Chapter 5: Prey and Hunters
turned on the TV, Lin Xi found that some TV stations still have signals, but each channel is played similarly.
The general content is that the monster comes suddenly, everyone doesn't need to panic, hide at home, close the door, don't go out, the army will organize forces, destroy the monster, and return everyone to a peaceful and safe life.
In addition, if someone takes advantage of the chaos to commit a crime, the army and police will immediately shoot and kill them when they see it!
In fact, these are some calming scenes, monsters have appeared in various parts of the world, how can the army have such a great ability to exterminate all monsters?
The end times have come, and the military is indeed resisting monsters, the strongest force, and the evolutionaries can't compare.
But it is undoubtedly naΓ―ve to pin all hopes on the army.
How many people can the army protect?
Moreover, it is impossible for the military and the police to maintain order in the streets full of monsters, and the killing of the perpetrators is only a feeble threat - it is to be expected that in the coming days, society will definitely become chaotic, or even completely collapse.
It is worth noting that the "evolutionary" was mentioned on TV, calling on the evolutionary to take the initiative to contact the local government and military.
There are certain advantages to getting in touch with official forces, after all, it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, but there are also disadvantages, and there is even a risk of becoming a guinea pig and being pushed onto the experimental table, or a person is at ease and free.
Physically and mentally exhausted, turn off the TV and go to sleep.
Soon after closing his eyes, Lin Xi began to dream, in the dream, he was in a ruined city, full of corpses, mostly young men with weapons, mixed with women, old people, and children.
All the corpses had all kinds of terrifying expressions on their faces, frightened, desperate, and empty...... These faces, with different expressions, suddenly detached from the corpse, and one by one, the skins flew into the air and gathered, finally forming a huge, distorted, weeping face.
Lin Xi woke up suddenly.
I only felt wet and cold all over my body, and I didn't know it, I was in a cold sweat.
"Ruins...... The future of the city? β
This strange dream made people feel very uncomfortable, Lin Xi looked at his watch, it was only 9 o'clock in the evening, and it was still early the next day.
As he was lying on the bed, he suddenly heard a panicked shout and a chaotic movement outside. Frowning, he walked to the window and looked out, there was actually a monster and a giant on the road in the community!
The giant was tracking down a fat man, and not far away, there was a bejeweled, equally fat woman in pajamas, who let out a piercing howl and cursed as she fled:
"You dead ghost, fooling around outside until now, let the old lady open the door for you, and lead a monster, you die alone, don't pull the old lady together, you ...... who kills a thousand knives"
The street lights of the community illuminated all this, a giant entered, which constituted a fatal danger of death to all residents, and what was even more terrifying was that the gate of the community was opened, and new giants would rush in at any time!
I don't know how many people were in the house, cursing the couple.
After all, the man was too fat, he was out of breath after only running a few dozen meters, his legs were weak and he knelt on the ground, he supported his hands and tried his best to get up, and the giant had already chased after him.
"Don't, don't......"
Seeing the giant's head reaching out to him, the mouth of which was large enough to swallow a cow opened, revealing the large, yellowed fangs of the door, and the man's throat let out a hoarse and desperate scream, and a stench came from under the buttocks, and he was frightened and incontinent.
The teeth were gritted and the man was gnawed into two pieces!
The black and red internal organs and yellow intestines flowed from the broken abdominal cavity to the ground, spilling everywhere.
"Ah......h
The bejeweled fat woman rolled her eyes and passed out.
Lin Xi immediately lifted the dark sword, opened the window, and jumped outside, the giants in the community must be killed, at least to ensure that this is a safe place for people to rest, and in addition, the gate of the community must also be closed.
It's time to put weapons to the test!
Taking advantage of the night, Lin Ximao bent down and walked in the direction of the giant, and seeing that the monster was concentrating on chewing the body of the fat man, he inserted the dark sword into his belt and took out the bloodthirsty flesh hook from the item space of the mobile phone.
Grabbing the pitch-black chain coiled in a circle with his left hand, and holding it with his right hand under the blood-red hook and the place where the chains connect, Lin Xi took a breath, mustered up his strength, and threw his right hand forward violently, throwing the blood-colored giant hook in the direction of the giant.
"Boom la la ......"
With the sound of the friction of the lock ring, the giant hook pulled out a dark red under the light of the street lamp, flew eight or nine meters away, and then ...... Falls at the feet of giants.
Lin Xi's forehead instantly broke out with sweat!
Although he has enough strength to throw a bloodthirsty flesh hook, he is not skilled after all, and it seems that it is not so easy to hook a target with a hook like the butcher in the game.
Just as he was about to pull the chain, pull the hook back, and throw it again, a large, powerful hand grabbed the meat hook.
"Not good!"
There was a huge force from the chains, and they were actually going to drag him over!
The legs were exerted, the center of gravity sank, Lin Xi's calves suddenly fell into the dirt floor, his arms pulled violently, the heavy thick chains, suddenly stretched straight, and the lock ring even made a "squeak, squeak", like a steel wire, making a tooth-sore sound.
The sound was loud in the silent night.
He and the giant grabbed the chains one by one, and began a tug-of-war of power!
In the community, some residents who observed the situation outside through the windows saw such a scene, and their eyes showed a dull and unbelievable light.
"He's wrestling with giants?"
"Who's that?"
"I don't know, I can't see my face clearly by the street lights, and I look like a child."
"Can a kid tug of war with a monster? Just kidding! β
"Could it be...... Is he the one mentioned on TV, an evolutionary with great strength? β
"We have evolvers in our community!"
"Great!"
Everyone is talking about it, and there is a "strong man" in the community, a strong man who can fight against giants, which undoubtedly makes everyone living here feel excited.
Lin Xi didn't know what others were saying, even if he knew, he wouldn't care - now he was agitating all his strength to fight against the giant, but he was still pulled over little by little - he had to admit that with strength alone, he was indeed not the opponent of the giant.
With a roar, he pulled desperately, and the chain was pulled with explosive force, and he moved towards him a few points, and the next second, he let go of his hands.
Like a black giant python, flipping its body, the chain rebounded and threw it on the giant, the huge impact force, the skin at the hit point was broken, the tail of the chain, and even hit the eyeball, which was pumped and exploded, and the pupils squirted out!
The balance of power vanished, and the giant, whose center of gravity was uncontrolled, fell backwards to the ground, stirring up a lot of dirt and dust.
Lin Xi's figure, like a gust of wind, broke into this piece of smoke and dust, his right hand held the hilt of the sword, and stepped to the head of the fallen giant in a few big steps, his left hand lifted his ear, raised the head slightly, and the dark sword slashed out and slashed towards the back of the neck.
It is worthy of a weapon that costs most of the wealth to exchange, cutting through the rough flesh of the giant, without hindrance, just like cutting butter with a hot dinner knife!
Cut through the skin, penetrate deep into the muscles, cut through the thick muscle fibers, and the clear vibration sensation is transmitted along the wrist.
"It's 100 o'clock."
The corpse of the 9-meter-tall giant that died turned into a point of light and dissipated.
"Dead! The monster has been killed! β
"So handsome!"
At this moment, there were cries of surprise in many houses.
Lin Xi gasped, the tug-of-war with the giant just now was too violent, and his temples were beating "suddenly". However, he understood that now was not the time to rest, so he put the bloody meat hook into the item space and ran quickly towards the gate of the community.
Fortunately, no other giant managed to close the iron gate.
Witnessing this scene, the residents of the community finally let go of their hearts one by one.
"Hero ......"
In fact, the walls and iron gates of the community can only block ordinary giants, and if there are strange species, beast giants, and special giants, it is impossible to stop them - the super-large giants that appear in the school can even knock down the twelve-story teaching building at once!
The inhabitants don't think of this, there are walls and iron gates, as if they are umbrellas, separating them from the streets where monsters roam outside, creating a sense of security.
Lin Xi, who showed great strength and closed the door of the community, naturally became a hero in everyone's hearts.
When I got home quietly, the first thing I did was to take a shower - although Lin Xi didn't have a habit of cleanliness, every time he fought, he was covered in dust and was always uncomfortable.
The next day, the sun rose.
The sun was shining, the light became brighter, and people were much bolder, and some residents of the community went to check the place where Lin Xi and the giant fought last night, and the giant's body disappeared, but when the two wrestled, the traces left on the turf were still there.
"Awesome!"
"It's not just powerful, it's just perverted!"
"Evolutionary...... What does it take to become an evolutionary? Why didn't I have such a good life......"
Looking at the ravines on the ground, everyone sighed again and again, the fat woman who passed out yesterday and escaped with her life was also mixed in, and the spit splashed "quack", and there was no grief for her dead husband at all.
"Who is that person, I can't see it clearly at night, let's go find it, thank you, thank you, and have a good relationship with the evolutionary, it's good for the big guys." An old man said.
"You have to ask him how he became an evolutionary and share his experience! Maybe we'll be evolutionaries too! β
"That's right!"
The fat woman's proposal immediately aroused everyone's approval, and the group immediately took action, knocking on the door and asking.
Lin Xi lived on the second floor, and had just woken up from sleep at this time, and was washing his face, when he heard a knock on the door outside.
Through the cat's eye, he found that there were residents of more than a dozen communities outside, so he opened the door.
"Child, do you live alone?" An old man with a kind face, kind and inquiring.
"Yes."
"Did you hear anything yesterday?"
Lin Xi shook his head: "Yesterday I was watching TV, there was a monster outside, I was a little scared, I hid under the covers, and I slept before it was dark, are you okay?" β
"No, that's it, yesterday ......"
As the old man was talking, the fat woman next to him interjected: "Old Xu, what are you talking so much nonsense, how can this kid with fine skin and tender flesh, small arms and legs, be the strong man who killed the giant last night?" Don't waste time, there are still many to ask, find out quickly, and ask for information quickly. β
"Hehe, don't bother."
The group turned their heads and went to knock on the neighbor's door again.
Closing the door, Lin Xi's face became indifferent, he didn't want to expose his identity, what thoughts would he bring to these people, it would be too troublesome, and in this world, he was not sure of self-preservation, what qualifications did he have to protect others?
Grab some food and get the bloody meat hook, dark sword, hard leather armor, and oak shield ready.
It's hunting time.
Giants are prey, and I am the hunter!
