A moment later, a giant beast appeared in the distant forest.
The giant beast looked like a huge snail, carrying a heavy spiral shell on its back. Yet numerous octopus-like tentacles flailed from its soft body, while two rows of arms as thick as tree trunks crawled along beneath it.
The creature moved slowly through the mountains and forests, looking like a sitting duck.
"Don't act rashly." Yang Kui's voice rang out over the squad channel. "My uncle once said that the giant beasts in the Desperate Battlefield are very cunning."
"Sometimes they deliberately isolate themselves to lure humans into attacking."
"My uncle and the others were tricked by these giant beasts once. Later, they thought they had found an easy target, but they nearly died on the battlefield."
At this moment, their mechas were all kneeling on the ground, using the tall, dense forest as cover. The mechas of Yishui Academy also had camouflage paint.
Unless someone approached, they would never discover that several mechas were lying in ambush here.
Zhao Chen agreed. "Our mission is to patrol, not clear out giant beasts. Unless necessary, don't get into a conflict with them."
Cheng Zhiye muttered, "It's best not to fight if we can avoid it, and best to retreat if we can. In any case, it never hurts to be careful."
This Mecha Squad from Yishui Academy remained hidden like this until the giant beast's signal vanished at the edge of the Giant Beast Radar. Only then did the students breathe a sigh of relief.
Yang Kui immediately reported their discovery of the giant beast's movements. The camp responded soon after, telling them not to provoke the beast and to continue carrying out their mission.
The camp would not waste its efforts tracking down a single giant beast, either.
