Chapter 168: The Evil Chicken Fantasizes About a Grand Future

Sun Xiao hesitated only briefly.

He immediately got up and chased after the evil creatures.

The fact that he even hesitated wasn't like him at all.

The livestream chat exploded.

"Once again, I'm witnessing the streamer courting death."

"Brother Sun, I hereby crown you the King of Courting Death."

"The evil horde suddenly changing direction, there's definitely something wrong. Yanhai City is in danger."

A group of citizens hiding in the basement of Yanhai City were anxious. Originally, the evil horde had been charging straight ahead, giving them a glimmer of hope. Now, with the sudden change in direction, it was as if the evil creatures had become intelligent, and that was terrifying.

Although Sun Xiao was willing to sacrifice his life to uncover the truth about the evil creatures, he wasn't tired of living.

Naturally, he had to be cautious.

Bent at the waist, taking small, careful steps, he followed behind. With his current physique, he wouldn't even qualify as a snack for the evil creatures. As long as he didn't actively seek death, they wouldn't notice him.

Special Department, Monitoring Division.

A group of employees were busy, constantly observing the monitoring data.

"The evil creatures have changed direction and are spreading eastward."

"What are they trying to do? Do evil creatures have tactics now? Or is there something waiting for them in the east?"

Jin He Li's expression was grave.

Her own abilities were weak, and she could only handle technical work. With the evil creatures heading towards Yanhai City, she could only observe the latest developments from the Monitoring Division.

Upon discovering the change in the evil creatures' movements, she immediately informed One-Eyed Man.

She had also transferred Old Chen and the others from the Research Department, along with the fragment, to the Special Department's underground secret base. The defenses there were extremely strong, impenetrable even by One-Eyed Man and his team.

What was most important in this world?

Talent, of course.

Outside.

One-Eyed Man and the others were waiting for the arrival of the evil creatures when Jin He Li's voice reached their ears, informing them of the change in direction.

Lin Daoming chuckled. "Perhaps the evil creatures know we're waiting for them, so they cleverly changed their target."

"Stop dreaming," Liu Haichan said, looking at him. For someone so old to still daydream was truly terrifying.

Heng Jianqiu pondered for a moment. "Say, if the evil creatures' ultimate goal isn't Yanhai City, where could it be?"

Everyone fell into deep thought.

It wasn't that Heng Jianqiu's words were particularly insightful, but rather the realization that they weren't the only ones prone to daydreaming. Even Heng Jianqiu indulged in it.

One-Eyed Man remained silent.

The evil creatures would definitely not give up on Yanhai City. As for why they changed direction, perhaps they received instructions from some other entity.

Old Chen had said that given the significance of the fragment, there was definitely a terrifying existence backing the evil creatures.

"Everyone, stay alert! Don't harbor any illusions. The evil creatures will definitely come." One-Eyed Man shouted to all the members.

He looked around, searching for Lin Fan. Damn it, where had he gone? He had looked for Lin Fan just before the evil creatures approached, but unfortunately, he couldn't find him or his companions. He had no idea where they had run off to.

Brother, this is a crucial moment. Don't mess around!

"Yes!"

All the members stood on the rooftop, gazing intently into the distance. They were waiting for the arrival of the evil creatures. A fierce battle was unavoidable.

Of course, some of these members were fresh graduates from the Fourth Academy, newly assigned to Yanhai City. To say they weren't nervous would be a lie.

When their parents learned about the situation in Yanhai City, they contacted them, urging them to return. But as powerful graduates of the Fourth Academy, they couldn't just leave. It would be a loss of face, and they would be labeled cowards.

There was no other way.

Just fight hard.

"Xiao Lu, you seem a bit nervous."

"Do I? I'm not."

Xiao Lu had just graduated from the Fourth Academy. When he was assigned to Yanhai City, he wanted to show off his skills, hone his abilities in battle, and become a powerful figure in the eyes of others.

He never imagined he would encounter the migration of evil creatures to Yanhai City. This was a huge challenge for him.

The Evil Cockroach Demon incident hadn't scared him.

He had barely survived.

But the current situation was much more complex, fraught with danger.

His parents had called him, crying and begging him to leave Yanhai City. He had wavered for a moment, wanting to leave, but then he thought it through.

He couldn't back down.

Since he had become a member of the Yanhai City Special Department, he had to bravely confront the evil creatures.

News reporters shouldered their cameras, recording the surrounding scenes.

People watching the live broadcast clenched their fists, cheering for the Special Department members.

"Go for it!"

In the suburbs.

"Lin Fan, you're so amazing."

Xiao Bao and Old Zhang sat on Lin Fan's back as he did push-ups. The weight on him felt like nothing, like two feathers.

Lin Fan said, "If you cultivate regularly, you can be as strong as me."

"Xiao Bao, Lin Fan is right. You need to cultivate regularly. Of course, you also need my help. If I administer acupuncture, the cultivation effect will be even better," Old Zhang said proudly.

Xiao Bao seemed to understand, but not really.

He didn't understand what cultivation meant, but he would never forget the day Lin Fan punched a hole through the arcade machine. It was terrifying. Even as the future richest man, he didn't dare to be reckless.

Later, they sat on a picnic blanket, eating the food Xiao Bao had brought.

Old Zhang ate happily.

"Delicious."

"This is so good."

"That's also delicious."

Xiao Bao said happily, "Of course it's all delicious. I specially had someone buy this for today's camping trip."

The surrounding bodyguards were envious. The price of this food was several times their monthly salary.

Poor people couldn't afford it.

Only the rich could enjoy such delicacies.

Being friends with Young Master Xiao Bao was truly fortunate. They couldn't even describe how envious they were. They were practically turning into lemons.

The Evil Chicken squatted obediently.

Its earlier crowing was meant to attract the evil creatures. Humans couldn't understand its calls; it was a language used to communicate with other evil creatures.

So what if you're strong?

I, the heroic Evil Chicken, have led the evil horde here. With their overwhelming numbers, they will surely crush you, you lowly and foolish humans. From the moment you slaughtered my fellow evil creatures in front of me and forced me to eat their flesh, your fate was sealed.

And I, the Evil Chicken, will become a true hero.

Worshipped by countless fellow evil creatures.

Standing at the pinnacle of evil.

Lost in fantasy, the Evil Chicken was completely carried away.

Suddenly, it felt the rope around its neck tighten. It wasn't that the rope itself was tighter, but that the foolish human had pulled it closer. Such a rude gesture angered the Evil Chicken.

"Hen, this food is delicious. Try some." Lin Fan placed half a piece of food in front of the chicken.

The Evil Chicken looked at Lin Fan, then lowered its head and ate the food.

Foolish human, I'll let you be arrogant for a little while longer.

I, the heroic Evil Chicken, have led you to the abyss. When the evil creatures I summoned devour you, you'll know how truly great I am, living right beside you.

Hmm?

Not bad, this food tastes good.

Seeing that the hen enjoyed the food, Lin Fan smiled with satisfaction. He liked sharing good things with his pet.

"Viewers, I've taken a shortcut and gotten ahead of the evil creatures. I'll find a hidden spot to hide and risk my life to reveal the true face of the evil creatures to everyone."

Sun Xiao held his phone, not following directly behind the evil creatures, but taking a shortcut to get ahead of them. He pointed the camera towards the distance.

But at that moment, he suddenly noticed someone in the distance.

"Holy crap! Why would anyone be in the suburbs at a time like this?" Sun Xiao exclaimed.

The livestream chat instantly exploded.

"Awesome, truly awesome. The evil horde is migrating, and they're camping."

"Their luck is terrible. If the evil horde hadn't changed direction, they would have been fine."

"Brother Sun, warn them to run before the evil creatures arrive!"

Sun Xiao looked at the comments and agreed.

Just as he was about to get up, the ground trembled, and dust billowed in the distance. He immediately dropped back to the ground, aiming his phone at the approaching cloud.

"The evil creatures are here. It's too late to warn them."

Sun Xiao lay there helplessly. There was nothing he could do. He had already calculated the distance. It would take him some time to reach them, and within that time, the evil creatures would definitely reach them first.

By then, let alone saving others, he would probably be caught up in it as well.

The livestream chat exploded.

"Brother Sun did his best."

"Sigh, what kind of mentality do you need to go camping during an evil creature migration? This is suicide."

"You reap what you sow. This is a living example. I hope they don't die too horribly."

Netizens watching the live broadcast sighed.

This was a deadly situation.

Seeing such a massive horde of evil creatures, they were too shocked to speak. Only someone like Sun Xiao, prepared and hidden in the distance, could remain safe. Of course, even he was in danger.

"Earthquake," Xiao Bao said in surprise.

Lin Fan and Old Zhang looked towards the approaching cloud of dust, so thick they couldn't see what was inside.

The bodyguards responsible for protecting Xiao Bao felt their hairs stand on end.

"Load your weapons and prepare for battle!"

"Young Master Xiao Bao, the evil creatures are passing through here. We need to retreat!" the bodyguard captain said urgently.

When they arrived, he had carefully analyzed the situation. Based on the evil creatures' route, they shouldn't have passed through here. But now that the evil creatures had appeared, things were serious.

With their strength…

Facing the evil creatures…he wasn't bragging…

They would be instantly killed.

Of course, it would be them being killed instantly.
