Chapter 106 - Chapter 25: Three-way Standoff!

Nothing happened!

Yamamoto let out a long sigh.

Outside the cave, the expressions of the two observers relaxed.

Even Jia Yan, hanging upside down in the dark recesses of the stalactite, felt a sense of relief. Despite having touched the mechanism, the three monsters remained motionless, indicating they were unlikely to act.

"What are these things? Could they be related to the unique ecosystem of this underground world?" Jia Yan pondered. If this mechanism had no connection to the colossal creatures of the underground world, it would be impossible! A complete ecosystem wouldn't arise from simple origins.

He always believed that science should be rigorous and evidence-based. However, the existence of this world violated too many scientific principles. The inexplicable phenomena, combined with this mechanism, left no room for doubt.

The giant mechanism had numerous metallic pipes inserted into the ground.

"Yokota Kazuo! It seems like... like it's still operational!" Yamamoto exclaimed suddenly after placing his hand on the surface of the mechanism for a while.

As if he had touched something terrifying, his hand recoiled as if shocked.

"Don't worry, our sacred objects in Wa are similar," said Yokota, moving inward cautiously but deliberately avoiding the vicinity of the three monsters.

Approaching Yamamoto, he gestured for him to step aside before placing his palm on the surface of the mechanism and exploring.

From not far away, there were faint footsteps echoing in the cave.

"Lord Yokota, they're coming!" A Wa woman standing outside the cave heard the sound and quickly called out.

Inside the cave, Yokota remained composed and continued his exploration.

Tap, tap, tap!

The footsteps grew clearer, indicating that the two were followed by two heavy footsteps!

Jia Yan, hidden in the main part of the cave, even heard the distant flapping of wings at the cave entrance, indicating that a large number of giant bats were following the people entering the cave, ready to attack!

The situation was about to get lively.

Jia Yan concealed himself even deeper, unsure if the bat army could detect him. However, he was confident that he could evade the humans below.

Click!

Yokota, while exploring, finally showed a slight change in expression. He had found a button in a certain part of the giant mechanism.

The button was very concealed, and finding it without prior knowledge would be nearly impossible. Yokota's ability to locate it so easily indicated his deep understanding of such mechanisms.

After pressing the button, the mechanism emitted a faint whistling sound...

"What's going on?" Jia Yan's compound eyes showed a hint of shock as he watched the strange changes in the mechanism after Yokota pressed the button.

Click, click!

Slight noises rang out, and a disturbance appeared on the surface of the mechanism.

Crack!

A crack appeared seemingly out of nowhere on the side of the mechanism. The crack slowly widened, revealing a faint blue halo emanating from within. A light mist rose from the crack but dissipated quickly, blending into the air and disappearing.

Jia Yan's compound eyes were infiltrated by the pale blue color, emitting a faint blue glow.

The blue was so dazzling, mysterious, and intoxicatingly enticing.

"What is inside? What is this?" Jia Yan felt a strong desire, similar to what he had felt when he saw the purple-red and black liquids. However, this time, the desire was even stronger.

A complex mix of desire and fear coursed through Jia Yan's senses, making it almost impossible for him to remain hidden. He felt as if he were a hungry person faced with a feast, exuding a deep sense of longing.

"Hey, you Wa people, don't move!" Just as everyone was captivated by the palm-sized blue crystal, a loud command snapped them out of their trance.

Even Jia Yan failed to notice that two American soldiers had arrived at the entrance of the cave. With guns aimed—one at the Wa woman outside the cave and the other at Yamamoto inside—the soldiers had complete control of the situation.

Meanwhile, the super mutant James, with a grave expression, his eyes that were supposed to be blue now glowing with a golden light, held a gun he had never used before. Although the gun appeared ordinary, it was clear that it was not something ordinary people would use.

The gun was pointed at the most dangerous "monster" among the three Wa people—Yokota. Because Yokota was so formidable, James, despite his previous nonchalance, now appeared extremely serious.

He wouldn't underestimate himself. By activating his super mutant state, he was confident that he could confront the "monster"!

"I know who I am, and now it's your turn to freeze!" Yokota smiled faintly at the two Americans standing outside the cave.

Unconsciously, he ignored the black barrel pointed at him, as if it weren't aimed at him at all!

Of course, as a "bird in the shadows," he was well aware of the battles between China and the United States. While the Americans entered China arrogantly, he, a world-class "monster," chose to infiltrate China incognito. He even arranged for a decoy to hold a meeting in Wa, keeping other countries in the dark!

Moreover, they had taken further steps, such as kidnapping Ye Tongyu and bribing the man beside Dongbei Ye Hu, all to gain insider information about the factory.

However, he didn't expect that even though they were already ahead, they would still be intercepted by two American powerhouses.

"Monster, I know you speak English. Pick up that thing and slowly toss it over!" Hammond held his gun casually, but his actions showed no signs of carelessness.

The man and woman from Wa were dumbfounded. Although they were not famous powerhouses, the fact that they were here to execute a mission alongside the Wa "monster" meant they were no ordinary individuals.

So the two American powerhouses didn't underestimate them!

With a faint smile, Yokota moved forward slowly, picking up the palm-sized blue crystal and holding it in his hand.

This crystal didn't seem to cause harm to the human body, but after being held, it felt as cold as ice, as if it were evaporating in the warmth of human breath.

After Yokota grabbed the crystal, a hissing sound filled the air as if gas were being released.

It seemed that nobody was interested in the miraculous properties of the machine anymore. James, with no tremble in his voice, gave orders while pointing his gun.

Yokota remained calm, but just as his expression changed slightly, signaling his intent...

"You're the ones who shouldn't move!" Two Chinese martial arts masters suddenly emerged from behind the Americans!

The two American powerhouses had been alert to the possibility of Chinese martial artists appearing behind them. However, they didn't expect the abundance of equipment on the two men. Upon entering the cave, they tore off the outer layer of their bulletproof vests and draped them over their bodies, gradually becoming transparent!

This was a state-of-the-art invisible suit developed through the latest technology. Although its effectiveness in combat was initially poor due to the incomplete technology, it had surprisingly managed to deceive everyone in this dim cave environment.

Now, emerging from hiding, one of the Chinese martial artists carried a micro-submachine gun with remaining bullets, while the other held a new type of Chinese rifle capable of automatic fire, exerting immense pressure on the situation!

In this confined space, three countries' top combat

As for the farther distance, Jia Yan saw a mass of smoke, with the sound of the flapping wings of a large army of locusts inside, and even two of them fell directly to the ground after passing through the smoke.

That was toxic smoke!

The equipment of the two soldiers was indeed complete!

Jia Yan looked at the situation below and felt as if the air had solidified!

Despite the appearance of the soldiers controlling the situation, everyone knew that it was like a tightly wound string, ready to explode at any moment!
