"You mean, here, in the city where I live, there is a monster in the real world?" Although Zhang Heng is calm and has been in contact with supernatural phenomena in recent months, he still feels a little bit strange when he hears this statement. incredible.
"Well... the details are not very accurate, but that's probably what it means." The old man took out another pack of Wangzai soft candy from his pocket, his mouth seemed to be completely restless, "but don't worry, lost It's weaker than ever after the Cult of the Arquez, and it was just a snap of the fingers in my prime to deal with this lowlife."
"what about now?"
"Now... didn't I just find a helper?"
"...It sounds really reassuring." Zhang Heng followed the instructions of the old man in Tang suit and drove the Audi A6 to another street.
"Relax, although my strength has also weakened a lot, we have two people, and it only has one. We have an absolute advantage in numbers." The old man in Tang suit encouraged, and at the same time quickly finished eating the soft food Sugar, according to the way he eats it, Zhang Heng doubts whether he will develop diabetes.
"I still don't understand why a monster located in Papua New Guinea would travel all the way here?"
"Its original believers, those Arquez people, are all dead. To explain it in the more popular economic terms today, although it has escaped from the prison of time, the market in Papua New Guinea has now been carved up. It can’t survive there, and if it wants to regain its strength, it needs to find new believers, so it can only leave its hometown and come here with a Chinese couple.”
"I met it at Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai. This idiot has been locked up for too long and has lost touch with society. It may think that there are many people there and want to try its luck, but 99% of the people who go to the airport will not Stay there, and it’s okay to fool the natives for 20,000 years with its set of things, but it’s out of date now. After staying there for half a month, I deceived two old cleaning women, and one of them left himself The time was sacrificed to it, and there was another one who was hesitating, and then it saw me and started to run away."
The old man moved his buttocks and changed to a more comfortable sitting position, "I have been dealing with this matter since we met last time. I have been chasing it for almost two months. With your help tonight, it should be fine." Get rid of this trouble, otherwise this guy will come to you sooner or later."
"Why?"
"Because the [Time Anomaly] on your body is fatally attractive to it, and because you are my agent, after these two months of friendly relations, I am sure that thing wants to take revenge on me 100%." The old man Then he said, "Turn left at the intersection ahead, take the side road, and don't go to the elevated road."
Zhang Heng was silent. He was quickly digesting the words of the old man in Tang suit, and said after a while, "Did the world become crazy after you found me, or was it already so crazy?"
The latter showed a meaningful smile, "You are a smart person, and you immediately realized what the problem is. As long as you play the game, you will get the answer soon. Some things, if you don't see it with your own eyes, it's hard to be true. Just to believe it... park in front and I can feel it close by."
Zhang Heng stepped on the brakes, and the Audi A6 came to a slow stop in a small tunnel.
This tunnel is 2.8 kilometers long and is located in the center of the city. It is considered to be fully enclosed so as not to cause noise pollution to the surroundings. At this time, there are not many vehicles in the tunnel. Zhang Heng has not seen anything suspicious for the time being. He wanted to ask, but saw the old man put a finger on his lips.
Zhang Heng turned off the engine, and the world became completely silent. About half a minute later, there was a sound of footsteps coming from the top of the tunnel, coming from far and approaching, but it stopped abruptly when it was about to arrive.
After five minutes like this, the two people in the car were very calm and did not say a word. Just when Zhang Heng thought the thing had disappeared, the roof of the car was suddenly hit by a heavy object. Zhang Heng Two footprints appeared on the steel plate above the head.
The next moment a strange face poked down from the windshield.
It was a monkey-like thing, but its eyes were huge, occupying about one-third of its entire face. Unlike monkeys, it didn't have any hair on its face, only wrinkles like old people's.
Zhang Heng saw the color of greed in those yellow pupils, but when that thing saw another person in the back seat, his expression changed, and he turned his head and ran deep into the tunnel.
"Follow it!" The old man in Tang suit finally said.
Before he had time to ask Zhang Heng, he turned on the engine again, stepped on the accelerator, and the steel behemoth let out a roar and sped forward.
Zhang Heng turned on the high beams, and under the headlights, the monster named Moresby was jumping and running on the tunnel wall. It moved very fast, and seemed to completely ignore gravity.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhang Heng wouldn't have believed that there were such creatures in the world. He finally knew why the old man in Tang suit had been chasing this thing for almost two months without gaining anything.
With his current lv2 car driving skills, he can barely keep up with the other party. This is because the light of the tunnel is taken up. Once he leaves this confined space with only two directions, with this guy's agility, he can find a building to go to. Once drilled inside, even if his driving skills were ten times stronger, it would be impossible for him to keep up.
Fortunately, at this time, the old man in Tang suit sitting behind finally made a move. He opened the broken travel bag that he had been holding in his arms all this time, took out several pieces of rusty iron from inside, and assembled them in a certain order. Together, it ends up being a rusty long gun.
From the appearance alone, this does not look like a weapon, but more like a newly unearthed cultural relic.
"I borrowed this thing from a friend, and I will use it temporarily." The old man in Tang suit explained, holding the spear, opened the skylight, and stood up from his seat.
He is obviously not tall, but at this moment, he has an illusion of incomparable stalwart, as if he has merged with the sky and the earth.
Zhang Heng tried his best to keep the Audi A6 running smoothly and reduce the shaking, but the old man in Tang suit didn't make any aiming action at all, just threw the long gun casually.
And as soon as the long spear was released, a flash of light pierced the sky burst out! Like a bolt of lightning.
The monster named Moresby also seemed to be aware of the danger, increased its speed again, and started jumping crazily in the tunnel, but no matter how it evaded, the long gun was always firmly fixed, as if it had a guidance system installed. locking its body.
In the end, it could only push its speed to the limit, and it was about to escape from the tunnel. However, the next moment, the spear pierced through its back, piercing its chest.
As if suddenly losing all his strength, Moresby fell from the air and fell on the asphalt road at the entrance of the tunnel.
