Chapter 17 "You like it so much?"
The alien creature with a strong "appetite" came faster than expected. The RV had just passed the corner of the street when a roar came from behind, accompanied by the sound of a glass door shattering.
When Lin Mian looked back in shock and fear, Jiang Jie's attention was not there.
He stared straight ahead with a deep gaze, then stepped on the accelerator to the floor, "Hold on tight."
It is impossible that there is only one alien creature attracted by the smell of blood.
Before Lin Mian's mind could react, his body sat down as he was told.
The next second, a ferocious beast-like mutant fell from the sky, leaping down from some tall building, and hit the road in front of them with a "bang".
Lin Mian felt as if the car shook.
An alien creature appeared in front of him, but Jiang Jie had no intention of slowing down and rushed straight towards it.
Lin Mian subconsciously raised his hands to cover his eyes.
Then he felt the car body tilt, and his body fell due to inertia and was pulled by the seat belt.
With a "bang", something fell to the ground and hit nothing.
When his body turned back to normal, he opened his eyes and found that their car had avoided the mutant and was moving forward at a high speed.
On the rearview screen, ferocious beasts were chasing relentlessly.
Lin Mian felt that this scene was a little familiar. They were also chased in the same way when they were in H City. Fortunately, they managed to get away that time.
Not sure if he would be that lucky this time, he gripped his seat belt nervously.
The car speed has been increased to the maximum, but the RV is not as fast as a small car, and it was unable to get rid of the alien for a while.
Jiang Jie turned the steering wheel sharply and the car turned into the street on the left.
The alien creature behind jumped up nimbly, climbed up the building at the corner, and scrambled along the wall, as if it was even faster than when it was on the ground.
"Is that a monkey?" He was too nervous to notice it before, but now he felt a sense of familiarity from its movements, so he spoke hesitantly.
"Hmm." Jiang Jie glanced at the rearview camera, his expression completely devoid of the urgency of being chased by an alien creature. "It should be in the zoo."
Before he could finish his words, the alien creature jumped down from the building again, grabbed the street lamp and swung it forward, and the distance between them quickly shortened.
At the same time, the streetlights also collapsed.
It grabbed the next street lamp and continued to swing forward, pulling three in a row. When it flew out again due to inertia, it was very likely to land on their car.
The speed could no longer be increased, and this seemed unavoidable.
Jiang Jie's face was calm. He had no intention of speeding up, but instead stepped on the brakes.
"squeak--"
After the harsh friction sound, there was another "bang" sound, because the vehicle stopped and the alien creature landed in front of their car.
It stared at them through the car window, bared its teeth, and made a series of "ahhhhh" sounds, it was unclear whether it was proud or provocative.
Jiang Jie thought it was the latter, so he smiled.
The alien creature pulled the metal trash can off the roadside and threw it towards their car.
Lin Mian subconsciously raised his hand to block in front of him.
Two seconds later, he didn't feel the object hit the car and carefully moved his arm away, his eyes wide.
The trash can was wrapped by the water in front of the car window and hovered in the air.
He blinked blankly, and the water seemed to come alive, suddenly throwing the trash can away and hitting the alien creature.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when it was dodging, Jiang Jie opened the door and got out of the car.
Before closing the door, his voice drifted into Lin Mian's ears, "Stay in the car."
Jiang Jie got out of the car, but instead of using his supernatural power to go over, he pulled out the machete fixed behind his waist.
He raised his foot and walked towards the mutant, while spinning the knife in his hand.
As if sensing a provocation from his actions, the alien creature bared its teeth and rushed towards him using its hands and feet.
He hadn't done anything yet, but Lin Mian in the car leaned forward nervously.
Compared with the alien creature, Jiang Jie's tall body also looked petite, as if he could be knocked away by the other party in an instant.
Of course Jiang Jie was not knocked away. He quickly dodged the claw and swung his knife at it at the same time.
The alien creature felt pain as its skin was cut. It retracted its injured claw and swung out the other one fiercely, intending to catch the hateful human.
Jiang Jie didn't dodge this time, but turned the knife around in his hand and stabbed it towards the palm that was grabbing him.
However, the alien creature turned and retracted the knife before its hand was stabbed. The blade just grazed its flesh without causing any injury.
It is said that monkeys are smarter than ordinary animals. Even if they are alienated, they know how to think and do not act recklessly.
It hissed, turned around suddenly and lashed out with its long tail.
Jiang Jie ducked to avoid the monkey's tail, which brushed past his shoulder.
Standing up, he pushed off the ground and jumped onto the back of the alien creature, which was two times taller and stronger than him. Then he grabbed its fur and climbed onto its shoulder.
The alien creature shook its body impatiently, trying to shake off the annoying human.
Jiang Yi grabbed its hair tightly, his body almost motionless. When it raised its hand to scratch him, two water balls were thrown out and hit its wrist.
The pain caused by the supernatural power was worse than that caused by an ordinary blade. It howled in pain and retracted its hands.
Jiang Jie took the opportunity to raise the machete. The blade was imbued with supernatural powers and he swung it down with great force, breaking through the solid skull of the alien creature and piercing into its brain, almost reaching the handle.
Amidst the high-pitched and shrill howls, the alien creature's body swayed and fell down.
Jiang Jie pulled out his knife and used the force to leap backwards, making it look like he had kicked the other person down.
In Lin Mian's dull sight, the alien creature fell down, and Jiang Jie also landed steadily on the ground.
He looked at the corpse of the mutant indifferently. There were a few drops of blood on his cheeks from when he drew the sword, making his face look a little seductive.
He put the knife, which was still clean despite being wrapped in supernatural powers, back into the scabbard at his waist and turned around to walk towards the car.
When the car door was opened and people got in, Lin Mian felt like he was still in shock.
The process of dealing with the alien creatures was so smooth that he never thought that such a deadly and ferocious monster would be killed in front of him so quickly.
He blinked slowly, pursed his slightly open mouth, and stammered, "Are you okay?"
Jiang Jie took two sips of water and smiled when he heard this: "Are you okay? Didn't you see everything?"
Yes, Lin Mian felt that he had been stupid again. He looked at the other person carefully, still feeling a little unbelievable.
Jiang Jie put down the water and looked at him, "What do you want to say?"
Seeing that he had seen through her, Lin Mian pursed his lips and said, "I just think you're so strong..."
"You mean, it's different from that useless young man before?" Jiang Jie understood his implication. "I think the strength of this ability upon awakening is probably linked to one's physical fitness. The stronger the body, the stronger it will be upon awakening. And after acquiring this ability, my strength has increased significantly, so I dared to go down and face that mutant. I feel I should be able to handle it."
Anyway, this little rabbit doesn't know much about super powers, and he hasn't had close contact with other people with super powers except himself, so he just fools around with half-truths.
Lin Mian was really fooled by him, mainly because the man's appearance was too reliable, so his words were very convincing.
Seeing that he was sweating and his face was stained with blood, Lin Mian took out the commonly used wet wipes from the front cabinet of the car, pulled out one, unfastened the seat belt, leaned over and wiped the man's face.
After wiping it twice, he realized what was happening and paused. He thought that when he was taking care of someone yesterday, he should have wiped the wet wipes to the other person.
Jiang Yan felt at ease being served by him. He took a tissue to wipe his hands and raised his chin to signal others to wipe the sweat and blood on his neck.
Since he didn't mind, Lin Mian didn't bother about it. It was hard for men to deal with alien creatures, so it was his duty to wipe their sweat.
Thinking of this, he carefully wiped the man's cheeks and neck until they were clean and refreshed.
Jiang Jie, who was pleased with the service, threw him a white crystal and started the car himself.
As the car started moving, Lin Mian instinctively fastened his seatbelt before turning the beautiful crystal, which was the size of a little finger joint, to examine it. "What is this?"
Jiang Jie put his hands on the steering wheel and said leisurely, "It was dug out from the head of that mutant."
Lin Mian suddenly felt that the crystal was hot, but he didn't dare to throw it away.
Glancing at his stiff body from the corner of his eye, Jiang Jie raised his lips and said, "Don't worry, I've cleaned it with my supernatural powers."
Lin Mian could see without him saying anything that the crystal was very clean, but he was a little concerned about the fact that it was dug out from that thing's brain.
He suppressed his emotions and said, "Why would there be such a thing in my mind?"
"I don't know," Jiang Jie shook his head naturally, "Let's keep it for now, who knows what it might be useful for."
It was small and didn't take up much space, so Lin Mian certainly had no objection. He held the crystal and raised his hand towards the sunlight.
The crystal refracted tiny bits of light, so beautiful it didn't look like something dug out of a monster's brain at all.
After playing with it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what it was, so he had to open the storage in front of the car, find a bag, put the crystal in it and keep it away.
They drove back to the previous parking lot relatively smoothly. Jiang Jie showed some signs of fatigue at the right time and stood up to sit on the sofa in the back.
Lin Mian followed him and saw him leaning his head against the back of the sofa with his eyes closed, pretending to be asleep. Feeling a little worried, he reached out and touched his forehead.
Before they even touched each other, Jiang Jie opened his eyes and asked, "What are you doing?"
Lin Mian subconsciously wanted to retract his hand, "I want to see if you have a fever again."
Jiang Yan grabbed his half-retracted hand and pulled it back. Instead of placing it on his forehead, he placed it on the side of his neck and guided his fingers behind his ear. "Try here, it's more accurate."
The temperature of the skin touched by his fingertips was normal, but Lin Mian inexplicably felt that the hand he was holding was hot. He subconsciously curled his fingertips, as if he was rubbing that skin.
His heart skipped a beat and he tried to pull his hand away, but instead he was pulled hard and fell onto the small sofa.
Jiang Yan casually put his hand on his waist, held him in his arms, and closed his eyes again, "Don't move."
Lin Mian subconsciously wanted to get up, but he stopped and didn't dare to move. He was quiet for two seconds and then raised his head cautiously.
In my sight, I saw the man's well-defined jaw, and further up, his slightly pursed thin lips, and the mole under his lips.
His eyes were fixed on the small mole, and he was stunned.
"You like it so much?"
The person with his eyes closed suddenly spoke. Lin Mian came to his senses and looked away a little embarrassedly.
After waiting for two seconds and seeing that the other party didn't speak again, he looked over quietly and found that the man didn't open his eyes and was still leaning on the back of the sofa in the same posture.
It seemed that he didn't intend to make a fuss about it, and Lin Mian breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, a chuckle suddenly sounded above his head, and the hand on his waist suddenly tightened, forcing him to move closer to the person, with the tip of his nose almost brushing against his chin.
The instigator finally opened his eyes and looked down at him. His palm rubbed his warm waist through the thin T-shirt and looked into his frightened eyes. "Your eyes are too fiery. You disturbed my sleep."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong." Lin Mian apologized subconsciously.
The speed at which he admitted his defeat made Jiang Yan chuckle again. In a good mood, he patted his waist twice and mercifully let him go. "I just had two fights. I'm hungry."
Lin Mian immediately said: "Then I'll go get you something to eat!"
Jiang Jie removed the arm that was around him and let him go, following his running back with his eyes. His palm, which seemed to still retain his warmth, slightly clenched, and there was a hint of darkness in his eyes.
