They say I'm a world-destroying anomaly.

Chapter 43 Using someone else's name to intimidate others, the rescuers

Cheng Xu did not choose to use his newly acquired spacetime manipulation ability.

Because he had only recently come into contact with this ability, he had not yet figured out its scope of application, intensity of effect, and other internal mechanisms, and therefore could not use it at will.

Prior to this, all his experiments had been conducted on relatively small objects. But the giant toad before him was a colossal creature measuring a full 15 meters in length.

In other words, he could not guarantee that his abilities would be 100% effective against the giant moss toad in front of him.

If he hadn't been able to stop the giant toad from thrusting its tongue at Xiyeli, the Haoli tribe man would likely have become the beast's meal in the next second.

Under these circumstances, Cheng Xu chose a method he was more familiar with and more confident in—

The standard equipment of the Anomaly Management Bureau is a single-soldier pistol with built-in DZ concussion paralysis rounds.

For Cheng Xu, who had received specialized training and assessment during his onboarding training, this thing was much easier to use.

The shockwave paralysis bullet drew a straight line in the air, accurately hitting the crimson tongue of the giant moss toad that it was aimed at Siel.

"Sizzle—"

The sound of electric current splashing sent chills down Siel and Tana's spines; the giant toad's long tongue crackled with electricity and trembled uncontrollably.

Countless electric currents spread along the long tongue toward the giant moss toad. Cheng Xu breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, until the crisis was basically over.

DZ shockwave paralysis munitions are munitions that exert a control effect on targets through high-frequency shockwaves and special bioelectric currents.

Let alone the 15-meter-long giant moss toad, even if its size doubled, it would be unable to withstand eating just one.

Of course, the effect of the shock paralysis bullet will be greatly reduced when facing silicon-based creatures like the Crystal Rock Man.

"Gurgle..."

Lightning gradually spread across the entire body of the giant moss toad, and its trembling intensified. Finally, with a weak roar, its massive body crashed to the ground, and it simply lost consciousness.

"Phew, thank goodness, I'm saved..."

Siel, who had just fallen to the ground, witnessed this scene. He supported himself with his right hands, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his left hands, and his legs were still trembling.

Behind him, Tana rushed towards her fiancé and wrapped her four strong arms tightly around his upper body.

"Waaaaah... Siel, you scared me to death... I thought..."

Tana burst into tears.

"Alright, alright, help me up," Sielli said softly, comforting his fiancée.

With Tana's help, Sielie staggered to his feet. Overwhelmed by the intense emotions of narrowly escaping death, his legs could not yet fully support his body.

He led Tana to Cheng Xu and said, "Brother Cheng Xu, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I'd probably be dead today."

Sielie bent down deeply.

"Thank you, thank you... thank you for saving Siel..." Tana also sobbed as she thanked him.

At this moment, Cheng Xu recalled everything that had happened in the blink of an eye, and he began to understand:

"You know I work for the Bureau?"

In the moment when he faced a life-threatening crisis, Sierra's instinctive reaction was to seek help from himself, decisively and swiftly.

In other words, he knew that Cheng Xu had the ability to save him. Or at least he knew that in this situation, only Cheng Xu could possibly save him from the toad's mouth.

"hey-hey……"

Upon hearing Cheng Xu's words, Xi Yeli chuckled awkwardly, his four hands unsure of what to do, haphazardly touching his nose, chin, and the back of his head.

"As I mentioned before, my uncle works at the Farlight Star branch of the Anomaly Management Bureau, so I do have some understanding of the Bureau."

Only after Xi Yeli's explanation did Cheng Xu understand.

It turns out that the Haoli man had already noticed his attire and backpack when he was taking pictures of Xiyeli and Tanali.

Because of his uncle Xi Yeli, he had a good understanding of the Bureau of Abnormal Affairs and could tell that the backpack on Cheng Xu's body was a kind of standard equipment unique to the Bureau.

Having guessed that Cheng Xu was an employee of the Bureau of Abnormal Affairs, Xi Yeli's invitation for Cheng Xu to accompany him was also driven by ulterior motives.

Before this trip with his fiancée, he had boasted to Tana Li that he could take her deep into the undeveloped areas of Fenglin Star to see the most pristine natural scenery on the planet.

However, the travel permit he obtained through his uncle's connections had certain regional restrictions.

So Siel had a sudden inspiration and decided to bring Cheng Xu, an employee of the Anomaly Management Bureau, along with him.

In this way, even if the officials of Fenglin Star find out, they won't be too harsh on him because he is their fellow traveler.

However, Siel didn't expect that his spur-of-the-moment decision would save his life at a critical moment.

"So that's how it is."

Cheng Xu was both amused and exasperated.

He had felt something was off earlier. Why was the Haoli tribe man he had just met so enthusiastic towards him? Why was the man so insistent on him traveling with the two of them?

It turns out that Siel was planning to use his position as a bureau chief to his advantage.

He didn't feel much anger, after all, the other party had indeed fulfilled their duties as a guide.

Coupled with the person's performance during the crisis, Cheng Xu's last bit of dissatisfaction vanished.

"Brother Cheng Xu, you...aren't angry?"

Siel cautiously looked up to observe Cheng Xu's expression.

"I'll let it go this time, but don't do it again next time." Cheng Xu reached out and patted his shoulder.

"Boom boom boom..."

Just as Siel was about to say something, a deep rumble came from above the three of them.

Cheng Xu looked up and saw the shadow of a small spaceship looming overhead, the strong winds blowing away the dense bushes.

The spaceship swooped down like a giant steel bird and landed on the open ground next to Cheng Xu and his two companions.

Before the spaceship had even come to a complete stop, several Luling tribesmen carrying long guns and short cannons jumped out of the hatch, their rescue team's distinctive markings hanging on their tree tunics.

The gel that makes up their bodies provides cushioning, and the rescuers pounded shallow craters into the ground, but their movements did not stop at all.

Two of them rushed towards the fallen giant moss toad, while the other three rushed to Cheng Xu and his two companions.

"Are you alright?"

The leader of the Luling tribesmen saw that the three were unharmed, and then glanced at the fallen moss giant toad beside him, and breathed a sigh of relief.

If someone with a travel permit gets into an accident on Fenglin Star, it would be a huge problem.

"It's alright, it's been resolved."

Cheng Xu put away his pistol and nodded to him.

The sound of tires rolling on the ground came from the distant jungle, mixed with the sound of sharp blades cutting through the primeval forest branches.

Rescue teams from Fenglinxing arrived from all directions and gradually reached the scene.
