Chapter 18: The Avengers

"Uh...... Your mission is to take out that mutant woman? โ€

The ground was shaking, and it was getting worse, and the Bรกbu above were already a little unsteady. Moreover, the scope of the tremors continued to expand, from the bottom of the Western-style mansion to other buildings, and finally to cover the entire estate. Several people had been so shocked that they were about to vomit out, and they didn't even dare to say anything for fear of biting their tongues, so they could only crawl outward with their hands and feet, only Anna was unaffected, hanging on Babu's body like a koala, sniffing and not knowing what they were sniffing, but there was no worry or fear in their expressions, just a little confused.

"Mutant woman? How can it be so detailed, I only know that it is a commander-level mutant, it should be the one just now. โ€

The surroundings were slight, the middle was violent, and the location of the source of the vibration was clearly placed, and several people worked hard to move outward, and the courtyard wall that had protected the manor had become an obstacle for several people to get out at this time, and they held on to the courtyard wall and twisted sideways for a long time before they got out of the crack in the half-open gate.

"Then this thing definitely won't be a Dominion-level mutant now."

Outside the courtyard gate, the four merchants of the previous caravan were lucky, they had already crossed the trench for some distance, and at this time they also found an anomaly behind them, and were looking back, and even pointed in the direction of the manor as if they were going to come back, until they saw that the group had come out of the crack in the door, and was waving at them to signal them to hurry up, and then they began to evacuate again.

"No kidding, Commander? This momentum is believed by people at the leader level, how can it be that there is only the commander level. โ€

There was a loud bang behind him, and a small building had collapsed in the tremor, billowing smoke and dust coming out of the courtyard behind it, blending in the red mist and soaring into the sky, connecting with the ashes scattered in the sky, making the world even more misty.

"So, do you want to fight?"

In the courtyard, an eagle's cry suddenly sounded. The volume was not too loud, and normally it should not be heard out of the yard, but the howl was extremely penetrating, and it was as if the whole edge could be heard, and Babu and Monica even felt that it could be heard farther than the two loud noises that had exploded yesterday.

"a fart, I'm going to hit you, who knows what it is."

After the howl, the ground shook more and more violently, even the courtyard walls had begun to collapse, and a strong sense of oppression came from behind, as if there were countless people there who were whispering, crying, calling softly, and whispering softly.

"Then why don't you hurry down and run by yourself, you two are still hanging here and talking nonsense."

Monica carried one in one hand and strode through the violent earthquake, trotting all the way over the only path that ran through several trenches. The shaking was so terrible, and the trench was full of spikes, and if they fell, there would be at least a few more blood holes in their bodies, and it was a dream for Babu and Aurora to run through. But in front of Monica's new shoes, this level of shaking was almost like walking on the ground, and she easily carried three loads through the toughest trench area.

"Ah~~"

The familiar screams came again, and when I heard them, it was the four screaming merchants in front of me.

Looking up, the four of them were more than 100 meters away, but for some reason they had stopped, and they were looking back in the direction of the manor, and the uninjured female Shirley was pointing to the manor and screaming loudly. The screaming never stopped, and after pointing for a few seconds, she suddenly put her head in her hands, as if she had lost her mind, and ran blindly around screaming, running back and forth, and bumped into her companion several times.

Elvis and Luke tried to hold her, but she was like an enemy, punching and kicking the two people who stopped her, and even biting wildly, the two men who bit were screaming with blood on their hands, which was even more noisy than in the manor just now, only the injured Katie did not scream, because she was already paralyzed, sitting on the ground with her knees facing inward and her feet facing outward, pointing behind her back and opening her mouth wide but unable to make a sound, and the ground was soon wet.

The reaction was too intense, so that Babu and Monica understood that it was estimated that the monster behind it had revealed its true face, and several businessmen lost their minds in fear when they saw the monster, but fortunately their resistance was high enough, if they were ordinary people, it is estimated that they would have mutated due to mental breakdown. Since this visual impact will have to be suffered sooner or later, it is better to ...... Monica and Barbu look at each other and look over their heads at the same time.

In the courtyard where the original manor had collapsed, in the billowing smoke and dust, the two saw a huge spherical black shadow.

The black sphere is a behemoth, nearly 100 meters in diameter, and faintly, you can see that the surface of the black ball is very irregular, as if dozens of arms matching the size of the body are stretched out, and these arms more than 100 meters long are waving around, scratching, as if they are greedily plundering anything that can be plundered.

Several people, including Aurora, were pale-faced, and their eyesight allowed them to see through the smoke and dust, and they could already see what the monster actually was.

The so-called black ball is a giant corpse ball composed of thousands or tens of thousands of corpses, dozens of human-like arms stretch out around the corpse ball, some arms and palms support its sphere like feet, allowing it to advance and retreat freely, and the other part of the arm rummages through the corpses of a small number of mutants in the ruins of the building, and each time they find one, they grab it and throw it into their open mouth.

On the oblique top of the corpse ball is a huge human face that is magnified in equal proportions, and from a distance, it looks like a middle-aged man with a pretty good appearance, but just one face occupies two-thirds of the corpse ball. At this time, the big face was already distorted, and the mouth with a diameter of tens of meters was open and closed, chewing constantly, as if it was about to devour everything.

The monster was covered in semi-congealed corpse fluid, a translucent gel, and when blown by the wind, it was surrounded by the peculiar stench of corpse decay, which was disgusting.

"I can't do it anymore, it's disgusting."

Under the double impact of sight and smell, Aurora was the first to be unable to withstand it, squatting on the ground and retching loudly, but only a few mouthfuls of bitter water were spit out, Monica and Babu were a little better but limited, and they endured the vomiting sensation, picked up Aurora and ran.

"You're going to be swallowed by that thing, and when you swallow it, you're going to stay with that thing for the rest of your life."

Seeing that Aurora vomited and weakened, Babu shouted encouragement beside her, although the content of the encouragement was debatable, but the effect was quite effective, Aurora was shocked, and after a punch on his shoulder, there was no need for the two of them to stand up anymore, and ran faster than them.

"Whoop", another penetrating eagle chirp, followed by a loud bang, one of the 'arms' of the corpse ball slapped on the ground, and the ground shook the mountain and the gravel splashed.

After the loud noise, with a chaotic clanging and clattering sound, the corpse ball leaned on the support of the 'arm' below, not only supported the body, but also moved, and the movement was very slow at first, but as it became more and more proficient, the movement became faster and faster, just watch dozens of arms take turns scratching the ground, making a huge pile of corpses run on the ground, staring at the face and howling from time to time, it is as desperate as a nightmare.

"Smack", Babu and his party quickly caught up with the four merchants who were still in chaos, and Monica slapped Shirley in the face who was running around, completely losing control of her power, and half of her face was swollen. The heavy blow woke up the crazy Shirley completely, covered her face and shook her head, looked around in confusion, and at the moment she saw the pile of corpses, she was shocked, as if she suddenly remembered everything, screamed, and ran in the direction of the entrance and exit of the city with her head in her hands.

Elvis and Luke quickly picked up Katie, who only had one hand, and didn't bother to thank Monica, and immediately chased Shirley with Katie left and right, and Babu and the others simply followed behind the merchants, seeing that the entrance and exit of the world had appeared at the end of the field of vision.

"Whew." With the whining of the wind, after a roar, a boulder was thrown far away and smashed near the position where several people had just run, which made several people a little surprised, and couldn't help but look back in the direction of the monster.

In fact, it's quite far, the two sides have at least opened up a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, and the height of the corpse pile is nearly 100 meters, so a few people can still see it clearly, but the few people who escaped are all ordinary heights, and a few hundred meters away is an inconspicuous dot, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be able to attract the attention of monsters, unless......

"I see that one of the hands on top of its head seems to be holding something all the time." Monica put away the binoculars she was carrying, and never stopped.

"What's that?"

"A headless corpse, purple-clad one." Monica said as her and Babu's eyes fell on Aurora's waist, where a smashed, shriveled head hung from it.

"Huh? It's staring at this thing? Aurora pointed to the skull.

"No, I think it's staring at us." Monica smiled wryly, "What's going to happen to that female mutant in the end?" โ€

"One last dance with my husband." Babu sighed, "Now that she's succeeded, she should thank us." โ€

"What do you mean?" Aurora looked confused.

"This thing is eyeing us for revenge...... Be careful. โ€

From a distance, the big mouth on the top of the monster's head opened, and then a mass of corpses that had just been eaten by him spewed out, and the corpses were faster and farther than the boulder just now, and smashed into the back of several people less than twenty meters. After hitting the ground, the corpse exploded casually with a bang, and the huge explosion force blew the ground out of a shallow crater, and the explosion covered a distance of nearly ten meters near the landing point, and the edge of the explosion was quite close to several people.

The strong smell of corpses came to the face, and even made people feel dizzy, the overly stimulating smell had overwhelmed the ubiquitous fishy sweet smell on the edges, and seeing another corpse shell explode in the back, Babu had no doubt that it would not take a few times for the corpses to accurately fall on the heads of several people.

Fortunately, the entrance of the world is not far away, and you can already vaguely see Aurora's subordinates guarding the entrance, those terrifying howls and sudden explosions just now, as well as the boulders and corpses flying all over the sky, have brought huge psychological pressure to several ordinary people, but led by Little John, the four subordinates are still guarding around the entrance and exit inch by inch, and none of them escaped in advance.

However, as if he had suddenly thought of something, Babu's face changed, and he shouted loudly as he ran: "Monica, do you remember those people around Judy back then? โ€

Monica's face also changed: "Katie, they're all going crazy when they see it, so these ordinary people...... Woe to them, Aurora, and run as fast as you can, while they can't see the monster clearly, and let them hurry back to the world. โ€

"Huh? Why......"

Before Aurora could ask, Monica had already pushed her behind her back, sending her several meters away, urging, "Hurry up, I'll explain later." โ€

Aurora scratched her head, but still accelerated violently, and the whole person rushed forward like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, she surpassed the merchants in front of her, leaving only a back.

"Ah, wait for us." A few merchants were still so noisy, seeing that Aurora suddenly overtook them, they thought they were going to be dropped, and kept wailing, but the speed increased a lot out of thin air, but the corpse shells behind them were getting closer and closer, but the fleeing team was also getting closer and closer to the entrance.

Aurora at the front rode to the dust, and was almost at the entrance, only to hear her shout a few words to her subordinates, although they didn't know why, but still closed their eyes according to her orders, and groped for the entrance to the world. Although ordinary people can't sense the location of the present world at all, after trying a few more times near the entrance, they can always bump into the mouth, and only one person opened his eyes a slit out of curiosity and secretly glanced back.

It was still too far away to see the expression on his face, and I couldn't hear his reaction, only that everyone else had crashed into the present world, but he kept his head turned his head to peek, and froze in place, letting Aurora run towards him while urging him without any reaction.

No, there is a reaction.

The man's body suddenly exploded, his clothes and skin shattered, and his body turned into a ball of flesh with no hands or feet, with a human head on top of it, and rolled towards Aurora as he wailed. Aurora just wanted to rush over to support her men, but she heard Monica shouting loudly behind her, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, it seemed that a lifetime of intelligence was activated at this moment, and she jumped and turned around continuously, opening up a distance of more than ten meters.

"Bang", the meat ball exploded, bursting into a sky full of flesh and blood, and a shallow pit was blown out of the ground. Although there was no extreme stench this time, the pungent smell of blood and the smell of internal organs was also very uncomfortable, and the ground was covered with fragments of flesh and internal organs, and it looked like hell.

Aurora was a little stunned, but fortunately, at this time, a group of people made a commotion, and seeing that the pile of corpses behind him spit out a mass of corpses, Babu didn't wait for others to sense the entrance of the world, and rushed directly towards the sky-high light curtain he saw in front of him. The others immediately followed, rushing in, and then saw only a flash of light at the entrance, and a group of people had disappeared from the entrance.

Boom, the corpse smashed exactly where several people disappeared, and the stench immediately filled, but only a second away, the large group of people had already escaped.

"This, this ......"

The three subordinates who ran into the world first looked around blankly, and found that there was somehow missing a companion in the team, and they were a little unclear for a while, Aurora patted the shoulders of several people with a gloomy face, and said in a low voice: "Don't look for it, he can't come back." What the hell is going on, you knew in advance that he was going to mutate? โ€

"Of course, if you want to venture deep into the edge, you need to have at least some level of deep understanding of the edge." And rightly so, as it really is, "For people who are not confrontational, any fear and panic is what accelerates their mutation, which is why you should call them back quickly." But anyway, he finally escaped, but what about the guy outside? โ€

"It has nothing to do with us, let the old thing worry about it itself." Aurora didn't care at all, but after thinking about it, he explained, "It's not a big problem to put it away, it can't always be at the door, even if it guards the door, the entrance and exit will move by itself, not to mention that there is an edge switch every once in a while, as long as you don't enter and exit from this side recently, it's fine...... Probably. โ€
