Chapter 33: The Night Attack
It was getting dark, and the street lights in the town center square were getting brighter.
I didn't see any monsters all afternoon, and although the people who were idle didn't say anything, they thought in their hearts that the so-called monsters were probably alarmist.
After all, even if there are really some biological weapons being developed inside the base, there won't be a lot of them, and if they really spread to the entire town, maybe they won't be lucky enough to encounter them.
It's like Norton, a black lawyer, who is already thinking in his mind that he really can't take a few people out with him tomorrow morning and drive out of this place.
Although the Interpol said that someone would come to the rescue, Norton felt that his fate was better in his own hands.
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
While everyone was whispering and studying what to do tomorrow, there was a sudden palpitating snapping sound outside the window.
Don't get me wrong, this is not the sound of a philosophy of life, but the sound of a large arthropod crawling onto a glass wall.
Originally, Li Qingyuan thought that as long as the glass was pasted with paper, he could avoid the harassment of those poisonous scorpions and flying insects, because those things seemed to be phototaxis.
But now it seems that it's not any bullshit phototaxis at all, it's because it's all over the place.
The poisonous scorpion flying insects are supposed to be somewhat similar to mosquitoes in human society, which only appear when it is completely dark, and as the bottom of the entire food chain, they are completely garbage that depends on quantity.
God knows how many poisonous scorpion flying insects there are!
"Ahh What kind of monster is this? ”
Someone shouted in surprise when he saw the terrifying flying insect lying on the glass wall from the lookout that was left behind.
Strange insects the size of an adult's palm were lying on the outer wall, and these strange insects looked a little like mutated giant dragonflies, but they had funny and terrifying heads.
The six tentacles have claws as sharp as mantis' scythes, and on their tails, they have some large killing weapons that resemble the tails of scorpions.
The vitality of this thing is actually very fragile, after all, it is only a mosquito-like lifeform, but for humans, it is a very deadly threat.
Seriously, Li Qingyuan would rather deal with the mantis troll alone than face a group of poisonous scorpions and flying insects.
You know, a mosquito bite will just make you pick up a bag, but if you bite this thing, you can basically report it to God.
The body is a hundred times larger than that of a mosquito, and the toxins are naturally more than a hundred times stronger.
"Is this the monster out there?" The black lawyer asked Li Qingyuan in a cold sweat, he was still thinking about how to take people out tomorrow, and now he was secretly glad that he did not make an arbitrary decision.
The observation windows left behind were limited, so everyone could only judge by the rustling sound coming from outside, but even if they couldn't see the scene outside, the neat rustling sound alone could make the dense fears faint.
"There are locusts coming out of the smoke, and the Lord has given them the power of scorpions!" Mrs. Carmody found a scented candle out of nowhere, held it in her hand, and said in a broken voice.
"Can't you just find a way to shut her up?" Ms. Amanda leaned over to Li Qingyuan's side and asked softly.
Mrs. Carmody is like a toad crawling on the surface of a person's feet, although it does not bite, but it is disgusting!
"I could have told her to shut up forever, but I don't think anyone in the supermarket would agree." Li Qingyuan helplessly spread his hands, if it was possible, he wanted to directly use thunder means to gather all the living forces in the entire supermarket, but he really couldn't do it!
He is now a little stronger than ordinary people, and although the ability of the Demolition Ghost Talent can give him a certain amount of self-protection strength, it cannot crush everyone in the entire supermarket.
Even if they use guns and explosives to make everyone temporarily submit, God knows if these guys will resist violently.
He was the only one who was shot while he was asleep at night, and that would be the end of it.
What's more, this mission is to save people and not kill people, if you really want to kill everyone, why did you come to this world by yourself?
"Do you often kill people in your mission?" Lady Amanda asked, sitting down next to him and biting his ear.
Not to mention, when a woman is next to your ear and talking, it really feels a little ticklish.
Li Qingyuan frowned, turned his head to look at Ms. Amanda, who was about to squeeze into his arms, and his heart was full of confusion.
Isn't this woman ambiguous with the protagonist in the movie? Why is there such a posture of preparing to post upside down?
When did your personality charm become so great?
It's a pity that the damn director was reluctant to spend money back then, resulting in all the passer-by actors being invited, and he really couldn't reach his aesthetic passing line.
The only appearance of the whole supermarket should be the cashier Sari, even if the other party has a square poker face, but it is better to be young and beautiful, plus the facial features are okay, barely reaching the standard line of beauty.
But Sally was now with her soldier's boyfriend, and the three soldiers, who had been severely reprimanded by the others in the afternoon, were now cowering in a corner and not daring to speak.
'Bang! ’
At this moment, there was a sudden violent banging sound on the window, which frightened everyone into shock.
The intensity of the sound sounded as if an adult was slamming the glass with all his might.
The glass in supermarkets is tempered glass, and adults would not want to break their heads even if they break them, but for skeleton birds that are predatoring outside, their physiology is much harder than that of humans.
If the poisonous scorpion flying insects are similar to the mosquitoes in the earth's biosphere, then the skeleton birds are somewhat like dragonflies, they specialize in feeding on poisonous scorpion flying insects, because they can't afford anything else!
Scorpion flies are densely packed throughout the town, so these skeleton birds start to hunt at night.
The skeleton bird hunts by diving directly from the air, rushing at the scorpion and flying insects, and then pecking them directly into the mouth with its sharp mouthparts that resemble a pterodactyl.
Anyway, the skull bird's breath is extremely hard, and it usually doesn't hurt even if it hits a rock, so they don't care what they peck.
If it is a concrete wall, then at most it will be pecked in the surface, but for the glass pane of the supermarket, every time the skeleton bird pecks, a new crack will be produced in the glass.
The people in the supermarket couldn't see what was happening outside, and could only watch as cracks appeared on the glass wall, and the broken glass was covered by the transparent tape glued to it, thus forming a mysterious bulge.
