Chapter 142: White Dragon Strikes!
In the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, Volume of the Northern Mountains," it is said, "The beast resembles a leopard with a white body, known as Mengji. It is skilled in hiding and calls out with its own voice."
In the "Classic of Mountains and Seas."
Mengji is a wild animal that looks like a leopard.
Its body is white with patterns and is good at lurking and hiding.
At this time, the giant beast Luo Yan saw on the screen looked very similar.
It’s no wonder it is called ‘Mengji’.
Inside the giant beast.
Mengji’s size could be considered ‘tiny’.
So, in terms of level, it’s just a Level 2 beast.
Even so.
Mengji’s height is still over forty meters, which is about the height of a Mystical Mecha if a person stood up.
The places it passed by.
The ground was covered in frost, forming a white cold zone.
And on this cold belt, on the nearby land.
The ground kept cracking, and something emerged from inside.
Luo Yan zoomed in on one section of the picture.
To their surprise, what emerged from the ground was a highly decomposed wild buffalo carcass.
It seemed as if it was being summoned by an invisible force, returning from the underworld, leaving behind the soil and decaying leaves that wrapped its body.
It exposed its own white bones, partially decomposed fur, and organs without moisture to the air.
And there were many similar things.
Buffaloes, antelopes, wild boars, wolves, dogs, birds, and even humans.
Various kinds of bones crawled out of the earth.
Returned to earth once again.
As the camera zoomed out, you could see Mengji’s surroundings and the back.
Surrounded by countless bodies.
The number is so high that it’s shocking.
Thousands of corpses numbly, mechanically following the giant beast’s body.
Heading towards the unknown distance.
"That’s Mengji’s ‘Undead Control’ ability, it can summon those who have died and turn them into its ‘soldiers’."
Captain Yan Wenbo’s voice came through the team channel.
Then team member Liu Yan said, "Now it seems like it’s a good thing we didn’t have to fight Mengji."
"I have a fear of crowded places."
Kang Shun laughed and then whispered, "Why don’t we all attack together? It would be faster, right?"
Dugu Changxin sneered, "That’s why you ‘transfer students’ should go back to school and learn again."
"Didn’t the teacher in tactics class tell you that the more mechas participate in the attack, the more likely mistakes will happen?"
"What’s the point of having many people when there’s only one giant beast? How many people can attack it at the same time?"
"Also, if everyone attacks the same target, what if a second or third giant beast appears at that time?"
Kang Shun chuckled and didn’t respond.
After a while passed.
He continued, "In high-level situations, if Captain Di takes action, it should be resolved quickly, right?"
Yan Wenbo whispered, "It’s true, but the whole underground city can’t rely only on Captain Di, right?"
"Just like the other day when he left the underground city for a mission, even if there was danger in the city, he couldn’t come back in time."
"So Captain Di only acts when things are out of control."
"Otherwise, he commands from the base, giving other Mecha Masters a chance to practice."
"Even though in this process, there will be injuries and deaths in battle."
"But everyone has gone through this."
"That’s why they say, if you’re afraid of death, don’t become a Mecha Master."
"Because we deal with death every day."
At that moment, a window popped up on Luo Yan’s screen.
Their team is getting ready to enter the battle arena.

A car stopped in front of the bank.
Yang Likai looked dark-faced as he led a group of people into the bank.
"Where is Li Chunlai? Get him out here!"
He didn’t go home.
He explained the situation to his father halfway.
A group of people and horses were sent to the bank to settle accounts with Li Chunlai.
Transport Youyin back to the underground city and then send her to the Exploration Legion.
During this process.
Apart from him and Luo Yan.
The only person who had the chance to contact Youyin was Li Chunlai.
Yang Likai almost lost his life in the morning because of this matter.
He is now holding back his anger.
He had already decided that as long as it was confirmed that Li Chunlai had leaked information, no matter what, he would first beat the jerk up before considering anything else.
The reason for not killing him.
Firstly, because this is an underground city, not on the surface.
Secondly, we need to uncover the mastermind behind the scenes through Li Chunlai.
Furthermore.
In order to prevent the same accident from happening again.
This time, Yang Zhen brought in his top bodyguard to protect his precious son.
To personally protect his beloved son.
Because of the warning from the giant beast.
The bank has basically stopped operating.
But the staff are still there.
When Silver the security guard heard that Yang Likai was looking for Li Chunlai, she not only did not dare to stop him but also willingly showed him the way.
They arrived at Li Chunlai’s office.
Yang Likai kicked the door open.
"Li Chunlai, come out now!" he yelled.
He shouted loudly.
As Yang Likai walked in confidently, he was surprised to see Li Chunlai lying on the ground.
He stood there in shock.
Then he made a hand gesture.
Someone approached to check on Li Chunlai.
"Young master, he’s dead."
Yang Likai said angrily, "Young master isn’t dead, I’m fine."
He squinted, "Did this fellow die?"
The henchman nodded, "He has no breath."
Next.
He picked up a letter held by Li Chunlai.
"Open it," said Yang Likai.
After a moment.
A farewell letter arrived in front of Yang Likai.
In the letter.
Li Chunlai admitted he got tempted, had a bad idea, and stole a piece of Youyin.
Afraid of being confronted by Yang Likai later on, he took medicine to commit suicide.
"Nonsense!"
Without thinking, Yang Likai said, "When he came this morning, he was so happy, he didn’t seem like he wanted to commit suicide."
"Damn it."
"We were a step too late."
"Li Chunlai committed suicide."
"Fine, want to cut off the clues?"
"Dream on!"
Yang Likai pointed to the body, "Go, take the body to Dr. Zhang for an autopsy right away."
"See what medicine Mr. Li was taking, then trace the source of the poison. I don’t believe we can’t find any clues."
"Also, have someone keep an eye on Dr. Zhang, don’t let anyone from the security department interfere."
"I’ll go greet the Local Land Bureau."
"Spread the word, if anyone dares to interfere, I will consider them an accomplice. I will make sure to get a piece of flesh from them even if I can’t kill them!"
Just then.
Suddenly, the underground city slightly shook.
The lights flickered.
Then it went out.
The whole city went dark.
Power supply temporarily stopped to provide power for the launch well.
Launch well, hatch number 7.
"Fixed support frame is connected, mecha is fully secured!"
"Final self-check of launch path for hatch number 7."
"Check completed, the line is clear."
"Power supply is sufficient…"
Through a series of voices.
Luo Yan felt a little nervous.
This is the first time using the attack courtyard.
In the team channel, Kang Shun laughed and said, "Little Luo, relax."
"Remember my previous advice?"
Luo Yan squeezed out two words in his throat, "Remember."
They heard over the broadcast, "Cabin 7 ready to attack."
"Countdown begins."
"10、9、8…"
"3、2、1。"
"Cabin 7, mecha ‘White Dragon,’ launch!"
