Life as a mercenary turned into a girl is a bit difficult

Just like those monsters, her heart is longing for something...

Just when Hiiragi's body was uncontrollably trying to move in that direction, the stinging pain in her chest suddenly woke her up. Before she could recall what had just happened, the unbearable pain reached its peak in just a few seconds.

What's this? !what happened? !

"Uh...uh...ah uh..."

Hiiragi, who fell into the tunnel, did not see the process of the fluorescence becoming more and more eye-catching. She uncontrollably threw away all thoughts and just tore the clothes on her chest while struggling to endure the severe pain, no matter how the mud stained her clothes. , forcefully tore open the outermost layer of clothing, unbuttoned her vest, and pulled off her underwear. The scene in her heart made her eyes widen in disbelief.

Necklace...my sister's necklace is integrating into her body? !

The coin-shaped prototype pendant broke the metal chain at some point, and slowly penetrated into Hiiragi's heart like it was sinking into a quagmire. There were no blood stains or scars, only a continuous and severe pain, like needle pricks and burning. Rather than integrating into the body, it is closer to integrating into the soul.

It sank in a little bit, and when Hiroyuki reached out to peel it off, she found that her hands had penetrated the pendant - could it be that this pendant has no entity at all, just an illusion that cannot be touched?But what is this real physical pain?

The pain that continued to rise exceeded the limit of gritting her teeth and left her unable to think. However, when Hiiragi wanted to open her mouth and scream, she found that her throat seemed to be strangled, and even simple syllables could not be heard. Hard to send out.

Suddenly, as if split by a bolt of lightning, the second half of that dream memory flashed through Hiiragi's mind... The last sight of that life: the pendant immersed in a pool of blood shone with inexplicable fluorescence.

Is it... that fluorescent light? !Just like what I saw in the crater!

The struggling consciousness finally broke at the critical point and fell into deep darkness.

But she didn't know that a new round of changes in fluorescence finally caused the restrained witch and monster to show their fangs.

Chapter 57 The fight in the crater

The fog that had always remained calm suddenly faded away for hundreds of meters like a tide, shrank and gathered towards the center of the position, and continued to rotate around the center. On the other hand, the blue fluorescence that had been blooming just now gradually faded away and was hidden in the fog. The existence seems to have sunk into deathly silence.

"quack--!"

The changed fog and fluorescence had not yet changed further, but the mole monster that had been quietly 'praying' suddenly became excited.

It is difficult to imagine how this extremely unpleasant and piercing chirping sound was made. From the surface, it can only be seen that the bulging throat of the big mole monster is constantly trembling.

The sharp claws inserted into the ground were also pulled out from the soil. It changed from the squatting posture before. Facing the tyrant not far away, the monster lowered its front half and raised its hind legs high. This posture seemed to be ready. Preparation for the attack.

"Oh? Can you finally bear it?"

The tyrant carrying the giant scythe turned sideways and shifted his gaze from the fog to the mole monster that was showing its ferocious appearance. The indifference in her tone seemed to have foreseen the mole monster's behavior. She had no intention of confronting this mole monster. The monsters got along well, but it started a little earlier than she expected.

"It seems I overestimated your patience."

"Gah-"

Even though there was a communication barrier, the tyrant's ridicule and contempt were clearly conveyed to it through her inaction. She neither retreated due to intimidation nor put up a posture to fight. The powerful mole How could the rat monster endure the disrespect of this tiny creature?

'boom! ! ! '

The obese mole monster suddenly jumped up from the ground, and its body that seemed to be unable to move suddenly jumped more than ten meters in height. Such speed and explosive power even surprised the tyrant.

The mole monster fell straight towards the tyrant's position as if it was about to use its own weight to carry out a crushing attack. The tyrant held the long sickle handle in his hand, thought for a moment, and immediately stepped back to dodge.

An upward slash may be able to cause a lot of damage to the mole monster that has nowhere to dodge, but I'm afraid it won't be able to withstand such heavy pressure. The end of the body will not be much better than that of this mole monster. .

The mole monster curled up into a ball of flesh instantly smashed into the ground where the tyrant was standing. The heavy impact caused the ground to tremble. The fine gravel was stirred up by the impact and a cloud of dust covered the sky.

The tyrant immediately set up his scythe in front of him to alert the monster to attack her again under the cover of the dust. However, after waiting for several seconds, there was no second attack from the mole monster.

No, there was no way the other side would give up the attack. The trembling on the ground that didn't stop while he was thinking made the tyrant suddenly realize something.

'Boom boom boom! ! ! '

The next second, the ground beneath her feet collapsed downwards, and the tyrant's body, which was unable to stand still, began to shake due to the violent cracks. At the same time, sharp teeth broke out from the ground around her, and came from the closed jaws on both sides. It seems that he plans to swallow the tyrant and the surrounding soil in one go.

The tyrant's feet immediately hit the ground, and the already loose ground instantly collapsed and fell into the monster's huge mouth. The tyrant's body used the force to jump into the air in reverse, and jumped out before the mole monster's jaws completely closed and was swallowed. fate.

Fortunately, the monster's actions were predicted in advance and helped her escape.

However, the mole monster was not willing to let the tyrant he regarded as his target escape so easily, and reopened its closed jaws.

Are you going to pounce again?

Just as the leaping tyrant saw the huge mouth reopened directly below him, thinking that the mole monster had not given up its intention to devour it, he suddenly discovered that the soil that had just been swallowed in the opponent's mouth was rolling abnormally, and the soil was mixed with saliva. It was kneaded into a sticky ball by the muscles in the mouth, and the half of the body exposed on the ground also showed signs of swelling.

Could it be that……

There was no way to avoid being stuck in the air. As soon as the tyrant protected the broad blade of the scythe in front of him, the mud ball in the monster's mouth suddenly spat out from its mouth.

It hit the sickle blade hard, and the heavy blow was also transmitted through the blade to the tyrant behind.

call--

The disgusting and sticky mud ball exploded and splashed in all directions during the impact, and the tyrant's body also flew backwards during the impact. The moment she was about to land, the sickle in her hand dug downwards into the ground, using this point of focus as a The basic tyrant immediately adjusted his landing posture, stepped on the ground with his legs and took several steps back before he regained his footing.

Taking a deep breath, the tyrant regained his balance and shook his sore wrist, and tore off his left sleeve to wipe away the disgusting sticky substance adhering to the sickle blade.

"Although you are just an inferior creature, since you can come here, it means that you are not simple..." Wiping the cloth from left to right only once did not take much effort, but it has made the sickle blade as clean as new again, black The blade seems to have just been born.

Looking at his own figure reflected on the blade, the tyrant whispered and began to reflect on himself: "You are qualified...let me kill you seriously."

Just when the tyrant was wiping the book's blade, the mole monster had already re-entered the ground, and had been traveling deep into the ground. There was no slight ridge on the ground, and it was impossible to tell the exact location of the mole monster from the surface.

It's approaching!

The tremors transmitted from the soles of her feet confirmed her thoughts, and the sound of breaking ground came from behind. The tyrant immediately turned around and raised the giant scythe in his hand.

The thick claws pressed down from above and hit the long handles in front of his hands. This blow caused the tyrant's feet to sink into the sand under his feet until they were submerged into his calves. However, that was all, excluding the ground. Although her body was soft, she still firmly withstood the opponent's attack.

This made the monster startled. Its huge body did not completely suppress this creature, which was small compared to her. No matter how hard it exerted, its sharp claws could not suppress the tyrant's resistance. To touch her body.

"call--"

"Is this it?"

Taking a deep breath, the tyrant pulled out his feet from the ground while carrying the pressure of his sharp claws, and stepped out steadily. His slightly bent back feet were ready to exert force, and the faint black smoke that seemed like burning was already there. Her whole body was swirling.

In the eyes of the mole monster, for some reason, the creature in front of it actually gave it a sense of danger.

The simple brain was unable to process this complex change for a while, but the tyrant would not give it time to figure it out. After regaining the movement of her feet, she released the power she had accumulated for a long time.

A circle of air waves swayed from the soles of his feet, blowing up quite a bit of dust, and the main target of the afterglow of this power was the mole monster.

"Gah-"

The powerful force from the tyrant made the mole monster unable to stand for a while and fell backwards. It could not imagine where this irresistible power came from.After losing the suppression of the claws, the sickle in his hand also launched an attack under the tyrant's dance.

'laugh--'

The tip of the knife pierced the white abdomen and was immediately cut open by the rotating body. The long blood mark almost cut open the entire abdomen of the monster. When the sickle completed the wound it created, a large amount of scarlet blood spattered from it. And out.

boom!

The horrific injuries seemed to have taken away the life of the monster immediately. Without even a scream, it fell motionless in a pool of its own blood.

Facing the monster tyrant to the end, she couldn't help but squint her eyes, staring at the gradually spreading pool of blood spreading to her feet. Then she put the sickle back on her shoulder. Just as she turned towards the fog she was looking forward to, she just walked out of it. After a few steps, a strange loud noise suddenly came from behind.

When she turned around suddenly, she found that the monster that was supposed to be dead was gone, leaving only a pool of blood and a huge hole in place.

"Pretending to be dead? She's more cunning than I thought..." Before she could finish the whisper, the roar behind her set off alarm bells in her heart. As soon as she turned around, she found that a huge mud ball that she had been familiar with for a moment had already flown in front of her.

There was no time to dodge, so he could only wave the sickle and attack from the front.

boom!

The violent impact spread from her arms to her whole body, and her dragging feet made two deep marks on the ground. However, when she just stood firm, the mole monster that had just attacked once again disappeared from the surface and burrowed into the ground again. Even if the tyrant wanted to pursue him, it would be useless.

Drill in through the hole to pursue?No, the underground is this monster's home ground. Once you go deep into it together, you will be unable to fight back.

Just a few seconds later, the disappeared monster once again continued to emerge from the ground from an unknown direction, using the same attack method just now. After blocking the impact of three mud balls in succession, the soreness in his hands made the tyrant unable to hold the sickle. .

"It's really...smart."

This kind of fighting method seems a bit rogue, but fighting in this world is to win the chance of survival by any means, not to mention what they crave is that thing. Keeping themselves alive and killing their opponents is the only purpose.

Advanced monsters are also fighting with their minds. After experiencing the heavy damage just now, the mole monster has learned a lesson from it. The opponent is stronger than it. If this is the case, then give up frontal combat and change its strategy.

Instead, he relied on his ability to travel quickly underground and his special attack methods to consume the tyrant here alive.

When it once faced enemies stronger than itself, it used this method to defeat the strong with the weak. This tried-and-tested routine was almost invincible. It only gained its current strength by swallowing their crystal cores. This soft and easy The excavated earth also allows it to dig several times faster.

However, it did not realize that what it was facing was not a mutant beast or walking corpse of its own kind.

Its strong self-confidence made it ignore the increasingly dense black smoke on its opponent, as well as the strong sense of crisis in its heart...

"Then... stop here!"

Both her body and the giant scythe were surrounded by thick black smoke. The black smoke surrounding the tyrant was moving wildly like burning flames. She could feel the endless power being poured into it from the endless void. Inside the body, it is powerful, but on the verge of losing control.

When the shock under her feet reached the most severe moment, that was the moment when the mole monster passed directly below her. In order to launch a back attack that caught her most off guard in the shortest time, the tyrant's feet were the only way for it to pass.

At this moment, the giant scythe held high above his head slashed down heavily, gathering the black smoke wrapped around it and turning it into the most terrifying sharp blade.

The unstoppable blade and black smoke completely cut open the ground beneath his feet, and together with the mole monster inside, the mole monster, which was hit hard again, didn't understand what happened anyway. It was clearly deep in the safety of the underground. .

A huge wave of air poured into the closed underground world, and then rushed back out of the surface in the opposite direction. The severely injured mole monster was grabbed out of the crack by this force without any resistance, and along with it The dust that rose into the sky was thrown high into the sky together.

Just as the tyrant was about to deliver the final blow to completely cut the mole monster into two pieces after falling into the air for a short time, she suddenly noticed something and looked at the sky above her head.

Without a moment's hesitation, the tyrant forcefully retracted even half of the slash, and suddenly rushed towards the huge body of the monster that fell to the ground.

The next second, accompanied by countless violent roars, a series of explosions completely submerged the area.

Chapter 58 is close at hand

'Didi-di-di-di-di-di-di...'

Monotonous electronic syllables suddenly sounded at a rapid frequency. The source of this sound was located on the forearm of every security team member in the team.

It was an electronic instrument that was only the size of a small finger and was shaped like a vacuum tube. The red light on it also flashed with the frequency of the sound. It looked small but the sound was not small.

The general equipment equipped by the security team is naturally more advanced than that used by the standing army and civilians, and pollution alarms are no exception.

The difference from ordinary pollution alarms is that its detection range of pollution values ​​is larger and more accurate, and it will also issue three different levels of alarms: yellow, orange, and red according to different pollution orders.

Facing the highest level of red alert, just a pair of gas masks could no longer effectively resist the dangers of pollution. After turning off the alert, the team members immediately put down the backpacks behind them and changed their clothes. A square piece of dark green cloth was covered with Take it out.

There is no complicated operation at all. Just untie the only strap at the edge of the fabric and then grab one corner and lift it up naturally. The square fabric immediately stretches out and turns into a thick dark green gel coat in the blink of an eye. , the four white fonts of 'Pollution Isolation' located on the back have clearly stated the purpose of this item.

In less than a minute, the entire team put on this isolation anti-fouling suit and put their respective identification codes into the transparent sandwich on the chest for identification.

With such an airtight package, as humans, they are temporarily qualified to travel in this highly polluted area, but their sight and movement are quite restricted, and this requires higher coordination between the teams. Ordered one.

After putting on her clothes, she started walking again. At this time, Luo Shi turned to look at Han Nianling beside her. Her identification mark was not a code but an 'Erlenmeyer flask' from a research institute.

This made Luo Shi sigh softly. Did his seemingly unauthorized actions of personal will actually turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye?He couldn't believe that such special markings and the newly fitted size were not prepared intentionally.

Just when he was about to say something, Han Nianling unexpectedly spoke before her.

"Even in Area 01A, such a pollution index is a bit excessive. It is much higher than the average or even the peak value observed in the past month. The databases of the institute and the observatory have never recorded the occurrence of similar incidents. , you also think it’s abnormal, right?”

"Uh... um." Han Nianling's words were meant for him, but he, a soldier, didn't know how to respond to such a professional question, so he could only respond with a dry nod.

Fortunately, Han Nianling did not continue to ask. It seemed that she also realized that the other party's knowledge did not allow for an equal discussion in this field with her.

However, she changed the subject and asked a question that Luo Shi seemed to be able to answer.

"Captain Luo...do you believe in God?"

"god?"

The jump from 'pollution value' to 'god' made Luo Shi unable to react for a while. Is this asking him his subjective thoughts again?

Luo Shi thought about the question for a moment, and then gave his opinion seriously: "I don't think so. Most of those groups nowadays are just cult organizations to make money. Is Researcher Han interested in religion?"

"Really? Don't you think so?" Han Nianling's tone seemed to become more relaxed, but with a hint of disappointment. "It seems that Captain Luo is very dissatisfied with religion."

"Hmph!" Luo Shi snorted coldly, not hiding his disgust, "They are all harmful things. The bishop spreads so-called doctrines to enslave the people. He just makes money and violates a large number of underage boys and girls. The even crazier ones will also preach killing and perform human sacrifices to monsters... If I come across him, I will shoot him without hesitation."

Luo Shi's disgust is not without reason. There are many cult groups in this wasteland world. They are often small in scale, but their poison is deep. He just mentioned those things that almost all cults have in common.

In such a world, humans are undoubtedly weak survivors, and a simple spiritual sustenance is a huge motivation for their survival, especially in human strongholds living outside the base government. This need is most obvious.

Some speculators have seen this, simply package themselves, perform a few miracles arranged in advance, and then associate themselves with gods. After simply claiming that they have become the spokesperson of gods, it is obviously so full of loopholes. A farcical show, but believers often believe it.

Not just stupidity, but they really hope from the bottom of their hearts that in this cruel world there is a spokesman for God who can really bring them salvation.

Wishful belief is just a way to avoid facing the world.

"Then what if...it's not the god of cult weaving?"
