Chapter 298 Differences
"Da da da..."
"Ahhhh...!!"
Screams and gunshots rang out at the same time, spreading throughout the streets and alleys of the village.
"boom!"
Sergun heard the sound and ran away, only to see a house on the edge of the village explode with a bang. A strange translucent creature exploded out of it, rolled around on the ground, jumped up suddenly, and stopped on the top of a house.
"Hiss~!"
The monster neighed, and then the soldiers saw clearly what the object that flew out was.
The body is translucent like water, with no obvious features or organs. The head does look a bit like a human, but it is also made of liquid.
The face has no facial features, only a pair of empty and transparent eyes and a large round mouth.
It has no arms and legs, only a large number of translucent tentacles growing all over its body, four of which support its body like animal limbs.
"shot!"
The surrounding soldiers rushed over quickly, and one team fired at the translucent creature that exploded. A large number of bullets hit the transparent creature, causing it to splash liquid and scream in the sky.
"Hiss~!!"
The transparent creature looked up to the sky and screamed, then suddenly jumped from the roof into the crowd.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
Several translucent tentacles suddenly shot out from the body. Some tentacles directly penetrated the soldier's body, while others tied him up and pulled him in front of him to use as a human shield to resist bullets.
"Ahhhh..."
Several soldiers were shot by their own people in succession and died screaming.
"Back off!"
A figure jumped out of the house just now, dropped a grenade from his body, pulled off the ring with a "ding" sound, and threw it towards the translucent monster.
"Crack."
The grenade was thrown very accurately. When the grenade hit the translucent monster, it looked down curiously.
But just this glance caused him to lose his best chance to dodge.
"boom!"
The grenade that fell on the ground emitted blazing white light in all directions, followed by a loud noise, and was enveloped in blazing flames.
"Hoarse~hiss~!!"
The monster wrapped in flames kept screaming and roaring, and from time to time a human howl sounded from within.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
The monster screamed and retreated, its tentacles firing randomly in all directions.
"ah!"
A soldier made a mistake in his position and was pierced by a tentacle, bound and pulled over instantly.
"Ahhhh..."
The monster's body was instantly covered in flames and burned, causing the soldiers to scream in pain.
"Go on!" Benjamin, who had just rushed out of the room, shouted to the surrounding soldiers, "Throw the grenades!"
The soldiers reacted immediately, pulled off their grenades one after another, raised their arms and threw them at the monsters that were screaming in pain and randomly attacking the surrounding monsters.
"Boom boom boom..."
A series of explosions sounded, and more flames enveloped the monster.
The monster retreated step by step and hit a wall with a bang, making no sound.
"Dead?"
Dozens of soldiers surrounded the monster's body, not daring to get close.
"Hiss..."
A "hissing" sound like water boiling came from the monster, and billowing white smoke came out, like steam.
Immediately, it turned into a ball of liquid with a "crash", melted into the ground, and disappeared.
All that was left was a pile of charred corpses that had been bound by tentacles.
"Is this the monster from last night?"
"It seems that he is afraid of fire."
At this time, Lorric and Sergun slowly walked over with Jiezhizuke, looking at the place where the monster disappeared, with doubts on their faces.
"No, it was last night, not this one."
Sergun denied it because he clearly remembered that the unknown monster last night had a pair of red eyes.
"Sir, the monster's body has disappeared, how should we collect it..."
Lorric asked Thurgun a question, but Thurgun's answer was simple.
"Keep looking. Now that you know its weaknesses, there's nothing to be afraid of."
After Sergun finished speaking, he ordered some soldiers to continue investigating. There was no need to kill monsters when they encountered them, just to make them lose their ability to resist.
"Collect these bodies and send their ashes back to their families when the time comes."
Lorrick glanced at the several charred corpses on the ground and ordered the soldiers in the surrounding group.
"Yes, sir."
The remaining soldiers in this group nodded and responded solemnly.
Lorrick nodded slightly, patted their shoulders, and walked towards the motorcade.
They are all mercenaries, and they know very well what is most important to people like them.
Soon, the soldiers in that group took out white storage bags from the convoy, stored the bodies of their teammates, and returned their ashes to their relatives after returning.
"What's the difference between the monster you saw for the first time and the one you see today?"
In the motorcade, Sergun and Lorric looked at Kai Zhisuke, frowning and asking.
"What I saw that day..."
Kainosuke recalled that the first time he saw his mother, who had turned into a monster, killed three policemen, and the second time was that he was thrust into the throat by the monster brother's tentacles.
"This monster is easy to distinguish, but those..."
"It's too late, brother." Kainosuke suddenly paused, and the image of his younger brother Naruya appeared in his mind, and the corners of his mouth stiffly raised, "It's too late, it's over."
"But what?"
Sergun's voice pulled Kainosuke out of his memories.
"But those monsters I saw for the first time..." For some reason, when he said this, Kainosuke suddenly raised his head and his eyes changed slightly, "But they are not monsters, they are no different from humans."
"They have human faces, human behaviors, and human thoughts."
"They are no different from real humans."
Kainosuke spoke loudly, attracting the attention of the surrounding mercenaries.
"Just like humans, there is no difference!?"
Unexpectedly, when he heard this sentence, Seguen's eyes narrowed, and he pinched Kainosuke's throat with one hand and spoke fiercely.
"What the hell are you talking about!?"
"Monsters are monsters! How can monsters be compared with humans!"
"Kid, I think you're scared!" Sergun lifted Kainosuke up with one hand and narrowed his eyes, "Anyway, we have found clues to the monster, and you are no longer useful."
"No, don't...ahem..."
Suddenly, Kai Zhisuke trembled all over, as if he had woken up, and found himself being held by Sergun's throat, struggling hard.
In fact, he didn't know what happened just now.
It felt like he had fallen asleep, and even he didn't know what he said.
"Sir, it's better not to kill him, he is still useful." At this time, Lorrick stood up to intercede for him.
"What's the use?" Sergun glanced at him, and Lorric looked at Kainosuke with a smile in his eyes, "He is someone who can walk alone in such a place for two months and still come out safe and sound.
