The stars twinkled, and the night view was enchanting. In the pitch-black sky, the stars shone like diamonds, scattering countless points of silver-gray light.
The moonlight was as clear as a piece of white jade, this crystal-clear white jade embedded in the boundless night sky.
How beautiful it was! Lin Fei took a deep breath of the fresh air filtered by nature, feeling thoroughly refreshed, a privilege that people living in the city could never enjoy.
In a small plain somewhere in the Wangyue Mountain forest, Lin Fei's figure reappeared at the site of his previous battle. Since not much time had passed, the place still clearly retained the traces left by the previous battle.
Lin Fei observed the surroundings but found nothing unusual.
Because it was night, the forest was pitch black and silent. The occasional insect chirping did not bring peace but rather made people more anxious.
Lin Fei did not intend to enter the Wangyue Mountain forest directly. Although he was not afraid of the mosquitoes, snakes, ants, or fierce beasts he might encounter in the forest, as they could not cause him any substantial harm, a sudden encounter or stepping on them at night would still give him a big scare. There was no need to put his heart through such unnecessary strain.
"It seems I can only use it," Lin Fei muttered to himself.
Telekinesis: the ability to physically control or construct a telekinetic barrier to defend against various external forces. This was the ability Lin Fei gained during his fifth awakening.
Lin Fei used telekinesis to envelop himself, lifting his body into the air.
Flying is a dream of every human. In his previous life, Lin Fei had once fantasized about flying freely in the sky during his childhood. As he grew older, this thought gradually disappeared, which was probably a part of growing up!
In this life, in this magical world, he never expected his dream of flying to come true. Life is unpredictable!
Whoosh... Lin Fei shot up into the sky, instantly entering the clouds. A moment later, he darted out of the clouds, and looking down, he could see the scenery below. At first, he saw a continuous range of mountains, with large patches of mist covering the valleys. Lin Fei descended a bit, and the rivers and mountains came into full view.
As his flight altitude gradually decreased, Lin Fei flew along the edge of the forest, sensing the spiritual energy fluctuations within.
Based on the approximate location provided by the class monitor, Lin Fei conducted a thorough search.
An hour passed, but the results were not ideal. Lin Fei did not find any signs of animals with abilities.
"It seems they have left this area. Continuing the search would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. I'll look for them again if I have the chance. They can't be the only animals with abilities," Lin Fei thought.
Just as Lin Fei was about to head back, a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly came from deep within the forest, accompanied by the roar of a large beast.
"There's something! Looks like my luck isn't bad today!"
Lin Fei quickly flew towards the location.
"Those who are not injured, take the injured and retreat first," Xie Yurong calmly and decisively ordered.
"Yes," the investigators who could still speak replied.
There were not many uninjured investigators, but those who could still move gritted their teeth and quickly carried their severely injured and exhausted colleagues to safety.
The surrounding trees were toppled, and the ground was pitted and scarred, with marks that looked like they had been cut by sharp weapons.
Not far from the investigators, two animal corpses lay on the ground: a large snake over ten meters long and a robust wild boar. If Lin Fei's class monitor were here, he would immediately recognize these two animals as the ones he encountered in the Wangyue Mountain forest.
The two animal corpses were covered in numerous wounds, some from electric shocks, some from freezing, and some from burns. The fatal wounds were on their heads, clearly indicating they had been surrounded and attacked by the investigators.
Xie Yurong's face was serious, her gaze cold, as she watched these uninvited guests.
Today, the Ability Management Bureau received several reports from hikers who claimed to have encountered animals with abilities in Wangyue Mountain. Based on the location they provided, the intelligence department's investigators indeed found their traces. Subsequently, Xie Yurong led two teams into the mountain under the cover of night to capture them. They found the two animals quickly, and everything went according to plan, resolving the situation swiftly.
These two animals had likely come from the depths of the western mountains. The reason for their fight had been preliminarily determined.
According to the instruments, the concentration of spiritual energy in this area was much higher than in other regions, suggesting the presence of a spiritual energy mine.
Whether human or animal, if they lived in a high-concentration spiritual energy environment, their strength would gradually increase. These two animals with abilities fought to monopolize this place for themselves.
Until they were discovered by the investigators, they had been facing off. Encountering a large group of investigators, the outcome was predictable. After a fierce battle, the two animals, though powerful, were eventually killed.
Just as everyone was about to celebrate their victory, powerful shockwaves hit the investigators of the Ninth Bureau.
Most of the personnel were knocked down and severely injured, some even falling into a coma.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. In the silent forest, a dozen pairs of green eyes appeared, eerie and terrifying.
A gust of wind passed, and the trees rustled, mingling with the groans of the injured investigators, creating a desolate atmosphere.
A giant azure wolf led the way out of the forest, followed by a dozen more fierce azure wolves. They stared at the hairless beings before them, their gazes like a shower of needles, almost turning the investigators into porcupines.
The closest to the investigators was the leading azure wolf, as large as a leopard, twice as thick, half as tall, and half a body length longer than the wolves seen in zoos.
Its neck, chest, and abdomen were covered in large patches of gray-white fur, emitting a faint glow that wrapped around its body, radiating a powerful and arrogant aura of a king.
The lead wolf's eyes now showed a mocking look, as if mocking the overconfidence of these hairless beings.
The lead wolf let out a howl, and the dozen azure wolves that had been crouching on the ground suddenly stood up, their long tails held straight like unsheathed military knives, ready to pounce from a high vantage point.
This was the order to attack.
