CHAPTER 658: CHAPTER 269: THE MISSING BONE SPEAR GIANT SPIDER_3

The Great Black Gold Giant Ape impatiently picked it up and placed it on its shoulder.

Xiaohai immediately grinned, running to Liang Yuan’s side.

Now, standing over two meters tall, it was considerably taller than Liang Yuan.

However, when it got to him, it would obediently squat down, then hug Liang Yuan’s leg, rubbing its head against his waist and abdomen in a very affectionate manner.

Liang Yuan smiled and patted its head, taking out a bunch of bananas from the inventory to give it.

No matter how it mutated, apes and monkeys still retained their habit of liking bananas.

Xiaohai received the bananas and immediately cackled, peeling one in a couple of moves and eating it.

Then it peeled another one. But instead of eating it itself, it handed it to Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan smiled and took the banana.

Only then did Xiaohai peel another, just about to stuff it into its mouth.

However, the Black Gold Giant Ape turned its head to look this way, its large eyes watching Xiaohai.

Xiaohai immediately protected the banana, cackling and baring its teeth.

The Black Gold Giant Ape snorted out hot air, a gust of hot wind blowing which made Xiaohai unsteady on its feet.

Its expression showed fear as it reluctantly handed over a banana.

The Black Gold Giant Ape opened its mouth and stuffed it in, but this little banana was nothing more than a sesame seed to it.

Yet it still enjoyed chewing it.

Liang Yuan’s gaze swept around. This time he came out, besides the daily training of the Black Gold Giant Ape, the more important task was to find that Bone Spear Giant Spider.

"This Bone Spear Giant Spider is the only creature in Yangshan that poses a threat to the shelter."

"If we eliminate this Bone Spear Giant Spider, Yangshan Shelter will be at the top of the food chain in the entire Yangshan."

"Only then can I leave Yangshan in the care of Zhao Kai and the others with peace of mind."

"But strangely, since the last tide, this Bone Spear Giant Spider seems to have disappeared. It’s really bizarre."

Liang Yuan’s face showed confusion. He knew that the patrol team searched the mountain every day under his order, focusing on finding any trace of the Bone Spear Giant Spider.

These days, they’ve scoured nearly the entirety of Yangshan, but still found no trace of it.

This was a bit puzzling to him. The Bone Spear Giant Spider wasn’t a small mutant beast; its massive size was comparable to a two-story building. How could there be no trace of it?

But the truth was just that strange. He had been searching the mountain for three or four days, walking around with the Black Gold Giant Ape but found nothing.

"Rustle, rustle!"

A sudden rush of footsteps came from the woods, crashing through the bushes.

The next moment, Monsoon’s figure appeared.

He stopped tens of meters away from the Black Gold Giant Ape, swallowing hardly as he looked at its massive figure, then called out, "Mr. Liang, team four has found the Bone Spear Giant Spider’s trail."

Liang Yuan patted the Black Gold Giant Ape, signaling it to stop.

The Black Gold Giant Ape, well-trained to be obedient, immediately stood still.

Liang Yuan asked, "Where is it?"

"Gouwu Pavilion," Monsoon called out.

Liang Yuan was surprised. The Gouwu Pavilion, located at the mountain top, was barren and had no prey. The Bone Spear Giant Spider showed up there?

He immediately said, "Lead the way."

"Yes!"

Monsoon turned around hastily, his speed superpower making him run like the wind.

Liang Yuan patted the Black Gold Giant Ape.

The Black Gold Giant Ape immediately started running.

Although it wasn’t speed-specialized, it was still quite agile, and keeping pace with Monsoon was no problem.

In no time, they climbed the high slope and reached the collapsed Gouwu Pavilion.

The fourth patrol team was already stationed there. Seeing the Black Gold Giant Ape, they all showed expressions of fear.

However, upon seeing Liang Yuan on its shoulder, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"I heard that Mr. Liang tamed the Black Gold Giant Ape. I didn’t believe it before, but it’s true."

"My God, being able to tame the Black Gold Giant Ape, how powerful is Mr. Liang?"

"Stop guessing, we can never fathom Mr. Liang’s level."

Amid their discussion, Monsoon arrived.

Liang Yuan patted the Black Gold Giant Ape’s head, signaling it to stop.

The Black Gold Giant Ape quickly stopped and sat on the mountain path.

Liang Yuan dismounted, with Xiaohai closely following.

Monsoon quickly said, "Mr. Liang, this way."

Liang Yuan followed him to a nearby pavilion.

This pavilion was where Tu Long and his allies conspired against him last time.

But now, this pavilion was half-destroyed, the bricks and tiles scattered and shattered on the ground.

Liang Yuan noticed several fist-sized holes on the nearby bluestone floor.

The holes were dense, as if countless awls had pierced them.

Liang Yuan immediately associated them with the Bone Spear Giant Spider’s huge bone spear limbs.

"Mr. Liang, look over there."

Monsoon pointed to the rubble and gestured for Liang Yuan to look.

Liang Yuan glanced over and spotted a large amount of white webbing, akin to steel cables, covering the rubble.

He recognized this immediately as the web shot by the Bone Spear Giant Spider.

Liang Yuan walked over and grabbed the web.

The web had lost its stickiness and seemed to have been there a long time.

Though no longer sticky, it was still extremely tough, as solid as steel.

Standing on high ground, Liang Yuan surveyed the area. The web was shattered, covering a sizeable area over the rubble.

Liang Yuan noticed clear signs of battle around the ruins.

It seemed an intense fight had taken place here.

"What mutant creature could withstand the Bone Spear Giant Spider?"

"And apparently, it looks like the Bone Spear Giant Spider lost?"

Liang Yuan found it hard to believe. He had seen the Bone Spear Giant Spider’s strength firsthand.

His spiritual power above 30 had only given him enough to escape from the Bone Spear Giant Spider. What other creature in Yangshan could match it?

And yet, despite searching for days, he found no trace of the Bone Spear Giant Spider. This suggested that the Bone Spear Giant Spider was no longer in Yangshan!

Liang Yuan frowned, "Even if it died, it should have left a body, right?"

"And any mutant creature strong enough to kill the Bone Spear Giant Spider couldn’t possibly leave no trace in Yangshan."

"Unless this mutant creature..."

"Isn’t native to Yangshan!"

Liang Yuan’s expression changed slightly as he realized this possibility.

Not native to Yangshan, yet it managed to reach Yangshan, kill the Bone Spear Giant Spider, and carry away its body.

Where could this mutant creature have come from?

Liang Yuan’s first thought was the massive mutants in the water.

However, he quickly shook his head, dismissing this idea immediately.

If it were an underwater mutant, there would be no reason for it to be at the mountain-top Gouwu Pavilion.

In the next moment, something suddenly occurred to Liang Yuan, compelling him to look up at the sky.
