Le Gu Nan paused slightly, then asked in a low voice:
" The Calamity Beast have begun to move?"
"Hmm." Shen Heng nodded simply in response, then lifted his leg and ran upwards.
Seeing this, Le Gu Nan didn't dare to delay. While following Shen Heng's footsteps, she spoke into her earpiece:
" Sister Ling, the Calamity Beast have started moving, we..."
The two quickly approached the location of the Calamity Beast.
Shen Heng deliberately controlled the distance between them, keeping it at a moderate level.
If the Calamity Beast suddenly launch a large-scale attack like they are now, they can catch up in time.
If the Calamity Beast doesn't target ordinary people but suddenly changes its mind and comes towards them, they will have time to react.
Before long, the two arrived at the location of the Calamity Beast.
At this moment, a Black Jade Lion was gathering its strength backward, and then suddenly charged towards a somewhat damaged iron gate in front of it.
Bang!
A loud crash resounded, and the iron gate dented inwards slightly.
The Black Jade Lion didn't stop, or perhaps it was afraid of something. It kicked off the door with its hind paws and quickly leaped away.
Shen Heng glanced at the other Black Jade Lion, which was also about to crash into the door.
He raised his long sword and tapped it on the ground.
"Clang!"
The slightly abrupt, distinctly different sound made the Black Jade Lion stop moving.
It looked in the direction from which the sound came.
The Black Jade Lion paused slightly when it saw the two figures.
Instead of acting immediately, it turned its head to look in another direction.
Shen Heng's gaze was also fixed on that direction.
There, a much larger Black Jade Lion lay in the classic sphinx pose.
Its black mane swayed gently beside its head like burning flames.
It looked down upon its territory like a king.
Black Jade Lion King!
Sensing the arrival of a challenger in its territory, the Black Jade Lion King stopped lying on the ground and slowly stood up.
His golden, vertical pupils gleamed with a cold light as he looked at the two provocateurs.
Although I've teamed up with others to kill many Tier 3 Calamity Beast, including even Late Tier 3, Near-S-Class Dragon Armor Beast, I still have to be careful...
Shen Heng slowly raised his eyes.
After all, the opposing side doesn't only have the Black Jade Lion King as a single Calamity Beast!
Their jet-black and golden pupils met!
It was accompanied by a 'chicken' sound.
The long sword was slowly pulled out...
Inside the cold storage warehouse.
"Cough... cough..."
Xu Kai coughed up two mouthfuls of blood.
He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then looked back at the iron gate of the cold storage warehouse.
In his hand, a pistol was resting on the table, its muzzle firmly aimed at the iron door.
He was one of the first police officers to arrive at the Red Leaf Shopping Mall.
Upon arrival, it was discovered that people were still fleeing from the mall.
Realizing there might still be many people in the mall, he ran in after confirming that his remaining colleagues should be enough to lock down the iron gate.
Fortunately, because of his arrival, he saved several ordinary people who might have perished in the jaws of the Calamity Beast.
Later, he gathered more than a dozen people along the way.
Just as he led these people out, a Calamity Beast suddenly darted out from around the corner.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately raised his gun to fire.
The bullet hit the Calamity Beast, but he was also knocked down by Calamity Beast.
Fortunately, the Calamity Beast was confused because it was seeing this weapon for the first time, and it did not continue to attack him, but left immediately.
However, even the mere act of being pounced on by the Calamity Beast caused him to be severely injured, as if he had been hit by a car.
While not completely unable to move, each action has become much more difficult and strenuous.
Having learned that there were several Calamity Beast involved in this incident, he realized that in his current state, it was impossible for him to lead the others out safely.
Therefore, they changed their strategy and decided to hide somewhere and wait for the members of the Supervision Bureau to arrive.
He then asked the people who had been rescued.
I learned from a waiter at one of the seafood buffet restaurants that their restaurant has a cold storage room with a very secure iron door.
So he immediately changed his mind and brought everyone here.
The journey was smooth, with no attacks from the Calamity Beast, and he led his men to hide inside the cold storage warehouse.
But before they could even celebrate, the Calamity Beast followed them.
After lingering outside for a while, the Calamity Beast began scratching at the door with its claws, and then started ramming it.
Fortunately, the iron door of the cold storage warehouse was sturdy enough that it wasn't immediately broken open.
But it was still dented inwards from the impact.
At this moment, an opening, which was not small by human standards, appeared where the iron gate was.
With just a few more impacts—maybe three, maybe five, maybe ten—the iron gate will be completely breached.
But that's precisely why Xu Kai had some doubts.
He swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on the location of the warehouse's iron gate.
Why aren't the Calamity Beast outside crashing down anymore?
Have the Supervision Bureau arrived?
He shook his head violently to clear his slightly dizzy mind.
A soft, sweet voice came from behind me.
"Uncle, has Ultraman come to fight the little monsters outside?"
Xu Kai turned his head and glanced at the little girl who had just spoken.
The little girl was being held in the arms of a woman who looked to be in her early twenties.
On the girl's face, one could still see the deep fear and the dried tear tracks.
Not only her, but the people around her were the same; their eyes were filled with fear.
Those Calamity Beast we just saw.
That kind of worldview-shattering, direct confrontation with the fear of top predators.
It was deeply etched into their minds!
The only one who might not be afraid is a little girl.
Because her mother told her that the monsters outside were little monsters, and that Ultraman would come to save them soon!
Ultraman?... Xu Kai was taken aback, somewhat confused.
"It's nothing, we just wanted to ask how things are outside," the mother holding her child said.
Upon hearing this, Xu Kai also realized what was happening.
"Wait a moment, I'll go check!"
He stood up and walked with some difficulty toward the iron gate of the warehouse.
During this process, he raised both hands, keeping the gun barrel pointed at the iron gate to Calamity Beast from suddenly crashing into it and breaking it open.
Fortunately, his fears were not realized, and he walked to the edge of the large recessed hole in the iron gate.
He peeked out slightly, his gaze fixed on the entrance of the cave.
It was visible about twenty or thirty meters away.
Two figures were silently confronting three Calamity Beast.
Xu Kai's gaze unconsciously fell on one of the figures.
The young man had his black hair hanging low, his face calm, and he gently pressed the long knife in his hand against the ground.
The two sides remained in a silent standoff.
As time went by, the Calamity Beast gradually became agitated.
The largest of the Calamity Beast let out a low growl, and the two smaller ones beside it, as if receiving a command, roared and charged out.
On the other side, the two figures remained motionless.
They stood there quietly, as if waiting for each other.
The already short distance between the two sides quickly closed: 50 meters, 30 meters, 10 meters...
The young man with the knife moved, the long knife flowing naturally in his hand.
