Chapter 2657 Metal Nightmare
“Heaven——”
Seeing these monsters rushing towards Ella, Mendoza instinctively wanted to save him, but his reason told him that he should just get out. die!
So he forced himself to huddle in the shadow of the rock, holding his breath, and even his trembling was restrained.
After they surrounded Ella, they immediately let out a metallic scream, like a crazy chorus. The stimulated Ella woke up from the confusion caused by the injury, and then screamed too. .
"What! What are you-"
She raised a hand in vain to try to drive them away, but it was easily cut off from the elbow by the sharp claws. A monster squatted down and hit her on the cheek. Shang Kuang took a bite, tearing off large chunks of flesh while Ella trembled and screamed, and blood flowed down its chin - as if waiting for this signal, the other three creatures also began to tear at the injured people.
Mendoza's eyes widened, as if he was forcing himself to perform some kind of terrible penance. He watched the monsters tearing at the bones protruding from the broken arms, accompanied by a large amount of thick arterial blood. Pulling it out of the flesh, he watched as they stabbed Ella's belly with their claws until the muscles tore open, pulling out her entrails in handfuls and scattering them all over the floor.
After the cruel minute ended, Ella’s shouts fell silent. The creatures feasted on her flesh and dragged the bloody remains out of the tunnel. As the monsters dragged away Ella's mutilated body, Mendoza even saw one of them wrapping Ella's intestines around his neck like a scarf. superior!
Mendoza has never been a coward, but he was really scared. He had never heard of such monsters in the Slag Mountain War Zone. Where did they come from? Is it a biochemical monster created by mechanical slave owners?
Now he can only wait for those things to leave. He looks at his and Ella's baggage on the ground. These supplies must be sent to the front line. This is his responsibility, and he needs to report this matter. There will always be a chance for revenge in the future. .
After making sure those things were gone, Mendoza carefully slipped out. He picked up his bag, hid Ella's bag, and then walked towards the passage in the opposite direction from where the monster left.
When entering the deep mountain tunnel, he was always alert to what was behind him, but when he passed a small crack, he found that the crack in the tunnel was covered with a strange green light.
However, he did not dare to stay longer, but speeded up.
When the passage curved to the left, he felt that he saw a flickering light in the distance, which reflected the rock in bright yellow. Perhaps this was a way out to the mountainside, a crack in the stone. , you can follow a secret path to the foothills.
For the first time since that horrific incident, Mendoza felt a glimmer of hope, and he hurried forward.
"Caesar."
But a faint voice forced him to stop.
Kay Sa.
Mendoza was shocked. If he remembered correctly, this was Ella's voice, her cry when she was unconscious, but she was clearly in front of him.
He turned around slowly and saw a figure staggering out of the green shadows. For a moment, Mendoza seemed to see Ella's face, but after blinking, only half of the face was left, and the other half was left. Half covered in a rusted skull, red eyes gleaming with madness.
It walked slowly, murmuring "Ella", with a string of minced meat and gold bones hanging from its chin, and sharp bone nails protruding from its spine, like a raised crown. , but it has a metallic texture.
Mendoza felt as cold as ice for a moment. It turned out that these monsters were always following him. Did they want him to take them somewhere?
The next second, the thing screamed at him Pounced, Mendoza turned and ran in terror. Claws as sharp as knives attacked him, scratching his bundle, and he spilled a lot of things as he fell forward.
In a panic, Mendoza touched the weapon on his waist, a short dart gun found in the warehouse. Out of some crazy reflex, when the opponent rushed towards him, he raised the short gun and shot without thinking, without even aiming. .
The first jagged bullet hit the guy's mouth. This kind of dart bullet has an empty chamber with a built-in dormant beacon. When a dart bullet hits the target, it will send a message that can The signal that guides other darts causes other darts to continue to hit, causing a series of damage and even bone penetration.
Under the blow of a series of bullets, sparks burst out. The monster howled and jumped to the side, with a big hole in its head.
Mendoza also cut off his straps and jumped up, kicking it out. His boot hit the animal in the chest. He felt that he had kicked it on the iron plate. Although it did not cause any damage, he kicked it down. Then the door Dosa fired bullets into its head over and over again until they ran out of bullets.
In the end, the burning red in the eye sockets gradually faded into dim and black embers, and the skull cracked under the continuous shooting of bullets, but the crazy Mendoza did not stop, he kept stepping on it with his feet That thing's head, until the monster's head turned into bloody debris, anything it used as a brain was shattered.
It was only then that he finally discovered the truth about this monster. They were a group of mechanical, skeleton-shaped robots made of metal. They must be another masterpiece of the perverted imagination of those mechanical slave owners. They covered the skins of living people. On yourself!
After a long time, Mendoza sat down on the ground, feeling his hands and feet weak.
Blood spattered on the ground, flowing along the circles of torn intestines, flesh and Ella's shredded clothes, and then Mendoza cried on the ground.
His hands were covered with blood, and every breath he took was like a blade inserted into his lungs. He kind of wanted to lie there forever, huddled in the darkness and waiting until his compatriots brought help.
But he couldn't rest, not yet, because at this moment, Mendoza heard the sound of more monsters approaching.
In addition to the sound of their claws rubbing against the rocks, Mendoza also vaguely heard screams, gurglings, and crazy cries. He stood up tremblingly, bared his teeth as he cried, and opened a gash that had been torn open. holding the baggage in his arms.
When he started running, a deformed shadow appeared on the wall of the passage behind him, strange lights flickered and danced, and the screams got closer and closer.
"Multiple guns have appeared recently. There is something abnormal about the situation in which the Sikarian Rust Seekers lost contact.”
While looking at the data flowing on the suggested tactics panel, Engineer Hugo chatted with the messenger monk Toppin next to him. We didn't even talk to each other. They were all the lowest rank among technical priests. Although they were much more advanced than apprentices, they were still inconspicuous beings in the forging world.
Since their status is low, their turn will definitely not be a good job. For example, now, with a few apprentices, they will establish a forward stronghold on a mountainside in the B2 area of the Slag Mountains to provide the front line."
