Yan Jingxing ran wildly on the eaves shrouded in night.

The narrow wall is only a step wide, but he still walks like a flying horse, like a martial arts master in a martial arts novel who shuttles back and forth between the eaves, or a superhero who leaps and runs between the rooftops of the city.

The color of the split-headed dog's coat is pitch black and shiny, almost blending into the night, and only the undulation of the ridge outline can be seen when running; But Yan Jingxing's gaze was always firmly fixed on this monster's body, and he never missed a moment, so he was able to follow closely.

In just a few seconds, the man and beast who jumped out of the glass window chased and fled, and they had already run to the side building adjacent to the main floor of the ward.

The black dog runs, leaps, and easily jumps over the "trench" that is difficult for ordinary people to cross, and falls on the opposite rooftop - if you accidentally slip your foot, you have to fall down five stories to the height of a building, which is enough to kill people.

And Yan Jingxing, who was following it, also saw this "trench", but his steps did not hesitate for a moment, but increased again.

Without any protection, Yan Jingxing strode forward, one foot on the guardrail, the other foot had already stepped on the ground, and he jumped towards the empty place in front of him without hesitation.

At this moment, the feet of the darkness become an abyss, and when you look down, it makes people dizzy, like falling into the void.

But Yan Jingxing's movements and postures are so natural:

He opened his arms and listened to the whistling wind in his ears, and fell into the night with gravity, like a bird flying in the sky, and even felt comfortable.

Weightlessness, emptiness, acceleration...... Every feeling stimulates people's hearts.

After accelerating through the run-up, Yan Jingxing crossed the distance of more than five meters in one breath, as if gliding in the air, landed steadily on the opposite rooftop, rolled in place and then got up neatly, and continued to chase the black dog in front of him.

The split-headed dog jumps back and forth between the walls of the verandah, showing amazing bouncing ability; And Yan Jingxing was also not to be outdone, he jumped directly a little farther away, and his performance was as flexible as an ape when climbing high places.

Even if it seems that you can't jump over or climb up a place, you can easily cross it after making rich use of comprehensive skills; Therefore, even though there is a physiological gap between humans and monsters, the black dog runs faster and jumps higher than him, Yan Jingxing has never been thrown down.

As long as the split-headed dog refuses to give up on the host in this building and leaves the hospital, it has no chance of escaping under its nose.

The split-headed dog turned his head, smashed directly through the iron door, and returned to the building again;

Yan Jingxing was able to catch up with it in a detour, so he changed direction halfway and jumped directly from the rooftop to the side window;

When the whole person fell in mid-air, he quickly stretched out his hand, climbed the wall outside the window, stopped the falling trend with the strength of both hands, and then climbed in with his hands and feet to open the window.

This series of actions can be called thrilling, and it is carried out without any safety protection, even from the perspective of the audience, which is enough to take people's breath away; And Yan Jingxing himself was still expressionless.

When he rolled over and fell out of the window into the hallway, he saw a dark shadow running towards him in the distance, and when the split-headed dog noticed that he was in front of him, he could clearly see that the beast showed a humanized expression as if he was "stunned", as if asking "How did you get to me?" ”

It pushed forward on all fours, slid for a short distance, and stopped staring at him waryly.

Yan Jingxing, who had stood firm, did not give it any more time to rest, clenched a knife in each hand, and once again accelerated and sprinted.

"Three minutes and thirty-five seconds left in the limit time......"

Yan Jingxing set the limit of his ability at the position of "four minutes and thirty seconds", in other words, less than a minute had passed since the beginning of this battle.

If he had to persist longer, the change in his physical condition would be uncontrollable, and it was likely to cause him to faint on the spot.

"No problem."

He silently confirmed himself in his heart.

Yan Jingxing's running posture at this time was like a cheetah attacking its prey, leaning forward with his upper body, kicking his footsteps, and the whole person "swished" forward, almost like flying close to the ground.

And because of this strange posture, the split-headed dog obviously misjudged his attack angle: its head stretched forward, opened its fangs and mouth, and spit out a fishy wind, trying to bite Yan Jingxing directly, but it bit empty.

Yan Jingxing, who activated the instinct of the warrior, had an astonishing acumen for his grasp of the battle situation and insight into the enemy's weaknesses, and he had two heads and a huge beast, which looked very bluffing, but he saw at a glance the flaws brought about by this appearance:

Having two heads means having two pairs of eyes and two noses, and the advantage is naturally to expand the scope of observation, but the disadvantage is that there is still only one neck connected to the head-

In other words, the space for each head to move has shrunk. One of the most terrifying weapons of the beast is the bite of the teeth, which will inevitably cause the limitation of the bite angle and become an obstacle to the opponent's use of "weapons".

This is the reason why Yan Jingxing immediately changed his strategy and chose hand-to-hand combat after cutting a wound on the Split-headed Dog with a knife and realizing that the weakening of this attack method was insufficient.

When he quickly approached the Split-Headed Dog, the other party couldn't even fight back, because the direction he drilled into was very tricky, and it was exactly where the Split-Headed Dog couldn't bite with his mouth-

The two heads are too crowded on a stubby neck, creating a "dead end" when the two compete for space with each other.

Yan Jingxing did not hesitate to drill into this dead end, his curled body stretched violently, and the knife in his hand was raised violently.

"Stinging ——!"

Blood splattered, and even though the Split-Headed Dog had shaken its head as hard as he could, the sharp blade had carved a deep bloody mark into the misshapen second skull, and the wound extended to the neck.

"Whoa!"

The black dog let out a wail of pain and jumped backwards, dodging the other knife that Yan Jingxing held in his left hand.

If it weren't for the timely reaction of the split-headed dog, or the longer blade in Yan Jingxing's hand, it might have had its first head cut off by now, and the process was as easy as an ordinary person peeling off a circle of apples.

“…… Three minutes and twenty-five seconds. ”

Yan Jingxing calmed his breathing and calculated his physical strength.

It took ten seconds, but there was still plenty of time left.

He fell to his knees again.

Blood flowed freely from the wound on the black dog's neck, sprinkling snowflake-like blood on the ground.

Scold...... Even if it is parasitized, is it still red?

He moved his arm to relieve the muscle soreness caused by overexertion, thinking in his heart, "I guess it will be difficult to get through ......when the ability is over", and the whole person has rushed over again.

But at this moment, he seemed to notice movement from the other side of the corridor, and subconsciously paused.

And from the direction of the second floor, he heard the little girl shouting with all her might:

"Jing Xing! You...... You hear me? The parasitic sick are rushing towards you! ”

This voice was so loud that it could be heard up and down the whole building, and the girl's voice, which was originally as clear and beautiful as a mermaid, was a little hoarse at the moment, and I could hear how hard she shouted.

Yan Jingxing subconsciously frowned.

Even if he fights monsters head-on, or runs dangerous parkour in the building, his face does not change in his instinctive state; But just thinking about "whether Chunzao's throat will be hoarse, and it would be a pity not to hear her original singing", his face has changed--it shows that the matter about that girl can make his emotions fluctuate more intensely.

Yan Jingxing didn't think about what this meant, it wasn't time yet, he just shouted towards the corridor:

"I see! I'm on the third floor, don't come here yet! ”

He turned his head again to see the Split-Head Dog silently licking his wounds.

It seemed to sense something as well, one head continuing to stare at itself, while the other, wounded, looked deeper into the hallway.

Yan Jingxing heard the swaying footsteps of the patients, which were coming from the darkness, scattered and chaotic, and it made people panic when they heard it.

The hairless ones seem to want to do something too, and it will take some time for their side to completely kill the split-headed dogs......

At this critical moment, he withdrew to a safe distance and temporarily turned off the use of his abilities.

When the "Battle Instinct" is turned on, every breath of time is precious; And by repeatedly opening and closing, you can control the waste of unnecessary moments.

However, the time saved in this way will only add up to less than four and a half points.

It's like running for a while and resting for a while, and the duration of persistence is naturally longer than running all the time, but the physical exertion is still amazing.

Yan Jingxing leaned against the corner, staring at the group of patients who appeared around the corner;

Each of them was pale, but they invariably grinned at the corners of their mouths and showed a strange smile;

The Split-Headed Dog grinded its paws against the tiles, saliva uncontrollably trickling down the corners of its mouth and dripping onto the ground along with blood.

*

Across the floor below.

Xie Yuzhi stared at the dozen or so stairs spiraling upward, and she asked her companion beside her:

"How's it going upstairs?"

There was anxiety in her tone.

"There are a total of thirteen hairless hosts, and they are at a distance of more than half of the splinter-headed dogs, and there has been no conflict between the two sides for the time being......" Ji Chunzao closed his eyes, his moist lips opened slightly, revealing his teeth, and his body gently leaned on Miss Xie, "Jing Xing, he should be watching from the side......"

"Okay, I got it."

Xie Yuzhi nodded, holding the curly-haired girl with one hand, supporting her body to prevent her from falling.

But even if you know, you still can't do anything.

Under the lace-embroidered cuffs, her white fingers were pressing together one by one, and she quietly clenched her delicate fists.

More than a dozen hairless, and split-headed dogs that feed on hairless, but she has only one soldier available for awakening the king's ability tonight, and her power is too weak to interfere in the overall situation.

It doesn't matter in itself, the problem is that Yan Jingxing has been involved in this struggle, and he can't help his friends and stand on the same battlefield as him, which is what really makes the eldest lady feel depressed.

Xie Yuzhi was thinking, for safety reasons, should Jing Xing come back and the three of them leave together?

As for what will happen to this hospital and those patients, it is none of their business, and she doesn't care.

But now the crux of the matter lies in Yan Jingxing's idea.

She remembered the look on the boy's face when he let herself and Haruza leave before the battle with the Split-Headed Dog—

She believed that she was not mistaken, Yan Jingxing was smiling at that time.

It was a laugh excited about the battle that followed.

may be in the eyes of others, an underage student should not be brave and brave, but in Xie Yuzhi's eyes, Yan Jingxing's reaction is not strange at all; On the contrary, she admires it and thinks that everything is as it should be.

They are no longer ordinary people, and a man who is a "warrior", or a boy, should have such a will.

As for Chunzao, she may not have noticed this, or she may have been faintly aware of it, after all, this girl's intuition is still very sharp.

But......

Going around and around, it still comes back to that question.

Obviously he was the boy's companion, but he couldn't support him in the battle behind him, which hurt the eldest lady's self-esteem a little, and she felt as if she had become a spectator standing on the edge of the battlefield and had no way to intervene.

Of course, her ability is a growing type, and as long as there is a suitable partner, this situation will change in the future-

“…… Wrong. ”

Xie Yuzhi shook her head unconsciously.

"Ah, what's wrong?"

Ji Chunzao was leaning on her shoulder, noticing her sudden movements, and asked a little confusedly.

"I said, now, I obviously have something I can do but don't do it, but instead make excuses for myself, such cowardly thinking is not right."

“？”

There seemed to be a question mark on Ji Chunzao's head.

"After I manipulated the first hairless, I found that with my current consciousness strength, although the king's ability is not at the limit and can temporarily control other creatures, I am afraid that it can no longer tolerate controlling the second 'soldier' at the same time, so that after the more advanced hairsplitter appeared, I felt that the difficulty of controlling it was definitely not the same level as that of the hairless, so I didn't try it from the beginning...... But I changed my mind, and I must help Jing Xing. ”

After Xie Yuzhi said these words with a serious face, she grabbed Ji Chunzao's shoulder with her hand.

"Then Chunzao, I'm going to ask you next, and you'll help me."

“…… Huh? ”

Ji Chunzao was stunned for a moment, but saw that Miss Xie had closed her eyes and leaned towards her.

"Wow!"

She quickly opened her arms to hug each other, almost not catching them.
