Fishing in Troubled Waters

When Meng Chao resurfaced, the sewage treatment station in Horizon was already in a mess.

As large amounts of bubbles gushed out of the filthy river water, the air was filled with a choking and pungent smell. From time to time, clusters of colorful firelight would appear, like numerous ghosts baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. They were dancing above the guards' heads.

Meanwhile, the tremors in the cave were getting more and more intense. A ton of rock powder and crushed stones fell from the cave ceiling with crackling sounds. They smashed onto the biochemical refuse reactor's metal outer wall, causing a series of clanging sounds that were even more terrifying.

Accompanied by a series of hair-numbing cracking, crisscrossing rifts appeared on the rock walls around the cave like spider webs.
