Chapter 32: The Six-Armed King Kong
"Humans are fragile creatures and can no longer adapt to this cruel world, so we are determined to live in a different way, in the way of the Brotherhood of Steel. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Uncle Tom's tone was filled with unimaginable fervor, like a devout believer.
"What the hell is going on at this rally?"
Vanessa's voice carried a hint of confusion, the Brotherhood of Steel was her home, but at this moment it seemed extremely unfamiliar.
"Whatever happens, we'll have to see for sure."
Simon stood in front of Vanessa, dressed in cloth and looking so thin in front of the burly steel armor.
"That's not going to work, only Brotherhood members can attend the rally, so you can only stay here."
Uncle Thom said disdainfully.
"But he had saved the Brotherhood from danger, so why not?"
"These are extraordinary times, and the Brotherhood of Steel is in an extremely difficult situation. Vanessa you have to understand that we are at a turning point in innovation, and we cannot let anything disturb us. It's all for the Brotherhood of Steel! ”
Two peculiar javelins suddenly appeared in Uncle Tom's hands, as if they had grown out of nothing. The ends of the javelin are sharp, like an enlarged needle, shining with a dangerous light.
"So please stay."
Without warning, a cold light burst out, a javelin that had been skillfully thrown by Tom, stealthily and quickly.
Simon didn't expect the person he was talking to to suddenly strike, and it was so fast, he just wanted to dodge but was hit in the heart by the silver light.
Thom watched in amazement as the javelin he threw pierced the air and pierced through Simon's body.
Although it was not the first time, Simon was still very glad for his special physique, and he hurriedly pulled away, and the Heavenly Fire Meteor that surrounded everyone sensed the hostility of his master and attacked Thom from five different angles.
Thom wields a javelin and flies two Skyfire shuttles, and the other three shuttles hit the silver armor with sparks. Simon found that although Skyfire's attack had left several scratches on his armor, it was unable to penetrate the heavy defenses.
Simon summoned Skyfire to his side and turned it into a flying blade barrier, while Thom also stood in place, two javelins clenched tightly in his hands, and the two entered a state of confrontation for a moment.
"Go down, Vanessa, I can't promise I won't hurt you in this state."
Thom, who failed in the sneak attack, slowly staggered the javelin in his hand, and a dull voice came from the helmet.
"That's right, Vanessa, you go first, and I'll be there later."
Fearing Thom's devastating throwing attacks, Simon had no choice but to use Skyfire as a defense.
Vanessa felt a little overwhelmed, but at Simon's beckon, she chose to leave and go to the next level, she couldn't sit idly by and watch what was causing all this.
"Simon, you have to be careful."
Worried, Vanessa walked behind Thom alone and disappeared down the aisle.
"Hum hum hum ......"
Thom began to sneer, staring at Simon as if he were a dead man.
"What the hell do you think about not holding Vanessa hostage? The so-called monsters are either strong or cunning, and if a weak existence like you does not rely on intrigue and trickery, then how do you survive in this world? ”
"Monsters? Are your eyes broken? I am human. ”
Simon carefully kept his distance, for him who was defenseless at the moment, he would be hit hard with just one blow, and he had to be cautious.
"My eyes are so good that no normal person can survive after being pierced in the heart. In that moment I saw that you don't have a heart. You still say you're human? No kidding, you alien monster! ”
There was a suppressed excitement between the words, and Thom couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Haha, that's good, as my first battle after my freshmanship, it's great to take a monster as an opponent, and I'm going to give you a good look at the true power of the Brotherhood of Steel. Flesh withers, souls fall, and only steel can perpetuate. ”
"The monster with the mouth open and the monster with the mouth closed is annoying, don't treat anything as a monster, that will only expose your ignorance or fear."
Simon's gaze seemed to penetrate the armor to see into Thom's heart.
"People either worship or fear things that you can't understand, and it's sad that when you meet something stronger than you, you call it a monster, and there must be monsters everywhere in your small world. Please, don't impose your incompetence on your enemies, zombies, vampires, not even dragons don't call them monsters, they have their own names, your actions will only make people feel disgusting. If you want to win sympathy, please don't pretend to be pitiful in front of me, there are no eternally weak creatures in this world, and there are no eternally strong creatures, raise your head and face the enemy! If human beings are not strong, then how can they rule the world? No matter which world there is, there is a place for human beings, don't be presumptuous, human beings are strong! ”
In response to Simon's words, there were two bolts of lightning, which were javelins thrown by Tom, the lightning collided with the skyfire, and after a strong pop, the trajectory of the javelin was deflected, passing Simon, and the strong wind brought up by Simon was blowing Simon's hair.
"You don't know how we feel at all, your strength must have improved very quickly, you don't feel the despair that you can't progress no matter how hard you try, only the suffocation of being left in place! Most humans are just mortals, not heroes, we just want to live, and in order to survive, we can give anything, even if it is to sell our souls to demons! ”
Thom approached Simon like a cheetah, his movements unbelievably agile, and he saw nothing of the armor on his body. Tom ran so low that he was almost level with the ground, his strange balance kept his eerie posture alive, and two more javelins appeared in his hands, as if the beast had bared its fangs.
"Whether you admit it or not, it doesn't change the fact that you're a monster, just as I gave up my identity as a human being. Standing here are just two monsters, human ethics and morality do not apply to us, and everything is thrown aside, and there is only a fight between us. Get moving, use your teeth, claws, tail, magic, witchcraft, poison, anything, fight, kill, bathe in blood, eat flesh and bones! ”
Simon jumped into the air with a volley of flames, on the ground he couldn't escape Thom's eerie pursuit, but the sky was his home turf.
"You're crazy."
It's just stating the facts, at least that's what Simon thinks.
"You too! How dare you fly into the air in front of me! A live target! ”
Before Simon could comprehend Thom's roaring words, he saw what seemed to be a flower blooming in front of him, a death lotus made up of countless cold lights.
"How is this possible!"
Thom threw the javelin in succession with both hands, so fast that it produced a substantial afterimage, as if he had six arms, and a torrent of metal followed. With heavy pressure, a large number of needle-shaped javelins were thrown, but fortunately, Simon had a high degree of agility far beyond ordinary flight, he stepped on the flames in the void, constantly changing directions to dodge the cold light, and as for those who could not dodge, he relied on the sky fire to defend. In this way, the javelins that missed the shots smashed into the ceiling, the walls and the surrounding facilities, and the roar came one after another, and the whole space seemed to be plowed under Thom's seemingly tireless attack.
"That's an exaggeration."
A javelin nearly hit him in the eye, but luckily he turned his head in time, so he reluctantly took a few strands of hair and disappeared.
At this moment, Thom is like a machine gun in Simon's original world, but he fires a more terrifying needle-shaped javelin, even if the rate of fire is not as fast as those guns, it is still a terrifying killing machine in this world. What shocked Simon even more was that Thom's dazzling high-speed throwing showed not only ridiculously strong physical fitness, but also a real superb skill in it, which was a well-honed throwing technique, and he must have been a terrible fighter who was good at throwing before.
Sensing that Simon could not be helped, Thom stopped.
"If this can solve you, I will not be sure."
Thom's calm voice echoed through the empty ruins, and Simon could hear it, without a trace of respite in his voice. With such a seemingly drastic movement still being so easy, his subsequent attacks were bound to be even more intense.
As if to vent his impulses, Thom's voice became calmer and calmer, but this calmness contained a twisted madness, like a cold fire.
"That's the limit of what I used to be as a human being, because of the illusion created by the high-speed movement of my arms and the tower-like figure, people called me 'Six-Armed King Kong'. But they don't know that I don't like the nickname at all, Six-Armed? Hehe, no matter how much I exercise, I can't improve even a little bit of speed, and I wish I could become an eight-armed King Kong or better. But after all, this is just a dream, as I get older, there are more and more dark injuries on my body, and the six arms have become the peak state that I can't reach, which is really ridiculous. That's when I finally realized that this is the limit of being human, and it is also my limit. It can't be seen, it can't be touched, but it's real. This shackle confines everyone, and it's a nightmare for all.
But the great leader of the Brotherhood has finally given us a new lease of life, and I would rather die in battle than die of old age in my bed or at the hands of some filthy skeleton. Behold my perfect body now, I am one with my most beloved weapon, and from then on, I am the sharpest needle, the most violent rain! The six-armed King Kong is in the past, and now I am the 'rain devil' Thom! ”
The back of Rain Demon Tom's armor slowly opened like a piece of fish scales, and three pairs of alien arms stretched out from them, and the dark arms were wrapped with an ominous light, each arm was twice as long as a normal person, and it was very thin, like skin and bones. These misshapen arms are fully stretched out behind Thom, like eerie abstract paintings.
Coupled with Thom's original hands, a total of eight hands began to grow long silver needles, which made Simon's scalp tingle for a while.
"The rain is coming."
