Chapter 30: Monsters and Humans

The birdseller fell from a great height, but luckily did not die.

But he soon found that he might as well fall to his death, at least without seeing the terrifying scene in front of him.

The otherworldly tentacles wriggled into Scarlosh's body, and the docile pack beast screamed, its whole body twitching, its heavy fur undulating, and dissolved organic matter flowing through it like amniotic fluid.

Those tentacles emitted a vicious purple light, constantly infusing Skarosh with void energy. In the midst of the dissolution and reorganization of matter, tangible energy escapes and spreads to the caged bird.

In the blink of an eye, the sand falcon became a skeleton, and on this basis, it became alienated.

The golden feather was gone, replaced by a vertical eye in the middle of the skull. The lower beak is extended, the beak is like a comb, and the feathers of the wings grow back, but they become a pitch-black color that seems to swallow the light.

Watching the metal birdcage bend and deform under the strange force of the blackbird, the birdseller finally realized that the disaster was coming, and in a panic found a tunnel and rushed in.

……

When the hunt resumed, Kane took Kesha's hand.

Not to mention brown sugar water underground, he can't even find boiling water. All he can give is to hold hands on the basis of companionship.

Besides, the menstrual period is not the same as being sealed.

For a transcendent person like Kesha, the physical impact is minimal, mainly due to the change of mentality, and it is inevitable that he will be slack off than usual.

There was a resistance in her arm, and Keisha suddenly stopped again, and Kane turned back to her and asked:

"Is your stomach upset again?"

"No......" Keisha voiced through her helmet, "Do you smell anything?" ”

"Taste?" Kane put on his helmet, and a trace of smell in the air was captured and analyzed by the skin armor, evoking distant memories.

This is......

The smell of fear!

"There's another living creature under the ground." Keisha said.

Kane's expression hidden under the helmet was not good, he didn't want to touch the living creatures on the ground now, but only high-IQ creatures could smell of fear.

And judging from the intensity of the fear, it is likely that this living creature is a human being, and only human emotions are rich enough to exude such a strong sense of fear.

"Let's go check it out." Keisha set off without saying a word, not giving Kane the slightest chance to quibble.

Looking at her back as she quickly moved away, Kane had to try to keep up as closely as he could.

The Void Armor undulated on Keisha's body, forever eager to eat and hunt, and she regarded this impulse as an instinct to find life. She ran through the tunnel, quickly approaching her target.

At the end of the tunnel where Keisha was, the bird seller scrambled for his might, his eyes filled with incomprehensible horror.

Behind him were several strange birds mutated from the sand falcon.

They flapped their black wings and chased after them like death. The narrow three eyes have lost their keen highlights, and have been replaced by a clear malice.

"Holy, I shouldn't have cut corners!"

These falcons were supposed to be taken to the bazaar by him for a handsome sum of money, but now they were all man-eating monsters flapping their wings in the darkness and screaming to eat him!

"Nasus bless, let me go back alive!"

The threat of death brings the birdseller to the brink of mental breakdown, but the real nightmare of despair lies ahead.

The indentations in the rock walls on either side of the tunnel glowed with an eternal purple light, reflecting the silhouette of a monster that flashed in the darkness ahead.

Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the dilemma crushed his spirit, and his consciousness collapsed and his soul returned to the world.

The bird dealer gave off on his feet and fell on the rocky ground.

The pain made him feel aliveβ€”the sharp pain pulled his soul back into his body, and his dilated eyes saw through the darkness.

The terrifying glimpse in front of him squeezed the air in front of him with an unimaginable approach. The strong wind it blew made the bird dealer unable to open his eyes, and he thought that he would just close his eyes and wait for death.

But unexpectedly, the figure didn't hurt him, but passed past him, and then crouched down behind him and braked sharply.

It leaned down, the nail plates firmly held on its shoulders distorted, and the glowing pods cracked open, and a blinding light shot out from within, aiming at the attacking birds.

In Keisha's field of vision, the three strange birds that melted into the darkness showed red patterns, which could be distinguished and locked at a glance.

With a shout, a round of swirling and flying light bullets struck at the creatures with searing destruction.

Woohoo!

The missile pinpointed the three strange birds, knocking them down in a burst of purple light, shattering them into a pool of unspeakable strange flesh and blood, and even the heart was blown up, leaving only a few black feathers that were still intact to slowly fall.

After solving the threat, Keisha approached the birdseller.

When the bird dealer saw that she had killed the strange bird so easily, he screamed like a cat with its tail stepped on:

"Don't! Stay back! ”

Keisha was stunned for a moment, thinking that maybe she looked too scary, so she took off her helmet.

"Here, it is useless to plead. If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn't even know it was me. ”

She held out her hand to the birdseller, no ...... It should be said that it is a claw, which wants to lift it from the ground.

"Blame... Monster! Don't come here! ”

But as if he had not listened to her, the bird seller hurriedly took out a dagger and pointed it at her, and crawled back frantically with tears of fear, trying to get away from her, and was extremely embarrassed.

"Don't look at me with a void skin, but I'm just like you on the inside, I'm human." Keisha frowned deeply and explained: "The Void gives people a thousand ways to die, but there is only one way to live, and that is to become one of them, and I have no way to ......"

No matter how Keisha explained, the human in front of her, who had lost her mind because of fear, kept muttering the word monster in her mouth, each time like a steel needle driven into her soft heart.

"I'm not a monster!" The unreasonable misunderstanding made Keisha, who was already full of expectations, even more angry.

As if sensing that the other party could not see her human face clearly in the darkness, Keisha deliberately made the shoulder pod glow more intensely to illuminate her face.

But in the birdseller's opinion, it turned into Keisha about to shoot a burst of light to kill him, so frightened that he directly raised his arm to cover his eyes.

In this moment, Keisha remembered what Kane had said - human beings are always full of prejudices, and only want to believe what they see and take it as the truth.

The person in front of him only saw her monstrous appearance, ignoring the human part of her.

It's for prejudice.

And she naively believes that people outside will understand her and can communicate normally.

It's also prejudice.

Roar –

A beastly roar came from behind her, and Keisha had to turn her attention away from the birdseller and turn behind her.
