Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree
Chapter 20 Investigation
In the video, you can see the iron manhole covers weighing tens of kilograms, flying straight into the sky like cannons with a loud bang.
The height instantly exceeded the houses on both sides of the street, and it flew to about ten stories high. Only when the momentum was exhausted, it fell down, leaving a big hole in the hard cement pavement of the street.
"Is this... someone placing explosives in the sewer?" the young police officer murmured in a low voice.
This was the only explanation he could think of.
Xiao Hua watched the video silently, then walked to a manhole cover, squatted down and took a look.
There were no signs of being bombed. On the contrary, there was a fairly obvious dent mark on the manhole cover.
"It's not an explosive, it was directly pushed up by some mutant creature." When he came to this conclusion, Xiao Hua only felt that his throat was a little dry.
The young police officer opened his mouth, and finally said with difficulty: "How is this possible! It would require at least a ton of impact force to achieve this scene!"
"They are at least among the top 50 mutant creatures on the dangerous list! They are so huge, how could they come to our urban area quietly?"
Xiao Hua's expression was solemn as never before, "I don't know, so I told the brothers of the City Guard and asked them to go to the sewers to investigate. Remember to bring heavy firepower weapons."
"Yes, sir." The young policeman left in a hurry.
It didn't take long for two elite teams from the City Guard to rush here in a hurry.
"Deputy Director Xiao Hua, is the information you gave us accurate?" a middle-aged man in the lead asked in a deep voice.
His name is Li Yongming, and he is one of the two captains who came to support.
"There is a video here, Captain Li, take a look." Xiao Hua didn't say anything, directly handed over the instrument in his hand, and clicked on the video.
In just a moment, Li Yongming's expression became more serious than ever.
"This is at least a dangerous level three mutated creature, and it can come here quietly in the city, which proves that the opponent also has terrifying latent abilities."
Li Yongming took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and said seriously: "I'm afraid we are in big trouble."
Such a terrifying mutated creature is hidden in the city. If it cannot be eliminated in time, it will be like a time bomb. No one knows when it will be detonated.
At that time, you may not be so lucky and just cause riots in a few streets.
"I will personally lead the team down to take a look." Li Yongming finally made the decision.
"Captain Li, this is too dangerous. Is there anything wrong with you going down in person?" Xiao Hua asked in surprise.
"Who is not in danger if he goes down? As the captain, I should take the lead." Li Yongming waved his hand.
Then he looked at a member next to him and said, "Xiao Liu, send a message to the headquarters and send me two armed helicopters, the ones equipped with ground-penetrating bombs."
"It's the captain." The city guard member said quickly.
Soon Li Yongming led two elite teams and entered the sewer along an open manhole cover.
"It's too quiet." As soon as Li Yongming entered the sewer, he noticed something was wrong.
It's not that he has never entered the city's sewers before. It can be said that this is the territory of rats, cockroaches, flies, mosquitoes, and these mutated creatures.
Basically, after entering, there will be such creatures everywhere, and the probability of a direct fight is very high.
Now, although the environment in the sewer is the same as before, with sewage flowing across the water and the stench raging, not a single living thing can be seen.
"Be careful and maintain the defensive formation." Li Yongming turned on the portable lighting equipment on his body, raised his gun, and walked forward.
The rest of the team members quickly followed.
However, the more they walked, the more surprised they became, because they couldn't see even a single mutant creature along the way.
"Captain, is it because of the residual aura?" a member asked in a low voice.
"Well! All animals have territorial awareness. After their mutation, this aspect has not changed, and they have even become more terrifying."
"According to our research, some powerful creatures can even directly emit intimidation and make other mutated creatures surrender." Li Yongming explained while walking forward.
Soon, he stopped and touched the wall beside him.
The cement board here has an obvious scratch mark.
"Generally, creatures scratch, and most of what's left are scratches, but why is it so smooth here?" He gently touched the cement board, as if it had been polished and polished again.
Unfortunately, no one could solve this puzzle for him, so he could only continue to lead the team forward cautiously.
Not long after, he arrived at the first place he was looking for.
Since the officials knew about the threat of mutant rats, how could they not make any preparations?
As early as the previous few times, during the process of "eliminating the four pests", they installed monitoring equipment in some hidden places in the sewers.
"Captain, the barbed wire fence has been bitten open, and the monitoring equipment inside has been damaged." A technician quickly squatted down and checked, and said with some frustration.
"Is the memory card damaged?" Li Yongming asked.
"There is no damage, but the problem is that this monitoring equipment has stopped working for a long time. The most recent records that can be found are all from a month ago." The team member said helplessly.
"It's okay. Let's go to the next location. There is a camouflage recorder there. It should not be damaged." Li Yongming glanced at the map on his phone and said.
It was a sewer map with the locations of all the equipment marked.
The team continued to move forward without encountering any danger, or rather calmly, and arrived at the place where the recorder was hidden.
This hidden recorder is similar to an ordinary cement board, mounted directly on the wall. The only difference is the three inconspicuous pinhole cameras.
Even the color of the pinhole camera is camouflaged. If you don't look carefully, you won't notice it at all.
As expected, the recorder was not damaged in any way.
Li Yongming had a smile on his face and immediately asked the technicians in the team to open the equipment connection device.
But as he looked closer, the smile on his face froze.
Because the positions of the three pinhole cameras are all covered with unknown black adhesions, completely covering the cameras.
With the last glimmer of hope in his heart, he asked the technician to connect the recorder and retrieve the surveillance video from his mobile phone.
But unsurprisingly it was pitch black.
"Let's go to the next place." He took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and said in a deep voice.
Next, they went to five more places where surveillance equipment was installed. Without exception, all were destroyed.
It wasn't until I came to the next street that I found a surveillance device that was not damaged and the camera was not blocked.
"Export the video quickly." Li Yongming said excitedly to the members who were operating.
