Chapter 3: precursor

Views:

Jason stared dumbfounded at a two-meter-long tentacle that glowed reddish in the dark and was full of barbs. Two-finger-thick tentacles protruded from the backpack, wrapping around a thin man like a snake.

One end of the tentacle was hidden in the schoolbag, and the roots could not be seen clearly, while the other end deeply penetrated into the chest of a thin man, sucking and swallowing.

The front end of the tentacle bulged in a very rhythmic circle, and then sank into the end at an extremely fast speed.

The man's face was full of pain, and every time the tentacles sucked and swallowed, he would let out a scream.

But what is even worse is that as the tentacle sucks and swallows, at the root of the tentacle, another brand-new tentacle the size of chopsticks emerges from the opened backpack, as if He waved his arms at Jason and said hello.

But at this moment, Jason's heart was only shocked. He didn't think that the newly appeared tentacles were simply greeting him.

Even though Jason kept telling himself to calm down, his body still trembled slightly.

Ever since he came to the "City That Never Sleeps", Jason has firmly believed in the existence of the mysterious side, and tried to find it in order to "go home", but he found nothing. He told himself that it was just bad luck, or he didn't find it right. direction, no need to be discouraged.

But suddenly, when the real 'mystery' appeared, it was hard for him to accept it for a while.

But this didn't stop Jason's next actions.

Countless simulation drills allowed him to close the car door without hesitation.

As for shooting

He didn't have the confidence to hit the thin tentacle.

And choose the thick one

He didn't think it would be a good idea to interrupt the other person's eating at this time.

Best of all, Jason had better, safer solutions, even if he didn't shoot.

With the safety of the gun off and inserted in the back of his waist, Jason turned around and quickly opened the fuel tank of the car that was close at hand. He pulled out a piece of cloth that he had prepared earlier from his jacket pocket and stuck it into the fuel tank.

When the lighter lit the cloth, Jason turned and ran.

Although it was the first time in reality, Jason knew exactly what was going to happen next.

The newly born monster in the car seemed to feel the crisis, and began to slap on the window frantically.

Crack, crack!

After just two blows, cracks appeared on the bulletproof glass that Jason specially installed.

But, it's still too late.

boom!

The flames from the fuel tank mouth instantly enveloped the entire car.

A deflagration similar to an explosion brought out flames soaring into the sky, illuminating the entire night sky. Jason ran forward without looking back. He didn't even notice a dazzling small fireball flying out of the flames. Fly straight towards him.

It's that thick tentacle!

But unlike what Jason saw before, the tentacle was not only scorched black in the flames, but also withered and shriveled, and its length was less than five centimeters.

However, even this does not hinder the instinct of survival and revenge in the slightest.

laugh!

Jason didn't react at all, and the flaming tentacles pierced his left forearm. Amid the pain of burning flesh and the smell of burning, Jason's brachioradialis muscle was pierced for several minutes.

"ah!"

With a scream, Jason rolled over and fell to the ground.

Jason finally understood why the man was screaming so badly just now.

Because every bite is a heart-pounding pain.

Jason raised his good right hand and grabbed the exposed part of the tentacle, trying to pull it out.

But it didn't work at all!

The scorched black tentacle seemed to be integrated with his left arm.

Not only did it hurt even more when he pulled it, but also a sense of weakness hit his nerves like a tide.

Jason knew very well that if this continued, he would soon die from excessive blood loss.

He doesn't want to die yet!

Everyone is afraid of death, and Jason is no exception.

So, Jason chose the most powerful weapon on his body at the moment... teeth!

He opened his mouth wide, showing his strong teeth, biting towards the end of the tentacle.

laugh!

Contrary to Jason's expectation, the tentacle, which was hard to the touch, was very soft under his teeth, like a piece of ham sausage, and the taste was not bad, the juice had a slight umami taste, a bit like Grilled sea cucumber.

but!

Jason swears, he's never eaten anything so delicious!

Whether it is in the hometown where there is no need to worry about food and clothing, or in the city that never sleeps.

Delicious like never before!

Such an ugly monster... can be so delicious

Surprised in his heart, Jason swallowed instinctively.

A warm current rose from his stomach and quickly spread throughout his body.

Immediately, in front of his retina, lines of text began to appear—

[Predator talent... activated!]

[Swallow Swagnu's Touch!]

[The injury recovered slightly!]

[Saturation +2]

[Predator: Some 'food' will never appear in the recipes of ordinary people, but you are different, your soul in another world makes you so different, for you, there is no 'food' that cannot be eaten—Invasion species? Sorry, I only have endangered species that have been eaten to a few levels! Effect: When devouring 'abnormal food', you will get the corresponding satiation degree, and use the satiation degree to complete some incredible things]

With the appearance of the words, the wound on Jason's arm healed in a breath.

What happened to the text in front of me

Predator

The talent brought by the soul of another world? !

The unexpected unfolding surprised Jason.

But before he could understand what happened, the door of No. 19 Tell Street opened not far away.

The temporary employer with a gun walked out quickly.

The gun in the opponent's hand was aimed at him.

And, without hesitation, he pulled the trigger.

boom!

When the opponent pointed his gun at him, Jason rushed to one side, but the opponent's marksmanship was excellent, and he still hit Jason at a distance of more than 20 meters and Jason moved quickly.

However, it's not the point.

Just shoulders.

Jason felt a numbness in his right shoulder, and then a burning pain.

Moreover, the next moment, such pain spread all over his body, and Jason staggered and fell to the ground.

Step, step.

Footsteps sounded from behind.

Jason struggled to twist his body, and he finally saw clearly the temporary employer who was holding a gun.

Under the black hooded sweatshirt, an ice hockey mask completely covered his face, only revealing his eyes without emotional fluctuations, just like the palm of the other party holding a gun, firm without trembling.

The temporary employer pointed the gun at Jason's chest again and pulled the trigger.

Bang, bang.

two shots.

One shot in the left and right chests.

Jason fell straight to the ground, as if dead.

Anyone who is shot like this is bound to die.

Whether your heart grows on the left side, or the unusual one on the right side.

Jason thought so.

The temporary employer thought so too.

Therefore, the temporary employer pulled up Jason's trousers, turned around with confidence, and prepared to drag Jason back to number 19.

Jason, who was being dragged and was about to die, stared at the words reappearing in front of his retina with his eyes wide open.

[Fatally attacked...]

[Consume satiety for treatment...]

[The amount of satiety is insufficient!]

[It is determined that it cannot be played as a complete treatment!]

[Choose maximum treatment!]

[Healing...]

[Recover from severe injuries!]

After a series of words, Jason, who had already smelled the breath of death, felt himself alive again.

The pain is still there!

Death is gone!

He looked at the back of the person who was dragging him, without any struggle, maintaining the previous posture, allowing the other party to drag him, and then slowly pulled out the pistol stuck in the back of his waist, being as careful as possible not to fire it. little noise.

Then, he opened the safety, aimed at the opponent, and pulled the trigger—

boom!
