1132. Disaster Causes Xiao Qiang
"No, no! I won't go out... Demon, I know nothing!"
The little boy curled up and covered his ears with his hands, as if he was frightened.
He didn't dare to look at Joyna's face, and kept shaking his head, and soon cried again, "It's the demon! The demon is coming, it's the demon's voice!"
Joyna couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, thinking that he was talking about herself, after all, someone among the prisoners had said similar things. She immediately said coldly, "Why do you say I am a demon?"
"Light, don't light! It's you... the devil you attracted!"
"Light? What I attract...?"
Joyna was stunned, her expression frightened, and she immediately focused her breath, but she didn't hear any sound. She immediately turned off the headlights, and the surroundings fell into darkness, but she still didn't notice any movement.
She seemed to be inspired by his words, but was curious if the little boy knew how outrageous she was wrong?
What this kid said was crazy. What the hell is going on?
Joyna suddenly remembered a symptom that she had heard before - posttraumatic psychological syndrome. Some people's mental state will be on the verge of collapse and fall into various neuro-anxiety aberrations after being seriously injured and threatened by their personal safety.
She immediately understood that perhaps these people were overly frightened when they were captured by the sand bandits, or had seen something terrible, so that they were physically and mentally traumatized, and then they were mentally dazed by the sand bandits' giant numb grass, so they went crazy from time to time.
But this is just Joyna's speculation and the explanation is also very far-fetched. What is the truth? I can't see it yet, so why not try it again.
Joyna reached out to touch the little boy's body, trying to calm him down, but her spine shivered. Her mouth suddenly became dry and her fingertips were numb.
The super senses played a role, and Joyna felt something was staring here, and the hairs on her back were standing up.
Is this fear? Maybe.
Or, it may, it may be, it is a sign that something is going to happen.
A few seconds later, some turquoise glimmer appeared in the remains of the abandoned building.
What is that?
Joyna turned around alertly, and the little boy behind him broke free from the rope and drilled into the pile of debris behind the cab in fear.
"Uh uh uh, oh——"
A low and strange sound like a muffled thunder pulled her attention back, as if it was a hiccup from something.
And the sound actually appeared behind the truck, probably only a few hundred meters away from the truck. It was obviously caused by the turquoise light in the dilapidated building, or in other words, it was just that the two sides were echoing each other!
"Is there anything else in the wilderness? A sand bandit or a refugee? Or a wild beast wandering in the wilderness?"
Joyna's heart suddenly sank.
She kept guessing and shook her head.
This feeling is really strange. It turns out that the prisoners in the truck are talking about the real thing. There are even more unexpected threats and terrifying things in this world!
Joyna suddenly turned her head and asked the little boy behind her, "Is this voice... the devil you mentioned?"
In front of this woman who seemed calm but was actually equally nervous, a light of rationality seemed to flash in the little boy's eyes.
He quickly, hard, and nodded resolutely.
From his eyes, Joyna finally confirmed something.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. No matter what it is, it won't hurt you, I promise."
She didn't know why she said that, after all, she didn't even understand what the situation is now.
Perhaps, it was to establish a closer relationship with the boy, perhaps it was to eliminate the fear that was permeated, perhaps it was because of some special sense of mission and responsibility, perhaps it was just the child's eyes.
Anyway, Joyna felt she had to keep everyone safe.
"Be careful..." The little boy spoke again. Compared with the children of the same age, his voice was a little low, but it had an indescribable magnetic smell.
"Oh, it's the light...well, I get it."
Joyna finally understood what he meant at this moment. No matter what was outside, it must have attracted the beasts.
She still clearly remembered that the night before, when the convoy of these sand bandits stopped, she did not see any bonfires or light in the wilderness, probably that was the reason.
Joyna pulled out the trolley from her leggings, and the cold feeling spread throughout her body.
But she hesitated for a moment, put the gun back again, took out a half-meter-long scimitar from her waist, squeezed it tightly in her hand, and then quietly opened the car door, jumped out, and then gently closed the car door.
Her actions have been done quietly. Although she didn't know what she would see, she had a premonition that she had to confirm it with her own eyes.
Because, things in the dark have come to this side.
She slowly approached the ruins of the building on the hill, and looking around, she was still pitch black. Although her vision was several dozen times stronger than ordinary people due to genetic modification, she could distinguish the outline of objects at night, but her nerves were still very tight.
Because the turquoise green light she saw was hidden in the center of the ruins in front of her.
Behind a broken wall, Joyna held her breath and poked her head cautiously, her body suddenly shook!
Her mind had forgotten everything else - blood, horror, and fear. Only the images of tall black shadows were left in her mind, and they would linger in the time after this moment.
She saw three or four "people" standing upright among the building's wreckage like hills.
Their appearance and body are a horrifying mixture of humans and animals. There has never been anything similar in the world, and it should never exist!
They bent over and hunched their backs, and in addition to their long mane and some tattered human clothes, they were all giants. They probably should be two and a half meters tall when they stood upright.
The turquoise light emitted by their eyes.
Their heads are deformed, with strong jaws, and it seems that the strong teeth in their mouths can easily bite off trees. These things occasionally hit the ground like beasts, wandering in small areas, moving extremely slowly, like looking for food in ruins.
It's an incredible monster!
A breeze blew in front of him, and Joyna hurriedly covered her mouth and squatted down, fearing that the other party would immediately find herself.
This visual impact is so shocking!
Joyna didn't dare to show off her vigour and bent down and walked carefully. For some reason, she suddenly remembered the giant man in the sand bandit, and her whole body trembled, and a thought came to her mind - were these guys all mutated humans?
Thinking of this layer, her heart began to feel extremely nervous and her stomach began to twitch.
She didn't want to know the reason for the mutation, but she could think of it with her toes. If you want to change the body structure in a short time - only radiation can be so powerful.
After she had been away from the building ruins for a distance, she immediately accelerated and ran towards the truck.
