The First Evolution

Chapter 210: Setting Them Up

From the plot point of view, it should be that the unusual energy was starting to deplete. Hence the attraction towards the magical creatures became weaker too.

In a deeper sense, it would be that the Westminster Abbey Area had contractors carrying out their activities at the time, so the Space had especially weakened it to ensure that the contractors had the possibility of successfully completing their missions.

Just at this moment, the [Drone] captured another disgusting thing. It was that another team that was still following behind them.

There were 5 members in this team. The leader was called Durun. It was said that in reality, he was a member of a circus. His specialty was knife throwing. He was rather strong, and he had the “follow me” attitude, which got much support from his teammates.

Faced with this situation, Fang Linyan pulled Lipper aside. 3 of them discussed a little and finally came up with a very sinister plan.

***

10 Minutes later,

The scout following Team Fantasy noticed something and hurriedly returned to report Durun.

“Boss, there seems to be a situation.”

Durun immediately asked,

“What’s the matter?”

The scout was called Coles. He was a hunter in real life. He was good at tracking and concealing himself. He didn’t realize that his whereabouts was exposed by the [Drone]’s observation as he whispered to Durun,

“There was a member in Team Fantasy that separated from the team. He must have used the excuse of needing to relieve himself, but I saw him secretly burying something before running back to join them.”

After saying that, Coles could actually play a 3D holographic beside him. Even though it was a bit blurry, it was clear that he was a qualified scout.

It could be seen in the video that a round-faced black man put his hands in his trouser pockets and left the team while whistling seemingly relaxed. He was unbuckling his belt as he walked into a house.

But as soon as he got out of the sight of others, he glanced around sneakily, and then took out something from his arms and stuffed it into the drawer next to him. They could only see vaguely that it was a black and white stone. Then, he actually took a piss before returning to his team.

Seeing this scene, another person in the team immediately exclaimed,

“Isn’t this that Daniel guy? The stone fragment that he just hid is unique! It’s half black and half white! Moreover, only some special mission items can’t be hidden in the private space. Could it be the fragment of King’s Stone? Is this Daniel planning to keep it for himself? “

As soon as the other people heard about the King’s Stone, they were immediately excited. However, Durun was a cautious person and asked Coles to ensure that there were no traps around the area. He only led the others into the room after being sure that the room was safe.

Because of the precedent of Daniel trying to keep the stone to himself, Durun called the other 3 people in the team over before opening the drawer to show fairness. As expected, there was a strange black-white stone inside.

It was after Durun picked up the stone that he felt something wasn’t right! It felt very loose, so he held it up to observe it confusedly. He was immediately chilled to the bone. It turned out that this so-called “King’s Stone” was just a piece of black stone and white stone glued together.

Not only that, it was glued together carelessly. Probably because the glue was very little. One had to pinch it together to make it seem seamless…

The other 3 people also gathered around by now, but it was right at this moment, the 2 stones exploded!

Needless to say, the 4 of them were powerful contractors after all. They immediately took action to protect themselves.

Fortunately, the explosion this time did not seem to be strong. Specifically, it was like a large smoke bomb that exploded. The room was filled with white smoke.

Not only that but everyone’s nostrils were filled with a peculiar smell. Durun, who was the closest, felt some sort of mucus sticking on him. It emitted a kind of mysterious smell. He couldn’t help but shout furiously,

“Oh, Shit, did these bastards put a bunch of shit in there?”

The group of people rushed out of the house, disgraced. They seemed to realize that Team Fantasy just played a prank to warn them because nobody was hurt. They were only covered in some sort of yellow mucus that felt like an expired egg. It was fishy and smelled unpleasant.

Naturally, they took some drinking water out of the storage space to wash their bodies.

But 2 minutes later, Coles suddenly felt that something was wrong. He was a scout after all, so his perception was definitely not low. The feeling he got was like the sultry heat before the storm in summer, which made him hard to breathe.

In this case, Coles immediately warned loudly,

“Everyone be careful. I think something isn’t right!”

The 4 immediately hid in a small house next to them.

Sure enough, just 10 seconds after his warning, a figure appeared in the fog not far away. It was the black man Daniel. But this time, he had a dull expression and was running fast.

Daniel probably escaped from the fog for a dozen meters, then a giant bird emerged out of it!

This giant bird was covered in golden feathers. It was as big as a rhinoceros and had 4 wings, the front pair being bigger while the hind pair seemed smaller. Its beak was hooked like an eagle and shone like it was made of metal. The feathers were fluffy and shiny, gleaming with the radiance of life.

Not only that, it had a thick tail. Although it was also covered in feathers, some naturalists named this feather scaled feathers. It meant that the feathers were a combination of scales and feathers.

Of course, something even more impressive was its legs. It was different from those thin legs of other birds. This giant bird’s legs could only be described as thick and muscular. The posture it ran in was similar to that of an ostrich, and it was extremely fast.

This mystical giant bird with 4 wings and a long tail was, of course, no other than the thunderbird!

Right as Daniel jumped here, he suddenly stopped. The giant bird was chasing closely initially. After it got close, it pecked ferociously!

A dazzling electric spark appeared on the beak of this giant bird with that peck!

Then an odd thing happened. With this peck, the giant bird’s beak seemed to penetrate through his chest effortlessly, then Daniel faded quickly and disappeared into the air.

After witnessing all this, Duren immediately blurted out,

“This guy is not a real person, but an illusion! Right, Lipper is a clever illusionist. What are they trying to do?”

The thunderbird was a little puzzled when it saw its prey disappeared into thin air. It tilted its head looking around before flapping its wings, looking like it suddenly smelled something. Then, it suddenly rushed in the direction where the bomb exploded previously.

Although the house looked quite solid, it seemed like a piece of paper under the thunderbird’s freakish strength. A wall fell right when it bumped on it.

Then the thunderbird stuck its head into the house. It was enraged when it smelled the strange smell. The feathers on its body fluffed out, making it look 30% bigger. Blue lightning even sparked on its body!

At the same time, it made a hoarse “quack“, withdrew its head and looked around suspiciously.

Obviously, the fact that Daniel’s phantom disappeared before was now completely at the back of its brain. Right now, its head was filled with the peculiar smell — It was the smell usually left behind by a male thunderbird in heat when it tried to provoke another!

Although this thunderbird didn’t have a mate yet, this kind of thing still made it feel unbearable. It was like provoking an unmarried hot-headed guy by saying “screw your wife” a hundred times. The guy would also lose his temper and pick up a stool rushing toward you.

Then, with its developed sense of smell, it found another source of the peculiar smell. So, the thunderbird screamed angrily and rushed toward the small house that Durun’s team was hidden in. In order to survive, Durun’s group could only counterattack the best they could manage. Thus, a big battle began.

***

Of course, the director of this good movie was no other than Team Fantasy, Fang Linyan, and Robbie.

Robbie had prepared a potion to lure thunderbirds before because his original plan was to find a dog and smear the potion on the dog. The dog was supposed to attract the Thunderbird’s attention while he went into the Thunderbird’s nest to retrieve his suitcase by himself.

This plan seemed good on paper, but in reality, the biggest problem was that not even a dog in the magical world could buy him much time. The thunderbird was on the high end of the magical creature food chain due to its high lethality.

So, Robbie’s potion became an important part of this plan.

The arms expert in Team Fantasy, Kurt, transformed a smoke bomb into an explosive trap.

Lipper provided the illusion.

Daniel did the most dangerous thing – shooting at the thunderbird from a distance. He was responsible for attracting its hatred to himself, then he turned to the back of the house next to him to temporarily make the thunderbird lose sight of him.

When the thunderbird rushed over, what it saw was the illusion of Daniel running, so it naturally chased the illusion.

And Fang Linyan was responsible for suggesting the whole idea.
