All sorts of curses rose and fell, resounding non-stop.
A group of people blocked the entrance and were making a racket. Their voices spread far and wide.
Seeing this, Gu Bo stopped the truck and waited for an outcome.
Since the people at the power plant were not anxious, he was even less anxious.
Su Jingxing leaned against the window and listened for a while, figuring out the cause of the commotion.
A young employee named Yan Xiyu suddenly died.
The cause of death was a huge force striking the chest, causing the entire heart to collapse.
But the murderer could not be found.
Naturally, the person-in-charge in the power plant was eager to have the corpse collected and cremated as soon as possible.
The compensation and whatnot could be slowly calculated afterwards.
But Yan Xiyu was very popular, especially when he had taken over his late father’s duties. Many of the workers at the power plant were his father’s old friends.
After Yan Xiyu’s father passed away, these people took care of him in all aspects.
Now that Yan Xiyu had suddenly died, they had to pursue the matter to the end no matter what. They joined hands to force the power plant to find the murderer.
As for the group of people who were arguing with them, their relationship was ordinary.
Compared to finding the murderer, they were more afraid of Yan Xiyu’s corpse suddenly turning into a Corpse Puppet.
Because of this, they worked hard to stand by the power plant and to push for the corpse to be dealt with as soon as possible.
The two groups of people quarreled non-stop. The manager in charge shouted until his voice was hoarse from the side, but it was useless.
Yet the transport trucks that were transporting the garbage arrived one after another and stopped behind the corpse transportation truck.
The pungent smell spread out in all directions.
Su Jingxing simply held his breath and stopped breathing.
Gu Bo took out a mask and put it on. He was so angry that he jammed the horn.
The transport trucks behind also honked loudly.
It couldn’t be helped, even the drivers found it smelly too!
Under the pressure of the loud horns, the two groups of people finally stopped and made way.
Of course, Su Jingxing was more willing to believe that they had called a truce because they couldn’t stand the increasingly pungent smell.
The stench at the garbage power plant was strong to begin with, not to mention a row of transport trucks filled with garbage parked together.
It could be said that the smell was unconquerable.
…
Without any obstructions, the corpse transportation truck and transport vehicles quickly entered the gate.
After entering, they separated.
The corpse transportation truck went straight to the where the corpse was left, at the corner of a warehouse.
When Yan Xiyu’s body was discovered, he was collapsed in a corner with his back pressed against the wall. There was a dent in the wall, and the edges were full of cracks.
Su Jingxing got out of the truck and quickly scanned the scene. He found a lot of mucus on the ground.
There were traces of mucus in the corners and on the cement ground…
Although it wasn’t much and not quite conspicuous, Su Jingxing could tell at one glance that there was something wrong with the mucus.
“The murderer is not human?”
Su Jingxing’s heart skipped a beat.
This thought sprouted because the mucus left behind on the scene was very much like the secretion of some animal.
This secretion didn’t smell that bad, or perhaps, the stench was being masked by the smell in the garbage power plant!
“What’s the matter, Little Su?”
Gu Bo’s voice came from the side. Su Jingxing came back to his senses and shook his head. “Nothing. I just feel that this deceased died quite tragically.”
“Indeed,” Gu Bo said coolly without batting an eyelid. “I’ve seen many worse than this.”
Su Jingxing was speechless.
Alright, Team Leader Gu was right.
As a corpse collector, the numbers of corpses he has seen in tragic states must be countless.
Su Jingxing put on gloves and cooperated with Gu Bo. They put Yan Xiyu’s body into a body bag and put it in the back of the truck.
Then they closed the door and prepared to leave.
Boom!
Right then, a loud bang was heard from the area ahead on the right.
Accompanied by the horrified screams of the power plant staff and…
The roars of Mutated Beasts!
“Ah! There’s a monster!”
“Run, run!”
“Get lost! Get lost!”
“Roar!”
A low, ear-piercing roar rang out, releasing a terrifying sound wave that swept out in all directions with the factory as the center.
Everywhere it passed, the people who were running were all screaming in pain. They were kneeling on the ground, hugging their heads and covering their ears as they shrieked endlessly.
Electronic equipment exploded one after another, releasing sparks and electric arcs.
The electric generator in operation stopped working on the spot, shooting out countless electric currents.
Swish! Swish!
Boom boom boom!
Bang!
Muffled explosions resounded non-stop, even turning into violent explosions.
A frightening shockwave swept through most of the power plant.
Gu Bo, who was half-kneeling on the ground and covering his ears, was sent flying by the shockwave right under Su Jingxing’s eyes. He crashed into the corpse transportation truck and fainted on the spot.
People who ended up like him were everywhere.
For a time, Su Jingxing was the only one who was not affected in the huge power plant.
He released his true energy to form a protective barrier around himself.
Looking at the broken cameras, Su Jingxing decisively dashed to a corner, took out his mask and cloak, and quickly put them on. Then, he brought out his treasure throwing daggers. Following the direction of the roars, he soared into the sky.
Crack! Crack!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Boom!
Sparks flew and electric arcs shot out. Loud noises could be heard from time to time.
Su Jingxing, who had leaped into the air, saw the power plant’s buildings collapse at the first moment.
A silvery-white snake that was as thick as a water bucket rapidly shuttled through the ruins, spitting out electric arcs.
No, it wasn’t a snake, it was an earthworm!
A silvery-white earthworm that was more than ten meters long and as thick as a water bucket opened its toothless mouth. It was crazily devouring the electric arcs in every corner and in the air.
An earthworm that ate electricity, a mutated earthworm beast!
Earthworms were invertebrates. It had become a Mutated Beast, not because of the infection by the Beast Spirit Devil Insect.
Rather, it was a natural evolution that came suddenly!
To be honest, Su Jingxing was a little surprised when he saw the big guy.
A mutated earthworm that devoured electric arcs, did it mean that it had stored a lot of electricity in its body?
Thunderbolt, the spirit weapon that had finally recovered, was lacking the supplement of electricity.
Wasn’t the appearance of this mutated earthworm giving him a large “battery” for free?
That’s right. In Su Jingxing’s eyes, the mutated earthworm that was now roaming on the ground was a “battery” !
No matter how it turned into a Mutated Beast, why it rushed out of the ground, destroyed the power plant, and absorbed the electric arcs,
Su Jingxing was bent on having it!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
His treasure throwing daggers tore through the air and flew towards the mutated earthworm at once, hitting the enormous body that flashed with electric arcs.
In the end——
Bang bang bang!
With muffled sounds, the three throwing daggers were repelled. At the same time, a series of sparks bloomed, and under the stimulation of the electric arcs, another explosion occurred.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
“Interesting.”
In midair, Su Jingxing saw this scene and decisively switch to use fist techniques.
He circulated 60 years of true energy cultivation. Locking onto the mutated earthworm that had stopped moving and had raised its ugly head, he punched down!
