Chapter 38 "Let's go catch prey."
"Brother Jie?" Lin Mian turned to look at the driver's seat. "What's wrong?"
"Little rabbit," Jiang Yan looked over and raised an eyebrow at him, "Would you like another B-level crystal?"
What do you mean? Lin Mian reacted for a moment, then understood. "You mean..."
Jiang Jie smiled without saying anything. The mutant was originally planning to attack the unlucky mutant and wanted the mutant core in his head.
But he ran away immediately after noticing me. In a sense, I can be considered the savior of that stupid guy.
"Hold on tight," Jiang Jie warned, "let's go catch our prey."
As soon as he finished speaking, the car sped out, passed the intersection where it was supposed to turn not far away, and drove straight towards the village.
The dark-skinned man behind them saw this and cursed softly before running after them, "Didn't we say we were just passing through?!"
It’s not that their village is xenophobic, it’s just that they have suffered losses before.
Some time ago, someone passed by their village and said he wanted to stay overnight. At that time, they kept them in, adhering to the idea that people should unite and help each other.
Who knew that those people took advantage of the middle of the night when everyone was resting to steal the supplies of the house they were staying at, and when they were discovered, they killed the couple. If someone hadn't noticed the noise and rushed over, they might not even have been able to save the eight-year-old girl who was hiding.
After that incident, they realized that the world had completely changed. Not only did monsters eat people, but people also "eat people."
So they built a wall on the road in front of the village to prevent anyone from approaching.
Who would have thought that today they would meet someone who would tear down the wall as soon as they had a disagreement, and now he is heading straight into their village.
His two legs really couldn't keep up with the other person's four wheels. In a hurry, he waved his hand and set off a bomb.
Jiang Jie noticed it and raised his fingertips, and the stream of lightning attacking the rear wheel was blocked by the water shield. He glanced at the person chasing the car from a distance on the rearview screen, damn stupid thing.
Just as he was about to shake hands and teach him a lesson, he suddenly heard the roar of a strange beast from the village ahead, and could also see the faint glow of fire.
It seems that other alien creatures are fighting with the mutants inside.
Although the man behind was far away and couldn't see the fire, he could hear the roar clearly. He thought to himself that something was wrong and ran even harder.
At the same time, he saw that the RV in front of him suddenly accelerated and quickly left him far behind.
He couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he had misunderstood them? Were they kind-hearted and wanted to help deal with the mutants?
Jiang Jie was certainly not that kind-hearted. He was just afraid that the B-level mutant that was trying to avoid him would run away.
As the RV drove into the village, the road became narrower, just enough for the RV to pass through.
Continuing forward, they saw a high wall still under construction. It looked like it was going to enclose the surrounding area to prevent the alien creatures from breaking in. It was equivalent to a small safe zone.
The people in their village are quite smart, but unfortunately, these earth walls can only block the primary alien creatures, but it is difficult to block the more advanced ones. It is useless to block them if you encounter them. They cannot be compared with the solid high walls in the real safe zone.
But Jiang Jie didn't care about this. After the RV drove into the unfinished high wall, it soon ran into a fighting scene.
It was a young man who looked not very old. He was throwing fireballs one by one, trying to distract the manic mutant from approaching nearby houses where other ordinary people were hiding.
The flames hit the thick-skinned mutant, only causing it pain, but not much damage. This showed that his ability was not that strong, at least not as strong as that of the man just now.
It can only be used to temporarily attract the attention of the alien creatures.
Jiang Jie just took a look and didn't intend to meddle in other people's business. He was not a hero who could save the world.
Although Lin Mian found it very touching that the young man was trying so hard to protect the people in the house, he would not interfere with the man's actions. He quickly withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at the scene.
But unfortunately, some things are seeking their own death.
The alien creature was getting annoyed by the human in front of it. It wanted to kill him with one claw, but was stopped by those damn fireballs. It roared manically.
Just then, a motorhome driving by not far away attracted its attention, and it smelled the fresh scent of humans.
He raised his head and roared again, then bent his limbs and leaped forward, rushing towards the RV that was approaching.
"Be careful!" the young man quickly warned.
Jiang Jie glanced sideways at the alien creature that pounced on him, as if he was looking at a dead object.
The winding stream of water hit it with a "slap", directly throwing its body in mid-air to the ground.
A cloud of dust flew up, and the alien creature that was so arrogant just now was suppressed and pressed to the ground by several streams of water, unable to move.
The young man who had just formed a fireball in his hand was stunned.
The RV didn't even slow down and drove straight past.
The alien creature on the ground had its skull pierced by the water, and it was truly dead.
When the dark-skinned man ran over panting, he saw the lifeless body of the Altered Species. He looked at the young man in surprise, "Xiao Liu, you were secretly cheating behind my back. Not only were you able to kill the Altered Species on your own, but you did it so quickly?!"
"No, it's not me..." Xiao Liu was still immersed in surprise. He pointed blankly in the direction the RV drove away and spoke incoherently, "Just now, that car..."
The man's heart moved and he looked at the car gradually disappearing in the distance.
The fleeing B-class mutant went deep into the wilderness. It was moving very fast and it seemed that it really valued its life.
There are many trees in the forest, and it is difficult for the RV to move in. If we let it run any further, it will probably escape.
Jiang Jie's eyes darkened slightly, and the water flowed out rapidly. After reaching the invisible forest, it condensed into ice spikes and flew out at an even faster speed.
Lin Mian only heard a roar of pain from afar, and before he could catch it carefully, their car stopped at the edge of the wasteland.
"Stay here." Jiang Jie left a word and quickly got out of the car.
In the woods, the alien creature that was hit in the back elbow got up from the ground, turned around and licked the injured area. When it sensed the terrifying breath approaching, it planned to continue to escape.
The swirling water surrounded it, and it suddenly lowered its body and let out a threatening growl from its throat.
Its red eyes revealed a fierce light as it stared at the water currents that trapped it. It raised its claws and slapped the ground. Ink-colored mist gathered around it, surrounding the water currents and forcefully tearing one of them apart.
The leaves that fell from the trees were touched by the mist and corroded with a "pop" sound, becoming charred black when they fell to the ground.
The alien creature rushed out from the gap, but it didn't run far before it crashed head-on into the water curtain that appeared out of nowhere. The force knocked it to the ground, and it got up and shook its head, feeling dizzy.
Jiang Jie chased after it at this moment, and raised his eyebrows at the mutant, "You're quite good at escaping."
The tall and strong monster suddenly turned around to face him. When it had nowhere to escape, it lowered its body slightly, showing its sharp teeth and let out a warning growl.
Thick black fog surrounded it, ready to move.
Seeing that the grass leaves around him were corroded by the black fog, Jiang Jie did not find it difficult, but rather very interested.
His smiling expression made the alien creature feel provoked. Its sharp claws dug into the ground, leaving deep marks, and the mist spread and spread towards him.
All the grass and trees along the way the black fog passed by were charred black, which invisibly put pressure on the opponent, hoping that he would retreat.
Jiang Jie did not retreat, but instead took a step forward and faced the black fog.
The fog enveloped him completely, making it almost impossible to see his figure.
This situation, which seemed to have the upper hand, made the alien creature retreat more vigilantly.
Sure enough, the next second, a figure walked out of the black fog. Jiang Jie was surrounded by the water flow, and the fog did not touch him at all.
Instead, the mist was being swallowed up by the gradually expanding water flow, like traces of ink dripping into the pool water, and when it blended together it looked like a large ink painting.
The alien creatures could no longer control the mist they had swallowed and could only watch it "struggle" in the water.
Jiang Jie snapped his fingers, and a large amount of water flow wrapped in mist froze and shattered to the ground with a crackling sound. The mist was obviously not a physical entity, but at this moment it was locked in those ice crystals.
The alien creature seemed to be startled by the sounds, and the hair on its body was about to stand up. It lowered its body and roared, then kicked the ground and rushed towards him, with new black fog surrounding it.
The broken ice that had fallen to the ground suddenly floated up and shot straight towards it.
There were too many of them, and the alien creature couldn't avoid them. It subconsciously drove the fog around itself, intending to corrode the ice crystals.
But it forgot that the opponent's level was much higher than its own, and these mists were of no use to him at all.
The ice crystals penetrated its body without slowing down at all, and it twisted its body to avoid the pain.
Jiang Jie would not let it get its wish so easily. The flowing water directly bound its body and pulled it back to its original place.
In just a few seconds, the alien creature's body was shot like dice. Its eyes were red as if bloodshot. It turned its head and bit the water that was restraining it, pulling it and trying to bite it off.
But water is water after all. It has no place to exert its force. Instead, its mouth is bound by the winding water flow and tightly tightened.
It shook its head unwillingly, trying to break free, but it was helpless and became a trapped beast.
The black fog seemed to sense its anger and spread outwards even further, looking as if it was about to corrode the entire barren forest.
Jiang Jie raised his hand, the last ice crystal floating on his fingertips. He stretched his hand forward, made a wooden basket gesture, and gently lifted it upwards.
Ice crystals shot out as he moved, and at the same time, the water flow pulled the alien creature to raise its head, and in a moment of "whoosh".
The ice crystal shot in from its brow, then passed out from the back of its head, carrying a clear crystal, and fell into the water waiting on the side.
The body of the alien creature fell limp, and as it landed on the ground, it was burned to ashes by the surrounding blue flames.
In the wild forest, only traces of the battle remained.
Jiang Jie took the crystal brought back by the water, moved his neck slightly, turned around, stepped through the sunlight falling through the gaps between the leaves, and left the wasteland.
