Chapter 385: Truly Blocked
The chubby boy had used all his strength, but the person behind him still stuck close like a shadow. The long claws on his back were lifted to a point, slowly approaching the chubby boy, getting closer to his body.
But when he saw Zhou Erzhu, he paused for a moment, allowing the chubby boy to run up to Zhou Erzhu.
He smirked slightly, whispering, “I didn’t expect another pure yang-bodied boy. With two boys here today, it should be enough.”
These brats now, amongst the six of them, only the two youngest haven’t broken their bodies yet. The others have all broken their yang essence. Only the hearts and spinal bones of these two can be used as main materials, the rest can only be used as scraps. It was the same before; collecting these five main materials was such a hassle. The efficiency is just too low.
“Not very old, each one has found a woman, making it troublesome for me. I had to make so many moves. Luckily, I encountered two this time, which should be enough when counting them. I can go back and report. Otherwise, if this drags on and Hachikuju finds out, it could be troublesome.”
He was actually looking for males who hadn’t been intimate with women, so he searched among the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys, but he miscalculated.
Now that the end of the world has come, young people in this age group have become more lively in their thinking. Without the restraint of elders, their bodies have matured and they have already experienced things they shouldn’t have, which means they are not pure anymore and cannot be used for the task at hand.
But children who are even younger are not allowed out of the city by their elders, so this person can only choose teenagers aged fifteen or sixteen, like Zhou Erzhu and Yang Hao today, to make up the required number.
Using the heart and spine of impure young men is horrifying.
“Who are you really?”
Zhou Erzhu gathered his courage and asked the man who stood still. Before the apocalypse, he helped his family with farming, so his skin was tanned, but at the same time, he was stronger than other kids his age. After exposure to evolutionary ripples, his strength surpassed that of ordinary adults. He had even killed a weakened first-rank zombie after the apocalypse testing phase.
Now, he thought this man was similar in strength to the zombies, so he confronted him without fear. The chubby boy who was proud earlier had now hidden behind Zhou Erzhu.
While the man was lost in thought, Yang Hao nervously told Zhou Erzhu everything.
When he tried to catch up with the first group, he found that the man had already killed them all. Disgustingly, he was digging out their hearts with his clawed fingers and sniffing them one by one.
After being discovered, the chubby boy was chased all the way here, just like Zhou Erzhu had seen.
The chubby boy should be grateful to Zhou Erzhu for talking to him earlier and not staying with the others in front. Otherwise, he would be lying on the ground, among the bodies in a pool of blood now.
Imagining his heart being toyed with by the creepy man, the chubby boy felt nervous all over.
“Hey chubby, give me the baton. There’s nothing to be scared of. This guy is just relying on having a weapon. If he’s really that tough, would he fight with us like this?”
Seeing the man’s lack of response, Zhou Erzhu turned to Wang Xuan and said.
But the chubby boy, with a tear-streaked face, couldn’t speak clearly. After being stared at by Zhou Erzhu, he finally managed to say a complete sentence.
“I-I was nervous just now and I lost my dad’s baton. It was on my waist before, but now I can’t find it. I don’t know where I dropped it.”
Slapping his forehead, Zhou Erzhu was amazed at his friend for losing something so crucial for survival.
Now that he didn’t have any weapons, his chances of winning were even slimmer.
What he didn’t know was that the man’s lack of movement was not because he hesitated upon seeing the two, but because he planned to finish his task by dealing with them, so he wasn’t in a hurry.
Even if he had the best weapon in the world, he wouldn’t stand a chance because he couldn’t use it at all.
Just then, the man with clawed hands finally made a move, making the two boys extremely nervous.
“Er Gouzi, do you think he will attack? I heard that the Red Flame Wolf Rider has been active today. Maybe we should call for help, if we shout maybe someone will come to rescue us, even a City Guard would do.”
The chubby boy tugged at Zhou Erzhu’s sleeve, saying anxiously.
He didn’t want his heart to be dug out. If he knew that this person not only would dig out his heart but also pull out his entire spine, he would probably be paralyzed with fear right where he stood.
“I told you not to call me Er Gouzi.”
Zhou Erzhu glared at him and corrected him again.
“Er Gouzi, I’m really scared.”
If Zhou Erzhu hadn’t refused to leave, Yang Hao would have already run away. He stayed now out of loyalty, but his fear had reached its peak because he didn’t witness it himself, but he saw this man literally dissecting a few older friends they played with before.
Just as Zhou Erzhu was about to say something, he suddenly noticed that the place where the person had been was now empty.
He quickly turned around to look, but only saw Yang Hao with a confused expression.
“He disappeared all of a sudden, I don’t know where he went.”
At that moment, a creepy voice came from above the two, slowly sounding in their ears like the voice of death.
“Are you looking for me?”
Zhou Erzhu slowly looked up and was terrified to see the person from before hanging upside down above them, arms crossed with claws, wearing a strange smile as he looked at them.
In the next moment, the cold claws came slashing down.
Zhou Erzhu had no weapon in his hands, so in desperation, he remembered the large bag on his back, lifted it hoping to block the attacker. The leather inside the bag was said to be the best by his father.
The man looked disdainful, wondering if this tattered leather could withstand his attack, even without much effort.
But when he continued to stab downwards, the man’s expression instantly changed.
How come?
It really blocked it!
