Lu Ning was sent back to her room. The noise outside seemed to have little to do with this place. Xuan Zhitong received medical supplies and helped her thaw her broken arm and bandage it, but Lu Ning didn't say a word during this period.
This mission was different from the invincible monsters she had faced before. The monster's strength was also limited. If it was just a matter of survival, Lu Ning knew that she could easily get through it.
However, it was this hunting that forced everyone to fight tooth and nail, and also increased the danger by an unknown amount. She knew that two evil claws had been hunted, but they were only two, and they were still two weak ones whose strength and even abilities had been proven.
More evil claws are coming with other armies. The dragon-shaped evil claw in the sky doesn't know when it will come. Maybe if that kind of existence sneezes, the entire shelter will turn into a lump of ice.
"Lu Ning, does it hurt?"
Xuan Zhitong asked her carefully.
"No...still don't feel it."
The severed arm was exposed to the air at minus 30 degrees Celsius. I am afraid that part of the upper arm was frozen to the point of necrosis. The nerves could not transmit signals. How could she feel?
Didn’t you see that even after thawing, not a few drops of blood came out?
Lu Ning doesn't mind taking some losses, but it's not her style to be unable to find a way to regain her position after suffering a loss.
"Take a rest first. We have to hunt the evil claws from the south. You have to be prepared. I have prepared the mine for you."
"Then, you, can, defeat?"
Now Lu Ning doesn't look like he has the ability to kill Evil Claw.
"It's okay to give up if appropriate."
The only advantage of survival and hunting coexistence is that you will be sent back to the distribution center when your survival time is up. There is no compulsory requirement to complete the hunting mission. If you feel that you are really not good enough, you are also allowed to survive by living quietly.
"I will not give up."
Lu Ning gritted her teeth. When the temperature gradually rose, she finally had some consciousness, but it was worse than nothing!
"I don't want to die, but it's not a certain death situation now... The shelter is still there, and the traps we set are still there. Sister Yun also told me the flaws and abilities of the beetle. In the face of such advantages, it doesn't matter if I lose a hand. What? If I don’t earn enough points this time, my promotion test will be in vain. God knows what chance I will have if I miss this time..."
Speaking of this, Lu Ning coughed twice. In such weather, beads of sweat actually appeared on her forehead.
"No, I have to take it slow... Xuan Zhitong, I'm going to sleep for a while. Wake me up when you receive news from the monster in the south."
Lu Ning slowly lay down on the bed and wrapped the quilt around her body to retain the little warmth.
However, one question still bothered her.
——The evil claws that can cause amnesia are definitely not hiding in trees. After all, burning the woods will have no effect on it. But that being the case, why did Xuan Zhitong and Jiang Nuo almost stand still after losing their memory? Even if there is not enough time, wouldn't he move closer to her after seeing her being attacked?
vine……
Drowsily, Lu Ning dreamed of a movie-like scene.
Countless monsters charged towards the shelter. The shells were empty, the bullets were exhausted, people drew their weapons and rushed towards the huge impact elephant, and then were crushed.
Sitting on the four huge impact elephants were four evil claws.
A woman with a vine on her head, two stone monsters with opposite views, and a hedgehog clinging to the back of the impact elephant.
She seemed to know something, but she couldn't wake up from the dream on her own.
At this time, Ran Yinan and Tuliba outside finally found Zhu You, and it was thanks to the uncle Zhong Keli.
Although this uncle cannot use magic in this world, he is still quite good at divination and other tricks, and his accuracy is not low. After trying about seven or eight times, the three of them finally found themselves behind Shelter 33. Zhu You, holding a gun and shivering, was found in a half-built adobe house.
"Zhu You? You are here! Great, everyone is looking for you. Don't worry, the big snake monster has been killed. There is nothing nearby that can threaten you. Let's go back."
Ran Yinan persuaded Zhu You in a gentle and slow tone as much as possible. She knew that Zhu You couldn't stand any stimulation now.
"Kill, kill?"
Zhong Keli lit a cigarette, which was immediately blown out by the cold wind.
"Girl, there really are no monsters anymore. Today's battle is over. Those people from the Silver Star Society are probably still chasing one outside. It's really safe in the shelter."
"But, but I'm still scared. I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Don't rush me! I don't know where it is, but...monster, monster..."
"The monster has been killed. Girl, I beg you, can you let me go back and have a cigarette? The wine is frozen, can't I not even take a sip of the cigarette?" Zhong Keli was also embarrassed, He immediately changed his tone of pleading.
Zhu You crossed his arms, his body still trembling, and finally raised his head.
"But, but, I...I'm afraid...I don't know why...I still want to leave this place and don't come back...don't come back!"
Ran Yinan frowned slightly and suddenly noticed something.
Crunch.
"Girl, be careful!"
A sudden push came from behind her, pushing her directly into the house, followed by a series of intensive gunshots, a muffled groan and Tuliba's somewhat uncontrollable roar from outside.
"Lin Qi! There is a monster still in the shelter! Zhu You is still scared, she must have felt something! Send someone over immediately! We are being attacked!"
Ran Yinan started shouting into the walkie-talkie, but at this time, the only sound coming from the walkie-talkie was the sizzling sound of electricity, which was messy and unintelligible.
"More than one?"
In the command room not long ago, the leading people were discussing matters related to today's battle and rearranging the layout of various minefields and traps. However, just when they had just reached an agreement, the lights suddenly dimmed.
"The lightbulb is broken? The wires are finally frozen and defective?"
Someone said impatiently.
Cao Xiong's voice immediately overwhelmed everyone.
"Where are the backup lines? Where are the maintenance personnel? Where have they all gone? Hurry up... ugh!"
When Lin Qi finally touched the flashlight and turned it on, he heard Cao Xiong groan. He quickly shined his flashlight. In the room of surprised eyes, Cao Xiong stood in front of the table, his eyes wide open, and an arm made of sharp and hard stones emerged from his chest, covered in blood. On this stone fist, it is slowly flowing downward.
"monster!!"
Someone yelled and ran toward the door, but fell to the ground with a thud as he took a step.
The ground had softened at some point, and everyone's feet were slowly sinking. Even if they wanted to pull out, it was as inconvenient as a quagmire. At this time, the evil claw had already pulled out its fist, walked around the person who was about to escape, raised a fist about the same size as a person's head, and punched him hard.
Click.
The sound of broken bones was so loud that everyone realized the end they were about to face.
Only Lin Qishang could remain calm.
"Wrong size."
In the recorded video, the size of this stone man is between three and four meters. Although it is petite among the evil claws, it is absolutely impossible to be similar to humans today.
"Being able to soften the ground doesn't include the ability to make oneself bigger or smaller, right? Unless the intelligence is wrong, Evil Claw usually only has one innate ability... By the way, the light-extinguishing thing just now is an electromagnetic pulse ? No, my flashlight is still on, so it’s just overcurrent..."
While he was speaking, the stone man had already killed the third person. People who could not move quickly could only look with horror on their faces, praying that the next one would not come towards them. Everyone could see clearly that this evil claw was Kill whoever wants to run first.
"The communication interruption should be due to electromagnetic wave disruption. If you are unable to continue to act, it will be restored after a while. In this case, the enemy's abilities are to soften the ground, change the size of the body, and...transplant traits."
Lin Qi took his hand out of his pocket, pressed the button on the recorder in his hand to stop recording, and then threw it out through the small window.
"Everyone is welcome, please receive this message. The shelter is indeed a trap... Now I understand... It is impossible to rely on this place to fight back... I misjudged the fate of this place."
He raised his gun and his voice suddenly became louder.
"Run! You run now! Tell everyone you see the characteristics of these evil claws, and - the shelter cannot be defended!"
The bullets shot out, breaking several rocks on Evil Claw's body, and successfully attracted its attention. Lin Qi held the table with one hand and jumped directly onto the table. His feet suddenly felt light. He quickly pulled out the second magazine and reloaded, continuing to attract the attention of Evil Claw.
When people saw his actions, they suddenly woke up. Someone immediately kicked over a stool to use as a stepping stone, and ran outside while the evil claws smashed the table.
The ground outside is still hard!
"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack! Evil claws sneak in! Help! Help..."
The shelter echoed with people's chants. While Lu Ning was in a daze, she felt a little tight in her chest.
"Lu Ning! Get up and attack! What should we do?"
She opened her eyes and saw a panic-stricken Xuan Zhitong rushing towards her, shaking herself vigorously to get her up.
"What's wrong? Is... being attacked outside? Are there ghosts?"
"Evil Claw!"
"Is there any evil claw that can become invisible?"
"No, it's clear. Get up quickly and run away!"
When Lu Ning grabbed her backpack and ran outside, there was already a huge fire outside. Molotov cocktails illuminated the shelter, and the sound of gunshots was heard everywhere. The number of monsters that invaded the shelter was not very large, but the chaos caused by the beheading of the top commanders continued, and only a few people were resisting.
"Where's Lin Qi? Where's Cao Xiong? What are they doing!"
"Dead! All dead!"
The shouts from the crowd penetrated into Lu Ning's ears.
"I haven't been able to hold on for a whole day...Xuan Zhitong, what time is it now?"
Xuan Zhitong took out a watch from his pocket and handed it to Lu Ning.
"Twenty past nine. Let's go to the underground garage."
