Chapter 234: The Easily Subdued Green Monster

Somewhere in the waters of the East.

The deep blue seawater rippled slightly, occasionally splashing up a few sprays of foam that burst into tiny, fine droplets, shimmering brilliantly under the sunlight like crystalline diamonds.

"Wow! So beautiful!"

On the beach, a young girl who seemed to be seeing the ocean for the first time exclaimed with a face full of joy.

The boy holding her hand looked in the direction of her gaze and said insincerely:

"It really is beautiful."

Seeming to detect the perfunctory tone of her boyfriend, the girl turned her head and rolled her eyes at him:

"Why are you so boring? We finally managed to come out for a trip, and you've been listless the whole time."

The boy shrank his neck and cried out in grievance: "It's not that I'm boring, it's that I'm cold! It's mid-winter, the seawater is so cold, and we're wading in it like this—are you sure we won't catch a cold?"

"So what if it's winter? Didn't we come here to escape the cold? The temperature here is over twenty degrees; where is it cold?"

"That's true, but it's also not much stronger than an ordinary person. Why don't we go save that young couple? They're about to be caught!"

"Besides, that monster is a bit stronger than an ordinary person, and the fish scales on its body have very strong defense. I heard that last time someone hit it with a brick, and it didn't cause any damage to the monster at all."

Immediately, he grabbed a simple folding lounge chair nearby, and while rushing toward the green monster, he folded the chair to form a metal frame that could barely be called a weapon.

That strike was indeed effective.

She didn't have time to complain about her boyfriend's violent actions, nor did she have time to worry about her wrist, which was pulled until it hurt, or her soaked clothes; she turned her head abruptly to look.

"Akun!"

Plus, since the monster had appeared once before, some people had a certain understanding of it and knew that the so-called monster wasn't that terrifying, so they weren't actually afraid in their hearts.

The modified human, known as the green monster and actually named Daocun Wenfu, roared in the Sakura language, and as he caught up to a short distance behind the two, he lunged forward violently.

"I am a member of the Emergency Defense Force. We just received a report, so we dispatched a drone to subdue this mutant monster."

"Let's go, everyone, let's charge together! A newbie monster like a goblin actually dares to take the initiative to rush into the human world and cause trouble—it's simply courting death!"

Before she could stand steady, she heard her boyfriend's voice trembling as he said quickly:

"Run... run!!"

Dali said earnestly while running and turning her head to look at the boy.

The next moment.

"It's a gun! There's a gun on the drone!"

"Damn Long Country people! Go to hell!"

But at this moment, the modified human was not deadlocked with the boy, so how could he be easily forced back by her.

They saw a humanoid monster covered in light green fish scales pouncing on the boyfriend, wrestling with him.

This thought flashed subconsciously through the girl's mind, but the next moment, she saw her boyfriend gasp in surprise while grabbing her arm and pulling her violently behind him.

Since when was your acting so realistic?

Blood splattered in the air!

By the time the modified human recovered from the sharp pain, the couple had already run more than ten meters away.

"Haha! All of you, go to hell!"

But no one said much; they just observed the monster lying on the ground from afar, and no one went over to check on the two injured young people.

The girl hadn't reacted to what had happened when she was pulled by the huge force in her boyfriend's hand, stumbling a few steps and nearly falling into the seawater.

Doubts arose in everyone's hearts.

"Hey! That's right!"

Just at that moment.

Seeing his girlfriend injured, the boy Akun was filled with shock and anger, and he kicked the modified human hard in the face.

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

The monster turned its head to dodge, but the force in its hands naturally dissipated, and it was knocked over by the boy as if he had unleashed his hidden potential.

"Ah!!"

They saw the green monster that had been charging forward with a crazed look just a moment ago now lying on the ground, its body twitching slightly.

At this time, a gentle and mellow middle-aged male voice suddenly came from the drone.

"Please keep your distance for now, be careful, and don't get hurt by the monster. Our people will arrive immediately."

Seeing this scene, Dali's blood instantly rushed to her head; not knowing where the courage came from, she rushed up in two steps and pounded the monster's head with her hands.

Seeing her boyfriend's "it's only natural" expression, the girl didn't dare to refute, and could only mutter in a low voice: "You're usually so afraid of the cold, but now that it's really cold, you think it's not cold. Boys, they really are a species that is hard to understand..."

But before he had run two steps, he saw a dozen Long Country figures rushing toward him.

"Shoo shoo shoo shoo!!"

"That monster doesn't look very powerful either; at most, it just looks scary. If we get chased, the two of us together might be able to beat it!"

"I hate it most when people show off their affection in front of me. I must kill you all!!"

A hand wrapped in small green scales grabbed the boy's pant leg, which was rolled up to his knees, pulling him off balance and nearly causing him to fall to the ground.

"Could it be that they guessed from the beginning that a monster would attack, so they were lying in wait nearby?"

They saw the modified human wave his large hand.

Hearing the sound of water behind him, the boy shouted: "You go first, I'll hold him off for a while!"

A loud 'bang' came from beside them.

One of the young men wearing a thin hoodie shouted quite chuunibyou-style.

Those dozen people were not afraid at all, waving all kinds of weapons as they charged forward.

Very soon, the police arrived at the beach, took the green monster away, and incidentally handled the scene simply.

The girl was pinned down by the monster, her hands barely gripping its wrists, struggling with extreme difficulty to resist the opponent's attack.

Someone caught a glimpse of a white shadow flashing past from above out of the corner of their eye.

Someone with sharp eyes discovered that the monster's four limbs were oozing scarlet blood.

"Quick! It's chasing after us!"

Dali exclaimed, hurriedly stopping, and turned around to stab the modifier's eyes with the small hairpin in her hand, wanting to use the same trick again to force the opponent back.

The monster's entire body was covered in light green scales, and it also carried some mucus similar to that on a fish's body; when a punch landed on it, it was like hitting cowhide soaked in lubricating oil, with absolutely no force being applied.

The violent power carried by the palm not only knocked the hairpin out of Dali's hand but also instantly fractured her arm, while the sharp nails on the hand also carved several deep and long wounds into her arm.

Dali gripped her boyfriend's hand tightly, and an unprecedented power erupted from her hand, making it impossible for the boy to pull away for a moment.

"Grab that monster!"

The next second.

The seawater ebbed and flowed, occasionally submerging his face, causing the boy's vision and hearing to be affected to a certain extent; he could only barely open his mouth and squeeze two words out from between his teeth with difficulty.

Several sharp, piercing sounds rang out in succession.

What he didn't expect was that the monster, which had just shown strong defensive power, seemed to be in extreme pain from that kick of his, instinctively letting go and covering its face while screaming.

……

The boy was silent for a moment.

Dali could clearly feel that her two punches had not caused any damage to the monster at all.

At this look, she instantly froze all over.

When someone takes the initiative to meet the enemy, some people will also muster up the courage.

"How is that possible? When the monster appeared a few days ago, it even hurt quite a few people; a prank couldn't possibly reach this level!"

"No! Let's go together!"

But after all, the modifier's body size was not large, and apart from its ugly appearance, it didn't really look that terrifying; some bold people didn't run away but were excitedly filming videos on the spot.

When a group encounters an unexpected situation, many people often have a herd mentality.

"Everyone, don't panic."

Although someone called the police, the fact that a drone appeared so quickly was too exaggerated in terms of efficiency.

"What did you say?!"

The modifier, which was Daocun Wenfu, looked angrily at the backs of the two, took steps to chase after them, and roared in his mouth:

The boy hurriedly pulled his girlfriend Dali's hand, and the two continued to run away together.

"Except for the green fish scales on its body, it looks basically the same as a human, right? Could it be that someone is deliberately disguising themselves to play a prank?"

At this time, the vast majority of people on the beach had discovered the existence of the modifier, and many people who were closer fled in terror at the first moment.

The young girl named Dali only felt a large handful of cold seawater, carrying a not-insignificant force, splashing onto her body from behind.

Although all these changes happened in an instant, Dali also reacted, knowing that some kind of emergency must have occurred.

The once occasionally brave Daocun Wenfu, this time not only did not panic but rather laughed quite crazily: "Weak humans, actually daring to take the initiative to fight back; it seems the performance just now made you think I am nothing more than this? Then I... will let you witness the power of a New Human!"

And then he held Dali's hand back, his tone steady and firm, just like swearing an oath to the gods, saying word by word:

"Good! We'll be together!"

"Dali! Run quickly!"

When someone runs away, everyone might follow suit in a swarm, completely unable to organize any resistance.

Dali reacted very quickly; after throwing two punches, she also completely sobered up and immediately thought of the only weapon on her body, then pulled a small and cute metal hairpin from the top of her head and stabbed it toward the monster's eyes with the pointed end.

"I saw someone on the internet saying that a monster appeared by the sea a couple of days ago; it seems it's true!"

Someone exclaimed, and a dozen people subconsciously stopped their steps; the young couple who had already run far away also stopped and turned their heads to look at the white drone hovering in mid-air.

Dali was also dragged along and stumbled two steps.

From the monster's appearance, the pursuit of the young couple, everyone preparing to help, to the drone suddenly appearing and subduing the monster with several consecutive shots, it seemed like a long time, but in reality, a total of less than two minutes had passed.

The young girl's exclamation coincided with the exclamations made by others, almost resounding through the clouds, instantly alerting many tourists on the beach.

"Run quickly!"

The boy turned his head, looking murderous, and was just about to say something, but saw his girlfriend suddenly open her eyes wide, a trace of terror flowing in her gaze, just like seeing a ghost in broad daylight.

Dali pulled her boyfriend's hand, helped him get up, and the two ran toward the shore together.

Now seeing the young man pick up a weapon, quite a few people mustered up their courage and picked up various things, rushing toward the beach.
