Chapter 9: Mutations

The veteran took advantage of the victory to pursue and deceive himself.

Strange to say, the dark green area was muddy to the monster, but the veteran stepped into that area without the slightest hindrance.

The monster roared in anger as it watched the veteran approach him, struggling to get up from the ground.

The dark green energy seemed to be alive, and it quickly flowed from the ground onto the monster's body.

The monster straightened its upper body as hard as it could, pulling the countless dark green energy sticking to its body into silk threads like leather bands.

But it has never been able to break it down.

The binding force of dark green energy is beyond human imagination.

A purple-black arm struck the monster's bullet-riddled face.

The monster's head, which was difficult for a bullet to penetrate, was dented by the blast.

The monster's body, which had been struggling wildly before, suddenly stiffened at this time.

Pulled by the dark green energy, it reattached to the ground.

The veteran's left arm is like a piledriver.

A punch continued to bombard the monster's head, about five punches later.

The monster's head exploded, leaving only a headless corpse, lying limply in the energy mud.

The battle is over.

"Whew, whew, whew!" The veteran, who was still alive before, fell directly to the ground, and his chest breathing was as rapid as a bellows.

In this battle, his physical strength was completely overdrawn.

The most important thing is the danger in battle, and any slight mistake can cause one's own death.

Mental and physical tension is high.

After a short rest, the veteran recalled the dark green energy that suddenly appeared in the battle.

If it weren't for that energy that held back the monster's charge.

I'm afraid I'll be torn apart by it on the spot.

"What was that?" the veteran looked at the one-foot area, finally having time to think about the source of that energy.

On the other side, the short-haired woman and the yellow-haired young man who had witnessed the entire battle looked at Jiang Yan on the edge of the battlefield in unison.

The latter's body fell to its knees as if it had lost its strength.

Soaked in sweat.

Looking at his appearance, the physical strength consumed is not at all below that of a veteran.

The veteran was just focused on the battle, and he didn't see the brilliance that erupted in Jiang Yan's eyes.

But the woman and the yellow-haired young man saw it.

The green glow that erupted from his eyes was exactly the same as the energy that contained the monster.

Speculating in this way, the answer is already on the horizon.

"How did he do it?" the woman's eyes were filled with doubt, and she fell into deep thought.

"Gollum!" The yellow-haired young man, who had witnessed the entire battle, swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and his eyes were filled with fear when he looked at Jiang Yan or the veteran.

Because the strangeness shown by these two people is beyond the scope of ordinary people.

He was afraid that these two guys would turn into monsters too.

Jiang Yan didn't have the heart to think about other people's opinions now, so he lay on the ground and gasped for breath.

Bean-sized sweat slid down his supporting arms, soaking the ground.

He's out of strength.

My whole body was sore, and I didn't want to move a finger.

It was he who caused that energy.

Extremely nervous, a power suddenly erupted in his head that he couldn't explain, turning the monster's feet into a swamp of energy.

That kind of outburst was passive, and it was not guided by Jiang Yan.

He himself was thrilled very.

That energy was powerful, powerful enough to trap the monster inside.

But if he wants to use it again, he probably can't start.

Moreover, after that energy exploded, all the strength in Jiang Yan's body was drained.

Even if he knew how to use it again, he didn't dare to use it, because he estimated that he would die.

"What's wrong with this world!" gasped in his mouth, this was Jiang Yan's second sigh.

Before, it was because of monsters, but now it's because of yourself.

Before he knew it, he seemed to have become a monster, but fortunately, he didn't lose his mind.

......

In the middle of the road, the last survivors of the last bus are clustered.

It's not that they don't want to go, it's that Jiang Yan and the veteran are seriously overdrawn in physical strength, and they can't take a step, so they have to rest to recover their strength.

God knows how far this fog will reach, and it can be in crisis at any time.

They have to be at their best to face it.

The veteran and Jiang Yan lay together, and from the woman's mouth, he knew that the energy mud that had previously assisted him in killing monsters was from Jiang Yan's handiwork.

The young man opposite, the more the veteran looked at it, the more he had an appetite, and he really counted it, Jiang Yan saved his life.

"My name is Huang Hai!" stretched out his purple-black left arm, and the veteran smiled in a friendly manner.

Looking at the veteran's somewhat creepy arm, Jiang Yan didn't want to shake hands with him, but he felt a little too impolite, so he only touched his palm with his scalp and immediately let go, and sneered:

"Jiang Yan, Brother Hai just call me Xiao Yan. ”

"Haha, I can indeed be your brother in terms of age, then I'll scream at you and I'm bored. Huang Hai smiled heartily.

I don't know if it's his optimistic character, Jiang Yan feels that even in this bad environment shrouded in black fog, Huang Hai has always maintained a happy appearance.

"It's a big heart. Jiang Yan sighed in his heart.

Then he looked at the woman and the yellow-haired young man standing not far ahead.

Jiang Yan and Huang Hai rested exhaustedly, and the two of them took on the work of vigilance.

Don't say that the word 'alert' is a bit exaggerated, and not to mention whether there are other unknown dangers in the black fog, the four people on the bus alone are very likely to wake up and become monsters.

At this time, vigilance is necessary.

"What's the name of the two of you?" As the last survivor, Jiang Yan felt that the four of them should inform each other of their names.

"Brother Hate, Brother Hai, my name is Lu Zheng. The yellow-haired young man barely smiled, looking at Jiang Yan and Huang Hai's eyes with timidity.

"Armpins. The woman replied without looking back.

"Pseudonym?" Jiang Yan twitched his cheeks and asked helplessly.

Who would give their daughter such a name, it's a fake name when you hear it, and it's too fake.

"Yes, kana. The woman tilted her head lightly and glanced at Jiang Yan, without the slightest embarrassment of being dismantled because of the lie.

This made Jiang Yan feel blushing, and he had nothing to do with this woman.

"Have you rested enough, enough is enough to go, the sooner you get out of here, the better. The armpin completely ignored Jiang Yan's performance, glanced in the direction of the bus, and urged: "I don't want to face four monsters again." ”

The words of the sleeve pin make the atmosphere tense.

According to the law of the appearance of monsters, the four people who passed out are estimated to be about to wake up.

"Hmm!" Jiang Yan knew the truth well, nodded immediately, took a deep breath, and struggled to stand up from the ground.

He hasn't fully recovered his strength yet, but he should be able to get on the road.

The veteran Huang Hai also slowly stood up from his lying position, he and the armpin were a little disagreeable, but what the latter said was indeed reasonable, and there was no need to argue in this situation at the moment.

The four of them are back on their way, but only when they pass by the corpse of the monster that was killed by the combined efforts of the others.

Jiang Yan's footsteps suddenly stopped for a moment.

Looking along Jiang Yan's field of vision, the energy swamp on the ground had completely disappeared, leaving only the headless corpse of the monster.

I don't know what the reason is, all the flesh and blood disappeared after the monster died.

Bones deeper than the color of ink are exposed.

Jiang Yan guessed that there were two possibilities.

One: After the monster dies, the black silk energy that burrows into its body automatically volatilizes, and even the flesh and blood are evaporated.

Two: That swamp energy is not only strongly adherent, but should also be corrosive.

Thinking about it, Jiang Yan's eyes suddenly froze, and his gaze locked on the arm on the right side of the monster's corpse.

There was a whole piece of purple bone that was slightly different in color from the other bones.

Purple and black are mixed together, and you really can't see it if you don't look closely.

When Jiang Yan stopped, the other three didn't notice, so he and the team broke away a short distance.

"This bone. Jiang Yan glanced at the three people not far in front of him, hesitated slightly, stepped past the monster corpse, squatted down, and carefully studied this strange hand bone.

It was the bone of the monster's right hand that had been exposed after it had rotted.

Jiang Yan's eyes could see things that the other three couldn't.

Looking closely at the bone, he could clearly sense something lurking within the bone.

It was a slightly different substance from the energy that swirled in the black mist.

Driven by curiosity, Jiang Yan reached out and gently touched the hand bone.

With such a slight touch, the bones of the hand were completely detached from the arm.

"This hand bone should be related to the material wandering in the black mist, if it can be brought out to the relevant agencies, maybe the secret of the black fog can be discovered. Jiang Yan narrowed his eyes and picked up the hand bones.

He wasn't worried about the substances in his hand bones hurting him.

The monster itself was mutated because of the existence of the black mist, and Jiang Yan had been soaked in the black mist for several hours.

Just as he was about to have an accident, he died early.

Picking up the hand bones, Jiang Yan quickly kept up with the pace of the team.

The hand bones were too big to hide from everyone's eyes, and Huang Hai's puzzled voice came from the team: "Xiao Yan, why are you picking up a bone?"

"Take it back and study it!" Jiang Yan truthfully said his thoughts, and was greeted by the strange stares of the three of them.

The black fog is very eerie.

Jiang Yan's four survivors walked inside, walking on thin ice.

Fortunately, although it was thrilling, it didn't happen to anything too terrible.

An hour later.

The figures of Jiang Yan and the four walked out from the edge of the black mist that was so thick that it could not be dissolved.

In front of them is a modern metropolis with countless tall buildings.

Looking at the familiar city in front of him, the yellow-haired young man Lu Zheng was so excited that he burst into tears, and his legs almost knelt on the ground: "Finally came out!"

"Ahh

As soon as the voice fell, Lu Zheng got up directly, and was about to take steps to return to the embrace of civilization.

An arm reached out from behind him and pressed it on his shoulder the moment he got up.

"Wait a minute!" Jiang Yan said in a low voice, stopping Lu Zheng's reckless move.

"What's wrong?" Lu Zheng turned around in confusion and looked at Jiang Yan.

The latter shook his head and did not speak, looking at the metropolis in front of him with a solemn face, his face so solemn that he was about to drip water.

Even the armpins standing on both sides of Jiang Yan and Huang Hai's faces were not good-looking.

"It's so quiet!" Jiang Yan said softly, looking at the dead city in front of him.

A city like Huajiang City that never sleeps, even at this point in time, should be busy with traffic and bright lights.

And the city that Jiang Yan saw now not only did not have the slightest sound, but not even a single light was lit.

Darkness enveloped the city, like a coarse mouth of the abyss, waiting for them to enter.

Lu Ru woke up from a dream, and a huge fear spread from his heart: "Could it be that this city is also ......?"

Before he could finish his terrible guess, the armpin suddenly spoke: "Look at the heavens!"

Jiang Yan raised his eyelids and looked at the night sky.

But above the vast starry sky, a purple full moon hung high, mysterious and demonic.

"Why is this happening!" Jiang Yan's eyes were glazed, and his whole body was cold.

The moon is no longer the moon it used to be, and what terrible thing has happened to dye this round of silver moon purple.
