The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 232 Suspension Bridge Effect
The moment the corpse opened its eyes, Gao Yang almost thought it was his imagination, because there were no signs at all.

Wang Zikai and Chen Ying were also stunned, and then immediately jumped back.

Gao Yang also jumped away to prevent the corpse from suddenly attacking him.

But the corpse made no other movements. It just opened its eyes, which flashed with a dull green light. This green light was fleeting, then turned into yellow, and finally dark red.

During this process, cracks glowing with red light appeared on the face, neck and chest of the corpse.

The whole process takes no more than 3 seconds.

Gao Yang didn't know why, but a strong intuition suddenly appeared in his mind, a concrete and certain idea.

——The corpse will explode!

And at the moment when this thought occurred, the corpse's eyes and the cracks on its face burst out with dazzling light.

【warn……】

The system voice rang in my head, it was too late.

Gao Yang had no time to jump out of the car. He hugged Chen Ying into his arms and turned around quickly.The body's instinctive reaction is even faster than one's own reason.

The moment he hugged Chen Ying tightly, Gao Yang realized that he wanted to push someone back to the cliff as much as possible before falling into the abyss of death.

"what!"

Gao Yang heard Wang Zikai's cry.

A pair of strong arms hugged Gao Yang from behind, and the broad chest was like a wall, protecting him safely behind him, and naturally also protected Chen Ying in Gao Yang's arms.

The air compresses sharply in an instant.

"lb!"

There was a huge explosion, and the truck was wiped out in an instant.

For a time, the embankment, shoals and river surface were as bright as day.

And in that huge explosion, a burning black shadow with billowing smoke was blown directly out, and fell into the river with a "pop".

Five seconds later, a head stuck out of the river with a "clatter" and wiped his face.

It's Gao Yang.

"Whoa."

Another head emerged from the water, with long wet hair sticking to its pale forehead, and a look of shock on its face.

It's Chen Ying.

The two of them were floating on the river and looked at each other, with only shock and confusion on their faces.

Suddenly, Gao Yang reacted!
He plunged into the water, and Chen Ying followed suit.

One minute later, the two dragged Wang Zikai, who fell into coma, onto the shore step by step.

The two of them were soaked all over. They put Wang Zikai down and half-knelt on the shallows, breathing heavily.

Not far away, the truck disappeared, leaving only a pile of burning embers.

"Zhi Kai! Wang Zikai!"

Gao Yang gently slapped Wang Zikai's face. Wang Zikai frowned and looked in pain, but he was still breathing.

Gao Yang turned Wang Zikai's body sideways. All the clothes and pants on his back were burned, and his skin was almost singed.

Gao Yang took a deep breath and carefully wiped Wang Zikai's back with his hand. There was a handful of wet and sticky ash on his hand, with normal human skin exposed inside.

Very good!
Wang Zikai should have transformed his body into a beast at the moment of the explosion, transforming into a hard wall to withstand the fatal explosion and impact for Gao Yang and Chen Ying.

Otherwise, given the physical fitness of him and Chen Ying, it is very likely that they would be blown to pieces, not to mention being wiped out in ashes.

"call--"

After confirming that Wang Zikai was fine, Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief, and his injured calf began to hurt slightly.

After all, Wang Zikai was not really a wall. Some parts of Gao Yang's body were still injured, but compared to death, the damage was negligible.

He lowered his head and saw that a spot on his left calf had been torn apart, leaving it "scorched on the outside and tender on the inside".

Chen Ying also had a burn on her heel.

These are minor injuries, which can be solved by Potion C. They may leave some scars, but they are harmless.

"He... is he okay?"

Chen Ying, who had narrowly escaped death, wiped some water from her face, her voice still trembling.

"It's okay. He has a strong recovery ability and will be fine in a while."

"Is he really just a white-faced guy?" Chen Ying's shocked eyes flashed with fear. "I didn't believe it at first." Gao Yang smiled bitterly, "But besides Bai Mian, what other beast would firmly believe that he is a human after hearing and seeing such trouble?"

Chen Ying lowered her head. She had no answer.

After a long time, Chen Ying raised her head and looked at Gao Yang solemnly: "Thank you and thank him. If it weren't for you, I would be dead."

"You are helping me investigate, and I should protect you." Gao Yang said.

"No, it's just work, you don't owe me anything."

Chen Ying was very serious. She looked at Gao Yang and said, "I owe you a favor. If you need me in the future, just ask, as long as I can do it."

"Okay, then I won't be polite to you anymore."

To be honest, Chen Ying's talent will really come in handy in the future.

"What are you going to do next?"

Chen Ying's tone was filled with concern: "I know I shouldn't ask any more questions, but the facts you're investigating are too dangerous. You may have offended people you shouldn't have offended."

"I know." Gao Yang sighed: "Just take it one step at a time. I will report this matter to the organization immediately. In short, your work is over."

Chen Ying touched her pocket and took out her mobile phone. She could still turn it on.

"I'll ask someone to pick me up. You don't have to send me off. You can go back as soon as he wakes up."

Chen Ying glanced around and couldn't help but shiver.

All she wanted now was to return to the headquarters immediately, treat her wounds, take a shower, take a sleeping pill, and have a good sleep, hoping that no more explosive corpses would appear in her dreams.

Gao Yang also took out his mobile phone and tried to turn it on.

The fluorescence of the mobile phone illuminated his slightly calm face. This face clearly had the delicate outline of a teenager, but at the moment it looked quite mature and calm.

At that moment, Chen Ying's heart skipped a beat.

Of course she knew that this was because his instinctive behavior just now to protect herself gave him extra points.

What's more, the experience of escaping from death is also a very confusing suspension bridge effect.

"To be honest, this is the first time I have been so close to death." Chen Ying stared at Gao Yang's face and her voice softened unconsciously: "Do you often encounter this kind of situation?"

Gao Yang lowered his head and swiped his phone, looking for Xuanwu's number, and replied casually: "I haven't counted."

A wave of male hormones hit her face, and Chen Ying's heart skipped a beat.

This little brat!

Fortunately, I know your talent, otherwise I would be really moved.

Gao Yang made the call, stood up to avoid Chen Ying, and reported to Xuanwu what had just happened.

After hearing this, Xuanwu was silent for a few seconds and immediately made a decision: "Stop the investigation and return to the Xuanwu branch."

"Yes."

Gao Yang hung up the phone and when he walked back, Wang Zikai had already woken up.

With the help of Chen Ying, Wang Zikai turned over and sat up, spit out a mouthful of river water, and slowly recovered.

He looked up and saw Gao Yang standing in front of him intact, and his first words were: "Brother, are you okay?"

"Wang Zikai, you saved me again." Gao Yang said in a grateful voice.

"Is this such a small thing important?" Wang Zikai said with an exaggerated look of disgust: "Don't be so stupid, I really can't stand it."

"Get lost." Gao Yang gave Wang Zikai a roll of his eyes.

Wang Zikai relaxed his body, but felt something was wrong, so he stood up.

Wang Zikai turned his back to Chen Ying and stretched out: "Well, it feels really comfortable after a good night's sleep... But, why does my butt feel so cold?"

"Is there a possibility that the pants behind your back were burned off during the explosion?" Gao Yang couldn't help laughing.

"Oh, I'm going!"

Only then did Wang Zikai realize that his butt was facing Chen Ying. He hurriedly covered his butt with both hands and turned around.

"Cough cough."

Chen Ying suppressed her blushing face and didn't know where to put her eyes.

"Chen Ying! I just saved your life, you must not tell anyone about this! Do you hear me! Otherwise I won't be able to spare you!"

Wang Zikai blushed and was very excited. His majestic image as a savior was about to be destroyed.

Chen Ying tried her best to hold back her laughter: "Don't worry, I'll keep my mouth shut."
