"One, two, three … hmm … there are five of them." Feng Bujue counted as he walked to the middle of the street, away from the brightest spot.
He stepped on the hood of a car and stood on top of it. He gripped the wrench with one hand, and his eyes and ears were alert. He risked his life by standing at this vantage point, trying to lure the monster babies into the trap.
Wang Tanzhi took out his Fruit Knife and put on the armor that he had obtained from the Solo Survival Mode — a black helmet. It looked rather strange. He and Long Aomin stood back to back. They were not too far away from the streetlights, and they each took a different direction.
Their way of dealing with loneliness was similar to the scene in horror movies. The woman hugged the man's arm, and the man stood in front of the woman. It was a suicidal stance.
The monster babies weaved through the shadows on the street. They used the shadows of the buildings and cars to hide themselves. These monsters were indeed fast. They appeared in places where light could reach them for at most one second before disappearing in a flash.
Feng Bujue stood further away from the streetlights, and there were more shadows around him. As expected, he was the first to be attacked. A monster baby leaped from the ground and leaped two meters into the air. It lunged at Feng Bujue from the side.
He had expected this, so he turned to face it and saw the monster jump right before him. This monster's skin was a copper-green color, and its body was shaped like a baby's. Its face was extremely ugly, and it had a mouth full of jagged yellow teeth. Its forearms were replaced by two small sickles, and below its knees was a pair of animal legs that ended in hooves instead of feet.
The reason Feng Bujue chose to stand on the roof was because the monsters were less than one meter tall. To attack a target that was high up, they would have to jump into the air. Now that the monster baby had jumped into the air, it would be suspended in the air, and it would be unable to evade for a period of time.
In terms of strength, Feng Bujue obviously had the upper hand, and this was a bait. He was well prepared. He aimed at the monster baby's head, and from top to bottom, his hand came down with a clamp. The sound of the clamp being clamped could not have been more disgusting.
You can imagine that a watermelon was flying towards your face, and you smashed it in midair with a stick. However, the watermelon was filled with rancid liquids, sticky pus, and semi-solidified slurry. It exploded and splashed towards you due to inertia …
This was what happened to Feng Bujue. Even the smell of the 'liquid' that splashed on him was very real. At that moment, Feng Bujue was radiating a dark and mysterious presence. To put it more simply … he was covered in the stench of decay.
Even though the monster baby was killed by Feng Bujue in one hit, there were still four other monsters around him. Perhaps their number was based on the number of players, but they were not set to attack different players.
Other than Feng Bujue, the others were standing under the light. Those who had watched horror movies knew that the monsters targeted those who were alone. Therefore, the other four monsters ignored the others and surrounded Feng Bujue, who was hiding in the dark.
In this situation, Feng Bujue was indeed nervous, but unfortunately, he did not feel any 'fear'. He was still able to think calmly, so he ruled out the idea of running back to the street lamp. At that moment, he had a rough idea of the speed of the monster babies. He knew very well that as soon as he got down from the roof of the car, if two monster babies were to charge at him at the same time within five seconds, his legs would be chopped off by one of the sickles.
Standing on the same level, these small and fast monsters were not easy to deal with. Feng Bujue believed that with his current ability, he could handle one on one, but one on two, he would definitely be injured.
The second monster baby jumped at him ten seconds later. Feng Bujue had no idea when the other three would jump, but he had to deal with the one before him first. He repeated the same trick and swung the wrench. This time, it was not as accurate as the first time, but the wrench still landed on the side of the monster baby's head. The fire element and Heavy Hit on the head provided a good effect, and the second monster baby was killed.
The third wave of attacks came before Feng Bujue could pull his arm back. This time, two monsters jumped at him at the same time. They jumped at Feng Bujue from both sides. If he turned around to block, he would only be able to block one of them, and it was hard to say whether he would be able to kill them in one hit again.
In the blink of an eye, a golden light flashed in the distance, and a burly figure entered the battle in the blink of an eye. Long Aomin moved like he was on a skateboard. His feet did not move at all. It was clear that he had activated some kind of skill.
As expected of a level ten character, he was powerful in battle. Long Aomin raised the shield before him and used the skill to close in on one of the monsters, knocking it away. Then, he opened his arms and used the edge of the shield to brush against the waist of the other monster baby, causing it to lose its balance in the air and deviate from its trajectory.
Feng Bujue naturally would not miss this opportunity. With this two-second pause, he had enough time to react. He used the wrench to take down the monster baby that was injured at the waist. Instantly, the smelly liquid splashed everywhere.
Seeing that he had taken care of that monster, Long Aomin rushed to the monster baby that he had knocked away earlier. When he was close enough, he bent his knees, raised the shield, and slammed it down.
The monster baby had just landed after being knocked away by the skill. Before it could regain its footing, it saw a large man charging at it, so it raised the scythe in its hand to block. Even though it created some sparks on the surface of the shield, as a monster that was not that strong, it was impossible for it to cut through this piece of excellent equipment.
Long Aomin roared and slammed the shield into the monster several times. After a few screams, the monster baby turned into meat paste. It was dead.
"Where is the last one? Let's cut it down together. " Wang Tanzhi had just run to the side. Actually, he had rushed over together with Long Aomin, but Long Aomin had used his skill to move, so he arrived in half a second. In those few seconds, Brother Long had completed one kill and one assist.
"Don't let your guard down. I don't think things will be that simple …" Before Feng Bujue could finish, the surroundings suddenly turned dark. All the light in the city disappeared in that moment, including the moon in the sky.
The whole world seemed to have been swallowed by something, and it was plunged into complete darkness. The sound of breathing, whispering, and laughter … Everything became clear at that moment. It was as if they were right beside them, in the darkness that they could touch but could not see clearly.
Several seconds later, similar to the cinematic at the start of the game, the blurry moonlight shone down again. The street lights came back on, and the surroundings returned to how it was before.
As for the last monster baby hiding in the shadows, after the baptism of the strange darkness, it had undergone a drastic change.
