The Horror of Infinite Reincarnation

Chapter 69: responsibility

Views:

It was not easy to find an underground parking lot in the thick fog. Even though Ruona was familiar with the roads here, she had never been to an underground parking lot. Meng Xiang and the others had to go back to the original supermarket.

The supermarket was in a mess, blood was splattered everywhere, and traces of people killing each other were still visible. The bodies on the ground showed the brutality of the internal strife, some were killed by hard objects, some were chopped to death by knives, and the bodies were scattered everywhere.

In the corner of the supermarket, more than a dozen people were still huddled together, shivering and hugging each other. After the civil strife, they seemed to have come to their senses, and the tragic scene before them made them regretful and desperate at the same time.

"One of our men has died, the count has been reduced by 1 and is now 0." The voice of the Lord God suddenly sounded in Meng Xiang's ears. Meng Xiang sighed and looked at Jie Juan in silence.

Who died? Zhan Ping had the highest chance of death.

Ruona was so frightened when she saw the tragic scene in the supermarket that she hurriedly pulled Vic into her arms and covered his eyes. Meng Xiang strode to the corner and picked up a man in a clerk's clothes. His physical fitness at this time was several times that of an ordinary person. Even in his normal state, it was easy for him to pull up a person.

He mentioned the clerk and asked sharply, "Tell me, where is the underground parking lot nearby?"

The clerk was so frightened that he was panicking and his body was shaking constantly. The person shivering in the corner was frightened by Meng Xiang's shouting and screamed.

Jie Juan hurried over and pulled down Meng Xiang's hand, putting the clerk down steadily, and then said softly with a smile: "Everyone, don't be afraid, do you still recognize us? We helped Ruona go home yesterday, and now we have brought his son Vic here."

There were many people in the supermarket who knew Ruona. After hearing what Jie Juan said, they looked at Ruona who was also standing in front of the door in panic, and their hearts calmed down a lot. The clerk said in a trembling voice: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we shouldn't have believed Carmody. Now now..."

Jiejuan stretched out her jade arms, gently stroked the clerk kneeling on the ground, looked up and said to everyone: "This is not your fault. When people are confused, they always put their hopes on others, and even accept temporary beliefs. This is human nature, not your fault. I heard that there is an underground parking lot nearby, we want to take refuge there, but we don’t know the exact location."

Meng Xiang secretly praised Jiejuan for her calmness and tactful way of speaking. Such a gentle caress and such a tempting lie were not something that most people could think of in an instant.

Those people were obviously very impressed by Jie Juan's trick, and even the reproach of conscience was alleviated a lot. Blaming the mistakes on human nature is a good excuse. The clerk looked up and whispered: "There is only a small underground parking lot nearby, under Hongcheng Plaza less than 1 kilometer to the west. Can we really take refuge there?"

Jie Juan smiled and didn't answer. She turned around and walked to Ruona and asked a few questions in a low voice. Then she turned around and smiled at everyone, waved to Meng Xiang and said, "Let's go. There's no need for us to stay here."

The clerk and others stood up and said in panic, "We want to follow too."

"No, you stay here. Since you believe in that crazy woman, you must believe in her to the end. There are many reasons for doing wrong things, and you must take responsibility for them." Jie Juan answered with a smirk on her face, but her words were so cold.

"Crossing the bridge and pulling the plank out?" Meng Xiang couldn't expect that this newcomer would change his face so quickly. The young woman Jiejuan seemed indifferent to everything. The words she said when she just woke up, "I'm not afraid of death, let alone a mere hell", showed that she was also a person with a story. Although her self-righteousness and cleverness were rather annoying, Meng Xiang had a good impression of her. Of course, the temptation of a young woman was also one of them.

Meng Xiang and his friends walked out of the store. The people in the supermarket stared at them blankly. In fact, their legs were on their bodies, but no one dared to step out of the supermarket. The thick fog had already frightened them. They were like frightened birds, afraid that a monster would suddenly stretch out its mouth in the fog and devour their flesh and blood.

Ruona knew the way to the square. In fact, the square was right next to the highway. After getting in the car, Meng Xiang said to Jie Juan with a half-smile, "Isn't it too cruel for you to treat them like this?"

"Compared to them stabbing the young officer and throwing him outside the supermarket, and watching him being caught by the giant mantis, is it cruel for me to psychologically attack them? Besides, I was lying in the first place, and they would only die if they followed me. I did this for their own good."

“That’s right, they deserve to die.” Ruona said coldly with a wooden face. To her, everyone in the supermarket deserved to die, because when she needed help, no one was willing to help except Meng Xiang and other reincarnations.

In the thick fog, dark shadows flashed around from time to time, and "pa pa pa pa" sounds similar to the flapping of bats rang out all around. Meng Xiang ignored the creatures outside the car. He drove slowly, following Ruona's instructions, and finally arrived near the square.

Meng Xiang felt uncomfortable, as if a pair of sharp eyes were watching him at the entrance of the parking lot. Was it a demon squad? Or a monster? Meng Xiang gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble. He parked the car in front of a building on the side of the road and turned to Jie Juan and said, "I will go to rescue people alone. You hide in the building and don't move. As long as you are not dead, I will come out to pick you up."

Jie Juan nodded, and without asking for details, she watched Meng Xiang get off the car. Meng Xiang found a small truck with the keys still hanging on it from a car parked not far away, but the owner had long since disappeared. He drove the car through the thick fog and into the underground parking lot of the square.

"Sure enough, there is an ambush. There is a murderous aura at the entrance of the parking lot, and there seems to be movement inside. I hope it's not a member of the Demon Squad, otherwise I'll be dead." Meng Xiang said to himself. Through the car lights, he could clearly see the bloodstains in the parking lot, and the "whooshing" sound of wild beasts echoed in the silent parking lot, which was very scary.

Meng Xiang stopped the car, opened the window, and stared at the surrounding situation in silence. Cars were parked side by side in the parking lot. In addition to the breathing of the beasts, there were also some faint movements nearby.

Meng Xiang was anxious and angry. This was not a place to stay for long. Perhaps the members of the demon team would chase him from a distance at any time. He unlocked the potential lock and observed the source of the breathing sound. The rough beast sound came from above the parking lot, while the more hidden movement came from the car on the left.

He continued to drive the car slowly until he drove to the car that had made the slight noise just now. Looking through the car window, Meng Xiang was surprised to see that it was David and the other protagonists of the story.

David and others looked at Meng Xiang's car in horror. In Meng Xiang's eyes, the protagonists of these plots were not living people, but points, each of which was worth 1,000 points. He was about to get out of the car when suddenly there was a "bang" and a heavy object fell from the sky and pressed on the roof, causing it to dent. Meng Xiang was startled and quickly withdrew his hand from pushing the door.

David and the others looked at him from inside the car, their panicked expressions revealing the identity of the object on the roof of the pickup truck. A "hiss, hi" sound like a snake spitting out its tongue came slowly from above. Meng Xiang hurriedly stepped on the accelerator, and the car rushed forward. He suddenly turned, and the object on the roof was impacted by inertia and fell down with a "whoosh".

This creature was no longer like those enlarged insects or animals. The creature in front of me was nearly 3 meters long, with a red body, like an animal with its skin peeled off. It swung its long pointed tail gently, and its strong lower limbs supported its body. Two sharp claws like steel spikes were embedded in its body. Its head was like a winter melon, and its bloody mouth full of sharp teeth was swallowing and spitting out a forked long tongue like a snake.

The image of this creature is very similar to the alien in the movie, and it is very scary. Meng Xiang felt that the aura of the alien in front of him was different from that of ordinary monsters, and it was definitely not ordinary. He stepped on the accelerator, and the truck slammed into the alien.

"Bang!" The strong inertia made Meng Xiang sit up and down, and his forehead hit the edge of the car heavily. Fortunately, his physique was much stronger than that of an ordinary person, so he only felt a little dizzy and was not in any trouble. The terrible thing was that the truck hit the alien, just like hitting an iron pillar embedded in the ground. Not only did it fail to knock the alien away, but it also dented the front of the truck.

Meng Xiang only felt a flash of red light before his eyes, and the windshield in front of the car shattered. He subconsciously turned his head to avoid it, and with a "swish", the alien's tail pierced through the glass like a spear and stabbed into the chair next to Meng Xiang.

Meng Xiang was so scared that cold sweat broke out on his nose. He couldn't even capture the dancing trajectory of the alien's tail even when his potential lock was unlocked. If it weren't for the windshield in front of the car, Meng Xiang's head would have been pierced long ago.

Such a powerful creature is indeed worthy of double B-level difficulty.

"The combat power suddenly jumped from 34 to 718. Yes, it's a member of the Samsara team." A crisp voice came from the exit of the parking lot. What made Meng Xiang feel even more heartbroken was that the voice belonged to Bina, one of the members of the Demon Samsara team who had fought against him not long ago, the beautiful girl who had exchanged for divine armor.
