Returning from the abyss

Chapter 596 Brilliant Sacrifice
There is a strong aroma of chili peppers in the air, and a hot pot is tumbling in front of you, but the vegetables and meat used for cooking are slightly different from what you usually see.

Ana took a deep breath in satisfaction, she was indeed a bit addicted to spicy food, and if the sugar in her pocket was not regarded as sugar but concentrated dishes, the taste was actually not bad.

However, Lu Ning really couldn't accept the spiciness, and after a few bites, she began to use light side dishes to relieve the spicy feeling in her mouth, but Yan Rong and Ana ate with enthusiasm.Seeing that the two of them couldn't stop talking, Lu Ning turned her head and looked at the small shop that was operating without a license.

The store is not big, there are only six tables inside, and they are all square tables that can only seat six people.The owner's surname is Deng, and he is quite old in appearance, but in the city, even if he has no money at this age, he must come out to make a living. A few people who are also in their 60s and [-]s are here to help, and it is true that they cannot take care of more customers. .

At present, only one table is still vacant, and the other tables are occupied by several office workers; some people who are dressed similarly to the gangsters I saw before; four students; and three small group members with weapons on their backs.Red soup old pot has a good reputation around here, at least what Lu Ning eats is normal.

But this night unexpectedly developed into such a situation... Thinking back to today, I dealt with the school incident from morning to noon, started wandering in the street in the afternoon, and encountered the incident of the steel heart and iron seal, and came here again at night.

"Ana, what is the frequency of those major events that will happen in the outer city? For example, what happened to us today, and there are similar things?"

"If it doesn't seem to be low overall, after all, the nobles' rewards have never been cut off. If nothing happens, we can't live on these." Ana swallowed what was in her mouth, and quickly replied, "Even busy Sometimes we will go round and round, and we have dealt with five incidents in two days. But generally speaking, the impact of these incidents is not that great. At most, a few people will be killed or a building will be bombed. The incident on campus today It’s pretty small.”

"With such a high frequency, people in the outer city can still go to work with peace of mind?" Yan Rong also said in a hurry.

"I always feel that those things are very far away. There was an incident before, and people a block away could use it as a joke, and it didn't take it seriously at all." Ana put a plate of meat Pour it into the pot, "Lan Tu told me that several people in Mercury Trigger are actually survivors, including him, Dorothy, and Dan Sheng. Maybe their feelings will be deeper."

"Survivor?" Lu Ning repeated in a low voice.This is not surprising, it is normal to seek change after encountering a major change in life, and those events that can be rewarded, no matter how big or small, must have a deep impact on the parties involved.

Thinking about these things, she glanced outside the door, but felt that there seemed to be something strange outside.

The pungent smell in the air was mixed with a sense of anxiety, Lu Ning frowned, raised her hand to push the electronic eyeball up, in the digital vision, the outside environment has already appeared a very subtle high-synchronization state, This reaction is not normal.

Lu Ning reached out and grabbed her own knives, and her action also stopped the two people who were eating happily.

"Why... what happened?" Uncle Deng, who was pushing some vegetables by with a cart, stopped when he saw the movements of the three of them, and looked towards the door.

At the same time, the three men with weapons on their backs were also aware of the problem. They also stopped what they were holding, and one of them stood up and said, "Don't move, I'll check the situation."

"Robei, the situation is unusual, don't take risks." Another man with braids on his head folded his arms, "Chai Ying, use a detection robot."

"That thing is so expensive!" The woman sitting opposite muttered, took out a palm-sized square box from her pocket, and turned it on the box with a key, and four wheels and a full-height stick out immediately. The camera, slowly drove towards the door.

At this time, other diners also noticed that the atmosphere was not right. The office workers looked blank, the students shrank to the corner, and the gangsters looked nervous.

"Lu Ning, what's going on outside?" Yan Rong asked in a low voice.

"I can't see it, it's just that all kinds of data are converging, temperature, light, energy... This should be clearly reflected in visual observation, but in fact we can't see anything, right?"

Through the window next to the door, it can be seen that it is indeed still the usual night outside.

The iron box robot passed through the curtain and came outside. The woman named Chai Ying took out a mobile phone-sized surveillance screen and began to observe the situation outside. After a few seconds, she looked up and said, "I didn't see anything."

"No, there is definitely something wrong outside." Robert grabbed the hilt of the sword behind his back, "What if—"

Bang!
Someone bumped into the door frame, as if it came suddenly, Chai Ying didn't even see where he came from.The man raised the door curtain halfway, with a drunken look on his face, his hands seemed to be scratching his arms, and he saw the people in the store grinning: "Hey... Everyone... How about... food?"

It was only at this time that Lu Ning remembered the appearance of these three people. They were also the first tourists who gathered at the Martial Arts Field in the distribution center. It was just that Lu Ning was not focused on remembering the appearance of these people at the time, so it took so long to remember these few people. personal.

But now even though she recognized it, she still focused on the drunk man who broke in first.The power on this person doesn't look strong at all, and he even seems to be just a vagrant wandering around, but some crumbs are constantly falling from his hands that are trying to scratch.

— that's the skin.

"Hey! Tell me your name! Otherwise, don't blame me for kicking you out!" Ana stood up directly, drew out her saber and pointed at the drunk.The drunk man, as if he hadn't seen it, still leaned against the door and smiled strangely, but his brows slowly frowned.

"It's itchy... Tsk, I guess I drank fake wine again... That dead wine dealer, I knew he couldn't sell anything good... Huh? Huh?"

He finally stopped the movement of his hands and raised his hands. The dirty nails had been stuffed with stringy things, and some were even outside.

"Robei, Ise... Am I right?" Chai Ying had already retreated to the side, with her hands behind her back, ready to go.

At this time, everyone could clearly see that the drunk had already scratched off most of the skin on his forearm, but the strange thing was that he didn't shed a drop of blood, and through a thin layer of fat, he could see the bright red inside muscles.

"Hey! Report to the boss quickly! Something must have happened here!" A gangster picked up the stool with his backhand, yelling at the people next to him while carefully watching the drunk man's movements.

"The face...is itchy too! The legs are also itchy! Have I not showered for too long? I really..." The drunk man scratched his face, and this time it was no longer a strip, but a The whole piece of skin was pulled off by him, he stared at the piece of skin and was stunned for a moment, "What is this dishcloth-like thing?"

At this moment, the mobile phone in Ana's pocket rang, and the ringing startled several people. She quickly took out her mobile phone and connected it. Lu Ning saw that Ana's expression quickly changed from doubt to nervousness.

"Lan Tu...I'm here now."

Lan Tu on the other side of the phone said something hastily, and after Ana hummed a few times, she hung up the phone.

"Lan Tu?" Yan Rong asked.

"Yes, just now..." Ana looked at the people around her, and even she hesitated before continuing, "The new reward has just been released, which includes a warning of a glorious sacrifice issued by Sacrifice."

"I guess it's with us?" Lu Ning asked.

"That's right, it covers about three blocks. At present, everyone in this area is treated as 'dead' for the time being. This glorious sacrifice is tentatively named 'molting', and the nobles will directly send people to deal with it." There was cold sweat streaming down Ana's forehead, "This time it's terrible..."

"what is the problem?"

The drunk man had already torn off a large area of ​​his skin, making him look like a living mannequin, but he continued to scratch the place on his body unconsciously, which would have seemed normal if he was bleeding, Unfortunately, not a single drop of blood flowed out.

"Get out!" The gangster didn't know where the courage came from. He picked up the stool and rushed up. A stool hit the drunk man. It was obviously an effort. The stool cracked and broke a leg, and the drunk Han took a step back, staggered and fell outside.

"Haha, haha... But that's all..." The gangster laughed out of breath, "Let me see you again..."

At this moment, Chai Ying shouted: "Get out of the door!"

The gangster obviously couldn't react to this sentence, but turned his head to look at Chai Ying, and then his head flew out with the force of turning his head, and turned two times on the ground before stopping.

With a "gudong", the headless body fell down.Immediately afterwards, the door curtain was violently torn apart. A man who was nearly two meters tall, covered in blood-red muscles and bulging skin, stood at the door, his eyes were bloodshot, he stuck out his tongue and licked his skinless lips, and scanned the room. , and then opened his mouth to say some strangely pronounced words.

"Chai Ying! What weapon did he use to cut off his head?" Robert asked in a low voice.

"Blow! This guy just blew on the door curtain! This is no longer a normal monster! We have to retreat!" Chai Ying screamed.

The sound also attracted the attention of the muscular monster. He looked at Chai Ying with his lidless eyes, showed an ugly smile, shrank his muscles, and burst out at an incredible speed, even Lu Ning could only see A red afterimage, even Ise and Roberto couldn't react to his sudden sprint!

In an instant, a roaring sound came from behind Lu Ning, and the iron-gray giant shadow hit the muscular monster who launched the sudden attack first, and the huge gun gun spewed indigo tail flames and brought him to the ground. The table where no one was eating, smashed all the tables and chairs, but it still saved Chai Ying.

Yan Rong stepped on the stool, gestured at the muscular man with his long gun, and said, "Uncle Deng, I'm sorry for breaking some of your things, and I'll make up for it when it's done here. "

"Yan Rong! We can't beat this monster!" Lu Ning glanced at the muscular monster who was getting up, "Now we have to find a way to escape from this area, not here..."

"Lu Ning, some monsters are indeed invincible at a glance, but this one is definitely not." Yan Rong was not prepared to retreat at all, "Yes, we are leaving here, but I must go through the main entrance. Can be defeated If you can't beat it, you still have to hit it head-on to find out!"

As soon as the words fell, Yan Rong had already stepped on the stool and jumped up, the dark red light attached to the spear, facing the weird man who hadn't got up yet and knocked down the door!

"Ow!!!"

With the roar of the strange man, he directly pulled out the gun that was stuck on his body, and intercepted Yan Rong's attack horizontally.Unexpectedly, Yan Rong didn't fight with him at all, the spear changed midway, retracted like a spirit snake, and pierced the strange man's chest ferociously!
Originally, the weirdo was caught off guard by the blunderbuss gun. At this moment, he didn't have time to defend himself. He was stabbed in the heart by a shot, and he staggered back a few steps. The blunderbuss gun in his hand was also thrown away. He also took over the gun.

"That's all." She sneered.

Lu Ning had to admit that Yan Rong would always break her perception of armed tourists.

But at the same time, even though he was shot in the heart, the strange man didn't bleed a bit of blood. Instead, his muscles quickly closed to seal the wound, and he stabilized his figure again, staring fiercely at Yan Rong with a pair of eyes.

"The heart is not fatal? It seems that he is no longer human..." Yan Rong swung his guns horizontally and rushed forward again. His speed and strength are still higher than Yan Rong, and it is quite easy to seize the weapon.

"I don't have a long memory!"

The blunderbuss blasted and ignited again, and the built-in micro-reactor provided a strong thrust. Yan Rong deliberately pushed the blunderbuss forward, and the monster just grabbed it, and was distorted by the sudden increase in force the moment he just pinched it. After getting out of his body, Yan Rong turned around at a high speed, jumped up slightly, and the spear in his right hand sank into his mouth like lightning, and went straight into his throat!
"Goo... Ka!"

That breath was stuck in his mouth like this, and the weirdo had to let go of the gun again, but this time he put his hands together and directly held Yan Rong's gun handle, and then sucked in air suddenly, his head was like a balloon The same swelling - his throat was blocked, and he could still hold gas!
Yan Rong was caught with the weapon in mid-air, and instantly supported it with both hands, and turned to a higher place with the help of the monster's power. The moment he let go, his hands slightly twisted, and the two were engraved like flutes, but the tips were equipped with sharp guns A pointed city-breaking spear suddenly appeared, aiming at the strange man in the air.

Piercing the heart and not dying, piercing the throat and not dying?
Yan Rong narrowed his eyes slightly, and swung his hands interlaced, with a strong sound shock, the twelve-tone city breaking spear made a loud noise like landslides and earth cracks, and the strange man also spit out a sharp invisible gas with his nose at this time Sharp knives, the two sides attacked each other, a shattered halo flashed across Yan Rong's body, and the two giant spears directly plunged into the strange man's head, and the "balloon" exploded instantly!
