437: An anomaly! A dragon!

Hearing the soldier's report, Chu Tian and Gu Qinghan exchanged glances and immediately prepared to rush outside.

However, at that moment, Gu Qinghan suddenly stopped Chu Tian and said to him, "You stay here; I'll go."

"There are still people here who need protection; it's safer if you stay."

Chu Tian thought about it and agreed, then looked at Gu Qinghan and said, "Then I'll trouble you."

Gu Qinghan smiled, immediately followed the soldier, and left, leaving behind a lighthearted remark: "It's nothing; who told me I'm a general here now?"

Following the soldier outside, Gu Qinghan could already hear the sounds of battle from a distance.

The glow of skills lit up the night sky, accompanied by the sounds of collapsing buildings and people's shouts.

Faintly, there was also a roar that Gu Qinghan had never heard before.

The soldier glanced at Gu Qinghan, about to say something, but immediately saw a dark shadow fly past him.

Under the bright moonlight, he realized that Gu Qinghan was actually flying towards the battlefield on a giant black crow.

In Gu Qinghan's vision, a giant yellowish-brown monster was furiously attacking a building.

This enormous monster had some characteristics of a rat, but its entire body was covered in solid scales.

Its body length was at least dozens of meters, like a bulldozer tearing through the streets.

Gu Qinghan's eyes narrowed, and he immediately released Dragon Bear and Dragon Cat.

The moment Dragon Bear's massive body landed, the surrounding ground shook violently.

However, he successfully landed behind the monster and extended his claws to grab its tail.

Then, Dragon Bear exerted force, trying to swing the giant monster around.

At least from its size, Dragon Bear had an absolute advantage.

Dragon Cat, meanwhile, concealed its form and rapidly approached the giant monster from the shadows.

The instant Dragon Bear exerted its strength, Dragon Cat lunged out, its sharp claws reflecting a cold glint in the moonlight.

But precisely at that moment, the surrounding ground began to tremble violently.

Countless rocks seemed to be summoned, quickly gathering on the monster's body, accumulating a thick defensive layer on its surface.

Dragon Cat's claws struck it; an attack that could have split mountains and shattered rocks only left a few deep claw marks on it.

Gu Qinghan clearly saw that the rocks covering the monster's body emitted a thick luster, which blocked the attack.

At the same time, those rocks seemed to connect the ground and the monster, preventing Bear King from swinging it off the ground with all his might.

With a snap, the tail, thicker than an adult's body, broke off.

A roar, as if from ancient times, erupted from the monster's mouth, followed by several stone spikes suddenly ejecting from the rocks on its body, stabbing towards Dragon Cat.

However, the speed of the stone spikes was nothing compared to Dragon Cat's, and the latter easily dodged them.

The now even larger monster turned around, charging at Dragon Bear like a truck.

Dragon Bear let out a roar, slamming his palms down, colliding with the unknown monster.

With a bang, Dragon Bear's massive body remained motionless, while the giant monster, as if hitting a mountain, bent its body in one direction.

Dragon Bear took the opportunity to bend down and embrace the opponent, tightly restraining him.

Dragon Cat's figure reappeared, its sharp claws forming a net, rapidly pulverizing the rocks on the monster's surface.

But seeing that the surrounding rocks seemed to be gathering again, Gu Qinghan finally made his move.

His eyes instantly turned green, and he immediately severed the fine lines between the rocks and the monster.

The rocks fell away, and at this moment, a black greatsword appeared in mid-air.

The greatsword was entirely black; if not for the moonlight, it would be almost impossible to spot at night.

Then, this greatsword fell straight towards the monster's struggling body.

Death Judgment!

The black greatsword plunged in almost halfway, causing the monster's body to tremble violently.

But Dragon Bear held its body in place, and Gu Qinghan had severed the rocks that tried to gather.

At this moment, it had no way to escape or resist, only to struggle continuously.

Seeing that the surrounding buildings and streets were being destroyed beyond recognition as this creature struggled, Gu Qinghan decided not to hold back.

A second black greatsword appeared, plunging into the creature's body in the same manner.

Although there was no cooldown, the mana cost directly doubled, becoming 1000 points.

Then came the third, 2000 points.

The fourth, 4000 points.

When the fifth one fell, the giant monster's struggles finally ceased, and Gu Qinghan also stopped.

The consumption at this point had reached a terrifying 8000 points.

Gu Qinghan's mana had also disappeared by a small half at this point, but the effect was evident.

The giant monster's body had almost been directly split in half from the middle.

Especially the last greatsword, it directly pierced through the giant monster's body, pinning it to the ground.

One must know that this monster's defense was something even Dragon Cat couldn't break through for a long time.

Gu Qinghan slowly landed next to the monster, and to his surprise, the monster was not dead yet.

Its eyes were still glaring at Gu Qinghan, the ferocity within them almost materializing.

However, at this point, it had no ability to resist and could only slowly await death.

[Earth Wyvern (Monarch): Level 50]

[Combat Power: 430,000]

Gu Qinghan's eyelids involuntarily twitched when he saw the creature's attributes.

A Level 50 Monarch-grade monster, with over 400,000 combat power.

And judging by the Shangjing Base's defensive capabilities, this creature absolutely could not have come from outside.

The only possibility was that this creature was actually experiment subject zero.

Gu Qinghan circled the giant monster, and seeing more and more people gathering, he could only end its life.

A massive amount of Necromantic Power entered Gu Qinghan's body, raising his level to 52.

"Such a powerful monster only raised my level by one, and that's with previous accumulation..." Gu Qinghan said with some regret, not considering what others would think if they heard this.

After all, from others' perspective, Gu Qinghan appeared on the battlefield like a War God, having his subordinates restrain this Earth Wyvern.

Then, several black greatswords fell consecutively, and this terrifying wyvern was directly slain.

The total time, from start to finish, did not exceed one minute!

Compared to this, those who witnessed the entire battle were more willing to believe that Gu Qinghan was the monster.

Gu Qinghan had the surrounding soldiers clean up the battlefield, while he stored the Earth Wyvern's corpse in his necromantic space.

His expression was somewhat serious; he had to immediately inform Chu Tian of the monster's attributes.

From the intelligence currently at hand, he could almost confirm two things.

Demonic Power would cause creatures modified by Dragon Power to feel repulsion, and could even suppress the berserk nature within Dragon Power.

But that Sacred Power seemed to have the effect of stimulating Dragon Power.

Gu Qinghan even had a conjecture that ordinary Professionals' bodies should also contain faint Sacred Power.

And if all of this was true, wouldn't that mean... the current Professionals were almost like fodder for those dragon-transformed Mutated Creatures?

And there was still the most important question: these beings with Dragon Power, after acquiring enough Sacred Power, would transform into the monster he just encountered.

experiment subject zero was previously just a Mutated White Rat, but its name had completely changed now.

Earth Wyvern...
