Chapter Thirty-Eight: Killing the Ape
The night was unexpectedly calm, the fog was still so thick and the jungle was still so quiet. When Su Yue woke up, it was already early the next morning, rubbing her sleepy eyes, she found that she had covered her body with a tarp at some point, although it was hard and not as comfortable as a blanket, but it was the only thing that could be found in the carriage that could replace the quilt. Su Yue sat up and looked at Shen Hao who was preparing breakfast not far away through the car window, and couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in her heart.
The fire outside was not extinguished, perhaps because Shen Hao had prepared enough firewood before, but the main reason was that such strange-colored branches were much more resistant to burning than ordinary wood, but in the process of burning, there would always be an indescribable strange smell.
Park Sung-hwan and Wang Peng have already woken up, and they don't know what they are talking about together. Shen Hao ignored them and sat alone by the campfire, using a small iron pot made of multi-functional kettle to boil water on the fire.
Su Yue poured some water from her kettle, wiped her face indiscriminately, and then pushed the car door and jumped down. Shen Hao smiled at her and beckoned her to come over to eat, but the "stick duo" over there was unceremonious at this time, and surrounded her without waiting to say hello. However, Shen Hao looked at Su Yue's face and did not say any more sarcastic words, and distributed the dry food in his hand.
Breakfast is very simple, that is, compressed biscuits soaked in boiling water, which is really not delicious, but it can fill your stomach. After eating, all four of them got into the Hummer H2 and continued to explore into the depths of the fog.
Shen Hao drove, and Park Sung-hwan talked to Su Yue in the passenger seat from time to time, always trying to figure out the origin and purpose of the two. However, Su Yue is a policeman herself, and there is no need to fake her identity at all, as for the purpose, she made up an excuse to search for survivors and passed it perfunctorily.
Hummer H2 continued to drive along the edge of the jungle, Park Chenghuan and Ace in the car were a little anxious for some reason, and wanted to suggest Shen Hao to leave here several times, but although Shen Hao was smiling all the time, he didn't pay attention to them at all, Su Yue has always been looking at Shen Hao's horse, and naturally he won't pay attention to the thoughts of those two.
The car drove for less than half an hour, and suddenly Shen Hao's ears stood up, and he stopped in place with a foot of brake. "There's a situation in the woods, and the voice is coming towards us." Shen Hao glanced at Su Yue, and Su Yue rolled down the window, leaned out half of his body and began to look in the direction of the jungle.
Su Yueyun has enough eyesight, and the range of vision is about twice as strong as that of normal people, and at this moment, he can barely see that there is a figure in the jungle fleeing outside, and there are many shadows behind the figure, as if something is approaching quickly.
Su Yue hurriedly told Shen Hao what he saw, Shen Hao frowned, and only said, "Save people!" With two words, he pushed the door and got out of the car with his weapon. Su Yue was afraid of being separated from Shen Hao, so she turned around and told Park Chenghuan and the two not to leave the car, so she also pulled out her two guns and chased after them.
Shen Hao and Su Yue ran extremely fast, and they had already come to the edge of the jungle in one breath, and at this time they could see clearly that the person running in front of them was a girl wearing a taekwondo uniform similar to Park Sung-hwan and them, and she was actually carrying a young man dressed the same on her back.
"Come over here! Fast! Su Yue beckoned the two of them to come closer, and Shen Hao over there had already passed by the two, the scimitar in his hand unsheathed, blocking the exit of the jungle, ready to cushion them.
At this time, the pursuers behind also showed their hideous faces, just like Park Sung-hwan and their descriptions before, it was a group of tall, hideous-looking alien apes, a total of more than a dozen, the shortest of which was about two meters.
Su Yue blocked the girl behind her, and Caskal465 in both hands took the lead in firing. The power of the 13 mm bullet was indeed extraordinary, and one of the strange apes was hit by the bullet and broke off its skull on the spot, and fell to the ground with a whimper. However, the other strange ape reacted quickly, and bent down the moment Su Yue fired the shot, and a bullet grazed its scalp and shot into the ancient tree on the side.
"These guys react very quickly!" Su Yue suddenly felt tricky, and the two guns spewed out tongues of fire alternately, covering the little girl who was carrying a person on her back to retreat.
Su Yue's bullets can almost only play a role in containment, and there are only a few strange apes that can really be killed with one shot. But fortunately, at this time, Shen Hao had already dealt with the first few monster apes.
The monster ape led by him was nearly three meters tall, and he condescendingly grabbed Shen Hao's Heavenly Spirit Gai with one claw. Shen Hao stepped forward with his right foot on the side of his body, and the black scimitar held in his right hand was directly slashed on the head. Suddenly, the figures staggered, and one of the claws of the strange ape naturally caught the empty space, while Shen Hao's scimitar cut through the left shoulder of the strange ape, cut out under the crotch, and cut the huge body of the strange ape in half with a single knife. Shen Hao dodged through the blood-drenched corpse and swung his knife towards the next monster ape.
These strange apes were obviously much smarter than the previous human insects, and they no longer swarmed after Shen Hao slashed down the fourth strange ape with a knife in his hand. The rest of the strange apes paced and spread out in all directions, surrounding Shen Hao in the middle, and from time to time they let out a defiant roar towards him.
Shen Hao didn't have the patience to play the game of siege with them, and was about to rush forward to kill, when suddenly the group of strange apes close to the direction of the jungle spread out on both sides, and a white-haired strange ape swaggered towards him with a thick black tree trunk.
The imprint on the back of Shen Hao's neck suddenly emitted a tingling pain, and he reached out to touch it and blood oozed out. Shen Hao's face gradually turned cold, it seemed that this guy in front of him turned out to be an apostle of a demon!
Su Yue, who had already withdrawn from the jungle, also felt the abnormality at the imprint at this time, and stopped retreating at the moment, wanting to step forward to help Shen Hao.
"Don't come here, take them back to the car and wait for me!" Shen Hao didn't look back, his eyes were fixed on the apostle in front of him, and he shouted loudly to Su Yue.
The Strange Ape Apostle looked at Shen Hao, who was much shorter than himself, with great interest, and suddenly opened his mouth and let out a loud roar. The strange apes that were directly surrounding responded in unison, and almost at the same time, they jumped up and rushed towards Shen Hao from all directions.
"Damn! It's so cunning that you don't dare to fight me alone! Shen Hao scolded secretly, his body was short and sliding, and he broke out of the encirclement of the strange ape, and the scimitar in his hand also took advantage of this gap to slash and slash, and the three monster apes fell in a pool of blood with a miserable howl.
Shen Hao slid to break through, and before he could stand still, suddenly his eyes were dark, and a thick black stick slashed his head and covered his face. It turned out that the white-haired apostle had already touched his vicinity at some point, and as soon as he found a gap, he let go and sneak attacked.
Shen Hao's foothold was unstable, and it was inconvenient to dodge, so he could only block it horizontally. Hearing only two "bells", Shen Hao was slammed back more than ten steps, and the black gold scimitar in his hand was buzzing.
The white-haired apostle screamed again and again, and the last four monster apes surrounded him again, this time they no longer pounced on Shen Hao and fought hard, but stretched out their claws to scratch around him, scratching around, harassing him as much as possible, and he was annoyed. The apostle in the middle waved a big wooden stick and started a frontal assault on Shen Hao.
I don't know what kind of material the wooden stick in the apostle's hand is made of, it is not only heavy and extraordinarily heavy, but also quite hard, Shen Hao's special scimitar can only knock off a few sawdust each time, and it can't be cut at all. The apostle's brute strength was amazing, coupled with the harassment of the surrounding monster apes, which faintly suppressed Shen Hao to the upper hand.
"Bang, bang-" Two gunshots suddenly came, and the two monster apes that had already circled behind Shen Hao were about to sneak attack, but they were blown out of the head by the whistling bullets, Shen Hao saw the opportunity very quickly, and a backward flip avoided the smashing of the apostle's wooden stick, and the scimitar in his hand suddenly took off his hand and flew towards a strange ape that had just approached on the right. The strange ape obviously didn't expect Shen Hao to make such a move, and he was immediately stabbed through the throat by the scimitar, and his huge body was knocked off the ground.
Shen Hao's scimitar was tied to an iron chain on the handle, and as soon as the scimitar killed the monster ape, he grabbed the end of the iron chain and pulled it back. The corpse of the strange ape, which had just flown up, was dragged upside down and flew back, just in time for the apostle's angry blow, and was smashed into a pile of bloody mud by a stick.
Shen Hao didn't bother to pick up the knife, stepped forward and stepped on the tip of the apostle's wooden stick, jumped over, and his body somersaulted in the air, already flying over the apostle's head. At this time, one end of the apostle's wooden stick was still smashed on the ground and there was no need to lift it, but he instinctively raised his head and looked in the direction of Shen Hao, the red beast's eyes were full of surprise, but unfortunately it didn't see anything, because Shen Hao had already fallen behind it at this time.
Immediately after, it felt its throat tighten, and a chain strangled its neck under the effect of Shen Hao's brute force. The sharp pain and the feeling of suffocation that had reached the extreme of the moment made it involuntarily drop its weapon, and the fingers of both hands were picking indiscriminately/digging at its neck, trying to pull at the chain that was urging it. However, it was too late for these movements, and the slender and tough iron chain had already sunk deep into the skin, and the skin above its neck quickly turned purple-black.
The only remaining monster ape on the side had been trying to pounce on the savior, but unfortunately Su Yue not far away had already locked on him, and a series of bullets hit it with blood splashing everywhere, and he was too busy to take care of himself.
Shen Hao stood behind the apostle, kicked on its spine with one foot, the muscles of his arms bulged, and he suddenly burst out and roared. A musculoskeletal tear was heard, and the apostle's thick neck was twisted in two by him, and the ugly head flew upwards with blood spurting out, and the headless corpse shook twice and fell to the ground.
At this time, Su Yue also killed the last strange ape, and she walked towards Shen Hao with two guns. Shen Hao looked up, but was surprised to find that the girl with a man on her back was still following her, and suddenly a sense of foreboding came to her heart.
