"Uncle" and "Aunt" are like two machines on an assembly line, their movements are uniform, and they invariably cast their eyes to the room on the second floor, revealing a mad smile.

At that moment, a piercing chill rose up Ji Chunzao's back, and at the same time she figured out something:

This family really can't stay any longer!

I hadn't done it to myself before, and I hadn't hurt her for some cat-and-mouse reason, but it was only a matter of time. If you don't dare to leave the room and run away because you're afraid, you're killing yourself as a camel with your head in the sand.

- Time is running out, she can't count on her friends to save her!

Thinking of this, Ji Chunzao no longer hesitated, got up, and ran down the stairs.

At this time, the girl couldn't help but rejoice that she had been on an adventure for all this time.

If she is still the timid and ordinary she used to be, she will only be frightened to move when she sees terrifying things, let alone run away in time, and she can't even figure out what happened, she will only be killed in a daze.

Running away and jumping, Ji Chunzao did not look back halfway. Even if she doesn't use the naked eye to observe, her sacrificial ability can be used as a "eye", and she can "see" the movements of the two people in the kitchen behind her.

Sure enough, when Ji Chunzao ran to the door and pulled down the handle and pushed the door out, the "uncle" and "aunt" who were sitting at the table eating in the kitchen immediately stood up with an inhumane movement.

"Bang!"

Before she even had time to change her shoes, the curly-haired girl in slippers rushed out of the door, and at the same time shook it hard, closed the door, and continued to rush out along the road without looking back.

Just a dozen steps out, there was a muffled sound behind Ji Chunzao, and the door was slammed open by a terrifying force, followed by a loud, inhuman-like roar from someone:

"Season-Spring-Algae!"

Probably because he was running, the sound was rapidly distorted and distorted in Ji Chunzao's ears, as if it came out along a long, twisted spiral horn channel;

And when she glanced behind her from the corner of her eye, she was even more shocked: in her panicked trompe l'oeil, Ji Chunzao found the two people behind her...... It's really twisting and deforming!

The shadow cast by the body flowed on the ground, the body as tall as a giant, and its limbs writhed like a snake that had eaten a spring, and then quickly shrank back again.

That...... Is that still human? Or did you see it wrong?

Ji Chunzao didn't look back, nor did she have the idea of careful observation, and she didn't even have time to think of the sad thought of "her relatives suddenly inherited a monster one day" - she just opened her legs, picked up her pace, and tried to make herself run faster.

Running, running, even if you run out of breath, the cold air flows from your mouth into your lungs, and it hurts......

Ji Chunzao didn't dare to stop.

If she can perform at this level anytime and anywhere, she will definitely not fail the 400-meter test in school physical education class.

But in the face of monsters, how far can an ordinary person go?

In contrast to the warriors, who have the power to strengthen themselves, the king has the power to manipulate monsters, and the priests have the right to interpret knowledge and the perception of mysterious connections with some alien creatures.

She can even communicate with the "Predator King" who operates on the other side of the deep universe, so as long as time permits, Ji Chunzao can play a role beyond the ordinary dressed person on the battlefield.

But here's the problem......

Ji Chunzao herself remembers very well that it took most of the day for her to summon the predator king for the first time, and she didn't even have time to eat or sleep; The second time was tens of minutes, and even if the big octopus was called over, it would definitely not be too late to save itself, and in the process, you had to concentrate and concentrate - so there was no need to try at all.

Therefore, when she is faced with a crisis, the performance of resistance and escape that she can make is no different from that of a real ordinary junior high school girl.

Then, in despair, she realized that she had no hope of escaping.

Then, after more than ten seconds, Ji Chunzao's uncle caught up with his niece from behind her.

"Painful ......!"

The uncle opened his palm and grabbed at the girl, as if trying to grab her hair. Ji Chunzao's ability allowed her to see his movements clearly without looking back, so she subconsciously pounced forward, trying to dodge the attack.

She did dodge, but her posture during the sprint suddenly lost her balance and she fell forward.

Ji Chunzao supported his body with his hands to avoid breaking the phase, but the result was that the palm of his palm was ground out of blood by a small stone, and his knee was also worn out.

It hurts...... The girl's eyebrows furrowed, and she lay on the ground and couldn't stand up for a while.

The pain interrupted her escape journey, and the thinking did not stop, but it only made Ji Chunzao feel more desperate.

Is there no other way?

Suddenly, the vision in front of Ji Chunzao was blocked by shadows.

A pair of thick boots appeared in front of her, belonging to a very tall man.

"Miss, are you okay?"

There was a roughness in the man's voice, as if the vocal cords had rubbed against the sand, but it had an indescribable solemnity and heaviness.

Ji Chunzao raised his head and saw the other party's face.

The man wore a black coat that looked like a raincoat, covering his entire body; His hair grew densely like seaweed, more messy than herself, only the length of the hair was short; The man looked to be fifty years old, with thick eyebrows, deep-set eye sockets, drooping eyebrows, and a face covered in scars and scars.

He had a sad face, and if he insisted on speaking, he could even be called ugly—almost like Quasimodo, Hugo's Quasimodo, but when he looked at the others without saying a word, the solemnity and majesty in it were remarkable, like the kind of saint who weeps for the suffering of the world.

"Don't ...... Don't stay here, there's a monster ...... behind."

Ji Chunzao said with difficulty that she didn't know this person, and only hoped that he could escape quickly.

"yes, I know."

The man replied. But he didn't mean to run away, but leaned over to help her up.

Ji Chunzao noticed sharply that the other party was wearing a pair of black plastic gloves, like a worker working in a seafood processing factory.

After helping Ji Chunzao up, the man walked forward and passed by her.

The girl passed by him, staring at the other's back in surprise.

But she didn't say anything to stop the man's behavior, because she was already keenly aware of the other's unusualness.

Logically, the man's presence here is a strange thing in itself, and it can only be assumed that he has something to do with the changes that happened to her "uncle" and "aunt" in her house, or more directly, he is here to solve or witness.

And think about it from a more intuitive point of view......

Ji Chunzao felt it.

She felt a "strange feeling" of exaltation from the other party, as if she was out of step with the world; Moreover, this alien texture was different from the alien creatures she had seen before.

…… What's going on?

Ji Chunzao pressed his chest, trying to calm his breathing.

She decided not to run away.

If no one stopped her aunt and uncle, she wouldn't be able to escape, so she decided to observe for a while.

In fact, by this time the two men had pounced on them like beasts—it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were "beasts", each with their mouths wide open, drooling and their pupils red, and their eyes full of terrible fanaticism.

"My beloved brothers and sisters, please stop here."

The man's movements were so unexpected, he didn't hurt his uncle and aunt, he didn't make any defensive moves, he just ...... He opened his arms and hugged them as if he were his own relatives and friends.

His movements are subtle and powerful, but even so, he is still inevitably hurt by the manic couple.

Their hands and nails scratched deep blood marks on the man's face; They opened their mouths and tried to bite the man's throat, only to be stopped by the heavy raincoat - the couple shook desperately with their heads on the left and right, trying to tear off the fabric of the raincoat with a tooth-aching "creaking" sound.

But even so, the man remained silent, quietly embracing them with his arms powerful, as motionless as a mountain.

This process lasted for dozens of seconds, and then, the movements of the uncle and aunt changed from violent to quiet, and the crimson eyes gradually lost their original ferocity, but became dazed, as if they had heard a baby in swaddling Lullaby, and gradually closed their eyes.

"He, they ......"

Seeing this scene happen, Ji Chunzao couldn't help but be surprised.

"Your loved ones are fine, they're just too tired to pass out for the time being."

To tall men, Ji Chunzao's uncle and aunt are like big-sized toys. He gently moved the couple aside.

"I'll wake up in a few hours."

"That's ......"

Ji Chunzao was not completely relieved, but when he heard the other party say this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"What the hell is going on?"

She looked up and stared into the other's eyes.

This person...... Undoubtedly in the know. His actions, the way he speaks, are proof of that.

"They're influenced by this town."

The man's tone remained calm and unmoved, and there was nothing to hide.

Greeting Ji Chunzao's gaze, the man raised his right hand, placed it on the heart of his left chest, and bowed slightly to her, as if to show respect to the superior.

"The closer they are to the center of the storm, the more severe the impact becomes, and their mental structure is distorted and heterogeneous."

It's good that he doesn't explain, and the little girl's head is even more dizzy with this explanation.

Ji Chunzao held his forehead and couldn't help but raise his hand.

"Wait! I, I don't understand what that means...... Was it done by alien creatures? ”

"Matlyoshka...... With their strength it is not enough to do such a thing. But the 'thing' that drew them here does. ”

"What's that?"

"Divine Pillar."

"God...... Post? ”

Ji Chunzao felt that he must have heard this word somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"It's in your body now, miss."

The man's voice was low and grim.

"I'm here for this, and there will be a lot of people gathered in this town for it, and the time to wake up has come."
