Chapter 257 - Lord Ⅱ (2/2)
A few crisscrossing red rays of light appeared on the body of the strange fish in the air. With a crashing sound, the strange fish suddenly burst into pieces. Bits of flesh, blood, and broken bones rained down from above, soaking Feng's entire body. The bizarre blue fish blood flowed along Feng's body through his legs, and finally entered the water. It quickly dyed the water blue and turned into a light blue that spread out in all directions.
Feng helplessly looked at his entire body that was drenched in the fish blood. There were even a few pieces of fish meat hanging on his body. He swept his scraps of meat into the water in disgust, and Eva came back out of the water and said in a low voice, ”Come on, before those damned things find us.”
”What the hell is this?” Feng asked.
”Descendant of the Crypt Lord.”
Feng made an exaggerated expression. Of course, no matter how exaggerated or wonderful the expression on his face under the tactical helmet was, it was hard to see clearly. He said, ”That kind of thing also has descendants?”
”Why not?” Eva said impatiently, ”The Crypt Lord is strictly speaking a sea creature, an egg. They belong to the gynaecological community and can lay eggs without mating. With one million eggs per ovulation, even if the survival rate of the descendant of a gigantic mutated beast was extremely low, but even if there was only a thousandth chance of survival rate, there were at least thousands of those strange fish in the base right now. F * ck, now I know why human faced moths fight to move, I'm afraid there aren't many creatures in this base that like to live in the same room as the descendants of the Nerubian Lord. Moreover, they are far from being friendly! ”
Maple made a gesture, beckoning Sue back, then looked at Eva and said, ”I didn't know you were so knowledgeable.”
”Before I became a experimental subject, I was a doctor in both biology and biochemistry!” Eva stretched out two fingers, gesturing ferociously in front of Maple's eyes.
Feng was stunned and stopped in his tracks. Eve straightened proudly and strode past Maple. Seeing her bright red hair in the dark, Feng couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
”I wonder if those two balls of stuff are also that good.” Feng said softly with an indescribable malice.
Ahead of her, Eva stopped abruptly and turned back to glare at Maple. Feng quivered, thinking in his heart, ”Why is this woman's ears so sensitive?”
Behind him, a familiar sound of water could be heard. Feng looked back and saw a curtain of water spraying out a few hundred meters away from them. The second, the third … More and more water curtains appeared, forming a semicircle around the three of them. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but when Feng heard the sound of grinding teeth, he felt goosebumps all over his body. He signaled with his eyes and hastened his steps with the other two towards the exit of the safe passage.
It wasn't until they had reached the stairs that Feng let out a sigh of relief. Below, the water level seemed to rise again. A few dark figures were swimming under the water like sharks!
In the living area of the second floor's base, a butcher raised his crude metal warhammer and smashed down. Immediately, the head of a live male corpse exploded into a paste. Dark red blood mixed with a grayish-white brain matter oozed out from the hammer. The butcher raised his warhammer, stuck his sharp tongue out from his homemade mask, and lightly licked the surface of the warhammer.
The blood and brains on the surface of the hammer were immediately wiped clean. The butcher let out a heavy breath, then threw the hammer onto the living corpse. It used its hands to pick up the leftover pulp of the living corpse. To a butcher, the brain fluid of a living corpse was much more nutritious than the rest of the body. It could provide the energy needed for a butcher's survival. And according to the classification of energy levels, the brain fluid energy of living corpses was the highest. Next was blood, and then, muscle and bone.
Living corpses didn't like eating their own kind, but since they were short on food, they didn't mind using their own kind to nourish themselves. Just like the butcher in front of him, he was too hungry. Although the taste of their own kind was rather unpleasant, as long as they could survive, the butcher didn't mind.
However, just as he swallowed the brain juice along with the meat, the butcher suddenly smelled a wonderful scent. It was the smell of powerful energy. The butcher let go of the corpse and stood up. Under the simple and crude iron mask, the butcher saw two humans.
There was a man and a woman, the man was short and stout, and the woman was tall and slender. From a human's perspective of beauty, the speechless woman had the beauty of a calamity, but to a butcher, she was no different from the short and stout man. In the eyes of the mutated beasts, there was no difference in beauty, only in strength. This was true for living corpses and for other living beings as well.
From a certain perspective, mutants were a purer existence than humans.
Now, the butcher saw that these two human bodies contained a tremendous amount of energy. However, it was obvious that these two people were much dimmer than the other women. So the butcher made up his mind, picked up the hammer at his feet, and ran like a tank toward the little man.
To the butcher, the short and stout man was like a feast. Unfortunately, with the butcher's intelligence, he did not know how to judge the difference in strength between the two. At the same time, he didn't know that one had to evade the attacks of a strong martial artist, and not rush forward like a moth to the flame!
