Thud thud thud…

The sound of running.

“Quick! Follow that dark silhouette… Once you find an opportunity, shoot immediately.”

Manuel yelled.

With their strong stamina, despite the fact that they were carrying rocket launchers, they were still able to move like the wind.

The five mercenaries behind him quickly caught up.

They locked onto the dark silhouette. As they ran, they did not even blink, as if afraid that they would lose their target in the blink of an eye.

Hu hu hu!

However, the dark silhouette was just too fast. After trailing it for an hour, no other creature had appeared except for the dark silhouette. However, after an hour, they had still let the dark silhouette disappear. The biological detector was of no use.

“Bastard! Let it run away still. It’s so fast, just what is that thing?”

“It’s black! Its body isn’t very big… it can even climb trees. Can’t see what it is, but we can be sure that we haven’t seen this creature before.”

“Contact the headquarters!”

“Yeah, that’s the only way!”

“Captain?”

The five mercenaries gasped for breath and stopped. After confirming that they had lost their target, they immediately focused their attention on Manuel, who was looking at the rocket launcher.

However…

They did not receive any answer to their questions.

Because…at that moment, as Manuel looked at the before of him, his body began to tremble crazily, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

Perhaps everyone’s attention was placed on the black figure and hence they did not notice.

But, Manuel saw it clear as day…

In front of him were ten ravines that were half a meter to one meter in length. Lining them were dark red blood stains. Moreover, this ravine stretched endlessly before his eyes. The end could not be seen… Most importantly, having been a mercenary for so many years and fought many battles in the jungle, the moment he saw the ravines, he immediately realized that they were definitely not what humans are capable of creating.

If it was not a human?

Then what was it?

What kind of thing…could create such deep ravines in the ground when it moved?

A snake!

At this moment, Manuel’s mind was filled with the thought of snakes.

But… how big would a snake that had left such a track be? Anyhow, the current Manuel did not dare to imagine it.

Huff huff huff!

He took in deep breaths. He did not see any signs of life on the way, but he did see a lot of blood.

If he connected them…

Could it be that a giant python had eaten all those creatures?

“Captain?”

“What’s going on?”

“What should we do next?”

After losing the target, the other five mercenaries all raised their heads, trying to find the target. As they were speaking, they were not bothered about Manuel’s answer. It was only now that they all turned their eyes to Manuel.

“Be quiet! You all come over…look in front of me!”

Manuel growled in a low voice.

The voice came from deep down his throat, hoarse and slightly trembling.

Hm?

When the other five heard this voice, their bodies froze.

Thud thud thud…

Not daring to delay any longer, they quickly walked in front of Manuel. When they followed Manuel’s line of sight and looked over, the expressions on their faces were even more exaggerated than his. They were instantly dumbfounded, their mouths gaped open and were unable to say a word for a long time.

Moreover, these people observed even more closely than Manuel.

Manuel was only caught up on the deep ravines, focusing all his attention on them.

However, among these five people, some of them also discovered that…at the front of the seemingly endless ravines, a huge fire had occurred before. The huge trees at the front had all been reduced to ashes. The manner of burning being of a diameter of more than twenty meters was obviously caused by an eruption of flames. If not for the fact that the trees in the forest were all green and it had rained a few days ago, the extent of such flames would have been enough to annihilate the entire forest.

The element of luck definitely could not excluded.

Huff huff huff!

Thud thud thud…

It was hard breathing, and the thudding of their beating hearts.

The atmosphere lasted for more than ten seconds before one of them shouted loudly.

“Oh my god! Was this caused by snakes?”

“There are also traces of burning. Only humans can use fire. Could it be that humans had come here before this?” 1

“So much blood. Just what happened here? Oh my god!”

“This is too shocking! I think we’ve discovered prehistoric creatures!”

These mercenaries cried out consecutively.

As ordinary mercenaries, they would not have known about the fire on Research Island as well as the python incident…

This time, the mission given to them by the higher-ups was just to hunt some creatures and explore… This discovery in front of their eyes naturally gave them a huge shock! Of course, these six people probably would not have even dreamt that from the moment they had first set foot on Research Island, they had already become sacrifices.

Their only use was to be able to pass some useful information when they were faced with dangers.

However…

A little accident was happening now.

These six people had actually charged into the red egion in one piece.

Moreover, their current location was precisely the place where Wang Wen and the crocodile king had fought previously.

Eh?

After hearing the voices of those behind him, Manuel suddenly regained his senses. His eyeballs rolled as he began to quickly survey his surroundings.

It was obvious that there had been a fierce battle here.

A large number of giant trees had been crushed.

The ground was covered in dark red blood traces. If one took a few deep breaths, they could even smell the nauseating stench of blood.

The soil was turned over.

The rocks were shattered…

The surroundings were destroyed beyond recognition.

“Captain! Captain… This place isn’t caused by battles of wild beasts, right?”

A mercenary’s voice trembled.

This area was too quiet. In such a terrifying environment, the aura of death continued to spread around them. Even though they had been on the battlefield for a long time, the fear of the unknown was a little unbearable.

“Shut up! What kind of beast can cause such great damage?”

Manuel immediately roared furiously.

However, after saying this, even he himself could not believe it.

The scene was so tragic. The area where the big tree was broken was uneven, clearly having been caused by a huge force. However, there were no traces left behind by any heavy man-made machines in the surroundings…even the ten ravines had appeared out of nowhere. There were only outwards ravines, none inwards!!!??

It was extremely terrifying!

A huge monster that appeared out of nowhere, caused a massacre here, and then left?

At the very least, this kind of result was completely unacceptable to Manuel.

Just as Manuel was about to continue observing the situation around him and thinking of how to report about the situation here, a mercenary standing behind him suddenly lost control of his emotions and started screaming.

Ah…

The voice was simply hysterical!!!
