Subsequent investigations and statistics further confirmed the correctness of Xiao He's statement.

In countries with good environmental practices, the probability of being attacked by monsters is significantly lower. However, in heavily polluted countries, especially in heavily polluted areas, the incidence of attacks is particularly high.

Although the facts have proven Xiao He's words to be correct, the measures taken by various countries are to block information and make the public believe that this attack is just the Superpower of some Mutant, rather than the price they paid for their past wanton destruction of the environment.

However, the truth soon came out, as an attack the following day completely exposed the lies of various countries.

F Island in R Country was attacked by a colossal sea monster, and almost half of the city was razed to the ground. This was also the first time people had seen half of this terrifying creature's body, because it was so huge, almost like an island, that even an aircraft carrier looked like a toy next to it, and one of its eyes was bigger than a tank.

In fact, this creature is not an octopus or Kraken. Its upper body is somewhat like a crocodile, with two thick forelimbs, but its lower body has tentacles like a squid, and the ends of the tentacles are gaping, gaping maws.

The public named it the "Abyssal Crocodile," and the creature was so large that it could be seen with the naked eye from satellites on the day of the attack.

The attack resulted in extremely heavy casualties and economic losses, affecting the entire R Country.

The fact that the entire F Island nuclear power plant and its wastewater were dumped back into the inland areas of R Country inevitably leads one to believe that the Abyssal Crocodile launched the attack to protect the ocean.

The day after F Island was attacked, the Special Response Department members gathered together to discuss the issue.

"This thing is even bigger than F Island itself! Such a behemoth... can only be hidden at the bottom of the sea." Xiao He frowned as he looked at the satellite photos.

"Yes... but the good news is, there's only one of these in the whole world." Cui Man sighed, lining up the photos on the table one by one. "But other monsters are different..."

Judging from the pictures above, there are probably more than a dozen places where the Titan Python was attacked, and they are all in forests.

Titan Python varied in size, but the smallest were still 30 to 40 meters long and over a meter in diameter. The largest exceeded 100 meters in length. However, none of the Titan Python that have been documented are as large as the one found in the Amazon Jungle. Current speculation suggests that the size of Titan Python depended on the extent of the forest; the larger the forest, the larger the serpent.

As for Titan Sandworm... these creatures are mainly found near mining areas and cannot survive in other soil types, so the best way to avoid being attacked by them is to stay away from mining areas.

But avoidance is not the best solution; the problem must be solved. To avert this disaster, many countries have had to shut down some of their heavy industries, and the world faces billions of dollars in economic losses every day.

However, even after only a day or two, the Earth's environment has indeed improved significantly.

"So..." Cui Man rolled her eyes, "The United Nations wants to ask us... to be precise, to ask Yinglong to eliminate the Abyssal Crocodile."

"... How do we get rid of it?" Xiao He asked after a moment of silence.

Cui Man rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the back of her head. "Because humans simply can't defeat such a creature. When it attacked F Island, we tried to use the military to attack, but I think even Nuclear Bomb wouldn't be able to harm it given its size. Besides, military submarines can't reach that depth, so I can't think of any other way besides relying on you..."

"Can we just leave it alone?" Xiao He frowned. "Anyway, it attacked R Country. To be honest, it did something I wanted to do but couldn't."

"But that sea area is already very close to our country," Cui Man frowned. "Our fishermen are terrified right now, after all... everyone is afraid of seeing that kind of thing. A giant python that's thirty or forty meters long is one thing, but a monster as big as a city? That's beyond people's comprehension."

At this point, Cui Man's expression darkened. "Do you know what the key point is? Some unscrupulous individuals are taking advantage of this opportunity to inflate seafood prices and make huge profits. Now, many types of seafood have increased in price several times over."

"This is outrageous!" Ye Wanqing said angrily. "They're already inflating seafood prices at such a young age! Old Xiao and I were planning to buy a king crab for hot pot in a few days!"

"The ZB family can't let go of any money-making opportunity," Cui Man sneered.

"Even if you say that, there's nothing I can do..." Xiao He muttered, resting his chin on his hand, then turned to Ye Wanqing: "Little Pufferfish, do you think you can change that monster's name?"

"I... I'll give it a try." Ye Wanqing seemed a little hesitant. "I think I'm fine on my end, but..."

"Are you worried your husband might expose you?" Cui Man asked with a smile.

Ye Wanqing nodded. "That thing is the embodiment of the ocean, how could Old Xiao possibly fight against the entire ocean by himself?"

"I don't think it's that bad. After all, the Abyssal Crocodile is only part of the ocean, otherwise..." Cui Man sneered, "It would have completely destroyed that small island nation long ago..."

"Hmm... okay then." Ye Wanqing thought about it and felt it made sense, so she picked up her phone and started making changes.

After making the modifications, Xiao He began to imagine the Abyssal Crocodile as his Imaginary Enemy. Then he felt a chill on his neck, reached out and touched it, and found a crack opening on both sides.

"Is this... his cheek?" Ye Wanqing curiously reached out to touch it, but was afraid of hurting him.

"I think it should be..." Xiao He replied, "The good news is, at least I won't self-destruct because of this."

With that, Xiao He stood up. "Then I shall set off."

"Brother Xiao!" Xia Yu suddenly stood up at this moment, "Shall I go with you?"

"It's alright, I can handle it myself," Xiao He replied.

"Just in case," Xia Yu said with a smile. "With another person, it'll be easier for you, Brother Xiao. I'm quite capable underwater, you know, and I have many abilities that I can enhance."

"Alright then." Xiao He nodded in agreement. To be honest, he was a little scared to go to such a place alone.

So, Xia Yu then injected himself with the enhanced pistol shrimp and grabbed Xiao He's hand.

Xiao He activated his Dimensional Walker ability and then brought Xia Yu to their Seaside Villa.

The Abyssal Crocodile lurks in the Mariana Trench at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, at a depth of 10,000 meters. It is impossible for humans to reach such a depth; only exploration submarines can reach this place.

Xiao He turned to look at Xia Yu, Xia Yu nodded. Then the two of them rushed into the water. Xiao He tried to take a deep breath. He could feel the water passing through his neck and cheeks, and then the air flowed into his lungs.

"Incredible..." Xiao He couldn't help but think to himself.

But Xia Yu was clearly used to this kind of thing. She gently patted Xiao He's shoulder and then pointed down.

Xiao He nodded. It was difficult to pronounce accurate musical notes underwater, so they could only communicate through gestures.

The two began to descend, and as they gradually increased in depth, the surroundings became pitch black. But strangely, Xiao He's eyes changed; even in complete darkness, he could clearly see the scenery around him.

Moreover, the deep-sea area actually doesn't have as many creatures as one might imagine. On the contrary, the deeper they dive, the fewer creatures they encounter. This lifeless atmosphere intensifies the fear in people's hearts.

However, compared to the Abyssal Crocodile, the water pressure in the deep sea is the truly terrifying enemy. At this depth, even a tank would be crushed into a pile of scrap metal.

However, Xiao He and Xia Yu's physical structures have changed, allowing them to adjust their physiological structures to maintain consistent internal and external water pressure.

When they reached a depth of about 7,000 meters, this was an area where light could not reach. Even with Xiao He's special eyesight, he could only see blurry shadows here. Most of the area was pitch black. However, he had another ability that could help him "see" on the seabed: sonar.

Using the sonar system, he could visualize the specific terrain around him.

"Almost at the bottom..." Xiao He thought to himself, but even now, he still couldn't spot the Abyssal Crocodile.

But just as he was wondering where the monster was hiding, a strange red light slowly expanded from in front of him. Then Xiao He realized that it was a huge monster opening its eyes.

As the enormous eye fixed on Xiao He, an indescribable fear spread through his heart: the eye alone was as big as a truck, so one could only imagine how long the monster must be.

It wasn't that Xiao He's sonar system failed to locate the Abyssal Crocodile; rather, the creature was lying on the seabed, blending seamlessly with the ocean floor, its body completely filling the Mariana Trench, to the point that Xiao He thought he had come to the wrong place.

At this moment, the monster began to move, and Xiao He realized just how enormous it was. His sonar couldn't even cover the monster's entire body; in its presence, Xiao He wouldn't even be enough to fill its teeth.

"My God... how the hell are we supposed to destroy this monster?" Xiao He muttered to himself in disbelief.

However, the Abyssal Crocodile launched the first attack, with several tentacles surrounding Xiao He from all directions.

Even one of its tentacles was the size of a subway compared to Xiao He's physique.

However, once this thing is renamed, Xiao He will definitely be able to defeat it. So now Xiao He is not only able to survive in the deep sea, but his greatest strength is his ability to control water currents. And his current control over water currents is something that Apasi's level can't compare to.

Xiao He waved his hand, and the water swirled rapidly, forming a sharp vortex that circled around him, severing the several tentacles that were attacking him.

The Abyssal Crocodile let out a deep roar and rose from the seabed, as if to say, "I'm getting serious." The monster's movements stirred up the ocean currents.

The powerful current pushed Xiao He and Xia Yu backward, while the Abyssal Crocodile swept its tentacles toward them. Xia Yu raised her right hand and fired an air cannon shot from the claw under her pistol, a powerful stream of water flying out from her palm.

However, the air cannon exploded after hitting one of the tentacles, a ring of bubbles spread out, and a dazzling red light emerged from the broken part of the tentacle, as if it had been burned off!

"So that's how it is... This is the enhancement of Xia Yu's pistol shrimp, truly amazing," Xiao He thought to himself. "But today, I am the man loved by the sea."

Xiao He raised his hands and clenched them tightly towards the monster in front of him. A dozen thick whirlpools began to swirl around the Abyssal Crocodile, churning wildly on Abyssal Crocodile massive body like sharp blades.

Xia Yu also kept firing water guns at the Abyssal Crocodile. The high-speed jet of water created air pockets that resembled cannonballs, and the high temperature of over 4,000 degrees Celsius was enough to melt the Abyssal Crocodile's body instantly.

Under the attack of Xiao He and Xia Yu, the behemoth struggled violently on the seabed, letting out painful roars. The strong currents caused by its struggle even formed whirlpools at a depth of 10,000 meters, and countless tentacles attacked Xiao He from all directions.

On this day, despite the clear blue sky, the Pacific Ocean was swept by a violent storm, with towering waves that affected all the surrounding islands. Even the Hawaiian Islands could feel the terrifying force emanating from beneath their feet.

No one knows what kind of terrible battle is taking place 10,000 meters below the surface of the ocean.

But everything ended with the opening of the Abyssal Crocodile's mouth. Xiao He and Xia Yu disappeared into the Abyssal Crocodile's gaping maw, and the seabed returned to calm.

Suddenly, a powerful jet of water pierced through the neck of the Abyssal Crocodile, then circled its neck once before the monster's head detached from its neck and slid down to the seabed.

Then, several bursts of water mist erupted from the severed neck of the Abyssal Crocodile, and the air cavities exploded, blasting several holes in the Abyssal Crocodile's body. Xiao He and Xia Yu took the opportunity to swim out.

"My goodness..." Xiao He couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the massive, mountain-sized head of the abyss Abyssal Crocodile that had been severed from its body. "How am I supposed to bring this thing back to show everyone?"

However, just as Xiao He was worrying about how to bring the giant head back, the massive body of the Abyssal Crocodile turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared.

This situation reminded Xiao He of Sean Stanley, the little boy who helped Raphael create a fictional six-winged angel.

However, Xiao He knew very well that although it looked very similar, this thing could not possibly be the little boy's ability, because Sean was still under their control, and it was impossible for anyone to make him believe that such terrifying creatures existed in the world.

Could it be...?

Xiao He frowned: Was it someone like Adam, who can steal and enhance other people 'Superpower, who stole this power from that brat?

Thinking of this, Xiao He felt a surge of irritation. "Ugh, I've had enough! Can't we just stop having these troublesome guys around? What's wrong with a peaceful life?"

But at that moment, Xia Yu patted him on the shoulder, indicating that the task was complete.

Xiao He nodded, took Xia Yu's hand, and then used the Dimensional Walker to return to the Special Response Department.

The two coughed and vomited water from their lungs. Xia Yu dripped down their bodies, and the Special Response Department members immediately surrounded them and handed them towels.

"How did it go? Did you deal with that monster?" Cui Man asked, drying Xia Yu's hair, while Ye Wanqing personally dried Xiao He's hair.

"Actually, it's not as difficult to deal with as you might imagine," Xiao He replied. "I think Xia Yu can handle it without me."

"No, my attacks were hardly fatal; it was entirely due to Brother Xiao's control of the water flow," Xia Yu said with a wry smile.

"Where's the body?" Wu Changchun asked urgently. "Have you obtained any samples?"

"Sorry, the corpse turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared." Xia Yu shook his head.

While drying Xiao He's hair, Ye Wanqing asked curiously, "Disappeared? Why does this situation sound a little familiar?"

Xiao He turned to Cui Man and asked seriously, "Sister Man, are you sure that brat Sean Stanley is being 'protected'? Is no one trying to instill strange ideas in him?"

"I'm sure," Cui Man said confidently, "This isn't his Superpower, although it sounds very much like it..."

"Sigh, let's see how things go," Xiao He sighed. "At least the problem of the Abyssal Crocodile is temporarily solved..."

"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Now that the mission is done, go take a shower." Ye Wanqing patted a towel on his face. "Otherwise, even if you don't catch a cold, you'll still have a lot of salt on your body when the seawater dries up."

However, just the day after Xiao He thought he had at least dealt with the Abyssal Crocodile, news came that the coast of M Country had been attacked by the Abyssal Crocodile. At the same time, the Titan Python and Titan Sandworm that had been eliminated by the armies of various countries also "respawned" and attacked the industrial systems that had been painstakingly restored.

So, the truth could no longer be hidden, and everyone discovered this common point: the monsters always attacked areas most severely polluted by some kind of pollution, such as ocean pollution, deforestation, geological damage, and so on.

However, these Titan Creatures only attack these heavily polluted areas and do not attack other places, nor do they attack proactively when they encounter each other. Rather than saying that the "Titan Creatures" are attacking humans, it is more accurate to say that "Earth" is protecting itself.

This sparked a series of protests and marches by environmental enthusiasts, and the biggest challenge became how to eliminate these Titan Creatures: because these creatures are simply impossible to eliminate, they are "the will of the Earth."

The Abyssal Crocodile is the "malice" of the ocean; as long as the ocean exists, this monster will continue to regenerate.

But how could Xiao He "defeat" the ocean? Even if he could defeat the ocean, humanity would still face extinction.

At this moment, Han Xin, who had arrived in Wyoming, looked at the news on his phone and let out a cold laugh.

"This problem should give the Special Response Department a headache for a while, right? It can buy me some time to make a proper plan." With that, Han Xin continued forward in the darkness, muttering to himself, "It should be around here, right? Those scum..."

In this vast wilderness, Han Xin walked forward slowly and deliberately, standing out conspicuously.

Finally, several enormous black shadows appeared in front of Han Xin. One was a creature resembling Medusa, and the other was a three-headed creature with a human body and sheep legs. Upon seeing this, Han Xin stopped and stood with his hands in his pockets, watching them.

"Good evening, you good-for-nothings," Han Xin said with a slight smile.

"What? Did this little guy just call us 'useless'?" Sate asked, turning to Medusa.

"Absolutely..." Medusa opened her mouth, which split open all the way to her cheek, and exhaled a puff of purple smoke. "Tell me, you little thing, are you really not afraid of death?"

"Hmph, what a waste of time. Let me eat him. It's been so long since I've tasted human flesh." Sate said, waving his hand towards Han Xin's neck.

A dark shadow flashed by, followed by a "plop" as something fell to the ground behind them.

"Huh?" Sate stared blankly at his missing right arm. "What did you do!?"

"Do you know? Only the weak become Mutator," Han Xin chuckled, clenching his fist. "Scum like you who can't even control your own desires are only good for being my food..."

"Who... who are you?!" Sate retreated in terror.

"Me? Yes, how about I give myself a name? What should I call myself?" Han Xin muttered to himself, stroking his chin.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Medusa pounced on Han Xin with lightning speed and bit his shoulder!

With a "poof!" sound, Medusa's head suddenly exploded, turning into a cloud of green blood mist.

"Hmph, a bunch of Mutator who lost Moriarty..." Han Xin said coldly, his left fist still in a punching stance, "You should have died with Moriarty when he failed, yet you've still managed to linger on until now."

Sate took a step back in fear. He sensed a familiar aura and a sense of oppression emanating from the man before him, a kind of oppressive force... somewhat similar to that of "Yinglong". He retreated in fear, while Han Xin approached him step by step, but at that moment another dark figure rushed out from the darkness.

"Demon Spear, Julius!" Julius roared, plunging his left hand into Han Xin's chest.

"Ugh!" Han Xin grunted, flying backward and sliding two or three meters on the ground before coming to a stop.

"Hmph? This aura... I initially thought it was Yinglong." At this moment, Julius had transformed into a gigantic gray monster, its head and legs turning into sharp spikes, and it only had one finger on its hand, but that finger appeared exceptionally thick and sharp. "So it wasn't after all?"

"Don't compare me to that scum..." Han Xin patted his chest and coughed, his brows trembling with anger. "My Superpower are tens of thousands of times stronger than his! He's just a piece of trash who can't fight without the help of others..."

"Oh, look!" Julius laughed. "This guy who can't even withstand a casual shot from me dares to be so arrogant... Yinglong didn't even flinch when he took such a hit. Right, Mr. Tamura Toshio?"

"Hehe, hehe..." A Mutator with crimson eyes, resembling a humanoid toad, grinned maliciously, but it seemed to have lost the ability to speak and could only laugh foolishly.

"It means, eat you..." Julius said, taking a step closer to Han Xin.

Behind them, more shadowy figures were constantly emerging from the darkness, numbering probably over a hundred.

"Heh? I thought most of you guys were dead, but it turns out there are still so many left." A fierce glint flashed in Han Xin's eyes. "Then let me show you 'fear'..."

"Hmph, do you really think you're Yinglong?" Julius sneered, pointing both hands at Han Xin's head. "If I can't beat Yinglong, surely I can beat an unknown nobody like you!?"

But just as his fingers were about to touch Han Xin, a cube appeared in front of Han Xin, and Julius's arm broke off after piercing the cube.

"Ahhh!" Julius screamed, staring in astonishment at Han Xin before him. "This... this ability, I've seen it before! Yinglong used it too!"

"Don't compare me to that guy. That trash borrowed his abilities, while mine are my own." Han Xin sneered, waving his hand to deactivate the cube. "A bunch of guys scared witless by Yinglong... The one you should really be afraid of is me!"

Tamura Toshio moved swiftly, appearing behind Han Xin. He yelled and punched Han Xin in the back.

However, Han Xin didn't even move. He absorbed the kinetic energy of the punch, then raised his hand and pressed it against Tamura Toshio's chest, returning the impact of the punch intact.

The powerful impact pierced through Tamura Toshio's chest, creating a hole the size of a bowl.

"Huh?" Tamura Toshio looked down at his chest in surprise, seemingly not understanding what was happening.

"This... this guy... can he use all of Yinglong's Superpower?" Julius looked at Han Xin in horror and backed away.

The sounds of fighting continued to emanate from the scene. The Mutator went from initial excitement to astonishment, and finally to fear, until the scene fell into a deathly silence.

"That's right, that's it..." Han Xin raised the heads of Julius and Tamura Toshio in his hands and grinned maliciously, "Fear it, tremble, and then offer me your sacrifices... As long as you continue to fear me, I will spare your lives."

The Mutator looked at each other in bewilderment, and after a while, they all knelt down before Han Xin.

"Very good." Looking at the Mutator before him, Han Xin nodded in satisfaction, tossed aside the heads of Julius and Tamura Toshio, and clenched his fist. "The power is surging..."

Han Xin let out a trembling laugh, which gradually grew arrogant. "From this day forward, spread my fame, sow my fear! Then accept my rewards and live in fear! I... am 'Chaos'!"

Han Xin raised his hand and waved it. Particles gathered from all directions, forming a white suit, a black shirt underneath, and a black mask on his body, as if he were a being completely opposed to Yinglong.
