Chapter 146: Deadly Rain
The playground of Makurugawa Private High School is not small, and there used to be a circle of cherry blossom trees around it, but now it has been gnawed clean by the BMs who arrived first. Now the empty playground is bare without any shelter, and it is a little dazzling under the spicy sun.
BM is indeed a yin-loving creature, chasing Xin Suran and the two ran for about two hundred meters, and curled up one by one like sun-dried cauliflower under the scorching sun, and there were no more BM drilled out of the window of the school building not far away, and it seemed that the same kind inside also found that the two prey had entered the area they hated, and no longer chased them meaninglessly.
"Okay, it's finally safe for the time being, rest for a while" Xin Suran gasped and sat down on the floor. It's close to the middle of the playground, not far from the exit of the school gate, and now the road over there is also full of shriveled BMs, plus the pursuers behind, and now the two seem to be trapped on an island in the BM ocean.
"Have you contacted the instructors?" Mo Chenyan inserted the two iron rods back into her back, the appearance of these two weapons in a non-combat state is really nothing to speak of, but in a situation like this, it is not the time to pick and choose.
Xin Suran nodded, threw out the communication crystal that had been reduced to crumbs, and took out the remaining rune paper in his arms and rearranged it.
"Now it is estimated that the entire city has almost fallen, and it will not be easy for them to get here. Let's stay here for the time being, it's not safe to rush outside."
Mo Chenyan nodded, and simply sat down back to back with him, squinting her eyes and raising her head to bask in the sun. Suddenly, he said again: "By the way, how do you know the origin of these things?" ”
"Hehe, asking this kind of thing is to prove that you don't like to read country R comics." Xin Suran packed up her things and followed her example to make herself more comfortable, "Most of the stories in the Nightmare World are based on apocalyptic themes, and in most cases, movies, games, film and television dramas, etc., will be chosen, because this kind of story is logically more complete and more suitable as a world scene to generate the Nightmare World." ”
"However, there are some exceptions, and occasionally some stories from novels or anime are added to it. For example, this time the Nightmare World, its world background/scene is taken from a horror comic of R country, the name is "BM Ultimate Creature", although it is not necessarily the protagonist or plot of the story in the original Zài, but the general theme will not change. Xin Suran breathed a sigh of relief, and continued, "Fortunately, my brother is a fan of comics in country R."
Mo Chenyan pursed her lips, noncommittal to Xin Suran's words. Seeing the clumps of BM curled up all around, although it seemed to be dormant, she always felt a little uncomfortable, so she got up and picked up a bent iron bar on the side of the road, presumably a stand left over from the bench after being eaten.
She swept aside the nearby BMs with a long iron bar, clearing a path that led to the school gate. However, there was a hut similar to a security booth at the school gate, and she didn't dare to get too close, seeing that the window was obviously not closed, it was estimated that it was already full of BM.
The sun-dried BM shell is slightly hard, but the meat in the center is still a little soft, every time it pokes with an iron bar, its stiff body will twitch slightly, Mo Chenyan was still a little nervous at first, but gradually put her mind at ease, these guys are indeed motionless in the sun, and it is estimated that they will be indifferent if they poke them directly. However, their vitality is tenacious, and they can't die if they really pierce it, it's just a futile effort.
"Let's rest for a while, save a little more body, maybe there will be some danger waiting for us in the future." Xin Suran wiped the beads of sweat on his face, today's weather is not only hot but also a little stuffy, and the sun is sweating after less than half an hour. Seeing that Mo Chenyan was still doing some useless work in vain over there, he couldn't help but be a little amused. "It's relatively safe here, it's still early before dark, and as long as it doesn't rain, there's no problem."
Mo Chenyan ignored him, and still buried herself in the "cleaning" work, the weather was a little stuffy, but she didn't feel particularly tired, and being more physical was her strength.
As the saying goes, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and some people say that good words do not work and bad words do not work.
Soon in the afternoon, the weather began to change, first a dark cloud slowly obscured the scorching sun, and then a low muffled thunder sounded in the clouds.
Xin Suran couldn't calm down at this time, he looked up at the sky with an ugly face, and said in his heart, Nima's, don't they all say that there is no endless road to heaven? Isn't this goddamn rhythm a deadly one?
At this time, Mo Chenyan also threw away the long iron bar and returned to his side. Losing the exposure to the scorching sun, those curled up BMs became very sensitive, Mo Chenyan poked it lightly, it trembled violently, and the contracted limbs also had a tendency to stretch out, Mo Chenyan saw that the situation was not good, so she simply pulled it up with an iron bar and disappeared behind the wall like a golf ball.
At this time, Xin Suran no longer made fun of what Mo Chenyan had done before, thanks to the cleaning she had done for more than an hour, at least there was no BM storage within three or four hundred meters around the two of them, but it was only so, and the dilemma of being surrounded on all sides had not been improved.
Although Xin Suran had been praying in his mouth, after holding it for half an hour, the first drop of rain still fell on his face. Gradually, the raindrops became bigger and bigger, and the rain became more and more dense, and the two of them stood on the open space without shelter, and soon their hair and clothes were wet, sticky and uncomfortable, and there were some chills in the breeze.
But what was even colder was their hearts, because under this sudden rainstorm, the BMs who had been sunburned into dried meat greedily absorbed the water like a sponge, and after a while, the shriveled bodies swelled up, the curled limbs also stretched, and the black and round bodies were rejuvenated under the rain, and began to gather and move one by one.
"Don't move, don't make a sound," Xin Suran put her mouth to Mo Chenyan's ear and whispered, her voice was actually a little trembling, "These things don't have vision, but they are very sensitive to sound, and now we don't have any food around us that attracts them, I hope they don't come this way."
Mo Chenyan also nodded nervously, and the two iron rods that were used as weapons were already in her hands. This heavy rain came too suddenly, and most of the papers that Xin Suran had prepared to outline the magic array had been soaked, and even if there were still usable ones, the power of the fireball would be greatly weakened under such heavy rain. In the event of a battle, the only thing she could use was the two inconspicuous iron rods in her hands.
Fortunately, after cleaning it before, the recovered BM did not find them immediately, they were exposed to the rain and probed their brains, as if they were listening to a suspicious sound. However, the rain was heavy, and the crackling sound of the rain hitting the ground disturbed the senses of the BMs for a certain distance, and they scurried around in groups in the rain, trying to find edible objects.
Xin Suran and Mo Chenyan stood back to back and half-squatted, not daring to move, but now the situation is a bit fateful, and BM didn't find out that they didn't prove that they were necessarily safe. These things are scurrying all over the playground, and the devil knows when one and a half will crash into them.
Xin Suran knew that the previous contact of these things was a kind of high-frequency ultrasound, which was naturally inaudible to the human ear. As soon as a BM finds edible prey, it sends a signal to its surroundings. This kind of signal is said to have a range of more than one kilometer, and all BMs that receive the signal will concentrate in that direction regardless of qiē. You must know that in such an urban area, the number of BMs within a radius of one kilometer is more than 10 million, and once they are surrounded, it will be a catastrophe.
Xin Su's throat rolled, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the scattered BMs. Although the area of the playground is large, the number of BMs is larger, and the open space around the two is getting smaller and smaller under such aimless scattering.
100 meters, 50 meters, 20 meters, 10 meters, 5 meters, and finally a probe probed brain BM approached the two within two meters. It seemed to hesitate for a moment, and it didn't know if it was the head or tail organs raised high, swaying in the air, as if sensing something.
Xin Suran's heart immediately rose to his throat, he knew that although the two of them were motionless, the sound of breathing and heartbeat still could not be still, if it wasn't for this heavy rain that interfered with BM's hearing, they would have already been discovered by the other party.
Beat? Or run away? Xin Suran couldn't make up her mind. But at this time, Mo Chenyan beside her moved. I saw that she cautiously stretched a short rod towards the BM. The raindrops hit the iron rod with a slightly different sound from the surrounding one.
BM hesitated and tried to reach his foreleg towards the position of the short rod. Mo Chenyan's movements are very light, but she is also a little sure, as soon as she touches BM's body, she will immediately pick it up when the current paralyzes the other party, and pick the BM's body out of the air, I believe that the speed of BM's signal will not be faster than the current on her short rod.
Xin Suran suddenly felt a spirit, and a question suddenly thought of in his heart, and he wanted to reach out to stop Mo Chenyan's movements in a hurry. But after all, it was still a step slow, the iron rod and BM's body collided together, and a powerful electric current instantly penetrated BM's body, and the jet-black body twitched violently and became a mass of charred black.
However, Mo Chenyan also understood the problem she had ignored at this moment, that is, the current would be conducted, especially in such a rainstorm, when both of them were soaked.
A tingling sensation instantly spread from her fingers all over her body, followed by a tingling pain all over her body, although she gritted her teeth, but a painful snort could not help but come out.
The Xin Su Ran next to her was inevitably affected, but as a magician, his resistance to elemental damage far exceeded that of Mo Chenyan, and his body only trembled slightly before he returned to normal, and quickly hugged Mo Chenyan, whose body was paralyzed.
However, Mo Chenyan's inaudible snort just now still caused a monstrous disaster, and the BMs who were searching around raised their heads in unison, and even the BMs in the distance crawled in their direction.
