!
…
"People of Hangzhou, don't panic. It's just a newly invented Beast Shadow Formation. The Skyscraping Snake isn't real. It's just an illusion. It's the reason why it showed up on the streets without any warning, and why it suddenly disappeared. If it was a real demon creature, it would have done a great deal of damage by now! "
In less than an hour, the government announced the explanation of the shocking incident.
"So it's just an illusion. It's made of the mist, but it looks so real."
"Yeah, and its eyes, they were like spotlights. Even though I was over ten streets away, I still felt like the creature was right in front of me."
"There's no way it's an illusion. The government is trying to hide something. I was in the hotel when it happened. I could clearly see the head of the Skyscraping Snake from where I was standing. There's no way it's some kind of illusion spell made of the Shadow Element!"
Within a day, the whole country was paying attention to the shocking incident. Many people who were present at the scene even claimed that the government was trying to hide something.
However, whenever a huge incident happened, it would only cause a huge uproar for a while. If there was no further news or sudden change, the news would slowly fade away.
The next day, the netizens were still providing evidence to prove the existence of the demon creature. They were asking the government to give them an explanation. An explanation.
On the third day, many people were more inclined to believe the government. No matter how real the Skyscraping Snake was, and how terrifying the mist was, it would always appear and disappear just like the mist.
Demon creatures were savage creatures. If such a huge snake really appeared, the whole Yan 'an Road would have been turned into ruins by now. It was an undeniable fact.
A week later, the number of people who were still discussing the incident gradually decreased. Everyone's attention was shifted to the incident of different kinds of sea beasts appearing along the coastline …
…
Mofan stayed in Hangzhou for a week.
After an entire week, the haze in his heart gradually showed signs of dissipating.
An illusion?
Some kind of Shadow Element formation?
As a Magician who had survived in the wild for a long time, Mofan could guarantee with everything he had as a man that it was not an illusion!
The Skyscraping Snake was real!
Mofan had a terrifying feeling that it would show up again!
For the past few days, Mofan had been staying in his rented apartment. He was unable to focus on his cultivation for the past few days. Every time he closed his eyes, his mind would be filled with the face of the enormous snake. Its gaze was cold and extremely dangerous!
What exactly was it?
No government in this world would hide the truth about demon creatures, but why would the government of Hangzhou City claim that the Skyscraping Snake was an illusion?
Such a huge snake, how did it suddenly appear on the street filled with skyscrapers, and how did it disappear without making any noise …
Also, what level was the creature!?
It was definitely not a Commander-level creature.
Mofan had seen many Commander-level creatures, but he had never been so shocked by one before.
Initially, Mofan had no intention of having anything to do with the snake. However, for the past few days, he realized that he was unable to focus on his cultivation under the influence of the snake. He would feel uneasy if the fear and doubts in his heart were not resolved.
"It seems like I'll have to ask someone if I want to find out the truth."
Mofan made up his mind. He had to at least find out what the Skyscraping Snake was, and what it had done to him, to make him feel so terrified whenever he closed his eyes.
"Miss Tangyue, are you free? I'm in Hangzhou. "Mofan asked.
"Why aren't you resting at the military headquarters? What are you doing here?" Tangyue said with a hint of blame.
"I've recovered. Well, I've been in Hangzhou since a week ago …" said Mofan.
Tangyue was startled, before she said in a deep voice, "You saw it?"
"Yeah."
"Come to my place."
"I'm a little scared of the West Lake area now."
