Chapter 22: The Nightmare
The already slightly clear sky suddenly darkened, and a large black cloud appeared out of thin air in the eastern sky. Black clouds rolled in, like a black canopy, instantly covering the entire Hailing Town. It was as if the already translucent day had suddenly turned back to night, and in the darkness, the space with the golden light caused by the middle-aged man's sword moves was particularly dazzling.
The restless corpses around them suddenly fell silent at this moment, and they were prostrate on the ground one by one, their heads bowed, as if they were greeting the approaching Demon Lord. The surrounding humans also forgot to shoot, and looked at the sky above them in horror, an invisible sense of fear spread rapidly through the crowd, and many civilians could hardly hold the guns in their hands properly.
Both hunters felt the extremely strong warning coming from their own brand, and the bald young man was still a little overwhelmed, while the middle-aged man's face was already sinking like water. The two of them took their sword moves, slowly landed on the ground, and stood side by side, the middle-aged man turned his head sideways and said something to the bald youth, the bald youth seemed to be a little stunned, and immediately shook his head, the middle-aged man continued, and the bald youth still shook his head.
The black clouds in the sky were getting lower and lower, and the air seemed to be dripping with water. Immediately after, a dull heartbeat resembling a creature suddenly sounded from everyone's hearts.
"Knock-" Many people couldn't bear it anymore and fell to their knees with their hands on their chests. At this time, the clouds in the sky quickly rotated, and the huge clouds swirled into a funnel-shaped vortex, which fell straight to the ground, and the place where it fell was the open space where the Type 86 122mm howitzer was placed at the base.
All the howitzers and the soldiers operating the artillery were like being hit by a huge iron hammer, and all of them were crushed with a "boom", and a large amount of dust and black gas dispersed with the violent shock wave, and the soldiers and civilians standing around were all overturned on their backs.
The smoke and dust gradually cleared, revealing a huge black shadow in the field, and everyone who saw the black shadow could not suppress the screams of horror.
It was a terrifying monster that was difficult to describe in words, no less than the size of a building, and its body was extremely strange and hideous, like a mixture of spiders, lizards, octopuses and worms, and a trace of black gas lingered on the surface of the body, looking eerie and evil. Six truck-sized strange eyes scanned the surroundings, and the yellow-brown vertical eyes like reptilian creatures had no human feelings, and they looked coldly and cruelly at the ant-like humans in front of them.
"Oh my God...... That...... Could it be that ......" Su Yue trembled all over, and an indescribable sense of fear occupied her heart, and this fear was difficult to suppress, as if it was an instinct of a living creature when facing her natural enemies.
"That's right! That's the Nightmare! Shen Hao patted Su Yue's shoulder, as if sensing the fear in her heart, he took two steps forward and stretched out his arms to hug Su Yue's petite body into his arms.
Shen Hao's embrace was generous and peaceful, Su Yue was gently hugged by him, the slightest coolness seeping from the surface of the black armor made her spirit lift slightly, her panicked heartbeat miraculously calmed down at this moment, her stiff body was slightly relaxed, but Shen Hao's whisper came from her ears.
"After a few days of fighting, the nightmare energy in your body has also accumulated a little, and then you only need a nightmare crystal, which can make you go one step further and skip the rookie limit directly."
"What is Nightmare Crystal?" Su Yue leaned the back of her head against Shen Hao's chest and raised her head to ask him.
"As the name suggests, the Nightmare Crystal is the crystallization of the Nightmare Demon's stored Nightmare Energy, and it is also the essence of the Nightmare Demon's life." Shen Hao didn't bow his head, still staring straight at the huge demon that came out of the black mist in the distance. I couldn't see his face through the skull helmet at this time, "This thing can refine the soul of the Nightmare Hunter, strengthen the body of the Nightmare Hunter, can make the Nightmare Hunter gain more powerful power, and it is also the source of the Nightmare Hunter's immortality." ”
"If you can completely absorb this nightmare demon's nightmare crystal...... Look at that bald fool over there. Shen Hao stretched out his hand and made a gesture to shoot, and said with a smile, "You can kill him with one shot!" ”
Finally, under the terrifying pressure of the Nightmare, the humans guarding the base broke out, almost all of them turned their guns, towards the terrifying monsters that descended like a mountain, everyone let out a desperate roar, frantically pulled the trigger, and poured all the bullets out, countless bullet chains were dense like rain, instantly covering the huge body of the Nightmare Demon.
However, whether it was all kinds of firearms, vehicle-mounted machine guns, or even the powerful smoothbore guns of the Type 96 main battle tank, the ammunition fired was about 3 meters close to the Nightmare before hitting an invisible iron wall, and countless bullets exploded in this invisible space with flames that were more brilliant than fireworks, but they could not cause any damage to the Nightmare. Gradually, the sound of gunfire became quieter, and I don't know if everyone had run out of ammunition, or if they had lost the courage to continue attacking in the face of the unbelievable situation in front of them.
Seeing that the crowd's attack was slowing down, the demon moved the giant feet of the eight arthropods, and took a step forward, the huge worm mouthparts opened like a black hole, and then a strange and strong suction force came from the black hole.
This strange suction force had no effect on the surrounding construction vehicles and weapons, but instead the humans within the suction range were pulled and unable to control their bodies, and one by one they were sucked upside down and flew towards the bottomless black hole. Then the large, fanged mouth closed, then squirmed and chewed, and the survivors around could hear the creepy cracking of flesh and bones.
The crowd, which had been pushed to the limit by the pressure of fear, collapsed in an instant, and many people threw away their weapons and began to flee in all directions like headless flies. At this time, the zombie herd, which had calmed down, began to act again, and millions of corpses formed a huge and dense encirclement, like a huge iron cage, enclosing all human beings in it.
"Although the Nightmare Demon is not the creator of the Nightmare Realm, he is the administrator with the highest authority. Here, no power outside the rules can do any damage to the Nightmare. Seeing that Su Yue didn't seem to fully understand, Shen Hao explained, "That is to say, if you can't attach a nightmare energy to your attack, then even if you launch a strategic nuclear bomb at it, you won't be able to hurt a single hair of it!" ”
"It's really terrible......" Su Yue looked at the flesh slaughterhouse in front of her, only to feel that her limbs were cold, and she forcibly endured a burst of vomiting in her stomach. The horror of human death is intertwined with the despair of dying, which is unbearable to look at.
"Don't think too much, if you don't want to be one of them, you have to kill that ugly monster quickly." Shen Hao let go of Su Yue and took off the black iron heavy sword behind him, but he held a standard grenade in his left hand, and said to Su Yue, "The plan is as discussed before, pay attention to my new grenade." Plus, your Nightmare can only withstand up to four attacks, but you can't squeeze yourself out and change positions immediately after three hits, you know? ”
"Yes!" Su Yue nodded firmly, and a confident smile appeared on her pale face, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect myself this time!" ”
"Very good......" Shen Hao reached out and gently rubbed Su Yue's hair, then carried the giant sword and jumped down the dirt slope.
On the opposite battlefield, two hunters with golden swords also began to act, perhaps knowing that the opponent in front of them was not trivial, and the two of them were already their strongest sword moves
"The golden light dominates the sky!!"
The two of them combined their swords and shot with all their might, and the golden mangs aroused were completely different from before. I saw the golden light, and the sky and clouds changed color! Wherever the strong mangs shine, they are all dead circles, not an inch of grass is left, and the vitality is cut off!! Countless scorching golden lightsabers tumbled like a tide, like an unstoppable golden storm, sweeping towards the giant nightmare demon.
"Roar-" The attack with a powerful nightmare bonus was really comparable to the previous guns, the nightmare let out a howl of pain, and the place where it was enveloped by the golden sword wind burst out with black blood mist, and the skin covered with lizard-like scales also made a "zizi" burning sound, and a faint smell of burning wafted from the air.
However, Jin Yan Jianchao could no longer perform miraculous feats at this time, and after this first wave of offensives, he actually began to have some strength to continue. After the first burst of blood mist dispersed, the sword momentum was no longer able to advance, and the blade struck the scale armor of the demon with a "clanging" metal impact, and countless lightsabers were shocked and bounced away in all directions.
A trace of contempt flashed in the eyes of the six giant monsters of the Nightmare Demon, and two tentacles like octopuses rose high, slashing like leather whips towards the storm of blades in front of them. The huge tentacles of the Nightmare Demon, each as thick as a subway train, were as fierce as a landslide under a whip.
Listening to the sound of "boom", the majestic golden storm in the sky was beaten apart under this blow, and the golden light disappeared in an instant, and the two figures were pumped upside down like broken pockets, and crashed into the solid cement floor, and actually crashed into two humanoid craters.
The middle-aged man was quite good, under such a blow, he could barely stand up with a long sword, but the bald man next to him had lost consciousness, looking at the shape of his body, he didn't know how many bones had been broken, and he was already out of breath and out of breath.
"Stupid humans! You are just food on the table of the great Nightmare Clan, how to taste it depends entirely on our mood......" The Nightmare Demon's mouth squirmed, and he could actually utter words that humans could understand, but this voice was huge and heavy, like rolling spring thunder, which shook people's eardrums, "With these small tricks of yours, you dare to resist us with your mantis arm as a car, it is really beyond your strength, and it is really a crime that deserves death!" ”
As he spoke, the huge tentacles were raised high again, as if they were ready to smash the two ants in front of him into meatloaf. However, at this moment, not far from the west, there was a sudden fluctuation of nightmare energy, and the giant pupils in the strange eyes shrank, and they turned their heads violently.
