Before the investigator captain's voice fell, he saw that the old man in mid-air had already moved.
Hu Guofeng made a move with his right hand, and the giant epee whose aura had dissipated returned to his palm with a "crack" sound.
Infused with spiritual energy, the giant heavy sword then lit up with golden aura again. His figure swayed in mid-air, pulling out the afterimage and avoiding the first tentacle.
"Kacha." He immediately turned around and slashed with the giant heavy sword in his hand. The golden sword light jumped and the sound of metal friction reappeared.
In the blink of an eye, the root of the second thick tentacle was severed, and the cut was neat and clean, easier than cutting tofu.
The severed tentacles fell straight down and hit the road heavily. Unfortunately, an unmanned car was flattened on the spot, which shows how heavy it is.
"This..." The investigator captain was speechless. He didn't expect this old man to be so strong.
Before the matter was over, Hu Guofeng's figure holding a giant heavy sword moved again, and in the blink of an eye he came to the steel elevated side of the bridge. This time, he held the sword in both hands and slashed downwards.
"Crack...crash..." The steel structure tore apart instantly, and the third tentacle fell into the river together, creating a huge splash.
"Roar..." The alien beast's body suddenly became unbalanced, and its entire body fell downwards. In addition to anger, its roar also contained a layer of fear. It could not understand why the short creature in front of it was so powerful.
"Crack..." Hu Guofeng stepped forward, kept moving, and slashed out with his fourth sword.
Four of the eight tentacles of the alien beast had been severed, and this time the giant heavy sword in his hand was finally overwhelmed and cracked. However, Hu Guofeng did not hesitate at all and drew the sword again.
Then, a scene that shocked everyone below appeared. The powerful, terrifying, ugly beast that pushed them to the brink of death was actually like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, being killed by the man who was over seventy years old.
The figure is driven into a deadlock little by little.
The terrifying tentacles, which were as strong as alloy steel, fell like rain, accompanied by purple blood.
People had completely quieted down, no one was running away anymore, they were just staring blankly at this unforgettable sight.
What was even more shocking was the investigators, who knew very well how powerful this strange beast was.
Although it cannot reach the level of the third-level high-level beast, with its huge body and eight tentacles that are comparable to alloy steel, it is stronger than ordinary third-level high-level alien beasts.
If you want to eliminate it quickly, unless Director James, who is at the peak of his third level, takes action personally, otherwise, it will take several high-level third-level investigators to attack it together.
However, at this moment, in their eyes, such a powerful beast was gradually cut into balls by this enthusiastic old casual cultivator.
"This old man is so strong, he feels even more powerful than Director James." The investigator captain couldn't help but think.
At this time, the gray-bone octopus beast, which was beaten and had no power to fight back, finally let out a sharp roar of fear, then opened a hole in its body and spit out a stream of extremely cold frost towards Hu Guofeng.
Immediately, he jumped off the bridge across the river, fell into the cold river, and fled into the distance.
Everyone at the scene was shocked. The ferocious beast that invaded the city actually escaped?!
"Chase! We can't let it escape." The investigator captain was stunned for a moment, then woke up, shouted loudly, and jumped off the bridge with his sword in hand without any hesitation.
The other investigators who broke free from the confinement of the ice all jumped off the bridge like dumplings in a pot, chasing after the escaping alien beasts desperately.
They know very well that if this kind of aquatic alien evil is allowed to escape, there will be endless troubles in the future, and cities built along rivers and seas will most likely suffer its revenge.
"Escaped?" In the sky, Hu Guofeng dodged the frost of the gray-bone octopus beast, and felt nervous when he saw it escaping.
To cut weeds, you need to remove the roots.
He just hurriedly flew to the river, unfolded his perception, and his mental power instantly spread out, covering a large area of water, and then chased the escaping gray-bone octopus beast from bottom to top along the river surface.
Fortunately, the gray-bone octopus beast was seriously injured and could not escape very quickly. The next second, his perception was suddenly different.
Under the gray-blue icy river water, a rapidly swimming source emitting third-order spiritual energy fluctuations was moving into the distance.
"I found you." The expressionless Hu Guofeng secretly muttered, lowered his flight altitude, flew over the water, and immediately raised the giant heavy sword, increased the amount of spiritual energy infused, locked the target with his mental power, and struck a fatal blow.
"call out."
The ear-piercing sound pierced through the air again, and the giant heavy sword emitting golden aura was instantly submerged into the water.
Although the gray-bone octopus creature was desperately escaping in the water, it sensed the danger behind it, but it was too late to dodge.
"Poof." The giant epee that came flying from the sky successfully hit the target.
The gray-bone octopus in the water rolled several times in pain, and the faint spiritual light on its body quickly dimmed. It stopped struggling and sank to the bottom of the river.
In Hu Guofeng's perception, the target's spiritual energy fluctuations dissipated, and the life breath was completely cut off.
"It's done." Hu Guofeng nodded, raised his hand, and the giant heavy sword inserted into the body of the gray-bone octopus moved backward, broke through the water, and returned to Hu Guofeng's hand.
Injecting spiritual energy, he activated the newly developed ring-shaped space spiritual weapon assigned to him by the General Administration last week, put away the giant epee, and then stopped staying, decisively increasing the distance and preparing to return.
At the same time, he turned his head and glanced at the bridge casually, wanting to confirm the safety of the citizens.
But just at this glance, his entire movement paused.
I saw that most of the people in the field of vision had left the cross-river bridge, and only a few figures were still on the bridge.
Among them was a figure that stood out from the crowd, running towards him.
"This little girl should be from China. What is she planning to do?" Hu Guofeng was stunned for a moment.
After a while, I saw that the little girl had crossed the railing and ran to the edge of the bridge, standing on tiptoes, jumping and swinging her arms.
She thought for a while, then pulled off her scarf, holding it in her hand and waving it, as if she wanted to attract Hu Guofeng's attention.
"Grandpa, thank you, my name is Jiang Xiaowen, can you hear me!?" Jiang Xiaowen shouted with all her strength.
She didn't know why she did this, maybe because it was the first time she encountered such a dangerous thing, so she especially wanted to express her gratitude to her savior.
Hu Guofeng, who looked like a farm grandfather, had a kind smile on his face. If they hadn't seen him kill a two- or three-story-high alien beast easily, no one would have thought that he was an extremely powerful practitioner.
"What an interesting little girl." Hu Guofeng laughed in his heart. Then he looked carefully and suddenly felt that this little girl's clothes looked familiar, as if...
"This little girl seems to be the one who saved the child just now?" Hu Guofeng was a little impressed and looked at the other party with more and more interest.
After thinking for a while, he flew towards the little girl's location, drew an arc in the air, and landed in front of Jiang Xiaowen.
Jiang Xiaowen, waving her scarf and standing on the edge of the bridge, had an expression of disbelief on her face when she saw the old man in the sky actually coming to her.
"Huh? This little girl has great qualifications!" After Hu Guofeng got closer, he felt that the psychic energy fluctuations on Jiang Xiaowen's body were as strong as the first stage of the second stage, and he was slightly surprised.
"Thank you, grandpa, if you hadn't come to rescue me just now, I would have died at the hands of that strange beast." Jiang Xiaowen, who was in a very nervous mood, said quickly.
Hu Guofeng nodded and said with a smile, "Little girl, are you an international student?"
"Yes." Jiang Xiaowen nodded, "I have graduated and will return to China next week."
"What are your plans after returning to China?" Hu Guofeng asked.
"I..." Jiang Xiaowen, who was about to say that she would inherit the family business according to her family's arrangements after returning to China, hesitated for a moment, her eyes were slightly gloomy, and then said, "I haven't thought about it yet."
"Little girl, you have good qualifications. Have you ever thought about becoming an investigator?" Hu Guofeng asked.
"Ah?" Jiang Xiaowen was startled, and her dark eyes regained color, "Can I become an investigator?"
Hu Guofeng smiled, then took out a business card from the dimensional space and handed it over. Jiang Xiaowen took the business card and heard Hu Guofeng say.
"Little girl, when you return to China, take this title to Superpower Management and say that I recommended you to go there, and they will naturally arrange for you to join the company."
"It's so easy to become an investigator?" Jiang Xiaowen said blankly.
Hu Guofeng smiled and said nothing. He estimated the time and found that James and his party should be arriving soon. He immediately took off and flew towards the shore.
Jiang Xiaowen saw the old man flying away and looked down at the business card in her hand.
The name is Hu Guofeng, the address is the General Administration of Supernatural Power Management in Beijing, and the contact number is: no.
Looking at the extremely simple business card in her hand, Jiang Xiaowen's thoughts were swirling, and a bold idea began to take root in her heart.
"Wenwen!" At this time, a voice came from behind and she quickly put the business card away close to her body before returning and standing with her aunt.
"Why did you come here? It's so dangerous. Let's get out of here quickly." My aunt said anxiously. The strange beast that suddenly appeared just now really scared her.
"Yes." Jiang Xiaowen nodded and said with a smile, "Go home... Auntie, as you said, Australia is too dangerous. Let's go home and book a flight and return to China tomorrow!"
At this time, a large rumbling sound was heard from the river in the distance. Support troops carrying heavy thermal weapons finally arrived, and powerful investigators also arrived at the scene.

Rongcheng, inside a cafeteria.
Zhang Yunliu raised his hand to place the empty bowl on the table, drank the juice in one gulp, then covered his mouth with his hand and burped.
He leaned back and leaned on the back of his chair. The table in front of him was filled with empty plates.
Nearby, some guests looked at him in awe, and some even secretly picked up their mobile phones to take pictures.
This was not the first time a similar scene had happened. At first, Zhang Yunliu was a little embarrassed and shy, but as time went by, he became thicker-skinned.
Ever since he bought the spiritual liquid from Qisehua, his cultivation speed has increased by leaps and bounds, and he even awakened his superpower last Tuesday.
"Life is so unpredictable. Who would have thought that I, Zhang Yunliu, would have such a day." Zhang Yunliu felt the "turbulent" flow of spiritual energy in his body, and couldn't help but smile with joy on his face.
But after a while, he sighed secretly, "It would be great if the awakened superpower didn't have such side effects... The current Big Eater Competition prohibits practitioners from participating, otherwise I would be able to participate."
The side effect of Zhang Yunliu's awakened power was that he had to eat a lot of food afterwards. After practicing his awakened power at home, he went out to find this cafeteria and waited for hunger to come.
Shortly after arriving at the restaurant, he felt a strong sense of hunger as expected. Zhang Yunliu had no choice but to keep eating to combat the side effects of his powers. The food he ate would be quickly decomposed into nutrients with astonishing efficiency.
After eating until now, he finally felt that his digestion speed had slowed down.
"Huh... It's almost done!" Zhang Yunliu touched his belly and sighed. After all, sheep can't catch a bunch of people... I will choose another cafeteria next time.
Just as I was about to get up and leave, suddenly, the phone on the table lit up, and it was a push message from the news software.
Zhang Yunliu subconsciously wanted to cross out the push message, but when he saw the title of the news, his whole body was shocked.
An hour ago, the cross-river bridge in the northern part of Huguo's main island and the city of Australia were attacked by alien beasts at the same time. There were no casualties in Huguo, but dozens of casualties in Australia?!
Dozens of casualties? This happened in the city... What kind of plane did the relevant Australian personnel use?
Alien beasts actually appeared in the city and caused so many casualties. Zhang Yunliu suddenly lost his composure and quickly clicked on the push button. Two articles appeared on the screen.
Zhang Yunliu chose an article about dozens of casualties. The news description was very concise. It was probably about the mist on the cross-river bridge, the appearance of alien beasts attacking humans, and the description of the incident of being killed, accompanied by several pictures.
The pictures in the article were taken from a distance at first glance. Heavy fog engulfed the middle section of the bridge. There were also several pictures of burning vehicles, broken bridge decks, twisted steel, ships on the river... and evacuated people.
Panicked crowd.
Some sensitive scenes, including the huge tentacles of the gray-bone octopus beast, as well as the dead and injured people, were not released. However, just from the traces of destruction at the scene, it was enough to feel the ferocity of the attack.
At the end of the article, a blurry picture is attached.
In the picture, there is still white fog, and a figure flying in the sky can be vaguely seen. The picture is very blurry, and the specific appearance of this figure cannot be clearly seen.
"...According to the description of survivors at the scene, during the crisis, a powerful practitioner holding a giant heavy sword appeared and helped local authorities stop and kill the alien beasts that attacked the crowd, saving hundreds of people.
Although his identity has not been revealed, multiple witnesses have proven that this practitioner is an old man with a Chinese face.
More follow-up reports will be updated later, please continue to pay attention." It was written at the end of the article. Zhang Yunliu pulled up the comment area and saw that there had been more than 10,000 replies.
