Chapter 286: Chapter 260: Global Catastrophe (Two-in-One)_2

Above,

in those cities where the Mysterious Evil creatures were already quite rare, glaring red marks sprouted like bamboo shoots after a rain, one after another.

Like drops of blood staining the white canvas.

Shocking and alarming to anyone who saw it.

The Night Watch Team/The Secret Security Bureau squad, quickly launched an assault.

But at the same time, the top officials of various countries couldn’t help but turn their gaze towards Dong Huang.

"In such a terrible environment, can the base city project really ensure safety?"

...

...

In Dong Huang, alarms in local investigation bureaus had already been sounding off.

The building interiors were almost empty; investigators in black trench coats had already set off before the Tide of Gray Mist descended.

The sky was dark, and underneath the overcast heavens, figures with flames in their hearts dashed in all directions.

Baijiang City,

the land where dreams began... cough, on a street just a few hundred meters from a certain direction instructor’s residence, pedestrians tightened their collars and murmured as they looked at the suddenly much darker sky.

"What’s going on, is there a storm coming?"

"The weather has been gloomy and rainy these days, something’s not right."

"It suddenly feels a little cold, strange..."

Among the passersby, a young man with twisted dark lines on his hands furrowed his brows.

A feeling of unease, like a missed heartbeat, began to emerge in his heart.

"This isn’t right!"

The young man, Yi Yiying, stopped in his tracks and looked around with a mixture of shock and gravity—he trusted his intuition, because he was an Awakener!

An Awakener from the general public!

But at that moment, his Ability didn’t provide him any sense of security; instead, a chilly sensation raced up his spine. While Yi Yiying observed his surroundings, quickly scanning the area, tens of meters away where wisps of gray mist drifted...

The strands of mist suddenly swelled and contracted.

Underneath the drifting fog, a cluster of gray, mangy shadows appeared! No longer invisible to the naked eye, under the influence of the mist, a ferocious outline appeared before the eyes of the pedestrians.

Coming along with it was a piercing, grinding roar.

"There’s a monster, there’s a monster!"

"It’s Mysterious Evil! Run, run!"

"Ahhhhhh—"

The roar from the monster was like needles piercing straight through the forehead.

People a bit further away could stagger and run off, but those closer could barely maintain their consciousness just from the roar; curling up on the ground, they spat blood and tears of blood flowed from their eyes.

Even Yi Yiying, an Awakener, had to clench his teeth tightly to fight against the rational assaults that came in waves.

"This Mysterious Evil is terrifying!"

He had seen Mysterious Evil before, but this was the first time he had seen one of such a massive size.

Standing over two meters tall, on all fours, it simply towered over the nearby cars. With a sweep of its claw, it easily ripped open the metal body of the car, sweeping it aside as if it were mere garbage.

Then, it turned slightly and locked its gaze on the closest prey, a middle-aged man convulsing on the ground.

It had chosen its victim.

Even seeing only a silhouette, Yi Yiying was certain!

The Mysterious Evil creature crawled forward.

Thump, thump, thump!

The ground trembled, as though pounding against Yi Yiying’s heart.

He was not with the investigation bureau, nor had he registered with the Hunter Association; since his Awakening, he had always hidden himself, disliking exposure to the sunlight, finding a sense of security only in the shadows—just like his Awakened Ability.

"Damn it!"

Yi Yiying dashed forward, and after a dozen paces, he suddenly crouched down, spread his fingers wide, and struck the asphalt road with all his might.

The dark stripes on the back of his hand came alive, spreading out in an instant like two extending shadows, two ropes of shadow!

Stretching out, they latched onto the monster’s hind legs.

The shadows coiled like ropes, tightening their grip.

The Mysterious Evil howled, struggling violently, making the shadow ropes seem like they could snap at any moment.

Yi Yiying clenched his teeth.

"Damn it..."

"Where’s the backup? Why aren’t they here yet?"

The moment his thought finished,

a half-burnt cigarette spun through the air from afar, landing precisely on the large Mysterious Evil creature.

Like a match to a barrel of oil, blinding flames burst forth, engulfing the massive monster.

A composed man in a black trench coat walked over from a distance.

Flicking away his lighter, he lit a second cigarette and flicked it, delivering the final blow to the monster enveloped in flames.

Boom—!

Flames consumed the Mysterious Evil, and slowly extinguished.

Yi Yiying let out a sigh of relief and looked towards the man in the black trench coat.

He recognized him, or more accurately, he had seen him on TV—the Chief of Baijiang City’s local bureau, a veteran special-grade investigator who had fought against many Ghastly Realm gate disasters and the recipient of multiple medals of honor—Chief Wei Nian of the Secret Security Bureau!

Following behind Wei Nian were more than a dozen newly arrived investigators.

"Teams three and four, assist the injured; administer purification drugs to those affected,"

"Teams one and two, follow me to the next location,"

He passed by Yi Yiying and nodded in approval, "Young man, you did well."

But he didn’t do what Yi Yiying feared—in the face of an exposed Awakener’s identity, forcibly recruit him into the investigation bureau.

He breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Just as he exhaled, another change occurred; the gray mist thickened slightly, and more piercing roars reached his ears.

Wei Nian suddenly turned back, his expression solemn as the deep sea.

"A level one incident!"

"Sound the alarm for this district and quickly organize the evacuation of personnel!"
