PFC Chapter 3863 Monster
Chapter 3863 Monster
Su Zhou asked suspiciously, frowning, "Mr. Fang Heng, what's wrong?"
Fang Heng pointed into the distance, "Ahead, about 500 meters away, there are a lot of monsters gathered on the road. They look like beetle-like creatures. It's best to avoid them."
"Ok?"
Su Zhou's heart skipped a beat. She looked up again at the distance through the car window and swallowed nervously.
Even though I can't see anything ahead.
More than 500 meters away?
So Fang Heng could see through the dark fog 500 meters away with just his naked eye?
"beep!!"
Su Zhou had no suspicion of Fang Heng and immediately sounded the emergency alarm, signaling the team to stop.
The entire train convoy slowly came to a stop.
Soon, Harley, a dark-skinned man, hurried over, knocked on the car window, and asked, "Su Zhou, what's going on?"
Su Zhou said in a deep voice, "Harley, there are beetle-like monsters ahead, quite a few of them."
"what?"
Harley paused, then frowned and asked, "How did you know?"
Fang Heng said calmly from the side, "I saw it."
"Huh? You saw it?"
Harley looked puzzled, then glanced at Su Zhou. Seeing that Su Zhou didn't seem to be joking, Harley pointed at the two of them and said, "You two come with me to see the captain."
Soon, Fang Heng and his companion followed Harley to the front row of a large armored vehicle.
Jeremy, the captain of the Chamber of Commerce, was also bewildered after Harley recounted what had happened. He looked at Fang Heng with a scrutinizing gaze, "You saw it? You could see what was happening in the dark fog?"
"good."
Jeremy then looked at Su Zhou, as if asking him what he was doing.
Su Zhou said, "He is my friend, I trust him, and I am willing to vouch for him."
Jeremy fell silent, forced to seriously consider Fang Heng's words.
Many caravans, noticing the halt in their journeys, sent people over to inquire about the situation.
Hearing Fang Heng's words, everyone was a little surprised.
High-ranking judges of the Holy Tribunal can dispel a certain degree of the dark fog, but it requires considerable effort. There has never been anyone who can see through the dark fog five or six hundred meters away without doing anything.
Nearby, a member of the chamber of commerce asked, "How many beetle-like creatures are blocking the road?"
“There are many, the whole area in front of us is full of them.”
"President, should we take a detour?"
"Hmm, let's check the terrain first."
Jeremy may not trust Fang Heng, but he has great faith in Su Zhou.
Su Zhou has always been very reliable.
Jeremy gestured for his men to bring him the map, his brows slowly furrowing.
"How about it?"
"This is bad. There's an open area ahead, but dense forests on both sides, making it difficult for trucks to get in. If we take a detour, it will take at least two and a half hours longer."
"Damn, what's going on? Two and a half hours of detours? That's past the safe time limit!"
Upon hearing this, some people immediately started making a fuss.
More and more people gathered around, quietly asking each other what had happened.
One of them suddenly said, "This is the first time we've met this person. Could he have been sent by a rival merchant guild?"
Su Zhou stared coldly at the other party and said, "I've already said, he's one of our caravan members, and I can vouch for him."
Everyone fell silent.
Jeremy frowned.
Indeed, while Su Zhou could be trusted, what if Fang Heng was mistaken? Or perhaps Su Zhou had also misjudged him?
But if what they say is true, then the beetle monsters that appeared on the road ahead are very likely a deliberate design by a rival merchant guild.
Just as everyone was hesitating, a young and beautiful woman walked over, escorted by several people.
This person is Anna, the daughter of the town's mayor, who is also backed by a powerful force in the town.
Anna's beautiful eyes swept over Fang Heng for a moment before she said, "Mr. Su Zhou, please calm down. My subordinate was ignorant, please don't take offense. I apologize on his behalf. This is Mr. Fang's first time here, and we don't know him well, so it's hard to fully trust him. After all, what he said was really beyond our understanding."
"In my opinion, why don't we send a reconnaissance team to check the situation? If there are indeed Dark Mist Monsters blocking our way, we can immediately turn back and find another way out. What do you all think?"
"Okay! Let's do it that way."
Jeremy made a quick decision.
The fog is extremely dangerous; only a short period at midday is relatively safe. Every minute spent thinking is wasting the little time you have left.
"Harley, drive over there slowly and be very careful. Once you've assessed the situation, turn back immediately."
"understand!"
Harley immediately led his men to drive an armored vehicle, slowly heading into the dark fog ahead.
The group remained where they were, watching the armored vehicle slowly disappear into the dark fog ahead.
A moment of silence fell over the area.
Time passed by, second by second.
"Bang bang bang!!!!"
A series of rapid gunshots pierced the dark fog ahead.
Everyone's expression immediately changed.
Done!
We've really run into trouble!
Before anyone could speak, Fang Heng said from the side, "This is bad. The armored vehicle has alerted the monsters, and they're coming after us."
Upon hearing Fang Heng's words, everyone's expression changed again.
Seriously? You can really see that?
Jeremy muttered a curse and immediately shouted, "Quick! Did you hear that? What are you all standing there for?! Set up the defensive line!"
"Yes!"
The first dozen or so armored vehicles immediately started up and set up a defensive line in front of the team. Each squad of the escort regiment picked up their weapons and equipment, pointed their guns forward, and turned all the lanterns to maximum brightness, illuminating a distance of more than fifty meters ahead.
Soon, a figure emerged rapidly from the black mist.
"It's a Harley!"
Harley's armored vehicle sped out of the black fog and came to a sudden stop in front of them.
Another member of the team leaned half his body out of the Harley window and shouted to the others, "Watch out! There are a large number of mutated black beetles ahead, at least a hundred! They're chasing us!"
"Depend on!"
Upon confirming the devastating news, everyone forgot about Fang Heng and cursed under their breath, all pointing their guns at the black fog ahead.
Anna was quite surprised, her beautiful eyes sweeping over Fang Heng.
Was he right?
Once was a coincidence? But twice being a coincidence seems a bit too much.
Is it really possible for anyone to see clearly what's happening in the dark fog?
If that's the case, we must find a way to bring this person under our command.
Soon, dark shadows emerged from the distant fog, accompanied by the unique sound of arthropods rubbing against the ground, moving at an extremely fast speed.
Jeremy stared into the dark fog, slowly raised his hand, and shouted, "Everyone! Ready! Fire!"
"Bang! Bang bang!!"
Each squad unleashed its firepower, pouring large-caliber bullets into the dark fog. (End of Chapter)
