"What is that? It looks special." Sensing the strange change in the atmosphere, Yang Xiaoyou halted his advance.
The four Beekeepers had already been eliminated by Fein and his team, but just moments ago, he sensed something new. Besides the unique fluctuations of the Host of the Queen Bee, there was also a peculiar feeling.
This feeling was unsettling, an ominous and evil aura, as if something had been released.
Originally, there were four Containers, totaling twelve Lickers, but now only four or five remained. However, these few seemed to have received some kind of summons and had vanished from sight.
Compared to the Beekeeper continuously emitting the Host of the Queen Bee's energy, Yang Xiaoyou's perception of the Lickers was not very strong. He had no idea where those remaining stragglers were or what they were planning.
He only knew that if all the remaining Lickers gathered and acted under human control, it could lead to casualties among the members of Hive Security Company.
"The objective has basically been achieved. Gather the team; we can withdraw early if necessary. There's no need to get involved in any troublesome matters. We'll report to the government later and let them handle the cleanup," Yang Xiaoyou decided after a moment of contemplation.
Since there was no risk of a large-scale infection, there was no need to go through the trouble of rooting out those slippery Lickers.
The officials would take care of any loose ends afterward.
With foreign criminal organizations involved and firearms being used—especially with the three Gunmen from Yuying Middle School backing them—this operation by Hive Security Company could be considered tacitly approved, even possibly rewarded by good citizens.
Having achieved their initial goal of crippling the Italian forces, this meant that the operation was effectively concluded and fulfilled the additional agreement with Zhao Chen.
At this point, even if they exerted effort to search for those hidden Lickers again, it would be a thankless task. Given their agility, Yang Xiaoyou would struggle to catch them himself unless he possessed the speed of that assassin from the Liang Family's banquet.
However, the remaining Beekeeper, which could cause a lot of trouble, could not be overlooked.
Although it was known that such products have a maximum time limit and that the human body cannot endure for long, it was unclear how much longer the improved version would extend that time.
If it managed to escape the Official's encirclement, it would become a significant problem lurking in the shadows.
Yet, despite knowing this, Yang Xiaoyou felt no impulse to move in that direction at all.
From that direction, he sensed not only the strange aura of the Beekeeper, but also a vague Sense of Crisis.
As he began to hone his mental strength alone in the manner of the Dream Butterfly, the fact that he could feel this way was likely not a good omen.
"Boom!"
Just as Yang Xiaoyou stood still, contemplating and observing, the warning in his Heart suddenly intensified to its maximum. Then, from the direction of the Beekeeper, a violent explosion occurred, shattering the walls of the storage room.
The massive explosion caused the entire warehouse to shake, and dust fell from above.
Yang Xiaoyou let out a sigh of relief; had he entered just moments earlier, being caught in such an explosion would have been disastrous for him, regardless of his physical abilities.
However, before he could fully relax, Yang Xiaoyou's expression changed slightly.
The aura of the Beekeeper, located at the epicenter of the explosion, did not dissipate due to the blast! In fact, that ominous and frenzied feeling seemed to intensify even further!
The ominous aura carried an unsettling resemblance to the force that dwelled within his inner self.
“Roar!!!”
A deep, resonant roar erupted suddenly from the explosion site still shrouded in thick smoke. A powerful gust of air surged forth from the cracked wall of the storage room, dispersing the surrounding fog and revealing a massive silhouette lurking within.
“What the hell is that?” Lucas squinted at the enormous figure exuding a dangerous presence, uncertainty creeping into his voice.
“No way?! Is it really true that whoever has milk is the mother? Can they just sell something like this? It’s not something that Dream Butterfly’s Fool stole and sold, right? Have they lost their minds?” Yang Xiaoyou felt a chill run down her spine as she caught sight of the imposing figure emerging from the smoke.
In today’s world, it was exceedingly rare for anything to evoke a Sense of Crisis in a one-on-one situation. Aside from Feng Lin and Luo Guohui, the only other entity that had managed to instill such fear was that incredibly fast assassin from the last banquet, who had left everyone on edge.
But those were all within the realm of humanity.
As for non-human entities, aside from the most elite tier of short-lived beings, there was only this colossal monster before them, radiating an aura reminiscent of prehistoric beasts!
The Tyrant!
This was a terrifying existence capable of engaging in close-quarters melee combat with Humanoid Combat Weapons, clashing flesh against steel!
It was a creature so formidable that even shoulder-mounted Rocket Launchers couldn’t inflict any real damage on it!
At present, all he could do was rely on mobility to evade; attacking would likely be futile!
"Wait? No, this isn't the Tyrant that was originally stored, is it? What is this thing?" As the smoke gradually cleared, Yang Xiaoyou frowned at the sight of the massive Human Body covered in grotesque lumps of flesh.
The organization had a complex process for enhancing the Tyrant's resilience, and if it were the same type they had seen last time, the finished product should have been ready long ago.
However, the creature that could tentatively be called a Tyrant was still exhibiting some exposed Tendon, oozing blood as if its muscles were bursting from within, resembling a newly formed being.
There was no metallic sheen to it.
At the same time, Yang Xiaoyou noticed a half-burned human corpse with obvious bite marks in his hand. It seemed that the recent explosion was likely caused by infighting among their own ranks.
If he wasn't mistaken, this should be an incomplete version of a Tyrant, mutated by some recently injected Reagent, with its temporary body transformation energy probably derived from the corpse of a former comrade!
"Although I don't know how many corpses it has consumed, it's clear that it is still far from being a complete form. But this has nothing to do with us! All units, stay away and evacuate immediately! Also, be on guard for any potential Licker intercepts on the way! Do not engage; that's a military matter!" Having grasped what kind of creature lay before him, Yang Xiaoyou ordered his team members, who had already begun to retract their defenses in preparation for retreat, to execute a final evacuation.
Engaging with such a creature would be utterly unwise.
