Author: Shenyu Buzhou Mountain

Entrance to Baiyushan Highway, 300 meters away.

In the past, this was a small park with chirping birds and fragrant flowers. Tourists going up the mountain could buy food and water here and take photos as souvenirs.

Today, the park has been violently demolished.

Instead of trees and cobblestone paths, there are sand-colored armored vehicles and military jeeps. Various vehicles and steel fences are arranged in an orderly manner, and soldiers with live ammunition guard the temporary headquarters.

"Baiyushan Temporary Operation Center", Lao Gao and Xiao Lin sat behind the crowd attending the meeting, listening carefully to their boss's account.

"This operation is led by the Special Investigation Bureau, supplemented by the army. The operation is codenamed [Demon Hunting]!"

"I am the deputy section chief of the Intelligence Section of the Special Investigation Bureau. Zhang Changqian is also the supreme commander of this operation. I hope that everyone will cooperate closely. Whether it is a comrade in the Special Investigation Bureau or a brother in the army, we must keep one thing in mind. Principle: While ensuring the completion of the task, minimize damage and must not arouse public opinion!"

Zhang Changqian glanced around, he was about thirty-four or five years old, which is when a man is in the prime of life, and he can hold a key position in the sudden rise of the special bureau. His own abilities and the energy behind him cannot be underestimated, and he has a superior air.

"We plan to enter Baiyu Mountain at noon tomorrow, and all people within ten kilometers of Baiyu Mountain will be evacuated before 10 o'clock tonight."

"At that time, the field personnel of the Special Bureau and the army's scouts will be involved in the mountain search operation. Armored vehicles and heavy weapons will be scattered at the foot of the mountain to prepare for possible impacts. Each search team will be equipped with drones and anesthesia. Guns, submachine guns, incendiary bombs and other weapons, remember to stay in contact at all times and confirm the location with the command headquarters!"

"Note that the primary task of this [Demon Hunting] operation is to capture the target alive, but once things become uncontrollable, such as the target about to break out of the encirclement, the search team will have the right to kill it!"

The projection device made a slight buzzing sound, and a picture was projected on the big screen.

Even though the participants in the meeting had been mentally prepared in advance, after seeing this picture, their scalps were still numb and their hearts were beating wildly.

On the big screen, a monster with fleshy wings stood on the canopy of the tree. Its skin was dark, and its body was covered in dark smoke. The disgusting liquid dripped on the leaves, giving people an extremely uncomfortable feeling.

"This is our goal...Now, I think everyone knows the meaning of the [Demon Hunting] codename."

Zhang Changqian eased the suddenly tense atmosphere and said attentively:

"Everyone should know that the purpose of establishing our Special Investigation Bureau is to figure out things that cannot be explained by modern science, such as the weeping yellow sand, the cliffs that move at night, and the viviparous apples... Ha, these years , there are more and more strange things happening.

"To be honest, I, Zhang Changqian, majored in condensed matter physics during my master's degree. After entering the special bureau, I often thought, can the [science] that we humans rely on for survival really describe the correct objective world? Those myths and legends, Eastern Are the giants chasing the sun and the roaring dragons in the west really just the fabrications of our ancestors?"

"But no matter how we think about it, we must respect an ironclad fact: there are strange things on the earth that humans cannot understand at this stage."

"The Special Intelligence Bureau has been established for four years, and there is no shortage of witnesses and videos. However, it is embarrassing that we have no physical objects that can be studied for a long time."

"But today, in Baiyu Mountain, we found this breakthrough!"

"There is a lot of evidence that there is a real monster hidden here! And judging from its behavior of attacking vehicles arbitrarily, we do not need to abide by humanitarian principles and can capture it on the spot or even kill it!"

"This operation is taken extremely seriously by the highest level. Please cooperate sincerely!"

Zhang Changqian clenched his fists tightly and ended the short meeting.

Immediately afterwards, this picture of the monster was printed out and sent to each search team. They did not have permission to save this picture, but they definitely remembered it in their minds.

——My buddy thought we were going into the mountains to suppress bandits, but it turned out we were going to fight monsters?

Zhang Changqian walked out of the command post, lit a cigarette, but did not smoke it, but held it in his hand and let it burn slowly.

Zhang Changqian is thirty-five this year. Although he got married late, he is still at the age when he should have children. Recently, the couple has started preparing for pregnancy and they can no longer smoke cigarettes.

For him, an old smoker, this is undoubtedly torture, but Zhang Changqian has amazing willpower and has not touched a cigarette for three months.

Unfortunately, he had been under so much pressure these past two days that he woke up in the middle of the night. After the combat meeting today, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he lit a cigarette and held it in his hand, using it as a psychological soothing agent.

Although the operation will not start until noon tomorrow, the people in the temporary operations center are almost ready. Firearms and ammunition have been equipped on the search team, all armored vehicles are in place, and drones are hovering at high altitude, completely surrounding Baiyu Mountain. The travel routes of each search team have been confirmed, and each team member fully understands what they should do.

Everything is ready. If it were not for the restriction of darkness, Zhang Changqian would immediately order action.

"Calm down, calm down, I am the commander-in-chief, I can't make mistakes." Zhang Changqian only relaxed for half a minute, then forced his thoughts to become tense:

"It will get dark in two hours. Nighttime operations are not good for us. To ensure that we catch the monster, we must strike with thunder during the day!"

"At this time, all the people have evacuated. Even if there are scattered idle people, the possibility of accidents is very low. The monster showed the power to overturn the bus in the surveillance video, but it can be clearly seen Its power arm has stress deformation, which shows that it is still made of flesh and blood, and it is absolutely unable to defend against armor-piercing bullets, so it is impossible for it to break out!"

"Is there anything else I've omitted? Is there anything else I've omitted... Yes, it's only half a century after traveling a hundred miles. Tonight is the most likely time for something to happen. We must be more vigilant at night. The night is long and we have many dreams. It is necessary to advance the task at noon tomorrow." By around 9 a.m.…”

…

Eight kilometers outside Baiyu Mountain, there is a small forest garden somewhere.

Lu Yuan operated the electric wheelchair and came to a small tree on a hillside.

He was wrapped in a thick woolen blanket and took out a pair of strange red glasses from the snakeskin bag he carried with him. The two spectacle legs were bent as if they had been burned by fire.

——Alkolia's glasses, which are one of the most superficial applications of alchemy, are equivalent to the "plasticine" played by children on Earth in the magical world.

But even so, after wearing it, Lu Yuan could see unobstructed things within ten kilometers from any angle.

As a result, he saw the busy combat center and the soldiers who were armed to the teeth.

Lu Yuan wrapped the blanket tightly again. It was also an alchemy tool that could hide the figure. It was a cheating tool used by children in the magical world to hide and seek.

A half-disabled body, dressed in "rags".
