Don't run, there are monsters everywhere.

"Where did this little guy come from?"

Hearing the girl's voice behind him, Lu Linhai looked back.

Seeing the little girl appearing in the ruins, Lu Linhai was obviously a little surprised.

Taking advantage of his distraction, the boy who was pressed by his head shrank back and quickly ran towards the girl.

Lu Linhai originally planned to chase him, but found that Lin Yi and Zhou Kai looked at the direction where the boy was running with a vigilant look.

Lin Yi frowned, and the "click" sound coming from his ears was getting closer and closer.

At this time, the boy had come in front of the girl. The girl held the boy's hand, and the figure gradually became transparent, and the boy disappeared with him.

"They... disappeared?" Lu Linhai looked as if he had suddenly realized something, "They can be invisible?!"

"Something is coming!" Just as Lin Yi's voice fell, something hit the building not far away, and there was a "boom" and the house collapsed.

"What is that...?" Seeing the thing in front of them, Lin Yi and others were stunned.

The reason why they didn't hear the footsteps of this thing is that this thing has no feet at all, and it didn't even land on the ground. Instead, it was suspended in the air at a distance of about an arm's length from the ground.

This thing looks like two diamond-shaped columns that were combined together due to a collision, one up and one down, like a "string" character.

"This thing doesn't look like a living thing." Zhang Cheng's eyes lit up, and he carefully looked at this unknown object that suddenly appeared.

It was dark black all over, with a metallic texture.

The strange red lines were neatly arranged on the surface, which was particularly conspicuous.

"Is this... a machine?" Lin Yi was stunned at first, and combined with the "click" sound he heard, he understood it instantly.

Those subtle "click" sounds, if nothing unexpected happened, were the sounds of the internal parts of this thing working.

But why did a machine suddenly appear here?

Moreover, this machine should be chasing the little boy just now.

"This thing looks seamless, as if there is no gap at all, it's amazing!" Zhang Cheng stared at this unknown machine with excitement in his eyes.

The machine is assembled from different parts, so more or less, you can see traces of assembly - such as the gap left after the shell is assembled.

But on the machine in front of him, there is no trace of assembly, which is enough to prove that the craftsmanship of this thing is extremely powerful.

Zhang Cheng couldn't help but want to get close to study it, but reason told him that this thing is not easy to mess with.

Based on the principle of less trouble, Zhang Cheng whispered to others: "Everyone, this thing is not looking for us, so let's retreat."

Lin Yi understood Zhang Cheng's plan, thought about it carefully, and felt that what Zhang Cheng said made sense.

The city is full of aliens, and it is not easy to survive, and the outside world is the same.

Whether it is those strange trees with thorns, groups of mice and birds, and wild aliens that no one knows where they will come from, they are not something that two children can deal with.

So, whether to help these two children, Lin Yi decided to wait and see.

Although he thought so in his heart, the development of things was obviously beyond their expectations.

The strange machine suddenly stopped, and then a voice without any emotion came out from inside the machine-

"Target found, number three, start capturing."

At this moment, Lin Yi and Zhou Kai found that the "clicking" sound inside the machine became faster through the enhanced hearing.

Two flexible mechanical tentacles suddenly emerged from the four sides of the diamond-shaped column above. These tentacles looked like the tentacles on the abdomen of the mantis, with the barbs on them slowly opening and closing, and the top of the tentacles could still be opened.

Then, the top of the column opened and stretched out the ninth tentacle.

The nine mechanical tentacles kept waving and started moving again.

"......" Looking at the machine that changed its shape in front of him, Zhang Cheng thought of the nine-headed bird in the myth.

"Something's wrong!" Lin Yi frowned. He noticed that the speed of the strange machine was getting faster and faster, but it did not move in the direction where the boy ran away, but moved towards Lu Linhai.

With a "bang", Lin Yi did not hesitate and decisively pulled the trigger.

He did not dare to underestimate this machine, and he did not know what kind of power this machine had.

Because I don't know, I dare not let it get close to Lu Linhai.

The energy hit the shell of the machine, and the secondary explosion pushed the machine away.

Although it left a shallow mark on the shell, it did not penetrate it, which is enough to show that the shell of this machine is harder than the shell of the mantis.

"Detected interference from a living organism nearby, adjust the plan, and eradicate the living organism."

The strange machine is still suspended, and the mechanical voice sounded again, accompanied by an emotionless voice, the lines on the shell seemed to move.

The red lines kept changing on the shell, as if they had an inexplicable magic that made people unable to look away for a while.

The machine in front of me began to distort, no, not just this machine, but also the ruins around it.

It seemed that the whole world was stretched and rubbed, and even the body became light.

Something was floating here from the distorted vision, which was particularly dazzling.

That was...

The thread of fate!

Lin Yi suddenly came back to his senses. He found that the thread of fate emerged from this strange machine, connecting all of them.

These threads were translucent, just like the time with the strange man. They could not be stopped by coincidence. Human intervention was required to prevent the impending crisis.

At this moment, Lin Yi noticed that the top of the tentacles extending from the machine was open in four petals, and something gathered at the top, which was extremely similar to the energy shot out from the bullet container.

"Don't look at those patterns!" Lin Yi quickly loaded the gun, but the tentacles were scattered and could not be hit with one shot.

So Lin Yi aimed at the bottom of the machine.

He fired quickly, and almost at the moment when the top of the tentacles shot out, the energy shot from the shotgun hit the bottom of the machine.

The machine was offset due to the explosion of energy, causing the energy beam to be offset and fly past the others.

With a series of loud noises, the others finally woke up.

"These patterns have a hypnotic effect, don't look at them!"

"Isn't this thing chasing the two children just now?" Lu Linhai frowned, and he realized that the situation in front of him was a little bad.

If you can't look directly at this machine, it will be quite troublesome to deal with it.

But once you look at the machine, you will be instantly distracted by the twisted patterns.

"Lin Yi, give me the gun!" Zhou Kai looked at Lin Yi.

When they turned their heads, their eyes met.

At this moment, Lin Yi understood Zhou Kai's plan.

Since you can't see, then listen.

Although Lin Yi used Zhou Kai's ability, Zhou Kai was obviously much better at judging the opponent's actions based on sound.

During the two months of training with Hua, Zhou Kai called the enhancement of vision and hearing "seeing the wind" and "hearing the wind" respectively.

Lin Yi threw the shotgun in his hand to Zhou Kai, who caught the shotgun, quickly loaded it, and closed his eyes to carefully feel the trajectory of the wind.

However, this machine is not stupid, it will not stupidly stay in place and let Zhou Kai attack.

Just as Zhou Kai felt the wind, the tops of the nine mechanical tentacles all opened, and energy began to gather.
