Chapter 12: The Monster in the Lake

What he encountered on the road were just some episodes. With Lu En's current strength, let alone three or five people, even ten people might not be able to do anything to him. Of course, those with weapons are another matter. For example, the gunmen under Brad's command can deal with him with just a few people.

There is no way. Although his attributes have increased significantly, Lu En's fighting experience from the previous life to this life is almost zero.

It was close to midnight, and there were few pedestrians on the street. Lucas was not a big city that was known as a city that never sleeps, and the residents did not have the habit of going out at night. Lu En covered his mask with the hood on his coat and walked towards the school, but saw a row of parked police cars at the school gate.

Policemen were patrolling at the gate.

He passed by the gate calmly, went around to the back door, looked around to see that there was no one, and suddenly jumped forward. His whole body jumped up along the three or four meter high wall like parkour, and fell into the school, his feet stepped on the soft grass silently.

This is the place Lu En specially chose, a small forest not too far from the artificial lake, and it is easy to hide.

The school only installed street lights on the roadside, and these corners were still shrouded in darkness. Lu En walked forward for a distance, and the artificial lake was already in sight, but his brows were tightly furrowed.

The three people he saw on the lakeside during the day were busy with something, but what made Lu En even more difficult was that there were more than ten fully armed policemen scattered around, all of whom looked nervous as if they were facing a great enemy, and their attention was all focused on the lake, as if some prehistoric monster would jump out of it in the next moment.

Fortunately, Lu En quietly touched the lakeside a hundred meters away and crouched to observe.

He already regretted coming out at night. From the current situation, the other party was well prepared, and there was no room for him to take advantage. The reason why he didn't leave was because of a curious thought in his heart.

Gulp.

At this moment, three people by the lake suddenly threw an unknown object into the lake, and then immediately dispersed. Lu En heard the policeman's breathing suddenly became rapid, and knew that the real show should be coming.

Sure enough, the next second the whole artificial lake seemed to be boiling, and a series of bubbles came out. Some green gas came out from the bubbles, and a thin layer of mist covered the lake surface. Lu En smelled a foul rotten smell, like a piece of rotten meat that had been left for a long time and was suddenly roasted on the fire.

"Ugh!"

A policeman who was close to Lu En actually vomited, and another sour smell rushed into his nose, making him grin.

However, after a few minutes, nothing unusual happened except that the green fog on the lake became thicker and thicker. The woman standing by the lake turned her eyes to the man in the windbreaker: "Captain, there must be too many people around. The evil spirit must have noticed something unusual and should have let these guys wait outside."

"Not only is it useless, but it also wastes our time!"

The woman looked very unhappy, looking at the police around with contempt in her eyes, while the man called the captain did not change his expression, as if he did not hear any complaints: "The mayor also has good intentions, Shaka, throw another one!"

"Okay!"

The boy, who was about the same age as Lu En and looked only about 17 or 18 years old, had a maturity that did not match his age on his face. He nodded when he heard the words, took out another blood-red ball from his waist, and threw it into the lake.

"The matter that could have been solved with a blood essence had to be messed up by these bureaucrats!" The woman snorted, shook her hair, and slowly pulled out a short knife from her waist, "Little brother, stand at the back, and leave the rest to me!"

The young Shaka was stunned, and before he understood what he meant, there was a huge sound of water in the lake, and the green mist above was suddenly dispersed, and a large group of hair-like things rushed out of the lake, divided into three strands and wrapped around the three people by the lake.

"You have a big appetite!"

The sudden change seemed to have been expected by the woman. She stepped hard on her feet, and her agile figure rushed out like a sharp arrow. She swung the short knife in her hand and cut off the hair that was wrapped around her. Then she turned her hand and blocked the attack on Shaka. The man who was called the captain did not move, and the hair that was wrapped around him suddenly caught fire and turned into a ball of black ash and sprinkled in the water.

"Ah——!"

A scream that pierced the eardrums came out, and a figure emerged from the water, staring at the few people with a resentful look.

"Gods be upon you!"

"What, what is this?"

The policemen who were already stunned were even more stunned, feeling that their worldviews had been severely impacted. They saw that the figure emerging from the water still had a human shape, but the half-rotten body was still dripping with green water, and the other half was covered with dense black hair, which was like tentacles.

The face was swollen and twisted by the blisters, and it was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman. Only a pair of green eyes made people feel cold. At this time, he was staring at the woman with the short knife fiercely, and seemed to be a little afraid, so he didn't attack again.

"This evil spirit seems a little weak?" The woman exclaimed in surprise, and looked at the captain. She found that her captain also frowned, and the monster who had been staring at her also found that she was distracted. Suddenly, with a roar, countless black hairs attacked her from the sky and the bottom of the water.

Boom!

However, before these black hairs touched the woman, the captain waved his hand forward, and a large piece of flame emerged from the air, reflecting the surroundings red. These black hairs were ignited one after another, and some flames even spread under the water and attacked the monster.

"Roar!"

The monster screamed, and the flames spread from the hair to the whole body. It was immediately like being poured with gasoline, burning fiercely, turning into a human-shaped torch twisting wildly in the water. Unfortunately, the law that water can extinguish fire seemed to have lost its effect at this time. In less than a minute, it was burned into a charred ball and completely merged into the water.

"Captain?" The woman shouted in surprise. She was the main attacker of the team, and this was just the beginning.

"I'm afraid things are going to be troublesome." Even though the monsters were easily destroyed, the captain's face still did not improve, but became even uglier: "These are not evil spirits summoned or descended from the nightmare world, but artificially created monsters. Only the evil magicians and fanatics of those sects have this ability, and these people are either monsters or lunatics!"

"This is not a simple evil spirit sacrifice incident. I wonder who is there?!"

Halfway through, his face suddenly changed, and he threw a ball of fire in the direction of Lu En!

Bang!

Seeing the scorching heat on his face, Lu En dared not stay any longer. He jumped up from the ground, regardless of the shock and astonishment of the police around him, and turned around and ran without saying a word, leaving footprints on the grass with his powerful steps!

"Catch him!"

The roar came from behind, but the fastest one was the short knife woman, with a cold face, chasing Lu En, and her speed was much faster than Lu En!
