Chapter 18: Light Chasing Club
Don't come over here, don't come over here...
do not come!!
Xu Shen's brain trembled, and he punched , hitting the little girl in the face.
The speed of this punch exceeded the little girl's reaction. She was stunned for a moment, then was hit in the face and her body flew backwards instantly.
Xu Shen got up from the ground and saw the little girl who fell down also got up at the same time. However, her innocent and lovely cheek was now sunken by the punch, like a piece of cloth being pulled towards somewhere, and her whole face became distorted.
"squeak!!"
The little girl let out an angry scream like an insect, and used all her limbs in her lower body to rush forward like a catapult.
Xu Shen was shocked and quickly drew his sword to block.
Although they were here for observation, they were all equipped with iron swords for training, just in case.
And right now, it’s the worst “what if” scenario.
block!
Xu Shen thought about the sword-holding postures of other people he had observed in battle over the past few days, and quickly held the sword across his chest. With a bang, the little girl swung her sickle arm and slashed forward.
The sword tip shook violently, and Xu Shen felt as if he was swept by a huge force. His fingers trembled. Perhaps it was because his posture for parrying the force was wrong. Under the impact of this huge force, he was unable to hold the iron sword tightly.
The iron sword was thrown out and fell more than ten meters away.
Xu Shen took several steps back and looked at the iron sword that bounced back with a pale face.
He knew that he lacked combat experience and couldn't even hold the sword steadily.
If Mom was here...
Looking at the little girl lying on the ground in front of him, ready to attack again, Xu Shen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the scene when his "mother" was hunting for "dishes" in his mind.
Clean, simple, yet deadly.
My "mother" had taught me in a casual chat that when cutting vegetables, you should start from the softest part...
Countless images overlapped in my mind in an instant.
At the same time, the little girl's attack also bounced out instantly.
Xu Shen's pupils turned into nothingness, and time seemed to slow down in an instant. He could see the little girl's movements and even her slightly cracked mouth.
Xu Shen's body suddenly fell to the ground, his bones crackling, and his feet and palms stretched out in a strange posture, like a toad or a spider.
Under this strong stimulation of death, he originally imagined himself sitting at the dining table and enjoying "Mom's" delicious food, but at this moment, he himself did not notice that his thoughts changed and he imagined himself as "Mom".
The delicious taste of the ingredients stays in the body and even wraps around your fingertips.
Bang!
Xu Shen's body suddenly jumped forward like a bouncing rabbit and collided with the little girl.
At the moment of collision, his vision focused and his body suddenly swayed slightly, avoiding the little girl's sickle arm by a hair's breadth.
And his body was pressed close to the little girl's arms.
"Mom" said that it was also the most delicious place.
Xu Shen's palm was filled with tremendous power, his five fingers were like sharp claws, and with the powerful force of his own, plus the force covering his fingertips, he actually tore the little girl's dress in an instant and stabbed into her heart.
Wet, hot, and soft.
Xu Shen pulled it out instantly, and seeing the little girl's surprised look, he stepped back and kicked the little girl away.
The little girl's body flew backwards and rolled seven or eight meters away. Black blood like mist flowed out from her chest, and her white dress was instantly stained black.
Xu Shen was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses.
He stared blankly at what was in his hand, feeling somewhat incredulous.
It's that simple?
It turns out that what "Mom" said is true...
Xu Shen looked at the little girl again.
The little girl was trembling as she climbed up from the ground, with a sad smile on her face: "What...it turns out that big brother is the monster..."
The body shook for a moment, then fell down again. There was no sound at all, only large amounts of black blood seeped out, staining the ground black.
Xu Shen's expression changed. He looked at the little girl who seemed to be dead, and then looked at the "delicious food" in his hand.
This delicacy was almost the same as the one his "mom" prepared for him, even the smell was very familiar.
He couldn't help but think of the information he learned in the training camp. In addition to the purifying agent, there are other ways to increase your strength...
Xu Shen knew that he had to leave here as soon as possible. If others saw him killing a D-level ruins beast, he would probably be sent to the front line soon.
…
…
15 minutes later.
At the battle site behind the wall, four figures flew past quickly, and suddenly a man in front of them braked and stopped. He looked at the open space in disbelief and astonishment.
There wasn't even a guide rope around the dirty and messy open space, which meant that even the Fog People didn't come to clean up here.
And next to the garbage that was blown here by the wind, the body of the little girl was lying quietly, and the black blood had dyed the area two or three meters below her body black.
"It...is dead?"
The four of them were all shocked and looked at each other.
This is a D-level ruins beast. How could it die after being lost for just a short while?
Could it be that we encountered the official Zhanxu team?
The four of them approached quickly. They were worried that the little girl was faking her death, so they were very cautious.
The leader's weapon was a spear. He opened the little girl's body and immediately saw that the fatal wound came from her heart, where there was a hole in her chest.
"It's a one-hit kill..."
When the few people saw it clearly, they all took a deep breath and felt the hairs on their bodies stand up.
Could it be that it encountered a captain-level ruins slayer?
This is too unlucky...
but,
Who made it run out just to play?
The little girl should have stayed at home obediently... Several people looked at each other, looked around, and found that there were no signs of fierce fighting. In addition, there was a fatal penetrating wound on the chest. Obviously, this was a battle with a huge disparity in strength.
"Damn it, we'll have a hard time explaining ourselves when we get back."
A young man was a little angry. He stepped on the little girl's head and rubbed it back and forth: "You are so disobedient, so disobedient, you have to run around everywhere!"
The people next to him didn't stop him, and another person frowned and said, "It should be the captain of the official team of the Xumi Bureau that we just met who did it, right?"
"Strange, if it was the captain who did it, why did they get separated? Did they encounter some other more terrifying ruins?" another person asked puzzledly.
"I don't know. Let's take its body back first. Then we can ask the association to investigate the Zhanxu mission carried out in this area, and we will know what's going on." said the middle-aged man in the lead.
He lifted the little girl's shoulders and glanced at the other person: "Help me lift her."
"Why do I have to lift its feet..." the other person grumbled, but still helped obediently.
…
…
Xu Shen walked along the intricate railroad tracks from the other side of the street and returned to the small building where he had hunted the E-level beast.
Green copper cars hummed along the way, carrying fog dwellers going to work. On the road, some fog dwellers could be seen walking along guide ropes, passing by Xu Shen.
The Fog People are the lowest level of labor in Termite City. Because they cannot see, they are unable to do many high-paying jobs and can only do the simplest but most tiring tasks.
Often the Fog People are also referred to as “laboring animals”.
Xu Shen looked at these blind people and suddenly remembered that he was like this before he could "see", exploring along the guide rope to go to work.
Maybe at that time, there were also Xu's killers passing by him, and they were even dragging Xu's hideous corpse in their hands...
"Maybe not being able to see is not a bad thing..." Xu Shen thought to himself.
When Xu Shen returned to the vicinity of the small building, he did not walk out directly, as that would seem too conspicuous. Once people knew about the little girl's death, his "conspicuous appearance" would be an admission of guilt.
Hiding in the darkness of another small building, Xu Shen quietly observed and waited, looking very timid.
Ten minutes later, two cars suddenly came rushing over with a buzzing sound.
Two black armored vehicles rushed in front of the small building. Five people jumped out of the vehicles and looked around vigilantly.
"Here."
At this time, a figure walked out of another small building. It was Liu Feng who had led the little girl away earlier.
He looked a little disheveled, with a deep wound on his arm. Xu Shen recognized at a glance that it was caused by the little girl's arm.
Soon, the five people completed the information handover with Liu Feng. At this time, the young man named "Brother Xu" also appeared in the distance, and Qi Tianming was beside him.
"What about the rest?"
Liu Feng only saw two people and his expression changed slightly.
When they got separated earlier, he led away the D-level Xu beast and was nearly chased and killed. Fortunately, at the critical moment, someone came and scared the Xu beast away.
If that Xu escaped and turned to hunt down the others, the whole group would probably be wiped out...
"That Xu is back, and we got separated."
Brother Xu was still frightened. When he saw Liu Feng's arm, he knew that he was in great danger. After all, it was a D-level beast. Although Brother Liu was very powerful, it was still too dangerous for him to fight alone.
Qi Tianming looked frightened and said nothing.
Liu Feng's face was gloomy, and he said, "If they are alive, we must see them. If they are dead, we must see their bodies. Even if it is just residue, we must confirm their death."
Brother Xu nodded.
After hearing what they said, Xu Shen did not hide any longer and came out of the small building.
He knew that except for the unlucky guy standing in the center at the beginning, everyone else should be fine.
After all, the little girl's first target was him.
"Newcomer!"
When Liu Feng saw Xu Shen, he was stunned for a moment, then he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He had no impression of Xu Shen's name, but he knew that he was the special newcomer and some people in the bureau were paying attention to and looking forward to him.
It was a blessing for him that the other party didn't die, at least he wouldn't be criticized.
"You're okay. Have you been hiding here all the time?" Brother Xu also breathed a sigh of relief same idea as Liu Feng.
Xu Shen had not forgotten how the other party had run away on his own before, but facing that terrifying little girl, he could understand the other party's behavior and shook his head:
"I was running around and got quite far, so I found a place to hide. I remembered that Brother Xu said reinforcements from the bureau would arrive soon, so I estimated the time and it should be about the same, so I just got back."
"You are quite brave to come back." Brother Xu couldn't help but smile.
Liu Feng glanced at Xu Shen and nodded slightly. The first time he faced the ruins was a D-level event, but he was still able to survive. In addition to being lucky, his performance was also good.
If I had run around or screamed, I would have died long ago.
He was even frightened by Xu to the point of being unable to move, and died even faster.
The five reinforcements didn't pay much attention to Xu Shen and the others. One of them asked, "Old Liu, who was the person who helped you scare away that monster?"
"It's the guy from the Light Chasing Club."
Liu Feng's face suddenly darkened, and he said, "This Xu escaped here because of their pursuit. It's not the bureau's fault for the investigation error."
"So it was those guys..."
The five people's expressions changed slightly. It was obvious that they were aware of each other's existence. They immediately shook their heads and said nothing more.
Soon, the five people, together with Liu Feng and others, began searching everywhere nearby.
Looking for the market and looking for people.
Xia Jingxiang, Zhao Yuan and others who were hiding in the dark corners of other small buildings were all found.
"It seems that the beast has been dealt with by them..."
Under a wall, five people stood with Liu Feng, Xu Shen and others, looking at the dried black blood on the ground.
The bloodstain has turned gray and is about to disappear into reality.
