Chapter 1
Shi Yu got lost in the forest.
It was a rare opportunity to travel with her parents - she put on a light new dress, and her long hair was combed into an exquisite bun by her grandmother. Shi Yu also used some lipstick that she had secretly saved money to buy. She dressed up beautifully and set off with her parents who had finally returned from abroad.
This was supposed to be a happy journey, but because she was distracted for a moment at the end of the group, the trip might end up as social news.
...How could this happen?
Shi Yu really couldn't walk anymore. She was young, but she had the delicate and frail features typical of girls of her age. She didn't even finish the 800-meter run.
After taking two more steps, Shi Yu groaned and squatted down, hugging her knees. She felt suffocated and aggrieved. It was clearly a scenic area, but the forest was so vast, remote, and foggy that she couldn't even see the stairs. All she could see was a greenish gray.
"Is there really anyone in a place like this..." She muttered while hugging herself.
The air was damp and cold, but Shi Yu didn't know when she broke out in a thin sweat. She stood there in a daze for a while, and dazedly heard the chirping of birds, which seemed to come from a very far distance, and seemed distant and empty to her ears. In the steel-colored forest, the sound gradually approached, and circled above Shi Yu as sharply as a whistle.
Faintly, in the unknown mist, shadows surged and rustled.
“—Crack.”
It seemed like there was some sound coming from somewhere.
Shi Yu was startled, her mind racing with memories of her childhood autumn outings. The park was littered with fallen maple leaves, whether freshly fallen, tender and still moist, or dry, cracked from the sun, all piled on the ground. She'd crushed countless leaves as she chased and played with her playmates, and she'd never heard the tiny, shattering sound so clearly before.
She hugged her bare arms, suddenly feeling a little scared.
The dim light in the woods disappeared completely, and Shi Yu could smell a little bit of the sour smell of the earth.
She couldn't help but shiver, still hugging herself, and like a hedgehog with limited mobility, she rubbed against the tree.
...it got colder.
It wasn't difficult to notice this, as small bumps of stress had already appeared on her trembling arms, but Shi Yu was sweating even more and she couldn't control it.
The increasingly cold and smelly air rushed into her body, weighing heavily on her lungs. Shi Yu began to feel dizzy uncontrollably. She breathed heavily and her heartbeat gradually became irregular.
The mist was floating, and the rustling sounds of branches and leaves were continuous.
In the cold, Shi Yu's pupils dilated slightly. She suddenly heard the violent beating of her heart. Before something happened, she collapsed on the ground that had been frozen hard without her knowing when. Then, with her head half lowered, she slowly caught a glimpse of a corner of the huge figure that was slowly looming over her.
The long and thick limbs stirred up the tangled fallen leaves on the ground, the black and yellow circular patterns, the sharp foot blades, and the thorns with fine hooks all over them. The distinct sense of crisis prompted her to scream, but her body could not react, and she could only tremble and shed silent tears.
However, before the fear of impending death could fully ferment, the temperature around Shi Yu suddenly dropped, and the gray mist around her was lifted up by a cold wind. The small hurricanes wrapped in countless tiny ice fragments were as sharp and brave as swords breaking through huge waves, and all of them crashed into the behemoth in front of her.
A sudden, cold storm threatened to blow her away. Shigure squinted her eyes, instinctively grasping at blades of grass to steady herself. A shrill cry echoed overhead, but before Shigure could register its piercing intensity, the storm dissipated, the sound abruptly fading, and everything fell into silence once again.
The change took only a few seconds from the beginning to the end.
Shi Yu shivered as she opened her eyes a fraction, revealing a fragment of a limb entwined with countless crystal-clear shards of ice. The shards clung to a layer of ice, parasitic and covering the entire area of Shi Yu's field of vision—and it continued to spread upwards. Her gaze followed the ice upwards, finally taking in its entirety.
- A huge black and yellow spider. Its specific appearance has been distorted because it is covered by thick ice. It can only be felt that its size is more exaggerated than the alien monsters in the movie.
Thrilled by the biting cold, Shi Yu finally broke free from her nearly suffocating and dazed state. The black-haired and black-eyed girl shivered, and then a panicked scream came out of her throat, as if she had suddenly woken up from the deepest nightmare. Unbridled tears wet her cheeks, she was sweating all over, and she looked extremely terrified.
"here!!"
Shi Yu suddenly heard a roar... It was the voice of a young boy. His uncontrollable anger was revealed in his cracked and hoarse ending tone. The voice was very close. She was so scared that her voice stopped abruptly and her whole body trembled.
"Prey No. 228! Is your army such a loser?! You can even let this go!"
This was another boy's voice, his clear voice filled with mockery and the same anger.
"There's no need for you idiots from the Second Army to jump around. Those damn guys were so slow in their trap training that this kind of shit happened—" It was another boy, but his voice was hoarser, perhaps because they were practically shouting at each other.
"team leader……"
"Fuck, who's afraid of them..."
Suddenly, a large number of people seemed to burst into the woods, both men and women. The sounds of arguments, roars, and scolding filled the air above the woods. Shi Yu seemed to hear the sounds of machinery, the sounds of gunpowder exploding, and the sounds of fighting...
An indescribable smell filled her nostrils along with the sound of bustling footsteps. Shi Yu couldn't describe it, but she felt that the smell was probably more pungent than the smell of burning charcoal, and it also had a faint fishy smell.
She couldn't stand the smell of this kind, but Shi Yu was sobbing non-stop and couldn't pay attention to it. Although their movements sounded a bit scary, but... this was a crowd, and it was more important to find a way to seek help from them.
She sniffed and tried to stand up by holding the tree behind her, but she didn't expect that when she looked up, she saw a large group of men and women in uniform with guns on their waists.
Dark green... a bit like the field uniforms he remembered. Uh, is he a soldier? Shigure was a little stunned.
They looked too young, mostly high school students. At the same time, the young soldiers at the front of the crowd also noticed the disheveled Shi Yu, and some surprise appeared on their faces, especially the red-haired boy at the front who looked not to be trifled with. He was still clutching the collar of another black-haired girl, and when he suddenly saw Shi Yu, he frowned and unconsciously let go of the girl's collar, without even regaining his vicious gaze.
"……that."
Shi Yu scratched her hair - her bun had fallen apart due to the impact just now, so some ice chips fell out of her hair. But she didn't have time to clean it up at this time. She thought she should say hello first... but she was interrupted by someone just as she opened her mouth.
"How could there be outsiders in such a closed area?" the black-haired girl asked expressionlessly, straightening her collar, which had been yanked out of shape by the red-haired boy. She had a pretty oriental face, neatly cropped hair, and a slender, tall figure. Her cold, almond-shaped eyes slanted at Shi Yu.
"I just warned you that there were signs of life near No. 228," a young man with deep features and a monocle replied. A fluorescent green light flickered on the lens. He adjusted the silver-rimmed lens and pointed out coldly, "You didn't hear it."
"Is it a mythical beast?"
"Probably not. The humanoid form of a mythical beast wouldn't be so human-like, and it can smell."
"Indeed...it's quite beautiful."
Some people were discussing in whispers, and Shi Yu's ears were filled with an indistinct buzzing sound for a moment.
"Hi~~ cute little girl!" A young man in a military uniform with half his sleeves missing raised his sturdy arm enthusiastically to greet her from a distance. The corners of his eyes tilted upwards, revealing a fox-like smile. "Excuse me, are you a spy?"
The tone was cordial and casual, the first half of the greeting clearly like a big brother next door, but the last word suddenly brought silence to the woods. The constant quarreling in the group also faded, and time seemed to freeze.
They all looked at Shi Yu, with a half-smile on their young faces, and no one said a word.
Shigure: “…No.”
Shi Yu held back her sobs, not quite understanding why this seemingly sunny boy would ask such a question. She wiped her eyes and added hesitantly, a little frightened, "I got separated from my family... I wanted to go home, I..."
They listened in silence to Shi Yu's stuttering explanation, some listening and some not, their eyes expressionless, some full of interest, others a mixture of fatigue and vigilance. Shi Yu was so nervous that she froze for a moment, then realized with a tingling sensation that she hadn't noticed before, and there were people standing behind her.
A considerable number of these people were casually playing with weapons such as pistols or daggers. They leaned nonchalantly against trees, stood in scattered corners, or squatted on the ground, staring at her with amused eyes, like a group of lions trapped here to kill time.
Someone else spoke. Shi Yu followed the voice and looked towards him. He saw a young man with silver hair and purple eyes, and a gentle and noble temperament. His beautiful face showed just the right amount of curiosity and gentleness. His purple eyes curved slightly, and he asked with a chuckle, "Are you a Bmega?"
Unlike the other young men who at least had some bruises on their bodies, he was neatly dressed and stood tall under the tree. He was so neat and clean that he didn't fit in with the surroundings. Coupled with his fair and delicate face that seemed to glow, it seemed that he could easily make people like him.
As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of many young men around him became deep and dark, and the looks they gave him were filled with a bit of creepy suspicion.
However, Shi Yu didn't feel anything. He just looked at his face and nodded slightly as if sleepwalking. Then, as if waking up, he quickly shook his head in denial and asked in a low voice, "B...what is it?"
Hearing this, a slightly sarcastic smile appeared in the silver-haired boy's eyes. He pursed his lips and smiled, but did not respond.
Shi Yu felt a little lost... and also a little scared that he couldn't explain.
“Tsk.”
The handsome boy with red hair brighter than flames had an impatient expression on his face. There were many burn marks on his dark green combat uniform, and a large piece of gauze was stuck on the right side of his face, making him look quite unwell.
He swung his arm and walked towards Shi Yu with a gloomy expression. The boy's unexpectedly beautiful green eyes fluttered across her face, then coldly turned away from Shi Yu's back, as if he found her face a bit annoying.
"Why are you dithering? Just knock him out and carry him away. If you find anything wrong, just kill him." He chuckled with an unclear meaning and raised his eyebrows. "We'll talk about Lei Yin later. Oh, we have to go first..."
Shi Yu was frightened by him and took several steps back. When she heard that he had knocked her out and killed her, she couldn't even speak a word of begging for mercy. She hurriedly wanted to find a place to hide, but before she could move, she fell into the arms of the red-haired boy... Someone behind her quickly stepped forward and hit her on the back of the neck. Shi Yu's eyes went dark in an instant, and her legs were weak and she was about to fall to the ground.
——She didn't even feel someone suddenly approaching from behind. Fortunately, the red-haired boy took two steps forward and caught her lightly.
It doesn’t smell good… She thought dazedly while being held by a stranger. It’s so hot… And there’s a strong smell of chili and dust. Doesn’t this person take a shower often…?
"You actually caught it? Hey, you're welcome!"
These were the last words she heard before she fell into a deep and sweet dream.
