Chapter 46: A sneak attack in the night
Chen Xin rubbed his eyes, stared at the direction of the town for a long time, but there was no strange light anymore. He asked the two sisters and got the same negative answer. They did not see any strange blue light, which made him wonder again.
Is it his illusion?
Even if he really had visual hallucinations due to fatigue, Chen Xin felt that his intuition would not be wrong. His strange sixth sense just now did feel that something seemed to have happened in the town.
With such concern and hesitation, Chen Xin came to the meeting place of the two sisters. They were each holding weapons and standing there with alertness. They were both nervous and seemed very nervous.
"What's wrong?" Chen Xin asked hurriedly.
"That's great! Chen Xin, you're finally back!" Qin Kejia breathed a sigh of relief as if he was relieved.
"Spider! Many spiders are rushing towards the town!" Qin Kejia's eyes were still filled with fear. Although it was not the first time they saw black spiders along the way, they were just a few.
“How many are there?”
"At least a few hundred! And they don't seem to be interested in us, and they even pass by us directly..." Qin Kexin also nodded frequently and added.
Both sisters were a little scared. Although the black spiders had no intention of attacking them, the scene was enough to make anyone in it worried.
A haze appeared on Chen Xin's face again. Is this directly related to the previous blue light? Those black spiders should have escaped from the stone gate. After killing the giant spider as the leader, the other spiders should become headless, fleeing everywhere, or even killing each other.
But after listening to the descriptions of the two sisters, the black spiders did not act like this. Although they seemed very panicked, they did not seem to be fleeing. More importantly, they actually let go of two living preys that were close at hand. Even if the two sisters have no parasitic value, they can always be used as food, right?
Unless in the cognition of black spiders, there is something more important than parasitism or preying!
"Let's go!" Chen Xin made a decision after a brief thought.
Of course, it wasn't about going to the town. No matter what happened in the town, Chen Xin felt that he could never go there. He didn't even give the two sisters a little rest, so he decisively packed up his things and moved quickly in the opposite direction of the town.
His destination is a commercial street, but judging from the current sky, he would definitely not be able to get there before darkness. Qin Kejia also expressed doubts, but Chen Xin would rather find a place to sleep in the middle of the journey. No, based on his ideas, even going straight to the night road is the best.
They also had flashlights when they left school, but for the sake of saving batteries, they only used in emergency situations, and even so, it was not enough to offset the dangers brought by the night.
But with Chen Xin's insistence, the two sisters could only follow the arrangements. Fortunately, they gradually got used to Chen Xin's arbitrary behavior without any explanation. Moreover, Qin Kejia, who was delicate, also saw Chen Xin's anxiety.
Chen Xin could feel that, whether it was intuition or just so-called speculation, something very amazing seemed to appear in the direction of the town. Although he didn't understand the reason, he had already killed the giant spider as the leader, why did those monsters not disintegrate yet? Is it really a completely different habit from the goblin?
...
Night fell as scheduled, and Chen Xin was not lucky. The cloudy weather also covered the only light source at night and the moon. It was very limited by relying on the halo of the flashlight.
Fortunately, it was probably because all the black spiders gathered in the direction of the town, and they did not encounter any attacks halfway through, and no one else would choose to rush to the road at night.
In the quiet night, only three people were left with the hurried footsteps and breathing.
Although all three of them were exhausted, Chen Xin still refused to stop and even accelerated his pace in the urging. He wanted to stay away from that town as soon as possible, the farther away the better!
In the middle of the night, they came to a nearby stream and heard the breathing of the two sisters getting faster and faster. Chen Xin estimated his physical fitness and then called for a stop to rest. He was actually very tired. After coming out of the stone gate, Chen Xin had not had a moment of rest!
After rushing for several hours, the town had completely disappeared from sight, but before Chen Xin could feel relieved, a slight rustling footsteps suddenly came. Although it was very light, it was particularly eye-catching in this quiet night.
"Who is it?" Chen Xin asked in a low voice.
"No, it's not us!" The two sisters answered hurriedly. After getting the rest permission, they had already sat down and had no strength to get up.
Chen Xin decisively pulled out the short knife. Just as he was about to get up, his sixth sense suddenly arose again. He almost subconsciously squatted down his body and rolled to the side. At the same time, he raised his head slightly and pointed the flashlight forward.
A blue cold light shone through the night. Although Chen Xin subconsciously avoided the light and successfully avoided the light, the other party's reaction speed was also faster than imagined. The blue light suddenly changed direction and slashed towards Chen Xin. Chen Xin directly threw the flashlight at the place where the other party was, holding the short knife in his back hand blocked it in mid-air.
The other party's speed was too fast, but fortunately, Chen Xin absorbed the power of dozens of black spiders in the afternoon, so that he could barely keep up with the other party's reaction.
clang!
The sound of metal and iron collisions mixed with a splash of sparks made Chen Xin a little stunned, which meant that the other party was obviously holding a weapon, but this was a bit weird.
It is absolutely impossible for those black spider monsters to use weapons, their bodies are the best weapon, which means that the suspicious attacker in the dark is not a monster, but a human!
"Who is it!"
Chen Xin shouted, his flashlight had been broken in the air. Although the two sisters next to him were scared, they still knew to raise the flashlight while trembling. However, their reaction was much worse. The light could not keep up with the other party's movement speed, but they could vaguely shine a rough outline.
This is a very strange figure. It looks like walking and running upright like a human, but it has eight spider-like hands and feet. It can't see clearly, but you can hear the whimper when it inhales, and there is a sticky liquid flowing in its mouth.
