"You mean, here, in the city where I live, there is a monster in the real world?" Although Zhang Heng is very calm and has been exposed to supernatural phenomena in recent months, he still feels a little uncomfortable when hearing this statement. incredible.
"Well... the details are not quite accurate, but that's what it means." The old man took out another pack of Wangzi gummy candies from his pocket, and his mouth seemed to be completely occupied. "But don't worry, you will lose it." It has become weaker than ever after receiving the worship of the Alkoz people. In my heyday, dealing with such low-grade goods was just a matter of snapping my fingers."
"what about now?"
"Now...didn't I just find a helper?"
"...It sounds really reassuring." Zhang Heng followed the instructions of the old man in Tang suit and drove the Audi A6 onto another street.
"Relax. Although my strength has also weakened a lot, there are two of us, and there is only one of us. We have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers." The old man in Tang suit encouraged, and at the same time he quickly finished the food in his hand. Gummies, with the way he was eating them, Zhang Heng doubted whether he would suffer from diabetes.
"I still don't understand why a monster from Papua New Guinea traveled thousands of miles to come here?"
"All its original believers, the Alkoz people, are dead. To explain it in today's more popular economic terms, although it has escaped from the prison of time, the market in Papua New Guinea has now been carved up. It couldn’t survive there, and if it wanted to regain its strength, it had to find new believers, so it had no choice but to leave its hometown and follow a Chinese couple here.”
"I met it at Shanghai's Hongqiao Airport. This idiot has been locked up for too long and is out of touch with society. It may think there are too many people there and wants to try its luck, but 99% of people who go to the airport don't know how to do it. It was okay to stay there, and it was okay to fool the natives who were 20,000 years old with its set of things, but it is already outdated now. After staying there for half a month, it deceived two old women who were doing cleaning work, and one of them left himself alone. I sacrificed my time to it, and another one was hesitating, and then it saw me and started running away.”
The old man moved his buttocks and changed to a more comfortable sitting position, "I have been dealing with this matter since the last time we met. I have been chasing it for almost two months. With your help tonight, I should be able to do it. Solve this trouble, otherwise this guy will find you sooner or later."
"Why?"
"Because the [temporal anomaly] in you has a fatal attraction to it, and because you are my agent. After these two months of friendly relations, I am sure that that thing wants to take revenge on me." The old man. Then he said, "Please turn left at the intersection ahead, take the service road, and don't get on the elevated road."
Zhang Heng was silent. He was quickly digesting the words of the old man in Tang suit. After a moment, he said, "Did the world start to become crazy after you found me, or was it already so crazy?"
The latter showed a meaningful smile, "You are a smart person and you immediately realized the problem. As long as you play the game, you will get the answer soon. Some things are difficult to truly understand without seeing it with your own eyes. To believe it... I parked in front and I could feel it was close by."
Zhang Heng stepped on the brakes, and the Audi A6 slowly stopped in a small tunnel.
This tunnel is 8 kilometers long and is located in the center of the city. It is considered to be fully enclosed in order not to cause noise pollution to the surroundings. At this time, there are not many vehicles in the tunnel. Zhang Heng has not seen anything suspicious for the time being. When he wanted to ask, the old man put a finger to his lips.
Zhang Heng turned off the engine, and the world became completely quiet. About half a minute later, a patter of footsteps came from the top of the tunnel, coming closer from a distance, but stopped abruptly when they were about to arrive.
Five minutes passed like this. The two people in the car were able to keep their composure and didn't say a word. Just when Zhang Heng thought that the thing had disappeared, the roof of the car was suddenly hit by a heavy object. Zhang Heng Two footprints appeared on the steel plate above his head.
The next moment a strange face poked its head out of the windshield.
It was something that looked like a monkey, but its eyes were extremely large, taking up about one-third of the entire face. Unlike monkeys, it had no hair on its face, only wrinkles like those of an old man.
Zhang Heng saw greed in those yellow pupils, but when the thing saw the other person in the back seat, its expression changed, and it turned around and ran deeper into the tunnel.
"Follow it!" The old man in Tang suit finally said.
Without enough time to ask, Zhang Heng started the engine again and stepped on the accelerator. The sitting steel beast let out a roar and sped forward.
Zhang Heng turned on the high beam, and under the car lights, the monster named Moresby jumped and ran on the tunnel wall. It moved very fast, and it seemed that it completely ignored gravity.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhang Heng would not have believed that there was such a creature in the world. He finally understood why the old man in Tang suit had been chasing this thing for almost two months without getting any results.
With his current level 2 car driving skills, he can barely follow the opponent. This is because it takes up the light of the tunnel. Once he leaves this kind of confined space with only two directions, with this guy's agility, he can easily find a building to go to. Once inside, even if his driving skills were ten times better, he would never be able to keep up.
Fortunately, at this time, the old man in Tang suit sitting behind finally made a move. He opened the broken travel bag that he had been holding in his arms, took out several pieces of rusty ironware from it, and assembled them in a certain order. Together, they become a rusty spear.
From the appearance alone, it doesn't look like a weapon, but more like a newly unearthed cultural relic.
"I borrowed this thing from a friend for temporary use." The old man in Tang suit explained. He held the long gun, opened the skylight, and stood up from his seat.
He was obviously not tall, but at this moment he gave people the illusion of being extremely majestic, as if he was integrated with the heaven and earth.
Zhang Heng tried his best to control the Audi A6 to drive smoothly and reduce shaking. However, the old man in Tang suit did not make any aiming action at all and just threw the spear casually.
And as soon as the spear was released, a flash of light pierced the sky! Like a ball of lightning.
The monster named Moresby seemed to be aware of the danger, increased its speed again, and began to jump crazily in the tunnel, but no matter how it avoided it, the spear remained firmly attached as if it was equipped with a guidance system. Locking its body.
In the end, it could only push its speed to the limit and was about to escape from the tunnel. However, the next moment, the spear penetrated its back and pierced its chest.
As if he suddenly lost all his strength, Moresby fell from the air and fell on the asphalt road at the entrance of the tunnel.
