The Tokusatsu Era: Starting with Orphnoch

Chapter 66 Cricket Native (Protozoa)

Left with no other choice, he nodded and turned to give instructions to the other team members: "Attention everyone, two people stay outside the armored vehicle to keep watch, the rest of you get out of the vehicle and follow me! Be quick!"

As the armored vehicle doors slowly closed with a dull thud, the armored soldiers rushed towards the accident site.

Meanwhile, Wudao sat in a comfortable chair, picked up the book next to him again, and quietly began to read.

Li, in the driver's seat, nervously watched the commotion outside the car window.

Time passed like sand through the air. In the midst of the silence, a voice as calm as still water suddenly came from inside the armored vehicle: "How elegant! Special envoy Wudao from the Special Operations Bureau of the Ming Dynasty Capital!"

Wu Dao was completely absorbed in the world described in the book he was holding when the sudden sound was like a thunderclap in his ears, startling him so much that he immediately closed the book.

His gaze quickly rose and fell towards the driver's seat.

The driver, Xiao Li, had slumped limply in his seat, his fate unknown.

What's even more chilling is that sitting next to Xiao Li is a native (protozoan) that is entirely green and exudes an eerie aura.

Wu Dao was startled and instinctively tried to get up to shout a warning, but just as he made a move, a chill came from behind him.

A sharp, hooked claw shot out like a ghost and firmly gripped his neck.

"Shh! If the special envoy from Wudao Island insists on shouting, then don't blame me for slitting your precious throat!" A sinister voice rang in his ear.

Upon hearing this, Wudao felt his Adam's apple bob uncontrollably, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He then slowly sat back down, staring intently at the Native in front of him for a moment, his mind suddenly recalling the relevant information he had seen at the Special Operations Bureau in the capital before setting off.

Wudao then took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and said, "You are the Worms? Kidnapping a small envoy like me probably won't get you what you want."

"Hmph, we're not like those mindless, stupid insects who only know how to fight and kill!"

“As for what we really want, Special Envoy of Wudao Island, I believe that with your status, you are fully capable of meeting our needs!” Cricket Native, sitting behind him, replied coldly.

Before the words were even finished, giving Wudao no time to react, it swiftly retracted its incredibly sharp claws.

With a chilling "thud," the retracted grappling hook pierced straight into Wudao's chest.

As the cricket Native withdrew its claws, which were deeply embedded in Udo's chest, the expected scene of blood spurting out did not occur.

Then, it nodded slightly to the other Native in the seat in front of it.

Immediately afterwards, the two Natives released energy vortexes, instantly sucking the driver, Xiao Li, and Wu Dao's corpse into their bellies.

Their abdomens twitched, and they quickly digested the two corpses, converting them into valuable energy.

After doing all this, they carefully checked the car again to see if there were any other clues left behind.

After confirming that everything was correct, the cricket native and another native used their mimicry ability to instantly transform into Wudao and driver Xiao Li, calmly returning to their original seats as if nothing had happened.

About half an hour later, the armored soldiers who went to rescue the truck driver finally returned.

The armored soldier captain quickly arrived at the vehicle on Wudao Island and said, "Reporting to the special envoy, the truck driver has been taken away by the local highway patrol for treatment."

Furthermore, all road obstructions have been cleared, and we are ready to depart at any time!

Upon hearing this, Wu Dao smiled with satisfaction and nodded in response, "Very good, you've all worked hard! Once we arrive at the Harbin Special Investigation Bureau, I will definitely report the truth to my superiors and request commendations for you!"

Then, Wudao continued, "Now that the roads are clear, let's not delay any longer and set off quickly. We can't keep Director Zhong of the Harbin Special Operations Bureau waiting!"

A moment later, the three Special Operations Bureau armored vehicles restarted their engines, lined up in formation, and sped off towards Harbin along the wide highway.

……

Meanwhile, in the editing space.

Zhao Hong withdrew his gaze and gently tapped the table. It seemed that the position of the cricket native had been arranged, and the layout could proceed to the next stage.

The information panel was then brought up from the pupils and viewed as follows:

Editor (deified): Zhao Hong

Editing Level: Max

Editable quantity: Max

Remaining energy points:

Looking at the vast amount of energy generated from the numerous operations, Zhao Hong couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion: "Indeed, only large-scale operations can yield such rich rewards!"

Just as Zhao Hong was deeply immersed in thinking about the next action plan and determining where in the Ming Kingdom to start the new round of actions,

Suddenly, a deafening series of loud, clanging sounds came from above.

Zhao Hong was slightly taken aback, then a helpless expression appeared on his face as he slowly raised his head and looked toward the source of the sound.

What came into view was two technologically advanced mechanical insects violently colliding with each other in mid-air.

Upon closer inspection, the obvious differences between them can be clearly discerned.

One of them was a bright yellow, and its shape resembled a wasp, with its wings beating rapidly.

The other one is entirely blue, as light and agile as a dragonfly.

"Hey! You two naughty little devils, all you do is make a ruckus all day long. Can't you just be quiet for a little while?" Zhao Hong said, rubbing his forehead with his hand, looking a bit annoyed.

Upon hearing Zhao Hong's words, the two mechanical insects seemed to understand and quickly flew to Zhao Hong's left and right sides respectively, hovering in the air.

Immediately afterwards, they began to emit rapid and sharp chirping sounds, as if they were all eagerly complaining to Zhao Hong and accusing him of his faults.

For a moment, Zhao Hong was surrounded by this noisy sound.

"Alright!" Zhao Hong shouted, and then without hesitation, he stretched out his hands and waved them open, instantly creating two teleportation portals.

Immediately, Zhao Hong moved with lightning speed, accurately catching two rapidly flying mechanical insects.

Then, with lightning speed, he flung the two mechanical insects in his hand into the two teleportation portals.

Two soft, muffled thuds were heard, and the two mechanical insects disappeared into the portal.

At this moment, Zhao Hongcai slowly lowered his arm and exhaled a long breath.

His tense face finally relaxed.

"Finally, I'm free..." Zhao Hong murmured to himself, a hint of blessing in his eyes: "I hope the two little ones' journey goes smoothly!"
