After the covering strike was completed, a large open space was directly plowed out of the birch forest, and Ye Buyuan felt that the tree man could not escape death, so he transferred a large number of patrols to start a carpet search.

It's a pity that they searched for a long time in that clearing, except for some bits and pieces, they couldn't find even half of the stump, and the corpse of the tree man seemed to have disappeared out of thin air......

It wasn't until after dawn that an investigator found a series of strange footprints on the edge of the birch grove that looked like they had been poked with a stick.

Looking at the direction in which the footprints disappeared, Ye Buyuan fell into deep thought.

Momiji proposed: "Old Yuan, even if this guy doesn't die, it is estimated that he has been scratched by the missile, we should continue to pursue it while it is injured, otherwise when it fully recovers, I am afraid that more innocent people will be victimized!" ”

"Of course, we must chase, but we must think long-term, not act blindly." Ye Buyuan sighed, "You go and summon that kid from Fang Ye, and then ask the headquarters to dispatch a batch of special ammunition, and enter the mountain at noon after getting ready, I still have to find an old friend who is good at tracking techniques to help, I hope he hasn't left Lijiang at this time." ”

"Come over at night? He may still be assisting Ning Frost in investigating the murderous mansion wine altar, wouldn't it be bad to draw people like this? Momiji said.

"Leave her alone, you just say it's my order." Ye Buyuan sighed and said, "Also, notify the headquarters to upgrade this incident to C-level, and see if the upper authorities can send some more support." ”

"Okay!"

Momiji nodded, and soon went down to make arrangements.

Fang Ye, who had just fallen asleep, asked Yang Lin to prepare a helicopter without saying a word, and then rushed to southern Xinjiang as soon as possible.

Before 12 noon, the large army of the non-mediation agency was assembled outside the birch forest, and in addition to Ye Buyuan, who had been absent for a long time, Fang Ye actually saw another acquaintance.

"Uncle Jiu, why are you here, are you also an investigator in the society?"

"It turned out to be Xiao Fang!" Long Jiu smiled heartily, "I'm not a non-mediator, I can only be regarded as a foreign aid." ”

Ye Buyuan explained: "Lao Jiu has been my friend for many years, in addition to being the most famous hunter in Southern Xinjiang, he is also an excellent tracking master, so he is indispensable for this operation. ”

Fang Ye nodded: "I see, then who are the targets we want to track this time?" ”

"Let's go first, Momiji will tell you in detail along the way." Ye Buyuan didn't want to waste time, so he urged the team to go on the road.

In addition to Uncle Jiu, there was also his apprentice Lu Qiang, who was the bald hunter he had seen before, and Fang Ye secretly called him Bald Qiang in order to make his mouth easier......

In addition to Momiji and Fang Ye, there are two men and one woman in the team.

One of the men is called Ma Junsong, he was born tall and tiger-backed, I don't know if it was to be handsome, he actually tied a red rope to his head, and smeared some colorful camouflage on his face, and after wearing a pair of sunglasses, he made himself look like Arnold and Rambo.

The other man, Gao Feng, was much shorter, with a rather striking mushroom head, a white shirt with cropped pants and beanie shoes underneath, and a smile on his face, giving the impression of a very cheerful social person.

The last woman is called Liu Mei'er, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, her figure in a black bodysuit is bumpy and almost perfect, and the whole person exudes a special femininity, like a fully ripe peach.

The road into the mountain is not easy to walk, so the soldiers are not expensive, Ye Buyuan is naturally a strong general, Ma Junsong is good at cold weapons, Gao Feng is a firepower, and Liu Meier is a medical background, with superb medical skills and a fighting master, which can be regarded as a nurse in the team.

The danger of this operation is not trivial, so Ye Buyuan is quite generous, in addition to equipping the team members with slashing and demon breaking crossbows, he also issued automatic rifles and pistols, five conventional magazines, and only one special magazine, which suddenly made Fang Ye so beautiful.

Uncle Nine quickly confirmed the target's escape route, and led the way in front with the bald head Qiang, Ye Buyuan followed behind the two, Gao Feng and Liu Meier, who were carrying heavy machine guns, were in the middle of the team, and then the tall Ma Junsong, and Hongye and Fang Ye were in charge of the palace, and the two were chatting non-stop all the way.

Fang Ye said with a suspicious expression: "Lord Leader, you shouldn't be joking, according to what I said just now, the object we want to track now is actually a tree?" ”

"Not a tree, but a monster that looks very much like a tree." Momiji explained, "It's actually the same shape as a tree, except that it can run and jump, and it's more than a dozen stories tall!" ”

She took out her tablet as she spoke, and then clicked on the footage of the battle in the birch forest this morning for Fang Ye to see.

"I'll go, this ...... Is this really a tree?! After seeing this unbelievable video, Fang Ye believed that the other party had not fooled him.

"Look at the waist and hands and feet of this tree monster are as thin as a flagpole, I can't imagine that the power is so great, even an off-road vehicle can kick it away, does it belong to a plant or an animal?" He couldn't help but be amazed.

Momiji said lightly: "Strictly speaking, it no longer belongs to the category of normal creatures, and I don't know if the genus belongs to evil things for the time being." ”

"And how did you find it in the first place?" Fang Ye was a little curious, if this thing had been staying in the deep mountains and old forests, then who could tell that it was a monster?

"Because this guy likes to kidnap people at night." Momiji explained, "More than a week ago, there were frequent cases of missing residents in the high-end community we set up, and the time of the crime was at night, and the victims all disappeared silently, but no traces of struggle were found indoors, and the door was also locked well. ”

"After they reported the incident to the agency, the investigators of the Lijiang subgroup quickly launched an operation, because they seriously underestimated the strength of the target, and suffered heavy losses in the operation that night, not only the residents were still taken away, but the Lijiang subgroup also lost six investigators and more than ten auxiliary personnel, so the headquarters directly upgraded it to a D-class incident the next day."

Fang Ye was terrified when he heard this: "This monster kidnaps the living, won't it be to make nourishment for himself?" ”

"The reason is unknown, because we don't know about it at all, as we have just said, and we haven't even been able to distinguish whether it is a plant or an animal or an evil thing." Momiji said, "But when we were cleaning the battlefield today, we found the broken tissue that was stripped from it, and it has been sent to the provincial base for study, and I believe there will be results soon." ”
