Chapter 1178: Strange Red Cat

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Duan Juan quickly took out a gas mask and put it on to prevent herself from breathing in any poisonous gas.

In the post-apocalyptic era, gas masks were standard equipment for the people who often traveled out of the bases. Almost everyone carried a gas mask, in case they ran into some kind of poisonous gas.

Shui Mingjun and Yan Huiguang, who both spent a lot of time in the outside world, silently took out their masks and put them on.

As the black smoke covered a wider and wider area, the surrounding plants were all turned into sands, blown into the air. Gradually, the whole area became a desert.

“So, it’s a desert this time?” Lin Qiao watched the smoke grow larger and the area change. The wind spread the smoke and brought it toward the trees that she and her friends were standing on.

Seeing that, Lin Qiao and Duan Juan both leaped backward and quickly left the tree. Next, the surrounding trees started to wither and turn into sand slowly. Only the higher-leveled mutated trees were maintaining themselves.

Soon, the surrounding mutated trees all turned into sand and collapsed. Only two level-five trees were left standing there, releasing the energy in their nuclei to keep themselves safe.

The day they ran out of energy would be the day they died.

“What the hell is coming out? Why does this smoke contain such a horrible power?” Duan Juan and Lin Qiao moved onto a tree hundreds of meters away. Watching everything in front of them turn into sand, they were both surprised.

Lin Qiao steadied herself, then looked at those cracks silently. A couple of seconds later, she said, “It’s coming out!”

The others landed near her at that moment. Hearing what she said, they all fixed their eyes on the cracks.

Soon, the smoky cracks on the highway had grown meters wide. The three-hundred-meter-long sector of the highway was covered with giant cracks like that before the ground stopped shaking.

“Roar…” But right then, a weird sound was heard from the underground, which attracted everyone.

They soon saw a huge, blood-red claw reach out of a crack and sink into the ground loudly, leaving a few deep cuts on the cement road.

“Red? Such a large claw!” Lin Qiao saw the claw and narrowed her eyes.

The red claw was at least as large as a car. As the strong arm propped on the ground, a gigantic and red head was squeezed out of the crack. That weird-looking creature had a pair of curved horns, underneath which was a pair of round ears. It looked around with blood-red eyes.

That claw was huge enough, yet its head was three times larger than the claw. The crack on the ground wasn’t even large enough for its head to come out, so it needed to squeeze itself out.

The head of that creature actually looked like the head of a cat. It didn’t have fluffy fur though. Covering its claw and face was thick, hairless, blood-red skin. The erect pupils in its round, red eyes made it look very much like an enormous, strange cat.

“Roaroooooo…” The strange, red cat opened its huge mouth and uttered a roar toward the sky, baring its sharp teeth. A thick stream of dark smoke came out of its mouth along with the roar. Then, it struggled to pull another claw out of the ground, then the third, the fourth, and then… a fifth one!

“Oh… Those aren’t all its claws, right?” Yan Xiao had a bad feeling when she saw the fifth claw came out.

Next, the giant cat struggled upward even more intensely than before. The crack on the ground was slowly widened, exposing the rest of its body. Abruptly, it shrank downward slightly and then lunged out, caused a thunderous sound.

Bang! The ground was blown open and it finally came out.

“Roar…” A six-footed, blood-red, hairless, enormous cat landed on the ground, wagging its tail which looked like the tail of a snake. It seemed to be excited. After roaring at the sky, it took a few circles swinging its tail, then finally stopped moving and twitched its nose to sniff at the air.

Watching its movements, the others on the scene automatically held their breath and restrained their vibes, in case the cat discovered them and attacked them.

Anyhow, what they were worried about didn’t happen. The six-footed cat, which was at least eight meters tall and ten meters long, wagged its over twenty meters long tail and sniffed around, then leaped toward the other direction. In the midair about twenty meters away from the ground, it suddenly disappeared.

“It… It’s gone!” The people didn’t see that coming. They thought the creature would cause a stir in the area or at least some loud noises. However, it only made a few circles after coming out from underground, and then leaped into the sky and disappeared.

Lin Qiao knitted her brows as she kept staring at the ground. The space inside the cracks had become quiet again. She carefully observed the crack where the cat crawled out from, then suddenly blinked and turned to the other direction.

In that area, a giant, mutated bird rose from a tree that was turning into sand, hovering in the air and then landing back on the ground.

‘Eh?’

Lin Qiao carefully looked at that bird. The bird was standing on the sanded ground but was suffering no harm at all.

The bird was only at level two. However, it stood on the sanded ground perfectly unharmed, without being affected by whatever turned the whole area into the desert.

Puff! Puff! Puff! Some noises were heard from the other side too.

The bird rose again, then spread its wings and flew toward that area.

“Errrr!” After flapping its wings a few times, the bird suddenly thrust both legs into the sanded ground, and then rose into the sky again. A rabbit that was as large as a medium-sized dog was held in its claws as it flew away.

“They’re alive,” Lin Qiao murmured with surprise.

“What are alive?” Duan Juan didn’t understand.

“The bird and the rabbit. The bird is only at level-two while the rabbit has no level at all. It’s just mutated. They were in the dark smoke, but they survived,” Lin Qiao pointed at the bird that was flying far away. It meant that the black smoke was only harmful to plants, and not to animals.

“Is that so?” With confusion, Duan Juan looked at where she was pointing at, then at the three-hundred square meter area that had already turned into a desert. Suddenly, she saw a few cat-sized rats dart out of the sand and flee into the forest.

Those rats did seem unharmed.
