Chapter 27 Seeking Death
"The seat...turned into a bird?"
Sensing the bird that was breathing, having a heartbeat, and constantly flapping its wings, Li Qing couldn't imagine that it was transformed from a lifeless chair.
"Wait... this ability to create life..."
"Could it be that you are...?"
He suddenly recalled that he had only watched two episodes of JOJO, and thought of the stand ability of the protagonist Giorno Giovanna.
But now is not the time for Li Qing to recall the plot.
At this moment, the piece of meat that seemed to never stop had been attracted by the fast fist shadow of Golden Experience.
It abandoned the innocent student whose skin had been gnawed off without any reluctance, and like a mad wolf with red eyes of hunger, it turned around and pounced on the golden experience not far from Giorno.
And just at this moment…
Golden Experience suddenly stopped punching and entered a static state.
At the same time, the bird that was transformed from Giorno's Stand ability and given life by the Golden Experience was like an electric fan that was suddenly turned to fifth gear. It suddenly flapped its wings wildly in an explosive manner.
The extremely fast wing flapping amplitude brought super strong lift, and this small bird, which was only 10 cm long, immediately took off into the air under this powerful lift.
It flew out of the car without a rear windshield at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to see with the naked eye, and then turned into a black shadow as fast as the wind.
And that piece of meat was obviously a guy who "got bored with the old and loved the new".
After the little bird displayed such extreme speed, it quickly responded.
“Huahua…”
Amidst the strange sound of flesh and blood squirming, the mass of flesh that was originally rushing towards Golden Experience and Giorno instantly twisted and deformed in mid-air.
It suddenly turned 90 degrees and bounced in the direction where the bird flew away.
Just like that, as the little bird flapped its wings and flew into the sky, the twisted and terrifying undead meat ball finally followed its target and jumped out of the car.
"Brown Swift."
“The fastest flying bird in the world.”
"Its average speed is 110 to 190 kilometers per hour, and its maximum sprint speed can reach 352.5 kilometers per hour."
Only then did Giorno explain calmly:
“Birds have an innate ability to sense and avoid danger.”
"As long as there are dangerous 'predators' nearby, they will definitely do their best to fly into the sky."
"And in the process, this brown swift naturally became the bait that helped us lure away the monster..."
“…”
Before the commentary was over, Giorno's voice suddenly choked.
Because the brown swift, which he had high hopes for, had just flown out for a second when it was caught by the piece of meat that flew into the air.
As it bounced up, it suddenly deformed and spread out its meat blanket, like a large net shot out from a net gun, quickly and accurately wrapping around its locked prey.
The next moment, the swift was dead.
This swift, born less than three seconds ago, had no time to feel the scenery in the sky before it silently became food for the monster.
At this time, although the driver of the bus in front had realized that something was wrong and stepped on the brakes, the school bus still did not stop completely.
The bus was still moving fast.
This means that in the eyes of that never-satisfied piece of meat, this carload of people is the prey it most wants to devour.
"hateful!"
Looking at the monster that turned around and rushed towards the carriage again, Giorno finally lost his initial indifference:
"The Brown Swift was caught up in less than a second. How fast is this monster?!"
"this…"
Li Qing explained helplessly:
"From what I've observed, it adjusts its movements according to the speed of its prey, always keeping a speed slightly faster than its target."
"That means ... there's probably no upper limit to how fast it can go."
"No upper limit?"
Hearing this terrible news, Giorno's face was filled with solemnity.
At this time, the piece of meat had quickly turned around and jumped out, clinging tightly to the rear and side shells of the bus.
It kept squirming, extending and spreading on the outer shell of the car, and at first glance it looked like the bus was covered with a disgusting pink meat blanket.
"It didn't attack us? Wait..."
Li Qing's face changed.
He dared to swear that even the invincible Diablo had never brought him such a terrifying horror:
"It's eating car engines!"
"No, to be precise, it's consuming the engine's energy!"
“Damn it…”
He said with difficulty:
"I thought this monster could only grow by devouring life, but I didn't expect it to be able to directly use 'energy' as its own food!"
"This monster is still growing in size!"
The truth is just as Li Qing said, and even worse:
At this time, the bus, having lost its engine power, had come to a halt helplessly.
After devouring the energy-rich bus engine, the rapidly expanding piece of meat was not picky about its food and spread its twisted and evil tentacles to every corner it could reach.
Tires, chassis, seats, ceilings…
Everywhere there was that crazy growing carpet of pink flesh.
The entire back half of the bus became a breeding ground for that evil flesh and blood.
If the first attack was the invasion of the bus by pieces of meat, then judging from the current scene, Giorno felt more like he had fallen into a monster's lair.
To make matters worse…
Beside him, besides Li Qing, there was a group of encumbrances that even the enemy couldn't see:
"ah!!"
"It's haunted, run!"
The bus had just stopped when the junior high school students, who had already been frightened by the strange sights, and the bus driver, who had also broken out in a cold sweat, ran out of the bus like crazy.
"Hey, don't move!"
Li Qing tried his best to stop their suicidal behavior, but these panicked ordinary people simply would not listen to such advice.
The piece of meat soon began to tremble with "excitement".
It quickly squirmed and deformed, extending its predatory tentacles toward the fleeing humans.
"There's nothing I can do..."
“Golden experience!”
Seeing that a massacre was about to happen before him, Giorno had no choice but to use the same old trick to delay time:
“Mudamudamuda!”
Golden Experience attacked again, instantly filling the sky with fist shadows.
The second, third, and fourth brown swift were born under the golden fist wind of Golden Experience.
They instinctively sensed the danger posed by the evil piece of meat, and as soon as it appeared, they flapped their wings rapidly, fleeing in three completely different directions towards the vast sky outside the carriage.
But it still didn't work.
That indescribable mass of flesh cannot be explained by common sense.
Faced with the three targets fleeing in three different directions at roughly the same speed, it suddenly squirmed and deformed violently, and extended three slender and powerful tentacles in three directions on the spot.
“Chirp!”
Three brown swifts cried miserably at the same time, and then quickly "melted" into the expanding mass of flesh.
After eating these poor swifts, the twisted mass of flesh suddenly grew a little bigger at an imperceptible degree.
"Wood big wood big wood big wood big!!"
Giorno once again used Golden Experience to activate his Stand ability to create more swift bait.
But at the same time, he knew that this method could only solve the problem temporarily.
He felt like he was feeding a hungry tiger with minced meat. When the "minced meat" in his hand was all thrown away, the tiger would eat him, the person who fed it.
"This is not a solution!"
Giorno said to Li Qing with an anxious look:
"If I continue to use my abilities at such a high intensity, I will be exhausted in no time."
"If we can't think of another way to lure this monster away, sooner or later we will..."
"No…"
His voice suddenly stagnated, and he said meaningfully:
"Mr. Baldhead."
"I and my Golden Experience have become bait to attract that monster."
"Its attention is all on me now. If you want to leave, you can actually leave me behind and run away."
“…”
Li Qing was silent for a while.
Then, he asked in a complicated tone: "Little ghost."
"Just now you could have used an ordinary person as bait and left directly."
"So... why do you want to stand up and seek death?"
"This..."
Because of the huge consumption caused by the continuous activation of abilities, Giorno's voice sounded a little tired:
"Just like people sometimes unconsciously take things handed to them by others, although it seems a bit stupid now, but I didn't think too much about it at the time."
"Is that so?"
"There is an easy game mode but I didn't choose it. Instead I chose a hellish difficulty for myself."
"He is indeed a very stupid fellow."
"In that case..."
Li Qing firmly stayed by Giorno's side:
"Then I can't let a little kid outdo me."
