Humanoid Machines [Unlimited] Section 457
How could she be so frightened that she had to wait for death because of a single miss!
Find another time to fight back!
…… And she promised Yuan Yuxue that she would protect the people in the shelter well. It's just a monster, is it going to die here like this? That's useless.
In a state of agitation, the skirt bit her lips, and the heavy fishy smell trickled into her lips and teeth, which made her more conscious.
It's just that at this time, it's too late. Her ankles and body had been wrapped around her jagged tongue, and all of a sudden, like a small insect preyed on by a frog, was pulled back into the monster's mouth.
The mouth closed, the heavy fishy smell and the corrosive liquid poured in, and the monster began to chew. Even if a human body is really insignificant compared to its size, it is so greedy for flesh and blood, and has not eaten people for a long time, of course, it wants to taste it carefully, and knead this immeasurable ant into pieces of crumbs—
At this moment, the monster's chewing action suddenly froze.
In just an instant, the soft part of the sheep-headed monster's lower throat suddenly burst into an extremely long blood mark, and countless viscous and rancid liquid spurted out. From the streak of blood, two scimitars stretched out in the face of extremely grim looks.
In the next second, half of the head of the huge sheep-headed monster was cut open and fell to the ground. Among the countless pieces of rancid flesh and blood, a rather petite-looking figure emerged.
Although the skirt has some disgusting fishy smell, it can't care so much at this time.
She followed up with a mantra to isolate those body fluids that were corrosive to the skin, and although the body was still rancid and smelly, it did not hurt other parts.
Before the corpse of the monster that had lost half of its head fell, the skirt had spoken. As before, the sound came to everyone's ears with great clarity, as if they were carrying some kind of megaphone.
"The monster is dead."
She took a deep breath, "I am the person in charge of 049, please cooperate with the arrangement." I will promise that I will fight until the last moment at the cost of my life. ”
"If there's a monster that wants to break into the sanctuary area, like this—" The voice of the skirt still didn't fluctuate, but people inexplicably heard a cold killing intent from that tone,
"I'll kill it."
The figure of the skirt is too small, unless it is the people standing on the nearest periphery, and it must be the kind with very good eyes, and others can't see it clearly, and there is a figure standing on the body of the terrible monster.
But as the words of the skirt fell, the monster body that had lost its head also fell tremblingly.
It fell backwards like a small mountain, with a loud bang, and collapsed.
“……!!”
People stared in amazement at the rolling "hill", and the monster that had been thought invincible had died at the hands of a human.
The monster was dead, and though they knew in their hearts that it wouldn't be much safer, and maybe more monsters would emerge - but at least it would settle down.
At that young voice, there was a little awe from the bottom of my heart, which would be very cooperative.

Although the catastrophe had already begun, fortunately, almost all the people had rushed to the shelter in time, and they were in the safe zone, and the prophetic scene of blood and pestle and human suffering did not happen.
However, inside the shelter, because of the dense crowd, several large and small conflicts have occurred. Although there were no fatalities, there were groups of wounded people, the smell of blood flowed out, everyone was uneasy and frightened, and the monsters gathered around the shelter were attracted and looked even more crazy.
It's still the beginning of the catastrophe, and the monsters aren't as many as predicted, and they're pouring in like a tide.
In most areas, there are only one or two monsters on average. But outside the shelters, where chaos and popular fear are at their peak, they can attract three or four monsters—the difference in numbers doesn't seem to be too exaggerated.
But this is based on the fact that there are not many monsters that appear, and in the later stage, I'm afraid these gaps will be easily discovered.
However, the better thing about the situation is that although there was chaos in the shelter for a while, it was soon managed by some people in charge to restore normal order and did not increase the number of casualties.
Most of these "leaders" are players - after all, players know more information and unlock more abilities at the start of the cataclysm.
In addition to the unlucky ones who were forced to come on as substitutes, there are many players at the top of the leaderboard, of course, who have some skills, and this small situation will not scare them to the core.
In addition, most of these people who awaken quickly are very spiritual, or have many adventures, and their luck is quite good.
After getting in touch with Yuan Yuxue and reaching an agreement, he also has a charter on what to do next.
I can't control people, and I can show my ability - just like a skirt. Simple and straightforward, but effective.
This kind of player who is confident in his strength is a solid player with the ability to kill monsters, which has a very calming effect.
Therefore, the shelters managed by these players are basically the fastest to stabilize.
But the number of players is not very large, and the players who awaken in advance are even more insufficient.
There are also shelters where the heads are ordinary people in this small world - of course, not very ordinary. are all more famous characters in City A. He has good eloquence and leadership skills, as well as speech skills. In addition, with the deployment of some military equipment to assist from the side, it was quite able to hold down the field, and the stability of the shelter was maintained in the future.
Just along the way, those shelters where the "NPCs" in the small world are in charge have also awakened one after another.
However, the players looked at the person in charge with a dry mouth and an impassioned speech of encouragement, and then at the terrible monsters besieging the city outside, and groaned slightly:
“…………”
They work so hard!!
Otherwise, I'd better continue to lie like this, and it's good to be a waste.
Not to mention going all out to get points, it's already great to survive in this situation. It's all too bad for the system, and they haven't recovered from the refreshed worldview at this time, and they don't dare to use it even if they unlock some abilities.
Don't ask for how high the points are, just want to be able to get a copy.
Salted fish players shed tears of sadness.
As for Yuan Yuxue, who almost single-handedly calculated the location of the shelters, numbered each area, and arranged for the person in charge to maintain order, the shelters that he personally managed should be the safest—in theory.
In reality, however, Yuan Yuxue is not directly responsible for protecting a certain shelter (or several) of shelter locations.
Now he is not in the shelter.
Chapter 513: Thousand People Copy 99
The previous semi-mandatory notices and measures caused citizens to gather in the shelter before the disaster struck.
However, there are always "fish that slip through the net" - or more maverick rebels, who don't believe in the "extreme natural disaster" statement, regardless of whether it is a notice from above or some kind of payment, people just don't want to go, just hide, and can't force it.
Or maybe you just had an accident and missed the line for a ride -- that's the kind of bad luck.
In the old-decorated orphanage, the little girl is huddled in the kitchen, shivering.
And through that not-so-spacious window, you can see the horrible sight outside—
A dim light fell, and a little afterglow of the setting sun outlined the body of the giant monster.
It was a "giant worm".
In fact, this description is not accurate, but it is indeed the closest to the form of "worm". The body is a long wriggling strip, and the body is a ring-shaped structure that is cut one by one. The skin has some kind of delicate pattern, sticky and slightly moist, and very fine bristles, very similar to enlarged earthworms.
Earthworms are a creature that people have seen a lot, that is, this huge size is frightening, and it is far from the effect of scaring people's souls. However, this "earthworm" is really extraordinary - not to mention its giant mouthparts with a head almost the size of the entire cross-section, its terrifying point is that hundreds of "hands" are born on its body.
A "hand" that looks like a human arm.
It does not move forward by the wriggling of its body muscles at all, but by the countless "hands" that grasp the ground, lifting the worm-like body, as if crawling by the hands, moving rapidly.
Not to mention, it's still very fast. Coupled with the advantage of its huge size, if it found a human, that person would not be able to escape.
But because of this, people were evacuated, and most of the buildings were empty, and there was no sign in them. Even the nearest shelter was some distance away—with no human breath to be found, the worm monster looked very agitated. It swam wildly in that area, and its body was so fast that only a vague afterimage could be seen passing by. It crawls around sniffing as if looking for a fish that has slipped through the net.
…… The little girl, who had slipped through the net, carefully covered her body against the wall, revealing only a small eye, and observed the monster's movements for a while.
Then he withdrew his eyes and sat down carefully. With her back pressed against the wall, she sat on her knees, arms around her legs, curled up in a tiny ball, silent.
She was scared.
Fortunately, the monster was still a long way away from her, and it seemed to crawl in a farther direction, and her current position was safe. If it weren't for that, she wouldn't even dare to show an eye to observe the terrible monster.
In this purgatory-like torment, she didn't make a sound.
Even when I first found that terrible monster, I was frightened, and I didn't snort.
The little girl is really young, only five or six years old, still thin, and if she is stunted, it is estimated that she is just learning to run.
Such a small child, even if it is usually obedient and well-behaved, generally does not have such a strong self-control ability - even if an adult encounters such a terrible monster, it is difficult not to lose control. But she was always quiet and silent, and except for a little fear and panic in her black pupils, everything else was like a pool of stagnant water.
The little girl is deaf and mute.
Born with hearing loss, he can barely hear anything and naturally cannot speak.
In fact, although she could not speak, her vocal tape was undamaged, and she was able to produce some simple syllables and sounds. But in an environment like an orphanage, where she usually receives limited care, no one wants to talk to her, and she thinks her "ah, ah" sound is funny and weird, so the little girl naturally stops talking.
Over the years, the mouth is always closed, forming a habit. Later, even if I opened my mouth to breathe twice, I seemed to be able to perceive a strange and uncomfortable pulling sensation in my throat.
Over time, she couldn't make any sound. Even if he is frightened, he will not lose his voice like an ordinary person, but his shoulders will tremble violently.
This situation seems like a "good thing" now—at least she won't be noticed by the monsters because she makes a sound.
Also because of her deafness and muteness, the little girl was accidentally left in the orphanage.
As an orphanage, the orphanage is a public welfare institution, and its usual expenses are very tight, and they employ few staff, and most of the time they have to rely on volunteers to maintain its operation.
The volunteers who took care of their children were new and unfamiliar with the composition of the staff, and they took care of a lot of children.
When the bus arrived at the entrance of the orphanage, because it was ahead of time, I was in a hurry, and I only hurriedly counted the number of people, and I didn't even notice whether the number was right, so I let the children get on the bus and drove to the nearest shelter together.
The little girl was so unlucky, she didn't know that she was going to the shelter, and she couldn't hear the volunteer teacher calling for people to gather and roll call. Just looked at the rare turn of the public library alone, and there was no companion beside her to remind her, and by the time she realized that the people in the courtyard seemed to have left, it was already dark.
She was the only one left.
She was forgotten in the orphanage.
In fact, there have been several times like this. Hearing loss is always a hassle in life.
Volunteer teachers don't have that much energy and will take care of every child. I also missed several outings because I couldn't hear before. Although the girl was silently envious, she would not be as disappointed and regretful as before, so she slowly put away the book and prepared to go to the small dining room to see if there was any leftovers—although it was very unlikely, she still wanted to eat something before going to bed.
And at this moment, passing by the diner's window, which was rarely wiped clean and transparent, she saw the huge, terrifying monster that appeared outside.
The neighborhood of the orphanage was quiet, and there was not even the sound of speeding cars on the adjacent road. If it were any other child, she would have already realized that something was wrong at this time, but for the little girl, her world has always been so quiet. What made her realize that something was wrong, but instead she looked over from this side, and several nearby houses were not lit, indicating that there was no one inside.
It seemed that in an instant, the whole world changed strangely.
All of them were gone, and they went somewhere she didn't know. And she was left in the world of monsters.
……
The little girl hid in the kitchen.
