Chapter 444: Chain Reaction
Whatever the reason, Cheese did follow the leading frog into the Tentacle Forest. They didn't alarm a single tentacle, the problem is, that's not how it works.
This is like a thin-legged mosquito quietly landing on the human skin, it carefully dodges the hair, and the narrow support cannot make the skin alert, but the skin and hair can't feel it, but it falls on the back of the person's hand, and it is still in front of the eyes. This metaphor is naturally not so appropriate, but the meaning to be illustrated is not too much, perception is never one-way.
The cheese was like the mosquito that had bypassed the hair, but they didn't know that they could see it in the towering smoke.
The gaze recognized Cheese, the face he had seen in his fragile childhood, from the bottom of the water, through the distorted light, and he couldn't visually record exactly what he looked like. But it didn't matter, there was more than one human face, and through more sophisticated senses, he could read the mark that was unique to Cheese's body, the mark of extreme danger.
Through the bond with the mother, although the battle on Tianmu is not completely common, the general situation has also shown that this human is extremely dangerous, and his attack on the mother body failed, but this shell, which has just begun to take shape, can hardly be said to be his opponent.
It still needs evolution, it still needs energy, it's not enough, it's not enough!
The approach of Cheese and the others stimulated the heirs in the sandbar, but it was Jung's side who was unlucky. Because of the ontology's thirst for energy, the Great Left Hand, which had been carefully handled by them, went against the norm, and the huge body began to riot in the small space.
This reaction was completely beyond the vampire's expectations, and he was caught off guard, including him, and all the team members near the monster were knocked into the air and slammed backwards to the ground.
"Hum!" the mass of tissue still hasn't evolved into a vocal organ, perhaps because it's completely unnecessary. But even without a throat, the sheer number of air holes on its body and the simultaneous exhaust were enough to make a terrifying sound.
What's more, this time, the milky white smoke that erupted from the air hole was not as simple as exhaust gas, and everyone immediately retreated to the rear, including Jung, who did not need to breathe.
"Alice. "The vampire has lost the cloak that can be used as a shield, but he still stands at the front of the team. There was no tension or panic in those red eyes, as if the changes that had occurred at this time were not important.
"I know, don't rush!" the witch complained, but she dropped the compound crossbow machine she had assembled with great difficulty very neatly, and grabbed a few soft and translucent mucous membrane-like objects from the rucksack that she didn't know how many things it contained and threw them to her companion.
"Put it on your face and you can filter the poison gas. But when the edge of your vision is black, you have to remove it immediately. ”
The mucous membranes feel a little resin-like to the touch, but not as sticky. At this point in the battle, several people did not doubt the help of their companions, and they put mucous membranes on their faces. Strange to say, what Alice gave was more like an extract for a noblewoman to use for facial care than a so-called mask, and except for a momentary feeling of closure when it was first applied to the face, there was no discomfort quickly.
However, it is only limited to the touch, probably to prevent the poisonous gas from flowing into the human body through the mouth, nose, ears, eyes and other fragile organs, it is completely closed in the nose and mouth, but the structure uses a large number of dense holes, so that the person has to use force to complete the breathing. As for speech, it becomes difficult to make a voice because it restricts the movement space of the jaw. Obviously, this construction is based on safety as a priority, and does not take into account the need for communication between wearers.
Witchers are the quintessential lone rangers and often have their equipment for personal safety. Alice will carry so many anti-poison mucous membranes on her body at one time, which has already taken into account the needs of team action, and it is really difficult for her to prepare anti-poison equipment that can not affect communication.
Moreover, if there are such measures, they may not really work. If the essence of the white smoke is a corrosive gaseous substance, let alone the mucous membranes, unless it is a special material protective clothing specially designed to fight, it is all in vain. Fortunately, after Jung ventured into the white smoke and did not dissolve and corrode, the worst could have not happened.
"Boom!" were blocked out of the white fog, and all they could hear was the sound coming from the fog and the tremor of the floor beneath their feet. Several people made a defensive posture one after another, in case the behemoth monster rushed over under the cover of the thick fog.
The imaginary shadow did not appear, only the constant tapping and tremors occurred according to a certain pattern. Jung suddenly thought of something, his eyes widened suddenly, "Oh no, it wants to escape!"
It's not a slow response, but it's a bit late for the situation at hand. The vampire rushed towards the monster with the white mist, and although the other people heard Jung's angry shouts, they were afraid of the white mist for a moment and did not dare to go with it. They could only stand on the edge of the white mist and watch nervously.
Atta's hand tightened on the hilt of her sword, and she almost filled it in when it was Kailath who grabbed her from behind. How terrifying the evil god is, they have all seen it on Tianmu, and the twisted heir born by the terrifying evil god will not be much easier to deal with. They weren't vampires, and their flesh and blood were too much to suffer against the evil gods, especially Atta, who was already fragile in her human body.
The wait was torturous, and a few minutes after Jung rushed into the white mist, just as the members of the team began to consider whether to further test the nature of the white mist, the fog voluntarily receded in the direction it came.
Immediately after, there was a crisp sound, listening to the movement, no need to ask, it was obviously the great left hand that chiseled through the floor of this layer, and those white mist were also attracted to the wider space for this reason.
In Jung's absence, the team lost its command, and although each member of the team had their own ideas, they could take into account their companions around them, and for a moment no one could really decide what the team would do next. In the end, Atta made up her mind, she tore off the mask that hindered her voice, and walked forward resolutely with her magic sword in her hand, she didn't say anything big about her companions behind her, but just left a sentence lightly.
"We can't let that thing run out into the streets. ”
This sentence is enough to move most of the people here. It was Kalath's duty to be the guardian knight of Atta, and he had to go wherever she went. As a witcher, Alice has a natural hatred for all monsters that threaten ordinary people, she hates vampires, and naturally she is not used to seeing that mass of sarcoma, especially after understanding the biological mechanism of the great left hand, she already knows that this is the kind of target that must be completely eradicated.
The rest of Rotten Tooth and Joe, Rotten Tooth's eyes rolled, and his gaze frowned as Atta's back was about to disappear into the smoke, and followed. The one-armed arena fighter saw that everyone had chosen to move forward, and his steps also took a step.
Now is not the time to think about how to trap this thing, a gentle strategy will not stop a beast desperate for freedom. Only violence, only furious attacks and death-inflicting pain can bring it to its knees.
With Cheese's actions, the battles in Riverrun are forced to heat up.
