Yu Chen and Feather Song were both startled, then asked in unison, "The rear?"
"That's right, the rear..."
Motan put away the map, pacing back and forth inside the carriage with some irritation, "And it's not just those scattered Mutants discovered by the scout team. If we think back carefully, all the Mutants at the Doe Hills exhibited anomalies; I just didn't notice them immediately."
Muttering to himself, he continued to try hard to recall every detail of the battle and became increasingly convinced of his suspicion—that all Mutants had shown anomalies at the same time, and the specific moment was probably after he personally defended the temporary defensive line against the first wave of attacks.
"What anomalies?"
Feather Song nervously swallowed, her beautiful face paling somewhat: "Suddenly they grew brains? That's not right, if they really had gotten smarter, how come they were still wiped out as planned by us?"
