Chapter 70 "Egg"

"Aha……"

Ji Chunzao sighed softly, hugged his knees with his hands, tried to curl up his body, as if hiding in a small cocoon.

She held the other slender arm in one hand and realized that she was shaking.

It's what she does subconsciously when she's upset: to be in a world of isolation, like a scared child wrapping herself in a blanket.

However, she is no longer alone now.After only a few months, she almost forgot those depressing moments.

But at this moment, Ji Chunzao couldn't help but return to his original weak self, feeling empty in his heart.

Because... she found that her eyes could not see.

The little girl tried to open her eyes wide, but could only see vague outlines of things, which made her feel flustered.

She didn't expect that the result of overusing her abilities would be like this.

Although Ji Chunzao has an innate talent for sensing and contacting alien creatures, she has never tried hard to hone it.The main reason is that she has scruples, not to mention regular exercise, even she can muster up the courage to decide to use it, it is thanks to Yan Jingxing.

Only in the short ten minutes just now, when she heard the fierce gunshots from the warehouse, when she realized that the situation of the three of them might really be so critical that she had to reverse it by herself, did Ji Chunzao approach her for the first time. This talent was used oppressively.

Even after becoming a priest, the power has increased, and the probability of contacting and summoning a specific alien creature that can overturn the situation in a short period of time is a very low probability——

But Ji Chunzao still managed to catch the "rope" that fell from the sky, and the target was still familiar.

The king of predators - a giant alien creature called "Overlord", Ji Chunzao has met twice; it seems to have been wandering in a certain area, she successfully contacted the other party, and got a response again.

However, in order to make it appear at a specific location, the radio waves sent by the season spring algae need to be more precise.

Just because she felt that it was only a little short, she worked even harder, but accidentally overused it, as if all the blood flowed back into the eyeballs in one breath, and she had a splitting headache for a while.

Ji Chunzao has never been very optimistic about her. She feels that she is not brave or strong at all, especially compared to the two precocious friends around her, she is very afraid of pain, so Faced with this situation, the little girl's first reaction was to burst into tears.

Having said that, she finally clenched her teeth and persisted, letting the hazy tears slide down her face.

At the moment of success, Ji Chunzao collapsed backwards, and then realized that there was a problem with his vision.

Could it be... am I just blind like this?

Fortunately, her worries did not come true: the blur that covered a large area of ​​vision quickly faded little by little.

At this moment, the eyeball embedded in the socket of the girl's right eye, which symbolizes "sacrifice", is as bright as a ruby. Of course, it is not bloodshot—it is emitting a strange and bright light.

It's just that the girl was curled up in a corner where no one was paying attention at that time, and the light flickering in her pupils gradually faded, and she didn't even notice the abnormality.

Ji Chunzao blinked his big moist eyes, his wet eyelashes fluttering, and suddenly saw a familiar figure not far away.

"Yuzhi..."

Xie Yuzhi hugged her arm and limped closer.

"How did you get yourself like this?"

When she saw her kneeling on the ground with tears in her eyes, she frowned and asked.

When Ji Chunzao saw her appearance, she was covered in dirty dust, she was so embarrassed, so she couldn't help answering:
"You...you still talk about me, don't you also..."

Xie Yuzhi sighed and sat down beside her.

"Yeah, I've already tried my best, maybe I'll pass out in a second."

As she spoke, her eyes began to close slowly.After realizing this, Miss Xie pinched her arm heavily without hesitation. The girl's fragile and delicate skin obviously couldn't bear the force, and immediately a mass of bruises appeared.

This rough action startled Ji Chunzao.

"You, are you okay...?"

"I'm fine... just to wake myself up."

Xie Yuzhi yawned deeply uncontrollably.

The girls stood side by side, sitting on the ground silently looking at the night, listening to the unsettling sounds hidden in the wind, Ji Chunzao couldn't bear it for too long, and asked the question she was most concerned about right now:
"Where is Jing Xing? How is Jing Xing?"

"I don't know." The eldest lady shook her head, "...I am very worried about him now, and there is a more serious problem, I can't help him. I can only sit here and watch..."

"Boom!"

A loud noise interrupted their conversation.

Above the warehouse, in the darkness deeper than the night, a bottomless cave is slowly blooming, and shadowy tentacles nearly [-] meters long hang down from it.

What followed was a terrifying attraction. The roof of the warehouse and the reinforced concrete building structure gradually collapsed, and the soil covering the ground disintegrated layer by layer...everything visible to the naked eye was destroyed, decomposed into residue, and slowly floated up into the sky .

"What, what should I do?"

Ji Chunzao panicked all of a sudden.

"If Jing Xing is still inside—"

"No, if it's Jing Xing, he must have a way to escape. You did the right thing. Create chaos to the greatest extent so that he has a chance to escape."

Xie Yuzhi comforted her.

"As soon as he comes out, we will leave here immediately."

……

However, until the warehouse and nearby roads and forests were all razed to the ground, and the tentacles were retracted into the hole again; until the rescue personnel and vehicles arrived, they could not wait for the boy's figure to appear...

*
After landing, Wu Zhifei turned his head and saw that the warehouse was gradually turning into ruins; at the same time, his ears moved slightly, and his hearing was dozens of times stronger than that of ordinary people, allowing the man to quickly capture the sound coming from the road several kilometers away. sound.

He heard sirens.

"Is it the police over here?"

Wu Zhifei smacked his lips.

He took out his mobile phone from the ragged pants stretched by his swollen muscles—compared to his thick palm, ordinary electronic devices were too small, so he picked it up with the tips of two fingernails.

"Hey, can you hear that? You bastard."

He asked the person on the other side of the phone unceremoniously.

"'Overlord' would appear in such a place, what is going on?...What did you say? Lucky?"

"Yeah, it can only be explained by 'luck'. Unless..." The person on the other side of the phone said halfway, and quickly changed the subject, "No, it should be by chance."

"Are you trying to say that the reason things got screwed up was because of my bad luck?"

"Hehe, isn't this a good thing? It's a rare experience to see them on Earth." The person on the opposite side replied with a smile, "Also, support is on the way. The place you are in is a small town that no one pays attention to. , in these three 10 minutes, the enemy you have to face is nothing more than the local police. Don't say you are afraid?"

After Wu Zhifei hung up the phone, he noticed the flashing car lights on the road not far away.

The beast-like face was gradually covered by manic and distorted emotions.

"Forget it, now, there is no need to hide it anymore. Just in time, I also want to find someone to vent my anger..."

……

"how is the situation?"

"Ten minutes ago, we received a report that someone passing by on the side of the road heard gunshots..."

"What a match."

The old policeman tapped the steering wheel with his fingers, his expression hard to hide his anxiety.

"It's a little tricky."

"We're here to take the lead, let's investigate the matter clearly first."

Five police cars honking their horns slowly stopped at the junction of the forest and the road.

"The intersection is blocked."

"Move things first."

In the process of removing the roadblock, everyone in the criminal police team couldn't help but become serious. They smelled the smell of blood, gunpowder smoke and burning from afar.

After returning to the car, the driver subconsciously moved his stiff neck and wrist, and the person who was not driving began to check the gun on his body.

People already have a hunch that what follows may be the most dangerous moment in their police career.

But even if he was mentally prepared, what happened afterwards was beyond everyone's expectations——

"boom!"

A huge monster fell from the sky and landed on the road. The driver of the police car in the front subconsciously stepped on the brakes.

"Crack-"

Accompanied by a sharp metal rubbing sound, the thick arm covered with thick hair penetrated the hood, and the "uninvited guest" blocked the vehicle sliding forward with one arm.

"This, this is...?!"

"What the hell?!"

At that time, it was a hideous monster like a bear standing upright.

……

The monster looked at the people sitting in the car and immediately showed unbelievable panic after seeing its own appearance. It grinned triumphantly, revealing its snow-white fangs.

"Want to fight? At least send some decent heavy weapons and armored vehicles!"

It roared, then waved its arms, lifted the whole car high, and threw it towards the guardrail next to it.

"boom!"

The police car smashed through the guardrail and slid down the dirt slope. The hood had been knocked flat, the shards of the window glass were scattered all over the ground, the tires were still spinning, and the people inside did not know whether they were alive or dead.

The following police cars stopped immediately, "Bang bang!" After rolling down the windows, more than a dozen pistols fired at the monster standing on the road at the same time.

This humanoid beast puffed out its chest, neither dodging nor dodging, and the bullets seemed to have completely lost its effect on it in this form.

Wu Zhifei's posture after transformation has lost the rationality of human beings, and is more animalistic.He stood in the middle of the road, howling towards the night sky, arrogant and domineering.

*
"Crack."

The safe was finally opened.

Trembling fingers slipped from the cabinet door, leaving a trail of blood.

Half of the boy's body was smashed, and it was impossible to survive no matter what.But the willpower that a person bursts out at the last moment of life is often extremely amazing, coupled with the remaining "superpower" blessing... he dragged the remaining half of his body and crawled to the side of the safe.

After fulfilling his last wish, he completely stopped breathing.

A huge attraction was born in the void above the warehouse, the safe began to float, and the items inside rolled into a pool of blood following gravity.

—It was a... "egg".

The overall shape is oval, twenty times the size of an ordinary ostrich egg. The case is light white, covered with mysterious patterns.

After coming into contact with the thick blood plasma, the eggshell began to emit a faint light, cracks crawled along the lines, and the smooth "shell" bloomed like gathered flower buds.

The vortex-like gravitational force above is getting bigger and bigger, and the surrounding environment—whether it is the building structure or the goods stacked in the warehouse, are all floating against gravity.

Including the blooming giant egg, the pool of blood flowing, the boy's half body... everything is gathering into a ball, being sucked into the sky silently.

　Sorry, it's been off for a few days.live now.I have sorted out the outline in the past few days, and I will continue to update it every day.
