Chapter 89: The Texas Skinners (9)

"And what should you explain for what you just saw?" Lao Jia asked, "That monster is obviously a human form, right?" You say it's not a cat demon, so what is it? ”

Lu Xun thought for a few seconds and shook his head.

"It's not a cat demon, the cat demon is extremely greedy, if it's really a cat demon, it should have pounced on the ward just now."

Lu Xun held his pistol and searched along the corridor, and the strange man who had just opened the door disappeared in the blink of an eye, moving at a very alarming speed and leaving no trace.

There are only two types of human-like monsters in the database of the infected and hunters, one is the infected xenomorph cat demon, and the other is the predator Texas Skinner, but Lu Xun studied the illustrated book for a long time, and finally believed that the statement that the Texas Skinners were humanoid was misinformation, and mutating into a humanoid form had no advantage in survival, and the vast majority of mainstream predators were mutating in the direction of stronger strength, faster speed, and sharper minions, and their bodies were becoming more and more like big cats.

Originally, in nature, big cats were predators at the top of the food chain, and every part of their body was born to hunt.

Whether it's a normal creature or a mutated monster, this is all the same, so they all end up in the same place...... Nature has proven its successes, and the same applies to hunters.

If any hunters do mutate into human form, they will undoubtedly be ruthlessly eliminated by the brutal environment.

Human beings can stand on top of the world, relying on physical superiority, not imitating the human brain but imitating the human body, which is purely wrong with the evolutionary tree and skill points.

The Texas Skinners are the Sixty-Seven Marauders, one of the most powerful and fearsome hunters in the world, and they are supposed to be strong, ferocious carnivorous creatures like the Alaskan brown bear, with sharp teeth and quick movements, or a mammoth, a thick-skinned behemoth like a rhinoceros, so powerful and invulnerable that it could never be humanoid.

"To be honest, I don't know exactly what we just saw, it's not a cat demon, and it doesn't look like an infected." Lu Xun said, "You can't guess the result by blind guessing, unless we can catch it and kill it, let the director study it carefully, and then give a rigorous report." ”

There was a cold wind blowing from the front of the hallway, cool and swishing, and there was a window on the wall at the end of the hallway.

The windows were not closed, and the night breeze lifted the curtains.

Lu Xun suddenly stopped, slowly raised his pistol, and his body suddenly tensed.

"What's wrong?"

"Fishy smell......" Lu Xun sniffled and whispered, "There is a fishy smell in the wind." ”

"Fishy?" Lao Jia was stunned.

At that moment, Lu Xun understood where the other party was, no wonder the monster ran away without a trace in the blink of an eye, with a faint fishy smell in the cold wind flowing through the corridor, Lu Xun is very sensitive to this smell, many hunters have this smell, because most of the hunters have no fur on their bodies, their body surface will secrete mucus to keep the skin moist, this fishy smell is the smell of mucus.

The monster was right in front of Lu Xun, and the smell of its body was carried into the corridor by the wind.

"It was crawling on the outer wall by the window, and this thing should have jumped out of the window." Lu Xun tried his best to slow down, anyway, he can't walk fast in his current state, so it's better to simply walk slower and walk silently.

Lu Xun was ten meters away from the window at the end of the hallway, and as he got closer, he could even hear the thing's breathing.

"Be careful." Lao Jia reminded.

Lu Xun nodded.

He plans to strike first, shooting before the opponent attacks or escapes, preferably with a direct kill.

Although Lu Xun knew that the other party was climbing on the outer wall at the moment, there were exterior walls on the upper and lower sides of the window, and Lu Xun could not see the outside wall indoors, and the thing could climb on the left side of the window, or on the right side of the window, or above and below.

Once the prediction is wrong, then the land patrol will lose the opportunity.

Lu Xun approached step by step, and he heard the thing's breathing getting heavier and heavier, more and more rapid, and finally it sounded like pulling a bellows.

It was clear that the monster had sensed that the Land Patrol was approaching, and it was also gathering strength and adjusting its rhythm.

The two sides were getting closer, the distance was getting shorter and shorter, the atmosphere was slowly tense, and the monster crawling on the outer wall didn't seem to hide itself, I don't know if it was gathering strength or because of nervousness, its breathing was finally so loud that it was comparable to snoring, "Whoop-whoop-" The sound of the ground could be heard even by a deaf person.

Lu Xun was a little puzzled, how could a marauder make such a big movement when he was lurking? Aren't you afraid of alarming your prey? I'm afraid that the prey can't detect your movement from 800 miles away, and there must be a limit to adjusting your breathing and rhythm.

Are you a predator, more nervous than your prey?

At this level, can it survive until now?

When the distance was shortened to three meters, Lu Xun's footsteps were abrupt, he knew that the other party was accumulating strength, and the monster's strength and energy were gradually concentrating, just waiting for Lu Xun to go to the window, and then suddenly attack at the last moment, this is the usual trick of hunters when they ambush - although this fool is no longer an ambush, Lu Xun knows this very well, so he chooses to interrupt the opponent's momentum before it reaches its peak.

Suddenly he didn't go any further.

The other party increased his momentum according to the speed at which Lu Xun approached, and Lu Xun suddenly stopped, and the rhythm of the thing's accumulation of strength was slightly disrupted.

The tense atmosphere was abruptly broken.

In the next second, Lu Xun pounced forward and launched an attack when the opponent adjusted his rhythm and momentum! He had to stay in the hospital for another week with this pounce, and a piercing pain came up the nerves, but Lu Xun gritted his teeth and held back.

He is also a person who can endure hardships now, and ordinary minor injuries are not enough to get Lu Xun out of the line of fire.

But the speed of that thing was faster than him, and when Lu Xun rushed to the window and raised the muzzle of the gun, he could only see a white shadow climbing up the outer wall frantically, like a gecko, his movements were agile and flexible, and he got into the window of the upper floor in the blink of an eye.

Lu Xun was stunned for a moment.

Escape so fast.

It was the first time he had seen a hunter who had fled so decisively, and he didn't love fighting at all, and he just left.

Lu Xun turned around and chased after him, limping up the stairs with a gun, he couldn't allow this thing to stay in the hospital, Lu Xun didn't think about the leg injury or something, and he wanted to be crippled and amputated until he killed this thing.
