Full-Time Public Enemy

Chapter 186 - 186: The Bird Catcher

"Radiation Scouring!" This guy actually still wasn't dead. rate the chest, but it had only ended up half-embedded.

Lastly, and most dangerously, the box contained a piece of mysterious remains. No one knew if something unexpected might happen to it during Quantum Teleportation!

Fortunately, the outcome was positive: Chen Gu survived.

He picked up the box and checked Man Suling's condition. The she-wolf looked miserable, her nose blackened. She was merely unconscious, however, and her injuries were not fatal.

Chen Gu administered a healing agent to her. The medicine quickly took effect. Aided by the robust constitution of the Werewolves of the Magic Mountain, Man Suling soon regained consciousness. After telling her to "be careful," Chen Gu quickly headed to the trap.

The trap was four meters deep. Crudely set up by Juglans in haste, its bottom was lined with sharp spikes. The ape had been impaled by two of them—one through the thigh and another through the right shoulder.

The creature was already unconscious. When Chen Gu treated him and pulled out the spikes, the pain woke the ape.

Amidst its agonizing cries, Chen Gu efficiently bandaged the wounds and administered another healing agent.

Then, before Chen Gu could catch his breath, he heard Man Suling let out a startled cry from above!

Chen Gu gestured for the ape to be quiet and scaled the edge of the trap like a large gecko.

Above, Man Suling was like a wolf poised to strike. Crouching on all fours, her tail held tightly behind her, she moved sideways before a group of people, menacingly baring her teeth. In truth, she was seeking an opportunity to pounce.

In front of her, a group of specially armed thugs was slowly closing in.

These individuals had evidently used some kind of genetic agent. Their limbs were insect-like—long and thick, somewhat out of proportion to their torsos. It was clear at a glance that they were far more dangerous than ordinary humans.

They were well-trained and didn't rush to engage Man Suling. Instead, they coordinated their approach, steadily pressing her. Man Suling grew agitated. She wanted to retaliate but was constantly threatened by multiple weapons, forcing her to retreat step by step.

Chen Gu vaulted over the edge. Man Suling growled resentfully at the strange figures before retreating behind Chen Gu, whimpering softly as if she were a beaten dog complaining to her master: They're bullying me!

Chen Gu casually stroked the wolf's head; the fur was soft and fluffy, a delightful sensation.

The insect-like figures stopped, then parted to form a path, allowing an old man with pale, vacant eyes, casually holding a peculiar handgun, to slowly step forward.

Concerned despite his injuries, the ape endured the pain and climbed up from below, joining Chen Gu and Man Suling.

The old man gave a single nod to the three of them. His manners were poised and polite, hardly befitting someone from this dark and barbaric underworld.

"Greetings to the three of you. I am the Night Demon King."

Ever since this seemingly peaceful old man appeared, Chen Gu's Mind Belief had been issuing continuous, frantic psychic warnings!
