Cloverfield! Just as Haida and John said, it is a found-footage film. The entire movie is shot from the perspective of the protagonist's handheld camcorder, attempting to provide an immersive experience.

It is very shaky.

Many monsters flash by quickly, so Fang Xiu paused several times throughout to observe frame by frame.

The story follows the protagonist, Rob, who is about to go on a long trip. With his departure imminent, his friends throw him a farewell party, and he hopes to use this opportunity to win back his ex-girlfriend.

However, a sudden disaster disrupts all the plans the male lead had made, while also shocking everyone attending the party.

As the building shakes violently, people assume an earthquake has hit New York and swarm into the streets! On television, the news is reporting live on the event suspected to be an earthquake, but everything that follows quickly proves this is not the truth.

A massive fireball explodes on the distant horizon, triggering a powerful shockwave. Everyone is stunned by the sight before them!

The male lead and his group stumble as they flee, struggling to make their way toward the safe zone mentioned in the news.

The streets are filled with screaming, roaring, and weeping crowds. At this moment, the protagonist and his companions finally discover that this disaster is caused by an unknown monster!

The truth is that New York is under attack.

The massive head of the Statue of Liberty is thrown onto the street. Knowing the situation can no longer be hidden from the public, the government begins emergency evacuation operations.

On the bridge leading out of the city, crowds of refugees are packed everywhere, and at this moment, a giant monster appears before them like the Grim Reaper!

This is the first time Fang Xiu sees the intuitive combat power of the monster the Shazhou Team will have to face! With a single strike from a deformed tentacle, the sea-crossing bridge snaps instantly.

"It is indeed a giant beast."

"Fortunately, it only involves physical-level power..."

Hearing their captain's somewhat optimistic remark, the Arab woman Haida wants to say something but hesitates.

Beside her, the boxer John is also full of conflict; he seems to want to warn him about something important, but in the end, he forces himself to hold back.

The subsequent plot is a bit cliché—the male lead and his group, seeing that the ground is too dangerous, decide to move underground to find a safe path. Their companions die one by one by his side during this process, but nothing can stop his desire to survive and save his ex-girlfriend...

"These small monsters don't have much combat power."

After finishing the movie, Tang Tian instantly feels he can hold his own again, also optimistically saying, "A few ordinary people with tools can injure them. For someone like me who has exchanged for Mutant Spider bloodline and can conduct urban warfare in complex terrain, it couldn't be more comfortable."

Subconsciously, he leaves the most troublesome final boss to Fang Xiu, just like in the previous two trials! "We need to prepare some antidotes, even if everyone has enough immunity to resist many toxic substances after enhancement," the werewolf Emir adds. "In the movie, after that woman is bitten, she quickly starts crying blood, and her whole body explodes."

Infected by the atmosphere, the black man Odubiao puffs out his chest and says with a straight face: "In this regard, Holy Light can provide help. It's just a mere biological toxin."

With that, the two newcomers, Ye Mei and Yuan Meng, also breathe a sigh of relief. After all, if the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up; if the veterans aren't nervous, there's no need for them to worry unnecessarily.

"The monster is over a hundred meters tall, with long, tough limbs and a huge head resembling a rat, somewhat like a bat without wing membranes.

It's expected that tanks can't break its defense, but B2 bombers dropping massive amounts of bombs, possibly including thermobaric weapons, still can't kill it. That's a bit troublesome. Such exaggerated muscle density and biological activity... how exactly should we break its defense?"

Listening to the various discussions in his ears, Fang Xiu is lost in thought. He really only cares about the massive monster named Clover.

As for the small monsters? Leave them to his teammates—

They are just dog-sized creatures containing highly toxic substances; their raw strength isn't even as good as a few human women.

"Captain, can I be a buzzkill?" the boxer John speaks up abruptly, then adds, "We might be happy a bit too early."

Hearing this, Fang Xiu immediately pulls back his thoughts and says: "Of course. The more we know, the more detailed our preparations will be, and the team's survival rate will increase significantly."

At the same time, he has already silently begun psychological preparation, because the newly joined teammates have an actor identity and connections to Hollywood, so it is entirely understandable that they know insider information about the setting.

Everyone is silent.

No one dares to joke about this. Since he said he would be a buzzkill, he definitely has some cold water to pour.

"I once tried to audition for this movie, so I got some of the materials—the Clover monster's height while hunched is eighty meters. If it stands upright, it can reach one hundred and six meters, weighing 58,000 tons. And if you count the octopus-like tail, it can even break the three-hundred-meter mark."

The American boxer, famous for his acting, pauses as if organizing his thoughts, then quickly continues: "The film's producer, J.J. Abrams, once held a press conference to confirm to the public that it is a native Earth species, not an alien visitor, and this guy is still just a juvenile."

"The reason I say this is because at the end of the film's sister movie, The Cloverfield Paradox, a giant beast that exceeds the clouds appears."

"That's right, this movie is actually part of a trilogy, and they have certain connections to each other."

Haida nods. Even though she habitually covers her face, everyone can hear the gravity in her tone.

"..." Fang Xiu.

Breaking through the clouds?

At such a level, it really can't be described by the word "big lug"!!! The muscle strength and bone density must reach some ridiculous data; it could probably perform a stunt of swallowing a nuke and burping a mushroom cloud on the spot.

I have to go to the M79 Nebula and invite Ultraman Tiga.

"The Main God's ultimate goal is not to slaughter all Reincarnators; there is no need to infinitely overestimate the corresponding worldview."

His heart trembles for a moment, but as the team leader, Fang Xiu immediately steadies himself and analyzes in a deep voice:

"Assuming the team develops to the mid-stage, having experienced at least seven or eight plot trials, then it would indeed be reasonable to think in that direction. But the current Shazhou has only just stepped into its growth phase; the Great Light Ball won't arbitrarily raise the worldview and let a seed team that was so hard to assemble be destroyed."

"By the same token, if the team were strong enough, even if we experienced a beginner dungeon like Resident Evil or Xenomorph, we would still have to be vigilant, because the Main God would definitely arrange a bunch of strange enhancements for them."
