Trickster Hunter

Chapter 290 Memories of a Rainy Night

As soon as Sun Hang finished speaking, the rain around him suddenly fell into a state of stillness - the heavy rain that was pouring down from the sky seemed to have been paused and frozen in mid-air. Even the water droplets that fell on the mud and splashed up were not spared.

Sun Hang could even see the streamlined tracks left by the scattered small droplets in the air.

"What's going on with this rain?" Wang Xiyi immediately became alert and turned around to form a back-to-back defensive position with Sun Hang.

"This rain doesn't seem to be very clean." Sun Hang stretched out his hand and picked up a drop of rain suspended in the air. The moment his fingers touched the rain, a chill spread throughout his body.

This feeling is somewhat similar to Zhulong's ability, but not exactly the same.

"Rainwater is not clean to begin with." Wang Xiyi said, "It is mixed with a lot of radioactive dust. For ordinary people without protection, it is a 'dirty rain' that is deadly enough."

"No, I'm not talking about radioactive dust." Sun Hang rubbed the droplets on his fingertips. Before he finished the second half of his sentence, the still rain suddenly gathered in one place, and in a blink of an eye, it condensed into a transparent giant scorpion!

"Rainwater is also a weird thing?!" Wang Xiyi frowned, but she didn't think much about it. She puffed up her cheeks and spit a dragon's breath at the giant scorpion.

As soon as the hot dragon's breath touched the giant scorpion's body, a large amount of water vapor spread out, forming a "fog area" with extremely poor vision.

"Be careful, this guy is not dead." Sun Hang reminded.

A scorpion tail needle comparable in size to the lance of a medieval knight tore through the water vapor and headed straight for Wang Xiyi's head!

Wang Xiyi's reaction speed was not slow either. She threw out two balls of dragon flames with her backhand, instantly blasting the scorpion tail needle condensed from rainwater into pieces!

"That's it?" Wang Xiyi pulled the corner of her mouth and said with some disdain.

"Pay attention to the water vapor around you." Sun Hang said again.

"It's only about 200 degrees." Wang Xiyi said, "I don't think it's hot enough for me to use in a sauna."

"That's not what I meant!" Sun Hang kicked Wang Xiyi in the back - but his action was still a beat too slow. Before Wang Xiyi could be kicked away by him, six scorpion tail needles exactly the same as the one just now suddenly condensed in the water vapor around her, instantly piercing her body!

Not only Wang Xiyi, but Sun Hang was also attacked - one of the two scorpion tail needles pierced his left shoulder clavicle, and the other penetrated from the side waist, and then came out from the lower abdomen!

The two people were directly lifted into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.

"Sun Hang!" Zhong Ling's eyes widened. She was about to drive "Gagantel" to rush over, but the No. 001 strange skeleton suddenly flashed to the shoulder of "Gagantel", cut the safety locks on Zhong Ling's body with sharp nails, and lifted Zhong Ling up and fled nearly a hundred meters away.

The next second, the tall "Gagantel" was pierced by several scorpion tail needles.

The huge strange skeleton roared and waved its arms, slapping the scorpion tails that emerged from the steam.

However, as soon as its palm hit the scorpion tail, the scorpion tail immediately shattered and turned into scattered rain. After its palm passed, it condensed into the shape of a scorpion tail again.

On the other side, Sun Hang, who was thrown to the ground, climbed up with some difficulty. It took him only a few seconds to recover from the fatal injury for ordinary people. The only thing that made him feel a little uncomfortable was that the piercing cold transmitted from the scorpion tail needle was still running around in his body, causing his body to twitch involuntarily from time to time.

Sun Hang tried to absorb this chill, but found that it was impossible to absorb it at all. It was neither a weird thing nor a meme... It was not even energy.

This chill seemed to come from the scorpion tail needle, but it was actually Sun Hang's own reaction... The attack of the scorpion tail needle seemed to have the ability to disrupt perception. At this time, even if Sun Hang put his hand into a burning flame, he would feel the chill of the flame - even if his palm was burned to pieces, he could not feel any heat.

The good news is that this chill is fading quickly. Except for the occasional shiver, it did not cause any serious negative impact on Sun Hang.

In addition to the chill, the scorpion tail needle also injected a memetic toxin into Sun Hang's body... But compared to the unmanageable chill, the memetic toxin completely became a nutrient for the glutton.

But Wang Xiyi's situation was much worse than Sun Hang's.

Logically speaking, the black dragon's recovery ability should be stronger than that of Tai Sui, but the horrible wounds on Wang Xiyi's body showed no signs of healing at all - the granulation tissue that had just grown on the wound surface had not gathered together, and it rotted and festered into a mess; the broken bones did grow back, but they grew crookedly, and some even directly pierced the internal organs...

The dragon scales on Wang Xiyi's body surface were constantly falling off, and then growing again. The sharp edges of the scales cut the fair skin, and the bright red blood flowed down the surface of the limbs and dripped into the mud.

Wang Xiyi was not dead yet. She was trembling constantly, her eyes were dull, and she was constantly mumbling something... But these vague mumblings were interrupted by violent coughs from time to time, and every time she coughed, she would cough out a lot of flesh and blood that were not clearly distinguishable organs from her mouth.

Sun Hang walked towards Wang Xiyi.

He had not walked a few steps when he heard the whistling of wind in his ears. A pair of giant claws appeared from the thick steam and clamped Sun Hang's torso fiercely!

"Damn, it's not over yet?"

Sun Hang did not dodge, but turned around and opened his mouth towards the giant claws.

The corners of his mouth were torn all the way to the roots of his ears, and then his entire head turned outward, revealing the blood-red mucous membrane inside... The next second, Sun Hang's body exploded and turned into countless hyphae, wrapping towards the attacking giant claws.

The giant claw paused, as if it was afraid and wanted to turn into steam to escape, but the speed of the hyphae was much faster than it - in a blink of an eye, tens of millions of hyphae drilled into the giant claw.

There were countless tiny holes on the surface of each hyphae, and a huge suction force came from the inside of the hole. In just a few seconds, the rainwater that condensed into the giant claw was sucked up completely.

Each hyphae expanded from the original noodle-like diameter to the thickness of an arm. From a distance, Sun Hang seemed to have turned into a huge cluster of anemones... It was somewhat similar to the parasitic tentacles that had just been killed.

The Tai Sui hyphae began to retract inward, and the human form reappeared.

Sun Hang wiped a few drops of rainwater from his lips and burped.

Rainwater is not the body of the weird. If you have to classify this weird, it may be classified as a Xin type - that is, an energy-type weird.

After completely absorbing the strange creature, Sun Hang also learned its origin from its meme fragments.

It is the "companion strange creature" of Chimera 17.

During the "hatching" process of Chimera 17, a large amount of energy carrying defective meme fragments overflowed from its body. These defective meme fragments would mix into the rainwater that served as a "coolant" and fall on the ground - it was for this reason that Sun Hang felt that he could sense the breath of strange creatures everywhere.

Among these defective memes, some fragments were recombined to give birth to a new strange creature.

This strange creature can be regarded as the "offspring" of Chimera 17, but there is not much correlation between it and Chimera 17.

This is like the dead skin and dirt rubbed off by a person when scrubbing his bath turned into a new life - it is definitely wrong to say that this new life is the offspring of this person, but this new life does come from the person who scrubbed his bath.

Sun Hang suddenly felt that his metaphor seemed a bit inappropriate...

If this thing is really the mud rubbed off by Chimera No. 17, then the fact that he had just eaten it is equivalent to...

"Ugh..."

Sun Hang scratched his throat and spat on the ground with some disgust.

Sun Hang simply stopped thinking about these messy things. He walked quickly to Wang Xiyi's side and hugged her horizontally.

The meme virus attached to the scorpion tail needle is a bit similar to the anti-meme potion, which will destroy the original meme structure in the body of the weird or infected person. Before Wang Xiyi neutralizes these meme viruses, her own meme will always be in a defective state-functional defects are just a small matter. Over time, this state may solidify, thereby permanently changing her meme structure.

This thing is completely harmless to ordinary people, but for the infected, it is no different from poison wine.

Of course, in Sun Hang's eyes, poison wine is also wine.

Drinkable.

He grabbed one of Wang Xiyi's hands and bit her index finger.

His sharp teeth bit through the fingertips and sucked the dragon blood with a sweet and fishy taste.

Under Sun Hang's deliberate guidance, the meme virus in Wang Xiyi's body quickly gathered together and was swallowed by Sun Hang.

Her condition finally began to recover. The new flesh and blood finally blocked the huge wounds where bones and internal organs could be seen directly. The scales that fell off the surface of the body finally grew back again, and the end of the long dragon tail also rekindled the blue flame.

The rain around had long returned to normal. Sun Hang held the woman in his arms in a princess hug. In a trance, he suddenly had a sense of time and space confusion.

It was the same night, the same heavy rain, and there was also a soft female body in his arms.

Sun Hang couldn't help holding his breath.

He suddenly realized something. He seemed to have accidentally unlocked a part of the memory fragments sealed deep in his mind.

Tianfu City is located deep in the inland of Xiazhou Continent, more than a thousand kilometers away from the nearest coastline, but in the whistling wind, Sun Hang smelled a unique salty smell of seawater.

He didn't dare to move, nor did he dare to think about it. He didn't even dare to look down to see if the person in his arms was still Wang Xiyi.

He was afraid that the three apes would suddenly jump out and seal this memory again.

He didn't dare to do anything, just stood quietly in the rain, holding the not-too-heavy body.

Sun Hang opened his eyes, expressionless, he completely emptied his mind, and the whole person fell into a wonderful state of meditation.

Although he opened his eyes, his eyes were completely out of focus.

He knew it was raining, but the scenery around him was blurry. Even the raindrops that were close at hand turned into abstract black and white lines, crossing the picture in a mess.

He could no longer hear the rustling sound of rain and the whistling wind. The cold rain slapped his face, and the whole world was dead silent.

He closed his lips tightly, saying nothing.

The dense mycelium was like a needle and thread, sewing Sun Hang's lips tightly together.

This was a solution that Sun Hang came up with after being disturbed by the three apes last time.

Since the titles of the three apes were "seeing nothing", "hearing nothing", and "speaking nothing", it would be better for Sun Hang to take the initiative to close his senses instead of waiting for them to force him to "see nothing", "hear nothing", and "speak nothing".

He didn't need his eyes to see, nor did he need his ears to hear, and he didn't need his mouth to speak.

He only needed to feel with his mind... because these were all his memories, things he had personally experienced.

He had seen, heard, and said it, but all these things had turned into abstract information flows, woven into the curtain called "memory".

Sun Hang could feel his legs starting to move.

He was running.

He was not sure if he was running away or chasing, but in short, he was running faster and faster.

The person in his arms was not unconscious. She hugged Sun Hang's neck tightly and whispered something, crying.

Sun Hang could not hear her voice, but he could distinguish the words she was saying.

She said: Run fast, they are about to catch up.

She said: They want to eat us, because if they eat us, there will be nothing in the world that can stop them.

She said: You can throw her down, and she will help Sun Hang hold those things.

She said: Sun Hang will definitely be able to escape, to a place where those things cannot reach.

Sun Hang couldn't see anything. In those black and white abstract lines, some discordant traces began to appear. They were strange in shape, moved quickly, and were sometimes large and sometimes small... Although there were only black and white in his memory, they made Sun Hang feel a kind of dirty color.

They were like a kaleidoscope with a thin layer of dirt on the lens, and the shape and color kept changing with the rotation of the tube.

They were also like spots of light leaking through the lush branches and leaves, mixed with dust in the air, and a touch of crazy color could be vaguely glimpsed.

[P.S. Because I have been very tired these days, my cold seems to have worsened, and it has also caused chronic pharyngitis. I have always felt a foreign body in my throat and it is very uncomfortable. Is there any medicine that can relieve it? Please recommend. ]
