Chapter 185: A Completely Different Kind of Danger

With the Great Roc around, Chen Yi and the others were indeed safe and sound for the time being.

However, Chen Yi knew that it was still unclear what this awkward and monstrous creature actually was. Although Chu Yunxi had already started a technical analysis, she had not yet arrived at a full conclusion. She could only sigh and tell Chen Yi that it was too early to make a definitive judgment.

Chen Yi felt quite restless about this matter. Once this attempt failed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At this moment, the giant monster roared once again and took a step-by-step approach toward Chen Yi.

"How is big sis doing now?"

Chen Yaxi asked somewhat anxiously. After all, Chen Yi was the only one currently outside the protective range of the Great Kunpeng. She wondered how much longer it would take for the test report to come out, and whether it would be too late for Chen Yi to gain the power to follow up...

"Almost there."

Chu Yunxi earnestly adjusted the data and studied the giant monster. According to her analysis, more than ninety percent of this monster was composed of blood clots, yet its energy was no less than that of a normal human being. This was because its greed, anger, and delusion originated from humans, while also being possessed by forces beyond humanity.

Coupled with the arrogant warrior they had fought earlier, which was still wandering around, this further proved that the destruction of humanity in this world had only just begun.

However, this human extinction plan did not seem predestined by the heavens.

Ever since this incident occurred, Chu Yunxi always felt that the mastermind behind the scenes had a rather complicated motive.

It seemed that the mastermind was still observing the future, so if they could find the weaknesses of those people from this, they might still have a fighting chance.

"This monster is composed of human corpses, but to a greater extent, it has borrowed the power of the Calamity Curse Disk. It should be of the same type as the arrogant warrior. But I am curious whether this strange mutant, just like the arrogant warrior, belongs to the ever-escalating killers of the slaughter game. If that is truly the case, we will be reduced to passive defense!"

Lu Kai and Hu Sanhan had never felt death to be so close to them. Perhaps because they had always relied on Chen Yi, they had never considered what they needed to do next.

However, now that they heard Chu Yunxi say these words with their own ears, they also began to feel terrified. If any mishap were to occur, they would truly end up dead without a whole corpse.

Thinking along these lines, the few of them weighed the pros and cons and decided to go out and help Chen Yi.

"No moving."

At this moment, the Great Kunpeng let out a low roar. "You guys stay obediently inside my mouth right now. The Boss said that I must protect you. If you want to go out, you either bite me to death or get the Boss's permission. Without his permission, none of you are allowed to leave."

"You can't do this."

Chen Yaxi pouting her lips said, "Uncle Kunpeng, holding us back like this, are you treating us like good-for-nothings?"

The Great Kunpeng spoke again very calmly, "I am not casting you aside as good-for-nothings; I am following the Boss's instructions."

At this time, Chen Yi also began to act. He launched several attacks against the giant monster, yet he still could not find its weakness.

Chu Yunxi, who was inside, had an idea. "Kunpeng, I know you don't want us to go out, but we have to help Chen Yi. Turn the direction a bit so I can see that fellow more clearly. Perhaps I can figure out his weakness."

"This can be done."

Upon hearing this, the Great Kunpeng quickly changed its attitude and aimed its direction toward Chen Yi. At this moment, Chen Yi was continuously battling the monster, their respective powers colliding with neither side gaining the upper hand.

Chen Yi's twin blades, which theoretically should have been unbreakable after evolution, failed to even pierce the monster's hide when dealing with this creature.

Lu Kai was also extremely shocked. "Damn, this is even more terrifying than a zombie. What kind of evolutionary form is this anyway?"

"Didn't I already tell you? It's a human evolutionary form."

Chen Yaxi curled her lips. "Brother Lu Kai, has your brain been scared silly by it?"

"No fooling around."

Chu Yunxi glanced at Chen Yaxi, then looked back at Lu Kai and explained once again.

According to the survey results, these mutants were formed by the fusion of humans, which meant Chen Yi's every move could be analyzed. However, to truly harm its core body, one must first find the fundamental source that strengthened these entities that altered the curse disk. Without finding this source of fundamental power, everything else would be meaningless.

Therefore, at this moment, the top priority was not to rush outside, but rather to immediately discover the monster's weakness the moment Chen Yi needed help.

"Since it's human, it probably has the same weaknesses as humans."

At this time, Hu Sanhan's words truly awakened Chu Yunxi. "That's right, why didn't I think of that?"

The weakness of humans lay in being overly selfish, and this fellow's target had always been Chen Yi. This meant it believed that everything would end once Chen Yi was killed. Since that was the case, letting Chen Yi pretend to fall for it and execute a counter-kill was also a decent choice.

Therefore, Chu Yunxi spoke to the Great Kunpeng once again.

"Use your telepathy to transmit my message to my husband. That way, it won't be considered going against Chen Yi's wishes."

The Great Kunpeng nodded, and immediately conveyed Chu Yunxi's thought to Chen Yi.

Hearing this while in the middle of battle, Chen Yi swiftly retracted his wings and purposely pretended to plummet toward the sea right in front of the creature.

At the very instant the giant monster lowered its guard, Chen Yi spread his wings wide and hurled his twin blades, which pierced straight through its throat.

Watching the monster crash into the water, Chen Yi did not relax and quickly widened the distance, feeling that things were not over yet.

Sure enough, although the creature's neck had been pierced, it did not die. Instead, it let out an even more ferocious roar, violently slapping its damaged neck while its eyes began to glow with a hint of excitement.

"What on earth is this ghost?"

Hu Sanhan gasped. Even Chen Yi couldn't kill it, so what other way was there to deal with this fellow?

For a moment, everyone felt a headache coming on.

And right at that moment, Chen Yi distinctly saw that those creatures all bore special markings. These markings were not the traces of the X Organization, but rather an unprecedented, ancient trace.

Clearly, there was someone else manipulating things from behind the scenes this time, and this force was a hundred times stronger than any opponents they had encountered before.

Just from the fact that human fragments could form the physical body of a giant monster, Chen Yi knew that the adversary had made a heavy move.

Therefore, he spoke to the Great Kunpeng at this moment, "It's time to release everyone. Now we must split into two groups: one group to collect supplies, and the other to stay with me and slay this monster."
