Chapter Twenty-Three: The Hunt Is More Deadly Than Imagined
Early in the morning, someone knocked on the door, and the sleepy-eyed Ma Xiaoyang casually put on his clothes, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was Zhu Jiayi, who was already ready to take a machete at the door.
"Why haven't you woken up yet? Didn't you say yesterday that you should go over early today?" Although Zhu Jiayi's words had the meaning of reproach, her tone was very gentle, and she was not uncomfortable to listen to.
"I was so tired yesterday that I didn't have an alarm clock. Ma Xiaoyang said with a grin.
"When I came, I saw that Cheng Zijin had already gone to the plane, when he left, you didn't know, okay, hurry up and clean up, I inquired yesterday, the hunting side is very hard, and if you don't let you use your ability, it will be very troublesome. Zhu Jiayi said a little worriedly.
"How do I feel a little bit of putting the cart before the horse, if I don't use my ability, then many people's abilities have a particularly lethal power, if I don't use it, use a machete to cut it, isn't this taking off my pants and farting, what's the point?" Ma Xiaoyang said with a puzzled face.
"You pack up first, we'll talk as we go on the way. With that, Zhu Jiayi entered the house, then closed the door, Ma Xiaoyang spread his hands and went to the toilet to wash first.
About ten minutes or so, Ma Xiaoyang, who had packed up, held the barbecue in his hand, walked while eating, and arrived at the meeting point with Zhu Jiayi.
At this time, someone came over to count everyone's superpowers, Ma Xiaoyang obediently said that the incremental version of his strength enhancement, the person registered, and left without any extra words.
Not everyone came, Ma Xiaoyang came not early or late, and those who went together today, Huaxia's classmates, as well as Zhang Qiang, Wang Qi, Huang Zhipei, Ding Xiaoming, Rong Zuolong and Gao Sen.
Zhang Qiang's superpower is determined to be charming, and this time through promotion, it seems that the scope and applicable groups have also been enriched a lot, for example, ordinary small animals will be very close to him.
Wang Qi's superpower is a bit of a dick, although there is nothing special in terms of lethality, but, the healing ability is becoming more and more perverted, as long as the things are replenished in time, the amount is enough, cut off an arm, that is, it grows back in minutes.
Huang Zhipei's ability is to form a private space where things can be put in, and the living creature has not tried it, and it feels like Doraemon's pocket.
Ding Xiaoming's nature is extremely fast freezing, and Rong Zuolong's is gravity control, which increases or decreases gravity in a certain area.
As for Gao Sen, everyone is used to calling him abbot, because Gao Sen is basically no different from a monk, and his ability is stealth, but it is a little embarrassing that he can only steal his own body, so many times, it looks like a set of clothes floating in the air, and pretending to be a ghost is a b.
"It's still what I said just now, you said that I'm good, the abbot is good, Wang Qi is good, we don't have any lethality, and it's nothing to cut with a machete, but your ability to control the soil, through improvement, is now simply incomparable, okay, if you use it with all your might, isn't it Fang Yuan's lethality according to the inside, I just can't figure out why you still have to go with us to chop a few spicy and unbearable small vomits." Ma Xiaoyang finished eating the jerky, and then continued to tell Zhu Jiayi. This will divide everyone to rest and wait for Will's organization.
The tongue spoke straight repeatedly. Zhu Jiayi rolled her eyes. "What's wrong. ”
After speaking, he thought about it and explained it to Ma Xiaoyang.
"Actually, I thought about this problem yesterday, let's analyze it in another direction, if one day the abilities are gone, then, the more accustomed to the people who fight with their superpowers, will they encounter problems and die faster?" Zhu Jiayi said seriously.
Ma Xiaoyang thought about it carefully, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
If Zhu Jiayi's speculation is true, does it mean that Carlos sees the future, in fact, in battle, all abilities will disappear? Otherwise, why let everyone use their bodies to fight, instead of superpowers, now everyone's superpowers are actually still in the groping stage, and there are also those who really use them, such as Cheng Zijin, such as Zhu Jiayi, but other people are still somewhat rough.
Theoretically speaking, if there is a battle, it must be this kind of big killer weapon who is familiar with his ability now, and it will be convenient when the time comes, instead of all the people starting from scratch now, then, Cheng Zijin should know about it, so is there anyone else who also thinks of this?
"Don't be too nervous, if the future that Carlos sees is true, we will definitely be rescued, it's just how much it costs in the process, our current physique, compared to ordinary people, is already a superhuman existence, what are we afraid of?" Zhu Jiayi comforted.
After saying this, Zhang Qiang and Gao Sen also surrounded them.
"Sister Jiayi, I'll have to rely on you for a while, if you meet someone who can't get it right, you have to save your life. Wang Qi came over enthusiastically to talk.
"That's for sure, but help, I don't think you need it, and if anything, I promise you'll live the longest. Zhu Jiayi said with a smile.
"Senior Sister Jiayi, the abbot and I don't usually like sports, although my physique is better now, but I have never killed anything, if there is a situation, I will really come to you. Zhang Qiang also smiled.
"Senior sister, ask for a cover. "Tsusa-ryu gets straight to the point. Although he said so in his mouth, he showed a relaxed expression, after all, he also has attack power, and it is no problem to protect himself.
"Senior sister, and me. Huang Zhipei then said.
"Senior sister, tell me if you need it, it should be able to help. Ding Xiaoming's face was full of confidence.
"No problem, but I really suggest that in the past few days of training, I should seriously stimulate my potential, and in the future, when I encounter something, I can rely on myself. Zhu Jiayi didn't tell them what she and Ma Xiaoyang speculated, and she didn't know what the purpose was.
Ma Xiaoyang didn't open his mouth either, of course, the rest of the people didn't expect anything from Ma Xiaoyang, they were all people who had improved their own abilities, and the starting point was the same.
Basically, when everyone was almost cleaned up, Will appeared.
"Before leaving, everyone brings enough rations for today, this time to go is not only hunting, but more to train themselves, first of all, ask for a point, for aggressive superpowers, this time in the hunting process, it is forbidden to use, all the process, must rely on their own ontological quality, don't be afraid of injury, in the future training, Coco will always be accompanied, as long as the head is not screwed off, to ensure that you are still alive the next day. Do you understand!" Will made a speech that was neither serious nor kind, even as he began his hunting journey today.
Ma Xiaoyang's supplements were all handed over to Huang Zhipei, and he even picked some fruits before leaving.
It's overcast today, not much wind, and it feels humid and muggy.
Will tells everyone that today they will not go to the grassland they have been to before, but in a forest not far away, where there are also a number of creatures similar to foxes and rabbits, not for the purpose of hunting, and the task is that each person must kill at least one or more creatures with a knife.
The short distance in Will's mouth, in Ma Xiaoyang's opinion, seems to have other meanings, and it takes an hour to walk, and the appearance of the woods is much the same, but it looks a little more loose here.
"Okay, let's go our separate ways, the weather is bad today, and I can't tell when there will be a rainstorm, so hurry up and act!" Will finished speaking, glaring at everyone present, everyone was very conscious and scattered.
Ma Xiaoyang, Zhu Jiayi and Wang Qi walked together very consciously.
"Who is this Coco?" asked Ma Xiaoyang as he searched for the prey.
"I heard that it was a nurse in a hospital in Spain.,This time I accompanied my parents to Cuba for a tour.,There are two children at home.,Not very old.,It should be twelve or thirteen years old.,My husband heard that it's a government worker.,Her parents died in the last wave of supernatural awakening.,Listen to the people they said.,If it's not for the children at home.,Maybe you can't resist it mentally.,As a result, after the fever.,It's actually awakened to treatment.,As long as the things are replenished enough.,People still have a breath.,You can recover as before.。 It was Wang Qi who explained, and it could be seen that she was relatively sociable, and she knew a lot of things, in other words, she was very gossipy.
"That's not bad, training is a good thing, what kind of after-effects can be left. Ma Xiaoyang thought of himself missing a leg, and when I went, I was still as handsome.
"There's a fox in front, I'll rub, what's the situation, this fox, I'll go, quick, take a knife. "Just as I was thinking about it, I saw a fox in front of me, and it was not like a fox, and it was rushing towards everyone, with long teeth, and the claws on its hands looked very sharp, and if it was bitten or caught, there was no doubt that a piece of meat would be gone.
Ma Xiaoyang shouted, and Zhu Jiayi immediately pulled out the machete from behind her back and looked at the place where Ma Xiaoyang was looking, ready to attack.
Wang Qi, Zhang Qiang, Huang Zhipei, and Gao Sen were a little in a hurry, and in a hurry, the knife in Wang Qi's hand actually fell to the ground without holding it steady, let out a scream, and then bent down to pick it up. Rong Zuolong pretended to be calm, and it seemed that he took out the knife as soon as possible, but his hands and feet were a little trembling, as for Ding Xiaoming, he actually turned around and stepped back.
The fox was menacing, with red eyes and gray fur, which would look like a reflection of oil.
The fox ran quietly, its four paws on the ground, without making any sound, like a bolt of lightning, and flew towards the place where several people were.
Ma Xiaoyang could clearly see the fox's running route, but the knife in his hand didn't listen to the call, his body seemed to be slower than his eyes and brain, and when he saw the fox running in front of him, he only had time to put the knife across his chest and block it.
Zhu Jiayi closed her eyes, her brows tightened, and at the moment when the fox rushed over, she swung her knife hard, and the fox seemed to be prepared, and with a slap of her tail, she slapped Zhu Jiayi's knife to the side, and continued to run towards Wang Qi.
Wang Qi just picked up the knife at the moment, and before he had time to prepare, Gao Sen didn't know if it was luck or what the reason, his face was solemn, he was going to die, and stopped the fox's whereabouts, the fox stepped on Gao Sen's knife with two front paws, and then jumped back, the first contact, even if it was over.
Zhang Qiang didn't seem to have reacted yet, the knife in his hand was clenched, and he looked around nervously. Huang Zhipei seemed to be stunned, and Rong Zuolong swung a knife into the air, while Ding Xiaoming was behind Zhu Jiayi.
"What should I do?" Wang Qi almost cried, but a single contact changed everyone's understanding of hunting this time, the paper talk is empty after all, this kind of fox, just met like this, it almost made everyone run away, let alone die.
When hunting for the first time, everyone showed ease, because at that time, it was more about experimenting with their superpowers, and everyone swarmed up, and some people's superpowers, killing a large area, there was no such opportunity to face to face and fight at close range, so everyone didn't think that hunting was a hard thing, even if they knew that they couldn't use superpowers this time.
But reality and imagination are not the same thing at all, and the imaginary thing where everyone relies on super reflexes and physical fitness to torture their prey now seems to be about to be reversed.
"Don't be nervous, just predict where it's going to go, and it'll be easier. Zhu Jiayi said.
After speaking, the fox pounced towards everyone again, Zhu Jiayi closed her eyes, and guessed the direction of the fox by sensing the footfall of the fox on the ground, and then swung a knife hard.
"Smack!" There was a urge, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that a nail on the fox's front paw was cut off, and the fox also took advantage of the momentum to roll backwards.
"Sister Jiayi, you are amazing!" Wang Qi held back the tears that were about to fall and shouted loudly.
Before the words fell, the fox flew in again, and this time, Zhu Jiayi didn't have a hurry to react at all.
Ma Xiaoyang listened to Zhu Jiayi's words, thoughtfully, and just saw the fox rushing over, and immediately swung his knife away, towards the place where the fox was going to pass, but the fox realized that something was wrong, and stopped abruptly, and actually stepped back a little, but unfortunately the fox was too agile, but fortunately, although it was not cut, it could be regarded as barely alleviating Zhu Jiayi's crisis.
Zhang Qiang and Gao Sen looked at each other, their faces were still nervous, but the knife in their hands was also tightened, and they learned from Ma Xiaoyang, staring at the fox deadly, trying to find its law of action. Huang Zhipei came back to her senses, trembling and trembling, standing in a row, Rong Zuolong looked at everyone like this, and seemed to feel a little like being compared, and comprehended Zhu Jiayi's statement with full attention, and Ding Xiaoming finally stood up at this moment, but he was still one step behind.
But at this time, the fox's eyes rolled, without saying a word, he turned around and ran, and before everyone could react, he disappeared into the jungle with three times and five divided by two.
Looking around, the fifty or sixty people who came this time were all fighting in groups, and in the hot picture, many gangs fought with local animals, because they were still far apart, and they couldn't hear movement, but they could see a lot of humanoid red shadows, spewing out a strong red liquid, and then gradually getting cooler in the air.
At this time, two people appeared, and then one went to heal, and one went up three times and divided five by two, and killed the animal, and then it seemed to teach something, and the people around them nodded frequently. If the guess is right, it should be Will and Coco.
"The fox ran away, what should I do now?" Zhu Jiayi asked Xiang Ma Xiaoyang, "Is there anything else around?"
"Yes, a short distance ahead, there is another one in the grass, but I don't know what it is, this time everyone is ready to try to win one. Ma Xiaoyang fixed his eyes and told everyone.
"Okay, I'll do my best. Although Zhang Qiang felt a little unrelieved, he spoke.
"Me too!" Gao Sen's face was covered with beads of sweat, and the knife in his hand looked a little shaky.
"No problem!" Wang Qi seemed to be the calmest.
"This time it will definitely work. Tsusaron shouted.
Huang Zhipei and Ding Xiaoming didn't say anything, just nodded.
In fact, Ma Xiaoyang's legs and stomach are trembling, to tell the truth, even if there is cocoa to heal the wound, but the pain has to suffer by himself, in fact, for another example, watching ghost movies, knowing that it is fake, or being shocked, this is instinct.
Ma Xiaoyang was able to swing the knife over, it seemed that it was because the crocodile chased and ran away and scared out at the earliest, so he was very understanding of everyone, so he didn't say anything.
I just don't know how Zhu Jiayi could be so bold, the first time she swung a knife, she was too calm.
The second animal, when I arrived, was a huge, rabbit, like a piglet, and everyone thought to themselves, it doesn't matter if the rabbit is anything, after all, it is a herbivore.
Although a few people were still nervous, they were still much more relaxed.
As a result, after the rabbit bit off Wang Qi's two fingers and was stabbed to death by Zhu Jiayi with a stone pillar, everyone was completely sober.
On this island, there is nothing to get along with.
The third animal, or a rabbit, everyone has the experience of the first two, more or less proficient, and finally after being kicked by various kicks, let Gao Sen slash the result.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and in the distance, when Will was heard whistling to assemble, Ma Xiaoyang and a few people, carrying the two rabbits that had been killed, prepared to go back.
"Oh my God, I really can't live this day!" Ma Xiaoyang said as he walked, "The rabbits are so fierce, nothing else, what can be done." ”
"It's okay, slowly, everyone will get better, this is an experience job, in the end, rabbits don't have any special abilities, just better than ordinary rabbits. Zhu Jiayi said lightly.
"The teeth are better!" Wang Qi looked at the two newly grown fingers, and his eyes were filled with a strong murderous aura.
Suddenly, Ma Xiaoyang's heart tightened, as if something had happened.
As a result, when I closed my eyes, I realized that there were six foxes lying on the ground in the grass.
This is also the effect of Ma Xiaoyang's second superpower after awakening, and like Zhu Jiayi, he can sense changes around plants.
"Be careful, there are foxes around, six!" As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyang pulled out his machete, and Zhu Jiayi and the others also put down the rabbit and got ready.
At this moment, Ma Xiaoyang saw that Will was walking towards Ma Xiaoyang with a team of people who had already assembled, not very far away, only one or two hundred meters at most, and under the vision of heat, the grass next to the team, the ground, and the trees were crawling with all kinds of heat sources.
"Zhu Jiayi, quick, tell Will that there are enemies around!" Ma Xiaoyang shouted.
Zhu Jiayi immediately pulled her throat to translate, and Will and the others also stopped, formed a circle, and prepared for battle.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and suddenly there was a thunderclap, and a flash of lightning appeared, illuminating the surroundings, and the animals that were lurking, as if they had received some kind of signal, immediately flew towards everyone.
At this moment, where can you care about the agreement that you can't use superpowers, Zhu Jiayi waved her hand, and a high platform appeared from the ground, dragging a few people to rise five meters high, but this time, it also made Zhu Jiayi's face pale, and it seemed that she should have exhausted her ability.
Ma Ziyang hurriedly gave Zhu Jiayi the jerky and other things she brought, and asked her to replenish them, and the rest of the people followed suit.
"When I grew my fingers just now, I basically finished eating, and there is still a little bit, so I'll keep it for myself, wait a minute, I won't have to drag everyone down. Wang Qi explained.
"It's okay, I don't need that much. Zhu Jiayi said as she quickly ate dried meat, replenishing her physical strength.
The six foxes around flew over, and because of Zhu Jiayi, they were all gathered under the platform, their eyes were red, and they looked straight up.
"The platform is safe for the time being, don't use the ability just yet, wait and see. Zhu Jiayi said weakly.
The crowd could only nod.
At this time, a fox first made an attempt, stepped back, a sprint, claws on the soil, kicked up, and almost jumped to the platform, Ma Xiaoyang's eyes were fast, and he slashed down, and the fox twisted in the air, dodged the machete, and fell to the ground.
The remaining five around, looking like the same, actually flew to the high platform one by one, Zhu Jiayi is recovering, there is not much physical strength, there are four people left Ma Xiaoyang, to see the six foxes, busy and anxious, gradually, it seems that the fox has found a way, every time it comes up, it will leave a little injury to everyone, either scratch it with its paws, or rub it with its mouth, even if it is a tail hit, it has to be beaten before going down.
I don't know how long it took, Ma Xiaoyang, Gao Sen, Zhang Qiang and others were already covered with wounds, although they were not deep, but they kept bleeding, and gradually, they felt that their physical strength was becoming more and more exhausted.
There was another thunderclap in the sky, and the torrential rain began to rain down as if it were piercing the sky.
The six foxes took advantage of another lightning bolt and jumped up at the same time.
Ma Xiaoyang and the others were physically exhausted, their eyes were a little shaky, if they came one by one, they could still take care of it, at this moment, six came up at the same time, only had time to get three down, and watched, the other three foxes jumped onto the platform, their white teeth flashed in the lightning, exhaling hot air, and the nails on their feet were picking at the ground, and they were about to pounce.
The situation was critical, Rong Zuolong did not endure the suggestion of using his body without using his ability, his hands pressed down, and he only saw that the fox on the stage seemed to have been immobilized, and was slowly controlled, his limbs trembled, and his saliva was left out, Ding Xiaoming stepped forward, and a white cold air visible to the naked eye flew out from the palm of his hand, directly freezing a fox into an ice sculpture, and at this time, several red lights from far and near, poof, three foxes rolled and fell off the platform. Immediately afterwards, Zhu Jiayi waved her hand calmly, and countless flying stones were like knives, beating the other two foxes to tatters and killing them with one move.
Will finally arrived, and Ma Xiaoyang's heart relaxed, only to feel that his eyes were blurry.
In the end, Ma Xiaoyang only remembered that in a vague way, a middle-aged woman stepped forward, with a white light in her hand, and gradually fell into a deep sleep in a warm and reassuring atmosphere.
