Chain Symbol

The Silver-Winged Yaksha's body suddenly vanished.

The Starvation Corpse corpse fell to the ground with a thud.

Qin Yiguan turned around and carefully examined the corpses of the Starvation Corpse.

From a distance, Tie Liang looked utterly horrified. "Starvation Corpse... dead? And just now, didn't a huge monster wielding a steel fork just appear?"

But at Men Luosha's prompting, Tie Liang had to suppress his curiosity and search for his companions who had just been knocked away.

Dressed in a tight leather Men Luosha, with her stunning curves, stood at a distance, quietly watching Qin Yiguan.

Qin Yiguan's gaze swept over the body of the Starvation Corpse inch by inch.

Its body bears no artificial marks, nor any physical characteristics of any animal.

"In other words, it doesn't seem to have been created by humans, nor did it originate from a mutation of some animal?"

Qin Yiguan frowned in thought, "Did the Gemini Superbrain really create independent life, and in this monstrous form?"

In that instant.

Qin Yiguan suddenly noticed something strange.

On the chest of the Starvation Corpse was a very inconspicuous mark, no bigger than a fingernail, hidden under Starvation Corpse skin. On its 5-meter-tall body, Starvation Corpse was indeed easy to miss!

The pattern was a small chain.

Three oval metal rings are linked together, one after the other.

Qin Yiguan narrowed his eyes, "God's Abandoned, investigate this symbol!"

A large amount of data flashed through my field of vision.

Any graphic that resembles this chain was retrieved.

final.

God's Abandoned concluded, "In the Metaverse, there is no pattern that is 100% similar to this logo, nor are there any non-governmental organizations or technology companies using a similar logo."

Qin Yiguan pondered for a moment, "Such a distinct and clear mark shouldn't be a birthmark of Starvation Corpse, should it?"

In short, Qin Yiguan still didn't quite believe that these Starvation Corpse were native creatures from the Metaverse!

now.

Tie Liang had helped more than a dozen team members over one by one. Fortunately, most of them had minor injuries, and only a few had more serious fractures. These riders were, after all, humans with modified limbs. In critical moments, their mechanical limbs would activate self-protection functions, protecting their owners from impacts in milliseconds.

The two team members possessed by the "Hunger Particle" were, like Qin Yiguan, emaciated. However, everyone felt much more at ease, since the Starvation Corpse were gone and the two should recover soon.

These people truly deserve to be called tech enthusiasts.

Having just escaped danger, they began repairing their mechanical limbs.

Damage to these mechanical creatures is the most unbearable thing for them. Even if their flesh is shattered and blood is gushing from their foreheads, their priority is to repair their mechanical limbs!

"Huh?"

"Hey guys, help me find my size 4 screw! I accidentally dropped it on the ground and I can't find it anywhere!"

But then they saw a rider, holding up his half-disassembled mechanical arm, lying on the ground with his buttocks sticking out, staring wide-eyed, desperately searching for some small object.

"This is fucking crazy!"

"This is such a small, flat area under my feet, how could the screw be missing!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yiguan slowly turned around and gazed at the riders from afar.

Just then, another rider complained, "What the hell?! My miniature wrench, I just knocked it off the ground, and I watched it land behind that Shitou. I've searched the whole Shitou, but I can't find it anywhere!"

Qin Yiguan's brows slowly furrowed.

Lost your little thing?

It fell to the ground and then disappeared?

A child's innocent voice echoed in my mind—"Do you know what Ground Mouth ' is? It's a strange creature. Usually, it hides in cracks in bricks or walls. Things we drop, like buttons or coins, all sorts of small things, get eaten by the Ground Mouth, and then it hides back in the cracks, and we can never find it again..."

Qin Yiguan slowly narrowed his eyes, a conjecture forming in his mind.

In that instant, his gaze fixed on an inconspicuous crack in the Shitou. Within that crack, no more than 1 centimeter wide, were two tiny eyes, no bigger than sesame seeds, shining brightly.

Qin Yiguan darted out, grabbed the Shitou, and with a snap, pried open the gap with a powerful movement of his arm!

Within them lay a tiny, trembling creature with a triangular body and gray fur.

Qin Yiguan picked up the small creature and saw that it had a large mouth on its belly, but no fangs. It wasn't fierce at all; instead, it looked rather silly and cute.

Qin Yiguan shook the little creature, and various small crystals, screws, and tiny wrenches the size of beans fell out of its mouth.

"Ground Mouth?!"

Qin Yiguan's eyes widened.

But at this moment, the Ground Mouth was terrified. It twisted and turned in the air for a while before finally curling up.

Qin Yiguan's Pupil contracted, because he saw that there was also a small chain symbol on the back of this Ground Mouth.

"Could it be..."

Qin Yiguan's guess became clearer.

He let go, Ground Mouth landed on the earth. He moved swiftly, disappearing into a distant crevice in the rocks in a flash.

And at this very moment.

Men Luosha approached Qin Yiguan, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said, "Qin Yiguan, thank you for your help just now. If it weren't for you, our entire team would probably be stuck here."

Qin Yiguan was pondering other questions, and simply waved his hand lightly at Men Luosha.

Men Luosha stared blankly at Qin Yiguan's somewhat indifferent expression.

"Cough cough."

Men Luosha cleared his throat and continued, "You're the mysterious person who saved sectors B5 and B6. For the past month, we've been stuck in B5 and B6, so strictly speaking, this isn't the first time you've saved us."

Qin Yiguan remained silent.

Men Luosha smiled, untied her ponytail, tossed her long hair, and unzipped her leather jacket, revealing her snow-white neck and chest, which was covered with fine beads of sweat.

She looked at the corpse of the Starvation Corpse ahead. "After we sell the Starvation Corpse to the ' Collector,' I'll give you half of the bounty... or you can have the whole bounty. In any case, I must express my gratitude. But before that, we should exchange Digital ID."

Men Luosha's words hadn't even fully faded.

But then they saw the Starvation Corpse corpses ahead suddenly begin to melt, turning into a transparent slurry. Finally, all of this slurry seeped into the ground and disappeared completely.

Everyone present was stunned!
