Chapter 24: Monsters

In the dimly lit room, a candlelight flickered, and Shiro sat on a chair made of wooden planks spliced together, looked at the big Jack sitting on the plank bed, and said, "Then what are you going to tell me?" ”

Big Jack is the same diner from before!

When he was in the restaurant, Bai didn't observe him carefully, but now he found that he wrapped himself tightly, and he didn't know if it was cold or what?

There was a faint smell from his body, and I don't know how long he hadn't taken a shower!

The sloppy label was slapped on him in vain!

Immediately, Shiro lost the idea of continuing to observe him!

"There are monsters in the back mountains of our town!" Big Jack's tone was filled with fear, and his body trembled a little.

"Monsters?" This word made Bai's eyelids jump slightly.

The appearance of this word means that there are fantasy elements in this copy, whether it is science fiction or fantasy!

Now because of the times, his strongest means of attack, the pistol, has been weakened a lot!

It should be barely possible to deal with ordinary people, but if it is used to deal with those inhuman monsters, there is really no bottom in Bai Xin!

"That's right! It's a monster! Big Jack recalled, the panic on his face did not disappear, "Just two days ago, because there have been many disappearances in our town recently, and the time of disappearance is at night, and the people in the town are panicked, and no one dares to leave the house at night, and a few young people in our town discussed it, and today we will go back and prepare to prepare, and go out on a cloudy day to find out the legendary monster ......"

It was about two days ago, and the next day Big Jack and a few of the young men in the town went to the mountains to find the monster and kill it!

As for why you want to go to the mountains, it's because someone found that those monsters ran out of the mountains, and the monster gate only came to the town at night, and returned to the mountains during the day!

But in order to attract the attention of the girl he has a crush on, Big Jack didn't go into the mountain the next day as agreed, but prepared everything with his younger brother Little Jack on the night of the same day, ready to enter the back mountain to look for monsters!

Little Jack seems to have more talent as a hunter, and it doesn't take long for him to sense that someone is following them after he goes out, and Little Jack starts to think it's his delusion, but after they get out of town, that feeling is even more sinister!

So he told his brother Big Jack about it, and even thought of the fierce monsters that had been rumored in the town in the last few days!

But as an elder brother, Dajie didn't take it seriously, thinking that Little Jack was too scared and wanted to find an excuse to go back, so Da Jack didn't pay attention to him!

"It's all because I didn't pay attention to it at the time, otherwise, Little Jack wouldn't have ......" said this, Big Jack blamed himself.

Bai didn't say anything about this, and waited silently for the following!

As he went deeper and deeper into the back mountain, Little Jack's expression became more and more wrong, Big Jack also had some panic when he saw this, Little Jack proposed the idea of going home, but Big Jack did not agree, he had already come, if he went back now, he didn't know how to laugh at them after those people knew, so Little Jack could only follow Big Jack and continue to go deep into the mountains!

It is impossible to have monsters in the shallow mountains, because their town has already organized people to search, but they have found nothing, and they don't have so many people to search deeper places, so they have to give up!

Therefore, the two Jack brothers did not search in the shallow mountains, but went directly to the deep mountains!

However, before they could get out of the shallow mountain area, they encountered monsters!

"So do you see the monsters clearly?" Hearing this, Bai asked.

"See!" As if thinking of something even more terrifying, the expression on Big Jack's face distorted slightly, "These are the missing people!" ”

"People?" Hearing this, Bai was a little inexplicable, how did people become monsters!

"Nope! They're not human anymore! It's a monster! Big Jack's voice trembled, full of horror, and even the look in his eyes was faintly crazy, "Is it human that is rotten all over the body and smells foul, and can still move?" ”

After hearing Big Jack's description of the monster, a solemn expression slowly appeared on his face!

Undead!

This word suddenly popped up in Shiro's mind!

This is the knowledge he has learned in reality, and Bai remembers that he has introduced a similar introduction in the [Magical Creatures Illustrated Book II]!

It's just that according to Big Jack's description, Bai can't be sure whether what he encountered was a [carrion] or a [living dead]!

These two types of undead look similar on the outside, but the only difference is that one is an unintelligent monster and the other is a wise monster!

But either way, it's not good news for Shiro, because they're all undead!

The undead are a branch of the undead species, they have a very strong immortality, they have the ability to resist most physical attacks, and they will not die if they do not use the attribute of mutual restraint or attack a specific part!

Even the lowest undead, such as rotting corpses and the living dead!

And Bai's only means of attack are daggers and pistols, and the power of the pistol has been weakened by half, and the dagger is also because of his body, it is impossible to exert much attack power, and it is not even better than the weakened pistol!

However, no matter what kind of weapon it is, the damage to the undead is not particularly ideal!

"If only the power of the guns wasn't weakened!" Thinking of this, Bai couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

If the power of the guns is not weakened, then Bai still has some confidence, because whether it is a rotting corpse or a living dead, their weakness is their heads, as long as their heads are blown up, after all, they are only the lowest level of undead!

And now the weakened pistol is not sure whether it can penetrate the skull!

"And then?" Bai asked.

No matter how distressed he is, it's useless, since he has come, he can only face it!

"Those monsters attacked us! We frantically resisted, but the shotguns in our hands had no effect on them at all! In the end, my little brother Little Jack was captured! And I was lucky enough to escape! Big Jack grabbed his hair hard, his tone full of panic and self-blame.

"Arrested? They're arresting? Are you sure you read that right? Bai was a little puzzled, whether it was a rotting corpse or a living dead, they didn't have the habit of catching a living person, if they were killed directly or swallowed alive, then Bai still felt normal!

"Yes! They're grabbing people! I saw it when I fled, and they took little Jack and didn't kill him, at least not then! Big Jack replied!

"Yes! I know! This is considered a reward! Seeing that Big Jack didn't have any useful information, Bai stood up, took out a game coin and put it on the table next to him, and was about to turn around and leave!

"Wait!" At this time, Big Jack suddenly stopped Bai, "I don't want your money!" ”

Hearing this, Bai turned his head with some confusion and looked at him.

"If you're going to find a monster, I want to save my brother! If only he were alive! Big Jack prayed.

And in Bai's mind, there was a prompt sound of the system!

[Discover the side quest!] 】

[Side Quest: Big Jack's Request!] 】

[Side quest introduction: While you are investigating, Big Jack, a resident of the town, provides you with quite important information, but he hopes that you can save his younger brother Little Jack!] 】

[Do you accept this side quest?] 】

Bai chose to accept it without hesitation!

"I'll keep an eye on it!" After saying a word, he left directly.

"Thank you......" Big Jack looked at Bai's back, as if he had finally let go of something, he collapsed to the side and fainted.

After leaving Big Jack's house, Shiro found out that it was already night!

The moonlight sprinkled down and covered the whole town with a layer of silver frost!

By the light of the moon, Shiro could barely see the situation not far away!

At night, the town is exceptionally quiet, walking on the street, you can only hear your own footsteps, the doors of the shops and residents on both sides are closed, and the windows are not shining, and the whole neighborhood gives people a strange feeling!

As he walked, Shiro suddenly stopped, because his instincts told him that something was eyeing him!

Bai began to look around, the level of the [Observation] skill was not high, but it still improved his observation power a lot!

He looked around closely, trying to find out something!

Shiro is slowly spinning in place!

Once, twice!

And it was the third time he noticed that something was wrong!

He found that in the corners of those houses, there seemed to be something there!

Because some of the shadows there are very unnatural!

After counting them carefully, Bai found that there were 3 places that were unnatural, which meant that there were at least 3 carrion corpses or living dead!

Under Shiro's gaze, the undead seemed to know that they had been discovered, so they all walked out of the corner!

Seeing this, Bai immediately opened the insurance in addition to the pistol!

"The Living Dead!" This is the word that pops into Shiro's mind the first time he sees this situation!

Because they show corresponding wisdom!

Suddenly let the white alarm omen come to life, the living dead are much more difficult to deal with than the rotting corpse!

By the time Shiro raised his pistol to aim, the living dead had already surrounded him!

Bai didn't think much about it, and aimed directly at one of the pulled triggers, and the gunshots rang out throughout the street!

"Smash!" A tongue-smacking sound full of dissatisfaction sounded, it was a sound made in vain, for he found that although he had hit the living dead directly, it had missed, only hitting it in the shoulder, knocking it back a little!

And at this moment, the other two living dead were already close, and the four claws had already reached in front of them, and they were about to catch Shiro!

At this moment, Shiro began to twist his body, dodging one of the claws as much as possible, and at the same time flicked his right hand holding the pistol and smashed it at the head of the other living dead!

Luckily, Bai dodged the claws of one of the living dead, and the other was also hit, but because Bai's body couldn't exert its due strength at all, it didn't cause any damage to it at all, just beat the living dead for a moment!

This made Bai feel helpless and powerless!
