Behemoth let out a threatening growl from his throat, God knows how much it wanted to bite off this pair of snow-white arms, then look at the human who was groaning in pain. However, it couldn't move right now, so it could only watch as the little girl gently put her hand on its face.
Following that, a song that sounded like it came from the heavens floated out from Moni's mouth.
It was a very normal lullaby, but when it was sung by Moni who had his eyes closed, it had a strange magic. Hearing the gentle sound of the song, the wildness and fury in Behemoth's eyes slowly faded away. Moni's singing reminded it of its home. On quiet nights, Behemoth liked to fly to the tallest mountain in the world and quietly listen to the wind in the sky.
Amidst Moni's singing, Behemoth gradually calmed down, and even the way he looked at Moni became gentler. The beast slowly closed its eyes. A turbid drop of liquid appeared in the corner of its eye, then it quietly disappeared into the brown fur.
Behemoth suddenly felt that maybe not all humans were so detestable.
At least, the human girl in front of it was not that annoying in its eyes.
However, just as the girls and giant beasts were enjoying a rare moment of tranquility, the big doors of the warehouse suddenly opened. Then, Camber's voice sounded: "Quick, pull out that big guy for me. "Hey, little girl, why are you here?"
Chapter 88 - Wolf Pirates Reappearance
Hearing Camber's voice, Behemoth suddenly opened his eyes. The gigantic beast flung Moni's hand away and roared as it stood up from the cage. Behemoth revealed his claws which were wrapped around the electric snake, and angrily patted the cage.
Behemoth's actions frightened Moni, so she kept backing up. Then, she was dragged outside the door by the ashen-faced Bart. Bart bellowed at the soldiers he had seen before: "Who allowed you all to let her in?"
Outside the door, Zero also came. Bart pulled Moni and pushed her to Su Ling's side, then said in a bad tone, "Listen, if she really is your daughter, I trouble you to watch over her, and not cause any trouble for us, Sharpshooter!"
Zero had not replied to Bart. This was indeed Moni's fault. He nodded and pulled Moni behind him. Moni stuck her head out from behind her waist and looked at the few warriors under Bart's hand who were ferociously swinging the electric whip at the cage. Immediately, the good conductivity of the cage made Behemoth suffer. Camber shouted loudly, and immediately, ten or so servants ran forward and placed Behemoth's cage onto the carriage.
"What are they going to do?" Moni asked.
Unexpectedly, Zero did not ask her why she was here, but only replied calmly: "It's a show. Camber wants this big guy to perform at the central plaza of the city. A performance like this will last for around two days. "
Moni quietened down, she was very clear on the meaning of this performance. This was definitely not like the so-called celebrities of the old era. They would be able to get quite a bit of compensation just by gracefully walking around the stage. Moni had also performed before. The first time she danced with a man in a tavern, she was forced onto the stage by Johnson's blade. After such a performance, the protagonist would not get any compensation at all. If he messed up, he might get a beating instead.
Therefore, Moni knew that Behemoth's performance could not be considered as pleasant.
When the two-headed horse carriage slowly drove out of the hotel, Moni saw the huge beast in the cage look at her. That glance contained a lot of information.
"You want to help it?" Zero asked.
But what surprised him was that Moni shook her head and said: "No, I can't even help myself."
She looked up and said lightly to Zero, "We're not saviors, are we?"
"You're right." "But I can take you to see the performance of this new friend of yours," Zero said.
"I'm not going anymore." Moni shook his head and said, "I'm tired, I want to sleep."
"Okay, let's go back to the room." In Titan City, there was no need to worry about Camber's safety, so he held Moni's hand and walked back into the room.
However, Zero did not know that this might be an exception. The danger was quietly brewing in the wilderness.
In the darkness of the wilderness, various colored eyes would occasionally light up. However, when these people looked towards the direction of the Titan City, they all instinctively shifted their gaze. This was because they had received a dangerous aura when they were in that direction. These lone rangers that roamed the wilderness had keen senses, which was the condition for them to survive in the wilderness.
The source of the danger was a modified large-caliber assault rifle, the heavy firepower's rapid fire cannon that was installed on the SUV but could be dismantled at any time, and most of the danger came from the sinister faces.
These grown men's hair was dyed in all sorts of colors, and their faces, ears, noses, and even their lips were nailed with small willow nails. The arms that were exposed in the air, or the upper part of the upper part of the chest, were all tattooed with wolf totems. Because they had lived on the surface for a long time, their bodies were more or less covered with mutated organizations, the extent of their variation far surpassed that of the citizens of Angry Reef City.
From afar, they looked like a group of ferocious devils that had crawled out of hell. In fact, they were a pack of dangerous wolves.
A wolf thief!
In front of a few modified off-road vehicles was a burly man driving a heavy metal style locomotive. The wheels of the locomotive were unusually large, almost as big as the wheels. A metal wolf skull was embedded in the front part of the locomotive. Two beams of light shot out from the eye socket of the wolf head. They were the source of light for the locomotive. The rider on the engine was obviously impatient. He was constantly pounding the throttle, but his pair of legs were nailed to the ground in the wilderness.
The exhaust pipe of the locomotive then spewed out a hot stream of air with a faint flame. The spinning tires sent the sand and rocks flying into the air, but the locomotive remained motionless.
The knight was dressed only in a black leather jacket with rivets all over it. There was a huge wolf head tattoo on his chest. Following the rise and fall of the knight's chest, the muscle fiber's slight tremble allowed the wolf to come alive, and it stared at the wilderness ferociously.
The knight had long red hair, wild and rough, like a rock singer from the old days. From afar, it looked like a ball of crimson flames burning in the wilderness. This red hair was the symbol of a knight, marking his identity as the Wolf King.
Red Wolf, the leader of the wolf thieves, was also a Power User with a Rank 4 ability. His ability was the devil wolf avatar of the mutation domain. Being able to change his genes and become a giant wolf the size of a water buffalo in a short amount of time was the reason why Red Wolf ran rampant in the wilderness.
Right now, Red Wolf was impatiently looking at the distant wilderness. In that direction, the outline of the radio station loomed in the darkness.
"Head, could Mad Dog be messing with us?" A man who looked exceptionally petite and thin in the middle of the group of bandits stepped forward and said. He was as thin as a match, but his pair of eyes would occasionally flash with a faint azure flame.
This person was called Phantom Fox, Red Wolf's left and right hands, and at the same time, he was a level two esper. Phantom Fox's ability was the mind and soul of the perceptual domain, so this kind of ability might not be very strong, but people with weaker willpower would be easily affected by this ability. And Phantom Fox, was the only character in the wolf bandit who could kill without blood being shed.
Red Wolf shook his head and said coldly: "If the mad dog dares to mess with me, I will turn him into a real mad dog."
Just as Red Wolf was talking, the base of the radio station suddenly rose up. Red Wolf laughed, then roared out: "Bring your weapons with you, listen, our target is the children of Qin Tan City. Adults are not allowed to be killed, but children, you better be careful. They can sell for
close to ten thousand yuan on the black market. If we screw up this time, I'll kick out your eggs! "
Once Red Wolf finished, the group of thieves roared. Then, under Red Wolf's lead, the pack of wild wolves headed towards the Titan City. At that moment, the citizens of Titan City were attracted by the brilliant performance that was held in the central plaza. No one knew that the demons were sneaking into their city.
Chapter 89 - Entry
The sudden prickling sensation on his skin made Zero bounce up from the floor. The two guns were already in his hands, ready to fire at any time.
But the hotel room was completely silent. Moni and Lara hugged each other and slept on the bed, breathing evenly. Outside the window, cheers and curses could be heard continuously from the direction of the central plaza. It seemed like Camber's performance had been rather popular.
Zero walked over to the window. There was a faint sense of danger in the air. He frowned and thought about it, but he couldn't think where it came from.
However, Zero trusted his instincts, so he stuffed the sniper rifle into the Colt. After some thought, he took out the bullet again. He held the bullet in his hand while his palm emitted a faint red glow. The red water flowed like water and was then completely poured into the bullet. The sniper rifle bullets were suffused with red light patterns, which flashed and disappeared. However, once the bullet hit the target, it would trigger Su's explosion.
Explosive Fireball, an alternative use method that Su was proficient in with her level 1 Fire Element. This was the only method he had right now to use this kind of Elemental Su's ability. Although the power of the explosion was less than one-third that of the fragment grenade, the effect of the explosion after hitting the target could increase the power of the normal sniper bullets by roughly twofold.
Zero pressed this special bullet into the barrel of the gun and then sat by the window, looking at the artificial lighting flowing through the ancient style of the city, silently waiting for danger to descend.
Camber was very happy.
Anyone who could earn close to a thousand yuan in one night would be as happy as Camber. Furthermore, Camber did not even need to sell any goods to earn this amount of money. The only thing he exhausted was Behemoth's physical strength.
The performance that was held in the center plaza was actually Behemoth's demonstration. The gigantic beast was locked inside a gigantic cage that was wide enough for Behemoth to freely move inside. On the other hand, the soldiers of the Arctic Fox were beating the cage with their electric whips. Through the cage's electrical conductivity, they caused Behemoth, who was in the cage, to experience continuous electric shocks. It was just that the electric whip was not releasing the high voltage current, thus Behemoth's function was not paralyzed.
However, the beast was successfully enraged. It used its roars and the buzzing sounds of its electric claws to show the residents of Titan City its ferocity.
The people who came to watch tonight were all adult male residents of the city. Women and children were not allowed to attend such gatherings. So now the central square was a sea of men and beer.
Of course, Camber would not miss this chance to earn money. After collecting a fee to watch Behemoth's performance, Camber added another program. It was to challenge Behemoth. The challenger had to pay a fee. If the challenger were to defeat Behemoth, then Camber would have to pay a prize of more than ten times.
The people of Titan City were naturally strong, and Camber's bounty stung the eyes of these men. The men who advocated the Spartan style of education practically fought to be the first to challenge the gigantic beast, Behemoth.
Amongst all these, there was no lack of people who had mutated Su's ability. Although their abilities were all around the second or third stage, most of the beasts that could transform were bears or leopards. But without exception, other than increasing Camber's income, all they could gain were countless wounds from Behemoth's lightning claws. Even so, the men continued to enjoy themselves.
It was a crazy night. The scorching sound wave from the central plaza made the Titan City's soldiers itch. The blood boiling in their bodies made the soldiers wish that they could go down and challenge the metamorph s that they had never seen before. Hence, the excessive excitement did not bother them. Tonight, their superior was acting a little strange.
Cobb was the city guard captain in charge of defense for the Titan City. He liked alcohol, cigarettes and women. He was no different from the other Spartan men in the Titan City. But tonight, it was much quieter than usual, ever since he and his aide-de-camp, the mad dog, had returned from smoking in the wilderness.
The first thing Cobb did after he returned was to give the soldiers a break. Other than the three who were responsible for managing the base's entrance and landing platform, the other soldiers of the city guard team all got a precious night of rest. This made the soldiers cheer, and no one noticed that Cobb's eyes were a lot more cloudy than usual.
After the soldiers left, Cobb suddenly asked one of his subordinates, "Open the entrance?"
The soldier thought he had misheard and asked, "Chief, what did you say?"
"I said open the entrance." Cobb repeated.
The three soldiers looked at each other. The one who was called said, "Chief, what's the point of opening the entrance now?"
"So much nonsense." Cobb suddenly stepped forward and placed a hand on his subordinate's shoulder.
All of a sudden, the soldier heard a low voice in his mind. "Do as I say. Open the entrance!"
The soldier's eyes immediately clouded up like Cobb's, and he began mechanical manipulation. Watching as the soldier typed in a series of commands, the Two Soldiers who seemed to sense that something was amiss stood up.
Cobb suddenly made his move, firing two shots from a distance of less than three meters. The bullets hit the young soldier's body. They didn't even have the chance to use their most powerful mutation ability before they laid down in confusion.
However, the soldiers controlling the platform turned a blind eye. Under his control, the elevator at the entrance of Titan City slowly opened, and a team of strange people entered the city. If the soldiers were conscious, he would have discovered that these people were the infamous wolf bandits in the wilderness.
The wolf thief drove the SUV and modified locomotive out of the elevator, and Red Wolf was surprisingly inside. The leader of the bandits narrowed his eyes and looked towards the central plaza as he said loudly, "Listen, we will create chaos there to attract the attention of the city's Magistrate and soldiers. As for Phantom Fox, you have twenty minutes. During this time, you guys better bring as many of Titan City's brats as possible with you. "
"Understood, boss."
Phantom Fox made a "OK" gesture, and then muttered to himself, "Interlinked mental hints are really not people's work". As he said that, Phantom Fox walked into the elevator. Beside the elevator door, there was a skinny man wearing the uniform of the Titan City city guards. Seeing Phantom Fox walking over, the man excitedly licked his tongue.
Phantom Fox laughed strangely and threw a bag of money to the man, saying: "Get lost you crazy dog, you better run far away. Otherwise, if the people of Titan City find out that you betrayed them, they might even skin you alive. "
This person was precisely Mad Dog. It was he who had tricked Cobb into the wilderness, and then let Phantom Fox give Cobb a mental hint, thus diverting the soldiers and letting the Wolf Thief in. Red Wolf had coveted the children of the Titan City that had potential for mutation for a long time. This kind of brat could be sold to the black market merchants. They would be trained to be good soldiers, and soldiers like the Da Xia Kingdom or the West Continent's Sacred Kingdom would need them.
In this world, war did not happen only in Mainland China. War raged on in the other two continents all year round. For children like the Titan City to become outstanding soldiers meant that they could be sold for a good price. And even children without potential could be sold as slaves or
labourers. To Red Wolf, this was a business that would never lose anything.
It was just that the Titan City was not a wilderness place, and the wolves did not come just because they said so. After half a year of planning, only then did the thief, through the man named Mad Dog, make a gap in Titan City's metal barrel. Therefore, Red Wolf decided to go all out tonight!
Chapter 90 - Confusion
Without any warning, the attack started. A fragment grenade was thrown into the crowd in the plaza. Before the excited crowd could react, the sound of the explosion drowned out the roar of the man in the flickering firelight. Twenty-five broken pieces shot out in all directions. Among the crowd that had been blown away by the shock wave, ten people immediately died. Four or five of them were killed on the spot because they had been embedded in major parts of their heads and chests.
The sound from the central plaza immediately quietened down, Camber who was making a speech on the temporary stage saw that the situation was not good, and immediately jumped down from the stage. Just as adventurer stepped down from the stage, a few more hand grenades were thrown in, followed by the roars of automatic machine guns. The explosion of the grenade and the hot metal had made people realize what had happened, but quite a few had already fallen.
Camber hurriedly retreated under the protection of the Arctic Fox Mercenaries. adventurer looked at Behemoth who was standing on the stage and roared at the top of his lungs, "Take it away!"
"I'm afraid not, sir." Bart shouted loudly, they did not expect that the attack would happen inside the Titan City. Therefore, the mercenaries who came to the square did not carry machine guns with them. At most, each of us will only bring one automatic pistol: "The opponent's firepower is too strong, we can only bring you out and leave now. As for the metamorph, we will just have to leave it to fate! "
Camber was so angry that his face turned green, although he had over a thousand dollars in his pocket, the difference was like heaven and earth compared to losing Behemoth. If this metamorph was successfully sold to Dark Council, Camber would have at least a hundred thousand yuan or so in his account.
