Chapter 190: Beep Beep, Here Comes the Little Electric Scooter

This was a seven-person team with a clear division of labor and ample preparation.

They weren't members of any special department.

Instead, they belonged to another underground organization, a vast one whose internal structure remained a mystery even to its members.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

They moved with incredible speed, darting through the forest like cheetahs. Soon, they reached the area of energy fluctuations.

The man carrying two large machetes, his face impassive, looked around and asked, "Is this the place?"

"Yes, it's here. According to the monitoring, the energy fluctuations are within this vicinity, no more than ten meters away."

The man waved his arm, and the seven-member team dispersed to search. Their carpet-like search would quickly locate the entrance.

They were under orders from the organization to find the source of the energy fluctuations. Although they didn't know what it was, their mission was simply to bring it back to the organization.

As for what it actually was, that wasn't something they needed to know.

"Be careful, everyone. Don't act rashly."

The man with the machetes stood proudly, observing the surroundings. He needed to oversee the situation and intervene decisively at the slightest hint of anything unusual.

Before long, a team member called out, "Found it!"

Everyone followed the voice.

Before them was a cave, bottomless and shrouded in darkness. They stood there, hesitant to move. Although they had found the cave, no one knew what lay within.

A team member checked the cave's conditions.

The results came back quickly.

"Oxygen levels normal."

"No toxic substances."

"All readings normal."

With normal readings, they needed to investigate inside. Confirming a safe cave environment didn't guarantee safety within.

"Xiao Jie, you wait outside. The rest of you, come with me."

Gao Xiong, holding his machetes, prepared for battle. They held a high position within the organization, often handling dangerous missions like this. Having experienced countless life-or-death battles, they had developed a seamless synergy.

"Brother Xiong, be careful. According to the energy fluctuations we just detected, although we can't fully assess it, the energy is not weak," said the man called Xiao Jie.

"Mm."

...

A modest electric scooter sped along a suburban road.

"Strange, why haven't we encountered those weird guys we saw the other day?" Lin Fan muttered to himself.

Old Zhang replied, "Maybe they're sleeping."

"Yeah, maybe."

The two spoke of impossible things, yet to them, these things were real, beyond doubt. The exchange between the mentally ill was always so simple and innocent.

The Evil Chicken didn't want to talk.

Once in the suburbs, it felt like the world was its oyster. This wasn't bragging; it had a basis. If it released its Evil Hero aura and summoned the Evil Army, who could stand against it?

Xu Zihao cautiously followed behind.

"What are they doing in the suburbs?"

He was curious. To him, only evil creatures appeared in the suburbs. Could they be here for a showdown with evil?

At this thought, he felt a flicker of anticipation.

Master Yongxin wasn't so lucky. Halfway through his tracking, One-Eyed Man called him back, leaving him feeling quite frustrated.

But there was nothing he could do.

He could only cast a longing glance back before leaving.

...

The Evil Chicken sensed the surrounding aura. Strangely, it couldn't detect any of its kind. Even if they had been driven away before, they would merely be hiding somewhere, not completely vanished.

Wait.

There was a strange aura.

The Evil Chicken looked into the distance. The aura resembled that of an evil creature, yet it was different, a peculiar sensation.

It pondered.

Should it go and investigate?

As it contemplated, a roaring sound echoed from afar. Then, from the distant forest, numerous startled birds took flight, as if frightened.

"Lin Fan, look over there," Old Zhang pointed. "The sound came from there just now."

Lin Fan asked, "Should we go check it out?"

"Sure." Old Zhang was eager.

The Evil Chicken realized the place they mentioned was the source of the strange aura, but it didn't react outwardly.

It waited patiently.

I support your suicidal endeavors.

An aura that makes even me, the Evil Hero, uneasy must be incredibly dangerous. I hope you won't regret this.

...

"Die!"

Gao Xiong, wielding his two machetes, roared, leaping from above and slashing fiercely at the evil creature. Sparks flew, and his expression changed drastically. Suddenly, a tail whipped through the air, sending him flying.

Pfft!

He coughed up blood.

He hadn't expected a hidden evil creature within the underground cave. Or rather, the creature had been dormant, awakening upon their arrival and launching a ferocious attack.

This creature resembled a mutant species.

They had never seen anything like it.

It looked like a cockroach but wasn't, possessing two heads and a long, slender, agile, and powerful tail. Most importantly, its body was incredibly tough.

Gao Xiong looked at his machetes, their blades now chipped.

His teammates were severely injured, leaning against trees. The creature watched them closely, ready to suppress any escape attempts.

He was the only one still capable of moving freely.

The Two-Headed Evil Demon displayed a human-like expression, waving its tail and slamming it into the ground, leaving a deep gash. It then flicked dust off its chest.

Its demeanor was somewhat contemptuous.

"This evil creature..."

Gao Xiong circled the Two-Headed Evil Demon, his machetes in hand, his mind racing. What kind of creature was this? Its power was terrifying.

"How are you all doing?"

"Brother Xiong, this must be a mutant evil creature, not something we can handle. It's toying with us. If you get a chance, run."

Gao Xiong was a Level Eight expert.

The other six were Level Seven.

In a single exchange, they had been reduced to this state, while the creature fought Gao Xiong evenly. Even though Brother Xiong was powerful, he couldn't have inflicted such injuries on all six of them in one move.

This creature was clearly extraordinary.

Who was it playing with?

"Damn it!"

Gao Xiong cursed inwardly. You think I don't want to run? But he was locked onto by the creature; escape was impossible.

"I'll fight you to the death!"

He roared, charging towards the creature with his machetes raised.

A Level Eight expert with vast combat experience, his every strike was precise and deadly. Yet, the creature effortlessly blocked each blow with its bare hands, shocking Gao Xiong. The force of the impact split his hand, blood gushing out.

The Two-Headed Evil Demon kicked Gao Xiong away.

The force was immense.

Even with his machetes raised in defense, it was useless. The blades shattered, and he went flying, crashing to the ground with a thud.

"Heh heh!"

The seven-person team saw the creature's corner of mouth curl into what seemed like a disdainful smile.

The mission the organization had given them was impossible.

They were about to lose their lives here.

Beep!

Beep!

Just then, a sound reached their ears.

How could there be the sound of an electric scooter in the wilderness?

"Lin Fan, this road is so rough! My butt hurts," Old Zhang complained.

Perched on Old Zhang's head, the Evil Chicken was momentarily dislodged with each bump, only to land back precisely.

Lin Fan said, "Don't worry, it'll get better soon."

He honked the horn, wary of any sudden animal crossings.

Hitting a small animal would be heartbreaking.

Gao Xiong and the others watched in bewilderment as the red electric scooter wobbled closer. Which idiot is riding an electric scooter out here?

This wasn't something an ordinary person would do.

They must be insane.

The Two-Headed Evil Demon looked curiously at the approaching scooter. Then, the Evil Chicken perched on Old Zhang's head caught its attention. Was it brought here by that evil creature?

The rumors were true.

Some evil creatures had sided with humans, betraying their own kind. This must be one of them.

Lin Fan expertly braked, putting one foot on the ground. He looked at the creature standing there and smiled. "Old Zhang, I've found the weird guy we were looking for."

Old Zhang tugged on Lin Fan's sleeve. "But it has two heads!"

"Don't be afraid, I'm here," Lin Fan reassured him.

He knew Old Zhang was timid.

Just like back in the mental hospital.

The most timid of them all.

Sometimes, during thunderstorms, Old Zhang would hide in Lin Fan's bed, scared.

"Do you need help?" Lin Fan asked the seven strangers.

Gao Xiong ignored Lin Fan, looking for an escape route.

If someone could distract the creature, they might have a chance.

Xu Zihao, trailing behind, was astonished.

He hadn't expected to actually encounter an evil creature.

"What kind of evil creature is this? I've never seen it before. Another unknown species?" Xu Zihao pondered.

At the Xia Du headquarters, he was always the first to know about any new evil creatures. Not because he liked their appearances, but because he wondered which expert could create such bizarre beings.

"Heh heh, let me see how strong you really are."

Xu Zihao remained hidden, observing.

But when he saw Gao Xiong and the others, he paused, a sense of familiarity nagging at him. He couldn't quite place them at the moment.
