Chapter 217 Crying and Shouting
Chapter 217 Crying and Shouting
Gong Jingming's heart skipped a beat; his intuition told him that something was about to happen, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
"Will it break free?" Miao Yin's voice was unexpectedly gentle.
Gong Jingming glanced at the bottle tree: "Generally speaking, no, unless it's very powerful."
"That's good. Take it and come with me."
After saying that, Miao Yin pulled him away from the water hut, her steps as quick as if she couldn't wait to attend some banquet.
With the waning moon hanging high in the sky, they left the small manor in the dead of night, when no one knew them.
Outside the small manor, the mountain path had become tangled and overgrown due to neglect. After walking some distance, Miao Yin suddenly stopped and called out, "Lady White Snake."
The white snake, which had been waiting for a long time, swam down from the tree, its snow-white scales reflecting the delicate yet pale moonlight.
Was that white snake there too?
Gong Jingming suppressed his doubts.
Bai Suzhen's body grew larger inch by inch. Her body, which had been repaired after being seriously injured, looked no different from before. In fact, it became even larger because it had devoured enough corpses.
It's like a snow-white Milky Way lying across the ground, pressing out deep ravines.
Miao Yin flipped over and straddled its snake body, her red dress standing out vividly against the white scales like an expensive piece of pigeon blood.
"Come on." She gestured behind her, inviting Gong Jingming to sit down.
Gong Jingming: "..."
He sat on the white snake somewhat stiffly, the icy temperature seeping into his palms.
"Sit still," Miao Yin said.
The enormous white snake began to move, covering more than ten meters in just a few seconds. It was faster than a car, and its swaying tail smashed all the branches and rocks that blocked the road.
Gong Jingming instinctively gripped the snake scales beneath him to avoid being thrown off at such speed. The dry yet warm summer night wind blew in, and he saw a red dress and black hair fluttering like water sleeves in front of him.
They descended from the mountain, crossed roads and meadows, and arrived at the edge of the city in just ten minutes.
The white snake slowed down and stopped next to a residential building.
Miao Yin jumped off the white snake, and Bai Niangzi turned her head at the right moment and affectionately nuzzled her.
"Well done, Lady White Snake." Miao Yin patted its head.
"Hiss."
Gong Jingming followed her down from upstairs, first cautiously looking around before asking, "Why did you bring me here?"
"Let's do a small experiment."
Miao Yin smoothed her wind-blown hair and said, "This place is quite a distance from the city center, and the number of mutants is not as large as over there, but if you are alone, it will be difficult for you to leave alive."
"What do you mean?"
"Release my Spider-Man."
Gong Jingming: "..."
His gaze held a hint of questioning. After a moment of silence, he finally conceded and released the bottle tree.
The crack opened, and Miao Yin reached out and dug the Spider-Man out, grabbed him by the neck, randomly picked a car by the roadside, and stood on it.
"Lady White Snake, change back to your original form first. They might not dare to come if you stay here."
"Hiss."
Bai Niangzi agreed and quickly shrunk her body into a one-meter-long snake. The terrifying aura unique to giant creatures also subsided, and she looked harmless.
The road was now empty, leaving only the ruts carved out by the giant object.
Miao Yin dragged the little Spider-Man, who was pretending to be dead, in front of her and said in a vicious tone, "If you keep pretending, I'll burn you to death."
Upon hearing this, the little Spider-Man immediately opened its compound eyes, its timid gaze concealing fear and resentment.
Miao Yin grabbed its neck, making it face outwards, and scorching flames rose from mid-air, instantly scorching its spider legs.
Unlike a wound that can heal after being cut with a knife, the part destroyed by the fire has its strength permanently diminished, causing excruciating pain.
Miao Yin commanded, "Cry."
“Wa ...
Spider-Man let out the sharpest scream ever, shrieking in the flames as all his spider legs curled up from the intense heat.
A loud cry shattered the silence, and the windows of the residential buildings shattered.
Gong Jingming immediately covered his ears, but even so, he was still momentarily dazed by the loud noise, and a ringing sound like weightlessness echoed in his mind.
The peculiar call carried power, spreading out in concentric circles, creating ripples, and causing countless dark creatures to light up.
'Mommy—Mommy—!!'
The next second, they took off running, passing through tall buildings, crossing abandoned roads, pushing against walls, and even disturbing the sewers. Everywhere, there were darting black shadows, chasing each other in layers, coming from all directions in search of their calls.
Cars were overturned, trees were smashed, and countless monsters tumbled and crawled towards the scene, causing the earth to tremble.
Rumbling--
The houses groaned in despair, and dust billowed down.
A mutated human, about ten meters tall, crushed the load-bearing pillars and walls, climbing out from inside, its long, gecko-like tongue sticking out.
"Ughh ...
Spider-Man was still screaming madly, like a cuckoo crying blood.
Gong Jingming: !!!
His pupils contracted to a single point; the immense pressure from the large, mutated human caused his adrenaline to surge to its peak in an instant, and his heart pounded like a drum.
The skyscraper collapsed with a deafening roar! Concrete rained down on them, and behind it lay a gigantic, mutated monster!
In a life-or-death situation, Gong Jingming activated his supernatural abilities, summoning almost every plant that could be of use.
The area was densely covered with Hundred-Life Willow and Vampire Vines, forming a defensive posture.
But nothing could compare to the speed at which the cement block came crashing down.
Just then, a huge cloud of fire rose up behind Miao Yin.
"Gong Jingming".
Beneath the raging flames, a woman with black hair and a red dress boldly declared:
"Watch closely, true defense is slaughter!"
The black and red behemoth opened its blood-red maw, and all the bricks that had been smashed down vanished in an instant.
The flames rose up like an unrestrained demon, greedily swallowing the entire mutated man without a single desperate cry, along with Gong Jingming's plants, which vanished in the flames.
At that moment, all Gong Jingming saw was an overwhelming expanse of red.
The raging fire engulfed everything around it, just like back in the zoo. Except for the car that Miao Yin was standing on and Gong Jingming, the surrounding area was cleared out, leaving only the melted asphalt road emitting a strong chemical smell.
Seeing this, Gong Jingming immediately grabbed the handrail and got into the car, thus avoiding the fate of having his shoe soles melted.
Only after he boarded the train did he finally see the scene that Miao Yin had seen.
Countless deformed monsters rushed towards this place, stepping on the hot asphalt road. Their lower limbs melted from the still-hot temperature, and they fell to the ground.
The mutated humans behind them kept trampling on them and running towards them. The mutated humans below were crushed into puddles of mud under the pressure and high temperature, sticking to the road.
They screamed and roared, saliva and blood flying everywhere, like a black wave crashing onto the shore belonging to Miaoyin by the strong wind.
She stood there on the high place, holding the offerings that attracted the monsters, laughing amidst their mournful cries, until the monsters surrounded them.
This scene is known to humans as the Kuroshio Current.
