Chapter 14 Attacked
Chapter 14: Attacked ()
Xue Tong sat quietly, closing his eyes and experiencing this strange feeling.
He wasn't surprised. In fact, since he was parasitized by "it" in his body, there were very few things in this world that surprised him. So when the gloves really merged with him, he didn't react at all. He was just calm.
Watch this process.
Time passed little by little, and Xue Tong could feel those tiny tentacles invading his own blood vessels, his own bones, and even his own veins. There was no pain, only a faint itching and smoothness. There was even some slight pleasure.
With his eyes closed, he seemed to be able to see the process of those tiny tentacles fusing in his arm. Countless tiny, hair-like tentacles wandered around his arm, invading every inch of human tissue that could be invaded.
If he opens his eyes now, he will definitely find that the appearance of the gloves has completely changed. It is no longer that inconspicuous appearance. Instead, it has become extremely delicate and delicate. The horny shell that was originally invulnerable to even a knife has quickly softened.
, and reshaped the appearance according to the shape of Xue Tong's hand. In the joints of the joints, countless muscle tissues were squirming rapidly, mixed with those tiny tentacles entering Xue Tong's skin. At the same time, things were also happening on the outside of the gloves.
An earth-shaking change, the horny armor covers every inch of skin that needs protection, and even every finger is completely covered. The horniness on the fingertips is slightly raised, forming a hook like a sharp claw. On the arm guard, two
Long and narrow sharp protrusions were formed on the horny armor. They stretched diagonally upwards, eventually forming two sharp blades on the edges of the elbows. Inside the gloves, the originally shriveled membrane-like lining also melted away.
It turned into a slippery liquid and blended into Xue Tong's arm. With this process, Xue Tong suddenly felt that the glove had become a part of his body and developed some functions for him.
This process lasted for more than half an hour. During this time, Xue Tong remained motionless. He carefully felt the changes that these gloves had brought to him. It was not until the familiar throbbing came from his body that he
Slowly open your eyes and tentatively spit out a syllable.
"blade!"
With a sound of "Clang!", the blades on the outside of his elbows suddenly extended and stabbed into the outer wall of the steel carriage. Xue Tong moved slightly, and the lengthened blade immediately followed his movement on the outer wall of the carriage.
A long gap was created. There was no hesitation in the process, as if the outer steel wall was as soft as tofu.
A hint of surprise flashed in Xue Tong's eyes. With a thought, the two blades retracted with a swish. Once again, they turned into two decorative appearances. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, I'm afraid no one would believe that it was these two blades.
The decorative blade just stretched out to a length of more than half a meter and pierced the carriage.
Xue Tong observed the two protrusions for a while, then spoke in a low voice, "Claws!"
Silently, a faint blue light suddenly emitted from the tips of his five fingers. Xue Tong raised his hand to his eyes and observed it carefully for a while. He gave up the idea of continuing to try.
I just tested an arm blade and left such a big wound in this room. If Sarah sees it, she will get angry with him. Xue Tong is very grateful to Sarah, but he doesn't want this kind little girl to get into any trouble.
.
According to the information he sensed, this pair of gloves only has these two abilities. The extended arm blade is the best in melee combat, and the claws are powerful weapons for surprise attacks. Although the power has not been tested, Xue Tong definitely believes that it is not the case.
Ordinary weapons can be compared. The most important thing is that Xue Tong can now be sure that these gloves are definitely not ordinary hunter weapons. They should be part of a certain armor. Because only the strongest weapons left by previous civilizations can
It would burst out with such exaggerated power. The armor in my dream should be the complete form of this armor.
It's just that he couldn't understand that the reason why the armor is powerful is that it is a whole in itself, with complete power, combat, protection, and functional modules. These modules complement each other and must be combined to be effective. Especially
Power, without the power source, the armor is like a piece of scrap metal. It is impossible to fight.
But the part he got was different. Not only did it not require a power source, it could also be directly integrated into his body. This made him feel strange. Moreover, he also thought that if the gloves were part of a certain piece of armor, then the "it" inside his body would
"What? Is it also part of the armor? It can make the gloves without power source function. Is "it" a power source?
After thinking for a while but having no clue, Xue Tong finally decided not to dwell on this issue and planned to take off the gloves. But at this time, he discovered another problem. The gloves had been completely integrated with his body, so what?
Take it off? After trying a few times with no results, Xue Tong couldn't help scratching his head. When he was at a loss, he suddenly felt a familiar throbbing coming from "it". Along with a sense of itching, the pair of fist gloves
It actually decomposed and refined under his eyes, turning into countless tiny tentacles that retracted into his arms.
Then, he heard Sarah's slightly anxious voice suddenly coming from outside.
"Mr. Xue Tong, Mr. Xue Tong. Oh, I'm sorry, I don't want to disturb you. But there are some things I think you'd better take a look at."
"Okay, I'll come." Xue Tong agreed. After tidying up the room, he opened the door. He immediately saw Sarah's pretty face.
It’s just that Sarah’s face is a little pale now. When she saw Xue Tong come out, she took Xue Tong’s hand and ran away without saying a word. Only then did Xue Tong realize that everyone in the carriage stood up. Everyone’s face was exposed
A solemn and frightened expression.
Walking along the aisle of the truck onto the roof, a strong gust of wind hit us immediately. Xue Tong couldn't help but squint his eyes.
"There, Mr. Xue Tong. That direction."
Sarah's worried voice sounded in his ears, and Xue Tong followed the little girl's white hands and was stunned for a moment.
On the distant horizon, I saw a billowing smoke rising noisily. There was also the faint sound of a motor.
"Another convoy?"
"No, Mr. Xue Tong, of course not. That's a gang." Sarah explained hurriedly. "Our radio station received their signal to stop."
Bandits!?
Xue Tong's heart sank. After all, they met.
In fact, it is completely normal to encounter bandits in the desert. Even after he escaped from the shelter, he was worried about being robbed by bandits. What's more, it was a brigade with such a big target? But compared with him, the brigade
Tuan is obviously more suitable to play the role of a "sheep".
In order to rob, most of the bandits are equipped with modified high-horsepower motorcycles (motorcycles) and off-road vehicles. They are far from comparable to the dilapidated classic cars in the brigade. The bandits used the radio to transmit the request for parking, full of arrogance.
smell.
"Have you ever encountered a bandit before?" Xue Tong felt like he had asked nonsense.
But little Sarah still answered seriously. "Of course, Mr. Bloodeye. It is impossible to travel in the wilderness without encountering bandits. But we have the pass of Lord Carl. They only have the right to plunder, but they have no right to kill us."
that power."
The lords are the largest bandits in an area. With their passes, they enjoy limited protection in the area. When encountering other bandits, they can escape as long as they pay enough tribute. The bandits are not stupid idiots.
Generally speaking, we don’t do things that involve fishing in a dry land.
"What about this time?"
"This time is different." Sarah smiled bitterly. "I'm sorry, Mr. Xue Tong. We just encountered a wave of bandits before we met you, so we don't have enough tribute to give them. You know, if
Without tribute, we would not be able to enjoy the protection of the pass."
Sarah didn't say a word. Even if there were tributes paid, they would have no living supplies after paying these tributes. Who let Xue Tong eat one-tenth of the food of the brigade? So in order to survive, no matter what, this
No tribute could be paid.
Then the only way is to escape. But the problem is in the vast wilderness, how can a brigade with only old vehicles escape from being hunted by gangsters equipped with motorcycles?
This is simply asking for death.
He took a deep breath. His blood sense seemed to smell the smell of blood in the air. This gave him a faint excitement. An excitement that he was about to see blood. Since escaping from the shelter, he had been waiting for a long time.
No blood was seen. But he still suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked calmly.
"Where's Captain Vic?"
"Uncle Vic went to organize a convoy in the vehicle behind. But I know, I'm afraid he himself doesn't think that will work." Sarah sighed. "We are so short of weapons. The most powerful weapon in the brigade.
It's a triple shotgun loaded in the car at the back. Under normal circumstances, it can be a bit of a deterrent to the bandits. But now we have no bullets..."
There was a rare hint of shyness on Sarah's face. "You know, we are very poor."
"So..." Sarah raised her head and looked directly into the blood pupils with an unprecedented seriousness. The beautiful big eyes were shining with the light of hope.
