Chapter 6: The Parasite

Feng Jing took the bow to block the parasite's blow, and the power from the bow shook her two arms numb, which was no longer a strength that ordinary people could have. Feng Jing's face was a little ugly, he didn't expect that the newly awakened parasite alone would be so difficult to deal with.

With a missed blow, the parasite shook its body and pressed towards Feng Jing again, the smell of fresh flesh making it restless, and it just wanted to swallow the food in front of it.

It is obviously impossible to use a bow and arrow at such a close distance, Feng Jing thought of the long knife he put away before going out, and as soon as his heart moved, the long knife glowing with cold light appeared in his hand. She raised her knife and slashed at the parasite's claws, the unhindered touch of slicing tofu stunned her.

The next scene I saw sent chills through my body: the parasite's claws separated from its arms and fell to the ground, instantly turning into nothingness, and the incision was smooth and smooth, as if the muscles and blood of the whole body had become solid. The parasite didn't react at all when his claws were cut off, and he didn't seem to even feel pain, and still pounced on Feng Jing, but his movement was a little slower. Within a minute, however, the pustule on the parasite's arm cracked, the incision in the wrist slowly squirmed, and the claws grew back again.

"The parasite will only die if the head is separated from the body, otherwise it will continue to regenerate. Please keep in mind the host. ”

Feng Jing tightened his hand holding the long knife, looked at the fully recovered parasite, pursed his lips, and had a plan in his heart. Seeing the parasite getting closer and closer, Feng Jing's heart beat violently, and she couldn't tell what it was like to be nervous? Afraid? Or is it exciting?

When the parasite was once again instinctively driven to attack her, Feng Jing squatted down violently, grasped the hilt of the knife with both hands, and slashed at the parasite's waist. Taking advantage of the parasite's loss of gravity, he dodged behind the parasite, and the long knife plunged straight into the parasite's neck, gently stirring, separating the head from the body.

The two corpses smashed to the ground, slowly turning into nothingness in the faint candlelight, leaving a spar in place.

Feng Jing's tense nerves relaxed suddenly, and his legs were weak and he almost fell to the ground. The slightest negligence in the action just now will cause the parasite's claws to directly scratch through the major arteries and become its food. His hands kept shaking, and Feng Jing couldn't tell whether it was because of nervousness or excitement.

The candles on the ground flickered, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, as if they were about to be extinguished. The insect tide in the darkness is about to move.

"A large number of parasites have been detected to be awakened, please leave the host as soon as possible."

Feng Jing didn't have time to rest, put away the spar, picked up the candle on the ground, found a direction and trotted away...

——————

Along the way, Feng Jing bypassed the hordes of parasites from afar under the warning of the system, but it was inevitable that he would encounter some wandering parasites. With the experience of one kill, the next kills are much easier.

She shook her numb arm, pulled a feathered arrow from the quiver, and rested it on the bow in her hand, the front sight slowly aiming at the parasite not far away. The bow slowly filled, and as soon as he let go, the feathered arrow pierced the parasite's neck with precision, pinning the parasite to the ground.

Looking at the parasite's body that no longer moved, Feng Jing suddenly had a habitual feeling in her heart, as if she had killed the parasite like this a long time ago, but it was more simple and rude, and she didn't need the assistance of a weapon.

"There are two more parasites at two o'clock, please don't get distracted." The gentle voice of the system pulled Feng Jing's thoughts back. Feng Jing shook his head a little drowsy, once a person is extremely tired, any hallucination will appear.

It was strange when the arrows were ready to kill the two parasites. The two parasites did not wander around standing upright like the others, but crouched on the ground and did not know what they were doing. After shooting two arrows to kill the two parasites perfectly, curiosity drove Feng Jing to find out.

She walked over with a candle, and before she could get to her, the strong smell of blood greeted her, even with a mask, Feng Jing felt a churn in her stomach, and she couldn't stop retching a few times.

Approaching, the candlelight illuminates the hellish scene. It can be vaguely identified from the skeleton and some fur on the ground, it is a litter of newborn kittens. It seemed to be a stray cat that had settled in the bushes, and the mother cat passed out somewhere, and the nine kittens were gnawed beyond recognition, and the bright red and sticky blood coagulated into black. The two hedrons glowed in blood.

Feng Jing couldn't tell what it felt, she didn't know when she became so indifferent, and even when she saw such a scene, her heart still had no waves. The last days are not only the last days for mankind, but also for all living things.

Feng Jing buried the corpses of the nine kittens in the bushes on the side, and she couldn't bear the thought that there might be other parasites coming to eat the kittens in the future.

Unexpectedly, she found a surviving kitten in the bushes, the kitten's breath was faint as if it was going to die in the next moment, and I am afraid that the breath of life was too weak for it to escape. Feng Jing carefully put the kitten into his pocket, adjusted the position to make sure it would not be pressed against it, identified the direction, and set off again.

The first big change

At 23:59 on the evening of October 31, 2050, the first great change began, and the end times came.

When Feng Jing returned home, the sky was already slightly bright, and it was about five o'clock in the morning. At this time, she was in a mess, with scratches on her face, arms, and thighs. Although there are systematic prompts on the way back, bypassing most of the parasites, the night city is the only way home.

The night city is almost full of parasites and severed limbs and stumps that have been eaten, and as far as the eye can see, there are parasites moving between the dense stalls. It was almost impossible for a person to break through, Feng Jing went to the side of the road to pick up a car, stepped on the accelerator to the end, and rushed directly towards the army of parasites.

Smelling the smell of fresh flesh, the parasite followed one after another, its sharp claws scratching at the outside of the car. When the parasite is knocked away, there are other parasites to fill the vacant slot. Blocked by parasites in front and pulled by parasites in the back, the car slowed down and finally stopped at the entrance to the night market.

The parasite banged frantically on the windows, cracks began to appear in the windows, and severe dents appeared in different parts of the body. Feng Jing was so nervous that his heart was about to jump out of his throat, and he felt a refreshing stimulation again. She opened the sunroof, climbed onto the roof of the car, and drew her long knife to clear out a wave of parasites.

I looked up at the canopy of the shop not far away and estimated the distance. The boots stomped on the roof of the car, and the crisp sound caused the parasite to stir again. Feng Jing started to run a few steps from the back of the car, jumped suddenly, and when he was about to fall in mid-air, a lighter appeared in his hand and threw it behind him.
