Chapter 864: Chapter 34: Eyes in the City

“Oh? Yang Yangyang is back?”

Zhang Xiaoman was somewhat surprised.

As the temporary Resident of Guleng Star, Yang Yangyang rarely returns unless it’s for the daily transfer of supplies.

Now, rushing here to find him, he must have encountered something important.

“Alright, I got it. I’ll head over there myself. You go back first.”

He acknowledged with a nod, then sensed Yang Yangyang’s location, and instantly vanished from sight.

On the other side, on Seven Star Island.

Yang Yangyang was lying on a medical bed inside the Medical Department, accompanied by the siblings Mo Li and Mo Qi, undergoing a thorough medical examination.

“Xiao Shun, I’m really fine now, there’s no need to keep checking. The injuries were healed by your Recovery Spell, and now it’s just a few scrapes. We’re good enough…”

He looked helplessly at a man in a white Daring Clothes, who was none other than the head of the Medical Department, Xiao Shun.

Xiao Shun stood up from his chair, walked to his side, glanced at several nearby instruments, and said:

“Heh, heh, don’t blame me, it’s Elder Liu’s orders. Guleng Star is an outer planet after all. If you weren’t injured, just a walk through the sterilization room would suffice. But since you’re injured this time, you can’t be let off so easily. A full-body examination is necessary.”

As he spoke, he patted Mo Qi on the shoulder.

“You two also be sure to take protective measures, don’t be careless, or it’ll be troublesome if this guy spreads some virus to you.”

The siblings nodded in unison and continued to focus on their work.

These two are also veterans of the Medical Department, having followed Xiao Shun since the first batch, and have been part of numerous rescue missions, with high hopes of becoming Awakeners in the future.

On the medical bed, upon hearing these words, Yang Yangyang stopped arguing, lying there with a resigned look, letting them deal with him.

At this moment, his expression showed a mix of lingering fear and subtle delight.

His mind drifted to what happened earlier on Guleng Star and his eyes couldn’t help but show a glimmer of anticipation.

Just then, a figure silently appeared beside them, leaving everyone startled, then they all reacted, bowing to the newcomer.

“Star Lord.”

Zhang Xiaoman waved his hand.

“Don’t mind me, carry on.”

He walked to a corner of the room, observing and waiting for a while until Yang Yangyang’s examination was fully complete before addressing the main matter.

“Sweater, tell me what’s going on over there. How could a Mutant possibly injure you?”

He was quite concerned about this matter.

Before coming, Su Changqing had mentioned a bit, and when Yang Yangyang returned, it seemed like he was quite injured.

“It’s fine, thanks for the concern, Boss. But I’m really okay; it was just that I bled a little excessively at first which looked scary, but it wasn’t a serious issue…”

He spoke as he hopped off the medical bed, bouncing a few times to show he was alright.

Zhang Xiaoman was noncommittal, quietly waiting for him to continue.

He knew very well how strong Yang Yangyang was, being one of the first Awakeners to follow him.

Regarding Dark Energy, although it wasn’t over a thousand, he still reached seven or eight hundred.

To have injured him, the monster’s strength must be extraordinarily formidable.

“Ahem… it’s like this…”

Yang Yangyang began to explain.

“Today, I was going to routinely check the road leading to the Technology Center, as usual. But as I reached the edge of the overpass, through the window, I suddenly saw a giant monster roaming the city…”

“That creature was unlike any Mutant I’ve seen; it was massive, about forty to fifty meters tall, not expanding its body, but appearing as a floating being with dozens of tentacles and a huge eye.”

“A big eye…?”

On the side, Xiao Shun was intrigued.

“What you described sounds a bit like that big eye in the Alliance, doesn’t it?”

He was merely joking, but Yang Yangyang nodded, saying:

“You’re right, it does look a bit like that, but its eye was red, without any armor or anything similar, looking more like a non-sentient creature… Oh right, I created its appearance using my watch. You can take a look.”

As Yang Yangyang spoke, he opened his Star Network Terminal and projected a three-dimensional holographic image.

This image was, of course, not something he recorded.

After all, those instruments couldn’t be used on Guleng Star; it was something he later drew up using his watch.

The image looked rough, but one could still discern it was a city scene.

Tall buildings reached sky-high, and in between was a giant monster with tentacles tens of meters long.

The monster, as he described, had a big eye in the middle of its tentacles, and its overall shape resembled an octopus swimming in the water, which was quite peculiar.

“I saw it from the overpass back then, and it seemed to sense me too as its eyeball immediately came up to the window and stared at me. Honestly, it was quite scary…”

“Then what happened next? Did you fight with it? The penetrating wounds on your body, are they from it?”
