I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

The girl's slender fist seemed to contain power that was completely inconsistent with its appearance. With just one blow, it shattered the carapace of the monster's head and penetrated hard into the monster's brain.

She kept yelling, questioning, and hitting like crazy——

"What did we do wrong! Why! Why do you treat us like this!! Why!!"

The fists kept swinging, and with a terrifying loud noise, the entire upper body of the centipede monster in front of him was smashed into a pulp that could no longer be distinguished.

Purple blood splashed onto Lina's face, body, and everywhere on her body, bathing her in blood.

The killed monster completely lost its movement, leaving only half of its body lying limply on the ground.

Lina slowly knelt down and looked at her intact fists. The thick purple liquid on them was gradually washed away by the rain and dripped down her arms.

I can't go back.

"Why....."

Lina used her last strength to ask, but she didn't know who could answer this question.

Maybe there's just the rolling thunder overhead, rumble... rumble...

"Because, just because, we are cursed children?"

Lina slowly raised her head against the falling rain.

"Just because I saw this sky..."

As long as it exists——

"Is it just a mistake?"

Rumble....

The rain gradually became thicker, like pouring water, and the sky flashed with lightning and thunder, briefly illuminating the petite figure kneeling in the ruins for a moment.

But still no one could answer her questions.

Only after hearing the sound, more gastrea animals surrounded the figure.

Chapter 5 Thunder

brush--!

The smelly purple blood splashed out from the fan, and Cheng Rang swung his knife to shake off the blood.

Looking around, there are scattered corpses of gastrea animals. They have been washed away by the rain and turned into a lavender river, with ripples caused by the rain.

[Cold-Blooded Slaughterer - Mission Progress: Kill 57/800 Stage 1 Gastrea Creatures, 23/400 Stage 2 Gastrea Creatures, 0/75 Stage 3, and 0/10 Stage 4]

Being expelled by the child he met for the first time with a hostile look on his face, and not even giving himself much chance to talk, Cheng Rang's mood at this time could not be considered clear.

But in all this, we can't resent the children, we can only vent our emotions on these monsters.

Gastrea...

Cheng Rang glanced at the corpses on the ground. The physical abilities of these monsters were indeed very deadly to ordinary people. After actual testing, the lead bullets of ordinary firearms were basically useless.

It cannot be affected.

Even in the weakest stage one, it requires continuous heavy machine gun fire to suppress one, and it will start to recover immediately after stopping the suppression.

The regeneration ability and power speed of the second stage are even better. Basically, ordinary individual weapons on the human side can no longer deal with it.

As for the so-called forged weapons, Nyarlathotep's ceremonial dress cannot be conceptually constructed because Cheng Rang has never seen it.

Concepts that are not understood - cannot be constructed.

And Cheng Rang can kill gasterozoans even without a weapon, by simply and crudely dismembering them.

The brain, nerves, heart, all the weak points were cut off in an instant. It seemed that such an attack could easily kill the gastrula below stage two.

Although the sword energy can be released for medium and long-range combat, the current purpose is to vent dissatisfaction, so this method of interpreting the aesthetics of violence to the extreme is more effective and refreshing, and the visual appreciation is also higher...

Boom!

The rolling thunderclouds behind the sky made a loud noise. Standing in the heavy rain, Cheng Rang ignored his soaked body and continued to look for traces of gastrea.

"On the first day today, let's set a small goal - just kill a hundred of them...and there are still twenty left."

The area where Cheng Rang is located is near the periphery of the giant stone monument, and beyond that is a dense jungle. Gastrea animals can be seen almost everywhere here, but the distribution is not so concentrated.

It should be due to the influence of the magnetic field of the giant stone tablet.

He turned around quickly, but it seemed that all the nearby gastrea animals had been killed by him.

Want to go deeper into the jungle?

But this seems to be meaningless. Although there are more monsters as you go deeper, there is no experience and no drops available. Just stop at the killing point purely to vent your emotions. If you don't encounter stage four, no matter how many cannon fodder kills you kill, Unable to complete the task. If the number of low-stage gastrea creatures killed exceeds the limit, who knows if there will be a bug in this system.

Let's go back and take a look. After all, there are some primitive gut creatures that slipped in over the giant stone monument. They can also be considered as killing harm to the people. Otherwise, it would be too boring to kill so many monsters without giving any psychological comfort. .

In Cheng Rang's eyes, boredom is the enemy.

Pointing his toes to the ground, he quickly returned to the boundary of the giant stone monument in a vertical leap. He seemed to gradually hear the sound of someone shouting.

The sound of rain was mixed with thunder, and the sound was weak and erratic. However, if he could find human traces again, Cheng Rang still had a little hope, and with curiosity, he looked in the direction of the sound.

Cheng Rang was walking very fast, and within a few leaps he could see the figure surrounded by several centipede-shaped gastrea animals.

Moreover, it seems that the petite figure looks familiar.

"Lina? Why is she here?"

Cheng Rang was very surprised. He had been out for less than half an hour. You should know that this place was already several kilometers away from the sewer entrance!

What was she doing running out now?

In addition, Cheng Rang was also surprised by Lina's fighting ability——

She was obviously a little girl who looked less than ten years old, but her thin body, which was obviously malnourished, was able to erupt with huge power that easily shattered the carapace of a stage 1 gastrea.

The strong wind caused by Lina's fists can even cut off the rain curtain for a short time.

"Aha!!"

boom!

Another centipede-shaped gasterocarp rushed towards her and half of its body was broken into pieces. The fallen body twisted a few times on the ground and then slumped down. It looked completely dead.

"This kid...seems to be ridiculously strong..."

In just a few seconds, two centipede monsters were killed by Lina with her bare hands. This was almost impossible in Cheng Rang's eyes.

But it’s true that I saw it with my own eyes.

Is this the power that [Cursed Son] has? !

If a child has such an ability, how could humans be forced to this point by gasterozoans?

——Cheng Rang suddenly felt that the world was absurd, even absurd, and incomprehensible.

Just when Cheng Rang was stunned by Lina's superb combat ability, her physical strength seemed to be exhausted in the next second, and the fists that had been swinging with great force suddenly lost their strength.

That blow did not break the centipede's carapace.

...

Has it reached its limit?

Lina's dizzy mind could no longer even see the monster in front of her clearly in the rain. The moment she lost her power——

That's it for now... the thought came to mind.

Killed four gastrea animals...Although not all of them were killed, it can somewhat reduce the pressure on everyone in the outer area...

Whether it's a few missing monsters or two missing mouths to eat.

Lina stared blankly at the monster in front of her that was waving its jointed limbs and pressing towards her, and slowly closed her eyes.

"In the next life...it would be fine if Lina was not born in this world..."

Lina's murmur coincided with the girl named Elen whom she met not long ago.

"I...if only I hadn't been born."

Cheng Rang suddenly opened his eyes wide.

At this moment, he suddenly understood something...

Click... click!

The blade reflects the cold light,

It shines brightly in the rain.

The sudden dazzling flash of light made Lina, who had closed her eyes waiting for death, squint her eyes again.

what is that?

In her vision blurred by rain and tears, Lina could no longer see the light clearly.

I just feel that it is... dazzling, even warm.

The sharp whistle of the air being cut open by super speed reached in front of you instantly from far to near. In the perception, even the raindrops that were stagnant in the air due to the speed were evaporated in the air by the high temperature caused by friction.

At that moment, the lightning in the sky illuminated the world, but the pure white light seemed to be several times brighter than the lightning in the sky——

The light split at that moment.

Then the arthropods of the gasterozoa centipede stopped waving, or in other words, all the monsters stopped moving. They seemed to be petrified when the split light passed through their bodies.

Until Lina felt herself being held tightly by a solid embrace, the breath of hope that she had desperately chased before surrounded herself again——

[Ultimate skill: Flash]

"....Eighth Company...."

The frozen monsters around them turned into pieces of flesh, falling and scattering.

Cheng Rang's clothes were tightly clenched by the girl in his arms.

"Help...Snow...save Snow...save her...please!"

"..."

Cheng Rang looked at the girl who had fainted in his arms with a complicated expression, but still held on to him as if instinctively and refused to let go.

But she still repeated those words in her mouth as if she was dreaming——

"Save her..."

"give it to me."

This promise was supposed to make her feel at ease, but it made Lina's hand tighten even more every second.

Cheng Rang's heart seemed to be suddenly pricked by this - this was a sign of distrust.

I feel uneasy, unable to feel at ease, and cannot trust strangers in any way, but there is no other way to choose, so I can only act like clutching at straws to save my life.

She is barely ten years old!

What exactly has he gone through to make a child of this age react like this? !

Shouldn't they be humanity's last hope?

Why - do the humans here give up even such a small hope?

But now is not the time to ponder these questions...

Without saying a word, Cheng Rang put away the long knife at his waist, held Lina tightly in his arms with both hands, and then quickly rushed in the direction he left before.

Chapter 6 The absurd world

Cheng Rang carried Lina all the way past the dilapidated ruins and headed towards the sewer wellhead.
