Chapter 17 Night Watch
Its five-meter-long body is completely covered with black chitinous hard skin. It has a pair of sharp giant pincers and claws on its front, and a dark green poisonous needle covered with burrs stands tall on its back.

She turned out to be a monster with a human-like upper body and a scorpion lower body!

Bah!
On the ramparts, a flash of fire burst from the revolver.

As soon as the monster stretched out several pairs of appendages to stand on the city wall, it was shot and stopped immediately.

The woman raised her head slowly, stared at old K and said, "You also have poisonous thorns? But it's too weak..."

"Bastard!" Old K drew out another pistol and pointed at the woman.

Before he had time to fire, there was a sudden burst of intensive shooting behind him.

Da da da da!
In an instant, in the void beside Old K, a green poisonous needle was revealed, and it kept resisting back and forth in the void.

If it wasn't for the firing this time, Poison Needle might have successfully attacked Old K!

A layer of cold sweat broke out on the old K's back, and he couldn't help but look back.

It's Liu Ping!
He was holding a miniature submachine gun and was shooting non-stop!

Qi Lu came to his senses first, and quickly swung his tomahawk, slashing a phantom far into the void.

when!
The poisonous needle was five or six meters long and as thick as the mouth of a bowl. After being hit by a bullet and phantom cut by the tomahawk, it retracted under the city wall unwillingly.

——It returned to the back of the woman.

At this moment, Old K looked back at Liu Ping, and said in disbelief, "You know how to use a gun? Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Liu Ping said: "I just learned it after seeing you use it. It's very simple."

Old K said nothing.

Is something as simple as a gun?

It is true that anyone who knows how to fire a gun, even an idiot, can learn to pull the trigger in a very short time.

But to hit that stinger that lurks in the night...

If Liu Ping is not lying, then his ability to learn and imitate is simply terrifying.

At this time, the woman leaned forward, and the six pairs of appendages were immediately put on the city wall, and began to climb upwards.

When the bullet hit her body, it was just bursts of sparks, unable to penetrate her hard chitinous skin.

"That won't work, buy me some time," Qi Lu said.

After speaking, Qi Lu took a few steps back, closed his eyes, and began to breathe in a strange rhythm.

Old K said: "Buy time? No problem, leave it to me."

He wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead, his face became grim.

I almost fell for that monster just now!
With this in mind, Old K solemnly took out a silver bullet and loaded it into the revolver.

He didn't aim, and fired a shot directly at the void outside the city wall.

Bah!
A silver light flew out of the gun barrel, drew an arc in mid-air, and went straight to the bottom of the city wall.

There was a pause.

The woman screamed in pain: "Ah—damn mortal! How can you have divine power!"

With a blank expression on his face, Old K directly took out a grenade from his waist, tore off the ring, and threw it viciously.

three,
two,
One.

boom! ! !
In the darkness, blazing flames rose into the sky accompanied by violent explosions.

"You—damn—"

The woman roared frantically.

However, a black shadow pierced through the flames and rushed towards the city wall.

The speed of the monster was getting faster and faster, and it ran twice in a row, over a distance of tens of meters, and climbed up the city wall.

It looked a bit miserable, the chitin shell was cracked, green blood seeped out, and one of its appendages was broken.

—but it doesn't care anymore.

It will rush up in one breath and eat these nasty prey!

Da-da-da-da.

A series of gunshots rang out.

Liu Ping was just watching, but suddenly he raised his submachine gun and fired continuously.

The monster pounced on Old K, but was hit backwards and forwards by the dense bullets.

With Liu Ping's support, old K immediately dodged and retreated, and at the same time pulled the trigger again and again.

Under the double firepower, the monster had to retreat to the edge of the city wall, almost falling down.

click -

It slammed into the wall with a pair of giant claws, and wobbled on the wall to stabilize its body.

"Old K, I've run out of bullets." Liu Ping shouted loudly.

Old K's heart sank.

His firepower alone was not enough to repel the monsters.

The woman also heard Liu Ping's shout.

It waved its tail needle and kept resisting the attacks of Old K, but turned its gaze to Liu Ping.

next moment.

The monster shook its body, and rushed towards Liu Ping ferociously!

Old K's complexion changed drastically, and he shouted: "Damn——quickly dodge, run away!"

Tongues of flame continued to shoot out from his double guns, but they were blocked by the poisonous needle dancing in the air, without causing the slightest impact on the monster.

The monster has rushed to Liu Ping!

It laughed wildly and said: "What delicious flesh and blood, I can already smell the fragrance of your body..."

Between lightning and flint——

The monster's voice stopped abruptly.

Liu Ping made a random wrong step, and casually passed through the pincers of the pair of giant pincers.

It is not clear whether Liu Ping aimed at the monster, or the monster took the initiative to send the head in front of him, in short - Liu Ping's body was pressed against the woman, and the miniature submachine gun in his hand was deeply inserted into its mouth.

"I lied to you."

he said with a smile.

Da da da da da!

The submachine gun burst out with a dull roar.

The monster's whole body is covered with a hard chitin shell, but there is no such defense in the mouth.

A crooked hole was punched out of one of its heads, and it let out a scream full of pain, and its huge figure struggled frantically on the city wall.

At this moment, Qi Lu opened his eyes.

I saw that Qi Lu's figure had swelled several times, and his height was close to five meters. His whole body was like a giant, full of muscles as solid as steel.

With his current body shape, he was just right for the three-meter-long battle ax in his hand.

"call--"

He took a long breath, bent his body slightly, and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

A dazzling cold edge burst from the city wall and went straight into the sky.

The poisonous needle met the sharp edge, but was cut off directly.

"Ah—you wait for me—"

Howling crazily, the monster turned into a black shadow and flew out of the city wall, quickly darting towards the wilderness, and soon disappeared.

Qi Lu, Old K and Liu Ping stood guard on the city wall for a while.

There has been no movement in the wilderness.

Qi Lu's figure gradually returned to normal, and suddenly collapsed on the ground.

"I'm fine, it's just that the force exploded several times just now, and now I'm a little bit out of strength." Qi Lu panted.

Liu Ping and Old K looked at Qi Lu's hands together without speaking.

I saw his arm trembling constantly, and the tiger's mouth was torn open, revealing a bloody gash.

"The blow just now was really strong." Old K said with emotion.

Liu Ping squatted down and said softly, "Don't move."

He aroused the formula at will, and a layer of misty water mist immediately appeared in the void, and it quietly fell on Qi Lu's hands.

Qi Lu smoothed his brows.

"Hiss—it doesn't hurt anymore!" He said with a smile.

"You can't use any more force today, or the wound will tear and it will be even more troublesome." Liu Ping urged.

"Thank you brother Liu, it's great to have a treatment!" Qi Lu grinned.

He turned his head and said to Old K, "Give me a gun."

Old K took out a pistol, loaded it with bullets, and threw it to Qi Lu.

The three sat down against the city wall, resting while staring at the wilderness outside.

"Brother Liu, you even fooled me just now, I thought you really emptied the bullet."

Old K laughed.

Liu Ping said: "I have no choice but to gamble. After all, it can understand our words, and it is here to prey. It should know how to pick soft persimmons."

He looked at the severed poisonous needle and took a few careful glances.

This thing seems to be a good material, if you can keep it and let yourself refine a knife...

With Shudao, one's combat power can be raised to a higher level, and self-protection will not be too strenuous.

"This poisonous needle comes from the body of a dead monster, so it should be considered a relatively rare thing." Liu Ping asked.

"This is our team's spoils. We can sell it at the bar after dawn. The three of us will share the money equally," Qi Lu said.

Old K also nodded.

"That's good." Liu Ping said.

——Although there is some regret in my heart, I am not in a hurry for this moment.

The most important thing is to integrate into this organization first.

Suddenly, the expressions of the three of them moved in unison, and they looked towards the wilderness outside the city wall.

"Something is coming." Qi Lu said in a low voice.

Liu Ping sped up his speech: "I'm really out of bullets this time, old K, do you still have bullets for my gun? Give me some, and I'll give you the money later."

Old K stared at the wilderness, took out a heavy black box, put it on the ground, and kicked Liu Ping.

Liu Ping opened it and saw that they were all bullets of the corresponding model.

He quickly removed the magazine and started loading.

——The miniature submachine gun is really easy to use. It doesn't require physical strength at all. You only need to pull the trigger to release a certain powerful attack.

Of course, the premise is that there are enough bullets.

Only Qi Lu shouted in a low voice: "Here we come."

Liu Ping raised his head and looked into the darkness together with Old K and Qi Lu.

In the depths of the wilderness, a human figure appeared again.

The figure walked straight towards the city wall.

As it got closer and closer, the three finally saw each other clearly.

a little girl.

She has ruby ​​eyes, long hair with shawls, and a gorgeous dress.

is her?

Liu Ping was secretly surprised.

I didn't expect to meet her here.

I don't even know what kind of existence she is.

I saw the little girl walking past the city wall dragging the huge poisonous scorpion with one hand.

——It was the female scorpion from before, and it was dead at this moment.

The little girl suddenly felt something, turned her head, and met Liu Ping's eyes.

"what?"

She looked at the gun in Liu Ping's hand, and then at the poisonous scorpion in her hand.

next second.

A voice sounded in Liu Ping's heart: "Did you smear poison on the bullet? I tasted its blood just now, and the blood contained the same poison as last time."

"Ah, yes, this poison is very useful. I collected some when I killed the wolf demon, just in case." Liu Ping responded.

"Sinister guy... but it'll be more palatable this way, thanks."

The little girl muttered, and never looked over at the city wall again.

She dragged the scorpion corpse and continued walking towards the wilderness.

soon.

Her figure disappeared.
