Chapter 3367: Chapter 3359: Terrifying Creature
Lin Yi saw that there were many people appearing on the street.
People dressed differently from the town’s residents.
Running around the street, shouting loudly at nearby people, as if borrowing medicine from them.
A group member who was packing up also heard the shouting and came to the window.
"Aren’t these the GP4 people," Yu Siying muttered.
"Judging by the situation, it seems like someone is injured," Sui Qiang said.
"Did anything like this happen during previous missions?"
"No," Yu Siying shook her head. "Based on our observations, and their state back then, it seemed to be going smoothly. This is the first time something like this has happened."
"Luo Qi, disguise yourself and see what’s going on."
"Understood."
After a simple disguise, Luo Qi went out.
Everyone continued to watch out the window, observing the development of the situation.
But soon, the people on the street disappeared, leaving a layer of tension in the town.
About half an hour later, Luo Qi came back running.
"Boss, the situation isn’t good," Luo Qi said:
"The people from GP4 were injured. There are over ten of them, with six injured, two of them severely. One broke a leg, and another has a chest wound that’s very serious; you can even see the ribs."
Everyone looked at each other.
From these days of observation, they had a rough understanding of GP4’s capabilities.
In the realm of the Foreign Legion, their skills are quite good.
To have beaten them like this, they must have encountered a formidable opponent.
"Could it have been discovered by other organizations?" Zhao Yunhu said.
Given GP4’s capabilities, only someone mastering dantian force could defeat them in such a devastating manner.
"Probably not," Shao Jianfeng said:
"If they had really encountered people like us, they would have been killed, not allowed to come back alive."
Shao Jianfeng’s statement received the agreement of others.
But why such a thing happened was still unknown.
"Can the type of injury be seen?" Lin Yi asked.
"That’s what I wanted to say," Luo Qi pondered:
"From the type of wound, it doesn’t seem like it was from a fight. It seems more like an animal attack; the chest wound looks like a scratch, with a large piece of flesh missing from the body."
"Hmm? Could they have encountered a beast? Doesn’t seem likely," Zhao Yunhu said.
"Wasn’t there a legend of snow monsters in the Alps before? Could they have really encountered one?" Shao Jianfeng said with a chuckle.
"Stop with the nonsense," Yu Siying said:
"Their operating location was Horror Lake. It had been safe before, and they only got injured during this operation. So the problem lies with Horror Lake."
"Siying is right," Lin Yi said:
"Let’s set off now and take a look."
"Yes!"
After tidying up briefly, Lin Yi led the team towards the Alps.
About three hours later, they arrived near Horror Lake.
The lake wasn’t very large, its waters calm, a clear azure blue.
Occasional gusts of wind created ripples.
Due to different latitudes, the ground’s snow had not fully melted.
Bursts of chill pierced through the clothes instantly.
But for the team, such weather was nothing significant.
"First, search the nearby area to see if there are any traces they left behind," Lin Yi looked around and said:
"Everyone must ensure they are always within each other’s sight."
"Understood."
The team members dispersed to search the vicinity of Horror Lake.
Lin Yi climbed to a high point, observing the whole situation.
Judging by the current situation and the type of wounds, it’s almost certain that the possibility of another organization is excluded.
However, excluding this possibility, Lin Yi couldn’t think of any other possibilities.
"Could they have really encountered a monster?"
Lin Yi smirked, finding it a bit far-fetched.
"Boss, we found something!"
Zhao Yunhu’s shout came, and Lin Yi and the others hurried towards his location.
On the southwest side of Horror Lake, they found a large pool of blood.
"Lin Bro, there’s a piece of flesh too," Luo Qi said.
"Not just flesh, but other things as well."
Upon closer inspection, they found scraps of fabric.
"We can now ascertain that the first scene is here," Shao Jianfeng said:
"But this spot is too close to the lake, not an ideal place for a fight."
"Come on, let’s think outside the box," Luo Qi said:
"Analyze the possible and impossible, and slowly we’ll get a clue."
"You’ve learned well from the boss’s way of thinking," Shao Jianfeng laughed and said.
"Following the boss’s line of thinking, the problem might lie underwater," Yu Siying said:
"Something might have emerged from the water and injured them."
"Sister Ying, you’re not suggesting it’s the Water Monster, are you?" Luo Qi said.
"Just broadening the perspective," Yu Siying said:
"And since this place is called Horror Lake, if nothing creepy happens here, it wouldn’t deserve the name."
"If your speculation holds, then the disappearances weren’t a coincidence."
"We can only think this way," Yu Siying said:
"Moreover, such things, we can’t say they are impossible; what didn’t we see on the island?"
"When you say that, I get goosebumps," Luo Qi said:
"I heard so many unsolved mysteries of the world as a child, thought they were all made up. But looking now, they might actually be true."
"True or false, who can say for sure?"
Yu Siying said:
"Anyway, the only possibilities I can think of now are that there’s something underwater, or there are snow monsters or something like that. They happened to encounter them, and a battle happened by the lake."
"Boss, what do you think?" Sui Qiang asked.
"Quite similar to Siying," Lin Yi said:
"Do we have underwater filming equipment in the car?"
"No, given the harsh conditions here, civilian equipment might not work; we need professional ones."
"Call the regiment and get some sets over quickly."
"Got it."
After pondering for a moment, Lin Yi said:
"Luo Qi, collect the tissue cells from the ground and send them back for analysis."
"Got it."
Luo Qi began working with tools, while the rest stared at the lake surface in a daze.
"Boss, it’ll take at least 20 hours to deliver. What do we do during this time?"
"You guys guard this place, and I’ll go down to take a look."
"Is that even viable?"
Luo Qi said worriedly:
"The lake water is near freezing, and if there’s something below, it’s highly dangerous."
"No big deal."
"Jianfeng, you go down with Hu Zi and the boss, while the rest observe from above," Yu Siying said.
