The body of a fish with the tail of a snake, its skin adorned with pearl-like scales, resembling a large lizard with armored skin, its four legs and slender neck, the neck white as an infant, and a horn-like protrusion on its forehead.
This looks almost identical to the mythical "Jiao"!
"Does Jiao really exist? Then Dragons too..." He Zhan was still a bit shocked by what he saw in front of him.
"Fake! This thing is definitely not a living creature!" Minister Long suddenly interrupted his speculation harshly!
He felt no trace of a living being from this monster, only a strong visceral feeling of a Fierce Ghost!
Having said that, he reached out again to twist the Magic Cube!
This time, every small piece on the Magic Cube opened eerie blood-red eyes, all staring at the monster that seemed like a Flood Dragon.
Instantly locking the space around it, attempting to begin transferring it to a place further from the water source on land.
Above were Shadow and Sun Zhoushan with a sniper's stance, definitely making it easier to handle this thing than underwater, and he wouldn't have to constantly maintain the "hamster ball" space to prevent water from coming in.
The monster seemed to feel it too, starting to struggle and making a sound like a cow's moo, making it appear even more like the legendary Flood Dragon.
With its entire body violently thrashing, it darted away like a torpedo, disappearing in front of the two in an instant.
"Damn! It can't be locked!"
Minister Long couldn't help but clench his fist, feeling incredulous.
He could easily erase everything within the hydropower plant's range from existence, yet he couldn't lock and transfer this mere few-meter-long entity!
The Fierce Ghost Ability would weaken to an extreme when touching the monster's scales, rendering stable space transfer impossible.
Now that it escaped, how could it be found in such a large reservoir?
Before Minister Long could figure out how to find the monster, a large swath of mud and sand stirred again at the bottom of the water ahead!
The black silhouette swiftly glided past the "hamster ball," but it didn't attack the two. Instead, it kept twisting its body as if fighting against something.
Holy crap! What the hell is this commotion?!
"Could that damn thing be Shadow?"
He Zhan said, somewhat dumbfounded.
Because behind the Jiao Dragon Monster, there was a humanoid creature wielding a cleaver, chasing after it and chopping, the two entangled in a fierce battle.
The swirling mud and sand were caused by the impact of these two fighting.
Minister Long's Magic Cube turned instantly, providing Wu Liang, who originally needed to hold his breath and couldn't stay in the water for long, in a disadvantaged position with an air helmet.
"Thanks! You guys move to the center quickly! Leave this thing to me!" Wu Liang shouted to the two upon realizing he could breathe freely.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Jiao Dragon Monster swung its tail heavily towards him!
With previous experience, Wu Liang knew that he couldn't outswim this thing in the water; dodging directly wasn't possible.
Just as the tail was about to hit him, a coarse hemp rope appeared out of thin air from the side!
This was the Hanged Ghost's ability!
Surprisingly, the rope wasn't tied towards the Jiao Dragon Monster but was tightly wrapped around Wu Liang's waist.
The rope yanked him backward two meters in an instant, and the Jiao Dragon Monster's blow swept past him without causing any harm.
"Heh, now let's play a best of three!" Wu Liang said coldly.
With those words, the rope around his waist pulled him towards the Jiao Dragon Monster swiftly, serving as a booster, remarkably shocking to witness.
One man and one Jiao stirred the waterbed's mud once again, making the battlefield even murkier.
After receiving Wu Liang's hint, Minister Long and He Zhan also swiftly moved towards the center of the reservoir.
This time, without the Jiao Dragon Monster's obstruction, they naturally reached their destination quickly and witnessed something even more abstract.
"Minister Long, could this thing really appear in the reservoir? Am I seeing things?" He Zhan rubbed his eyes and said.
"Maybe we both are..."
Minister Long, unusually, didn't remain composed, considering what they saw seemed somewhat abstract—
Holy crap, there are buildings at the bottom of the reservoir!
A total of five bungalows were lying quietly at the bottom of the reservoir, their surfaces vaguely covered by a strange barrier, completely isolating the water from approaching the interior of the buildings.
Just like the "hamster ball" that Minister Long locked at this moment!
"The Promised Land actually also harnesses spatial abilities?" Minister Long frowned as he approached.
The next second, his communicator suddenly beeped.
This communicator was temporarily made by Sun Zhoushan before leaving the base for their team members.
Not to mention underwater, it can even communicate through a supernatural blockade!
Unfortunately, it cannot be mass-produced and only a single-digit number of communicators can exist at the same time for communication. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs nοvelfire.net
"Dragon Department! I've found that there are strangers hiding in the dark observing us on the shore, they might soon notice that you and He Zhan are missing!" Sun Zhoushan's voice came from the communicator.
Minister Long pondered for a second then said, "Aim your sniper at them, if anyone shows the slightest sign of getting into the water, make sure to blow their head!"
At this point in time, normal civilians can't get close to the reservoir, supposedly only their group and the hydropower station staff can appear.
And those from the Promised Land!
If the strangers are preparing to get into the water, there's no doubt; they're definitely members of the Promised Land!
"To capture bandits, first capture the ringleader! Let's go inside and demolish their lair!" Minister Long said coldly.
The people responsible for surveillance on the shore wouldn't be of much importance; if they're killed then they're killed.
The real big catch is the mastermind protected by such an outside Jiao Dragon Monster.
Hidden inside these five bungalows is the behind-the-scenes villain!
They made it to the bungalows without any obstruction, paradoxically hearing the sound of their footsteps at such a depth of over ten meters, which indeed felt absurd.
"Hmm? Such a concealed base... there's no alarm or anything?" He Zhan was very surprised that they could just walk to the door so easily.
Minister Long, however, reached out and touched the air barrier isolating the water behind him and said flatly, "Of course there is, I just turned it off."
The next second, he reached out his hand to a void and made a grabbing motion, continuing for about three seconds before releasing.
"This spatial barrier inherently has that effect, without the corresponding activation object, it would mostly be inaccessible and trigger alarms or something."
He flicked his hand as he walked forward disdainfully, "Unfortunately, the use of space at this level is still too immature in my presence."
The door was pushed open.
The scene inside revealed a purgatory-like scenario, with the stifling smell of blood instantly causing both their pupils to constrict.
He Zhan couldn't help but clench his fists, his eyes turning red.
Finally gritting his teeth, he squeezed out a few words: "These bastards... actually conducting such experiments..."
