Chapter 16: A Woman's Persistence

A gust of wind swept over the excited woman's head, and then the necklace was snatched away, and the black shadow that rushed over jumped lightly and returned to the shadow of the roof, while the excited woman raised her empty right hand, completely stunned in place.

Some people were looking up in a panic, some were looking for cover around, and the remaining woman was screaming and running to her stunned companion, holding the stunned woman's shoulders and shaking gently: "Katie, Katie, wake up, are you okay?" ”

However, it was okay that she didn't shake, and with a slight shake, she brought Katie's raised right hand, and a red line immediately appeared on her right forearm. There was a liquid spilling out of the red line, followed by blood spraying wildly, and the upper and lower arms were staggered, and they fell to the ground with a snap.

"Ah~~~" The woman who shook Katie screamed, looked at the two male companions in panic, and shouted loudly, "Elvis, Luke, Katie, ahhh ”

The scream was louder, because as soon as the woman who was sprayed with blood turned around, she saw that the black shadow had fallen from the sky again, directly behind her companion, and the nails of the five fingers of her right hand were stretched out like five sharp blades, which had almost exceeded the speed of visual capture, and slammed into Elvis's back.

A claw digs into the heart.

Elvis is still wearing yesterday's clothes, but he no longer has yesterday's stubbornness, he seems to want to look back again, and want to leave the place to dodge, and want to wave a weapon to fight back, but the speed of the monster has exceeded the limit of ordinary human reactions, and none of the three movements can be made, so he can only let the monster's claws scratch his back.

"Qiang", the sudden sound of gold and iron, woke several people from despair, and the four of them saw that at the moment when the claws were about to pierce the heart, a figure appeared next to Elvis like a ghost, and the two daggers crossed left and right, stuck between the fingers of the monster from the side, and the claws that were moving extremely fast stopped in the air. The pause lasted only a moment, and the dagger was defeated in the battle of strength, and the dagger, along with the sudden appearance of the figure, was knocked away by the force of the claws, flying several meters before falling to the ground.

But the claws also scratched empty.

At the moment when the claw was forced to stop, a whip crept in through the doorway, grabbed Elvis by the waist and pulled him away, and the subsequent claws only had time to tear the corner of his clothes, and he was thrown far away by the whip, slamming into the wall, and with a burst of dust, he also slid off the wall and sat down on the ground.

"Ah~" another scream, this time replaced with Katie with a broken arm, the sharp pain of the broken arm had just hit at this time, she held her bare arm and fell to the ground screaming: "Shirley, Shirley, my hand, help me." ”

"Whoosh", the figure of the monster that was frustrated in the surprise attack flickered, and jumped into the darkness again, and Babu, who had just failed to fight against the defeat and was knocked away, had returned to the battlefield at some point, and appeared behind the monster, and two daggers were inserted, but unfortunately the monster had dodged in time at this time, so that the dagger only stabbed the afterimage.

"You, ah, Elvis, ah, Katie......" The last Luke finally reacted, and before he could say a complete sentence, a whip had already whipped on him, staggering him a few steps, and fell to the ground, and in his original position, the monster's figure flashed, disappeared immediately after swooping into the air, and returned to the roof.

"Whew!" This time the monster didn't attack, but hung upside down on the roof, letting out a piercing scream that was almost enough to burst the eardrums, and some of the glass hangings in the ballroom shattered at the same time, and the glass powder rained down on the ground.

This cry was much more exciting than the screams of Shirley and Katie, everyone present only felt a splitting headache, and Katie, who was already not lightly injured, oozed a few wisps of blood from the corners of her eyes and ear holes, covered her ears with one hand, and her expression was extremely painful to the point of distortion.

Before the screams stopped, the monster had already swooped down in the air again, straight to Katie, whose face was covered in blood. The monster came and went like the wind, and several movements before and after were only done between breaths, almost at the same time, and this time, no one could stop its attack anymore.

Yes.

With the brass finger tiger's fist tiger wind, Yuan Neng used the finger tiger to form a solid shield on the fist surface, claws and fists clashed, making a crisp sound of metal impact, the monster was vibrated by the huge force, took a few steps backwards and landed on all fours, stopped for the first time, and the fist-swinging Aurora shook his wrist violently, and there were a few more obvious red marks on the back of his hand.

"Whatever you call it, you can beat it, if you can't beat it, shut up for me, and give me a whip if you call it again."

Monica couldn't stand the howls of several merchants one after another, and whipped them in front of one of them, so that the four of them immediately fell silent, covering their mouths and not daring to come out. Barbu and Aurora, on the other hand, are always facing the monsters, and all three of them are moving slowly, and they may suddenly erupt at any time.

That's when I finally had the opportunity to see the environment and the monsters in full.

This is a two-storey ballroom, most of the space is an open dance floor, there are several small rooms in the corner, one of which has an open door, you can see the dressing table and floor-to-ceiling mirror inside, it should be a dressing room or something like that, this monster that suddenly appeared, probably has been in the dressing room before, and finally revealed its true face.

The monster is a female mutant with a shriveled body and a withered appearance like a dried corpse, wearing a gorgeous purple dress, I don't know how long it has been, it still remains basically intact, only a few breaks, and on the foot is a pair of black high heels, the shiny upper is timeless, and there is no trace of time. The heart-shaped ruby that she had just snatched was hanging around her neck, and it didn't know whether it was intentional or not, and its claws reached out to its chest from time to time to touch the ruby.

"It's too fast, I'm going to fight it to the death." Aurora lowered her body and roared a few times from time to time, as if she was more like a beast than the dry corpse opposite, and while confronting each other, she couldn't help but ask the question in her heart, "Why did you suddenly rush out." ”

"I also wanted to watch a play, but suddenly I found that my heart was not as hard as I imagined." Babu started suddenly, but immediately retreated at great speed, and was pulled by his actions, and the monster's claws moved and lowered, and his body shook back and forth.

The timing was excellent, the monster's shaking had just begun, and the claws were on the way to be lowered, when the sharp whip broke through the air sounded at the right time, and the long whip came rushing close to the ground, tightly wrapping around its shriveled left calf.

At the same time as the whip was wrapped, Babu, who had just started and stopped urgently, started again at great speed after the emergency stop, stomped on the ground with his right foot, and his body told him to rush forward, appearing on the monster's side in the blink of an eye, and the dagger was inserted into the monster's side ribs at the same time.

The monster's instinctive form stretched out to dodge, but it was restrained by the whip, and the dagger had pierced into its body, but nothing came out of the wound except for a burst of rancid smell. The monster didn't care about being attacked, and while it couldn't move, its two claws were raised at the same time, and they came back at a speed beyond normal sense, crossing and slashing across Babu's throat.

"Poof", there was a soft sound, and Babu clutched his throat and staggered back, and only then did the fist with the fingered tiger hurry up, and although it was a step late, it still smashed into the monster's face, making a dilapidated sound when the drum surface was hammered. But with only one punch, the monster had already broken free from the confinement of its legs, rushed back to the roof, and continued to run along the wall at high speed, dazzling the people below, unable to keep up with its shape.

"Hey, you ......" Aurora was startled by Babu, afraid that the scene on his arm would be repeated and his head would slip like that, but Babu only took two shots and a few steps before lowering his hand, and there was no sign of injury on his neck.

"It's not worthy of hurting me yet."

Babu suddenly jumped back two steps out of the protective range of the others, let down all her guards, and bared her neck at the monster, letting out a provocative roar, and at the same time making a movement of teeth and claws, which reminded Monica of Anna. Seeing that Babu was alone and showed all his weaknesses, the monster immediately lunged down in the air, its body still in the air, its claws already shining.

Hit the target.

The claws entered from above, cut diagonally through the body of the Báb, and then went out from under the sides, as if the Báb had been cut into several pieces, but when the claws left the Báb's body, the Báb was intact, and even the clothes were not cut. But he didn't make a counterattack, but kept making provocative gestures at the monster, making the monster extremely irritable.

Monica and Aurora, who launched a counterattack.

As soon as Babu retreated to lure the enemy, Monica's whip had already popped out again, and then it tightened violently, tying the monster's legs tightly together, and at the same time jumping into the air, sparing the high beam, and using the force of the body falling, the shriveled monster was forced to hang upside down.

Aurora was a step slower, but at least she caught up, and she rose into the air, following the monster closely, banging and banging several punches in succession, all of which slammed into the monster's head. But the monster's head shook with the power of the fist, and the fist that was enough to crack the stone didn't seem to have any effect, and after a few punches, the monster's legs shrank, and with the power of the whip ascended to the roof, and he actually hung upside down on the roof with his shoes on, easily broke free from the whip, and disappeared into the shadows again.

"It's a good idea, do it again."

Aurora bent over like a furry cat, staring at the monsters that appeared around her, not even daring to stagger her eyes, but only turned her back to Babu and whispered, and Babu and Monica were not far behind her, the triangular occupancy of the triangular position, facing in three directions, covering every corner of the ballroom.

As for the four merchants, they had already retrieved their severed hands, and they were trembling and huddled together, not even daring to come out, lest they attract the attention of the monster and make it suddenly turn its target to this side.

But the three of Babu didn't have this to worry about, they knew that the monster wouldn't dare, and it could be seen from the monster's performance that it had suffered a little bit of a loss after two consecutive rounds of luring the enemy, and it didn't dare to distract itself, but this was also a troublesome matter, because being stared at by such a monster that came and went like the wind and lightning, everyone was only half a second away from death.

"Don't even think about it, I'll die if I do it again." Babu touched the banishment brooch on his chest, and used it three times in ten days, the energy accumulated in it has completely dried up, and the next recovery will be at least two or three days later, and there is no need to think about it again in a short time. But there was no time to explain at this time, and Babu could only stare at the monster and ask, "What about you, didn't you say you could touch it?" ”

"This thing is too troublesome, it deserves to be a commander-level mutant, it is not strong in attack and defense, but flexibility and speed, as long as it is prepared, even if my fist hits, it can twist its body to dissolve most of the power by speed, and the effect is really poor."

"I have an idea, maybe it's okay, you guys are going to cooperate." Seeing the monster circling around the ballroom, it seemed to be getting impatient, and with a low growl coming out of his mouth, Babu reached out behind him, "Monica, bag." ”

"I warn you, if you dare to break it, you just wait to be made into a bag."

Taking advantage of the monster's opportunity to bypass her own area, Monica quickly took off her handbag and handed it to Babu, who didn't know if it was in the wrong position, and took it several times after a long time, and let the handbag dangle in the air for a long time before taking it, and the monster paused obviously when he saw this scene, and once again reached out to touch the heart-shaped necklace around his neck.

"Ugh." Babu sighed softly and said helplessly, "Monica, you women's persistence...... It's scary. ”

"Huh?" Before Monica could react, the monster suddenly moved, and no one showed any flaws, but the monster still jumped on the roof, forcibly soared to the maximum speed, as if staring at Babu, and dived at him as fast as possible, so fast that it had even dragged out an afterimage behind him, just like when it attacked Katie among the merchants just now.

However the Báb made only one move, lost.

The beautiful brand-name handbag was thrown far away by him against the ground, and the monster was still in mid-air, regardless of the clatter of the shriveled body, he suddenly forcibly reversed the direction and chased after the back of the handbag, and the last came first, and the claws were about to touch the handbag, and the monster had even begun to howl.

However, at that moment, a pair of long legs flew from the side, kicked it in the face, and knocked it to the ground, followed by a pair of fists, several punches in succession, all of which hit the monster's head several times in succession.

The monster's body slammed into a wrench, and ten sharp claws slashed around its body, forcing back the two women who had punched and kicked each other, and then grew its mouth and spewed out a sharp and piercing roar again, which was enough to make people's hearts sway.

But halfway through the roar came to an abrupt halt, for the Báb had done something else.

He raised his hand and threw a handful at the monster.

It was an inverted cone-shaped white crystal, crystal clear, shining, and on the round cone, every edge reflected a soft light, and it looked so lovely. It was the same diamond that Babu found inside a box when he first opened the bank safe.

The diamonds were all in very good shape, and the largest one was almost the size of a little fingertip, and it fell to the ground with a crackling bounce and rolled all over the ground.

The monster's attention was immediately attracted again, and its body moved and even wanted to pounce, but it was only halfway through its action when its punches and feet arrived again, and it was another few punch-to-flesh attacks.

At the same time there was Babu, who did not touch the monster, but only passed by it.

The monster was distracted by Monica and Aurora, and it wasn't until it had redistanced itself from Babu that it realized something was wrong and let out a roar full of rage. Because at the moment when he passed by just now, the ruby necklace on his chest had already reached Babu's hand.

As Babu placed the necklace on the ground, the dagger in his right hand was raised, and he poked it down with a big smile on his face.
