Chapter 293 The attacking monster! (Second update)
Outside the gate of Xingfu Primary School.
Teresa quietly approached Higashinohara, who was standing there as if waiting for something. After hesitating for a moment, she couldn't help but walk up. She subconsciously lifted the ends of her hair next to her sea-blue peacock feather mask and chuckled.
Said, "Thank you so much just now."
She had just been caught in the [Death Barrier] of Captain Rhodes of the Salamander Pirates. If Higashinohara's domain hadn't suppressed the [Death Barrier] in time, she might have been in trouble now.
"It's just convenient." Higashinohara nodded.
Teresa was choked by such a "straight man" answer. She didn't think of how to continue the topic for a while. In the end, she was a little discouraged and stopped trying to get closer. She asked straight to the point, "By the way, what you just said
What does an attack mean? How long do we have to wait here."
They were attacked by pirates when they woke up early in the morning. Now that the pirates were defeated and fled, they were forced to stand still. This was a bit difficult for Teresa, who always paid attention to maintenance.
Higashinohara did not turn his head to look at her. The pupils of the white-faced and fanged Yaksha mask were filled with the radiant color of the lonely night, spinning slowly and strangely like a pool of water.
Nine Eyes and Six Paths. The first eye is opened!
After a moment, Higashinohara, holding the sword issued by the Third Investigation Team in his hand and looking into the distance, lowered his gaze slightly and said softly, "Almost."
"What's so fast?"
Teresa asked subconsciously.
The next moment, as a hunter, she suddenly became alert and suddenly turned her head to look in the direction in which they had crossed the border gate.
Or to be precise, it is the direction of the radio tower that stands like a steel giant.
A rustling sound, like a beast in the forest crawling across the jungle grass, reached their ears along the breeze passing through the desolate city streets.
But there is no forest here.
At best, it's just an abandoned steel jungle.
How can there be beasts?
At this moment, Theresa and the other confused Jaegers nearby also had subtle changes in their expressions, and their eyes were already staring in the direction they came from.
Suddenly, the rustling sound in the wind disappeared.
However, the eyes of everyone in the hunting group suddenly shrank, and their hearts seemed to skip a beat!
At this time, what appeared in their field of vision was a completely bizarre world, with countless black shadows appearing like a forest on the criss-crossing streets under the shadow of tall buildings covered with green moss.
Those densely packed figures of men, women, and children of all shapes and sizes, wearing tattered clothes that were almost completely weathered, were staggering forward. Without exception, all their eyes were empty and lifeless. There was a kind of desolate silence when they walked, which made people feel terrified in their hearts.
Feeling of oppression.
"What the hell are those?"
Teresa subconsciously took a step back, and the other Jaegers around her also took a breath of cold air, with very incredible expressions on their faces.
Higashinohara didn't laugh at it.
These seven-star hunters of [Dawn Scarlet], no matter how outstanding and elite they are, no matter how mentally prepared they were before coming.
But whoever sees this scene for the first time will be frightened!
At the same time, everyone with dry throats also found it hard to imagine and believe that if those ghosts were human beings, how could human beings become like that?
"These are the strange demons that Team Leader Kimura talks about." Higashinohara said calmly.
The gentleman Allenda, who had been standing aside when he saw Teresa and Higashinohara approaching, suddenly forgot to hide himself and subconsciously asked, "What are these ghosts doing here?"
"It won't be a treat for breakfast anyway."
Perhaps because of an experience he had, Higashinohara made a casual joke.
Immediately, he took a deep breath, grasped the Third Investigation Group's saber in his hand, and turned the side of the blade.
"Get ready to fight." He said softly in the communication voice of the Jaeger team.
However, when everyone in the Jaeger team looked at the dense crowd in the steel city, they felt their scalps were numb and had no fighting spirit in their hearts. After hearing Higashinohara's words, they only felt cold in their hearts.
The strength of these living dead monsters is no match for those with absolute ability.
But if the ants kill the elephant, who can escape if they are trapped in a tight siege?
Moreover, looking at the state of these ghosts in front of them, it is not possible to intimidate them by ruthlessly killing a few outnumbered enemies. It is estimated that they don't even know what pain is.
But if you don't fight
In such a completely unfamiliar world, all kinds of dangers lurk.
run?
Where can they run to?
Just when everyone's expressions suddenly changed and they were feeling uneasy, the voice of deputy captain Yoshizu Ichiro suddenly came from the communication voice of the Jaeger team.
"Withdraw! Don't engage in fighting! Pack your luggage and supplies and retreat eastward along the river immediately!" After finishing speaking, Yoshizu Ichiro took a deep breath and added in a serious tone, "This is the order of Team Leader Kimura."
After hearing the words of Vice Captain Yoshizu Ichiro, many of the Jaegers who looked at the scene in front of them, their scalps full and their hearts almost lifted to their throats, breathed a long sigh of relief.
No one is stupid.
Kimura Hakutaku, as the initiator of this expedition and their sponsor, judging from his various behaviors after entering this world, it is obvious that he has a far better understanding of this dead and desolate hell world than they do.
Since the other party gave the order to retreat, it was obvious that they were well prepared.
For a moment, everyone in the hunting team turned around and retreated into the camp. They quickly started to pack their luggage and materials in the temporary camp and prepare to evacuate.
Teresa and Allenda also turned around subconsciously, but out of the corner of their eyes, they noticed that Higashinohara was still standing motionless with the knife in his hand, staring at the dense dark things spreading from the shadows under the tall buildings in the distance.
The Yaksha mask obscured the expression on his face.
Teresa hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but turned back and said, "Shiroyasha-kun. Team Leader Kimura has given the order to retreat. Let's go."
Higashinohara, who had his back to them, nodded silently and then slowly sheathed the sword.
Just when I turn around,
Theresa and the gentleman Ellenda clearly heard a sigh in the air.
“What a pity”
What a pity?
The two of them were suddenly startled, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but twitch slightly, and their eyes drifted towards Higashinohara.
this guy
Is he a fighting maniac?
at the same time,
Next to the Pearl Tower on the bank of the Pujiang River.
A tall man wearing a purple yukata robe painted with hell mandala flowers and dark golden butterflies stood on the top rooftop of a tall building.
The metal cigarette pole in his hand gently tapped the rusty rooftop handrail in front of him, making a clanking sound, and he looked at the shocking scene under the wind and sand not far away.
"It's really spectacular."
A squeak!
The door from the rooftop behind was opened.
The strength of the visitor seemed to be unusual for ordinary people. With just a slight push, the broken and rusted iron door fell down under the weight.
What appeared at the door was a man with short chestnut hair, wearing a fisherman's hat and sunglasses and walked up.
Tokugawa Ritora walked up to Sakamoto, glanced at Yuya Yuya, who was watching the scene on the street not far downstairs, shook his head and said:
"You have your reasons for coming here, but why do you have to follow me here?"
"Don't you want to see with your own eyes what this country would be like without you?"
Under the messy and flowing long hair, Sakamoto said with half-open eyes and a half-smile, "The guy who succeeded you as the third investigation team is in this world now. Aren't you curious about what he wants to do?
What?"
Sakamoto's long voice echoed in the wind and sand on the rooftop of the high-rise building, but the air suddenly became quiet.
Tokugawa Ritora's majestic and resolute face suddenly showed a somewhat complicated look.
Please give me a ticket at the beginning of the month~
