Chu Yunsheng immediately put the crossbow on his back and took out the pistol.

From the past experiences, he knew that no matter how dangerous the situation was, even if the sky was falling or the earth was cracking, he shouldn’t panic. If he panicked, then it was [Game Over]!

At this moment, the monster was blocking the exit, he had to fight his way out. It didn’t matter what kind of monster it was – if he wanted to survive, he had to fight to the end!

The crossbow was not a very effective weapon to be used against this type of thin and long monster. Not only was it difficult to aim, even if the arrow hit the monster the frost arrow would probably only be able to freeze part of it.

Although bullets might not be able to hit the monster as well, the fire that the bullets unleashed could burn everything. He hoped that the fire could stop the monster for a while.

Chu Yunsheng didn’t wait until the monster attacked. He pulled the trigger straight away. He didn’t think that this animal would be friendly towards him.

The monster easily dodged the bullets and quickly moved back into the corridor. At the same time, three tentacles, each as thick as a human leg slithered through the air heading towards him from deep inside the corridor.

Chu Yunsheng didn’t really know what to do, so he tried to scare the tentacles away by lighting up the surroundings using the flames from the pistol.

In order to defend itself, two of the soft tentacles immediately split out. They rapidly waved in mid-air trying to block the bullets for the last tentacle. A heavy smell of burnt meat soon filled up in the corridor but it still didn’t retreat.

The tentacle monster was very agile, especially the one that was protected by the other two. It was like a snake, quickly approaching Chu Yunsheng and wrapping around him.

Chu Yunsheng relied on energy s.h.i.+eld talisman’s protection and the Yuan Qi inside his body. He broke free several times, but then was quickly wrapped around by it again.

When the fourth and fifth tentacles appeared, Chu Yunsheng lost his hope. He was tightly wrapped around by the tentacles without any gaps, and his pistol was completely empty. His hands were tightly wrapped by the monster, so he couldn’t reload the pistol.

The tentacle monster probably thought that Chu Yunsheng didn’t have any resistance ability, it started to drag him back to the ward inside the corridor.

Chu Yunsheng tried to halt the panic in his mind, he tried to find a way to escape as fast as he could, but he could not find any.

The hospital wards were located in a four-stories high building. The building was very wide. When Chu Yunsheng was dragged inside, he found that all three floors had already been destroyed. The walls were spread with a sticky substance, as if the whole building was glued together. It was like a mossy cave glowing in a dim green light.

Moreover, the wall was full of naked women. Chu Yunsheng was so shocked that he could not even close his mouth. Some of the bodies were still wearing the shreds of patients’ clothes or nurses’ clothes.

Chu Yunsheng finally realized why he felt something was amiss when he was in the hospital’s hall. It was too clean, he did not even see a single body in the hall area! Red-sh.e.l.led insects only liked to eat brains, they would discard the rest of the body. So the hospital should have many bodies with empty skulls, but when he was in the hall, he did not see any of them!

Chu Yunsheng couldn’t help but feel a chill running down his spine, ‘So this is the place where the missing bodies went, but it seems that all of them were already dead!’

Suddenly, he saw a thin and almost transparent tube that was the size of a finger, was inserted into the back of a girl. With the tube connected to the back of the girl, the girl suddenly started to walk.

She was exactly like the naked woman, who he had seen before. She was controlled by this monster. Chu Yunsheng could clearly see that her eyes were as empty as the woman, who he had seen before.

So this was what was controlling her! No wonder why he felt that the naked woman was moving like a ghost when she walked. So that scream was from this monster when he shot that arrow!

At this moment, Chu Yunsheng was more curious than frightened! What exactly was this monster?

In the middle of the building, it had formed a pool of slimy substance. From time to time some bubbles would pop up, sometimes some transparent and slimy pupa things that contained human bodies would pop up. And the human bodies seemed to be melting inside those things.

Each pupa had a different thickness of tube attached to it. Most of the tubes were connected to a five-meter tall tree-like organism in the center of the building. It was covered with a slimy substance, the other tubes were connected to a small cylindrically shaped organism around the giant one in the center.

The largest cylindrical organism was at least three to four meters in diameter, covered with strangely shaped tentacles, they were the same as the tentacles that restrained Chu Yunsheng.

All the pipes and tentacles seemed to be very busy doing something. Only when Chu Yunsheng was dragged near the monster, did he find out that all the women that had been hung onto the wall had been inserted with the monster’s tubes in the lower part of their bodies, and there was disgusting sticky liquid flowing through the tubes.

Some women’s bellies were swollen, and some of their bellies had big holes. A lot of cylindrical monsters as big as a human palm were crawling out of the holes from those bellies, and quickly used their long tentacles to eat those women.

‘It was breeding! Ma.s.sive breeding!’ Chu Yunsheng was shocked!

He guessed that the pool in the middle was used to feed these monsters.

“What the h.e.l.l are those things?”

Chu Yunsheng was terrified. He started to struggle desperately, but it still could not stop him from being dragged closer and closer to the pool.

Suddenly, a tentacle as thick as a human thigh appeared in front of him. Then the tip of the tentacle started to split, wider and wider until it became a huge mouth.

It then swallowed Chu Yunsheng from his head, and as it engulfed him bit by bit, the tentacle started to get bigger and bigger until it covered Chu Yunsheng entirely.
