"Put the things away! Let's go over and take a look!"
Regardless of whether the owner of the scream met a gangster or encountered some unlucky abnormal event like yesterday, it is always right to go and take a look first. After all, it is rare for Elizabeth and the doll sister Zhao Sida to be unified. Opinion - Something is wrong with the current situation. There is nothing wrong with taking the initiative to collect some information. What's more, considering Wu Ming's selfishness, he still wants to join in the fun of such an unusual incident.
After all, the two superwomen following him gave Wu Ming a lot of confidence, so if he encounters any abnormal event, even if he can't win, he can at least escape by running...
The two of them ran wildly in the direction of the scream. As they gradually 'deepened' into this strange world at a certain level, some abnormal situations began to appear quietly: there was no one on the originally silent street. Since when did some shadowy black figures begin to appear? Each of them is at least two meters tall. They look like people who have been elongated as a whole. They have slender bodies and slender limbs. Although they walk They were like boneless noodle men, but they were always walking firmly in the direction of the previous screams step by step - they completely ignored Wu Ming and others who were right next to them, as if there was something in front of them that had a huge attraction to them. The same thing as force.
Not only that, as those slender ghosts continued to advance, their number was also increasing out of thin air. Wu Ming witnessed with his own eyes the shadow-like figure struggling to get up from the ground, completing the transformation from a two-dimensional plane to a three-dimensional entity. The strange leap process.
The place where the screams came out was not far from where Wu Ming and the others were. It was in a square in front. Wu Ming and his group arrived at the scene and saw the scene in the square.
A little girl, whose face had turned pale with fright, was sitting in a faintly glowing circle of light, shivering. In the square outside the circle of light was a large group of black noodle-like figures. They surrounded the little girl and were slowly using her hand. The hands beat to block their aperture, and they let out a low and terrifying roar. With each slap, the aperture would shake, and even the light emitted seemed to dim a bit. The little girl was frightened by such a sight. I had to curl up into a ball and dare not move, for fear that if I moved, the aperture would collapse, and then be torn into pieces by the swarming noodle men.
Wu Ming and his party did not rush forward to rescue, but found a corner as a bunker to hide. Of course, Elizabeth was ready to rush forward to save people as soon as she got excited, but was stopped by Wu Ming and Zhao Sida. , because judging from the speed of the aperture shaking and dimming, as well as the frequency of attacks by those noodle people, the little girl who was frightened and crying should not be in danger for a while - at most she would be scared enough.
Now the attention of the noodle people seems to be completely focused on the little girl in the aperture. Wu Ming still doesn't know what the hatred mechanism of these noodle people is, he doesn't know how destructive the noodle people are, and he doesn't know whether Elizabeth can go all the way to rescue the noodle people. Little girl, it’s even less clear that even if they rush in and save the little girl and are attacked by a group of people, they will be able to withstand it. There are too many unknown factors in this. Although Wu Ming has high hopes for the fighting power of Elizabeth and the doll girl. He had great confidence, but he didn't dare to poke such a hornet's nest without knowing anything.
Although they move very slowly, walk crookedly as if they have no bones, and look like they exude the aura of a weakling, what if their backhand slap is powerful enough to turn a person into a meat pie?
People must be saved, not only to save this girl, but also to ensure that they can evacuate safely from here, so they must at least have a basic understanding of the enemy.
Wu Ming decided to consult the doll girl next to him who seemed to be an encyclopedia: "Old Zhao, do you know who the other party is? Do we have any chance of winning?"
"Searching for database information..." Zhao Sida didn't seem to care at all about what Wu Ming called her. She concentrated on searching her database for a moment and then gave a positive answer: "There is a file of similar extraordinary creatures in the database, and the name is... …Shadow Monster.”
"The residents who live in the shallow layer of the Shadow Realm have no fixed body shape. What they will become and why they choose a certain form to appear in front of people are all unknown. Some people in the organization also speculate that some ordinary people have come into contact with They spread their experiences and spread them more and more, and then they became the urban legends circulating in the streets and alleys today..."
"What are the characteristics?"
Zhao Sida pointed at the increasing number of noodle-shaped shadow monsters in the square: "The characteristics and abilities will change according to the form they choose, but they will not change much, and no matter how they change, they will still have entities. , and their combat power is so great that even ordinary people can easily deal with them. Even if the number of shadow monsters in front of her doubles again, Elizabeth should not have much problem handling them, not to mention that she will not be hurt by being attacked by them... …”
Wu Ming looked puzzled: "This is too weak. Isn't this a game that the three of us can win if we rush forward and directly use the unparalleled A face?"
"That's not the case." Zhao Sida shook her head and denied Wu Ming's idea: "They do not have strong physical attack power. Their attacks act on the spirit and emotions. Every contact will quietly take away the opponent's spirit. and emotions, so that the other person's heart is gradually occupied by nothingness and emptiness, and there is no record in the database as to what it will eventually become..."
Wu Ming's hair stood up as he listened, and then he quickly gave up the idea of going to the front line in person. Although Zhao Sida said that Elizabeth had little pressure to deal with such a group of noodle people, he couldn't help but think about what Elizabeth had become like described. state.
Well, in fact, Wu Ming couldn't imagine that Elizabeth, who was almost unable to hold on, was ready for a god to come down to earth and rush out to accomplish the unparalleled feat of killing a thousand people at any time. After her vitality and emotion were sucked away, her eyes were as empty as a living corpse. Like a corpse, he couldn't feel the emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy, but that didn't stop him from thinking that it would be a very terrifying picture.
It's just that Wu Ming still hasn't figured it out yet. Why were they not attacked when they passed in front of the Noodle Man? Instead, the little girl in the circle became their target?
Elizabeth, who had been unable to speak, suddenly said: "Do you think it's because they hate the light source?"
Zhao Sida: "There is no record in the data file whether they are photophobic. Manager Wu Ming, the defense technique used to protect that girl is on the verge of collapse, and we are running out of time."
As Zhao Sida said, the aperture protecting the little girl has begun to become precarious at this moment. The light emitted by the aperture has dimmed from the dim state before to the point where it is almost invisible now. Even ordinary people can see it. The aperture could not last long, and the girl's cries became more desperate and frightened. There was no time left for Wu Ming to verify whether they were photophobic.
"We can't wait any longer, rescue the people first! Elizabeth, you are responsible for the frontal breakthrough and rescue. Don't hold back. Be careful not to be attacked by them. After you rescue the little girl, move immediately and don't fight." She knew that she could no longer fight. Wu Ming, who was delayed, began to calmly assign tasks: "Old Zhao, you attack from the side first, and then Elizabeth attacks from the front. You assist Elizabeth in cleaning up the noodle men, and ensure her retreat when she rushes into the circle of light to save others. …”
"After rescuing people, everyone will quickly return here to gather and retreat along the same route. Do you understand?"
A silly smile appeared on Elizabeth's face: "Brother, since you said not to hold back, then it's okay to deal with these noodle people by the way, right?"
Wu Ming reached out and patted Elizabeth on the head: "Don't go too far. Protect yourself and the little girl as your priority. Oh yes, Lao Zhao's aperture..."
"I have just analyzed the aperture. It is just the most basic defensive technique. It is used to defend and protect attacks with extraordinary power below a certain amount. Moreover, there is very little power stored in it now. Elizabeth can easily break it with her strength. " Zhao Sida replied.
"Lao Zhao Niu Beer!"
Elizabeth tilted her head and looked at Wu Ming and asked: "But brother, if we all rush out to save others and steal the limelight, then what are you doing, brother?"
Wu Ming, who currently only has about 2 people with combat effectiveness, rolled his eyes: "I am responsible for the momentum of our entire team."
"oh……"
"Walk!"
When Zhao Sida and Elizabeth rushed out of the corner and rushed directly towards the pile of noodle people, Wu Ming took a deep breath. His whole temperament changed suddenly, just like when he had tricked Elizabeth into becoming lame. He followed with a slightly ferocious smile on his face. After walking out of the corner, most of the noodles people had gathered in the square, so Wu Ming was sure that he was still in a relatively safe state for the time being. Then he took a deep breath, filled his dantian, and shouted in the direction of the square at the loudest volume in his life. .
"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! It's okay! If you want to ask why, it's because we are here!"
boom! boom!
Just like two cannonballs falling at high speed, under Wu Ming's roar, Zhao Sida and Elizabeth rushed into the group of noodle people in the square at the same time. Suddenly, countless shadow monster noodle people flew around like kites with broken strings. go!
