The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 12: Where did the stray dog come from?

Luo Hang yawned out of boredom, looking at Zhang Tao who was driving and glancing at Captain sitting in the back seat.

"Captain, do we really have to go there?" he asked.

"Just to take a look, maybe there's a clue," Leng Yuwei replied expressionlessly.

Luo Hang rolled his eyes but didn't say anything. He didn't believe Su Chen would be there.

They came out this time for a mission investigation and to find Su Chen. Leng Yuwei was worried that the investigation was related to Su Chen and wanted to notify him in advance if they found him.

Their target was the place where they first met Su Chen, although the possibility of finding him there was slim, they had no other place to look.

In such a big world, it's not easy to find a few people hiding.

"Is this investigation really related to him? His subordinates are indeed strong, but not strong enough to sweep the surrounding Mutant Beasts," Luo Hang still had some doubts.

Normally, that would be true, but Su Chen was not an ordinary person.

Leng Yuwei looked out the window with a deep gaze. "I have a feeling that he's not simple."

They arrived in the small city after two hours of driving. Compared to other big cities and their Gathering Place, this place was considered big.

They parked the car in a hidden place and walked into the city. It was suicide to drive into the city with the engine noise attracting Mutant Beasts from kilometers away.

The three of them were fully armed and quietly entered the city, quickly arriving at the place where they last met Su Chen. Unfortunately, they didn't see him.

"I told you he wouldn't be here. This place is not suitable for living, except for those who were expelled from the Gathering Place and those crazy mutants. How could ordinary people..." Luo Hang's words were cut off by Zhang Tao's hand over his mouth.

"Shh!" Zhang Tao made a gesture and pointed to a corner not far away where a black shadow appeared.

Luo Hang wasn't stupid and gave Zhang Tao and Leng Yuwei a look. He drew his knife. Shooting here would attract more Mutant Beasts. Close combat was the best choice.

Of course, the premise was to see what the opponent was. If it was a first-order Mutant Beast, he wasn't very afraid.

When they got closer and still couldn't see what the opponent was, the black shadow rushed towards them.

"It's a mutant, be careful!" Leng Yuwei, the strongest, discovered the true identity of the opponent, a mutant girl.

Her clothes were tattered, with strips of cloth hanging on her body. She had many wounds, and the liquid flowing out was not red blood but a green liquid, which was disgusting. Her skin was also ulcerated to varying degrees, making it unbearable to look at.

This was a mutant!

Not only animals mutated, but humans as well. After humans mutated, there were only two results: one was to survive and become Transcendent, and the other was to fail and become a mutant.

Mutants were not recognized by humans. They lost themselves and became a group of monsters that only knew how to eat, just like Mutant Beasts, and were hunted by humans.

This time, a first-order mutant appeared, and Leng Yuwei breathed a sigh of relief. She threw a dagger at the mutant's eye socket.

Splat!

The dagger pierced the mutant's eye socket quickly and accurately, but the mutant had no pain. She still opened her stinky mouth towards Leng Yuwei, wanting to eat her.

Luo Hang seized the opportunity and stabbed the mutant's heart. One stir and the mutant finally died.

To kill a mutant, the brain and heart must be dealt with. One cannot be missing.

Some people didn't know this and just smashed the mutant's head, thinking it was over. But with the heart providing power, the headless mutant killed that person.

"The brain and heart of mutants have a certain probability of producing energy crystals. Let's see if this one has any," Leng Yuwei said.

Luo Hang squatted down and began to dig out the energy crystals. This kind of rough work couldn't be done by Captain.

Soon, he smiled. "Captain, we hit the jackpot. There are energy crystals in both the brain and heart."

Luo Hang's hand now had two rice-sized energy crystals. They looked small but could provide a lot of energy. Even if they went back, they could exchange them for a lot of Hope Coins.

"Not bad..."

Just as Leng Yuwei praised Luo Hang, a scream reached their ears. Someone was nearby!

"Such a miserable scream, could it be a second-order Mutant Beast, or a second-order mutant?" Luo Hang guessed.

"Let's go take a look. If we can help, we will. If we can't, we'll retreat," Leng Yuwei said. She didn't like to take advantage of others.

The three of them approached and immediately saw a team of five people screaming in agony as they were being bitten by a dog. One of them had half of their buttocks missing, bleeding profusely.

The three of them looked at each other, wondering what was going on and where the wild dog came from.

They had seen mutated dogs before, but this was definitely not one of them. This dog looked like an ordinary dog without any mutations.

They couldn't believe it. Were there still mutated animals in this world?

"I know what's going on. This must be a dog that has undergone internal mutations. Its appearance hasn't changed much, but you can see that its speed is faster than that of the first-order Transcendent Captain of that team. This must be a mutated dog," Luo Hang said.

Leng Yuwei carefully observed for a while and agreed with Luo Hang's guess. It was hard to believe that an ordinary dog could dodge the attacks of a first-order Transcendent.

The dog was very fast, constantly circling around them, targeting their buttocks. In no time, two of them had half of their buttocks missing, which looked very painful.

If Su Chen had not given the command to the hunting dog to be on alert instead of killing, these five people would have died a long time ago.

The hunting dog in alert mode would attack, but it would not be fatal unless the opponent had the power to threaten the hunting dog, in which case the hunting dog would launch a full-scale attack!

"Alert, intruders have entered the edge of the base, and a hunting dog is engaging in combat."

The system's alarm sounded in Su Chen's mind, but he remained calm. He had upgraded all five hunting dogs to the early third-order, which had cost him a lot of energy points, but it was definitely worth it.
