Section 119 Backblade
Chapter 119: Anti-blade
In just less than five minutes, six skeleton soldiers were dragged into their nest by mutant creatures lurking in the backlight corner. The building was gloomy and terrifying, and the black drainage pipes were heard one after another. The screams of humans before death were heard, and the torn muscles and the chewing of teeth on their bones. Occasionally, there were grenade explosions or bullet strafing noises mixed in, but they were soon covered by the movement and even more chaos and struggle. Only the strong blood that was swept back and forth in the city was swept by the airflow, gradually spreading.
Lin Xiang bent over, like a cat at night, walking through the ruins quickly and silently. His footsteps followed Claude, from far or near, and kept at a distance of twenty to fifty meters. The route he chose was the roof or open space with sufficient light, and his flexible footsteps and agile movements ensured sufficient speed. The dispersed perception abilities were centered on him, forming a circle without actual shape. The mutant creature hidden in the dark had a slight movement, and the brain could immediately detect it, and at the same time, under the guidance of the nervous system, urging the body to make an instinctive avoidance.
Claude was also running, but his speed was not as fast as Lin Xiang. A high-level parasite with five-star level should not be so slow, but the lieutenant colonel had no choice - he had to take care of his soldiers. Even an elite warrior with level three evolution ability could not run at full speed and defend his back without cover.
"Swoosh-swoosh-"
The silver-bright thin silk shot down from the second floor of the adjacent street building accurately penetrated the right knee of a skeleton soldier. The powerful solidification ability of the silk thread and the nerve paralysis toxin contained in it grabbed him like an invisible giant hand. Looking at his teammates who were getting farther and farther away, the soldier's face suddenly flashed with an extremely ferocious and violent expression. He pulled out the fighting dagger from his waist and slashed it hard at the top of his knees. He tried his best to cut it off. Surprisingly, the sharp zigzag blade only drew a thin, light white crease on the solid combat uniform - the combat uniform issued by the Skeleton Knights, whose defense ability was really amazing.
The soldier took off his clothes as fast as he was going crazy. Soon, the whole uniform had shedded from his body, looking at the sticky white silk threads that were penetrated, becoming harder and harder like a stone. He had no sense of consciousness. With a red eyes full of redness, he raised his dagger again, gritted his teeth and slashed his legs. With a heart-wrenching scream from the depths of his throat, the fragile flesh cuts to both sides, revealing bones that tightly clamp the blade and have a harder texture. The pale-faced soldier sucked the air, with pain and despair enough to make himself crazy, held the hilt with his trembling hands, pulled it out with force, and slashed again.
One, two, three...
The boiling blood splashed on the dry ground and was immediately sucked away by the concrete and bricks that maintained the natural residual heat. The soldier who finally cut off his thighs supported his body with his arms and crawled on the rough road. The thick white marrow liquid flowing out from the center of the leg bones mixed in the blood, dragging out a very long wet mark. More than ten meters away, the broken leg that originally belonged to him but was ruthlessly abandoned still maintained a crooked standing posture. It seemed like a sculpture made of special materials.
"Swoosh--"
A silver filament shot out from the dark corner again, and penetrated into the soldier's neck accurately and fiercely. The sudden attack caused the young man's eyes to stagnate suddenly. He tried his best to support his body, as if he wanted to speak, but could not make a sound. The strong paralysis toxin quickly spread inside his body. Soon, he could no longer accept any orders from his brain, and could only maintain stiff and fixed movements, completely solidifying in place.
This is the closest street to the outside of the city. Now it has become the best battlefield for slaughtering mutant creatures and surrounding prey.
They fear light, but they do not mean they are also afraid of humans standing in the sun.
They are very smart. In the evolution of radiation, the increasingly considerable brains have also produced unimaginable wisdom. They know how to create darkness to block light, and how to maximize their advantages. Especially those mutated creatures with ejection and splashing abilities, they are densely clustered inside buildings on both sides of the street, firing venom, hardening needles, hair tips, or other similar weapons to soldiers running on the street from positions that cannot be reached by the sun. Without the cover of armored vehicles, the fragile human body cannot resist this terrible and vicious attack.
He pulled out his pistol and quietly approached behind him, blew the head of a dog creature who wanted to launch a sudden attack. Lin Xiang jumped and bounced onto the outer wall of another building, and used the power of left and right counter-punches to slow down the falling speed. As soon as his feet landed, his body had instantly moved sideways and quickly approached the direction where Lieutenant Colonel Skeleton was.
He felt that these mutated creatures posed a great threat to him. Compared with the last encounter with Osvid's team, they were obviously much smarter. The way was no longer a mess of fighting each other. They knew how to cooperate, know how to create obstacles to offset the advantages of their opponents, and know how to use the terrain to surround and kill. If no accidents occurred, no one of the skeleton soldiers attacking outside the city would be killed. Even if they had three times the strength and speed (level three evolution), they would not be able to leave this terrifying ruin alive.
Without the strong physical strength and adaptability of wild animals, wisdom is the only advantage of human beings in dominating the earth. Lin Xiang does not believe that all mutated creatures in the ruins have wisdom, but judging from the organization and division of labor they show similar to the army, there should be leaders in the ruins that can control and command them. The number may be only one, or more. As for the specific types and biological characteristics... only God knows.
Dozens of corpses fell on the ground in a row, and many people's wounds were still bleeding outwards, and their bodies and limbs were still twitching slightly under the control of residual nerves. The beautiful light gray combat suit was completely soaked in red liquid. Even so, there were still sharp horny thorny tips and filaments shot out from the darkness, densely pierced on the surface of the body that was not dead. The tactics adopted by the mutant creatures were surprisingly consistent with the ancient hunters. They also used their superior firepower to annihilate or kill targets, and then they would collect their worthy benefits after the hunting activity was over.
There are only half an hour before sunset. Although they are hungry, they have enough patience to wait for the damn UV rays to completely disappear from the sky. At that time, the stimulating and cruel hunting will become a feast for enjoying the trophy. There is not much food to eat in this era, and even the smelly rotten meat is delicious. Human corpses exposed to the sun for half an hour will not rot so quickly and can still remain fresh.
Claude has lost his usual calmness and calmness, and the white skin surface shows anger red caused by the accelerated blood flow. He skillfully pulled out the empty magazine from the assault rifle, took out a new one from the equipment bag in the back, aiming it at the caliper under the gun body. He pulled the bolt hard, rolled sideways on the spot, and flexibly flashed two horny spikes shot from the bottom of the building, and shot in the direction of the attack. He turned his head and roared wildly at the remaining soldiers on the cross section of the highway: "Run! If you don't want to die, run faster for me-"
He always thought it was very safe to enter the ruins during the day, but he never dreamed that the mutated creatures with wisdom had turned this place into a hunting ground full of traps.
A total of fifty skeleton soldiers, including Lin Xiang, entered the ruins together. Now, there are only six people left within the sight that can be seen by the naked eye.
They were already running with all their might. Although their movement speed was not as agile as Lieutenant Colonel and Lin Xiang, it was obviously beyond the normal standards of level 3 evolution, reaching at least level 4, and even higher. In the face of death threat, the human body can indeed burst out with powerful abilities beyond imagination.
The sun has tilted to a distance of only a silk thread from the horizon. Without wind, the concentration of the radiant clouds has become thicker and thicker. The ultraviolet rays shot from the sky are so weak that it is difficult to detect. If it weren't for fear of the last dimness remaining on the surface of the sky, the mutated creatures in the ruins had already rushed forward. Within the effective perception range, Lin Xiang could even detect their strong murderous intent and impatient bloodthirsty impulse.
"boom--"
A piece of cement broken column, six or seven meters long, suddenly flew out from the broken wall on the left side of the street, like a shell that broke out from the chamber, hitting the back of a skeleton soldier accurately. He didn't even have time to scream, and his fragile body was like a baseball hit by a thick stick. He was knocked out more than ten meters away, and fell heavily into the ruins, stirring up a large area of dust.
"roar--"
In the direction of the cement block flying, a tubular creature with a diameter of more than half a meter crawled quickly from the bottom of the ruins of the building. It wriggled forward like a snake, and its bent and twisted body stretched out more than ten meters from the ground, without seeing any signs of its tail. It quickly climbed to the nearest corpse, relying on its muscle expansion, widened its mouth into an oval with a cross-section of more than five meters, wrapping the entire dead body. Its body was very soft, and a layer of translucent mucus secreted from the red skin surface. The traces of crawling through the ground were soaked in moisture by body fluids. The faint sunlight shone on the surface of its naked skin, emitting a "chi" burning sound and a pungent burning smell. The severe pain made it tighten its body quickly, and with the prey it had just obtained, it quickly shrank back and slipped back to the dark nest underground.
This is probably a mutated earthworm or other similar creatures that survived from the old era. They live underground all year round and are obviously more afraid of light than other creatures on the ground. They would rather endure the scorching sun than rush out to grab food. This can only show one thing - the feast in the ruins is likely to be forced to advance under the impatience and hunger of the monsters.
More meat pipe insects crawled out of the ruins, blocks of cement, waste bricks, earth and stones formed a dense net, and smashed the last few survivors covered in it.
The weapon in Lin Xiang's hand has been replaced with ak100 with a higher rate of fire. He was very fast. While he was putting the trigger between his right finger, a long and trimmed blade was also inserted into the gap between his middle finger and ring finger. His muscles suddenly bulged up at the same time, and he ran wildly, flexibly avoiding the cement bricks falling from the sky, and quickly ran towards the location where Claude was.
Lieutenant Colonel stood next to an electric pole on the left side of the street and pulled the trigger towards a meat tube worm that was attacking from behind. The dense bullet burst into a series of blood holes on his soft body. In a strange sound similar to a baby's crying, the injured creature raised his upper body from the ground, like an ugly, dirty, heterogeneous water pipe, and threw it down hard at Cloud.
"Get out of here, they are too many-"
The lieutenant colonel instinctively turned his head and saw Lin Xiang running towards him like a train with full speed. He turned sideways instinctively, and before he could fully adjust his posture, Lin Xiang had already hit his body hard. He grabbed the lieutenant colonel's right shoulder with his left hand, lifted it up, and then began to speed up.
The moment the wrist and shoulders were in contact, Lin Xiang's fingers had already clamped the blade and cut it down hard. Just a stroke, regardless of whether the goal was achieved, the sharp blade had been thrown away.
This movement can only be done once - it can be explained as a natural pull of a body collision.
The second repeated cuts were cut, and Claude's keen perception could immediately know what was going on. Without absolute certainty, he could not take risks.
The flexibility of the combat suit was too strong. From the corner of his eyes, Lin Xiang glanced at the rolled blade and led the lieutenant colonel to run faster and faster. The assault rifle shot in front of him continuously. After clearing the light's line of sight, his arm was backgloved into the gun belt and slid on his shoulders. He took off the two anti-infantry grenades hanging from his waist with his fingers flexibly inserted into the pull pin and gently struggled, pressed down the pressing bolt, and drew two irregular arcs in the air, jumping and falling more than 20 meters behind him.
"boom--"
The smoke rising from the air mixed with flames spread out in an instant. With the help of visual cover that could only last for a moment, Lin Xiang almost dragged Claude into the bottom of a building next to the street. Several mutant mice with a body length of more than two meters rushed towards him, but were shot backwards by a fan of the lieutenant colonel. Lin Xiang did not delay for a second, and his feet suddenly accelerated, and rushed into a green and mottled steel door directly in front of him with an astonishing speed with the lieutenant colonel. The moment his body just hid into the crack of the door, the last two grenades that were buckled into the swarming monster group, exploded into a fishy, dirty, rotten flesh and blood.
This was once a refrigeration storage for a fresh food supermarket. The thickened walls and all-steel gates were enough to stop any mutant creatures. The last time I followed Osvid's team into the ruins, Lin Xiang recorded all the available terrain and rooms on the route. He searched with his perception ability, and there was no sign of the existence of mutant creatures here.
The two of them worked together to press down the door latch as thick as an arm. Just as the wrist left the steel bolt, Lin Xiang's right-handed clothes cuff suddenly slid down a military fighting dagger. He held the handle of the dagger with his backhand and stabbed towards Claude's side neck.
Lieutenant Colonel Skeleton seemed to have expected a sudden change. His arms were crossed across his chest, his ten fingers were clawed, and he flashed his daggers on his side, and his hands were buckled against Lin Xiang's right arm's shoulders and elbow joints. He felt the danger. Lin Xiang quickly undone his body, and with the help of his inertia, he rushed forward and rushed to the opposite wall more than 50 meters away before he stood firm again.
Claude half-sided, his legs slightly bent, and stood there in a standard fighting posture. His expression was extremely calm, and he did not show any anger after being deceived. His gray pupils were slightly narrowed. While carefully observing the internal environment of the refrigerator, he also deeply portrayed every detail of his opponent in his mind.
"You killed Osvid and Hausen?" Lieutenant Colonel Skeleton spoke slowly, without any excitement, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"That's right!" Lin Xiang suddenly laughed very unexpectedly, but his voice was terrifyingly cold.
Claude twisted his neck and slowly moved his body joints: "Why? Killing requires a reason. I know that Osvid and Hausen have bad tempers, especially some very annoying special hobbies. Young man, I'll give you a chance to appeal. If you can come up with enough evidence to do so, I can't pursue everything that happened."
Lin Xiang was still smiling, and the dagger flexibly turned a silver-blade flower between his fingers: "I'm curious, how did you find me?"
"At the beginning, I actually didn't doubt you. But your disguise was too perfect and there was no flaw at all. According to the information obtained by the Knights, there were at least two powerful parasites in Yinyue Town, and a large number of advanced evolutionary humans. They all obeyed you. In addition to suppressing with strength or superb command skills, I can't think of any more reasons. Referring to your mercenary qualification assessment data in Crescent City, I classify you as one of the command talents with average strength. Captain Sok and D
