"Aha……"
Ji Chunzao sighed softly, hugged his knees with both hands, and tried to curl up his body, as if hiding in a small cocoon.
She held her other slender arm in one hand and realized she was shaking.
This is what she does subconsciously when she feels uneasy: she stays in a world of isolation, like a scared child wrapping herself in a quilt.
However, she is no longer alone. After only a few months, she had almost forgotten those frustrating moments.
But at this moment, Ji Chunzao couldn't help but retreat back to his original weak self, feeling empty in his heart.
Because...she found that her eyes were blind.
The little girl tried to open her eyes wide, but she could only see vague outlines of things, which made her feel flustered.
She didn't expect that the result of overusing her powers would be like this.
Although Ji Chunzao has the innate talent of sensing and contacting alien creatures, she has never tried hard to hone it. It was mainly because of her scruples. Not to mention her daily exercise, she could only muster up the courage to decide to use it because of Yan Jingxing's blessing.
Only in the brief ten minutes just now, when she heard the fierce gunshots coming from the warehouse, and when she realized that the situation of the three of them might be so critical that she had to reverse it by herself, did Ji Chunzao get close to her for the first time. This gift was used oppressively.
Even if one's power increases after becoming a priest, the probability of contacting and summoning specific alien creatures that can subvert the situation in a short period of time is very low——
But Ji Chunzao still managed to catch the "rope" falling from the sky, and the target was still very familiar to him.
Ji Chunzao has met the Predator King twice, a giant alien creature known as the "Overlord"; it seems to have been wandering in a certain area. She successfully contacted the other party and received a response again.
However, in order for it to appear at a specific location, the radio waves sent by Ji Spring Algae need to be more precise.
Just because she felt that she was just a little short, she worked harder, but accidentally overused it, as if all the blood flowed back into her eyeballs in one breath, and she had a splitting headache for a while.
Ji Chunzao has never been very optimistic about her. She feels that she is not brave or strong at all, especially compared with the two friends around her who are a little precocious. She is very afraid of pain, so Faced with this situation, the little girl's first reaction was to burst into tears.
Even so, she finally gritted her teeth and persevered, letting the hazy tears slide down her face.
At the moment of success, Ji Chunzao fell back in exhaustion, and then realized that there was a problem with his vision.
Could it be that... I'm just blind like this?
Fortunately, her worries did not come true: the blur covering a large area in her field of vision quickly faded little by little.
At this moment, the eyeball that symbolizes "sacrifice" embedded in the socket of the girl's right eye is as bright as a ruby. This is of course not bloodshot - it is flowing with a strange and bright light.
However, the girl was huddled alone in a corner where no one was paying attention. The flickering light in her pupils faded little by little, and even she herself did not notice the abnormality.
Ji Chunzao blinked his big moist eyes, his wet eyelashes fluttering, and suddenly saw a familiar figure not far away.
"Yuzhi..."
Xie Yuzhi held her arms and limped closer.
"How did you get yourself into this?"
When she saw her kneeling on the ground with tears in her eyes, she frowned and asked.
When Ji Chunzao saw her appearance, her whole body was covered with dirty dust, and she was so embarrassed that she couldn't help but reply:
"You...you still talk about me, don't you yourself..."
Xie Yuzhi sighed and sat down next to her.
"Yes, I have already tried my best. I might faint in the next second."
As she spoke, her eyes began to slowly close. After realizing this, Miss Xie pinched her arm hard without hesitation. The girl's fragile and fragile skin obviously couldn't bear the force, and a group of bruises immediately appeared.
This rough action startled Ji Chunzao.
"A-are you okay...?"
"I'm fine... I'm just trying to wake myself up."
Xie Yuzhi yawned deeply and uncontrollably.
The girls sat side by side, sitting on the ground and looking at the night in silence, listening to the disturbing noise hidden in the wind. Ji Chunzao couldn't bear it for long and asked the question that concerned her most at the moment:
"Where is Jing Xing? How is Jing Xing?"
"I don't know." The eldest lady shook her head, "...I'm very worried about him now, and there is a more serious problem that I can't help him with. I can only sit here and watch..."
"Boom!"
A loud noise interrupted their conversation.
Above the warehouse, in a darkness deeper than night, a bottomless cave was slowly blooming, with shadow-like tentacles nearly a hundred meters long hanging down from it.
What followed was a terrifying attraction. The ceiling of the warehouse and the reinforced concrete building structure gradually collapsed, and the soil covering the ground disintegrated layer by layer... Everything visible to the naked eye was destroyed, decomposed into debris, and slowly floated into the sky. .
"What, what should I do?"
Ji Chunzao suddenly panicked.
“If Jing Xing is still inside—”
"No, if it's Jing Xing, he must have a way to escape. You did the right thing, creating as much chaos as possible to give him a chance to escape."
Xie Yuzhi comforted.
"As soon as he comes out, we will leave here immediately."
…
However, until the warehouse and nearby roads and forests were all razed to the ground, and the tentacles were retracted into the hole again; until the rescue personnel and vehicles arrived, they could not wait for the boy's figure to appear...

After landing, Wu Zhifei turned around and saw that the warehouse was gradually turning into ruins; at the same time, his ears moved slightly, and his hearing, which was dozens of times stronger than that of ordinary people, allowed the man to quickly capture the sound coming from the road several kilometers away. sound.
He heard sirens.
"Is this the police here?"
Wu Zhifei smacked his lips.
He took out his mobile phone from his trousers that were torn by the bulging muscles. Compared with his thick palm, ordinary electronic devices were too small, so he picked it up with the tips of his two fingers.
"Hey, can you hear me? You bastard."
He questioned the person on the other end of the phone without any politeness.
"The 'Overlord' actually appeared in a place like this, what happened?...What did you say? Lucky?"
"Yes, it can only be explained by 'luck'. Unless..." The person on the other side of the phone quickly changed the subject mid-sentence, "No, it should be accidental."
"Are you trying to say that the reason things got messed up was because of my bad luck?"
"Haha, isn't this a good thing? It's a rare experience to see them on earth." The person on the other side smiled and replied, "In addition, support is already on the way. The place you are in is a small town that no one pays attention to. , in these thirty minutes, the enemies you have to face are just the local police. Don’t say you are afraid?"
After Wu Zhifei hung up the phone, he noticed the flashing car lights on the road not far away.
The beast-like face was gradually covered by manic and distorted emotions.
"Forget it, now that things have happened, there is no need to hide it anymore. Just in time, I also want to find someone to vent my anger..."
…
"How is it going?"
"Ten minutes ago, we received a report that someone heard gunshots while passing by on the roadside..."
"It's really a fire fight."
The old policeman's fingers tapped on the steering wheel, his expression unmistakable.
"It's a little difficult."
"We are here to take the lead. Let's investigate the matter clearly first."
Five police cars with sirens honking slowly stopped at the junction of the forest and the road.
"The intersection is blocked."
"Move things out of the way first."
In the process of moving the roadblock away, the expressions of everyone in the criminal police team involuntarily became serious. They smelled the smell of blood, gunpowder smoke and burning coming from the distance.
After getting back into the car, the driver subconsciously moved his stiff neck and wrists, and the driver began to check his gun.
People already have a premonition that the next step may be the most dangerous moment in their police careers.
But even though he was mentally prepared, what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations——
"boom!"
A huge thing fell from the sky and landed on the road. The driver of the police car at the front subconsciously stepped on the brakes.
"Click——"
With a harsh sound of metal friction, a thick arm covered with thick hair penetrated the hood, and the "uninvited guest" blocked the sliding vehicle with one arm.
"This, this is...?!"
"What the hell?!"
At that time, there was a monster with a ferocious face like a standing bear.
…
The monster looked at the people sitting in the car and immediately showed incredible panic after seeing what it looked like. It grinned proudly, revealing its snow-white fangs.
"Want a fight? At least send some decent heavy weapons and armored vehicles over here!"
It roared, then waved its arms, lifted the entire car high, and threw it towards the guardrail next to it.
"boom!"
The police car smashed through the guardrail and slid down the slope. The hood was smashed, and fragments of the window glass were scattered on the ground. The tires were still spinning, and the people inside didn't know whether they were alive or dead.
Several police cars following behind stopped immediately, "Bang bang bang!" After rolling down the windows, more than a dozen pistols fired at the monster standing on the road at the same time.
This humanoid beast puffed out its chest and refused to dodge. Bullets seemed completely ineffective against it in this form.
Wu Zhifei's posture after his transformation lost his human sanity and became more animalistic. He stood in the middle of the road, howling into the night sky, arrogant and arrogant.
*
"Click."
The safe was eventually opened.
Trembling fingers slipped from the cabinet door, leaving a trail of blood.
Half of the boy's body was smashed, and there was no way he could survive. But the willpower that a person bursts out at the last moment of life is often extremely astonishing. Coupled with the remaining "superpower" blessing... he dragged the remaining half of his body and crawled to the safe.
After fulfilling his last wish, he stopped breathing completely.
A huge attraction is being born in the void above the warehouse. The safe begins to float, and the items inside follow gravity and roll into a pool of blood.
——That is an... "egg".
The overall shape is oval, twenty times the size of an ordinary ostrich egg. The case is light white, and it is vaguely covered with mysterious lines.
After coming into contact with the thick plasma, the eggshell began to emit a faint light, cracks crawled along the lines, and the smooth "shell" bloomed like a gathered bud.
The vortex-like gravitational force above became increasingly powerful, and the surrounding environment - whether it was building structures or goods stacked in the warehouse, was floating against the gravity.
Including the blooming dome, the flowing pool of blood, the boy's half-remaining body... everything was gathering into a ball and being quietly sucked up into the sky.
Sorry, I've been out of action for a few days. Now alive. I have sorted out the outline in the past few days, and will continue to update it daily in the future.
