The Scavengers

Chapter 118: 123|Countdown to 58 hours

Views:

Xiao Mo was reborn after the explosion. Because all his memories were restored and he experienced everything after the catastrophe, he was no longer as indecisive as in his previous life. From then on, he became decisive, cold-blooded, and lived only for his family and his Xiaohong. .

-If Xiao Mo was really dead, it's a pity that he didn't.

He should have died, if he hadn't gotten the ten little dots of light in front of him first, if he hadn't been wearing a bugskin vest, if he hadn't had a system. Of course, the most important thing is his repair ability.

These four conditions are almost indispensable.

The ten small points of light made his body's tolerance far beyond that of ordinary people, and the energy he could absorb was more than ten times greater than before.

As for his exploded body, all the most important internal organs were pocketed in the bugskin vest. They did not scatter in all directions and were still gathered together, ensuring that Xiao Mo could repair his most important internal organs such as heart, lungs and so on as quickly as possible.

The brain, which was directly thrown into by the large light spot, was forcibly stabilized by the system starting all its energy at the moment it was about to explode, and the excess energy was continuously extracted into its own chip.

This behavior is very dangerous for the system, which feels like it is about to burn out due to energy overload.

Fortunately, just when the system's energy capacity reached its peak and was no longer saturated, Xiao Mo's repair ability began to activate, starting with his brain and repairing his entire body.

When it exploded, Xiao Mo didn't feel any pain. He only felt hot all over his body, as if something had been ejected from him.

He had heard about the soul leaving the body, but he didn't know if that was the case for him now.

He saw his limbs exploded into pieces in an instant, and saw the bugskin vest bulge and retract due to the force of the explosion - he was sure that his upper body had turned into a ball of rotten flesh.

He also saw a circle of white light suddenly emitting from his head. He saw his face trembling, his eyes bulging and retracting under his eyelids. The upper part of his head was intact, but the lower part of his mouth, including his neck, looked like... It looked like it had been blown up by dynamite.

The big light point came out of his head, flew swayingly in front of him, and circled around him twice, seeming to be curious about him and a little happy.

Xiao Mo slowly stretched out his finger.

The big light spot also flew up and stopped on the tip of his finger.

"what do you?"

The big light point flew up again, this time it pounced on the heart of Xiao Mo's soul body.

Xiao Mo watched helplessly as the big light point entered his soul body.

In a daze, he seemed to be back in his own body.

It was bad that he started to feel pain, but being able to feel pain is a good thing in many cases. For example, the pain now reminded him to repair his body quickly.

Xiao Mo's repair power started to work subconsciously, starting from the head and extending downwards little by little.

The repair was incredibly fast! Although the whole body will not grow back together in the blink of an eye, it is as natural and smooth as mercury falling down, and it is done in one go.

But when his body was completely repaired, Xiao Mo did not open his eyes.

His physical evolution isn't over yet, it's just the beginning. A three-dimensional diagram of his body appeared in his mind, but this three-dimensional diagram kept changing. He continued to repair his body according to the diagram, and the three-dimensional diagram continued to make fine adjustments.

The system seemed to want to convey something to him, but he only heard a little strange sound of electric current. After a while, the sound of electric current also disappeared, and his connection with the system seemed to be disconnected.

The little vine cat was calm from beginning to end. It calmly watched the human being it regarded as its father explode. It calmly watched him grow its limbs again. It calmly let countless vine whiskers collect Xiao Mo's exploded flesh and blood, not even a drop of blood. None of it was left behind, it was all absorbed and digested by itself.

If this were outside and the flesh and blood hadn't touched the ground, there would probably be a swarm of insects, birds, beasts, and plants all swarming in.

But this is the territory of the little vine cat. Apart from it, no other creature dares to get close to this place. Therefore, all the flesh and blood that its father exploded belong to it.

Xiao Mo was lying here unable to do anything. On the other side, Xue Lihong and a monster with dark purple eyes were fighting to the last moment!

At first glance, this monster looks like an ape with overdeveloped muscles, but it has no fur, and the muscles on its body are purple-black, and they are all knotted together.

If I had to describe it, this monster was like an aggregation of bacon that had been over-salted and left out for a long time.

Its skin and flesh texture were tangled and ferocious, but its resilience was extremely high. Xue Lihong slashed the saw blade into the monster's body countless times, but as soon as it was pulled out, the wound would grow back.

The opponent's minions are also very powerful, and the barbs growing out of his wrists, shoulders, knees, etc. are like sharp blades.

Xue Lihong had many wounds on his body, but he was not impatient at all and was still looking for the monster's weaknesses.

He's found it! This monster is not afraid of being beheaded, because its vitals are hidden in the bulging muscles on its back.

He saw a purple light spot hidden inside. He didn't know what it was, but just seeing the monster continuously wrapping the light spot with its back muscles, he knew that it must be its vital point.

He wants to dig out that purple light spot!

Xue Lihong's legs and feet changed under his pants, as did his hands. He walked around the monster, getting faster and faster, and gradually turned into a black shadow.

The monster will be stunned by the red snow.

It's now! Xue Lihong held a saw blade and turned one hand into a claw like an iron hook, clawing at the monster's back.

Unexpectedly, the monster seemed to notice it, turned around, and faced Xue Lihong head-on again.

"..." The monster opened its mouth wide and suddenly sprayed out a mouthful of purple mist at Xue Lihong.

Xue Lihong stepped back quickly.

The monster caught up, climbed up the wall, kicked off the wall, and hit Xue Lihong with great force.

"Bang!" Xue Lihong was knocked upside down by the monster and flew into the basketball hall.

But one of Xue Lihong's claws dug tightly into the monster's back.

The monster let out a silent scream and tried to shake off Xue Lihong, but it couldn't!

Xue Lihong's body was knocked against the seats in the stands, against the basketball pillars, against the wall, and then into the trapped people.

He saw many small purple points of light in the mist.

But when those spots of light saw him, they didn't pounce on him. Instead, they all avoided him. They seemed to hate him

"It's that monster! Shoot! Shoot!"

"No! There's someone!"

"Bang bang bang!" A large amount of ammunition was fired at the monster and at Xue Lihong at the same time.

There were more than a dozen bullet holes in both Xue Lihong and the monster.

But the monster didn't shed any blood, and the bullets were all ejected by its muscles.

But Xue Lihong was miserable. Except for his upper body, which was wearing a bugskin vest, he was bleeding everywhere where he was shot.

Xue Lihong gritted her teeth and contracted her muscles to temporarily close the wound. But he couldn't force the bullet out because his muscles and bones hadn't grown to this extent yet.

Xue Lihong used both feet to push the monster and hit it towards the stands. He must avoid these trapped people!

The monster was not afraid of guns, but it would probably be painful to be hit by bullets. It also wanted to avoid these trapped people, so it followed Xue Lihong's strength and rolled back to the stand.

Xue Lihong endured the pain of being hit all over his body and inserted his right hand into the monster's back. He felt his hand touch something.

It was a very strange feeling, as if something was testing him.

The monster suddenly rolled violently, and it panicked because it felt that the most important treasure that supported its existence and such power seemed to be planning to leave him and choose its current enemy!

Xue Lihong closed her eyes and tried to establish contact with the purple light spot.

He once lived with a group of ascetics for a while, and those old monsters who had lived for many years once told him: Purple, the color of usurpation, represents courage, courage, and nobility.

As for the purple fairy mushroom, you can acquire fearless courage. If it is completely conquered and digested, you can usurp everything of other creatures for your own use, that is, it can borrow form and energy.

But if you cannot conquer Zizhi, you will be exploited by it in turn and become neither a human nor a ghost. You can only be its puppet, hunt for it, and serve as its chariot and horse, just like this monster.

Although Zizhi is noble, due to its usurping nature, it likes to torture and play with animals and humans. Their food is the souls of the tortured dead. Every time it comes out, a large amount of miasma will rise to confuse passers-by and animals, causing these creatures to suffer to death in the thick fog. At the same time, puppets will be selected from these creatures to use as toys for a long time.

Xue Lihong didn't know if this purple light spot was the legendary purple fairy mushroom, but various signs showed that even if it wasn't, it was not far away.

The light shrank back, refusing to connect with him. Xue Lihong even felt that she heard the other party's scream.

Should we just give up or capture it

But if he gives up, will he still have such a good chance to capture this monster again? And can you get so close to the light point

After thinking again and again, Xue Lihong made a decision in two seconds. He didn't want to give up this opportunity. He couldn't allow the other party to refuse or escape at that moment. He quickly forced out a little liquid from his body and quickly secreted it from his fingertips to the entire paw.

The purple-black monster suddenly showed an expression of extreme fear and distortion, and its huge gnarled body began to shrink!

The monster was in pain, and it whined silently.

Its treasure, the small point of light separated from the larger point of light and given to it, is taking back the power and energy given to it.

The monster's body became smaller and smaller until it finally shriveled to the ground.

Xue Lihong also sat on the ground, holding a small purple light spot in his palm.

The purple light point first took back its strength and tried to escape, but failed. Then it wanted to enter Xue Lihong's body and control him, but suddenly stopped, as if it instinctively sensed danger.

Xue Lihong used some method to imprison the small spot of light, making it unable to escape from his grasp even if it wanted to leave.

It's not that the light spot has no natural enemies, it's just that the natural enemies are too few and too weak, and in turn they are suppressed by them.

But this human being... is very strange, very strange. His aura is annoying to them, and it is strange but also a little familiar.

Could this be the natural enemy of some new mutant species

*

Xue Lihong looked at the dead, shriveled monster. Although it had no fur and its body was like a mummy, it was still possible to tell that the monster should have been a monkey when it was alive.

Xue Lihong stood up, held the spot of light, and walked towards the location in her memory.

He now knew why no matter how many glass windows he broke before, people in the basketball stadium only noticed the glass but not the broken windows.

The interior of the museum has been shrouded in purple mist, which is not as thick as the outside, but seems to be more confusing to the human eye.

And many tiny purple light spots are scattered in the thick fog, playing tricks on those trapped.

Those trapped have all been poisoned by the miasma. They seem to be fighting some invisible monster, but it's just an illusion.

Xue Lihong wants to find Thunder Soldiers, but Zizhi is not afraid of anything else, but is most afraid of Yang Fire. If you want to refine Zizhi, Yang Fire is very important. And he doesn't seek the legendary refining, he just wants to force the light spots into his body. Others are afraid of the light spots entering the body, but he is very eager for it, but these light spots don't seem to like him very much

Originally, it was most effective and simplest to use a magnifying glass to capture the sun's fire, but this was not possible in the dense fog, and he could not bring out the purple light spots out of the dense fog. The other purple points of light didn't touch him now, just because they thought they could control him. If he dares to escape from the purple mist, those purple light spots will probably swarm up to kill him.

He can trap this small speck of light for a while, but it won't work if the number increases and the time goes by.

What's more, he still has to find Xiao Mo and doesn't have much time to try. So finding Lei Bing and asking him for help became the fastest way.

"Lei Bing, it's me, lend me some fire."

Lei Bing looked up and was overjoyed to see Xue Lihong, and blurted out: "Where is Lao Xiao?"

Xue Li's red eyelids twitched slightly, and she slowly approached the group of trapped people, "He's not here."

Lei Bing's face changed instantly, and he did not hide his disgust: "Old Xiao is not here, what are you doing here? Oh, you are not trapped here and can't get out, are you?"

Xue Lihong stopped, looked at the crowd behind him, and said softly: "Captain Lei, walk forward slowly and leave the group of people behind you."

Lei Bing: "What do you mean?"

"Don't look back!" Xue Lihong shouted.

Lei Bing turned around, and the crowd behind him that had been protected by him suddenly became angry and frightened. Many soldiers raised their guns and fired at Lei Bing's back.

Lei Bing: "Fuck!"

Xue Lihong rushed over as fast as she could and knocked down Lei Bing. The two of them rolled on the ground several times.

Lei Bing covered the bloody hole on his body and yelled: "What the hell is going on? What have you done? Nothing good will happen when you show up!"

Xue Lihong dragged him up and ran away: "It has nothing to do with me, it's just that they instinctively hate you." However, they were originally planning to slowly kill you, but I appeared. Maybe they instinctively sensed something, maybe they just didn't want to I'll keep you as a threat.

"they?"

"Purple light spot."

"a lot of?"

"A lot! The fog is everywhere! Breath fire at my hand, quick!"

"...Are you crazy?"

"Yeah, I'll give you a chance to cripple one of my hands, do you want me?" Xue Lihong's eyes were really a little crazy. He used the sun fire to burn the spots and force them to enter his body. These were just his guesses.

If his body couldn't bear it and his hand was burned to ashes before the light spot entered his body, then the light spot would probably escape, and he wouldn't have more secretions to trap the light spot.

Even if the light spot enters his body, it is unknown whether his body can really withstand and digest this energy.

Everything is just based on some legends he heard from those ancient cultivators, and most of those ancient cultivators have not survived until now, and those who are able to survive do not know where they are hiding now.

This is a gamble. If Xiao Mo is still by his side and his hands can be repaired endlessly, then sooner or later he will be able to force the light spot into his body. Xiao Mo is also here. Even if his body cannot bear the light, Xiao Mo will help him repair it.

But now that Xiao Mo is not here, he wants to absorb a speck of light, which is almost like risking his life.

Outside Zhongshan City, the hooded man who was about to enter the base was disturbed by the small thing in his bag and had to stop.

"Guji, what's wrong with you?"

"Goojigji!"

"You said there is a wonderful treasure nearby? Why didn't we notice it last time?"

"Gooji!"

"Huh? It might have been hidden last time, but it came out this time? It's a matter of timing?"

"Goojigji!"

"Okay, okay, don't rush me. Which direction is it? Let's go over and take a look."

At the same moment, Xiao Mo walked out of the underground cave, and the little vine cat followed him, jumping and chasing his feet.

If anyone saw Xiao Mo at this time, they would definitely feel something was wrong.

He was walking, but he was very unsteady and would stop after taking two steps.

His hands were shaking, as if he were swinging. Occasionally, the head will shake suddenly and forcefully.

His eyes were half open, but he looked like he was sleepwalking.

Xiao Mo was moving forward based on instinct. There was so much energy in his body that he was about to explode. The three-dimensional map of himself in his mind was constantly changing and could not be stabilized.

He needed to do something, and he instinctively knew what he should do.

"People..." The man spat out vague words.

But the little vine cat seemed to understand, pulling on his trousers to lead him the way.

Peng Hai stumbled along the rope in the direction indicated by the road sign. He felt that he was about to die. His superpower was only level one, and he was only taken out by the team because he was a space superpower.

Three hours or four hours in the thick fog? He was completely disoriented.

Fortunately, he just accidentally touched the rope and saw the reflective signs left on the ground and walls.

This means that someone has come in to save them. As long as he touches the rope and goes out, he will be saved. At this point, he no longer cares about losing his powers, he just wants to save his life.

But there was too much energy in his body that was not suitable for him. He could not digest it, absorb it, or eliminate it. He could only feel like a balloon being forced to expand little by little. He could even feel that all his cells were stretched to the extreme.

"Poof!" One of his eyeballs shattered.

Peng Hai screamed in pain, covered his eyes and knelt down.

"Poof!" Several bloody holes exploded on his back at the same time.

"Puff puff!"

Help me, someone help me! Peng Hai hunched over and fell down.

Suddenly, a large number of bugs and rats emerged from the dark corners. Then came larger animals such as cats, dogs, and birds.

After the dense fog appeared, many of them died, but some of them survived until now, and all those who survived until now were the flesh and blood of bombers who had eaten the same kind and different kind.

They may not be very intelligent, but they know that if they want to continue to live and get more benefits, they must continue to eat more and more of the flesh and blood of the bombers.

Xiao Mo stopped and turned around, he heard the cry for help.

Immediately, he changed direction and walked towards the direction of the sound.

The little vine cat bit his trouser leg, trying to tell him: There are more humans on the other side.

But Xiao Mo continued walking firmly in the direction of the sound.

The little vine cat stayed in place for a second, as if observing through the vines in the distance. After a while, he probably knew that there was someone in the direction of the sound, and there was no danger, so he jumped up and caught up with Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo saw Peng Hai, no, it should be said that he felt his presence.

He approached Peng Hai as if sleepwalking.

At this time, Peng Hai was surrounded by a large number of birds, beasts, insects and plants. He is still alive, but the little vine cat discovered him and let the vines force other creatures away from him.

Yes, Peng Hai is surrounded by circles of thorny vines, and any creature that dares to come close will be attacked and devoured by them.

Those birds, beasts and insects surrounded Peng Hai. They could only look at him but not eat them. They all dared to be angry but dared not speak.

But there is no way. In addition to the four big light spots in this city center, there are two monsters that cannot be hostile. One is the purple-black monster monkey that has become the boss, and the other is this domineering vine from outside. The former is omnivorous and the latter is plant-based, but both of them now eat flesh and blood, and they fucking love it!

The little vine cat saw these creatures and suddenly opened its mouth to them.

A very, very big green mouth suddenly appeared.

"Meow-"

"Woof-"

"Zhiji—"

All creatures are scared away!

The little vine cat closed its mouth with satisfaction and looked at the prey on the ground which was still intact. It jumped up on Xiao Mo's shoulder very proudly and gently rubbed his face with its head.

Look, dad, I’ve saved all the delicious food for you!

Xiao Mo squatted down.

Peng Hai opened his only remaining eye, "Save... me... save..."

He wants to live, not die. He is only twenty-one years old and he wants to go home.

Xiao Mo reached out and held his neck.

Peng Hai saw the weird little vine cat, with blood and tears streaming from his eyes. He noticed that Xiao Mo was weird. He thought that this person was also controlled by a monster, just like his friends.

"Mom... I'm sorry..." Peng Hai closed his eyes.

On the other side of the world, several white multi-purpose vehicles with the words "Jino Bioengineering Research Institute" printed on their bodies stopped at the edge of a small town covered with weeds.

If Xiao Mo were here, he would definitely feel that the pattern on the car was very familiar. This pattern had appeared several times in the computer of the underground research institute with almost no special logo.

He would definitely not remember the pattern he had glanced at before. But now his subconscious memories are all revived like pictures. As long as it is something he has seen or heard in the forgotten memory, even if he just glances at it, as long as he sees the same scene, he will feel familiar, and he will start from there. Find it in the memory picture library.

"There is a colored light spot here, black. Many people have witnessed it, but no one has been able to capture it successfully." A person who looked like a mercenary said.

"Cough, cough, let's go in and take a look. I hope our newly developed trap will be useful." An old man on a walking stick, covering his mouth, ordered with a little difficulty.

"Dr. Qiao, your body..." None of the large group of researchers agreed to Dr. Qiao entering the town in person, and everyone spoke out to stop him.

"You can't die, just go in. Cough, cough!" This is the first time that the system has issued a leapfrog challenge mission to him. If this mission can be completed, he will not only be able to leapfrog and become the highest level superpower in the world, but he will also He could get a gene repair agent that he wanted most.

The gene repair agent is not a gene evolution agent, but a gentler and ultra-valuable drug specially used for the elderly and seriously ill people. This gene repair agent has another name for this reason: youth restorer.

Ever since the system told him that there was such a potion, he had been dreaming about getting it every day, and now the opportunity finally came!
