Chapter 82: The Texas Skinners (2)
According to the latest records, there are seventy-one hunters, of which forty-three are lurkers, numbered 1 to 43, 24 are marauders, numbered from 44 to 67, and four are killed, numbered 68 to 71.
With the exception of the Alien Queen, the Siren, Argos, and the Tree of Faces, the Marauders are already the most dangerous and powerful creatures among the hunters, starting with Forty-Four and going all the way up to Sixty-Seven, any of these twenty-three types of monsters are extremely terrifying monsters, and in the past few decades, if the safe zone is attacked by Marauders, the consequences can range from heavy casualties to complete annihilation.
That is, the security zone of the Shanghai Naval Military Academy led by Maxwell Sean can be so strong, it has been attacked and invaded several times over the years, from marauders to killers to kings, and it still stands.
But this is undoubtedly the blood and life of many victims in exchange, not some God-blessed luck. Despite the big waves, the safety zone is still a flat boat drifting with the waves in the stormy waves, this essence will not change, a little careless, the old driver overturned.
So Maxwell Sean has been cautious.
Gene Plasmids, once a global bioengineering business giant, has established a hunter database, which contains all the currently known hunter information, which is currently the largest and most complete database in the world.
Even in this set of databases, the information of the vast majority of hunters is incomplete, the lower the more common the hunter information, the more abundant the information of hunters, Lu Xun has a large illustrated book, thicker than a dictionary, eighty percent of the content is lurkers, the number of types of predators is twenty-four, but their information together is not even as much as a low-level lurker.
For example, the Marauder "Vampire Throat", numbered Fifty-Five, is a fairly high-level monster among hunters, appearing only six times in history, and its entire information is only two pages long.
Further up to the fifty-sixth, the marauder "The Lich", the information is even less than a pitiful few paragraphs, most of which are inferences, plus a rough sketch, "There are only two surviving witnesses to this type of marauder, and the relevant information is extremely scarce."
The reason why people know so little about marauders, the rarity of these monsters is one reason, another important reason is that it is difficult for people to get the corpses of marauders, marauders die without knowing where they died, if the academy can get the corpses of certain types of marauders, then Ariana can count how many pores there are in that thing.
Hunters have always been secretive and terrifying, and people keep them secret.
But there is one exception.
After the collapse of civilization, many traditional human cultures have been lost, and the old people may remember the myths and legends of the past, but the children born after the end of the era are quite unfamiliar with Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales Grimm's fairy tales and Aesop's fables.
In a post-apocalyptic world, newborn children grow up in a new culture – they still listen to stories from their elders, but instead of Prince Quest and Dragon Quest saving the princess, the heroic Marines defeat terrifying marauders and rescue survivors...... In all these bizarre folklore, there is a class of marauders who often take on the role of villains.
It's like the witch in Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale, Gargamel in the Smurfs, and the bald head in the bear infested.
That weird guy is the "Texas Skinner".

Belle has heard this name, Luo Cheng has heard this name, Reich has also heard this name, and the term "Texas Skinner" often appears on the following occasions:
"If you cry again, the Texas skinners will come and take you!"
"Babies don't cry or cry...... There's a Texas skinner right outside the door! ”
I have to admit that the Texas Skinners are indeed the most well-known species of all hunters, and they often make cameo appearances in various stories, and the name alone can stop children crying at night, as if this ghost thing is distributed all over the world, and there is its shadow everywhere. In those strange stories that have been passed down by word of mouth, the Texas skinners are described in various ways, such as the three-headed and six-armed weirdos, who specialize in catching children to eat, or the skinless, bloody man who walks out of the moonless night, but no matter what kind of image, one thing remains the same, that is, this thing is extremely brutal and killing.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the Texas Skinners are actually more like a legend, a made-up character, just like the witch and the dragon in the story, no one will believe that the dragon really exists.
Therefore, there are generally few people who take "Texas skinners" seriously, and biologists in their right minds will not treat fire dragons with a rigorous research attitude.
But the Colonel and Abel's attitude towards the Texas Skinners is not as easy as that of the dragons, although they are both villains in the story, compared to the Texas Skinners, Gargamel is simply a harmless little mouse to humans and animals.
Dragons don't exist.
The Texas Skinners are a real kind of demons...... Every legend has its origins, and people's imaginations and oral stories about this monster are by no means made up out of nothing.
In the Hunter's Database, the "Texas Skinner" is numbered sixty-seven.
It is a powerful predator second only to the Killer and is extremely rare, appearing only twice in history...... The only reason why such a rare hunter is so widely known and known to almost everyone is that the damage and casualties caused by this thing are so staggering that it only needs to appear once to make its image deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Fear is the best catalyst for rumors, and only the most terrifying monster will make everyone remember it.
The Texas Skinners have never been apocryphal creatures, this thing has a lot of blood debts, which is unimaginable to ordinary people, it has not appeared for a long time, Abraham thought that this ancient demon was extinct, who knew that it would actually appear in the academy.
Far from being a weak and sluggish scavenger, the Texas Skinners are the strangest and most fearsome of the most terrible predators, appearing only twice in history, each time in a bloody slaughter.
So Abraham is very nervous, and the security zone is probably no less dangerous than the last time he played against the Killers.
But the Texas Skinners are even more weird than the Alien Queen, who is stronger than the Alien Queen, but is a tonnage of stupid black coarseness, and the Texas Skinners have always been known for their mystery and horror because it is unique...... Humanoid marauders.
