Chapter 234 Chapter 234 Heavy Fog

“Help!”

"Get out of here, get out of here, let my son go!"

"Don't come over here, grandma, I've been caught, I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"

…

As the tentacle monster continued to slap the damaged wall, the cracks and gaps in the wall grew larger and larger, affecting more and more families.

The residents of the entire building have become trapped.

Screams, cries, calls for help, shouts...

The desperate cries from their companions one after another stimulated everyone's heart and even stopped breathing.

He Junxia frowned.

He controlled his mental power to expand in the direction of the sound, but it was still a long distance away from the building whose defenses had been breached by the tentacle monster.

There was only one way to save the people in the building.

The old man on the balcony had a gloomy look in his eyes, but he didn't hesitate for too long. He quickly turned back to the living room, tore off a mask and put it on.

He shouted, "Kangping, Shuhui, I'm going to check the fog-proof passage downstairs. You and the child stay in the bedroom and don't come out."

Zong Kangping immediately opened the door: "Dad, why are you going outside? It's too dangerous."

He Junxia: "I'll go help them."

He never considered himself a good person, but he would still help when he could.

Zong Kangping hesitated to speak.

From a moral point of view, he should not stop his father from going out to save people. If you put yourself in his shoes, when you and your family are in a life-or-death situation, you will also hope that a hero will come from the sky to save them.

But everyone has selfish desires.

It's so dangerous out there, with tentacle monsters and giant birds. If something happens to their father, what will happen to their family in the future?

Zong Kangping hesitated but couldn't open his mouth.

The screams and cries for help coming from not far away were like a sharp knife stabbing deep into his heart.

He Junxia looked at the thoughts clearly written on his face and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm sure."

He never does anything without preparation.

Zong Kangping watched his father leave the house with mixed feelings: "Dad, you must be careful. Pengpeng and Jiajia are waiting for you to come back home and play with them."

"knew."

The old man's figure disappeared around the corner, but a confident response came from him, and Zong Kangping felt inexplicably relieved.

Dad is always the reliable dad.

…

After getting out of his adopted son's sight, He Junxia quickened his pace again and ran down the stairs in just two or three steps.

But whether it was because they were worried about the tentacle monster breaking in, or for some other reason, there was a thick pile of debris in front of the iron door on the first floor leading to the outside world.

There are chairs, single sofas, children's bicycles...

The small iron gate was completely blocked.

He Junxia rolled up his sleeves and began to move the debris piled in front of the door without stopping. Time was life, and every step he took late could mean one more person falling victim to the monster's murderous hand.

"Hey, old man, what are you doing!"

A questioning voice suddenly sounded behind him. He Junxia replied quietly while moving things: "I have something to do outside."

The person who spoke suddenly became anxious.

"Are you sick? Didn't you hear the monster outside? If you want to die, can you please not implicate the people in this building?"

He Junxia didn't say anything else.

At this time, any explanation would be wrong. The other party is not a malicious troublemaker. Instead of wasting time talking, it is better to go out and deal with the tentacle monster as soon as possible.

It took two minutes to move the debris in front of the door. He Junxia grabbed the handle of the small iron door, opened a small gap, and slipped into the fog-proof passage.

Unfortunately, the anti-fog passage did not completely block the invasion of fog. The passage was filled with a faint red mist, and several red mushrooms grew in the corners.

He Junxia glanced at it without paying much attention.

The red mushroom is highly poisonous and can kill people if eaten, but it has no other functions.

He ran quickly through the fog-proof passage, stirring up a scorching wind. Unconsciously, the seasons changed, and now it was early summer.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

"Boom"

The cement stone wall that had weathered twenty years of wind and rain was reduced to ruins. The monster excitedly waved its tentacles and swept away the soft prey hiding in the steel and iron.

"Let go of my wife, you bitch, go to hell."

The young man rushed out of the door holding a sharp kitchen knife. Facing the arrogant monster, he was filled with anger.

"Don't worry about me, go back!"

The young woman who was hung high by the tentacle monster was crying with tears and snot all over her face, and she just wanted her husband to return to a safe place as soon as possible.

"Wife, I'm here to save you."

The sharp blade chopped heavily at the monster's tentacles, which were covered with densely packed round suction cups, which were extremely disgusting.

“Sizzle——”

The expected scene did not appear, and the kitchen knife forged from fine iron made a teeth-grinding sound when it hit the soft tentacles.

Both the man and the woman were stunned.

They had seen the live broadcast a few months ago, and the government had also proven that ordinary knives and weapons could harm monsters.

Why is this happening?

The monster's tentacles are harder than kitchen knives!

The man looked down at the gash on the blade that was several centimeters long, and his anger was replaced by disbelief.

"Run!"

"Qian Liqun, you are a man. I don't regret marrying you. Just forget me from now on."

The woman stretched her neck and bit the tentacles that trapped her, trying to buy her husband some time to escape.

It's a pity it's too late.

Scientific research has shown that the reaction speed of tentacle monsters is five times that of humans, leaving their prey with no chance to escape.

What's more, the man never thought of running away.

He looked at the blurry silhouette of his wife in the air, his eyes reddened: "We live together, we die together!"

Some people may think that this act of committing suicide in vain is stupid, but if a person can remain rational and calm at all times, he is not a human being, but a robot.

But compared with the tentacle monsters hidden in the red fog, humans who cannot use weapons are still too weak.

After all, the happy ending of a hero saving a beauty is only a scene that appears in novels and TV dramas.

The reality is that young men have also become the monster's reserve food.

The young couple was hung high in the air, and the suction cups on the tentacles firmly sucked their bodies, making it impossible to move except for their heads.

There are several other people in the same situation as them.

They cry, they struggle, they try in vain, they give up, they despair...

Death may be the best destination.

The tentacle monster felt that it had caught enough prey and was about to leave. In the blink of an eye, a ball of purple-red flame quietly rushed towards its brain.

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle…”

The palm-sized flames spread rapidly as soon as they touched the monster. After all, it was still flesh and blood, and the tentacle monster crackled as it burned, emitting a faint aroma similar to burning grease.

The sudden attack caught the tentacle monster off guard, and the intense pain caused by the flames burning its body made it subconsciously release the tentacle suction cups.

The person trapped by the tentacles fell to the ground with a thud. You could tell it was painful just by the sound, but life was more important than pain.

As soon as they landed, people rolled and crawled into the buildings, and the effect of adrenaline was brought to the extreme.

"Huff," "Huff," "Huff."

Finally, they arrived at a relatively safe enclosed corner where five or six people huddled together, gasping for breath.

The sense of urgency of escaping death gradually dissipated, and several people looked at each other, somewhat confused about the situation.

What happened just now?

They were all prepared to die, but they never expected the monster to suddenly go crazy and let them go.

The young woman lowered her voice, "It seems someone set a fire to save us. I saw fire on the monster."

"No wonder."

Everyone suddenly understood.

Having finally escaped from the brink of death, they did not dare to go out to look for their savior, but were filled with gratitude towards this unknown kind-hearted person.

May good people have a peaceful life!

In the outside world shrouded in red fog, the two tentacle monsters were hit by purple-red flames one after another and soon turned into ashes.

He Junxia turned and left in a hurry.
