Chapter 4: Night Returns
In Zheng Yanyi's room, the firelight flickered on and off, and in the palm of Zheng Yanyi's right hand, a flame kept beating, and the firelight reflected his shadow on the wall, and the shadow continued to twist with the flames, like a demon.
He clenched his fist, and the flame vanished, and he looked at his body instead.
It turned out that when I was fighting with the monster, the broken left hand is now intact, and the wound on the thigh that was originally scratched by the monster and even the white bones are clearly visible, but now it has completely healed, and there is not even a scar, as if it has never been injured.
He stood up, carefully feeling the lightness coming from his body, although he didn't use it, he already knew that his body could burst out with power far beyond ordinary people. Faintly, there was a strange energy converging in his body.
The streets are no longer as prosperous as they used to be, and the stone statues of monsters occupy the city, and the original owners are driven into the house like rats.
At Professor Lin's house, father and son rarely had a meal together, using the food they brought out of the roadside supermarket today.
"Eat more meat, son." Professor Lin sandwiched large chunks of meat into Yunyu Mountain's bowl.
Yun Yushan passively accepted, of course he didn't tell his father that he didn't like to eat fatty meat, although it was a little difficult to swallow, but he was still quite happy in his heart.
After eating, the father and son sat on the sofa and began to talk after dinner for the first time in their lives.
“……”
"Dad, how did you meet Mom?"
"I... I was a school grass when I was in college," Professor Lin took a sip of beer and continued, "At that time, your mother saw that I was handsome, and chased after me. ”
"Jing can brag, but my mother told me that you chased her."
"Bragging?" Professor Lin hurriedly ran into the bedroom, took out a family photo, pointed to himself at that time and said, "See, when your father was young, he was handsome!" ”
Professor Lin looked proud and said, "At that time, there were really a lot of girls who were jealous of me, and I only fell in love with your mother." ”
"Why?"
"Why? First of all, people are good-looking...... Still... Also ......"
Yun Yushan watched his father, whose face was flushed, lying on the sofa and falling asleep. So he went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks for dinner, and when he finished cleaning up, he sat on the sofa again, and found that his father actually said in his dream: "Yunzhu, Yunzhu ......"
Little by little, the afterglow of the sun disappeared, and when the last rays of sunlight disappeared from the earth, "click, click", the sound of stones falling to the ground sounded, and the night was about to fall again.
Zheng Yanyi stood on the balcony of his house, where there were obvious traces of flames. Thinking back to yesterday, I was talking and laughing with my parents, and my mother was still concerned about my grades, but I always thought my mother was verbose......
"It's all these monsters!"
Zheng Yanyi raised his right hand, his five fingers spread, and a huge flame that was far hotter than just now burned in his palm. Soon, he put away the flames and went out dressed in black.
This time there was no one in the streets at night, and the monsters roamed in droves, so it was not uncommon to see two or three monsters scuffling together, and the winner smashing the loser's head and then starting to devour. The monsters became stronger and stronger after devouring their kind, and even became more agile in their movements.
These monsters are not all humans, at the moment there is a four-limbed monster running between the buildings in the community, from the characteristics of its mouth protrusion, it is not difficult to see that this monster is a mutation of dogs.
The canine-like monster seemed to smell something and looked up at the tall building.
The monster bent its limbs into a charged position, and then kicked its hind legs violently, and its body was as fast as a bullet, smashing through the balcony glass of a high-rise house.
In the quiet of the night, a husband and wife protected their child in the middle, and the child slept very soundly, but the husband and wife did not feel sleepy at all.
Suddenly, there was a sound of glass shattering.
The husband and wife didn't dare to come out, and the wife held her daughter tightly in her husband's arms, and even the quilt was over her head.
Don't be a monster! Whether it's a wild cat or a bird, don't be a monster!
The husband and wife's breathing became heavier and heavier, and they had to lift the quilt for ventilation because they were so uncomfortable in the quilt that they carefully put the quilt back on, but it didn't take long for them to breathe again, and the daughter was woken up.
"Mom, you guys,"
The woman immediately covered her daughter's mouth and motioned her daughter to keep quiet, and the daughter was very cooperative with her mother, and at this moment the husband could almost hear the heartbeat of the three.
But it was too late, and with a "bang", the bedroom door was rushed out of a big hole, and a monster as strong as a tiger, shaped like a demon dog, rushed in and opened its bloody mouth at the three of them.
"Ah~"
A shrill cry pierced the night sky of the neighborhood, and many wandering monsters were attracted to it.
A black shadow is very special in it, it is Zheng Yanyi, who has just gone out, originally planned to use his awakened superpowers to hunt monsters, but when he went out and saw the dense stone statues outside, Zheng Yanyi flinched, he recalled the horror of the monster yesterday, killing that kind of monster once is probably a fluke in luck, even if he has the superpower now, but when facing so many monsters, he still can't stop being afraid.
Zheng Yanyi chose to avoid the monster group and look for lone monsters to hunt.
Zheng Yanyi, who had just stood on the treetops to observe the situation, heard a scream before he could find his target.
Searching for the source of the sound, Zheng Yanyi saw that there were already two monsters climbing upward, compared to most of the monsters still lingering at the bottom of the building.
Zheng Yanyi didn't wait any longer, jumped off the tree and ran towards the source of the sound, and there were some monsters around him staring at him, but unfortunately the speed was not fast enough to reach him at all.
But even with his speed, he could only watch the two monsters crawl into the house at the moment.
At this time, Zheng Yanyi suddenly had an idea, jumped up with all his strength, and jumped into the air seven or eight meters over, and then his body began to fall, but his palms went down, and the flames in his palms exploded, and Zheng Yanyi also gained a strong thrust and flew directly into the house.
After coming in, the monsters in the shape of a dog and two people were fighting each other in a triangular situation, Zheng Yanyi broke in, and immediately called the three monsters to the outside world.
The claws of the two humanoid monsters broke through the wind towards Zheng Yanyi's head, he quickly bent down to dodge, and immediately saw the dog monster rushing towards him, Zheng Yanyi suddenly spewed flames from his back, helping his body recover quickly, and then raised his hands, caught the front paws of the dog monster, and then spewed out a white flame at the head of the dog monster, all this happened only between the lightning and flint, and the dog monster was burned to death by Zheng Yanyi's flames.
Looking back, the two humanoid monsters had already attacked him one by one, Zheng Yanyi had no choice but to make a hard connection, and was directly knocked to the other side of the living room, and the two monsters followed closely, wanting to kill him, but Zheng Yanyi seemed to be a natural combat wizard, but in this case, he still did not panic.
I saw that two long flames erupted from his hands, like sharp swords, and the moment before the monster's claws were about to slash his head, he immediately turned sideways to avoid this fatal blow, and the two monsters embedded their hands in the wall, Zheng Yanyi saw the opportunity, and the two flame swords fused the neck of a monster.
Just as he was about to deal with the second monster, the monster had already broken free, and in desperation, Zheng Yanyi had no choice but to change direction and scuffle with the monster on the ground.
At this moment, Zheng Yanyi and the monster couldn't move, but Zheng Yanyi already felt that the energy in his body was about to be exhausted, this was a dead end!
