Chapter 074: Cave Heaven (4)
In the Whispering Mountains, two people are running in a hurry in the forest.
"No, Professor, I can't run!"
It was a Western beauty with long wavy blond hair who spoke, but at this time the beauty was not in a good state, her hunting suit was covered with mud, and her face was cut by a tree branch with several small wounds, and the blood oozing from the wounds had coagulated, forming bright red thread marks.
"Catherine, hold on, we just need to run out of the forest and be saved!"
The man who was called the professor was a wrinkled old man in his fifties, a small man with black-rimmed glasses, who said to the blonde beauty as he ran.
Between the trees behind the two of them, a dark shadow kept approaching like the wind, and every time this black shadow flashed through the forest, it caused the branches and bushes to shake.
"No, Professor Macade, I really can't run!" said the blonde woman named Catherine, who stopped where she was, bent over, and breathlessly.
"Catherine......" The old professor also stopped, his physical strength had long been exhausted, and he had been relying on a will to survive to support, and now seeing his students stop, a sense of despair was born in his heart.
"Professor, run! The monster is about to catch up, and I'll stop you here for a while. Catherine took a deep breath, pulled out a revolver from her waist, and said to the old professor.
"I can't run away—" Professor Mader smiled bitterly, he found a tree and sat down slowly, leaning his back against the trunk, and said weakly, "The speed of the monster is too fast, it is impossible to get rid of it, and besides, I don't have the strength to keep running!"
"Damn Jairo, it's all to blame on this greedy fellow!" Catherine said through gritted teeth when she heard the old professor's answer, and began to cry bitterly as she spoke.
"Well, Jairo is dead, Catherine ......," Professor Mader reassured, "besides, I was the one who proposed this place in the first place, and if I had to say sorry, I would have said I'd be the one who had to say sorry. ”
"Woo...... Damn Gero, damn the monster!......" Catherine could no longer listen to the old professor's reassurance, and she wept loudly as she cursed the monster and the man named Jairo.
Suddenly, there was a strange cry in the forest, which was both like a frog and a cricket, and when Professor Mader heard this sound, his face suddenly turned pale, and Catherine stopped crying when she heard this strange cry.
The two looked at each other cautiously, and Professor Mader took two steps back, hiding behind a tree, while Catherine clenched her revolver in her hand.
"Whoa—goo-goo-" There was another strange cry, and there was a sudden commotion in the bushes not far in front of Catherine, as if it had been blown by a strong wind, and then a black shadow swooped down on her!
"Ah——!h
Bullets erupted from the muzzle of the gun with a flash of fire, and Catherine shot all the bullets in one go, so nervous that even though the firing pin made a hollow sound, her fingers still tightened the trigger and showed no signs of releasing it.
"Catherine, be careful!"
Just as Catherine was in a frenzy, Professor Mad, who was behind her, suddenly shouted loudly.
Catherine finally regained some of her senses when she heard Professor Mad's shout, and she let go of her finger gripping the trigger and scanned her surroundings in alarm.
"Professor!" Catherine cried out in disbelief, "Did I kill it?"
"No, Catherine, it's just playing tricks on us, bullets don't hit it at all!" replied Professor Maced in despair.
"Wow-goo-goo-goo-"
As if to confirm Professor Mad's words, a dark shadow flashed through the treetops above Catherine's head, letting out a strange scream.
Catherine jerks her head up, only to see nothing, and under the torment of horror and despair, this blonde beauty finally collapses!
"Ahh
"Goo-" The monster seemed to understand Catherine's words, and slowly stepped out of the canopy and stood on the branch in front of Catherine's eyes.
It was a dried corpse, a weathered corpse, with only keratinized flesh and dry bones all over its body, its skull deflated, and only two black and terrifying hollows left in its eyes, but it still had a pair of neat teeth on its mouth.
Catherine's face turned pale when she saw this monster, and she seemed to be choked by the neck at this time, and her mouth was wide open, but she couldn't shout.
The dried corpse on the branch grinned, and laughed like a human, Catherine panicked, and the queen retreated, only to accidentally fall to the ground!
The dried corpse in the tree seemed to have had enough, and jumped lightly towards the place where Catherine fell, and when he saw this scene, Professor Mader let out an exclamation, and Catherine also looked desperate and closed her eyes!
Choking ——!
A crisp sword roar suddenly sounded in the mountains and forests, and for a while, everything was silent, the heavens and the earth seemed to pause for a moment, and an eternal sword light filled the entire mountain forest!
In mid-air, the dried corpse that jumped down from the tree seemed to be aware of it, and opened its mouth unwillingly, but it couldn't make a sound, the sword light flashed, and under the sharp sword qi, the body of the dry corpse slowly turned into dust and dissipated with the wind......
"The gods are above!" Professor Mad's mouth shouted as he stared blankly at the dried corpse that had turned to dust.
Catherine's eyes were still closed, so she didn't realize what was happening, but Professor Mader on the side could see it clearly, he saw a flash of light, and the terrifying monster turned to ashes, it was like a divine punishment to save them!
Stomp –
There was a sound of footsteps in the bushes, and Professor Mader turned his head to see five strangely dressed men slowly walking towards the area.
Professor Mader looked closely, and among the five men, there were three old men, one middle-aged, and one young, with yellow skin and black eyes, who should belong to a race he had never seen before.
That's right, it was Zhang Shuo and his party who rushed to the scene, the place where they appeared was not far from here, after hearing Catherine's gunshot, Zhang Shuo immediately ran over with people, maybe other people don't know what this sound represents, but Zhang Shuo, a modern person, can't understand the gunshots anymore.
At first, Zhang Shuo was worried that the person who was shot was Fu Chan, but when they arrived at the scene, they found that Fu Chan was watching the play with relish.
At this time, Zhang Shuo and the others happened to see the dry corpse jumping down from the tree, and Yuan Xiu couldn't get used to seeing monsters hurting people, so he made a decisive move and cut the dried corpse into ashes with a sword.
