Chapter 620: Genius is the legend of the future (please vote for this huge chapter)
Dim lights shone on the blood-stained corridor, and broken instruments and equipment were stacked into "hills" with mechanical firelight.
The sound of twisted and moving bodies echoed in the silent darkness.
It seemed like someone was approaching slowly along the dark night, and it seemed like a creature on all fours crawling slowly and hard on the ground.
The sharp nails scraped against the metal ground, making a sizzling, sharp sound.
Under this dim light, the sound sounded from far to near, like the sickle of death scraping the ground, getting closer and closer.
"What the hell."
The cat was leaning against the man behind a huge fallen machinery cabinet and spat, dragging his blood-stained left leg back from behind the machinery cabinet.
He raised the assault rifle in his hand, pulled out the magazine, and threw it aside.
Then his hand groped around his waist until he found a magazine in the deepest part.
"That's the last one. It's so quick to blanch."
He inserted the magazine into the rifle and pulled the bolt.
In the silent space, his words echoed mixed with the sound of gun bolts.
This echo was like another person existing in this dead silence, accompanying him.
He did not raise the gun immediately, but waited for the sharp scratching sound to get closer, and then stretched his body diagonally out of the edge of the mechanical cabinet. He raised the gun, pointed it behind him, and pulled the trigger.
Tongues of flame spit out from the muzzle, followed by a torrential rain of bullets pouring into the depths of the dark world.
After firing these rounds of bullets, the man did not look at the results behind him, but immediately withdrew and returned to the back of the cabinet.
In fact, he couldn't see what was happening behind him.
Those monsters were hidden in the shadows, and their specific locations could not be seen at all. It was easy to miss them with eyes. He could only rely on sound and intuition to locate them.
And when he pulled away, he clearly heard the muffled sound of the bullet entering his flesh.
The two closest sharp voices had disappeared, and the one closest to him was now quite a distance away.
He leaned forward and glanced at another 'bunker' made of old metal in the darkness ahead.
He was holding a gun and crawling on his knees, his arms constantly supporting each other alternately, dragging his injured legs and body forward quickly.
Suddenly, a terrifying grimace appeared in his field of vision, looking at him with a sharp and ferocious smile.
He paused and subconsciously raised his gun to shoot, but in the blink of an eye, the grimace disappeared.
"Damn it, it's just another idiot's hallucination."
He cursed under his breath and continued to move forward. After a while, he arrived at the new bunker.
He crawled in with his upper body first, and then dragged his injured leg behind the bunker.
"You bastard, grandpa is still alive."
He spat, glanced at the rifle in his hand, and then looked at the area ahead.
There is no new bunker ahead, the original dim lights have been completely extinguished, leaving only a deep darkness.
The man didn't know what was in the darkness, but thinking about it, it was probably something worse.
Severe pain came from the wound on his thigh, and the dizziness caused by long-term blood loss filled the man's mind.
The sharp sound sounded behind him again, bit by bit, from far to near.
"You bastards, are you kidding me?"
The man turned around, leaned out from behind the cover, pointed in the direction of the sound, and squeezed the trigger.
A thin muffled sound came again.
That was the sound of bullets hitting monsters.
The man turned around and stared into the deep darkness.
He pulled out the magazine and took a look. The bullets in the magazine were only enough for him to shoot one more time.
There was no suitable bunker ahead, and he could no longer climb forward.
He knew very well the habits of the monsters behind him.
Whenever he is exposed to the sight of those monsters, those monsters will speed up and rush towards him, swarming him.
So he had been using bunkers and light and shadow to cover his figure, moving from bunker to bunker, moving forward cautiously.
But now that there is no bunker in front of him, he has no way to cover his body. As he advances, he will be torn apart by the monsters that are coming up.
The sharp sounds scraping across the ground behind him slowly approached again.
At first, he would be inexplicably irritated when he heard this kind of sound, but now, he has gradually adapted to this kind of sound.
Some kind of fog seemed to spread in the void, and then there was the sound of gongs that gradually faded away.
There seemed to be some kind of shambling figures forming a long procession in the mist, slowly walking through it.
"This hallucination is just in time for my funeral."
From the moment he first entered this place, various strange scenes would occasionally flash in his field of vision, overlapping with the real world.
And now, it seems that as his life is gradually passing by, this kind of weird hallucinations are appearing more and more.
In fact, it's okay for this kind of weird hallucination to appear in the real world, and it will at most cause him some fear. But if it appears in this weird and weird area, it will seriously interfere with his cognition.
On several occasions, he turned his hallucinations into reality and consumed ammunition, or turned reality into hallucinations and was hit by monsters, causing several scratches.
Until now, he has not completely distinguished the difference between reality and fantasy, but this is no longer important.
He was going to die soon anyway.
"He, if he had known better, he wouldn't have come to join in the fun,"
He missed the millet porridge made by his mother.
But he didn't really regret it. Everyone who entered the ruins knew that they might die in the ruins.
He was also prepared to die.
It's a bit frustrating to die in such a place where no one knows, and no one knows.
He stuck out his head and poured out the bullets in the gun in one breath.
Then with the sound of bullets entering flesh, he threw the rifle in his hand to the ground and pulled out the short knife tied to his thigh. "You bastards, try whether your claws are sharp or I'm sharper."
He looked at the dark passage ahead.
Maybe he could just rush out and still have a chance of survival.
The monster at the front has been knocked down by him, and it will take time for the monsters at the back to catch up.
And judging from the fact that only one or two of this monster comes to the front at a time.
Maybe he could fight off the first two monsters that approached, and then jump into the dark area.
In complete darkness, these monsters may not be able to see him.
Maybe, can survive.
The hope of life gave him new support. He slowly stood up, endured the severe pain in his legs, and made a sprinting posture.
And at this moment, a black shadow suddenly fell from above his head.
It was a humanoid 'life' about the same height as a normal person. It had no skin, and its blood vessels and muscles were nakedly exposed. Thin metal wires were interspersed between the muscles and blood vessels.
It raised its head and stared at the man.
Where the eyes were originally, there were now only two bloody holes.
It has a gray-black helmet on its head.
The helmet fit tightly against its head, as if embedded in its skull.
"What the hell is this a hallucination?"
The man raised his short sword and slashed at the helmet on the monster's head.
After the previous battle, he had discovered that this mechanical helmet was the monster's real 'control center'.
The monster raised its hand, its fingers covered with hard metal claws.
scandium--
This sharp claw blocked the man's attack.
Not an illusion?!
The man was stunned. Wouldn't it take some time for the monster behind to catch up?
At this moment, a gray light suddenly flowed from the gray-black helmet on top of the monster's head.
This was a sight the man had never seen before.
He suddenly changed his moves, taking advantage of the moment when the light path lit up, the blade passed through the sharp claws, and cut off the monster's neck with one blow.
As the monster's head flew up, the man endured the severe pain in his legs and rolled forward, widening the distance between him and the monster.
At this time, his eyes happened to see the position just behind him.
Channels of cold gray light lit up densely in the area behind him.
One by one, the twisted 'figures' slowly stood up and stared at the man.
They were standing behind the bunker where the man had just hidden.
"You're really kidding me."
The man smiled bitterly and picked up the short knife in his hand.
These monsters have never been knocked down, and they don't need to scrape the ground with their claws to make sounds when walking. They just pretend to be like this and then 'play' with men.
And now, as the man approaches the dark area, this 'play' is finally over.
The head that had just been severed by the man rolled down to the feet of another monster, and then the monster picked up the head.
Countless gray rays of light shone in the darkness, and these monsters raised their metal claws and rushed towards the man.
"Come on, you bastards."
The man raised the dagger.
He no longer retreated, but rushed towards the monsters waving their claws.
His short knife collided with those sharp claws, and almost at the moment of the collision, the strong short knife was knocked away.
Several metal spikes flew past the side of the man's face. This was when the monster behind shot out the metal 'nails' on its claws.
At the same time, the sharp metal claws of the monster in front dug into the man's heart and head.
He's going to die.
The man watched all this.
In the gray space, the vast wilderness of the real world seemed to appear, and the low house called home appeared.
Then, these scenes dissipated like smoke in the morning.
And at this moment, a dazzling light burst out from the darkness behind the man.
The dazzling light shines like the sun, and the scorching power burns everything around it like a raging flame.
What is this? An illusion?
The man stared blankly at the scene in front of him, watching as the monster charging towards him was shattered by the powerful light, melted, and turned into a scorched lake of corpses, a mixture of metal and flesh.
This light shocked the entire group of monsters, but it did not alleviate the man's death situation much.
Several monsters have already arrived in front of him.
The man wanted to try his best to get out and buy time for himself, but he had no room for action.
And just when the sharp claw was about to pierce his heart, a pure white light, like a sharp blade cutting through the night, cut across the man's field of vision and across the body of the monster in front of the man.
These monsters were chopped in half, and their upper bodies were blown apart and flew into the sky.
The man stared blankly at the figure standing in front of him holding the bone sword, his eyes widened in shock,
"Minister Heao?"
Then, he looked at the blown limbs in the sky. These monsters were not dead, and the damage to their bodies caused almost no harm to them.
At this moment, these monsters were raising their hands, their metal claws aimed at He Ao.
So the man quickly shouted, "Be careful of their sneak attacks, their vital points are above their heads."
"Um."
He Ao gently threw up the bone sword in his hand, then jumped into the air.
Several metal spikes were shot out from the monster's claws, hitting the place where He Ao had just stood.
At this moment, He Ao, who jumped up, had already caught up with the bone sword that was thrown in the air, and then held the hilt of the sword.
At this moment, his body was very close to the monster he knocked into the air.
He raised the bone sword, and the white sword light traced the trajectory of the crescent moon in the air, cutting through the dark helmets one by one.
Finally, he put away his sword and dropped it to the ground.
Above his head, helmets exploded one after another in the sky, like fireworks in summer, exploding into brilliant colors.
The man behind He Ao looked at this scene with dull eyes.
The dangerous monster in his eyes was as fragile as a potato chip that could be easily crushed in the hands of the young man in front of him.
At this moment, the monsters standing in front of He Ao also 'saw' the scene just now.
They slowly retreated, their bodies gathered together, and gradually gathered towards a certain monster in the middle.
They were leaning against each other, and some even climbed onto the shoulders of another monster.
Slender metal threads protrude from the monsters, like needles and threads that sew flesh and blood, sewing the bodies of these monsters together, forming a huge giant body almost in the blink of an eye.
This giant's head is almost entirely composed of a gray-black helmet.
The terrifying pressure spread out.
The strength of this giant is not weaker than the monster with tentacles on its back that He Ao just met.
Heao stared at those gray-black helmets.
Looks like some kind of parasite.
Judging from the structure that He Ao just opened, these helmets should be purely mechanical.
Those 'monster' bodies look like the humans who were once in this spaceship. After being parasitized by the mechanical helmets, they underwent some kind of mutation and became what they are now.
Mechanical parasitism, controlling the flesh and blood body.
A wonderful way of parasitism.
The huge monster in front of us may be the unified 'body' of these mechanical parasites.
He Ao squinted his eyes slightly, staring at the thin silver threads used to sew flesh and blood, which were almost invisible under the dim light.
These thin wires are also obviously all metal.
And it's covered in the monster's entire body.
It's all metal.
He Ao reached out and touched the miracle wand on his waist.
The huge monster stared at He Ao. It did not attack He Ao directly, but took off a helmet from its body and handed it to He Ao.
The man standing behind He Ao watched this scene, and he could understand what this monster meant.
It wants Ho-o to put on the helmet, 'join' them, and accept its control.
It didn't give Heo any other choice.
The result of rejection is also obvious.
The man looked at He Ao's back nervously. The pressure this monster gave him was beyond his understanding. He didn't know whether the young minister could deal with such an enemy.
He looked at the dagger that was knocked away, maybe he could share some of the pressure with He Ao.
At this time, He Ao just looked down at the helmet in the monster's hand, and then at the bone sword in his hand.
He had just smashed those helmets with ease.
Then he shook his head in disgust, "The quality of your stuff is too poor."
Then he turned around and walked towards the man behind him, "Your name is Shu Gui?"
"Minister He, do you know me?"
Shu Gui was a little surprised for a moment, but then he immediately realized that now was not the time to talk about this. He looked at He Ao, and then at the terrifying monster behind He Ao, "Minister He, give your back to this guy like this
monster······"
"Did you say it?"
He Ao looked back at the monster that was getting angry. Although the monster couldn't understand what He Ao said, it seemed to understand He Ao's disgusted expression, and now its whole state was getting even crazier.
He Ao turned around and looked at Shu Gui,
"It's actually pretty good. It even gave me a gift just now. Although it's a bit poor, these monsters actually have good intentions. Just now, a generous monster gave me a memory chip, a plasma cannon, and some energy.
piece······"
Shu Gui:???
Behind He Ao, the terrifying monster had raised its claws and struck at He Ao.
"Of course, the process of receiving these gifts is not easy."
At this time, He Ao continued, "Sometimes there may be some minor accidents, such as..."
The terrifying giant hand has reached the top of He Ao's head, blocking all the light on He Ao's head.
"Now."
He Ao didn't look back, he just shrugged.
Thunder shines!
The shining electric light fell from the sky, carrying the vast natural power, breaking through the darkness, illuminating the entire space, and also illuminating the monster's huge body.
The power of thunder followed all the metal equipment and reached every corner of the monster's body.
Bang bang bang——
It was the sound of a gray-black helmet exploding, and blossoming flame flowers bloomed on top of the huge body.
It's like a grand closing fireworks show.
"Well," He Ao looked back at the collapsed monster, "but this time we probably won't be able to get the gift."
Thunder Shine is a C-level miracle among the Miracle Wands.
Sometimes, this special power often works wonders when dealing with special situations.
He Ao once showed this miracle in the main world.
Shu Gui stared at all this with his mouth open. He watched as the terrifying, seemingly invincible monster collapsed, shattered, and turned into exploding fireworks.
He could no longer use words to describe the shock at this moment. Thousands of words came to his lips, leaving only one sentence:
"Fuck!"
At this time, He Ao had already turned around and began to inspect the things left behind by the monster.
"Surprised?"
A soft laugh came from behind.
Shu Gui turned around and saw a gentle and quiet woman walking over carrying a cannon barrel that was larger than her.
She walked up to Shu Gui, smiled, stood the cannon barrel beside her, and took a breath, "You will get used to it in the future. Our Minister He is good at accomplishing the impossible."
"He still looks so young,"
Shu Gui sighed with emotion, "I never believed that someone could be such a genius before, but now I believe it."
"Geniuses are future legends,"
Zhang Yusi shook her head, "And He Department is now a legend."
At this time, He Ao came back holding something with a slightly black surface that looked like a memory chip. He looked at Shu Gui,
"What about those non-academy people who were with you before?"
