The hunchback corpse had inexplicably disappeared.
Once he was done listening to Xia Guanghai, Xia Fei turned in surprise to where the corpse had been lying. What was left were some dark bloodstains, the corpse itself having vanished.
Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng was there, and he sighed as he said, "I was so focused on having everyone gather the spoils that I forgot about that hunchback corpse. When I finally remembered it, it's already gone."
Xia Fei squatted and. using a transparent bottle for storing medicine. gathered a few drops of the hunchback's blood. Once he was back in the warship, he would test it in the lab. He asked. "I also found those hunchbacks to be weird. I feel like I've seen them somewhere before. You guys fought against them; did you notice anything particular about them?"
Xia Gucheng replied, "They had an unusual aura and didn't seem like humans at all to me; in fact, they're more like exotic beasts."
