As the team went deeper, the surrounding scene became more and more desolate. Large tracts of trees were uprooted, and the grass and trees on the ground disappeared, leaving only bare soil and traces of chaos.

Gu Yang gestured to the team members to stay alert from time to time. Their eyes wandered around, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

The injured deformed creature seemed unaware of them. It continued to move forward with concentration, occasionally making low groans.

Gu Yang and the team members kept a distance and followed it quietly. Their steps were light and slow, so as not to disturb the fragile creature.

After a period of tracking, they came to an unusually open area. The ground was covered with pits of different sizes, some of which were bottomless and some of which exuded a rotten smell.

Gu Yang frowned. He could feel that there was some ominous breath in these pits.

Suddenly, the deformed creature stopped, and its eyes were fixed on a huge pit in front of it. There seemed to be something attracting it there.

Gu Yang signaled the team members to stop. They hid in the bushes nearby and watched with bated breath.

The distorted creature slowly approached the pit, and its nostrils kept emitting hot air, as if it was detecting something.

Just as it was about to touch the edge of the pit, a larger distorted creature suddenly jumped out of the pit. Its appearance was covered with thick shells, and its eyes flashed with a faint green light.

The injured distorted creature screamed in fear, but the new distorted creature did not attack it. Instead, it gently nudged it with its head, as if to comfort it.

Gu Yang and the team members were stunned. They had never seen such a scene. There was actually some complex social relationship between these distorted creatures.

Gu Yang made a quick judgment. He believed that these distorted creatures were not brainless killing machines. They might have their own rules and order.

He signaled the team members to evacuate quietly. They needed to return to the camp, sort out these new discoveries, and make a new plan.

The team slowly retreated, their steps were gentle and steady, making sure not to leave any traces that could be tracked.

When they returned to the camp safely, the sky was already glowing with a faint morning light.

Gu Yang gathered all the team members, shared their findings, and discussed the next plan of action.

His eyes swept across the faces of the team members one by one, and everyone looked extremely serious. He cleared his throat and began to share his findings.

"We witnessed the interaction between the distorted creatures, which was different from anything we had known before. There may be a complex social structure between them."

Gu Yang's voice echoed in the camp, and the team members listened attentively.

"We need more information to understand them and determine our next move." He continued, "Therefore, we will observe their territory from a distance and no longer approach easily."

The team members nodded in understanding, and they began to prepare the observation equipment. Various tools were carefully checked and prepared.

They knew that this observation mission was crucial and might reveal the secrets of these distorted creatures.

With the preparations completed, Gu Yang led the team quietly to a high ground overlooking the distorted creatures' territory.

They hid behind dense leaves and began a long observation.

The behavior patterns of the deformed creatures were recorded one by one. Their activities seemed to have a fixed pattern. Some were fighting, some were taking care of their cubs, and some were performing some kind of ritual-like collective activities.

Gu Yang and the team members observed alternately, not missing any details.

As time went on, the team members began to try to analyze the meaning behind these behaviors and tried to build a social structure diagram of the deformed creatures.

"Look here, these deformed creatures seem to be surrounding an individual, which is larger than the others. This may be their leader or some kind of authority." A team member pointed to the camera screen and said.

"And these smaller deformed creatures, their behavior is more like they are on a mission, maybe guarding or searching for food." Another team member added.

Gu Yang nodded. Their findings were much richer than expected.

He decided that they needed more time to observe and analyze until they could uncover the mystery of the society of deformed creatures.

"Our exploration has just begun." Gu Yang took a deep breath and looked firmly at the distorted creatures' territory in the distance. "No matter how long and difficult this process is, we will not give up."

As the sun slowly sank, Gu Yang and his team continued their observation mission, full of curiosity about the unknown world and desire for knowledge.

On this mysterious continent, every discovery will be a testimony to their brave exploration.

As time passed, just as Gu Yang and his team were deeply observing the social structure of the distorted creatures, a chaotic noise suddenly came from not far away.

They quickly turned their eyes to the source of the sound, and saw a group of small, gray-white unknown creatures fighting fiercely with the distorted creatures.

These unknown creatures held crude weapons, moved agilely and powerfully, and the hand-to-hand combat with the distorted creatures was extremely fierce.

Gu Yang immediately realized that this battle might be a challenge to the distorted creatures' territory.

The team members nervously clenched their equipment in their hands, knowing that this battle could affect them at any time.

Gu Yang signaled the team members to stay hidden and not to expose their positions easily.

The battle intensified, and the leader-like individuals of the distorted creatures let out a deafening roar, leading their kind to launch a fierce counterattack against the unknown creatures.

Gu Yang observed through the telescope that there was a cunning light in the eyes of those unknown creatures. They did not seem to fight simply for territory, but had other purposes.

Gu Yang quickly analyzed the situation. He asked some team members to record every detail of the battle, while others were assigned to scout around to ensure that no other unknown creatures approached.

Just as Gu Yang was observing in depth, a team member quietly approached him and whispered that a camp of unknown creatures was found not far away. It seemed that they had been stationed in this area for some time.

Gu Yang frowned, and he realized that this battle was far more complicated than they expected.

He ordered the team members to withdraw to a safer location, while keeping monitoring the battle and not letting go of any possible intelligence.

As they were retreating, an injured distorted creature struggled to escape from the battlefield, with deep wounds on its body, and blood dyed the soil red.

Gu Yang was shocked when he saw this scene.

He immediately gave orders, asking several team members near the injured distorted creature to prepare to try to capture the distorted creature while ensuring safety.

Gu Yang knew that this might be an opportunity to establish contact with the distorted creature, and perhaps he could get more information about this race from the injured creature.

The team members acted quickly, and their cooperation was tacit and silent, and everyone knew their tasks.

Several team members carrying capture equipment carefully surrounded the injured distorted creature, while others set up guards around it just in case.

The injured distorted creature seemed to sense the danger, and it groaned in pain and tried to speed up, but its serious injuries made it slow.

The team members took advantage of this opportunity and approached from all directions, moving quickly and accurately.

One of the team members took out a special net bag, which was woven from tough synthetic fibers and was strong enough to withstand the struggle of the deformed creature.

He approached the side and rear of the deformed creature silently, and then threw the net bag suddenly, accurately covering the head and upper body of the deformed creature.

The deformed creature howled in fear and struggled instinctively, but the net bag restricted its movements more and more.

The other team members quickly stepped forward, comforting it while fixing its limbs and body with more capture belts.

Gu Yang watched the whole process nervously from the side. He knew that this was a dangerous attempt, but it was also necessary.

They needed this deformed creature to better understand this race and obtain more intelligence for their next exploration.

The capture work went surprisingly smoothly, and the injured deformed creature was soon completely subdued.

The team members carefully lifted it up and brought it to Gu Yang's side.

Gu Yang stepped forward to check it out. After confirming that the deformed creature was stable, he nodded to the team members and signaled that they could start evacuating.

As everyone slowly retreated, Gu Yang and his team members gradually relaxed their nervousness.

They knew that what they brought back was not just a wounded distorted creature, but also a valuable research material that might open a door to a new world for them.

As the team carefully evacuated and slowly moved with the wounded distorted creature, Gu Yang suddenly felt an ominous breath.

He turned his head suddenly and saw several distorted creatures separated from the battle with the enemy, looming in the bushes not far away, their eyes staring sharply at the direction of Gu Yang and his team.

Gu Yang's heart tightened, and he immediately used gestures to order the team members to speed up the evacuation speed and remain highly alert.

They knew that once they were caught up by these distorted creatures, they would face a tough battle.

The team members supported each other and tried to reduce the noise as much as possible, but the groaning of the wounded distorted creature seemed to attract the attention of their kind.

Several distorted creatures began to approach them, with heavy steps, and the trees shook under their push, making a rustling sound.

Gu Yang held the weapon in his hand tightly, with a firm look in his eyes. He knew that they had to prevent these distorted creatures from approaching, otherwise the entire team would be in danger.

A team member took out some small hidden weapons from his backpack and quickly threw them in the direction of the distorted creatures.

Suddenly, a series of sharp and piercing sounds tore through the void.

Accompanied by sharp sounds, the hidden weapons temporarily stopped the distorted creatures that were chasing them.

Taking this opportunity, Gu Yang led the team to rush to the preset safe route.

They passed through dense woods and stepped on the weedy trails, just to distance themselves from the pursuers as soon as possible.

However, the distorted creatures were huge and powerful. They quickly recovered from the obstruction and roared again, chasing Gu Yang and his team like beasts.

A scout in the team quickly climbed a tall tree and tried to observe the movements of the pursuers from a high place.

Through the leaves, he saw that several distorted creatures were dispersing, as if trying to surround them.

The investigator immediately reported the situation to Gu Yang. Gu Yang frowned. He knew that they had to take measures, otherwise they would be surrounded by the deformed creatures.

He quickly gave orders to split the team into two groups, one group was responsible for continuing to protect the injured distorted creatures and evacuate, and the other group was ready to fight with him.

Gu Yang selected several of the most agile team members. They took out the prepared traps and quickly set them up on possible routes, hoping to hinder the tracking distorted creatures while retreating.

Just as they finished setting up and were about to withdraw to the team, a huge distorted creature suddenly rushed out of a bush and rushed straight to Gu Yang.

Gu Yang instantly raised his weapon and stood side by side with the team members around him.

The roar of the distorted creatures was getting closer and closer, as if he could feel their hot and humid breath.

The team members followed Gu Yang's footsteps, and everyone's eyes flashed with a resolute light.

"Prepare for battle!" Gu Yang's voice sounded in the team, firm and powerful.

The team members responded immediately. They dispersed and found favorable positions, holding their weapons tightly, ready to meet the impact of the distorted creatures.

The vanguard of the distorted creatures had already rushed to the front, and their eyes were full of wild light, as if they had seen their prey.

But Gu Yang and his team were not easy prey. They were experienced explorers and warriors who survived danger.

Gu Yang rushed forward first, and his long knife drew beautiful arcs in the air, accurately stabbing the vital points of the distorted creatures.

The distorted creature roared in pain, but its attack did not stop.

The team members were not to be outdone. They used the terrain and traps to cleverly contain the distorted creatures, making it impossible for them to form an effective offensive.

A team member waved a spear and picked up a distorted creature that was about to pounce on Gu Yang, protecting the captain's safety.

The battle was fierce and short. Although the distorted creatures were ferocious, they were ultimately defeated by Gu Yang and his tacit cooperation and superb skills.

In just a moment, Gu Yang and others stopped these distorted creatures and led them to the preset trap area.

Just as the distorted creatures were about to touch the trap, a loud noise came, and the forelimbs of multiple distorted creatures fell into deep pits.

Gu Yang did not hesitate at all, and immediately withdrew from the battle with the distorted creatures, leading the team members to seize the time to continue retreating.

Their pace became faster, without any delay, and in just a moment they completely left the group of distorted creatures behind and returned to a safe area. (End of this chapter)
