Fox Has No Malicious Intent

"The purplish-red glow, it's quite charming!"

Ansheng, riding on the European Wild Bull, smiled after listening to Jin Wu's reporting and information summary.

Specialization is key. While Lu Tiannan and the Forest Wolves had repeatedly ventured back and forth without finding any anomalies, Jin Wu promptly pinpointed the lone anomaly in Furui City.

"Seven kilometers ahead, left area, charming." Jin Wu, hearing Master Fuli's praise, proudly indicated the anomaly, his cheeks also revealing a proud expression.

However.

Zhang Lin, upon hearing Jin Wu's words, immediately raised his hand and elbowed Jin Wu's side, questioning with a hint of doubt, "You'd better be certain."

"Certain!"

Jin Wu spoke without thinking, but after the words were out, he pondered for a moment, "Certain...right?"

".......Remove the word 'right'." Zhang Lin rolled his eyes and bantered.

As Jin Wu's gemstone-eyed partner, Zhang Lin was well aware of Jin Wu's capabilities and limits.

Jin Wu's gemstone eyes don't make mistakes; the colors he sees are all due to light refraction. Different substances, when exposed to light, refract different hues.

And the light Jin Wu spoke of naturally refers to the special reaction of Spiritual Particles materials exposed to light.

The purplish-red glow may not necessarily indicate ruins, but there's definitely a source of Spiritual Particles material there.

During search missions, Jin Wu frequently misses the mark.

It's not that he's inaccurate, but the mission target is to make A cry before capturing them, yet Jin Wu often finds other Spirit Beasts. It's only when Zhang Lin and the others swarm in to make the Spirit Beasts cry, do they realize they've hit the wrong target...

After learning the ins and outs, the Spirit Beasts wasted no time in sending complaints to Jin Wu overnight.

"Mistaken..." Jin Wu, in his macho transformation, had his tail feathers tweaked by Zhang Lin, and immediately wore an embarrassed expression, no longer noticeably confident.

"No rush, anyway we've got the place booked; we'll just explore as we go."

Seeing Zhang Lin ruthlessly deal with Jin Wu, Ansheng nonchalantly waved his hand.

The earthquake-induced rift spans merely over ten kilometers in length, with ruins and ruins monsters hidden within the seismic gorge. With Jin Wu, Shasha, and Ansheng's Power of Will investigating, a slow search is bound to yield results.

"Moo....."

The European Wild Bull, carrying Master Fuli, traversed the entire city and arrived at the seismic fissure area. Its limbs trembled and it crawled with effort, letting out heavy breaths.

We've arrived.....brother, you'd better dismount! I can't endure this anymore.

Master Fuli's weight is modest, but he carries a Gravity Hammer in hand and dons a Triangular Hammer on his shoulder — tons in weight coupled with a group all pressing on the bull's back.

"Alright! Come home with me tomorrow night, then I'll find you two acres of good land for tilling....."

Seeing the exhausted European Wild Bull, Ansheng sighed slightly helplessly, choosing to dismount and proceed to the earthquake core zone to investigate the area of mutation.

"Shasha....."

As Ansheng dismounted, he called out to Shasha and Jin Wu trailing behind.

"Coming..." Shasha, upon hearing, leaped into the air, twisting several times before landing, transforming into a small four-legged shark, scurrying forward to lead the way.

"Hmm..... It's not here!"

Shasha raised her head, sniffing the air, before looking ahead at the gorge, shaking her head, she turned and glanced at Master Fuli:

"However, there's a strong diesel smell ahead; if my nose is correct, there might be food-snatching..."

In the gorge here, Shasha didn't catch the scent of that weak perfect creature, but detected something else. Three kilometers ahead, left side of the gorge, there is large machinery operation.

"Oh? Someone's here to snatch food?"

Ansheng blinked at the words, looking towards the direction Shasha indicated. The city was silent in the early morning, cold wind howling through the gorge, producing gusts of wind sounds.

In the location pointed by Shasha, there were nine or ten excavators lying helter-skelter, alongside several dump trucks.

"Miyel, does the word 'Dayun' on the front of the trucks mean Xia Country?"

Upon seeing that pile of engineering machinery, Ansheng's face twitched slightly, turning to Miyel to inquire.

"Yes, at our mine, Liberation and Shaanxi trucks are the main mining trucks. They're abundant and satisfying, carrying excessive weight of thirty to fifty tons is a common thing."

Miyel stepped forward, confidently stating: "The excavators and mining trucks on the opposite side must be from Rakshasa Country."

Xia Country dump trucks are notorious for being heavy-duty kings, if a truck doesn't exceed thirty to fifty tons, it wouldn't do justice to its surging torque.

What's crucial is that they're cheap to maintain. European mining trucks, once overloaded, are prone to error codes and are not favored by unscrupulous Rakshasa mine owners.

"Oh! Even unmanned systems..."

With a curious expression, Ansheng moved forward, feeling the temperature around the engine and checked the cockpit, discovering these engineering machines were all remotely controlled.

Ansheng jumped out of the cockpit, inadvertently stretching his leg, toppling the dump truck on the ground.

"Hit by a hundred-ton king for the first time..."

Chuckling softly, Ansheng returned to the group, acting as if nothing had happened, continuing to investigate by the gorge with Shasha and the others.

The Furui City earthquake was not minor, the seismic rift creating fissures from the city's interior, stretching over thirty kilometers towards the city's outskirts.

During the earthquake, not only did the ground tremble, but it was also accompanied by soil liquefaction and flow.

Numerous buildings in the city toppled, sliding into the gorge filling the fissures, forming uneven closed gorges. Some remained unsealed, becoming the gorge seen today.

Traveling through, glimpses of Forest Wolves' deployed pets and sampling drill marks were occasionally seen.

"Hmm? Master Fuli..."

"Seems I've found the target location....." Shasha, sniffing the air while leading the way, suddenly halted mid-step, sniffing the air intently ahead.

"...You found it?"

Ansheng was briefly stunned, glancing around. The area surrounding the gorge was silent, thawed moist soil covered the ground, engineering construction marks still visible.

Clearly, before their arrival, the ground had been plowed by Forest Wolves and machinery.

"Yes, it's right here....." Shasha stepped forward, once again manifesting her form as a red-haired elder sister, flipping and jumping into the gorge with almost thirty meters of depth difference.

Shasha fell to the ground, her arms wrapped in black skin, fingertips drew blade-like claws, commencing her digging.

Shasha continued digging towards the underground, tossing tons of soil to the front and back of the gorge.

"Found it!"

Shasha, sticking her head out from the pit, raised her hand high and, under the inquisitive gaze of others, slowly opened her dirty palm.

"Is there... something here?"

Ansheng strained his eyes, inspecting Shasha's palm filled with moist frozen soil, without seeing anything clear.

"Oh, right...."

With an odd expression, Shasha seemed to remember something, lifting her other arm, her palm gradually morphing, membrane-like transparent matter forming between her fingers.

"Look from the membrane, and you'll see....."

Shasha layered both hands, offering them to Master Fuli.

Through Shasha's finger membrane, Ansheng noticed a peculiar tree lying in Shasha's palm.

Straight-standing, its crown had countless bare tendrils slowly stretching out, the root zone like hundreds of octopus legs combined.

The trunk was formed by twisted root tendrils, with a core resembling an eye, filled with differently sized spherical balls, appearing mysterious and unpredictable.

"What kind of strange thing is this..." Ansheng was puzzled, filled with questions as he glanced at Shasha.

"Cells, perfect cells....." Shasha stated with a hint of oddness:

"Just a few dead cells remaining of perfection..."
