"Tentacles?" Lumian was stunned for a second before he remembered how to define the thing that bound that mass of flesh and blood.
He is familiar with all kinds of novels written by Aurora, and has seen all the illustrations. He not only remembers every **** plot, but also knows many things that he can't touch normally, such as monster tentacles.
Seven or eight dark black flesh-coated tentacles entangled the mass of flesh and blood, dragging it to the ruins of the house on the side.
A figure came out from the place covered by the messy stones.
"He" looks like a human being, with his upper body and feet bare, and a pair of black trousers.
Unlike humans, he has no head, only a section of neck, the cross-section is full of sharp teeth in a swirl shape, and the bright red skin is clearly visible in the gaps between the teeth.
It was as if a certain human had replaced his head and half of his neck with strange mouthparts. The "beheading expert" Lumian shook his head repeatedly, unable to find a place to start.
The seven or eight deep black tentacles covered with fleshy membranes extended from the edge of the monster's "mouthparts". They quickly dragged the mass of flesh and blood to the front of the body, and lifted it up.
The "mouthparts" on the monster's neck opened at once, like a blooming morning glory.
Those sharp white teeth bit the mass of flesh and blood, swallowing it directly like a snake eating its prey.
Seeing this scene, Lumian sneered silently:
"I thought you all could survive without eating, but you still need to eat..."
He then fell into deep thought:
"The most monsters in this ruins should be monsters, and there must be very few things that can be eaten...
"In other words, some monsters feed on other monsters, just like just now, or, everyone is a hunter and a prey...
"If I encounter a monster that I can't beat, is it possible to lure it to other monsters, let them hunt each other, hurt each other, and I will end up taking advantage of it?
"It's theoretically possible, but it looks very dangerous. Who knows if the monsters will join hands to kill me first..."
While thinking about it, Lumian saw that the chest of the monster with "mouthparts" as its head and neck began to swell and contract, as if it was undergoing violent digestion.
This attracted Lumian's attention, and made him discover that there was something unusual about the monster's naked upper body.
It has a black thing resembling a seal mark on the left chest, right chest and under the neck.
"This..." Lumian's pupils dilated unconsciously, trying to see more clearly.
He had seen something like it in the parish priest!
That was the black mark that was exposed after the priest's body swelled and tore through his clothes at the end of the Lent celebration!
After careful identification, Lumian confirmed that the three seal-like black things on the monster's body belonged to the same category as the priest's:
They are all composed of unique characters and strange symbols, as if they are connected to another world that is difficult to describe.
The difference is that the curate has at least eleven or twelve, while this monster only has three.
"What is the function of this black mark? A mark branded by a hidden existence? The more the number, the greater the gift you receive?" Lumian observed in confusion and at a loss.
He tried hard to memorize the words and symbols that made up one of the imprints, but since these were things he didn't know, he couldn't remember them for a while, and he didn't bring paper and pen, so he couldn't copy them.
The monster finally finished digesting the mass of flesh and blood. It moved its lower arm, and shook the seven or eight dark black tentacles covered with flesh membrane next to the "mouthparts".
The imprint under its neck shone slightly, and the chest cavity resonated hummingly.
The sound became louder and louder, as if a stream of air was raging in the hive, entering and exiting one cavity after another.
The trumpet-like "mouthparts" opened up, and the buzzing sound became more and more obvious.
Lumian was very annoyed when he heard that, wishing he could beat that monster up:
It's hard to hear, you know that?
In the turmoil of anger and blood, Lumian only felt a surge of anger from his heart to his forehead.
He suddenly became impulsive, holding a shotgun, bypassing the stones that obscured his figure, and jumped from the half-collapsed roof.
boom!
Lumian fell to the ground, looking at me and looking at you with the monster's swirling **** "mouthparts" full of sharp teeth.
Lumian, who was about to scold the other party for being an old pig, regained his composure in an instant, feeling dazed and helpless as if the audience were forced to jump onto the stage.
The monster's blood-colored mouthparts were aimed at him, and it stopped making any sound.
"Can I say, sorry, is it a misunderstanding?" Lumian muttered softly.
He suspected that there was something wrong with the noise just now, so he lost his mind, jumped out of the hiding place, and tried to launch an attack!
But things have already happened, and an apology is definitely useless. He has only two choices at present, one is to fight, and the other is to escape.
According to Lumian's experience, there is a high probability that if you want to escape directly at this time, you will not be able to escape. Not only is the opponent unharmed, but he is also ready to raise the seven or eight tentacles.
Therefore, if you really want to escape, you have to fight a battle first, and then talk when you find a chance!
Without hesitation, as soon as Lumian regained his senses, he raised the shotgun in his hand that had already been filled with lead bullets.
boom!
The monster obviously didn't expect the enemy to be so decisive and fast, and he didn't understand the existence of the shotgun, so he didn't have time to dodge, and was directly bombarded by the bursting lead.
"ah!"
His swirling mouthparts full of sharp teeth opened instinctively, and he let out a cry full of pain. Many places on his chest instantly became bloody, including the place where the black mark on the right was.
But the black imprint seemed to be engraved in the blood and flesh, and it was still clearly visible, not much affected by the state of the wound.
Lumian didn't care to appreciate the screams of the prey, and immediately shifted his position after firing the gun, and reached out to take out new lead bullets from the cloth pocket at his waist.
Just as he aimed again, the black mark on the monster's left chest glowed slightly.
The humanoid creature with its head and half of its neck turned into a huge "mouthparts" then disappeared.
It just lost its trace in front of Lumian!
Ran? Stealth? Lumian sought answers from various novels written by Aurora and the mystic knowledge she taught.
He hurriedly glanced left and right, but the monster seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
This unprecedented scene and difficulty made Lumian panic for a moment, wanting to take the opportunity to get out of here, subconsciously took a few steps back.
Suddenly, his ankles tightened, and he suddenly lost his balance and was turned upside down.
The dark black tentacles covered with meat membrane emerged in the air, they were wrapping around Lumian's legs, lifting him into the air.
The monster also appeared, and it was not far from Lumian's side.
At this time, the black mark on its right chest was shining brightly, and the swirl-shaped "mouthparts" full of white sharp teeth opened to the limit, revealing the **** inside, as if it wanted to swallow Lumian with the help of its tentacles.
An indescribable stench erupted from the "mouthparts", making Lumian, who was hanging upside down in the air, dizzy.
And what caught his eyes was the blood-colored mouth skin and countless white sharp teeth.
With a thought in his heart, he aimed the shotgun at the monster's "mouthparts" in a hanging state before a tentacle wrapped around his arm.
boom!
The monster screamed again, and the "mouthparts" were filled with flesh and blood, with lead black everywhere.
It threw Lumian out violently, his body quickly became transparent, and disappeared again.
Lumian fell to the ground with a thump, and did a few rolls before standing up again, concentrating on finding the target.
The next second, he twitched his nose, only to feel that a **** smell was quickly approaching him.
Without caring about what this meant, he rushed out, heading in the opposite direction.
Where he was originally standing, dark black tentacles covered with fleshy membranes drilled out of the air, but they didn't get entangled with anything.
Three or four meters away from them, the monster appeared, with its swirl-shaped "mouthparts" wide open, as if it was waiting for food.
Lumian quickly loaded the shotgun with buckshot, but the black mark on the monster's left chest lit up and disappeared from his sight again.
Stealth, indeed stealth! Lumian made a judgment instantly.
And combined with the encounter just now, he believed that this kind of invisibility could not cover up the smell, and it would fail once it entered the attack state.
After thinking about it, Lumian was sure, and laughed secretly:
"What kind of invisibility can't hide the smell?"
Capturing all kinds of traces is the strong point of "Hunter".
No longer flustered by the encounter, Lumian, who gained a lot of confidence, calmed down, and looked around while walking.
Soon, he saw the footprints left by the monster, and smelled the **** smell and original stink from it.
Relying on these traces, he avoided the monster's attack again and again, and hit the opponent with a shotgun again and again.
But the monster didn't seem to have any serious problems, and after being shot many times, it was only a lot weaker.
Seeing that the lead bullets were about to run out, Lumian's thoughts turned and he thought about what to do.
In just a few seconds, he had the answer:
On the way here, he did not forget to observe the environment, and found several natural traps that could be used, and one of them was suitable for dealing with the current monster.
Seeing two shallow footprints suddenly appearing not far away, Lumian turned around and ran wildly.
The dark black tentacles covered with meat film fell through the air again.
Lumian ran and stopped from time to time, and sometimes looked back to observe, in order to prevent the monster from giving up chasing, and based on this, he dodged the attack in advance.
Buzz buzz!
The "noise" from the monster's chest reached Lumian's ears again, making him annoyed for a while, and his anger became extremely strong. He wanted to stop running away immediately, and turned around to give the guy a few axes.
Fortunately, he remembered that the purpose of his running wildly was to kill that guy. It was not a real escape at the moment. Anger and annoyance failed to change his plan, but only made him more mobile.
Thumb up!
Lumian finally saw the half-collapsed building.
He rushed right in, came to the edge on the other side, and stopped there, pretending to be in ambush.
Not long after, shallow footprints emerged in the half-collapsed house, and the stench and **** smell got closer and closer to Lumian.
Lumian estimated the distance of the tentacles, took two steps back, raised the ax he had drawn out earlier, and chopped it on a stone pillar that was about to crack.
Immediately afterwards, he kicked the stone pillar hard and rolled backwards.
The half-collapsed house, which was already in a fragile balance, could no longer support it and collapsed.
Crash, a large number of heavy stones fell, completely filling the internal space that could have been passed through by people.
The monster that was hiding there and ready to go out suddenly let out a fierce scream.
Its screams lasted less than a second before stopping abruptly.
