There was dead silence on the street.
This was different from yesterday. At that time, people were going to work, going to school, opening shops, shopping, and so on. The monster suddenly appeared and it was chaos!
Now, those who were not dead were almost all hiding in their homes.
The giants had no intelligence. As long as the people hiding in their homes or in the residential area did not make any noise or were not too close to the giants and let them smell human flesh, the giants would not take the initiative to destroy the walls and buildings to prey on them.
Everyone's home would have some food, vegetables, and meat, so it was not difficult to live.
"I'm afraid it will be different after a while … The food stored in the house won't last long. Without food, not to mention the giants, even if there are infected zombies, the people will still walk out of the house under the pressure of hunger."
"At that time, the order of society will truly collapse … Only then will ordinary people understand the misery of the apocalypse …"
Lin Xi sighed.
Now, he was hiding in a big tree, like a falcon waiting to pounce on its prey, observing the surroundings.
His attire was very special.
Jeans and a shirt were common clothes in modern society. However, the shirt looked like he was wearing a vest over it. He wore a brown hard leather armor, which looked neither fish nor fowl. In addition, a dark brown oak shield was tied to his back by a long strap.
There was a lock on the belt around his waist, and the dark sword was tied there so that it could be drawn at any time.
The black sword hilt, under the sun, flashed a layer of dark light, and the blade was wrapped in some cloth.
This sword did not have a scabbard, but there was an advantage to being wrapped in cloth. When the hand was drawn during the battle, under the inertia of the swing, the sharp straight sword could take the opportunity to cut the cloth, revealing the blade!
The bloody meat hook was placed on the branch beside him.
"It's coming!"
Lin Xi saw a giant approaching from the distant street.
Among the giants, most were the ordinary species — they had no intelligence, and only had the instinct to kill and prey on humans. The combat power of the ordinary species was related to their size. The weakest was a three-meter giant, and the strongest was a fifteen-meter giant.
This one was twelve meters tall, and its strength was in the upper echelons of the ordinary species.
"What an ugly monster."
Swollen belly, rough, dull-colored skin, deformed torso, short limbs, sluggish face, a single look at this monster made Lin Xi feel a wave of nausea from the bottom of his heart.
He waited patiently, waiting for the giant to pass the tree and throw the bloody meat hook.
"Hmm?"
Lin Xi noticed that the giant suddenly stopped walking, bent down, and looked at a house. Then, he stretched out his hand and smashed the house.
"There's someone in the house, the giant found us!"
"There's someone in the house, the giant found us!"
The house collapsed, revealing the residents inside. It was a young man and woman in their twenties. They were covered in blood and lying among the bricks. It was unknown whether they were dead or alive. The giant had grabbed them and stuffed them into its mouth.
Following that, the giant pulled out a large basin that had been hidden under the bed. Inside it was a … one or two year old baby!
The baby waved his little white hands and seemed to be giggling.
When he saw the giant use two fingers to pick up the infant, raise it to its mouth, open its thick, swollen, black hairy lips, and then use uneven scorched yellow teeth to bite off the infant's head, Lin Xi's body couldn't help but tremble.
He was not afraid, but angry!
It was the nature of all species to protect their young offspring. Although he was not related to this family, he still couldn't help but feel an uncontrollable anger when he saw a young baby being chewed and swallowed like a pastry.
The flames of anger made his blood feel like it was burning, and his eyes were scarlet red.
Lin Xi instantly jumped down from the big tree he was hiding in and began to run with big strides, holding the bloody meat hook in his hand. Even though he was carrying the heavy chain and the giant hook, under his anger, he covered the distance of four or five hundred meters in less than half a minute.
Feeling the movement, the giant turned its head, and saw the baby's leg at the corner of its mouth. Lin Xi's anger became even more violent.
"F * cking monster!"
Lin Xi suddenly threw the chain in his hand. The chain didn't fly in a straight line, but swept across. When it came into contact with the giant's ankle, it immediately coiled a few times, and the giant hook at the top deeply hooked into the flesh of the ankle.
"Fall for me!"
An incredible strength erupted from the slender body. The power brought by the Progenitor Virus bloodline after the gene fusion was completely activated. Lin Xi wrapped the end of the chain around his waist, and like a boat hauling a boat, he pulled with all his might in the opposite direction.
"Boom!"
The giant's 12-meter tall body collapsed.
Lin Xi's face twisted, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He pulled out the dark sword and rushed forward.
One slash, another slash, and another slash …
Blood kept spurting out. The giant's blood contained high temperature steam, and thick smoke rose up. In the white smoke, Lin Xi used the dark sword to madly slash at the fallen giant. First, he cut off the tendons on the giant's arm, and then crippled the giant's arms. Next, he cut off the giant's thick lips.
"Eat, I'll let you eat. I'll cut off your mouth, and then I'll see how you eat. F * ck you!"
After cutting off the giant's entire mouth, and even smashing the tongue into pieces, Lin Xi slashed off the back of the giant's neck, ending the giant's life.
…
Back on the tree, Lin Xi buried his head between his legs, and he was a little depressed. When he saw the baby being eaten, the anger that surged in him had already been extinguished, and his blood had cooled.
Killing the giant, what meaning would it have to the dead young couple and the baby? They were all dead.
After obtaining the Progenitor Virus bloodline, for the first time, Lin Xi felt powerless.
"After all, I'm not Superman, and I'm not a savior … Forget it, it's useless to think so much. In the post-apocalyptic world, it's enough to be myself."
Although his mood was still very heavy, Lin Xi regained his spirit. In the evening, he killed a total of seven giants. Of course, these were the ordinary ones — — when he killed the last giant, due to his mental exhaustion and physical exhaustion, he encountered a dangerous situation.
He was hit by the giant's slap, which was enough to turn a person into a meat patty!
If not for the fact that he used the oak shield to block the attack at the critical moment, and the hard leather armor also absorbed part of the impact, Lin Xi would have been so heavily injured that he would lose his mobility.
When night fell, Lin Xi returned home. He was very hungry now, and only after eating three portions of food did he alleviate this feeling …
This made him understand that the Progenitor Virus bloodline brought about extraordinary physical fitness. When one's physical strength was greatly depleted, and self-healing, the need for food would also increase.
Currently, water and electricity could still be used.
"The army must have entered the power plant, water plant, and other important places that affect the livelihood of the people. Apart from that, the government compound and the high-class residential area are probably also protected. I just don't know when the ordinary residents will arrive. "
After settling down, Lin Xi secretly recalled the battle today.
Actually, the giants were not easy to deal with. Only the skin and flesh at the back of their neck was their weakness. The other parts, even if they were chopped off, could be completely regenerated — — including the head. To kill the seven giants, he relied on the Bloody Hook. He used the long chain of this weapon to wrap around the giants' ankles or calves.
Moreover, his strength was enough to pull the giants down.
But if there were any accidents, such as being hit by the giant's palm like today, even he would be in danger!
"Today, I've been hunting giants on the streets near the residential area. I didn't have time to spare. Tomorrow, I'll go further and take a look at the supermarket."
Currently, he had a total of 1200 points of life energy. Lin Xi did not use it. He planned to accumulate more before exchanging.
With the Dark Sword, Hard Leather Armor, Oak Shield, and Bloody Hook, these were enough to kill giants!
The residents in the residential area searched for the whole day yesterday but could not find the evolved human. They understood that the "expert" did not want his identity to be discovered, so they temporarily stopped searching.
After resting for a night, when the sky was just beginning to brighten, Lin Xi quietly left.
On the streets, there were occasionally people holding shovels, cleavers, and axes. After all, on the first day after the monsters appeared, the people were in extreme chaos. On the second day, because of the lingering fear of being preyed on by the giants, almost everyone hid in their homes.
On the third day, some people had already realized how stupid it was to not take the opportunity to get some supplies, especially food, and place all their hopes on the government.
Of course, there were also people who wanted to take the opportunity to plunder.
No matter what their motives were, on the third day, they had the courage to go out of their homes and come to the streets where the giants roamed. It had to be said that these were all "men"!
On the way, Lin Xi saw a man in his 40s.
However, he was already a dead man. His torso had been completely bitten off, leaving only his head and two broken hands.
The head's hair was white, and his face was ordinary. He gave off a sense of vicissitudes. One of his hands was holding a spear made of reinforced steel, while the other was holding a large bag. Inside the bag was 15 kilograms of flour.
Lin Xi raised the sack of flour, bending his fingers. He didn't know if it was because of the tremendous force he erupted with when he died, but his fingers were deeply embedded in the sack of flour. Moreover, right now, his bones were rigid, so even with his strength, he actually couldn't immediately pry them open.
He picked up the Dark Sword and was about to cut off his fingers when he suddenly noticed the eyes of the man after he died.
His eyes were still wide open even after death.
There was no fear, no pain, only sadness.
"Anyone would feel fear when facing death. Anyone would feel pain when their body is bitten off, but why is there only sadness in your eyes? What are you sad about? Parents, wife, or child? "
This man in his 40s was not an evolved person. He was just an ordinary person.
Lin Xi was silent. He put the Dark Sword back on his waist and lowered his head. He placed the bag of flour in front of the man's head like a tombstone.
As he walked, he stopped to kill the giants. His use of the Bloody Hook was getting better and better. At least when the giants appeared alone, they would not pose any threat to Lin Xi. When he encountered a group of giants, he would naturally use his extraordinary speed to escape.
After killing four giants, when the sun was at its highest, Lin Xi arrived at the supermarket.
