Volume 1 Section 302 Moon Tides

Haig raised his head, with the innocence and loveliness peculiar to a girl, and said with great pride: "I am their king, and you are my master, the emperor who rules over them, and commands their absolute master, the greatest being." ”

Although he has changed into a new body, Haig's kung fu has not regressed at all, but has become more and more exquisite.

Su Hao continued to smile and asked, "Tell me, how many subordinates do you have now?" ”

"They're just the most obedient part of it. In addition to this, there are six hundred and four. ”

Haig grinned, revealing two rows of neat white teeth. Now is not the time to eat, it does not dare to look disobedient in front of Su Hao, and naturally it will not show its sharp and terrible fangs, but appear as a female image that conforms to the aesthetic point of view of human beings.

"Won't these guys resist? Well, I mean, will they be disobedient sometimes? Su Hao was particularly concerned about this.

"I have a way of making them obedient."

Haig smiled and released the unique feminine style.

It turned and beckoned to a pigman standing behind him, carrying a thick cement pole on his shoulder. The pig man immediately strode forward, put down the telephone pole in his hand, and squatted down like a mountain, trying to lower his body as much as possible, like a pet pig with a strange shape.

Haig raised his right hand, cocked his white and slender fingers into a beautiful orchid shape, and put his index finger into his mouth, and bit it off in front of Su Hao and the others. Suddenly, the delicate, white fingers broke off from the middle, and a bright red substance shaped like a sponge gushed out.

This thing is supposed to be some kind of mutant tissue in Haig's body, and its function and function are similar to those of platelets inside the human body. In just a few seconds, this red "sponge" quickly stretched upwards and split into hundreds of fine strands of flesh. They are attached to each other and combine with each other in a short period of time through cells that are constantly dividing to undergo secondary growth. Soon, under Su Hao's gaze, it grew into a tentacle about thirty centimeters long, with a ring-like texture on the surface, and a hard armor-like shell sprawling from the tip.

Haig grabbed the pigman's fat fan ear with his left hand, and with a flower-like smile, he stabbed the tentacle into the pigman's side neck. At the same time, the soft part of the tentacle that can bend begins to squirm, and the speed of continuous expansion and contraction is extremely rhythmic. Obviously, this hollow fleshy tube has some kind of special liquid flowing in it. Su Hao didn't know why Haig wanted to do this? But it's clear that Haig is delivering something from his body into the pig-man's body. Maybe it's cells, or blood, or it could be bodily waste like urine and feces. This process is as direct as a human infusion, even extremely violent. But on the other hand, the pigman lying next to Haig did not show the slightest expression of pain. The curved eyebrows seem to be smiling, and they are enjoying it.

"Dear master, its name is "Xi Shi", and it is my favorite concubine. ”

Haig was indeed speechless. It withdrew its tentacle from the pigman's neck, reached into its mouth again and bit it off, and a new finger quickly grew from the wound. It was white and smooth, indistinguishable from the one that had been bitten off before. Haig may have become accustomed to this kind of self-harm, with tentacles and fingers chewing "crunch" in his mouth, as if they were not part of his body at all, but a snack used to pass the time when he was bored, no different from potato chips and candy.

"The black particles you gave me, master, are truly magical. I used injections to make these guys follow me with all their hearts. They are very capable of fighting and hunt very fast. I don't have to worry about food anymore. Every time they hunt, they bring back a few guys who voluntarily surrendered. I told them to be ashamed, to get dressed, not to walk around naked. Master, you see that these four strongest guys are the most obedient subordinates. In addition to the Xi Shi just introduced, there are also Diao Chan and Wang Zhaojun. As for the fattest and fattest cow head, with the wisdom of the owner, you must be able to guess that it is Yang Yuhuan. ”

Although Su Hao had long understood Haig's whimsical and leaping thinking, he was still completely shocked by this passage. He struggled to control his laughter and tears, making the twitching muscles on his face look normal, and asked in as calm a tone as possible, "How do you name them like that?" Can't you think of something else in your head besides women? ”

"Of course I have"

Haig screamed. It put its finger in its mouth and whistled, and an eight-legged spideroid flew toward it. Haig grabbed the hard body hair on the spider-man's head, turned his head, and said to Su Hao as if offering a treasure: "Dear master, this guy is running fast, I named it "Liu Xiang". And the bloody corpse over there with a dead man's face, I call it "Zhang Yimou". In addition, there is a group of cockroach-like people who look similar, and I plan to name them "Thirteen Taibao", or "National Football Eleven Waste...... These names are all I have seen from old newspapers and books, they have a lot of character, they have a lot of character, they are very inspiring. ”

Hearing this, Huang He, who was standing next to him, couldn't hold back any longer. I want to laugh, but I don't dare to be too presumptuous. After all, they are surrounded by mutated creatures with hideous faces and fierce shapes. But this kind of patience is really uncomfortable, Huang He can only cover his mouth with one hand, cover his stomach with the other, curl up his waist, trembling all over, and making a dull "poof" sound from between his fingers.

Su Hao looked at Haig calmly. This silent and calm attitude obviously affected the dozens of mutated creatures gathered around. They looked at Su Hao with fearful and timid eyes. Although they are different species, Su Hao can still clearly feel that the pair of vertical pupils, compound eyes, and eyes that can rotate one hundred and eighty degrees all reflect the awe of his instinct.

"Haig, you called me here just to show me this?"

Suddenly, Su Hao turned his gaze to Haig, who was kneeling on the ground again, and asked lightly, "This is what you call an important situation?" ”

"Of course not"

Although Su Hao's tone was flat, a chill inexplicably rose in Haig's heart. It subconsciously lowered its voice and replied in a delicate voice peculiar to women: "Master, I have discovered a very strange phenomenon. ”

From the time he got Su Hao's approval and entered the abandoned city, several months have passed

There is a hierarchical chain of mutated creatures that prey on each other. Things like lions hunting lone hyenas, or large herds of hyenas rounding up lone lions, often happen in mutant groups. Despite his ability to control his mind, Haig has been hunted down by other mutated creatures more than once. If it weren't for the human being's familiarity with the city, the ability to use tools, and then the ability to control the other party's various survival skills with his mind, Haig would have become a monster to eat and then expel feces from his body.

Haig loves abandoned cities. It can't say what it is for, but it feels very comfortable and relaxing to stay here. It's like bathing in the warm winter sun, with an indescribable heartiness. Although danger may be encountered at any time, it is nothing compared to the subtle consciousness of the mind's senses.

A special environment with obedient subordinates, food that you can get without having to do it yourself, and free use of your abilities...... There is no place in the world that suits you more than this.

Haig occupies one of the largest libraries in the abandoned city. It makes it its home. In addition to eating, his biggest hobby every day is to sit at the table, hold the books he has taken from the shelves, and study them carefully.

It is a very poetic picture: a beautiful girl with long hair and waist-length sitting quietly holding a book, looking dignified and exuding a quiet and pleasant temperament. There were four strong, uglier than ghosts standing around, and a whole bunch of terrifying monsters were clustered next to them......

Two months ago, Haig suddenly discovered that there were one or two fixed days every month, and the mutated creatures in the abandoned city would become especially manic, or rather, excited.

Humanoids of any shape, race, and even blood corpses must behave more impulsively than usual. They no longer hold on to their own territory, and fights and fights have become more frequent. It wasn't hunger at all, it wasn't a thirst for food, it was killing in the pure sense of the word. They are like being overdosed with stimulants, releasing excessive energy without hesitation. Larger humanoids like to grab cats, dogs, and other humanoids and tear hard, while insectoid humanoids surround pigs and cattle and gnaw around...... They are not like this at all, killing each other just to hunt for food, but on that special day, their temperament will change drastically, and they will kill simply for the sake of killing.

In addition to killing each other, mutated creatures have another special behavior to unleash their excitement.

They mate between different races.

From Haig's point of view, it was rape at all.

It had seen a cow-like grab a dog-man and thrust its thick, hard genitals into its genitals. The emaciated body of a dog man simply cannot accommodate a meat stick that is more than a meter long. The poor guy was stabbed on the spot, and blood came out of his nostrils, eyes, and mouth. It had been howling miserably, and the bull-like man on the head was unaware, still grabbing the dog man's shoulder with great interest, looking up to the sky and releasing its exuberant energy. The whole venting process lasted for nearly two hours, and the cow withdrew his blood-stained genitals, threw the dog man, whose entire body had turned into a tube, and turned away contentedly.

Haig had also seen a group of mosquito-like humans grab a bloody corpse and insert sharp needle-shaped mouthparts into it, injecting it with their characteristic digestive venom. The corpse soon showed signs of dissolution, and the mosquitooid used this as a basis to thrust the tip of its tail into the corpse, laying a bunch of hazel eggs. After hatching, the larvae can be adequately nourished and develop into new mosquito-like humans in a short period of time.

Development, mating, killing, tyranny...... All kinds of bizarre violence happen every month.

Initially, Haig thought it was an individual act between mutated organisms. But it soon found that the problem was far beyond imagination, and even the submissive monsters under its command had a faint sign of being uncontrollable. If it weren't for Haig's containment by biting off his fingers to grow tentacles and continuously injecting more black particles, I am afraid that even he himself would have become food and even playthings for many of his subordinates.

Of course, things like interracial copulation don't happen every month. Mutated creatures have a fixed period of estrus and mating, but in terms of the specific time of sexual activity, it is almost always concentrated on that day

Haig called this particular phenomenon "disordered chaos among mutated organisms."

From the initial perception to the present, this confusion has intensified. Mutated creatures gather in the core of the city, and their activity area originates in the center of the city, diverging in a ring towards the surrounding areas. In the abandoned city of Guiyang, for example, the area where mutant organisms are active rarely exceeds the Second Ring Road. However, at a fixed time each month, they become crazy, and their range of activities increases, and at one point they even show signs of leaving the city.

Haig fell to his knees, describing the whole thing in as familiar words as he could.

"Dear master, I have limited knowledge of human language and may not be able to accurately express certain details. Mutated creatures always enter the Rage period on that day of the month, and the time before and after lasts for about twelve hours, which is very accurate, never early or delayed. If I had to describe it in one word, well...... It's like a woman's menstrual period every month. The difference is that menstruation lasts for a whole week, while the restlessness of mutant creatures is only twelve hours. ”

All the light in Su Hao's eyes had condensed, without the slightest fluctuation. In the silver moonlight, there is no flickering in sight, as if a mechanical emotionless existence.

This is only a superficial phenomenon.

In Su Hao's inner world at this moment, a tsunami-like monstrous wave is rolling. His mind was messy due to violent shocks, and his consciousness could not return to calm, and there were strong jumps one after another. In order to make himself look calm, Su Hao had to clench his hands and clench them into fists, so that cyan blood vessels bulged from the surface of the back of his hands, as if he was struggling with some terrifying existence that was invisible to the naked eye.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Black, Haig"

Su Hao heard his voice become hoarse, with an uncontrollable trill. He ignored the surprised eyes of Huang He next to him, took a deep breath, and sped up the speed of his questioning.

"The mutant creatures have a fixed time of madness every month, what is it...... What day is it, exactly? ”

Haig opened his mouth, a hint of trepidation on his beautiful face.

"Hug, sorry master, I'm ...... I didn't learn how to tell the date. Me, I can see the numbers on the calendar, but I can't understand how they relate to time. I'm studying hard and I believe it won't be long before I can ......."

"I'll talk about those things laterβ€”β€”β€”β€”"

Su Hao waved his hand, interrupted Haig's words quite impatiently, and asked repeatedly: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand the date." Think about it, were there any special natural phenomena during that time? Like the shape of the sun and moon? It is on this basis that the time and calendar are formulated. ”

"Sun...... Moon ......"

Haig muttered, and according to Su Hao's inspiration, he kept replaying the various scenes he had seen in his mind

After a few minutes, Haig looked up and said seriously, "I remember." Every time they are restless, it is at night, and the moon in the sky at that time is round. ”

Stalkers lurking outside the abandoned city saw the buggy driving along the road. They immediately reported everything they saw by remote communication: just like when they went a few hours forward, Su Hao and four other people were still sitting in the car. There was an unsightly mutated creature in the carriage. Perhaps, that's what they had caught tonight's night hunt.

The buggy returned to the army headquarters along the route at the time of departure. Before walking into the office, Su Hao's face had been calm and calm. He was well aware that this inherent attitude had to be maintained in the face of a multitude of peeping eyes.

Walking into the room and closing the door, Su Hao completely lost the expression he had had been a few seconds ago. Although he still seemed calm, his voice trembled significantly, his face turned slightly pale, and he issued a series of instructions to Huang He and other personal guards as fast as he could.

"Order the "No. 1 Hive" and "Castle" to increase the protection of the surrounding area from now on. Especially during the full moon in the middle of each month, it is necessary to pay close attention to the movements of the abandoned city near the base. All areas connecting the city are mined, and decoys are to be placed in other directions. If you encounter an irresistible large-scale mutant swarm, you can abandon the surface part of the base and move all personnel to the underground level. ”

"Find a way to notify all the large and small "hives" scattered in different areas, ordering them to speed up the construction of underground shelters in their locations and to stock up on weapons and ammunition in large quantities. In the event of an irresistible onslaught of mutated creatures, move to safety immediately. ”

"Order Cao Rui and Du Tianhao to speed up the conversion of refugees outside the base city. The criteria for judging and identifying "reserve worker bees" can be reduced by five percentage points, and for refugees who have become "worker bees", they will immediately be distributed with enough silver bones to evolve to the strength of the third stage. The specific number asked Cao Rui and the others to calculate, if the silver bone in reserve was enough, the number of direct reinforcement to the fourth stage would be issued. ”

"Tell To Tianhao to let his team cause chaos in the refugee crowd and drive the refugees to the northwest and away from the abandoned city as much as possible. As for the daily food, I try to allocate it so that no one goes hungry. ”

Huang He carefully recorded every order, and several other "worker bee" guards standing next to him smoothly relayed the order. Due to the tight time, Su Hao no longer cares about the safest manual transmission, but directly transmits by telecommunication.

The instructions are not too many, and the content is not complicated. After posting the news, Su Hao kept frowning, walking back and forth in the room with his hands folded, trying to think about something. His movements and expressions made everyone nervous, and the air in the room became dull.

Huang He looked at him worriedly, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" I've never seen you so panicked. What the hell is going on? ”
