Global Cataclysm: I became a world tree

Chapter 20 Investigation
In the video, you can see the iron manhole covers of tens of kilograms flying straight up like cannons with a loud noise.

The height instantly surpassed the houses on both sides of the street, and it flew to the height of a ten-story building before it ran out of momentum and fell down, smashing a big hole in the hard concrete pavement of the street.

"Is this...someone planted explosives in the sewer?" The young policeman murmured.

This was the only explanation he could think of.

Xiao Hua finished watching this video silently, then walked to a well cover, squatted down and took a look.

There is no trace of being bombed or bombed. On the contrary, there is a fairly obvious depression on the well cover.

"It's not explosives, it was directly pushed up by some kind of mutated creature." When making this conclusion, Xiao Hua only felt his throat a little dry.

The young police officer opened his mouth, and finally said with difficulty: "How is this possible! It would take at least one ton of impact force to do this scene!"

"That's at least one of the top 50 mutant creatures on the dangerous list! They are so huge, how could they come to our urban area quietly?"

Xiao Hua's expression was unprecedentedly dignified, "I don't know, so tell the brothers of the city guards, and trouble them to go to the sewer to check. Remember to bring heavy weapons."

"Yes, sir." The young policeman left in a hurry.

It didn't take long for the city guards to have two elite teams rushing here.

"Deputy Director Xiao Hua, is the information you gave accurate?" A middle-aged man in the lead asked in a deep voice.

His name was Li Yongming, and he was one of the two captains who came to support him.

"There is a video here, Captain Li, take a look." Xiao Hua didn't say much, directly handed over the instrument in his hand, and clicked on the video.

In just a moment, Li Yongming's expression became more dignified than ever before.

"This is at least a dangerous level, a mutated creature that has reached level three, and the fact that it can come to the city without a sound, proves that the other party still has terrifying lurking abilities."

Li Yongming took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and said heavily: "I'm afraid we have encountered big trouble."

Such a terrifying mutant creature is hidden in the city. If it cannot be eliminated in time, it will be like a time bomb, and no one knows when it will be detonated.

At that time, it may not be so lucky, it just caused riots in a few streets.

"I'll take the team down to have a look." In the end Li Yongming made a decision.

"Captain Li, this is too dangerous, is there something wrong with you going down in person?" Xiao Hua asked in surprise.

"Who is not dangerous to go down? As the captain, I should lead the way." Li Yongming waved his hand.

Then he looked at a member beside him and said, "Xiao Liu, send me a message to the headquarters to send me two armed helicopters. They need to be equipped with ground-penetrating bombs."

"It's the captain." The member of the city guard said quickly.

Soon Li Yongming led two elite teams into the sewer along an open well cover.

"It's too quiet." Li Yongming noticed something was wrong as soon as he entered the sewer.

It's not that he hasn't entered the city's sewers before. It can be said that this place is the territory of rats, cockroaches, flies, mosquitoes, and these mutant creatures.

Basically, after entering, there are such creatures everywhere, and the probability of a direct battle is very high.

Now, although the environment in the sewer is the same as before, with the sewage flowing and the stench raging, there is not a single creature to be seen.

"Be careful, keep the defensive formation moving forward." Li Yongming turned on the portable lighting equipment on his body, raised his gun, and walked forward.

The rest of the team quickly followed.

However, the more they walked, the more surprised they became, because along the way, they couldn't even see a single mutant creature.

"Captain, is it because of the remaining breath?" A member asked in a low voice.

"Well! All animals have a sense of territory. After they mutate, this aspect has not changed, and it has even become more terrifying."

"According to our research, some powerful creatures can even directly exude deterrence to make other mutated creatures submit." Li Yongming walked forward while explaining.

Soon, he stopped and touched the wall beside him.

There is an obvious scratch on the cement board here.

"Ordinary creatures have scratches, and most of what remains are scratches, but how can it be so smooth here." He stroked the cement board lightly, as if it had been re-polished and polished.

Unfortunately, no one could solve this doubt for him, so he could only cautiously continue to lead the team forward.

Not long after, he arrived at the first place he was looking for.

Since the officials knew about the threat of mutant mice, how could they not be prepared at all.

As early as the previous few times, during the process of "eliminating the four pests", they installed monitoring equipment in some hidden places in the sewer.

"Captain, the barbed wire has been bitten open, and the monitoring equipment inside has been damaged." A technician squatted down to check quickly, and said a little frustrated.

"Is the memory card damaged?" Li Yongming asked.

"There is no damage, but the problem is that this monitoring device has stopped working for a long time, and the latest records that can be found are all from a month ago." The team member said helplessly.

"It's okay, let's go to the next location, there is a camouflage recorder there, it should not be damaged." Li Yongming glanced at the phone map and said.

It was a map of the sewers and marked where all the equipment was installed.

The team continued to move forward without encountering any danger, or rather calmly, and came to the place where the recorder was hidden.

This hidden recorder is similar to an ordinary cement board, directly mounted on the wall, the only difference is the three inconspicuous pinhole cameras.

Even the color of the pinhole camera is camouflaged, so if you don't look carefully, you won't notice it at all.

As expected, there was no damage to the recorder.

Li Yongming showed a smile on his face, and immediately asked the technicians in the team to open the equipment connection device.

But as he got closer to observe, the smile on his face froze.

Because the positions of the three pinhole cameras are all covered with unknown black adhesions without exception, completely covering the cameras.

With the last hope in his heart, he asked the technician to connect to the recorder and retrieve the surveillance video from his mobile phone.

But unsurprisingly, it was pitch black.

"Go, go to the next place." He took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and said in a deep voice.

Next, they went to five more places where surveillance equipment was installed, and all of them were destroyed without exception.

It wasn't until I came to the next street that I found a surveillance device that was not damaged and the camera was not blocked.

"Quickly export the video." Li Yongming said excitedly to the members who were operating.
