Chapter 780 The Origin of Fear - Mysterious Savage

The Ring Fortress of the Spear Bureau.

Director Zheng Xian was sitting in the combat command room at this time, listening to reports from his subordinates.

After the Three Emperors team retreated, the giants of Shennongjia were handed over to an army, but the situation on the scene did not improve.

These giants appear to be made of flesh and blood, but in fact each one is equivalent to a chariot. Ordinary firearms cannot penetrate their skin at all, and only large-caliber firearms can cause some damage.

In order to harm these giants, artillery shells or missiles are required, but the terrain of Shennongjia makes it impossible to transport tanks in. If the giants continue to hide in Shennongjia, the military really has no way to deal with them.

Just when the military thought that these giants would hide in Shennongjia and fight a protracted war, these giants unexpectedly came out of Shennongjia beyond their expectations.

The army, which had never relaxed, fought against the giants, and the result was shocking. The army was defeated by only ten giants. This was even after they listened to the advice of the Spear Bureau and deployed heavy firepower.

If we had followed the standards set at the beginning and just gone into battle lightly, I can’t imagine what kind of defeat we would have suffered, and it’s not impossible that we would have been completely wiped out.

After seeing the giants' powerful fighting ability and based on the data brought back by the Three Emperors team, and thinking that hundreds of giants were hiding in Shennongjia, they immediately decided to wipe out all the giants even if they had to abandon the entire Shennongjia.

So several fighter jets were sent to Shennongjia, carrying missiles of sufficient power, intending to wipe out all the giants at once.

However, this confident attack resulted in the news that all the giants had disappeared. According to the news sent back by the fighter pilots, they flew over the entire Shennongjia but could not find a single giant in the sky.

Some people thought that this was because the giants were hiding, but this was denied. A giant hiding in Shennongjia might not be easily discovered, but there were hundreds of giants, and each one was about five meters tall.

Even Shennongjia couldn't hide such a large group of creatures.

At this time, someone put forward a guess that it was because these giants used some magic to hide themselves, which led to the pilots' failure to discover them.

After all, things like magic and witchcraft are very mysterious to modern humans. Even within the Bureau of Spear, there are not many people who possess the relevant skills, so this conjecture was agreed by most people as soon as it was put forward.

But just as everyone was discussing, the group of disappeared giants actually appeared in the city.

Everyone then realized that the group of giants did not use any hiding magic, but used teleportation magic to transfer the large army away from Shennongjia.

Helplessly, everyone had no choice but to follow the giant, mobilizing the army and evacuating the people. Of course, because they were in the downtown area, weapons of mass destruction could not be used.

Zheng Xian's face was solemn. He remembered that Ji Shuangshuang had reported to him when she came back that the leader of the giants had picked up a sky hammer. The purpose of his raid on Shennongjia this time was to rescue the sky hammer under their protection.

Now that the giants have left Shennongjia, does this mean that the Sky Hammer has found a user?
...

"hu~hu~"

In the snow-covered Shennongjia jungle, a figure darted back and forth between the trees. It wasn't particularly fast, but it knew how to use the trees to conceal itself, hiding in the shadows almost every time it moved. Like a wild animal, it was difficult to detect.

Finally, Shadow stopped after climbing up an ancient tree. He stretched out his sharp claws and inserted them into the trunk to stabilize his body. What was surprising was that although Shadow's size was not exaggerated, the tree supporting him made a mournful cry as if it could not bear the weight.

You have to know that this is an ancient tree that can only be hugged by one person. I guess even a sedan can support it. I don’t know where this little guy gets the weight.

The figure wanted to check if someone in the distance was awake, so he stuck his head out, exposing half of his face to the sunlight, revealing half of his ferocious face and hair that stood up like animal ears.

Such a strange hairstyle combined with the man's face makes him look like a wolverine hiding in the bushes.

Seeing the giants setting up camp in the distance, the man gritted his teeth and lowered his head to think of a solution, but he had been away from human society for too long, and his brain usually only performed simple activities. Now that he was suddenly asked to think of a solution, he really couldn't think of any effective method.

After all, he usually only had to deal with wild animals, and at most avoided some humans who wanted to take pictures of wild people, so he didn't have to use his brain much at all.

If there had been any loud noise in the forest in the past, he would have definitely hidden himself away, but today, for some reason, he always heard a voice in his heart.

This sound was heard after the meteor fell last night. The man had always lived deep in the forest, and since he was not fast on his feet, it took him a long time to reach the place where the meteor fell.

As soon as he arrived, he saw a group of neatly dressed people who looked like an army. They were protecting the place where the meteor fell. The man had no way to break in, so he had no choice but to retreat and prepare for a long-term plan.

Unexpectedly, less than half a day later, another loud noise was heard from the direction of the meteor. This time, the soldiers disappeared, leaving behind a group of exaggeratedly large creatures, which were the giants in front of them.

The man was in a dilemma. If possible, he really didn't want to contact other people, but the voice in his heart kept urging him.

The voice told him that as long as he came into contact with the meteor, all his previous confusions would be answered, and he would no longer have to hide like he did now.

"Giant shouldn't be considered an ordinary human."

With this thought in mind, the man retracted the claws that were stabbed horizontally into the tree, and before falling, he inserted the claws vertically and let his weight pull himself to the ground.

With the help of his claws, the man landed safely with only a small sound. After he retracted his claws, the originally integrated tree trunk suddenly split into four parts and began to collapse.

The cut surface of the tree trunk was very smooth, which showed that the man's claws were sharper than one could imagine.

Next, the man slowed down his pace and came to the bushes not far from the giant's camp and hid there. Although he had made the decision, he certainly could not rush in like a real beast.

These giants are not just for show. A man is confident that he can fight one or two of them head-on, but there are hundreds of them here, so it is better to sneak around.
