Chapter 312
A few hours later, the joint search-and-rescue team had successfully pulled out most of the soldiers who’d gone missing during the anomaly incident at Defense Line 3. But now they faced a second problem: what to do with the high-tier anomaly, the “chimeric beast,” that was still rampaging through the ruins near the Penguin Building.
According to the intelligence Qian Weiguo had provided, the New God’s Church had stockpiled a large amount of strategic resources in their temporary base. Although they’d succeeded in luring the chimeric beast away from that base using the armored vehicle plan, given the beast’s current destructive power, it was only a matter of time before the area above the base was flattened as well.
And once that happened, getting underground to retrieve those resources would become a whole lot harder.
So Deng Yuqi believed they had to find a way to lure the chimeric beast away from Defense Line 3, to pave the way for eventually seizing the New God’s Church’s temporary base.
Just as Deng Yuqi was racking her brain over the chimeric beast problem, a scout suddenly reported that the beast had dropped dead on the spot—and then, with a flash of white light, it vanished before everyone’s eyes.
“Vanished?” Deng Yuqi frowned.
The scout nodded quickly. “Yes, vanished. It just—poof—disappeared into thin air, along with that white light.”
“How could something so bizarre happen?” It wasn’t just Deng Yuqi—the other squad leaders present had never witnessed anything so strange either.
Regardless, the chimeric beast’s disappearance was excellent news for the joint rescue team, and for the shelter as a whole.
