But the police car had barely traveled two meters when two terrifying bone whips snaked out of the alley.
They plunged into the rear of the car, anchoring themselves firmly.
The officer at the wheel saw the terrifying sight in the rearview mirror and pressed harder on the accelerator.
The rear wheels scraped fiercely against the ground, and the police car dragged [HeLa Cell] forward.
[HeLa Cell] was dragged to the ground and scraped violently against Mother Earth. One side of his body was rubbed into a bloody mess, even exposing the bones.
Pulling against the two bone whips behind him, [HeLa Cell] righted himself. Then he dug the sharp claws on his four dog legs into the ground, trying to stop the police car.
The officers inside instantly felt a force resisting the car's progress.
One officer stuck his head out to look behind them, and his jaw nearly hit the ground in shock.
[HeLa Cell], hooked to the back of the car by two bone whips, was actually trying to stop it with his body of flesh and blood!
The officers began to panic. This was a xenospecies, after all; stopping a car with his own strength wasn't necessarily impossible.
The police car dragged [HeLa Cell] down the road, leaving several gouges in its wake. Old Wang, who had just finished drinking and was about to head home, saw the terrifying sight and hurriedly took two swigs of liquor to clear his head.
The police car slowed more and more, and the officers' hearts rose into their throats, bit by bit.
"Where's the gun?! Shoot him!" the officer with his head out the window couldn't help shouting at the others.
Another officer, who had been scared out of his wits, snapped awake at the shout. He hurriedly leaned out the window and fired wildly at [HeLa Cell] behind the car.
Bang-!
Bang-!
Bang-!
Bang-!
Every single shot missed.
"How the hell are you shooting?!"
"I don't know! It feels like our car is shaking!"
"Shaking?" The other officers looked at the driver. Sweat streamed down his face as he struggled with the steering wheel, trying to keep the car straight.
"He's... he's shaking the car," the driver slowly forced out. The other officers' faces filled with terror.
Before they could react, [HeLa Cell] suddenly heaved, flipping the massive police car over.
The car's momentum carried it and [HeLa Cell] sliding forward several more meters before it crashed into a fire hydrant and came to a stop.
The two bone whips pulled free of the rear of the car, then turned into black slime and returned to [HeLa Cell]'s body. At the same time, [HeLa Cell]'s form began to change.
As he retracted the two bone whips, his body slowly grew larger, until he had once again taken on a gigantic form resembling both a lizard and a crocodile.
Water gushed like a fountain from the broken hydrant, spraying over [HeLa Cell]'s enormous body and the battered wreck of the police car.
An officer inside the car slowly opened his eyes and found that he and the entire car had overturned. He looked at the other officers and tried to wake them.
But no matter how he called to them, the others remained unconscious, as though they couldn't hear him.
Suddenly, through the rearview mirror, he saw a giant crocodile opening its bloody maw and slowly swallowing the police car.
He struggled and kicked at the car door, trying to escape, but the door had been warped out of shape and wouldn't open.
In the end, the officer could only watch in despair as the police car was crushed and slowly squeezed him inside.
