Chapter 456: Savagery

The gravel and asphalt paved road came to a halt about a dozen kilometres near the core of the mountain range. This is the edge of the defense of Moli Zaka Fortress, where the high and low guard towers and permanent fortifications are intertwined, and even the giant mutants cannot destroy the fortifications with brute force. Of course, the warning tower of the reinforced concrete structure can only withstand dozens of impacts from mutants at most, and cracks will appear on the surface. However, in the process, the mutants will also be counterattacked extremely fiercely by the guardians. Although the velocity of a 9mm bullet is not as fast as the most advanced heavy machine gun on Earth, it is enough to pose a lethal threat to mutants.

This is Rabangka, where the density of matter determines that the power of the bullet far exceeds the standard of similar weapons on Earth. Su Hao calculated that the power of the 9 mm warhead produced in the world of Rabangka is equivalent to that of a 105 mm artillery shell on the earth, or even stronger. But due to the close combination between biological evolutionary standards and cells, a 9mm warhead cannot release the powerful explosion of a 105mm shell, especially in terms of lethality, and is also constrained by the environment.

The sky was overcast, and the thick clouds were approaching the ground, as if they could collapse at any moment. The howling wind was not very strong, but it brought a very noticeable chill. As far as the eye can see, there is even pale white frost hanging from the treetops in the distance.

Su Hao walked forward alone. He refused requests from guards and other "worker bees" to accompany him. He was the only one who felt the calling, not to mention, in this world, he was already the most powerful beta-level evolutionary.

The hillsides were full of dense forests and large patches of burnt dead wood. It was a massive attack by the artillery of the fortress, the traces caused by the release of incendiary bombs. Su Hao has always believed that mutants rely on the mountains and forests as a cover, and the best way to solve them is to destroy them together with this forest.

After more than an hour, the road was completely gone. The woods grew denser and denser, and strange noises kept coming out of the depths of the woods. It seemed that someone was whispering, there seemed to be insects such as textile girls chirping, and the sound waves echoed around Su Hao, but there was no greater movement.

Su Hao chose the nearest road to the top of the mountain. Strictly speaking, that's just a vague direction. Decades ago, during the first full-scale aerial search of the Central Mountains in a hot air balloon, a vague white building was discovered deep in the mountains. Judging by its appearance, it should be a giant pyramid. It is surrounded by dense jungle and is topped by a large number of vines. For decades, the fortified defense command sent air units to conduct searches on a daily basis. It used to be a hot air balloon, then it became a wooden biplane, and now it is an airship that can stay in the air for a long time. The white pyramid still sits there quietly, and until now, it has issued an indefatigable call.

Su Hao completely let go of his thinking. In a vast area with a diameter of more than a kilometer, he found hundreds of mutants. All of them are huge xenomorphs, and as they get closer to the core of the mountains, more and more mutants appear in front of them. Strangely, these monsters had no intention of stopping themselves. There seems to be a tacit understanding between them, and they all disperse into the woods. Judging from the mind detection map, it seems to be a "passage" composed entirely of mutants, and each side is more than fifty meters away from Su Hao.

Suddenly, a thin black shadow rushed silently from the side. It is more than twenty meters above the ground and appears to be gliding through the air. Su Hao jumped and flipped over agilely, pounced on a towering tree next to him, and flexibly avoided the black shadow attack. The opponent's reversal of direction was noticeably faster than expected. As soon as its feet touched the ground, it immediately retracted and ejected, and flew towards Su Hao again.

It's a very peculiar creature. The basic appearance resembles that of an ancient dinosaur, with a body covered in a layer of fine scales that reveal a palpitating purple-black color in the sun. It hunched its back, with a pair of short, powerful limbs protruding from its body, with sharp hooks like vultures. Su Hao saw every movement of the creature after it landed. It has a pair of fleshy wings growing on its back, which can spread out and glide at low altitudes. After landing, the Hook Claw firmly grasped the root of the tree on the ground, completed the body turn in a short time, and then suddenly burst out with incredible power, using the Hook of the Forelimb as the lead, flying towards itself.

Even a fifth-order enhancer was far from being an opponent of this terrifying creature. In terms of strength and speed, it is above the enhancer. But for Su Hao, it is just a prey that kills itself.

Sideways, he grabbed the back of the opponent's neck with his backhand, and broke his neck with a thunderous "click". When Su Hao jumped down from the tree, the monster that was caught in his hand was no longer able to move, but under the traction of the nerves that had not yet lost its effect, it made useless convulsions.

There was a faint vibration on the ground, and Su Hao didn't have time to carefully observe the prey in his hand, so he turned around and looked in the direction of the source of the tremor.

It is in the same direction as the white pyramid at the top of the mountain. In the more spacious part of the woods, a burly giant slowly walked.

It is more than five meters tall, and although Su Hao is a giant that is more than three meters tall, he must look up in front of this guy. It was naked, with knotted muscles and overdeveloped flesh that clearly did not belong to the normal category, much like the result of some kind of drug catalysis or mutation. The blood vessels on the surface of the neck and elbows are thick, and the skin is completely grayish-brown, and in some places even simply dark, looking rough and dense, filled with too much connective tissue.

It has three pairs of arms, and the entire upper body is occupied by thick arms on both sides. The legs of the lower body are unusually developed, otherwise it would not be enough to support the weight of the burly body. On that point alone, it's clearly not a human being. At least on the surface, it doesn't.

"You're strong! I've never seen a human like you. ”

The six-armed giant man tilted his gaze downwards and looked at Su Hao with an extremely majestic posture. Its head has many fine, hard, sharp bumps that feel like a strangely shaped rambutan. It didn't look like a human beard, but a hard thing that pierced the hand. Especially on both sides of the cheeks, there are two pairs of fangs more than ten centimeters long. Su Hao noticed that the fangs did not protrude directly from the edge of the lips, but pierced through the facial skin and punctured from the inside of the mouth. This change must have appeared on the giant a long time ago, and it was apparently not in pain, and the contact between the fangs that penetrated its face and the skin had healed.

The giant has only one eye, which grows in the center of its forehead. When Su Hao was gazed at by it, he only felt an illusion similar to being shrouded in a strong spotlight.

Su Hao stood silently in place and looked at the giant. He didn't pull out the tomahawk that was slung behind his back, nor did he reach for the special large-caliber pistol in the holster at his waist. Mind detection allows him to make the most basic power comparison between friend and foe in a short period of time. Although this one-eyed six-armed giant has a terrifying appearance, the standard of strength is at the level of a first-order evolutionary person. Compared to the giant mutants in the forest who watched from afar, they were undoubtedly strong. But in front of him, he is nothing.

"Who are you?" Although this issue is irrelevant, Su Hao believes that it is necessary to figure it out.

"I'm Ripper Saka. You don't belong here, you probably haven't heard of my name. ”

As he spoke, the cyclops revealed a shocking mouth. The scale of the lip opening and closing connects almost the entire horizontal part of the head. It looks like a giant frog with a strange shape, with two rows of sharp teeth distributed inside the mouth. Very fine, neatly arranged, like a dagger with its blades pointed upwards. As you can imagine, once bitten by it, there is almost no possibility of getting out.

Without waiting for Su Hao to answer, Saka the Ripper continued to make a thunderous voice: "I know why you came. ”

Su Hao was slightly stunned.

"You don't belong in this world."

As Saka the Ripper spoke, the muscles in his face looked extremely incongruous. That's right, it can make sounds, and it's a syllable that Su Hao can understand. But as he spoke, Su Hao always heard a slight noise in Saka's head and body, as if the bones and muscles were changing shape to accommodate the essential vocalization needs.

The scene looked eerie, and the cold temperatures in the dense forest had no effect on Saka the Ripper. It stared at a huge single eye more than ten centimeters in diameter, and its words were full of menace and undisguised hostility: "I don't like you. It was my master who asked you to come here. But that doesn't mean I have to listen to you. ”

Su Hao was a little moved. Regardless of what kind of creature this so-called "Ripper Saka" is, what comes out of his mouth is indeed the secret that Su Hao has wanted to explore the most for decades. In fact, when he first came to the world of Rabangka, Su Hao already felt that the central mountain range was his goal. However, the black particle repeatedly warned him to stay away from that place. In addition, the earth side did not continue to send reinforcements, so Su Hao turned to the goal of unifying the world, integrating forces, developing science and technology, and finding another way out.

"You are not of my kind. You've killed too many of my kind. ”

Saka the Ripper's roar grew louder and louder, causing an extremely strong concussive effect in the dense forest: "Almost all of my young creatures have been slaughtered by you. I don't know what you're trying to do, why do you have to burn forests? Why did you have to destroy this area? My children and grandchildren and I have been living here for a long time, and you are the one who broke the peace here. You...... Better get the hell out of me right now! ”

In the last sentence, Saka the Ripper was no longer uttered in human language, but howled like a beast.

Su Hao's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light, and he clenched the monster that had just been killed in his left hand, pulled open the holster with his right hand, pulled out his pistol, and aimed it at the Saka one-eyed who was slightly congested on the edge.

The pistol is a specialty of the Imperial Arsenal. The caliber of a single bullet is thirty millimeters, which is equivalent to a machine gun on Earth. The gun's barrel can only hold three rounds, and when fired at close range, it can blow a giant mutant in two directly from the middle of the body.

"I admit you're right. But you don't seem to be able to figure out the current situation. ”

Su Hao held the gun and said calmly: "You said, you know why I came here." The one who made the summons is obviously not you, but the so-called "master" behind you. Get out of the way, or you can take me there. You don't have a third option. ”

Saka the Ripper didn't answer, just stared at Su Hao with Sen Leng and fierce eyes.

Dense clusters of giant mutants gradually appeared in the dense forest. They moved towards it in droves, and soon converged into a terrifying tide that made people palpitate. There's clearly a subtle coordination between the height of the trees and the mutants, with the bottom branch barely reaching the top of the giant mutant's head. They move without hindrance, and the mutated weapon on their left arm remains in a fighting stance at all times. A pair of eyes released an incomparably bitter hatred and hatred for Su Hao, as well as a reverence for Saka the Ripper.

Su Hao slowly turned around, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on his face. Among them, there is obvious hideousness and distortion.

"What, you want to kill me?"

Su Hao let go of his left hand, slowly pulled out the battle axe from his back and carried it diagonally, his eyes kept on the Ripper Saka who was standing in front of him: "If I were you, I wouldn't do it." ”

Saka's eyes were already full of hatred and anger: "Why? ”

"As you just said, all the mutants here are your descendants."

Su Hao waved the battle axe back and forth twice: "They are not my opponents. You can't keep me, you can do whatever I want, they will die miserably, and not even one of them will leave alive. ”

These words touched Sara the Ripper. It was obviously unwilling to let Su Hao go like this, but it couldn't drive other mutants to die in vain as Su Hao said. After a stalemate for nearly two minutes, Saka suddenly erupted with a scream that was enough to puncture his eardrums, and his huge body suddenly bounced up and slammed towards Su Hao from the air. Although it moved quickly, Su Hao's reaction was far beyond imagination. He aimed his gun directly at the eyeball above Saka's head, and this discovery made Saka immediately feel cold all over, and hurriedly grabbed the branch next to him and moved his body sideways.

The screams rang out at the same time as the roar of the pistols. Before Saka could stand firm, a dense swarm of shotguns had already struck in the air, and the furious impact tore at the top of Saka's left arm, and it felt as if it had become a lot easier in that position, and then felt an unbearable sharp pain. When I turned my head to look, my entire arm had been blown off. The ground and the trees were littered with blood and minced flesh. And Su Hao, who was standing opposite, had already quickly loaded the second bullet and pointed the muzzle of the gun at his forehead.

Monsters are just monsters after all. Despite his size, Saka could not withstand the blast of the bullets. On Earth, a bullet from a "Python" pistol is enough to blow open an elephant's skull. In the world of Rabangka, the technology promoted by Su Hao can also do this. What's more, compared to elephants, Saka is at best terrifying in appearance, and his skin and muscles are far from evolving to the point of invulnerability.

didn't hurt the killer, not because of the mercy of his subordinates. Saka is nothing more than a monster with simple intelligence at best. Su Hao didn't think it was the true ruler of the Central Mountain Range. What's more, this guy also said just now: it has an owner.

"Sue me, where is the entrance?"

Saka the Ripper had already stood up from the ground, tightly covering the wound on his severed arm, and glaring at Su Hao fiercely with his red one-eyed. It was a stalemate, the air seemed to freeze, and the giant mutants gathered around did not pounce. Their expressions seemed hesitant, as if they were being controlled and restrained by some kind of force.

"Now that you've come here, you don't need any guidance."

The seriously injured Saka gritted his teeth fiercely, and his eyes showed a fierce look: "You can walk in by yourself." ”

This answer is not the answer Su Hao wants. He frowned slowly, but made no further movements.

The black particles in the body are alarming again. At the moment when the word "entrance" blurted out just now, Su Hao felt an unprecedented strong resistance in his body. It is no longer the same suppression as usual, but it has been transformed into a substantial containment. For the first time, the black particles unleashed such a strong force, sealing off certain conductions of the central nervous system in the most ferocious manner. For a moment or two, Su Hao even felt that he couldn't take a step out of his legs. This is not the effect of the subjective consciousness of the brain, but the ignorance of the black particle warning, which leads to the forced failure of the body's functions.

It doesn't allow me to pass. Why exactly?

Looking at the white pyramid with a vague outline in the distance, Su Hao suddenly burst in front of Saka the Ripper, almost standing face to face with it. Caught off guard, Saka's face was full of shock, and his mouth subconsciously opened, revealing the fine fangs all over his mouth. Before it could react, a dagger had passed through its shoulder silently, and Su Hao returned to its original starting position like a ghost. Saka felt a burning pain in his left shoulder, and looked down to see a blood-red patch appear in the center of his sight. His gaze immediately shifted to Su Hao, and he put away the dagger, and his slender and white fingers saw that there was already an extra piece of flesh that had been stripped of skin and trembled slightly in the sun.

Su Hao carefully observed the piece of meat spread on his fingertips, then put it in his mouth, closed his eyes, and tasted it carefully and carefully.

He saw the early days of Saka the Ripper. At that time, Saka was just a mutant with a body about the size of a normal person. It follows other members of its species to hunt natives on the edge of the mountains. That's their favorite prey. Indigenous and mutant humans are two species that will never have the possibility of coexistence. In addition to your life-and-death killing, it is to turn the other party into your own food.

When a mutant reaches a certain age, they will become larger and larger. Giant mutants belong to the adult individuals among them. The number of giant mutants in the Central Mountains is not large, only about one percent of the average mutants. Their area of activity is limited to the mountain core. It's not that the giant mutants don't want to leave, it's that there really isn't much more food to thrive in the outside world, and it's the only place where they can get enough nutrients.

Savoring.
