Returning from the abyss

Chapter 112 Ruin Town

The name of the ruined town is no longer known. As the nearest town to the refuge, it was evacuated early, leaving nothing of value.Because of this, there is no need to worry about causing any losses when fighting here.

However, when the van passed the archway outside the town, a "T"-shaped pillar wrapped with iron pipes caught Lu Ning's attention. A tightly wound corpse.

That was Pang Heng.

His face was pale, his eyes were bulging, his entire expression was distorted, his skin had shriveled, and the extremely cold air had turned him into an ice sculpture, and some red blood ice could still be seen under his dark blue lips, probably before death Because I bit my lip.

Lu Ning can confirm that he is dead without getting out of the car.

The traces of the battle here in the ruined town still remain, the black marks scorched by the flames remain on the buildings, and there are dirty snowballs mixed with mud everywhere.

"Already, it's used."

Xuan Zitong stretched out his hand and tugged at Lu Ning's sleeve, showing a pleading look.

"Let's go, you can't."

"You stay here."

Lu Ning did not turn off the flame, and her voice became much softer.

"I don't know how to pull out the key. Now turn the key to the bottom to start the car. The gears are automatic. The only things to remember are reverse, empty and forward. They correspond to front, middle and rear. It's easy to understand, right?"

The calmer her tone was, the more frightened Xuan Zitong became.

"The gas pedal and the brake are controlled by your feet. Even people who don't drive know that the gas pedal is on the right...you will know it after you try it."

"Lu Ning, don't go, I..."

"Don't go, it's the same as what we discussed before. Have you seen the vines on Pang Heng's body? We can't leave this time, we are old rivals."

Lu Ning slowly pulled out her sleeves, and after checking all the throwing objects, sabers, pistols, and protective gear, she opened the door and jumped out of the car.

Amnesia... Although it is tricky, it is not completely impossible to think of a way to deal with it.

Stepping on the ankle-deep snow, Lu Ning walked towards the center of the ruined town step by step.

Judging from the results of the attack before the amnesia, I will lose my memory after a period of time, which means that I can completely fight back during that time.To put it bluntly, the opponent just took the advantage of being able to take the initiative to attack every time.

Burning the trees is a reminder. If there is no accident, this evil claw looks like the plant, so it can probably control the plants to a certain extent, but even so, it is impossible to guarantee such a huge body if it wants to "sneak attack". .

Mo Lian killed a stone man who had shrunk and sneaked into the shelter with a collapsing bomb, proving that once their bodies were fatally injured, they would die immediately.Although the evil claws are different, they are still "creatures".

Lu Ning walked to a square, which was used by the town for group activities in the past. It covers an area of ​​about [-] square meters, and there is no shelter around it.It is very difficult to sneak attack in such an environment, but no matter where she appears from, Lu Ning can have a little time to deal with it.

As night fell, everything fell into silence.The lantern hanging from Lu Ning's waist became the only light in this world, small but bright.

The strange fragrance rose quietly and silently infiltrated the surrounding area. When Lu Ning smelled the fragrance, she jumped back immediately, and the two vines under her feet made a hole in the snow, and quickly retracted into the snow.

"The reaction was quick, it seems that I expected my sneak attack."

The sound of that evil claw soon echoed in the square.

"Can't you hide? It shouldn't be a problem for Evil Claw to crush me head-on, right?"

Lu Ning didn't know why the other party was hiding under such an obvious gap in strength.

"You almost killed one of my compatriots, and I am weaker than other compatriots, so why not prey safely?"

"I really dare to say it directly..."

"It doesn't matter if you say it, you will forget it anyway, you know, the fear of human beings stepping into the ignorance and the unknown time and time again is more evocative than their own flesh and blood."

Following the voice, the fragrance dissipated, and Lu Ning's eyes returned to the previous alert state.

She lowered her head and saw that snow had begun to accumulate at the location of her previous footprints, and she was more than half a meter away.

was attacked.

Lu Ning turned her head to look around, her wrist shook, she took a watch out of her sleeve, and glanced at the time on it.

"Thirteen to fourteen seconds..."

This is the approximate time when he lost his memory, and it is not precise, but it can also give Lu Ning an idea of ​​what he can do during this period of time.

"It's already attacked, I don't know what cover it used to do it. But it will definitely not use the same attack method after a miss, and that will always be the 'first' attack for me, The most effective ones can be found through exhaustive methods..."

Lu Ning kept awake by talking to herself, her fingers kept swinging back and forth on the holster and the grenade. She has gradually mastered the weakness of amnesia, that is, it is impossible to remove the traces left during this period. There is a camera recorder or something in it, and it is actually very simple to know what happened during the amnesia.

But she didn't, and she didn't think the other party would give her time to play it again.

The scent slowly emerged, Lu Ning dodged to the side this time, and at the same time took out a grenade and threw it to the side. Several vines rushed out from under the snow, and the raised snow blocked Lu Ning's sight. At the same time, she suddenly felt There was pain in the ankle, and the body involuntarily tilted, half kneeling on the ground.

Afterwards, those vines disturbed the surroundings and retracted into the snow.

Lu Ning half-kneeled on the ground, the pain in her ankle came suddenly, she didn't need to look to know that it was at least swollen.The surrounding snow was in chaos, and it was impossible to tell what happened just now.She lowered her head and pushed up her goggles, hiding her emotions.

At this time, a figure with a graceful posture like a woman stepped out from behind the low wall more than ten meters behind her.It's just that a large number of vines emerged from behind it, floating slowly like waves. These vines fell to the ground and penetrated into the snow, only a few above the head were special.

They're so short that they don't even look like vines, but rather plant stems.The thumb-sized flower buds are scattered on these stems one by one, which looks very beautiful.

Then, one of the buds bloomed.

It does not have the pistils that ordinary flowers have, but is empty.As the many flowers bloomed, the amnesiac fragrance was once again spread out.

Lu Ning didn't react at all this time. It should be said that her ankle injury also made her unable to dodge flexibly.

"You gave up resisting...you think I would think so?"

After the evil claw released the fragrance, it did not attack immediately, but carefully looked around.

"You finally showed up."

Lu Ning stood up slowly with her trembling legs. Now she was stressed on one foot, and her standing posture was obviously crooked, but she had already picked up another grenade in her hand.

"You still have seven explosives left on your body. Are you planning to use these to leave a mark? Just like the grenade just now?"

Human beings use marks to remember things is the ability deep in the blood, from counting knots to slate murals, because memory cannot be preserved forever by the brain, so using other methods to record has become the inevitable path for intelligent creatures.

But now, relying on the grenade in her hand, Lu Ning can also convey some simple messages by thinking about the meaning of the direction and distance of the landing point in advance.

"Has it been discovered?"

Lu Ning opened her mouth and bit off the pull ring, but she didn't look panicked.

"Twice... As long as you attack twice, I will know the secret of your ability. By then, your preemptive attack advantage will be gone. How about it? How do you deal with it?"

After finishing speaking, she threw the grenade in another direction, and there was an explosion sound, and a scorched snow pit appeared not far away. It is impossible for such conspicuous explosion traces to disappear within the short ten seconds that the fragrance lasted.

"You're different from a lot of people I've met, no, I should say—you."

The figure of Evil Claw slowly disappeared behind the low wall.

"Since this is the case, next time, I will kill you, as you wish, in a head-on way."

The scent dissipates.

The moment Lu Ning realized it, she immediately turned her head to look around, and immediately found a new explosion trace.

"The attack method is smell, and the distance is less than 20 meters...is it?"

In this way, the other party's secrets could no longer be kept, at least in terms of intelligence, Lu Ning barely pulled the two sides to the same starting line.

For the last time, she will find out where the enemy is and where the weak point is!
After a while, the fragrance of flowers hits!
A huge body nearly three meters high suddenly grew from behind the low wall. Although it still maintained the same body shape, a large number of vines were wrapped around its body as armor, leaving only a few long vines as means of attack.The Evil Claw, whose body has grown to this point, has regained its strength and defensive power. It easily kicked the low wall open, and then supported itself with vines and rushed towards Lu Ning!

"Your intuition is indeed accurate, but human beings rely far more on memory than you can imagine!"

The two vines swept down and hit the ground heavily, raising a large snow block, covering Lu Ning's sight.

"From forgetting to re-memorizing, there is a short interval. That is the limit of human reaction ability! It is also a limit that you can't surpass no matter how much you prepare in advance!"

The explosion of the grenade sounded from under the cover of the snow. Lu Ning took out the pistol and quickly aimed it at the front and emptied all the bullets. The green slurry of the plants splashed in the air, and the two attacking vines were all cut off. The body of the evil claw was not damaged at all.

In the blink of an eye, the Evil Claw has been within a distance of less than one meter from Lu Ning. The vines wrapped around its arm spiraled apart, revealing the brown arm inside and the serrated knife foot on the front of the arm.

Lu Ning's body was knocked out of balance by the strong wind brought by the charge of the evil claw. When it waved down, she could only raise her left arm and tilt her body slightly to resist.

Blood spurted from the arm in an instant, and the sacrifice of this half of the arm bought Lu Ning a moment, but even this moment was within the expectation of the evil claw.

"The response is good, but the time is up."
