When Li Fan and others returned to Longkou Town downstream of Qianlongyuan and saw the chief officer of the Hundred Household Station stationed there and his subordinates, it was already noon the next day.
These people also find it incredible that the Gu Mind Demon Sect has done so many things under their noses.
However, the witnesses and material evidence brought by Li Chuan and others were complete. These demon-suppressing people stationed in the local area had to reorganize their team and gather the only eight strangers under their command to go out together, preparing to follow Li Chuan and others to clear Qian Longyuan. Destroy the giant crocodile of false gods kept there by the Demon Cult.
This was originally their duty. If left unchecked, the giant crocodile would evolve into a ferocious monster, and even the horrific rainstorms and floods of decades ago would reappear.
At this moment, at the old site of the demon sect's stronghold, the remaining remnants have long since disappeared.
After Mo Tanzhu died, they scattered and disappeared without a trace.
Li Ao couldn't care less about chasing them for the time being and completely let it go.
However, for the sake of caution, we still informed the department in advance and made it clear what was going on here.
The biggest concern in this place is the horrific rainstorm that hit most of the country decades ago. If the Demon Sect is allowed to repeat the disaster here, no one can bear such responsibility.
This was actually the reason why Li Fan and others had to gather people back as soon as possible to exterminate the evil spirits after they left, not just to recapture the Yangmu statue.
"To deal with such a monster, you can only outsmart it, not defeat it..."
"There is no need for us to confront it head-on. We can find a way to fish it ashore, then block the way back and destroy it!"
"Next, I will arrange everyone's tasks accordingly and perform their duties as much as possible..."
Returning to the huge underground space, Li Fan and his team prepared huge chains and winches, and used the prepared flesh and blood stained with strange power as bait, just like fishing, they caught the huge crocodile.
This is a method thought up based on the characteristics of the giant crocodile and the power at hand. It is also the most labor-saving method they can currently adopt.
Li Fan didn't think that he and the group of strangers around him could go into the sea to capture the dragon, and deal with such aquatic monsters in the huge pool of hundreds of feet deep and the intricate underground rivers.
It would be better to find a way to get it ashore and conduct a siege.
When everything was ready, everyone watched as the huge iron hook connected to the heavy chain sank into the water.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Feng, who was tightly tied up, was escorted up.
"It's your turn. How did you summon it in the first place? Try again."
Wu Feng had no choice but to blow the bone whistle again.
If he dares to disobey, he may be used as bait and tied to an iron hook.
As a sharp whistle sounded, water bubbles seemed to rise in the pool below, followed closely by a giant crocodile.
Looking at the huge body like a giant shark in the sea from a distance, everyone suddenly felt the fierce aura of a peerless beast coming towards their faces. They couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring and subconsciously tightened their breathing.
But Li Fan and Xue An were fearless. Instead, they shook the bait pulled by the huge winch and disguised it as a living creature, attracting the giant crocodile to climb up.
The intelligence of animals is originally not as good as that of humans. After being transformed into demons, they become like walking zombies, with only some basic biological instincts left.
At this moment, the giant crocodile could not sense anything wrong with the surrounding environment at all, and was completely attracted by the bait on the shaking iron hook.
When he walked up the slide on the west side of the altar step by step and completely left the water, the local stranger who was recruited took action.
One of them controlled a strange treasure that could freeze the water surface, and he immediately used his magic to move towards the giant crocodile's retreat.
There was a crackling sound, like a glacier, a large number of ice crystals condensed, and the place where the pool connected to the river beach was sealed.
Immediately after, a series of crossbow arrows were shot towards him like raindrops.
The giant crocodile was startled and subconsciously dropped the food in his mouth, wanting to go back.
But the huge iron hook had hooked its mouth, and it couldn't break free in a short time. It was actually passed through, led to the winch, and hung up.
Even a huge machine could not lift its entire body in a short period of time. However, with a numbing sound of tension, the giant crocodile's mouth was suspended in the air, still several feet above the ground. Was pulled up.
All of a sudden, several wind blades, thunder lights, and sword blades fell together.
It was a joint attack launched by Li Chuan and others. Each used their own means to suppress the situation, just to weaken its strength as much as possible to facilitate further encirclement and suppression.
As expected, this series of attacks directly blinded the giant crocodile.
It was caught off guard and was attacked by several alien masters. It was covered in blood and bruises all at once.
The mouth was pulled by the iron hook, causing it to hang in the air. The upper body was completely off the ground, and there was no way to focus on it.
But just when everyone thought that this beast was completely finished, a yellow-green light enveloped the whole body, and all the injured areas were quickly restored as if going back in time.
In the blink of an eye, the giant crocodile's body returned to its original shape, with no sign of having been attacked.
Not only that, there were also several crocodile clones that were slightly smaller in stature but looked almost the same as itself.
They were not pulled by the iron hooks and winches, and perfectly maintained their freedom of movement, running quickly towards the people below.
"Come up quickly!"
Nie Baihu shouted hurriedly.
Everyone hurriedly ran for their lives, but the slide on the west side was a long landslide and there was no danger to defend it.
They can come up from it, and so can the giant crocodile.
At the critical moment, Li Fan took action.
He stopped behind the fleeing people. Xiao Qingyi held a knife in the air with her right arm. Suddenly, her whole body jumped high, and with the help of a condescending jump slash, she came down.
There was a sound like tearing cloth, and a crocodile that was catching up was cut into two halves.
The other crocodiles turned around and were about to surround them, but they saw Li Kuan leaping high, floating in the air, stepping on the air and running for a few steps, and immediately rushed to the platform on the other side.
His body stood at an angle, as steep as an upside-down golden hook, and his whole body was hung on the tower above. A moment later, he fell like a cannonball, and with another knife, he split the crocodile below in half.
There was a stupefying movement of rabbits and falcons, and more crocodiles that came up were beheaded.
Everyone's morale was greatly boosted, and they quickly attacked and wiped out the remaining crocodile clones.
But at this moment, the exclamation of the person controlling the winch came over.
But the giant crocodile took this opportunity to break free from the iron hook, forcibly tore his mouth open, and regained his freedom.
