Chapter Eighty-Nine: Hunt and Trap
"Hurry up! Something is in! The thing retreated as soon as it struck, Du Jiujiu shouted, and chased the knife in the direction it retreated.
Su Xiaohan was also completely awake at this time, his night vision ability was very different from Du Jiujiu, in this dark environment where he couldn't see his five fingers, he couldn't catch any abnormalities with his naked eyes alone.
But fortunately, after a period of rest, most of the energy in Su Xiaohan's body had recovered, he calmed down and mobilized the energy in his body, and in an instant, the air flow around him was reflected in his mind.
"Jiujiu, behind your right!" Su Xiaohan hurriedly snorted after discovering this uninvited guest.
Hearing this, Du Jiujiu turned around suddenly, and the long knife swept away with lightning speed.
Sure enough, as Su Xiaohan said, there was a black shadow standing where the long knife was cut, and Du Jiujiu couldn't see its specific appearance clearly, but could only roughly see its outline - walking upright like a human, but dragging a long tail behind him.
The creature was so swift that it leapt backwards with a backflip before the knife could get close.
But in the blink of an eye, it dodged between the rows of shelves and disappeared again.
"What is this?" Du Jiujiu secretly doubted in his heart, lifted the long knife and turned to follow it into the shelves.
Su Xiaohan wanted to capture its location again through the air current, but the layers of shelves seriously interfered with the use of his ability.
After a slight attempt, Su Xiaohan immediately gave up this method, and instead mobilized the air flow around him, flew up, and pointed one foot on the shelf, once Du Jiujiu found the trace of the creature, he could immediately support.
Du Jiujiu put the long knife across his chest, slowly walked between the shelves on both sides, his steps were very light, and he listened to the movements around him.
The creature walked on the hard ground without making a sound.
At that moment of fighting, Du Jiujiu only felt that the creature gave him a familiar feeling. But based on the momentary sensation, I can't remember where I saw it.
After learning that there is a creature lurking around that wants their lives, the empty supermarket suddenly becomes even more terrifying.
The darkness was like a monster staring at them, its claws and fangs reaching out to their throats at any moment.
The muscles in Du Jiujiu's body remained tense at all times, ready to respond to attacks that might come from any direction.
Although the creature seemed to have disappeared suddenly, I didn't feel its breath at all.
However, Du Jiujiu clearly knew that it was still lurking in this vicinity, because the feeling of danger was still hovering in her heart, and it had not been able to dissipate for a long time.
When Du Jiujiu slowly walked to the middle of the shelf, the shelf full of various glasses on one side suddenly poured towards her rapidly.
Du Jiujiu's heart jumped suddenly, and he hurriedly stretched out his arm to resist.
Hundreds of pounds of iron slammed into her arm, and along with the glass that fell from it, it rolled to the ground and fell to pieces after smashing on her body.
Du Jiujiu ignored the pain in his arm, and quickly swept his gaze around.
As expected, the black shadow was coming at her at a very tricky angle in the dead end of her vision.
Du Jiujiu smashed her shelf with one hand at this time, and only the right hand holding the long knife could fight back.
The creature seemed to see her predicament, and the attack was on the right side of the rib that she could not take care of.
At this critical juncture, a series of wind blades suddenly shot from above the shelf where Su Xiaohan was standing, and the target was the black shadow that had already approached Du Jiujiu's body.
The black shadow didn't expect the two of them to have such a strange attack, and he couldn't dodge for a while, and was hit by the first sharp wind blade on his left shoulder, and immediately let out a miserable howl.
The voice was sharp and hoarse, not like a human voice, but not like any animal cry they had ever heard, very frightening.
However, the creature was also very intuitive, and after seeing the methods of the wind blade, it easily dodged the wind blade that attacked it again.
But that's enough.
While the black shadow was busy dodging Su Xiaohan's wind blade, Du Jiujiu used his arms to push the hundreds of catties of shelves to the other side of the aisle.
With a loud bang, shattered pieces of glass scattered all over the floor.
Du Jiujiu's left arm was pressed into a deep wound by the sharp metal baffle on the shelf, and warm blood continued to seep out of it.
She wiped the blood from her arm, and the anger in her eyes was now solid.
The black shadow didn't seem to want to confront Du Jiujiu head-on, and when he saw her escape from under the shelf, he immediately jumped backwards, turned his head and ran.
Where would Du Jiujiu give it another chance to escape, and his legs suddenly exerted force. With all his strength, the speed was even faster than that agile black shadow.
However, this black shadow is really cunning and tight, and whenever Du Jiujiu wants to catch up with it, she will quickly turn around and hide between the shelves.
After a few turns, the distance between it and Du Jiujiu was reopened.
"Jiujiu!" Su Xiaohan saw that Du Jiujiu was in a stalemate with it, and suddenly let out a low voice, as if he wanted to say something to her.
Du Jiujiu thought for a moment and understood Su Xiaohan's intentions, this thing's movements were amazingly fast, and whenever he was about to be caught, he could always find a chance to escape.
It's better to force it in Su Xiaohan's direction by yourself, once it enters his ability, then it will be easy to catch it again.
From his own understanding of Su Xiaohan, the radius of his ability range is at least ten meters.
Although this creature was agile and refused to let the two of them get close, the distance of ten meters was still easy for it to step into.
Thinking of this, Du Jiujiu turned his steps and hurried to the other end of the shelf to intercept the black shadow.
The black shadow saw that Du Jiujiu had run in front of him, and hurriedly turned around and ran backwards.
"That's it!" Seeing the black shadow react like this, Du Jiujiu's heart suddenly relaxed. Then they began to surround it in the same way.
It wasn't until this black shadow was about to approach Su Xiaohan's ability that he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
But how could Su Xiaohan, who had been waiting for a long time, let it escape, when it rushed from the opposite side.
As his palms gripped tightly, the position of the black shadow was firmly imprisoned by him with the air current.
It struggled desperately to escape, but its strength was not enough to break through the confinement, and after Su Xiaohan clenched his palm again, the black shadow could no longer move.
"You catch it first, I'm going to see what it is, so daring." Seeing that it was captured, Du Jiujiu said while taking a dead flashlight and replacing it with batteries.
When the light of the flashlight shone on its face, Du Jiujiu instantly showed a look of astonishment.
