[I'm almost done. I just need to wrap it up.]
"Aiyaya... Isn't this the lady who stabbed me in the eye just now? Why, aren't you running away? My attack range is so wide. I think you have to run to the side to avoid my stab. "
Lin Sanjiu watched in horror as the duoluozhong didn't attack. Instead, it pointed to an empty space not far away and laughed frivolously. Its long and narrow eyes squinted unpleasantly. "When it used to be a human, it must have been a disgusting man." Lin Sanjiu didn't know why, but this thought flashed across her mind.
She stared at the duoluozhong's movement. A white light flashed in her palm as she grabbed another card. Even though her body was trembling slightly due to the high tension, she forced herself not to move.
She couldn't just run to the empty space and ask someone to snipe her, right? What a joke! She wasn't stupid!
Since they were so close, she could only strike first! The cards in Lin Sanjiu's hand shot towards the duoluozhong again. However, this time, the duoluozhong was prepared. It took a step back and swung its mouthpart, knocking most of the cards away. Lin Sanjiu was the only one that she managed to avoid. She quickly summoned it back to her hand, but when she glanced at it, she couldn't help cursing inwardly.
The remaining card was the [Black Cloth], which was used to block the enemy's sight when used together with the blades. Lin Sanjiu had used up all the blades. The blades that flew out the first time were now scattered on the ground. If Lin Sanjiu didn't touch them with her hands, she wouldn't be able to retrieve them. Over the past month, although she had consciously stored many things into cards, the only things left in her hands now were some blunt weapons that could not be used …
Looking at the cards in Lin Sanjiu's hand, the duoluozhong's remaining pupil constricted. It walked to the edge of the roof and laughed.
Just when Lin Sanjiu thought it was going to say something, it suddenly swung its mouthpart and stabbed her. Lin Sanjiu instantly realized that she was too close to the mouthpart. If she didn't run away, she wouldn't be able to dodge it!
Following Marcie's terrified scream, Lin Sanjiu rolled away in despair. She felt a warm sensation on her shoulder. Marcie's mouthpart had cut her shoulder, causing a wound to appear.
Pressing on her injured shoulder, her eyes unconsciously swept across the opposite building, only to realize that she had rolled into an open space without any cover.
"No, it's too dangerous," Lin Sanjiu thought to herself. The [Black Cloth] flew into the air and spread out rapidly.
Almost at the same time, the long-awaited gunshot rang out. There were two consecutive gunshots. Fortunately, the black cloth blocked one of the shots and confused the sniper's focus. A spot of light landed on the ground beside them and created a hole. However, the other one pierced through Lin Sanjiu's knee in the blink of an eye. She screamed in pain and could no longer stand up. She could only lie on the ground, panting.
"F * ck you!" Seeing this, Luther couldn't help but jump up in anger. He swung the baton in his hand and swung it at the duoluozhong.
At the same time, Marcie pounced on Lin Sanjiu, intending to pull her up. Lin Sanjiu was lying on the ground defenseless. If another spot of light landed, Lin Sanjiu would be done for. However, just when Marcie grabbed her hand and was about to drag her to the back of the car, the sniper rifle fired again.
Lin Sanjiu watched as Marcie's chest burst into a mist of blood. Her face was splattered with tiny droplets of blood.
"Mar-Marcie?" Lin Sanjiu called out in a daze.
Marcie's pale face was reflected in Lin Sanjiu's pale brown eyes. Then, Marcie's corpse lost its strength and fell heavily on Lin Sanjiu. Lin Sanjiu's tears streamed down her face.
Even though she had seen it once, the pain of her companion's death was still unbearable.
"Marcie!" Luther's roar, which sounded like an injured little animal, came from not far away.
Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat. She mustered all her strength and shouted, "Don't come over! Hide!"
However, Luther turned a deaf ear to her. With a wave of his baton, he forced the duoluozhong away. Then, he turned around and rushed over. With a plop, he knelt beside the two of them.
Luther stared at the corpse and was speechless for a long time. He was already in the clearing, but the gunshots did not come as Lin Sanjiu had expected. Luther seemed to have forgotten about this. He caressed Marcie's hair with his trembling hand and sobbed. Then, he looked at Lin Sanjiu with his bloodshot eyes and pleaded, "Let's do it again. We still have one more chance. Marcie … Marcie is my family … "
The bright red number flashed in front of Lin Sanjiu's eyes. She suddenly felt a chill in her heart. "Do we really have one more chance? Up until now, everything was just speculation! If this isn't a countdown, but a precognitive dream … "
The tears in Luther's eyes shone with light and hope in the night. Lin Sanjiu couldn't voice out her worries when she saw Luther's gaze.
"Okay …" She averted her gaze and spat out a word with difficulty. However, she didn't hear any reply.
Lin Sanjiu looked up and saw that Luther's face was ashen and stiff, which she had never seen before.
Lin Sanjiu felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. She glared at Luther and called his name anxiously, "Luther, Luther! Say something! Say something! "
Luther's gaze became weak, and blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth. Then, his body fell limply onto Marcie's body. His fair neck was exposed, and there was a bloody mouthpiece stuck on it.
"Aiya, this kind of camaraderie of dying together really moves me. But, are you guys scared out of your wits? What do you mean by 'let's do it again'? Did you guys think that the dead could come back to life? " The slender eyes of the duoluozhong glinted with a satisfied and evil light, "Miss, don't cry. Every drop of water in your body is precious to me."
It was only then that Lin Sanjiu realized that she had been crying silently. Compared to seeing her friends die one by one in front of her eyes, that so-called opportunity was far too illusory!
Lin Sanjiu could no longer feel the wound on her leg. As the duoluozhong leisurely pulled out its mouthpiece and walked towards her, Lin Sanjiu tried her best to open her eyes and look at the building across the road. She didn't know which floor it was, but there were four to five metallic dots floating in front of the window. Most of the window was covered by the curtains, and she could only vaguely see a dark figure. Lin Sanjiu couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman.
"I want to count the floors before I die," Lin Sanjiu said to herself. "One, two, three … seven, eight …"
"You guys didn't expect there to be another one over there, right? What do you think? My woman's ability isn't bad, right? "the duoluozhong followed Lin Sanjiu's gaze and said proudly. There was a gloating smugness in his tone.
Lin Sanjiu couldn't hear anything. She could only hear the counting in her head. When she counted to twelve, she vaguely saw Luther's blood-stained mouthpiece in front of her through the layers of tears that flowed down her cheeks.
Her world became dark and blurry. Her consciousness drifted away like smoke.
…
"He's gone?" An unfamiliar man's voice sounded out of nowhere.
"Yeah, he couldn't help but use 'that' in the end," another male voice that Lin Sanjiu had never heard before said, "No wonder. I can tell that these three people have pretty good potential, but they just had to meet an opponent who was twice as strong as them. How unlucky. If we don't use it now, we might not be able to use it next time! "
"Damn it, that's my thing! We have to catch him as soon as possible … "the man said through gritted teeth.
"Hey, look, this one is a rare 'Growth-type'!"
"Tsk tsk, it's true …"
"… How about it … Do you want to help …"
The voices of the two unfamiliar men gradually became indistinct. Lin Sanjiu completely slipped into the darkness of her unconscious mind. Was that the kind of death she had tasted once before?
