The Ninth Secret Bureau

Chapter 10: The monster in the burrow

Views:

The red light on the door came on, and the elevator stopped.

While the elevator door was slowly opening, both Chen Xian and Fatty Huo couldn't help taking a step back, because this place was different from the twenty floors in front, and the difference was so strange.

This is a cave.

Except for the elevator that descended vertically here, the other places are rocks and mud, and there is no trace of man-made traces, and the area is not too big, almost the size of a basketball court.

There is a hole in the front left, and the inside is filled with darkness, and there is no light to be seen.

"Be careful, follow me." Chen Xian said in a low voice.

Fatty Huo only dared to nod his head, hurriedly extinguished the cigarette in his mouth, drew out his pistol and got ready to meet the enemy.

The atmosphere in the cave is very depressing, perhaps related to the smell.

The putrid smell emanating from the human limbs on the top 20 floors seems to have spread down the elevator shaft, filling this weird confined space underground. Difficulty breathing.

"Xiao Chen, are there any unclean things here?" Fatty Huo couldn't help asking, his heartbeat was so fast that his face flushed, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

"Spiritual body?" Chen Xian asked.

Fatty Huo hummed, and said, "So many people died, it's not surprising that there are one or two, right?"

Chen Xian remained silent, carefully observed the surroundings, and quickly gave Fatty Huo an affirmative answer.

"There is no spirit body, but the smell of blood here is very strong, there may be something else."

When he first heard the words "no spirit body", Fatty Huo was still extremely excited, and the tense expression on his face became much more relaxed, but after hearing the following words... there is something else

"There is a sound of breathing."

When Chen Xian said this, he turned his head slightly and listened carefully to the voices coming from the corner of the cave.

From this position, he couldn't see anything, but Chen Xian did hear a very faint breathing.

"Breathing sound?" Fatty Huo was taken aback, and looked in the direction Chen Xian was looking at, with a very puzzled expression, "There's nothing there, and I didn't hear the sound of breathing, did you hear it wrong..."

Fatty Huo's voice stopped abruptly, because he noticed that Chen Xian raised his head, as if he saw something, and his expression became extremely surprised. This was the first time he saw such an expression on Chen Xian's face.

Following Chen Xian's gaze, Fatty Huo also looked over carefully.

On the top of the cave, in the dark corner covered by shadows, there was a person crouching faintly.

"It doesn't seem to be a spirit body, but an entity." Chen Xian said, took a step back calmly, pulled Fatty Huo back, and stared at the person lying on the ceiling.

The bloody smell in the air originated from this person.

Of course, using the word "human" to describe it is actually not accurate.

According to the system description in Fatty Huo's department, it should be like this.

The target is roughly human-shaped, about 230 centimeters in length, and the gender cannot be determined for the time being. The target's skin tissue is severely missing, and the legs have abnormal changes. The curve from the thigh to the ankle has bird biological characteristics. twice that of men.

It can be judged from the basic form that the target belongs to abnormal life.

"Can you deal with it?" Fatty Huo aimed his gun at the monster, put his finger on the trigger, but he didn't dare to fire at will, he just asked anxiously.

In Huo Fatzi's eyes, although Chen Xian was a stranger, it seemed that his ability could only deal with those spirit bodies.

In the concept of abnormal life, the spirit body is only a big branch. In addition to the spirit body, the concept of "abnormal life" also contains many strange things. The monster they met now is an example.

"Hard to say."

Chen Xian raised his head, looked at the monster lying on the top of the cave, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

The degree of danger of abnormal life can be judged by the energy carried in their bodies. The higher the content of yin and yang particles, the greater its ability, but as far as the current situation is concerned... Chen Xian still can't perceive the energy of this monster.

This monster is like a mass of air that can breathe, and it doesn't emit any energy. If it didn't make a sound of breathing, it would be difficult for Chen Xian to even find it. ignore it.

The monster was wearing a tattered piece of clothing, which was so stained with blood that it couldn't see its original color, but judging from the curved structure of the neckline and shoulders... the clothing looked familiar.

Chen Xian felt as if he had seen it somewhere.

At this moment, the monster also realized that it was discovered by Chen Xian and the others. The rough breathing sound gradually became louder, and a pair of bloodshot eyes slowly opened, staring closely at the two people below.

"Get out of the way!"

The moment Chen Xian shouted, he quickly dragged Fatty Huo to take a step aside.

In just an instant, there was a hole where Fatty Huo was standing before.

The hole on the ground was as big as an adult's fist, with irregular and very rough edges, as if it had been smashed out by some kind of blunt instrument, and there was a stench and a pungent smell inside.

"What?" Fatty Huo panicked, and asked with a pale face, "What fell down just now?"

Chen Xian stared at the monster with his head up, and replied in a deep voice, "Tongue."

Before the monster made a move, Chen Xian could clearly see that it opened its upper and lower jaws. When he instinctively pulled Fatty Huo to dodge, a bloody strip emerged from its mouth. Judging from its shape, it seemed to be Tongue.

With a muffled sound, the monster fell from the top of the cave.

Fatty Huo held a bright flashlight in one hand, and clenched the pistol tightly in the other. His fat body trembled slightly due to tension, and fine beads of sweat continued to slide down his forehead. In a state of mental tension.

"Don't be afraid." Chen Xian said softly, "I will stand in front of you in case of danger. After all, this is my job. If I don't die, you won't die either."

"Why do you feel so flustered when you hear this..." Fatty Huo trembled, forcing a smile uglier than crying from his fat face.

Chen Xian glanced at Fatty Huo, seeing the nervousness on his face, he couldn't help being a little surprised.

According to common sense, the detection department should be the department that deals with these abnormal beings the most, but looking at Fatty Huo's appearance, why does he seem a little scared

"Don't look at me, look at that thing!" Fatty Huo noticed Chen Xian's gaze, his expression was a little uncomfortable, and his tone of voice became a bit aggrieved, "I'm not a combatant who often goes to the front line, even if I go On the front line, I am also responsible for long-distance sniping targets, and I have never fought them in close combat... "

Chen Xian couldn't help laughing, and took a step forward calmly.

After landing, the monster was not in a hurry to attack Chen Xian and the others. Instead, it rolled its deformed eyeballs and kept looking at them, as if observing something.

"Is your marksmanship accurate?" Chen Xian asked suddenly.

Fatty Huo nodded instinctively: "It's okay."

Chen Xian stood in front of Fatty Huo and said without turning his head.

"It's targeting you."

"It's me?" Fatty Huo was taken aback, "Why! I didn't attack it! I didn't even pull the trigger!"

"It doesn't have much to do with the gun, probably because it thinks you are weaker than me." Chen Xian said with a calm face, not joking, but as if he was analyzing something seriously, "The persimmon is soft Damn, this is a biological nature that cannot be violated."

The characteristics of abnormal life forms are no different from ordinary life forms. When dealing with enemies or prey, they have instincts that are almost like beasts.

When faced with multiple targets, they usually pick the weakest target to attack.

Their method of judging the strength of a target is the same as that of Chen Xian and others who judge the strength of an enemy. They all judge by observing the opponent's "Qi", in other words, the amount of energy particles diffused from the opponent's body.

Whether it is Yin attribute or Yang attribute, the more particle energy that can be perceived by people, the greater the ability.

So in the eyes of that monster, Fatty Huo was the weaker side, while Chen Xian was a very dangerous target, because it felt a strange aura from this thin and frail human being.

This breath makes it feel dangerous.

"boom!"

Accompanied by this strange muffled sound, a thick and pus-filled tongue ejected from the monster's mouth, like a frog preying on insects, the tip of the tongue went straight to Fatty Huo's head.

And at this moment, Chen Xian also made a move.

Before the monster could react, Chen Xian outrageously stretched out his right hand and grabbed the tongue, like a tug-of-war, and began to pull back with all his strength.

"I'll hold it back, and you'll find a chance to shoot it in the eye."

"clear!"
