Chapter 229: Creepers
——
Two hours later.
——
"What exactly happened?"
Kurosawa didn't waste time chatting with others and got straight to the point.
The information he received on the phone was that a high-level elf appeared in the city center and destroyed a section of road and surrounding shops.
He wasn't very clear about what would happen next.
There was no elf that was the cause of the disaster at the moment, so he could only obtain information through other descriptions.
Looking at the ruined streets, the armed special police and several ambulances under martial law, Kurosawa felt heavy in his heart, and the expression on his face unconsciously became serious.
Seeing Kurosawa, the director in charge wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Kurosawa's arrival really relieved his anxiety.
No one knows how the situation will develop in the future. All the public security personnel and the temporarily transferred elf masters are working under tremendous pressure.
The professional elf masters at the scene did not dare to explore the surrounding area too much, but were on guard at the scene.
The combat power of intermediate elves is far different from that of high-level elves.
Although they don't know that Kurosawa has been promoted to the elite, Kurosawa has shown his combat prowess at the advanced stage after all, and they can only rely on him now.
"The one doing the damage is a grotesquely awakened creeper."
As soon as the director opened his mouth, Kurosawa's eyebrows subconsciously frowned more tightly, and the influence and information about the creepers came to his mind.
As his spiritual power increases, his memory becomes better and better, and he can retrieve information in his mind at any time.
Creepers are a three-star race.
Their inferior race is the two-star tomb worm or tomb maggot.
The creeper is the pinnacle creature of this line of elves, and no further evolution possibilities have been discovered yet.
It doesn't sound like a powerful elf clan.
But creepers are a very dangerous type of elf to humans.
They are often born in cemeteries, mass graves or in the bodies of highly intelligent animals. The wandering Yin Qi and unconscious thoughts are the natural breeding ground for the birth of grave worms.
The maggots crawling out of the tombstones will eat and bite the surrounding corpses. At that time, a kind of terrifying life may emerge at the right time. Born from the rotting corpses, they absorb nutrients and their dull consciousness becomes cunning.
Insidious, thousands of maggots eventually formed a new evil spirit, the creeper.
Creepers usually take on a human form and use rag robes to cover their bodies and disguise themselves as humans.
They have the ability to confuse minds, clone themselves, communicate with each other, and devour corpses to replenish their remains.
Once it encounters a strong enemy, the creeper will disperse at an extremely fast speed and break into countless, densely packed maggots to escape. Therefore, it has extremely strong vitality. Conventional attacks can only kill some of the bugs and are not fatal.
Once they are allowed to escape, they quickly gather together to re-form and replenish dead individuals through rapid reproduction.
If you want to completely kill the creepers, you must either use strong flames to destroy them all, or accurately find the core individual among countless maggots.
"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains and Winds"
"We have cordoned off surrounding residential areas, and it is still unclear where the creeper is hiding," the director added.
Uneasiness was written on his face.
Creepers have a desire to devour corpses, especially highly intelligent creatures, including humans.
That kind of weird individual formed by countless wriggling maggots can make people shudder with horror just by looking at it.
"What was the last direction that witnesses saw it leaving?" Kurosawa interrupted the director who was about to continue explaining.
The director's words stuck in his mouth and he was stunned for a moment.
"Champion Kurosawa, why don't we wait for Commander Lu from the execution department to come and talk about it? I'll help you sit on the scene for us." He showed an awkward smile.
Obviously, rather than letting Kurosawa take action, he trusted Lu Dawei, who had been famous for a long time.
He is the head of the execution department and has a veteran elite level of combat power.
If the creeper is not handled well, alerting the enemy will become a problem in his opinion. It is better to maintain the status quo. Kurosawa only needs to prevent further troubles on the scene.
Kurosawa glanced at his angry face, and his keen mind quickly captured the other person's thoughts.
He shook his head in disbelief.
If he were an ordinary high-level elf and there was no further destruction, he might not be able to save himself more trouble than more trouble, but the creepers were too harmful to ordinary people and he couldn't let them go.
The Director, who had already known his fate, was stared at by his unruffled eyes, and he felt great pressure in an instant.
"Thump thump!" His heart was beating violently, as if he was being targeted by some terrifying beast in human skin, and big beads of sweat were dripping down his face.
"Grrrr--" He swallowed, stretched out his hand and pointed tremblingly in one direction.
"Going there."
"Very good, thank you for your cooperation." Kurosawa withdrew his gaze and his expression softened again.
He turned around, pointed his toes, and the toes that exerted force in the light maneuver burst out with amazing force, and his body shot forward like a strong wind.
It wasn't until his figure disappeared from the spot that everyone around him who didn't dare to take a breath breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's scary."
"I almost couldn't breathe just now."
"Didn't you say that he is only at the professional level? Why are there so many differences between the others?"
The armed personnel breathed a long sigh of relief, pursed their lips and looked at the two professional-level people passing by in the distance.
"There is indeed a reason to be famous."
...
Kurosawa's body ran between buildings.
At the end of an alley, he noticed a set of clothes that had fallen off, as if a person had disappeared out of thin air.
He knelt down and touched the floor.
He took out his flashlight and took a photo of it on a slightly smooth ground. Under the strong light of the flashlight, a white trail of dried mucus appeared on the floor. It was very hidden. If it weren't for his extraordinary eyesight, it would be difficult for ordinary people to spot it. .
The creeper ran here and lost a small part of its body in the explosion caused by the car, so it devoured a man and then continued over the wall.
Kurosawa deduced its behavior and direction along the way in his mind.
The more information he collects, the clearer his perception of the forces of nature becomes.
Kurosawa carefully wiped the mucus on the ground, then put it next to his nose and sniffed.
He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, a white trail appeared in the air!
——
Two hours later.
——
At this moment, the band-like perception within a distance of two hundred meters in front of him appeared in his mind. People, cars, and the energy floating in the air were all very clear.
Although I didn't get the information I wanted, the restless energy in the air did say something.
More than a hundred meters ahead, uniformed traffic policemen dismounted from their cavalry and blocked the road ahead.
Elf anomaly?
Kurosawa tilted his head, a trace of doubt flashing across his face. This kind of incident was not common in the city center. The tasks he used to handle were usually located in the suburbs on the edge of the city.
And, it's too slow...
Kurosawa looked in a certain direction and frowned subconsciously.
Tao Shuling turned her head and noticed the change in his face. His face, which was originally like a spring breeze, suddenly became serious. She couldn't help but shudder, and a coldness like ice and snow hit her face.
What's wrong?
She was a little uneasy.
He wanted to ask, but seeing Kurosawa looking thoughtful, he hesitated for a moment and still didn't dare to ask.
Not long after, there was a vibration in Kurosawa's pocket.
He took out his mobile phone and saw a phone number with special notes displayed on the screen. He immediately chose to connect.
"Um."
"learn."
Kurosawa answered the call, answered twice and then hung up.
Until this time, Kurosawa's father, who was still discussing the road conditions ahead with his uncle, also realized something. The voice of the conversation gradually dropped, and he turned around and looked at Kurosawa.
"Dad, please wait here for a moment. I'll get out of the car first. I have something to do at the moment. Someone should come to evacuate you later."
Now the whole road is blocked, and it's impossible to turn around and leave, but there will definitely be traffic police coming to disperse the crowd later.
After the call was connected, the staff member on the other end of the phone gave Kurosawa a rough idea of what was happening ahead and the specific situation in just a few words.
"It doesn't matter, right?" Kurosawa's father asked with concern.
"It's a small thing, don't worry." Kurosawa said calmly.
After saying this, he opened the door and stepped out of the car.
At the same time, his right hand threw out a card without leaving any trace.
There was a flash of light, and the Dream Demon quietly hid in the car, and at the same time the Crow User came out.
The psychic power conveyed the instructions, and the dream demon immediately understood the task Kurosawa had given him.
Follow the vehicle and act as a bodyguard.
The attributes and abilities of Dream Demons and Crow Envoys allow them to evacuate with a few people faster when encountering a crisis.
"Dad, you go home first, I will be there soon."
"Okay, then be careful yourself."
After Kurosawa finished speaking, he stood up on his tiptoes, and the next moment his body shot out like an arrow from the string.
Soon he was speeding through the traffic.
Even without relying on the Dream Demon to enter the [Ghost Transformation] state, his own superhuman physical fitness is enough for him to burst out with terrifying speed.
He moved as fast as a phantom, causing the uninformed drivers to scream.
"What is it? Did you see it?"
"It seems like a person?"
"Are you kidding? How can someone run so fast!"
The wind flowed along the soft muscle lines and textures. Kurosawa's strong and powerful body continued to burst out at an amazing speed. The strong core strength was transported along the spine to the thighs, calf muscles, ankles and finally condensed to the front of the soles of the feet.
His movements seemed to have a small arc, but they were as fast and powerful as shrinking to an inch.
This skill did not come to him out of nowhere.
Instead, they are new products drawn from the number of prayers in the exchange shop in November in the Shabu world.
A body technique called [Light Maneuvering Technique].
It sounds like martial arts, but in fact it does not involve the existence of internal energy or internal strength. It is just a force-generating technique to better control the strength of the whole body so that the power does not escape and is concentrated on the toes.
Tips for improving speed.
The reason why he has such a miraculous effect is purely because of his extraordinary physical fitness.
Even if he doesn't use body skills and relies on instinctive brute force, he can't slow down his running speed. [Light Manipulation Technique] can only be regarded as the icing on the cake. Ordinary people practicing this technique will not only fail to increase their speed, but will be like hd learning to walk.
Also forgetting your own running method will have the opposite effect.
Kurosawa spent 500 points to purchase the light manipulation surgery, and he automatically mastered the various techniques within it. After a little practice, he quickly became proficient.
Overall, Kurosawa is very satisfied with the Light Manipulation Technique, and it can be regarded as the best product that Kurosawa has obtained by praying in the exchange store.
Its existence does not conflict with [ghost transformation] or even the super strong physical state of Zeus.
The reason why the latter two can enhance speed or explosive power relies more on the power of the elves in the body, while the light manipulation technique is a technique of exerting force on his personal body, which means that he is the same in the ghost state or the Zeus state.
Can activate light manipulation to further increase speed.
Moreover, it can also allow Kurosawa to gain faster mobility under extreme conditions without the presence of elves.
Kurosawa was running fast, recalling the details of the phone call he received in his mind.
It was indeed an abnormal elf incident. It happened very suddenly. Wei Ting, who is the minister of the alliance, was not in the base today. When the staff of the information department of the Haitang Alliance were worried, they suddenly discovered that Kurosawa was near the scene. Therefore, there was the one who was there not long ago.
Telephone.
Although it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, in Haitang City where Wei Ting was not around, there was not much power that could resist a rampaging high-level elf.
As for other elites arriving at the scene, it will take some time.
Kurosawa slowed down before reaching the blockade.
"This happened very strangely."
"Have you contacted the director of the road base?"
"On the way here."
"..."
In the distance, Kurosawa could hear several middle-aged leaders who were in charge of sealing off the scene discussing.
It sounds like they haven't received any news about Kurosawa yet.
But it's also possible that he rushed here immediately after receiving the call without any hesitation.
"Sorry, the road ahead is blocked, please do not continue moving forward."
Kurosawa, who was walking quickly, was stopped by armed men armed with live ammunition.
Kurosawa quickly pulled down his mask, revealing a face that was well-known in Haitang City.
"I am Kurosawa, take me to your leader."
Kurosawa said simply and neatly.
It was obviously impossible to understand the details of the scene with just one phone call. Kurosawa needed to find out more about the details.
He looked forward through the blockade.
The highways and streets were in a mess. A circular crater-like horrifying destruction appeared in the middle of the road. Several cars overturned. There were signs of burning on the streets and shops, but the flames seemed to have been extinguished.
It is indeed the handiwork of a high-level elf.
The destructive power of supernatural creatures with attribute cores is evident. Without opponents of the same level to block them, the reinforced concrete urban forest may seem hard but is actually as brittle as tissue paper.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, the casualties should not be large, Kurosawa did not smell a strong smell of blood, and the people nearby should have been evacuated to the nearest underground civil air defense project in an orderly manner.
But what about the eucalyptus elf? Could it be that he escaped?
Kurosawa needs to ask people present to draw further conclusions.
"yes!"
"Please come with me!"
The armed man saw clearly the face of the man in front of him after he had pulled down his mask. He was visibly sluggish for a moment, but he soon reacted, with surprise and surprise on his face.
He quickly trotted ahead, leading Kurosawa through the layers of roadblocks.
Chapter completed!
