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

"It's a scaly python."

Just when Hiiragi looked out to observe the strange corrosion bird, the Southern Federation team had already taken action. Several team members followed the instructions and climbed to the top of different floors. The report revealed the truth about the strange corrosion bird that was treated so vigilantly. .

Chapter 56 The monster’s final battle

"How long...will they continue like this?"

After carefully advancing about 100 meters under tremendous pressure, the team no longer dared to move forward even half a step. They could only hide in place and wait for the best time to take action.

The two high-level monsters seemed to focus all their attention on their opponents, but that didn't mean they ignored their surroundings.They are all very aware of this situation: now they are only one step away from their goal, and what they need to beware of is the third party that may be lurking in the dark as well as the visible threats.

The perception abilities of these two high-level monsters are extremely sharp. Both records and examples have proven that no disturbance within the scope of their attention can escape the capture of their senses, and any adventurous move that takes a chance will inevitably cost. A heavy price to pay.

Furthermore, once these two dangerous monsters start fighting, Chiyu will inevitably be affected, and the vast surrounding area will be affected and become the battlefield for their contest. The team is actually stepping on the final edge of danger.

Silent waiting in a depressing environment wears down people's patience the most. People who have been tested in actual combat know how to adjust their mentality under such circumstances. But for Ujiaxu, a non-combatant, even if he has just passed the test of the Red-bearded Spider Queen, It is difficult to maintain a normal mind under such circumstances like other professionals.

Especially after he witnessed with his own eyes the source of this chaos, the chaos shrouded in dense fog that could not be described with current knowledge under the beam of light, a fire originating from his heart continued to eat away at his patience. An unsettling itching sensation clings to the whole body, and the nails that haven't been cut for many days can't alleviate this feeling even if they leave countless red scratches on both arms and neck. Ujiaxu is eager to get closer to it and find out.

If I could be the first to detect this strange ether-like substance, if I could publish the first report on it...then would anyone still question my identity as a B-level researcher?He may even be nominated for the A-level qualification and officially enter the core level of the Science Department.

"Shut up, stay still and stay out of the way."

But immediately, the fire in his heart was extinguished by Jiaheng's cold warning, and he, who kept peeking in front of the window, retreated back to his hiding corner.

At this time, the team is located on top of an office building with only three and a half floors left. This is the limit of how close they can get. Further ahead is the center of the town in the sinkhole, a large square with open terrain, where the light pillar is. location.

The important reason for advancing here is the wide field of vision. From their viewing angle, they can not only observe the movements of the two opposing sides, the Corrosion Monster Bird and the Scaled Python, but they can also confirm the latest changes in the ether-like material with the naked eye. .

In fact, not only Wu Jiaxu, but everyone including Jiaheng is full of a strong desire to explore such a strange chaotic fog. The mystery in it has an inexplicable power that makes people unable to take their eyes away. He couldn't help but forget about the existence of the scaly python and the strange corrosion bird.

Even though this was the second time Hiiragi had seen this kind of existence, the level of surprise in her heart had not diminished at all, and she was also eager to understand the mystery of the fog in order to make up for the last time in JD's ruined city. The regret of missing out due to sudden coma in the crater, after all, the verbal description conveyed by Han Nianling was far inferior to witnessing it with his own eyes.

As if in response to everyone's long-awaited expectations, the fog that had been calm for nearly half an hour finally changed.

As if there was a faint crisp sound, the dense fog that filled the surrounding area faded away like a tide at a speed visible to the naked eye. The light of the light column seemed to have reached its peak and gradually dimmed. The remaining fluorescence moved closer to the center and flowed. .

"Report, the siren began to flash, and the surrounding dark energy was very strong." The siren was set to silent mode for covert operations, but the flashing red light still played its role dutifully.

In fact, even without the warning of this team member, everyone hiding in the small building clearly felt an invisible force coming from that direction. Both the body and the spirit were under the pressure it brought, as if they were shrouded in something. Under the clouds that left people breathless, this change instantly affected everyone's nerves.

Changes in the ether-like substance also promote changes in the confrontation situation. As this magical ether-like substance further matures, the delicate balance will inevitably be broken. Under such pressure, one of the two sides in the confrontation will always be unable to calm down and take the lead. Take action.

"Is its change... the same as that of the JD Abandoned City?" Jiaheng stared at the strange thick fog with wide eyes. At the same time, she did not forget to further confirm with Hiiragi Jing whether all these abnormalities were normal. Within the supposedly normal range.

This question gave Hiiragi a difficult time. Last time in JD Abandoned City, she just took a quick look at it from a distance and then fell into coma. She really didn't know what changes would happen next, but what happened now There was not much difference from Han Nianling's description, so Hiei Jing nodded silently.

Perhaps my mood was too much looking forward to it. From the moment the thing changed, my heart began to beat rapidly, and a faint impulse brewing from my heart kept making the sound of desire.

Why have I become so uncool?

"The scaly python is moving!"

The final fight of this chaos has begun.

Suddenly, a low exclamation in the team changed the focus of everyone's attention. As expected, the scaly python, which had been maintaining a coiled posture and confronting the opponent on the signal tower, was the first to break the stalemate and lifted the stalemate. He lost his alert posture and crawled towards the gradually compressing fog.

The huge body without limbs moved so quickly. The pavement that the heavy body crawled on was crushed into deep depressions. The stone slabs paved in the square were either crushed into fine powder or twisted into pieces. The moving scales were completely opened, and the scaly python was moving forward with great momentum. It was obvious that it was planning to swallow the chaos in one gulp before the corrosion monster bird could react.

Everyone watched nervously as the distance between the scaly python and the chaos quickly narrowed. Once its action succeeded, all their previous efforts and sacrifices would be completely in vain, and the so-called action would become a war. A complete joke.

Fortunately, the Corrosion Monster Bird did not disappoint. It counterattacked even more quickly. As early as when the Stacked Scale Python stretched its muscles and changed its posture, the Corrosion Monster Bird understood the opponent’s intentions. Before the Stacked Scale Python took action, It immediately jumped down from the signal tower where it was located. Its huge wings did not fully unfold, but retracted its wings backwards, and its entire body formed a sharp cone shape and swooped down towards the scaly python.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

Like a cannonball falling at a very fast speed, even at the last moment of landing, the strange corrosion bird showed no intention of slowing down. In the huge roar that even shook the earth, the dust rising into the sky was like a wave, corroding the strange bird's body. The impact point is centered and spreads to the surroundings. Except for the short duration, this power can almost be called a small sandstorm.

After the strong wind outside subsided, everyone immediately returned to the window to follow the battle between the two monsters.

I saw that the fallen corrosive monster bird had clamped the body of the scaly python with its claws, but the sharp claws could not penetrate the thick and strong scales no matter how hard they tried, and the white scratches in vain were not covered. The giant scaly python suffered substantial damage, but it also successfully stopped the python's attempt to swallow Chaos.

However, the strange corrosion bird was not satisfied with this. It opened its mouth, and a large ball of black viscous liquid spit out from its beak and landed on the body of the scaly python. The mucus seemed to boil at the moment of contact. It seemed normal, with dense bubbles pouring out from it, and the explosion of each bubble was accompanied by a rising stream of smoke.

Its corrosive fluid is effective against the scale defense that the scaly python relies on!

It was just that it had no time to expand its results. At this time, the scaly python also recovered from the heavy impact just now. It twisted and turned its body and launched an attack on the corrosion monster bird, opening its huge mouth at an almost flat angle. Rush towards it.

call--

After fluttering its wings and taking off to avoid the bite of the scaly python, the Corrosion Monster continued to circle high in the sky waiting for the second opportunity to attack...

"action!"

After all, the excitement in front of you is not a movie that stays on the screen. It is a scene that actually happened in reality. The battle between the two also urges everyone in the team. Only at the most intense moment of the battle between these monsters will they have that rare moment. Seize the opportunity.

"Reijiu? What's wrong?"

The team left the window sill one by one, and Hiiragi also stood up and prepared to leave, but suddenly found that Lingjiu, who should have acted most decisively, was lying on the window sill, staring in the direction of the chaos, in a daze.

It wasn't until she reached out and patted Ling Jiu that she came back to her senses. Such a rare situation made Hiiragi unavoidably worried about the other party's mental state. After all, the other party did not drink refreshing drinks. It would be terrible if something went wrong at such a critical moment. .

"I... I... nothing."

A strange feeling has emerged from my heart since I saw the inexplicable chaos with my own eyes. It is an unprecedented feeling. It seems that I have wanted to witness the impulsive emotions of the outside world several times, but this emotion is stronger, and it is also More need to hide...

Chapter 57 Mutants take action

The battle between the corrosive monster bird and the scaly python has completely broken out, but even so, the team still acts cautiously. Although they are fighting only each other, the battle between two high-risk monsters can only spread the aftermath. It is also fatal to humans.

The wind and waves that swept through the town just now have caused many dangerous buildings to sway and become precarious. Along with the rising dust in various parts of the town, countless buildings that have stood for hundreds of years have passed their final days, collapsed and turned into finals. Ruins, scattering their fragments around.

This forced the team to be cautious in their actions, wary that nearby buildings might turn into bricks and rubble that would bury them at any time.

Fortunately, the structure of the buildings in this area is relatively intact, and no hidden dangers of collapse have been found. However, this does not mean that this place is safe. Even dangers that are farther away may come to their heads at any time.

"Little, be careful of the signal tower!"

The first second after hearing this warning, Hiiragi raised his head and looked at the only signal tower in the entire Tiankeng town, which was also the point where the corrosive monster stopped to land and confront the scaly python.

After a hundred years of baptism, this rusty signal tower has been severely corroded. The top part has long been twisted and bent, and the steel supports are also incomplete. The weight of the corrosion monster has pressed the already fragile support structure to the ground. On the verge of collapse, the waves of increasingly intense vibrations were the last straw that fell under the heavy pressure.

'Crack! '

There was a clear but weak sound of metal twisting, which represented the collapse of a support. No one would notice this sound in the context of the two monsters fighting, but this was the first starting point for toppling the dominoes.

Following this sound, there was a second sound, a third sound...

The tearing and twisting sounds were connected together. This was the final cry of the signal tower being overwhelmed. It also represented the complete failure of the steel bracket that was not supporting the signal tower. Finally, the half-broken signal tower tilted uncontrollably and collapsed in one direction.And the direction it fell was exactly the direction of the team and others.

It was the moment when it was noticed that it emitted a series of mournful cries. When Hiei Jing raised her head, she saw the signal tower magnifying infinitely in her eyes...

"boom!!!!"

A heavy roar was close at hand, and a strong wind mixed with thick dust blew towards his face, making it difficult to open his eyes. Hiiragi could only raise his hands to protect his face.

"Huh-cough cough cough..." While fanning her palms to try to dispel the choking dust breath from her face, Hiiragi opened her eyes and looked in the direction where the signal tower fell.

There was only a blur behind the dust. The huge impact of the signal tower itself almost crushed all the buildings along the line, and its top spire was only a four- to five-meter-wide street away from the team's location. The splashing gravel The gravel fell all over their bodies, and even with the slightest movement, they could hear the sound of gravel rubbing against the fibers of their clothes as it fell from their bodies.

"Is anyone hurt?"

"Are you OK."

"..."

The team members who had recovered from the shocking scene immediately checked each other's status. The signal tower collapsed too suddenly. The team members who had been paying attention to the surrounding buildings never expected that the signal tower was facing their direction. What about smashing it?Fortunately, the height of the signal tower was not high enough to hit their location, so the accident was a near miss.

The diffuse dust gradually fell to the ground and dissipated, and the hazy scene behind gradually became clear. Just as Hiiragi looked at the building destroyed by the signal tower across the street, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the building behind the pile of collapsed ruins and smoke. There stood a... figure.

silhouette? !

What kind of figure is that? Isn't it the mutant that I haven't seen for a long time?

What shocked Hiiragi not only was that the dangerous mutants were only one building away from them, but also that some of the mutants, numbering around seven or eight, actually had weapons in their hands that were not crude spears. These are handmade products, but firearms!

That's a real firearm!There are crude scrap guns made of iron pipes and logs commonly used by scavengers, and there are also rifles commonly used by mercenaries.

Although the gun-holding posture is a bit funny due to their excessive size, their fingers on the trigger are not useless, and they can actually shoot.

Could it be that some of these mutants have learned to use firearms?

Thinking about it this way, it is really possible. The intelligence of these mutants is far beyond that of ordinary monsters. After fighting many humans, they naturally learned how to use firearms. However, the image of using spears in combat was dismissed. The subversion was too shocking. If you think about it carefully, wasn't it just a few unprovoked gunshots that attracted them into the depths of the jungle in the first place?

The current situation is subtle and strange.

The human side was shocked by the existence of mutants, and the mutant side was also shocked by the sudden appearance of humans in front of them. The building that was hit by the signal tower was actually the presence of the other side.

Jiaheng was the first to start the attack. Almost as soon as he witnessed the opponent's presence, he raised his hand and pulled the trigger, hitting a mutant holding a gun with one shot.

The rapid bullets entered his pupils, killing him before the other party could get out of his shock.

This shot awakened both sides at the same time. The combat quality of the human side was obviously much higher than that of the mutants. There was no eye contact or gesture communication, and different shooting targets were determined based on their respective positions.

While the mutants were still busy preparing to counterattack, the team members had already pulled the trigger towards the mutants' weaknesses. In an instant, only one mutant had time to fire a few bullets and was killed by them all.

"Damn green-skinned monster, he hit pretty accurately..."

The quick conclusion to the fight was not entirely without incident.

Hearing this complaint, Hiiragi discovered that the mutant's counterattack before his death, which he had not aimed at at all, actually hit one of their team members.

However, due to the worn-out firearms and ammunition, the power was not very high. The high-level protective plates on the team members easily blocked the bullets, and there was no need to replace the new protective plates with that little damage.

"You two go check..." Just as Ping Gaochi pointed out that the two of them came forward to check, Jiaheng interrupted him.

"It's not necessary, we need to hurry up." Looking at the side where there was no movement, Jiaheng didn't have time to care about it even if there were still strong vitality and survival, "Mutants have never given up fighting for that thing, waiting for opportunities. There are definitely more mutants waiting to attack. The gunshots here have exposed our position. They are also waiting for the opportunity and will inevitably choose to strike first. We don’t have time."

After confirming the existence of mutants, the team had to risk the danger of dangerous buildings to speed up their progress. However, the danger is fair to either party, and dangerous buildings are also fatal to those who transform.

As they passed a ruin, they quickly discovered an arm stretching out from under the ruins. The slate-gray skin easily identified the identity of the mutant who owned the arm.

"Quick, ahead, the square is ahead!"

They had already reached the entrance, which was only a few hundred meters away from the square. In front of them was a large open green belt and flower beds.

The light pillar in the sky has completely disappeared, the surrounding thick fog has become thinnest to the lowest level, and the chaos seems to have been compressed to the limit. The flowing fluorescence pokes out from the cracks of the chaos. No matter who is familiar with this strange and unfamiliar chaos, None of them understood it at all, but at this moment they couldn't help but realize that it was the sign of the maturity of the ether-like material.

"The intensity of dark energy has reached the detection peak, and the alarm has failed..."

The team member equipped with the detection instrument noticed that the flashing red instrument seemed to be burned out due to the excessive intensity of dark energy. Just as he was dismantling the instrument and preparing to discard it and lighten the load, a spear flew from his side. It penetrated his waist, and the body that was carried flew towards the ditch on the side of the street.

The instrument that was too late to be thrown fell to the ground, breaking into countless fragments and parts.

"Mutants! Those ghosts are waiting for us here!"

Although they knew that the mutants were nearby, they did not expect that they would actually set up an ambush not far ahead. The iconic weapons revealed the identity of the attackers. The team members who were attacked again had to spread out and hide nearby. behind the bunker.

In order to compete for the ether-like material that is about to mature, this group of mutants seems to be determined to completely annihilate these humans. The initial spear attack was followed by a burst of bullets, and bullets hit the walls and the ground. An uninterrupted string of debris was thrown up, and the powerful firepower was so overwhelming that the team could not even lift its head.

No one would have thought that in the battle with the monster, he would be so embarrassed by human weapons. He raised the gun over the bunker and fired randomly several times, but it had no suppression effect.

"Grenade!"

"Boom boom boom!!!!!!"

The team members took off the grenades from their waists and prepared them. Just when everyone's fingers were about to close the pull ring and prepare to pull it out, a heavy impact came from a very close distance, just a few meters behind their bunker.

This violent blow almost lifted up the entire ground. The violent vibration and impact even caused Hiiragi to be catapulted several meters into the air in an instant and flew upside down into a group of ruins. The ground where he was hiding also opened up with terrifying dense cracks. To the extent that Hiiragi Shizu's calves can be swallowed up if he's not careful.

The nearby buildings, regardless of whether they were in danger or structurally intact, all collapsed completely under such an impact. Such an impact made Hiiragi feel a wave of discomfort. The feeling of being hit by the sudden expansion of the ground against his chest was really uncomfortable. .

In the end what happened?

Holding back the sore vomiting sensation in her throat, Hiei Jing looked out of the bunker and saw that on the street in front of them, the person in the deep pit that had just been smashed was actually the one fighting with the giant scaly python. Corrosion monster bird.

So fast?Have the monsters decided yet? !

Chapter 58 Ujiaxu’s decision

"Be careful!!!"

I don't know who shouted the alarm loudly, and a piece of ceramic tile the size of a palm suddenly fell from above the head. The rough surface with cracks almost rubbed against Hiiragi's forehead and the tip of his nose. The sound exploded into countless tiny fragments on the ground in front of Hiiragi Jing.

The burning feeling that remained on her forehead and the tip of her nose had not yet dissipated, and before her eyes could turn away from the sudden fragment, her ears immediately heard the sound of cracking cement coming from behind her.

quick!Get out of here! !Such a call suddenly came from my heart.
