The two exchanged glances, both spotting the shock in each other's eyes: that sound was indeed coming from underground!
"Could it be that something has mutated again!"
The pair quickly took to the air, the increasingly closer sounds causing their hairs to stand on end, but just when they felt that the thing underground was about to break through the surface, the noise suddenly stopped.
A lengthy silence filled the jungle.
Pu Gaoshan signaled to Wang Mo, and the two turned and left, not even bothering to retrieve the equipment they had deployed.
Not far away, Xu Huo and Zhou Yuanzhu also heard the noise, unclear about what it was, and like Pu and Wang, they silently left the scene.
It was indeed a bit troublesome to evade Wang Mo's micro-surveillance devices without alerting him, so Xu Huo decided to change direction and head towards Zhao Xiaofang and Cao Zheng instead.
