"Zzzzzz—"

With a sudden screech of brakes, the windshield of the tractor-trailer shattered spectacularly. The young man with sunglasses, lacking a seat belt, chose to steady the steering wheel amid the vehicle's loss of control and abrupt braking.

But during the high-speed chase, both vehicles had already exceeded speeds of over a hundred kilometers per hour on the highway.

With a heavy brake stomp, and propelled by immense inertia, the young man with sunglasses was flung uncontrollably, crashing through the windshield and rolling over a dozen meters, eventually landing in a slightly disheveled state, slowly lifting his head from the ground.

The young man's face contorted with menace, his skin pale, and his eyes, with their randomly dilating colorful pupils, gave off a terrifying chill, like a faux-human.

"Master Fox!"

"Whoosh—"

Before the parasitic creature could rise, a drone operated by Su Qiyuan flipped over, drawing a large arc along the road at a speed exceeding two hundred, skillfully dodging obstacles, and crashing straight into his face.

"Boom—"

The drone smashed into the parasitic creature's head, causing his face to caved in. The palm-sized drone instantly disassembled into a storm of flying fragments, as a chemical adhesive bomb hidden within its body suddenly burst open.

"Ahhh—"

With his entire face wrapped in chemical adhesive, unable to breathe and blinded, the parasitic creature let out a furious roar, ripping away his own facial skin in a rage, glaring at his surroundings while gasping for breath.

But the only scene within his sight was a sedan with Xia Dong's local license plate, swiftly driving away from the right lane, completely ignoring him.

"Master Fox! My Master Fox!"

The parasitic creature, having torn off his own facial skin, watched the departing sedan, releasing an inhuman howl of fury.

However, his roar lasted only a moment, discharging his frustration over the setback.

The parasitic creature raised his left hand, inserted it into his hair, using the residual chemical adhesive on his head as a sort of pomade, styling it into a slicked-back look, and flung away the remnants.

Walking to the nearby field, the parasitic creature grabbed a handful of sand, rubbing it in his hands, blending the sand with the glue to reduce its stickiness.

During his glue-removal process, some white mycelium wriggled on his previously skull-revealing face, intertwining within the flesh, quickly reconstructing the torn-off skin in no time.

With a cold and unshaken expression restored, the parasitic creature again grabbed a handful of sand, silently heading back to the malfunctioning tractor-trailer, retrieving a bulletproof vest, submachine gun, and grenades from the external toolbox.

"Click—"

With the submachine gun slung over his shoulder, the magazine inserted, a shotgun placed on his back, the parasitic creature, expressionless, checked the sniper rifle in his hand before chambering a round. He then darted into the fields, almost flying close to the ground, swiftly chasing the departing sedan.

......

Inside the departing old Honda sedan.

Ansheng's mouth twitched slightly as he looked at Su Qiyuan in the back seat, wearing holographic glasses, legs spread, with a black metal box on them.

Inside the black metal box were two layers; the first layer housed the holographic glasses and the main controller for all the drones, while the other compartment held four palm-sized drones.

During the recent chase with the parasitic creature, Su Qiyuan had already used up three drones.....

No, the drones used by Su Qiyuan should more accurately be called 'Time Travel Machines.'

These are small drones capable of high speed and agility, able to navigate through various obstacles in a short time.

And to be classified as a Time Travel Machine, a drone must not only have agility but also a traversal speed of over 160 kilometers per hour.

"A box full of chemical adhesive bombs, seriously, who are you guys preparing against?"

"Even someone as adorable as An is guarded against, do you guys even have humanity?"

Master Fox's quip came out as a soft sigh, utterly incomprehensible to the two in the car.

"Xiaotao...."

Su Qiyuan, wearing the holographic glasses, maneuvered the Time Travel Machine into the sky, surveying the surrounding environment, cautious of another attack from the parasitic creature.

Capturing the parasitic creature was not their mission, nor could they possibly achieve it with their gear. The parasitic creature's terrifying combat prowess was well-documented.

"Hmm? Did the senior spot anything?" Bai Tao, diligently driving toward the ambush point, felt his heart constrict upon hearing the senior's restrained voice, asking with grave concern.

"It's currently safe; I've already informed the Woodcutter who's conducting the ambush. We should reach the designated spot in about three minutes. It's just that..." Su Qiyuan's expression turned melancholic as he said, "Do we have any sanitary pads in the car?"

"After all that bumping around, I feel like I'm experiencing some rectal radiations..."

Hearing this, Bai Tao's face froze, mouth slightly agape, already forming the word 'you', undoubtedly preparing to send regards to his mother.

However, Bai Tao swallowed his curse, sternly saying:

"Senior! Is your hemorrhoid some sort of lifesaver for you? Can't you get it removed?"

"Modern medicine is very advanced; they won't mistake your basket for hemorrhoids and cut both off!"

As Bai Tao shouted, Ansheng's wish list flickered slightly in his mind.

"No, thanks! Not interested!"

Seeing a wish related to Bai Tao updating in the wish list, Ansheng tried hard to put on a polite refusal to read Bai Tao's wish notification.

As curses about hemorrhoids spilled out, a wish popped up on the wish list.

With a rear-end intuition, Ansheng could guess Bai Tao's wish must relate to Su Qiyuan's behind.

Master Fox expressed no desire to look; it was also afraid of witnessing a butt fountain scenario.

"If there's none, there's none! No need to be so fierce...." Su Qiyuan muttered softly, then straightened up, actively ignoring the bleeding from his rear, instructing, "Turn left; there's a newly built unopened road there. The Woodcutter has already situated himself for clearing maladies."

Hearing this, Bai Tao refrained from speaking further, turning left according to Su Qiyuan's direction, crashing through plastic road barriers into the new road.

The road, which should have been unlit, instead had lights flicker on intermittently at 7:30 PM.

The lights stretched forward, reaching the end of the road, leading to a construction site filled with idle machinery.

As the car drove in, some people who were clearly not part of the construction crew looked towards the approaching sedan.

"Fu."

Bai Tao poked his head out of the car window, shouting towards the wide-open construction site.

From the opposite side, a young man standing on an excavator's hood looked towards the car and answered with the code word, "Li."

"You guys head over to the prefab house for cover; it's been reinforced with steel plates. Everyone else, too, don't meddle in other matters, focus on hiding."

The young man ordered as he leaped off the hood, crouching beneath the excavator's chassis.

With Master Fox and his crew nearing, the parasitic creature would likely follow suit.

Before actually capturing it....

There's one more step.

They need to expend the parasitic creature's bullets. The former host was a military-loving mixed martial artist who spent seventy to eighty thousand at shooting ranges each year.....The creature even hijacked an armor truck.

If they don't drain some ammo first, it would be hard to capture.

"Hey! Little buddy, come let Uncle Jinlong have a look at your face, how come you're so prone to attracting bugs?"
