Newland City-State·Core Island
boom--
The rocket that pierced the night fell in the center of the square, and the huge explosive fireworks obscured the group of monsters gathered in the middle. (Due to caching reasons, please visit the browser directly.\nCOM website to watch the fastest chapter updates)
When the fireworks dissipated, under the charred and writhing flesh, the two monsters at the core shook off the corpses of their companions and stood up unsteadily.
The next second, a figure with a ring-shaped sword appeared on the square in the blink of an eye. He swung the sword and cut the dizzy monster approaching him into two.
At this moment, another monster woke up completely, and a tentacle instantly hit the figure.
The figure did not dodge, but used its back to resist the attack, raised the knife forward, and cut off the second monster directly.
Then he waited for a moment, and after making sure there were no other monsters in the center, he breathed a sigh of relief and inserted the big knife into the ground.
Then he looked back at the library hiding behind him, looking nervously and worriedly at the survivors here.
At this time, a young man immediately ran over and walked up to the figure, "Boss!"
"Has everything been resolved?"
Before the young man could speak, the figure asked quickly and directly.
"Everything is cleaned up, no monsters escaped."
The young man nodded quickly.
Immediately afterwards, a man wearing gendarmerie uniform also ran over. He glanced at the figure and said with some respect, "Mr. Chen Lin, thank you..."
"It's okay," Chen Lin waved his hand, glanced at the charred monster corpses around him, and asked quickly, "What wave is this here?"
"If you don't count the scattered monsters, but only the monster groups gathered together, it should be the third wave of monster groups,"
The man replied quickly.
At this time, the young man on the other side glanced at the figure, then at the monster that had just been cut off by the figure, and interjected with some worry,
"Boss, these monsters are getting stronger and stronger. Now there are monsters with weak D-level strength. As we get to the back, thermal weapons may not be able to kill them, and our ammunition is almost exhausted."
"Ok, I know."
Chen Lin sighed softly and looked at another place not far from the survivors, where there were several people who were forced into a corner by the gendarmerie with guns.
Most of them were injured, looking fiercely at the military police in front of them, confronting the military police with ferocious faces, and some faint curses could even be heard.
"Mr. Chen Lin, how are you going to deal with these...'monster followers'?"
The gendarmerie man noticed that Chen Lin was looking at those people and asked in a low voice.
Chen Lin looked at those people.
These are the people who have accepted the "bewitchment" before and kept knocking on the door or even forcing the door open to other people's homes.
I don’t know if there is any special identification method between those monsters. These people will not be attacked by monsters and can even control the movement of monsters to a certain extent.
These groups of monsters gathered now were brought together by these people.
Because too many doors were destroyed before, the number of monsters on the street exceeded the control limit of Moonlight and the Gendarmerie.
And it is too dangerous for a large number of survivors to roam the streets.
Therefore, Moonlight and the Military Police tried their best to gather survivors from various regions and place them in several large facilities.
Then these bewitched 'monster followers' gathered the monsters on the streets and attacked those gathering places.
These guys are no longer mentally normal. They have a persistent affinity for those monsters, but are extremely hostile to humans.
Moreover, the group of these people is also growing. Because these people will not be attacked by monsters, new people are constantly joining them, persecuting and killing ordinary people, and even competing with each other to become the most "loyal" one.
"They are of no use to us, you can just follow the moonlight process."
Chen Lin glanced at those people and waved his hand, "Then let's go to the next place first."
'Followers' who can control and guide monsters are the most extreme of all 'followers'.
Even if they themselves have not been completely brainwashed by the twisted temptation, they are still the group that kills the most.
These lunatics have the blood of innocent people on their hands. They have not really lost their minds. They clearly know what they are doing, but they no longer regard ordinary people's lives as life.
Moreover, Chen Lin had tried to ask before. In fact, these people didn't know anything about the inside story. They were just acting according to the bewitched instructions, so they couldn't get any information.
"Then we will follow the normal procedure."
The gendarmerie man nodded slightly, watched Chen Lin leave, and made a gesture to the other side.
Another group of wounded military policemen with guns quickly surrounded them, pointing their dark guns at the 'followers'.
When they saw these muzzles, the few 'followers' who were forced into the corner looked up at Chen Lin who was leaving, and then at the corpses of the monsters lying on the ground, and realized that the situation was over.
The leader of them looked at the gendarmerie and shouted loudly, "Do it, we will gain eternal life in death!"
!”
But one of these men became unusually quiet. He looked at the cold-faced military police and suddenly rushed out, knelt on the ground and roared,
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I was forced! I surrender! It's the devil, the devil is bewitching me! I didn't mean to bring monsters to attack you! Give me a chance! Give me a chance!"
"You're not completely brainwashed?"
The leader of the military police was a man with a broken arm with layers of blood on his clothes and a gauze soaked in blood on his shoulders. He looked at this man and asked in a low voice.
"Yes! I have not been brainwashed, I am a normal person!"
The man replied immediately.
"In other words, everything you did was all based on your own decisions, including attacking us with monsters? Killing people, opening other people's doors, and putting innocent people in danger?"
The leader continued to ask.
"yes!"
The man replied subconsciously, and then he immediately shook his head, "No, I didn't, I was bewitched... give me a chance!"
He did not notice that the eyes of the 'companions' behind him had completely changed when they looked at him, and their crazy eyes were filled with angry flames.
"Look up and look at me,"
The military police leader shouted.
The man raised his head blankly and looked at the cold face of the military police leader.
"You opened the door to my house,"
The military police leader looked at the man calmly and held the pistol in his hand. "My wife was at home at that time. She begged you hard not to open the door. Have you ever given us a chance?"
Hearing this sentence, the man was stunned. He never thought that he would meet an 'acquaintance' here.
"Damn it, if I can't live well, you can't live either."
He directly pulled out a small knife from his waist and stabbed the nearest military police leader to him.
boom--
With a crisp gunshot, his body fell backward.
The leader's marksmanship was not accurate and his life was not taken away, but someone pulled him from behind.
Those equally crazy 'companions' grabbed the 'unholy betrayer'. They swarmed up and tore off his flesh and blood in the most brutal way, biting his blood vessels. With the blood spurting out like a spring, the beast
A general roar echoed in the silent corner.
Fierce and cold gunfire rang out in the darkness.
The whole world fell silent.
"Boss,"
A military policeman put down his firearm and whispered to the leader, "My condolences."
"Um?"
The one-armed leader gave him a confused look.
"Your wife..."
The military policeman said softly.
He remembered that the leader said that the villain opened the door of the leader's house.
"She is jumping around in the library."
The leader smiled, took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth.
"That bastard who opened the door didn't open the passage to the monster space?"
The military policeman was a little surprised.
"opened."
The team leader paused and replied in a low voice.
"Then your wife..."
Now it was the gendarme's turn to be confused.
"perhaps,"
The leader paused. He stared at the fixed night sky above his head. The monster that was about to bite his wife's throat flashed in his mind, and the 'phantom' that split the monster into two and was almost invisible to the naked eye.
"There really are gods in this world."
At that time, there was a whole street across from his 'home'. He had no weapons in his hands and could only run towards the desperate end. He had never expected the existence of gods in this world like at that moment.
Then the gods really answered his prayers.
The military policeman didn't quite understand why his boss suddenly expressed such emotion, so he could only nod lightly, "It's okay."
Then he looked at the pile of blood and sighed softly, "This guy probably didn't expect to meet you, the boss, as his victim until his death. It was such a coincidence."
"This is no coincidence,"
The leader lowered his head and glanced around at the few military policemen who were holding guns tightly and still staring at the broken flesh and blood. "It is a coincidence for a person to meet another person in the crowd, but it is not a coincidence to meet another group of people."
It's a coincidence that if I didn't come forward, someone else would come forward."
The young military policeman nodded as if he understood, then he looked at the charred monster flesh and blood on the square in front of the library, paused, and asked in a calm voice, "Boss, it's been so dark this day, can we really
Will you live to see the sun tomorrow? Is the world going to be destroyed?"
"maybe,"
The leader took off the cigarette butt and put it out on the wall, "Maybe there really are gods in this world who are willing to give us and this world a chance."
······
Sitting in the back seat of a moving car, Chen Lin glanced at the empty streets around him.
He currently serves as the fire captain. Once a powerful group of monsters appears somewhere, he will go over and eliminate those monsters before heading to the next location.
He didn't know how long he had been working at such high intensity, but his physical fatigue told him that he might not be able to sustain it for much longer.
The good news is that although the monsters that appear now are getting stronger and stronger, and even D-class monsters have appeared, they are still within the processing limits of the 'temporary alliance' of Moonlight and the Research Institute.
Although the pressure was great, they pulled up the defense line and the casualties were kept within a small range.
The bad news is that the enemies they have faced so far are only some ordinary villains who were bewitched, and some monsters.
But that bewitching voice cannot only bewitch ordinary people.
In fact, many extraordinary people from the institute have responded to him, with strange thoughts appearing in their minds.
At present, since the extraordinary beings in the temporary alliance are all persistent extraordinary beings, there has been no defection, and some more dangerous situations can be barely controlled.
But Newland City State has more than just official supernatural beings. In addition to the remnants of the Chaos Church, this city also has another supernatural organization "Dawn" hidden in the dark.
The intelligence from the institute and Moonlight clearly shows that the Newland City State is within the sphere of influence of Liming’s ‘deputy leader’ and is an important stronghold.
Although no one knows how many people Liming has arranged here, everyone knows that a large and relaxed city-state like Newland City-State is the most suitable for Liming's extraordinary beings to hide.
There are probably some D-level or even C-level ones among them.
Furthermore, Liming, the 'deputy leader', never looks at backgrounds when recruiting people, and most of his subordinates are heinous extraordinary beings.
These villains are the easiest to be deceived. Even if they are not deceived, they will take to the streets to cause trouble.
And this is what Chen Lin is most worried about right now.
Now the manpower of the Institute and Moonlight has reached its limit. If anything exceeds the limit, even if it is just an ordinary D-class transcendent, mixed with a group of monsters, their defense lines will be broken through immediately.
Immediately afterwards, it collapsed like an avalanche.
More and more people will join the monster camp out of despair, and killings will fill every corner of the city.
If we look at it purely from a comparison of strength, they have actually lost.
At this moment, Chen Lin no longer fantasizes about what He Ao, Feiya, or even Hao Yi will do here.
Just one B grade and one or two C grade can't change anything at all.
This city and even this world have entered a countdown to destruction, but they, ignorant mantises, are trying to block the wheel of history.
But the good news is that so far, Chen Lin has not seen a Dawn Transcendent appearing on the battlefield.
These bed bugs that should have been hiding in the corners of the city seemed to have completely disappeared at this moment and did not come out to cause trouble.
Even if they are planning something in private, it's time to come out now.
Chen Lin stared at the scenery outside the window and suddenly smiled bitterly,
It can't be that there is a powerful guardian hidden in this city, who has solved all the unstable factors in secret as much as possible, and worked hard to maintain the weak 'balance' of this city.
He shook his head and sighed softly,
In fact, when he was thinking about this, some thoughts would arise involuntarily in his mind.
'Rather than struggling to the death, it is better to accept the fate of destruction, join in, and maybe gain twisted power and life like those monsters.'
These thoughts clung to his mind like gangrene, and whenever he started to think, they would keep popping up.
So he actually understands those subordinates who are influenced by the bewitchment, because he himself is affected by those bewitching voices all the time.
He knew very well that this was the temptation from the person behind the scenes, but at this moment, he didn't know where the way forward was.
He tried hard to suppress these confusing sounds. At the same time, he suddenly turned his head and looked at an alley at the end of the street.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that in the deepest part of the alley, a dangerous murderous intention flashed for a moment.
······
At the same time, in the deepest part of the alleyway where Chen Lin was watching, He Ao pulled out the Shadowless Sword and glanced at the D-class extraordinary person on the ground and the corpse of the D-class monster side by side with the extraordinary person.
They had just crawled here and had been lying in wait for a long time.
Letting the Shadowless Sword float behind him, He Ao stood in the darkness and looked up at the place where Chen Lin's vehicle disappeared.
There is still a little bit left, and there is still one key clue missing.
He took a few steps back and disappeared into the darkness.
······
"Boss, what's going on?"
The young man driving the car seemed to notice something was wrong with Chen Lin. He glanced at the rearview mirror in confusion and asked in a low voice.
"fine,"
Chen Lin stood up suddenly, and the chaotic thoughts in his mind were swept away.
They haven't lost yet!
We can’t just admit defeat here!
He picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the button, "Kodo, are you there?"
"exist."
A cold, deep voice came from the intercom.
Behind the sound, there seemed to be some kind of roaring helicopter propeller.
