On the frigid streets, only a few scattered groups of people came out together to search for supplies. Those who could come out at this time to face the threat of mutated animals either had some real skills or had no rice to cook at home and had no other choice.
Ah Fu and Ah Shou rushed out of the city as soon as they entered, and now they're nowhere to be found.
Lin Ruo wore a down jacket underneath a windbreaker and walked slowly down the once bustling street. Only four days after the extreme cold, the place was desolate, and screams could be heard everywhere.
Suddenly, a person covered in blood rushed out of an alley. His cotton-padded coat was torn by something, and fluff was coming out.
He ran forward in a panic, and when he looked up, he saw Lin Ruo standing in the middle of the road. As he passed Lin Ruo, he instinctively shouted at her, "Run! There's a monster!"
As the man ran over, Lin Ruo also saw the animal chasing after him from around the corner. It was a huge gorilla, nearly 4 meters tall, with its thick arms swinging wildly, causing the surrounding buildings to fall under its iron fists.
Lin Ruo's eyes lit up. The prey had come to them on its own, which was much easier than having to search for it herself while living in the mountains.
"Don't just stand there! Run! This thing eats people!" The man ran a few meters away and saw Lin Ruo standing there motionless, so he turned around and warned her as he ran.
Lin Ruo raised an eyebrow. This person was actually quite nice. There weren't many people like this in the apocalypse. It was already kind of her not to push her back.
She turned to look at the gorilla that had run closer. It was so beautiful; how could she let it go after finally encountering it?
Fighting mutant animals of this size, ordinary pistol bullets can only break through their skin and cannot kill them at all. You need to use a powerful rifle or sniper rifle.
But both rifles and sniper rifles are too long, so it doesn't seem logical to take them out of a backpack.
So in the end she chose the ore knife, which is sharp and sturdy, and she wants to make several more of them.
As the gorilla's fist came crashing down on her, she jumped lightly, using the force of her twisting waist to swing her knife in the opposite direction, a strike she wielded with only 50% of her strength.
A flash of light, and Lin Ruo slashed a huge wound into the gorilla's massive hand, making a loud "bang" as Lin Ruo's knife became lodged in the gorilla's hand bones.
Lin Ruo's arm was also violently shaken by the slash, and she couldn't help but mutter, "Such hard bones!" After her body flipped over, she landed lightly.
"Agh!" The gorilla pulled its arm back in pain, roared to the sky, its eyes flashing with ferocity, and went completely berserk!
Blood spurted out and splashed onto Lin Ruo. Lin Ruo turned slightly and shifted her body, causing the blood to splatter onto the ice on the ground.
The gorilla's eyes were bloodshot. It opened its uninjured hand and quickly slapped down at Lin Ruo, but Lin Ruo dodged it by jumping up.
Her body spun twice in the air, and with the help of the powerful momentum, Lin Ruo swung the knife downwards with all the strength of her waist and arms. This was her full-force strike. The weight ring on her right wrist snapped instantly with a "bang" and fell to the ground, smashing a small spiderweb crack into the ice surface.
"Crack!" The knife struck the gorilla's fist squarely, cleaving it in two. One half of the fist fell to the ground.
"Ouch!" Another cry of pain rang out. The gorilla was already very intelligent, and it became even more so after the mutation.
Seeing that both its hands were injured and it was no match for the human in front of it, it simply turned and ran without hesitation.
How could Lin Ruo let it get away? Her weight-bearing rings were all ruined!
With a leap, he quickly soared into the air, performed a somersault, and arrived in front of the gorilla. He swung his knife horizontally, aiming for the gorilla's neck. "Crack!" The blade stopped at the gorilla's neck bone again, not completely severing it.
The gorilla stumbled back a few steps, then collapsed to the ground with a loud thud.
The massive body crashed into a corner of a nearby building, sending up countless tiny stones and ice shards.
"Tsk!"
Standing on the giant gorilla corpse, Lin Ruo pulled out the ore knife with a forceful pull, and a spurt of blood gushed out.
She gently rolled down, her feet landing on the ice. Countless drops of blood gushed from the gorilla's corpse, wetting its fur and flowing onto the ground.
Lin Ruo tossed the ore knife in her hand. Even with half her strength and the ore knife, she couldn't cut through the gorilla's bones. These large mutated animals have really hard bones after they mutate!
The man who had been running forward was now standing there dumbfounded, his mouth agape. How could that seemingly weak and unassuming man be so powerful?!
It wasn't until Lin Ruo tilted her head and looked at him, her usually calm eyes gradually showing interest, that the man suddenly came to his senses, scrambling away without looking back.
What kind of person could fight such a huge monster and kill it so easily?! They must be a monster too!
Seeing that the man had run far away, Lin Ruo released her spiritual power, spreading it out to make sure there was no one else around before she put the big gorilla on the ground into her spatial storage.
"Awoo!"
Just then, Afu and Ashou returned with their prey. Afu brought back a huge lizard, which was 2 meters long excluding its tail, and had a mouthful of sharp teeth, making it look like a crocodile.
Ah Shou brought back a fox. It was a pure white snow fox, large in size, and 2 meters long. Its fur was glossy and smooth, making it excellent material. Once he got back and skinned it, it would be very warm.
Lin Ruo put the lizard and fox into her spatial storage, along with the gorilla from earlier. These animals were not domesticated pets; they seemed to have escaped from a nearby zoo.
