The middle-aged man sat down slowly with a shudder, and subconsciously raised his hand to caress the scar on his face, which stretched from the corner of his eye to his chin. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"You're trying to tell me...... There's a killer in the city, isn't it? ”

The Colonel was silent for a moment, then nodded, "We can't be sure exactly what kind of killer it is, it could be one of Sixty-Six through Sixty-Eight, or it could be a brand new killer we've never seen before." ”

"This thing...... How long have you known? The middle-aged man looked up and asked.

"Three years ago, when we first arrived." Sean got up and left his seat and stood in front of the map, "I realized early on that there was a very high predator entrenched on the other side of the river, so strong that other hunters and infected people did not dare to approach, so that the whole city was empty, just like hyenas and jackals did not dare to invade the territory of lions...... It stands at the top of the city's food chain and is the city's emperor. ”

The colonel stretched out his hand and drew a circle on the map on the opposite bank of the Huangpu River, near the Pudong New Area, encompassing a large area painted orange-red, which was about five or six kilometers in diameter according to the scale on the map.

"By chance, I found that this area is very clean, there are no infected or hunters, and all the surrounding creatures have deliberately avoided the range of movement here, and the creatures that inadvertently break in will also evacuate as quickly as possible...... If you aggregate the movements of the infected and the hunters and plot them on this map...... You'll notice that all traces will suddenly turn back as you get closer to the area, eventually forming a large blank circle. ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "Go on." ”

"I was disturbed by this phenomenon, and I realized that there was something unexpected, that it had made the whole area its territory like a wolf, and that it had left its own traces, and all the other hunters were scared away just by finding their traces." Sean took a deep breath, "So I decided to take a look for myself, I took a Remington M870 shotgun, piled up the back seat of the Humvee with spare magazines and anti-tank missiles, and drove in." ”

"Wait, wait...... How did I not know about this? The middle-aged man glared, "You actually drove so far away?" ”

"I remember that day you were so drunk that you slept from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. the next day."

The middle-aged man was dumbfounded.

"I didn't tell anyone about this, because there is no need to declare in advance, if I can come back alive, then everything will be normal in the safe zone, and if I can't come back......" the colonel paused, "I wrote a suicide note before leaving, and put it on my desk, which explained all the follow-up work of the academy and designated the next head of the safe zone...... That person is you. ”

The middle-aged man put his fingers in his hair, pulled out the roots of his hair vigorously, and was silent for a long time, "Can you change your style of acting first and then playing?" I only now know that you died three years ago and you almost didn't come back! ”

"I parked the Hummer in the parking lot downstairs of the World Financial Center, the building had collapsed at that time, only half of the ruins remained, and then I went down into the sewers with shotguns and individual missiles, I had scouted the terrain in that area in advance, there were many high-rise buildings nearby, I sneaked about three kilometers underground, and returned to the ground near the Lujiazui Business Plaza, and I set my initial target in the buildings around the square...... Because this is the center of this circular area. ”

Sean reached out and tapped the map.

"Then I started looking for traces of the activity of the large creatures, the area was very desolate and dead, there were no other hunters and infestation, so if there was any trace of the activity of something...... Then it must be the killer. ”

"What did you find?" The middle-aged man asked.

"I searched along the way, spent four hours, and found four o'clock in the afternoon from twelve o'clock in the afternoon, but found nothing." Sean continued, "I deliberately started my move around noon because the vast majority of hunters are inactive during the day, especially in the middle of the day, when the sun is at its highest, and the strong sunlight can cause the hunters to shrink into buildings...... But it was already dusk at four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was about to set, and it was too dangerous to continue the operation at night, so I decided to hide first and continue the search the next day...... But something happened that night. ”

The middle-aged man was stunned and pouted, "Old man, you are really a lone hero...... Have you eaten the rules against solo movement and unauthorized entry into buildings? ”

The colonel ignored him, "I was hiding in the stairwell on the ground floor of a residential building, and at about eight o'clock in the evening, I was taken aback by the sudden sound of violent collisions and sharp roars in the street outside the door...... There was no moonlight that night, the light was very dim, and I could faintly see something fighting two hundred meters away. ”

"Wrestling?" The middle-aged man was taken aback.

"Yes...... There was indeed a struggle, presumably a hunter who had strayed into the territory of the slayer. Sean nodded, "I can see the hunter clearly, and it looks like a large dog...... More likely, it was a giant wolf, like the demon Fenrir of Norse mythology, with a body length of more than three meters, no fur covered with scales, sharp bone spurs on its back, its whole body almost white, and its eyes glowing green in the dark. ”

"More than three meters long?" The middle-aged man thought for a moment, "This head is approaching the marauders, right?" ”

"A low-level marauder." "The combat power rating may be between 31 and 35, and even within the Hummingbird team, there are no more than three people who are really guaranteed to hunt it." ”

"What about its opponents?"

The colonel was silent for a moment and shook his head, "I didn't see it...... My view was blocked by a broken wall, and the thing was hidden behind the wall, untouched from beginning to end. ”

"Haven't moved?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and he didn't move from beginning to end...... How does this fight? Could it be a hunter with a special ability and telekinesis that can shoot cattle in the air?

"Yes, the marauder lunged at the other man, a tentacle...... No, it could have been a tail that popped out from behind the wall, and the thing rose in mid-air like a snake, flipped and bound the marauder, whose limbs and neck were tied to death, and could only let out a near-death wail. ”

"Tie up the marauder?" The middle-aged man glared, "That marauder is three meters long, right?" That's a few hundred kilograms...... What can tie the tail of such a monster? ”

"Then a second tail came out from behind the wall, and on the tip of the tail unfolded a long knife, the blade of which was a meter wide, and cut off the head of the marauder with a single blow."

"What?!"

"You asked me before, the injuries on the corpses brought back by Lei He and Luo Cheng are like someone using a super giant fire axe weighing 500 kilograms to slash that thing...... Do you know how that wound came about now? ”

The middle-aged man was dumbfounded.

"The marauder was killed instantly, the blood at the fracture splattered to a height of two meters, the headless corpse was caught behind the wall by that tail, I didn't dare to make a sound from beginning to end, I didn't dare to sleep all night, I held the shotgun until six o'clock the next morning, I got up in the morning to check the battlefield, and found a black blood stain that had been dragged into the residential area across the road, I immediately rushed back to the parking lot and fled all the way back." Sean said faintly, "Do you now know why I'm hiding that thing's existence?" The Slayer is a powerful monster that can kill a Marauder in an instant, and even the Hummingbird group can't be its opponent...... Announcing its existence would cause unnecessary panic, so as long as that thing doesn't threaten the safety of the Academy, I'll keep it hidden. ”

"And now?" The middle-aged man got up and patted the map on the wall, "Everything is messed up now, what's going on?" ”

The Colonel was silent, he slowly narrowed his eyes, "I don't know why, the killer started moving......"
