Chapter 20: Bloodthirsty Locust
Chapter 20 Bloodthirsty Locust
Superintendent Xingwu, high-level conference room.
There were dozens of guards standing guard on both sides of the corridor outside the door.
They all had serious faces, and together they were guarding this special meeting.
Tap Ta Ta!
At this time, with the sound of steady footsteps, the superintendent appeared at the end of the corridor and slowly came to the door of the conference room.
When the guard stationed at the door saw this, he immediately stepped forward and said respectfully in a deep voice:
“The commander, the owner of the hall, and the dean of the martial arts academy have all arrived and are waiting for you in the house!”
“Well, continue to maintain security outside the house, don’t make any omissions.”
The commander nodded slightly, then opened the door and walked into the room.
I saw an empty room, clean and bright.
The walls were specially installed with soundproof glass to block out all outside monitoring.
At this moment, the dean of the Martial Arts Academy and the librarian of Jianghai City Library were standing in front of the conference table, their faces as solemn as water.
Other than that, there are no other senior leaders.
On the conference table in front of them, there was a tiny bloodthirsty locust.
The articulated body is squirming and is being held by the reinforced tempered glass and sealed in the bottle.
Dark red juice splashed from the locust's mouthparts and stained the glass.
Even though the escape path was blocked, the leech was still trying to curl up and eject, hitting the bottle crazily, and it looked very scary.
It seems as if the next moment I will break away from the bottle and successfully escape from the outside world!
“Commander, why did you come to us urgently?”
Seeing the commander enter the room, the librarian stepped forward and asked.
Not so long ago.
He and the dean received the invitation from the commander.
Let them come to Superintendent Xingwu's conference room urgently.
But the phone call did not explain the cause of the matter, only saying something related to the bloodthirsty demon.
So the dean and the museum owner realized that the matter was of great importance, so they didn’t say anything more and rushed to Superintendent Xingwu directly.
This is why this special meeting took place.
“It’s weird, the smell of this locust is not quite right…”
Mr. Li, the oldest, stroked his white beard, looked at the huddled locust in the bottle, and said seriously: "The accumulation of blood in this locust is extremely deep, it is not an ordinary insect."
“As expected of Mr. Li, he is indeed well-informed, and he quickly noticed the strangeness of this alien insect.”
The commander heard the words and admired them. He came to the conference table, put his palm on the bottle, and slowly explained:
"After several days of investigation by our Superintendent Xingwu, we finally found some clues about the bloodthirsty monster."
As soon as he finished speaking, the owner frowned slightly and said with a puzzled look on his face:
“Huh? What do you mean by commanding you?”
"Hasn't the bloodthirsty monster been beheaded by you? Is it possible that there are others left?"
Lao Li on the side also showed the same confusion when he heard this.
But he made no sound.
Just patiently waiting for the commander’s answer.
"Don't worry, you two. In order to investigate the source of the bugs these days, our superintendent has specially blocked the news. It's normal that you don't know."
The commander explained apologetically: "Actually, this bloodthirsty monster...is not just one person, these guys commit crimes in a gang."
"What?!"
“Is there still such a thing?”
As the commander finished speaking, both the owner and the dean were shocked.
I am very surprised by this news!
After all, the bloodthirsty monsters have caused panic in Jianghai City these days, and have had a great impact on the library and the martial arts academy.
As the persons in charge of these two offices, they also felt very stressed.
It finally calmed down, but I didn’t expect that the storm has not stopped yet!
“I’m really sorry, you two... The matter is urgent. In order not to cause panic among the people, we can only block the news for the time being, and then secretly send additional police to search.
After several days of searching, we finally caught this zerg. "
As he said that, the commander pointed to the leech in the bottle and said: "Our superintendent has done a lot of research, but there is not much progress, so I can only ask you two to cooperate and help Shuoyuan find the zerg." source."
"I see..." Hearing this, Mr. Li was relieved, "These bloodthirsty demons are endangering the citizens. Commander, you can rest assured. Old man, I will assist you in the investigation.
“As a member of Jianghai City, I am willing to do my best!”
The owner of the museum also nodded.
“It’s time to help you two.”
After receiving the agreement, the commander breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the host and said:
“Master, you have read countless books. Do you have any relevant information about the origin of this Zerg?”
“This...let me think about it carefully.”
The museum owner lowered his head and thought for a moment.
But after a while, he shook his head helplessly: "I have no impression. This is really the first time I have seen this zerg."
Seeing this, the commander nodded and said nothing more, but then looked at Mr. Li.
Old Li shook his head and sighed: "Old man, I don't have much impression of this worm, but I can vaguely figure out its ability... This worm should be just a clone."
“Clone?”
The commander was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
"Yes, I have seen this kind of insect before. The whereabouts of this kind of cloned insect are unpredictable, but if you want to track the original body, the old man has a good way."
With that said, Mr. Li took out a bag of packages, looked at the worm in the bottle, and said, "With this soul-chasing incense powder, we can easily find the zerg's body."
As soon as he finished speaking, the commander's eyes lit up and he immediately clapped his hands and applauded.
"Okay, just do it your way. Once you catch the insect itself, the bloodthirsty demonic insect will never be able to escape!"
….
at the same time.
Jianghai City, Lishui Lake.
The willow trees on the shore swayed in the wind, and there were many tourists and laughter.
You can see some families out for fun and having dinners around the wide lake.
This is the largest lake in Jianghai, which is famous far and wide. People play and play by the lake every day.
However, what no one paid attention to was.
It is in the deepest part of the lake.
There is actually a dark and hidden cave hidden in it, with a strange red light leaking out, which looks very scary.
If you continue to go deeper into the cave.
You can see a giant leech nearly five meters long lingering on the rugged gravel!
Poof!
It swallows the water around it and guides a huge amount of fluid to form a vortex.
Any school of fish that passes by it, even if it is far away, will be instantly sucked into its belly and devoured as soon as it enters the scope of the whirlpool.
Not even a drop of blood was spilled.
at this time.
Several dark figures swam from the water,
Those were several dark-skinned locusts, which quickly integrated into the huge body with the blood and essence they had just absorbed.
next moment.
With the integration of essence and blood, the range of the vortex controlled by the locust has once again expanded by several meters.
Stirring the water at the bottom of the lake, attracting more fish to absorb and pour into the body!
“Not enough…still thirsty…need more…blood…”
The stumbling words spat out from the mouth of the locust, cold and ruthless.
It seems as if someone has begun to develop spiritual wisdom.
…
At this time.
In the library on the other side.
Qin Yang finally received the information about Xia He's investigation.
