Everything occurred in a flash, from the appearance of the mutant piranha to the swallowing of a Black

Scorpion Squad member, and then the disappearance of the mutant piranha.

It was so fast that no one could wrap their head around the incident.

The Black Scorpion Squad member that was swallowed disappeared before he could shout for help. All

that was left were splashes on the lake's surface as blood gurgled up rapidly from below.

"W-What?" Dozer and the other member were shocked beyond words. Both of them widened their

eyes in terror and looked around with a frightened expression.

What just happened? Where did their team member go? Why was there blood gurgling up from below?

"Why are you two still there? Swim for your life!" Recovering from his shock, Garrett yelled loudly.

"Yes... save ourselves!" Dozer and the other team member suddenly came to their senses.

They started flailing their arms and legs around as they swam toward the shore as fast as they could

without a second thought.

At this time, everyone who was getting ready to jump into the lake was so stunned that they remained

rooted to the ground.

Even though they didn't see what happened clearly, one thing was for sure. There was danger lurking

in the lake.

The black and huge shadow that flashed through earlier, the Black Scorpion Squad member that

disappeared, and the gurgling blood were enough to prove that there was a man-eating monster in the

lake!

The mutant piranha leaped out again from the lake causing waves as Dozer and the other team

member were trying their best to swim to safety.

This time, the mutant piranha was faster as it attacked from behind and it chomped on the head of the

remaining Black Scorpion Squad member.

"Ah!" The other Black Scorpion Squad member turned around as he felt that something was off. He

only saw a big and bloody mouth looming very rapidly. Then, he was swallowed.

His blood-curdling screams fell silent as he was dragged down into the lake. Other than the blood

gurgling upward, there was nothing left of the person.

"Fuck!" Dozer was horrified. His arms and legs started moving faster like a motor. He didn't stop

swimming as he was trying his best to get to the shore.

On land, he still had a fighting chance even if there was a monster.

However, in the water, his arms and legs were tied. He wasn't able to do much, especially when

confronted with this man-eating mutant piranha. He wouldn't stand a chance against it.

"Fuck! How dare you eat my men! I'll kill you!" Standing by the shore, Garrett was pissed as he took out

an automatic rifle and aimed it behind Dozer.

If the mutant piranha showed itself again, he'd make sure the mutant piranha would be riddled with

bullets.

"Thump!" After a short while, water started splashing around as the mutant piranha resurfaced from the

depths of the lake. It was going after Dozer with an open mouth.

"Go to hell!" Garrett opened fire with gritted teeth. The shooting continued for a while as bullets poured

out like torrential rain, with the majority hitting the mutant piranha.

However, what Garrett didn't expect was that the bullets didn't pierce through the scales. Instead, they

seemed to have struck against iron armor, producing a crisp sound of metal collision.

At the same time, sparks scattered in all directions. His attack was futile.

"What?" Garrett was stunned to see that. He really hadn't expected the scales of the mutant piranha to

be this strong. He couldn't even puncture it with bullets. It was too scary!

"Captain! Save me!" Dozer shouted for help reluctantly. The mutant piranha showed no mercy as it

opened its bloody mouth and went after Dozer violently.

"You freak! Get away from me!" Dozer shouted angrily as he wielded the knife from his waist and

stabbed straight at the mutant piranha's head with all his might.

There was a loud and sharp noise as the blade collided with the scales of the mutant piranha. Sparks

flew but the mutant piranha was unharmed.

The mutant piranha, taking advantage of the momentum from his lunge, swallowed Dozer in one swift

movement.

Dozer was a tall and burly man. He was bigger than the average person. The mutant piranha didn't

swallow him all at once, instead, Dozer's legs were left hanging outside.

Everyone could hear Dozer's painful screams coming from the gaps between the mutant piranha's

sharp teeth. His screams were awful and everyone could hear his fear.

The mutant piranha lifted its head and finally swallowed Dozer whole with a flip of its head. After

swallowing three people, the mutant piranha didn't leave immediately.

Instead, it silently lingered about ten yards from the shore. It was as if it was waiting for its next prey

around the shore. Everyone was shocked beyond words at this point.

The excitement and surprise earlier had completely dissipated and in its place was fear and reluctance.

Three skilled martial artists were eaten by a mutant piranha easily.

It was just downright terrifying!

"Ah!" Having lost three of his team members to the mutant piranha, Garrett was enraged and kept firing

shots at the lake to vent his anger.

The bullets rained down on the lake and created big splashes. Nevertheless, it was useless.

"Damn! It was a good thing that we didn't jump right in. If not, we'd be dead now!"

"Right? I thought the lake was quite safe. I had no idea there'd be a monster like that in it."

"I think that the trio that died were quite unlucky. They were actually eaten alive and there are no

remains of them. It makes my skin crawl just thinking about it!"

Everyone started whispering as they looked at the fading bloody trail on the lake. They felt relieved and

scared at the same time.

"Look! What's that?" A man suddenly pointed to the center of the lake and shouted. Everyone turned to

look at the direction he was pointing and was stunned to see what was before them. They were

terrified.

Fins as huge as ships started appearing one by one from the depths of the lake. Initially, there were

only three to five fins.

Soon, there were around thirty to fifty fins. Slowly, the fins multiplied and it became three to five

hundred of them.

Finally, hundreds and thousands of fins crowded the surface of the lake!

These mutant piranhas seemed to have detected the scent of blood, awakening one by one and were

gathering rapidly.

Within a few short minutes, the misty lake was filled with mutant piranhas. The sheer amount of mutant

piranhas left those present at a loss for words.

It was already difficult to defeat one mutant piranha. What horrors would befall them if the mutant

piranhas amounted to the thousands?

If all of them had gone into the lake earlier, they would already have been eaten by these mutant
