The roar of the pale-skinned humanoid monster was very low, as if it was rolling and vibrating in its throat, but it was extremely penetrating, causing everyone's eardrums to ring. Suddenly, the crowd quieted down, and no one dared to run around.
At this time, everyone felt like they were being stared at by its eyes. Its ugly and horrifying appearance, coupled with its huge and ferocious body, made everyone's scalp tingle.
The students who came out of the building did not dare to retreat immediately, nor did they dare to run immediately. It seemed that if they moved, the monster would be the first to pounce on them.
No one wanted to be the first to be attacked by the monster, especially the female students. When they thought that this monster might be the sex fiend that appeared recently, they were scared out of their wits.
The pale-skinned monster had already caught a girl in its hands, and many people began to pray that it would leave as soon as it succeeded. After all, they were not the ones being caught at the moment. After this incident, at most, they would organize a lighted memorial for the unfortunate girl, say a few words of wishing her rest in peace, and shed a few tears to express their 'sorrow'.
But would she really rest in peace just like that? No one cared, and no one cared. This was just a prop for them to show their 'kindness'.
Only a few people who had a close relationship with the girl were really worried about her safety at this time, and they were very nervous.
However, the more people wanted it to leave, the more it refused to leave. Instead, its whole body was tense, as if it was going to attack again.
The crowd panicked again, and the people at the front carefully tried to hide behind it. At least someone had to stand in front of them, so that they would not be in the most danger.
The people at the back also shrank back instinctively, but they did not move too much, for fear that they would accidentally anger the monster and cause it to attack ahead of time.
A faint stench wafted out of the crowd's clothes. The pale-skinned monster's nose, which only had two pores, twitched. Its sense of smell seemed to be very sensitive, and the wafting stench completely stimulated it.
It suddenly roared, opened its dark, sticky mouth, and revealed its sharp teeth.
This pale-skinned monster was not really fierce at first, and the 'teenager' could feel its fear.
Its IQ seemed to be very low, so it used its ferocity to cover up the fear in its heart.
However, the stench from the crowd completely stimulated its ferocity, and the trace of "rational" fear was washed away, turning it into a real beast.
It roared and was about to pounce on the crowd.
The 'young man' did not find it strange that the monster did not pounce on him. Many people thought that a wild beast would attack a stronger opponent first, but this was actually a wrong understanding of human nature.
On the prairie, he had dealt with many wild beasts and had a deep understanding of their habits. When faced with their prey and targets, they would always start with the weakest.
Unless the strongest opponent took the initiative to attack them, otherwise, even the beast known as the king of the grassland would not take the initiative to provoke them.
In the eyes of this pale monster that had lost its' rationality ', everyone here had become the same kind of prey. The only difference was whether they were strong or weak.
The crowd, which was already highly nervous, immediately scattered, completely exposing the "young man" who was already at the front.
Just like the monster's inexplicable fear, he also felt that this monster was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
Therefore, he took a step forward, wanting to get a clearer look.
He was not afraid of this pale monster, just like how it was sensitive to smell, the "young man" seemed to have a natural sensitivity to the strength of living creatures. Facing this monster, he felt that he did not need to tear his clothes apart, and that he could kill it with a single punch, although it would indeed take some time to do so.
He took a step forward, and the monster that had already gone berserk suddenly lowered its body, as if it had encountered some danger. It stared at the "young man"'s every move cautiously.
"Cesbia?"
"Brother Big Eggs?"
Zhuo Ma and Hu Jinxiu wanted to hold the "young man" back, but they gave up immediately as they could not hold him back. Moreover, as long as it was not a huge creature like Purple Emblem Hull, Hu Jinxiu was at least more confident in the "young man" against a beast-like monster.
The "young man" looked at the pale monster's appearance and continued to take another step forward. At this moment, he was only about two steps away from the monster, and he was very close.
The students behind him were so nervous that their hearts were pounding. The daughter of the owner of the house even held onto Ran Ran's arm tightly, watching the "young man" walk toward the monster's back nervously.
The girl under the monster's armpit fainted and woke up, woke up and fainted again, and now she was lying straight on the ground.
The girl said that her name was Heather, but the "young man" did not know her, or perhaps he had forgotten about her.
"You know me?"
The "young man" stopped in his tracks, frowning as he spoke to the pale monster.
Zhuo Ma thought that he was still asking about the girl, so it quickly asked, "She said her name was Heather. Cesbia, do you know her?"
The monster lowered its head even more, and its entire body was arched. Its growl was deep in its throat, as if it was going to launch its most ferocious attack at any time.
A ruthless look suddenly flashed past the "young man"'s eyes, and he took another step forward.
At this moment, there was only one step left between him and the monster!
However, this step, especially that ruthless look, seemed to have crushed some of the monster's nerves. It suddenly screamed and threw the girl under its armpit at the "young man". It actually leaped into the air without looking back, climbed the building wall, and fled quickly!
The "young man" was also very fast. After catching the girl's body, he immediately turned around and passed her to Zhuo Ma. Then, he leaped into the air, stepped on the four-wheeled car covers around him, leaped onto the treetops, and then flew up to the building wall. As he turned, his body was swift and fierce like a black shadow, almost in one go.
The crowd at the corridor's exit suddenly exclaimed,
"An Energy Level Warrior?"
"Teleportation Tactic?"
"Anti-gravity Rapid Release Acceleration?"
…
The crowd that was still shocked by the monster excitedly expressed their knowledge. A guy frowned and thought for a long time before suddenly shouting,
"No! It's the Hull Family's unique skill, Nine Emblem Picture Steps! Oh my god, there's actually someone who has practiced it to such a superb level! "
"That's right, I remember it too! It's too scary, there's really someone who has practiced it to such a level! "
"That person seems to have black hair?"
"Could it really be someone from the Hull Family?"
…
Zhuo Ma chased behind and shouted "young man", but there was no response, so it could only bring Xi Xiu to meet up with Ran Ran first.
Not long after, the speculation of the guy had already spread among the crowd.
The daughter of the Bi family asked Ran Ran nervously, "Are you really related to the Hull family?"
As she said that, the "young man" returned with a swoosh. Before he stood still, he said to Zhuo Ma and Ran Ran, "I'll go after it, you guys go back first."
Before Zhuo Ma could remind him to be careful, his figure was about to shoot directly into the sky in a huge curve. This time, he actually didn't need any help!
However, at this moment, Xi Xiu hurriedly reminded, "Brother Big Eggs, clothes!"
This sentence seemed to have great lethality. The "youth" who had just leaped into the air and was about to enter the curve tumbled down. Fortunately, his reaction was extremely fast. He tapped on the ground and made a few turns. Just like the previous time, he "rolled" and disappeared into the night sky.
Zhuo Ma looked at the discussing crowd and smiled bitterly, "Even if Cesbia doesn't want to enter the army this time, he still has to enter the temple, sigh …"
Xi Xiu said excitedly, "I knew Brother Big Eggs is the best, how can that monster be Brother Big Eggs' match? Sister, do you remember that time on the grassy slope, no, when the ferocious beast Kulan appeared, Brother Big Eggs was pooping … "
Ran Ran hurriedly covered his mouth. Looking at the brightly lit sky, she seemed to see the purple emblem.
…
The pale monster ran all the way to the north, and the "young man" chased after it.
If it was last night, he definitely wouldn't have been able to catch up. An afternoon of fainting had almost drained his strength, and he only managed to recover today.
However, he didn't plan to speed up. Clothes were one of the reasons. After all, this wasn't an empty grassland, but a crowded Sacred City. If he really tore his clothes apart … there was another reason. He wanted to know where the monster would eventually escape to.
The man and the monster kept chasing each other, passing through the buildings and the streets. Under the lights, they looked like two long shadows, one white and one black.
The pale monster seemed to have a natural inclination and ability to cling to walls. Perhaps this was its advantage, as it never walked on the ground and kept moving on the walls in the air. However, its speed wasn't slow at all. Many blue-haired and black-haired people didn't even see what it looked like before it disappeared above their heads, like a white ghost in the air.
However, it seemed to have met its nemesis today. The "young man" behind it was even faster than it. No matter how it tried to use the obstacles between the buildings to shake him off, it was all in vain. The "young man" always appeared no more than ten steps away from it.
Seeing that it couldn't shake him off, the monster could only try its best to escape, running all the way to the north.
Soon, it was out of the city, leaving the startled guards behind. Sticking close to the ground, it twisted and turned, shaking off the whizzing aircrafts in the sky.
Until only it and the "young man" were left, chasing after each other in the deserted wilderness.
The pale monster had good stamina, but the "young man" had better stamina. It tried to turn back and fight the "young man" several times, but it didn't seem to have enough courage.
Following it, the "young man" didn't know how long it ran. Around midnight, the pale monster hissed and went into a hole in the forest.
The hole was not very big. Even if the "young man" was much smaller than it, it was impossible for him to walk upright in the hole.
He had only two choices now. One was to give up the chase, and the other was to climb in.
The "young man" had never climbed like this before. He really didn't know if he could catch up with the monster. In less than a flash of thought, he staggered over the top of the forest and swept over.
He temporarily chose another method, which was to keep track of the "movement" of the monster underground and continue to chase it from the ground.
Meng Xiu once asked him how he knew that the herd of boas would pass by a certain place. He couldn't answer because he didn't know either. He just could feel the "movement."
He sensed the pale monster stop underground for a short while before running forward again. It probably didn't know he was still following it, but the "young man" did not slow down at all.
But the deeper it went, the more obvious the "movement" isolation from the ground became. After some time, the "young man" gradually lost track of it. All that was left was a faint "movement" in the complex environment.
At this moment, a light appeared in front of him. It was different from ordinary lights as it was extremely strong spotlights. When he got closer, he realized this place seemed to be a military base. It was very similar to the stronghold construction site he was at.
He was discovered as soon as he appeared. Several spotlights shone on him, and at the same time, an urgent alarm went off. Several aircraft immediately rose from the base and flew in his direction.
The "young man" sensed the pale monster disappear from here. Then he saw from the ground that there was a huge bottomless black hole in the center of the military base.
Hundreds of spotlights were shining into the black hole, and there were also countless figures bustling around.
Could this be the monster's lair?
The "young man" hesitated for a moment. He had built a military barrier before and knew that it was illegal and dangerous to barge in.
But just as Zhuo Ma said, there were some people and things that you could never go back to once you saw them.
When he arrived here, he felt as if there was something inside that was strongly attracting him!
Uneasiness, danger, resistance … Many emotions rushed into his head, but he still rushed in like a demon.
Gunshots rang out immediately.
Rays of light from the sky and the ground intertwined and whistled towards the 'youth'. A large number of soldiers were well-trained, but they did not dare to be careless. They ran to their respective positions and opened the various weapons that they were in charge of.
However, the speed of the 'youth' was too fast. In an instant, he seemed to have disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already at the bottom of the cave.
Vaguely, someone shouted from above.
"Report, unknown target attack!"
"Report, an unknown target is trying to barge in! “
"Reporting, unknown target has broken through the defense line!"
…
Darkness, endless darkness, falling, falling endlessly …
After a long time, the 'youth' landed on the damp but warm ground. A glimmer of light appeared in front of him.
He followed the light forward, only to find that he was standing on a cliff, and on the other side of the light was an extremely wide space that looked like some sort of cave.
In the bottomless abyss of the cave, he turned a corner along the cliff and finally saw the source of the light — —
It was a large conical body that was slowly spinning, surrounded by countless rays of light as it floated up and down in the bottomless cave.
He looked up at the miraculous six-sided vertebra, and the vertebra also seemed to be 'looking' at him.
Immediately, an unfamiliar yet familiar voice resounded from all directions:
"You're here? I knew you would definitely come "
"You're still outside and haven't entered, which means that you haven't 'put on' your armor yet!"
"I don't know what to say to you right now, because anything I say, you won't understand, and it would only bring more harm than good"
"I can't even tell you who I am, because that would cause your logic to collapse and lead you to the unknown — — even this was a decision that I made after thinking for a long time"
"I can only tell you one thing — —"
"If there comes a day when you need it, when you 'put on' your armor, you will once again become the supreme being with boundless combat power!"
"But once you 'put on' your armor, you must forget everything and return to the endless slaughter, otherwise the conflict will split …"
