Chapter 6, Anger

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

The military certainly advanced to important places related to people's livelihoods, such as power plants and water supply plants, at the first opportunity. In addition, there are likely individuals protecting government compounds and high-end residential areas, but it remains uncertain when ordinary residents will be able to receive assistance

The residents of the community searched all day yesterday but were unable to find the Evolver. They understood that the "expert" did not wish for their identity to be discovered by others, and thus they temporarily settled down.

Lin Xi suddenly threw the chain in his hand, which did not fly in a straight line but swept across, making contact with the ankle. Instantly, it wrapped around several times with a clattering sound, and the large hook at the end deeply pierced into the flesh of the ankle

In fact, giants are not easy to deal with. Their only weak point is the flesh at the back of their necks; other parts of their bodies can completely regenerate even if severed, including their heads. The killing of seven giants was accomplished using a bloody meat hook, which entangled the giants' ankles or calves with its long chain.

By the third day, some had already realized how foolish it was to rely entirely on the government for hope without seizing the opportunity to acquire some supplies, especially food

The street was enveloped in complete silence

The belt at the waist has a buckle, and the dark sword is secured there, allowing for easy access at any time

... ...

I am ultimately not Superman, nor am I a savior... Forget it, thinking too much is useless; in the apocalypse, it is enough for me to take care of myself

The collapse of the building revealed the residents inside, a young couple in their twenties, lying bloodied among the rubble, their fate unknown, as they were grasped by the giant's hand and stuffed into its mouth

If it were not for the critical moment, using the oak shield to block a bit, and the hard leather armor also resisting part of the impact, I fear that with this strike, Lin Xi would have been seriously injured to the point of losing mobility

Lin Xi's face contorted, a cruel smile playing at the corners of his mouth, as he drew the dark sword and charged forward

It is truly an ugly monster

While walking, he would stop to hunt giants, becoming increasingly adept at using the bloody meat hooks. At least when giants appeared alone, they posed no threat to Lin Xi. When encountering a group of giants, he would naturally escape with his exceptional speed.

Currently, the total bioenergy is 1,200 points. Lin Xi has not used any and plans to accumulate more before making an exchange

The flames of anger seemed to scorch his very blood, and his eyes were a deep crimson.

Lin Xi discovered that the giant suddenly stopped its walking, bent down, and looked towards a house, then extended a hand and struck the house.

From her slender body erupted an incredible force, the power brought about by the ancestral virus lineage and gene fusion was fully activated. Lin Xi tightly wrapped the end of the chain around her waist, dragging it with all her might in the opposite direction, much like a towboat pulling a vessel.

This is different from yesterday, when people were going to work, attending school, opening shops, and shopping everywhere. Suddenly, monsters descended, causing chaos

The enormous body, standing 12 meters tall, has collapsed

Hmm?

Damn monster

Regardless of the purpose one may hold, on the third day, there is the courage to venture out from home and arrive at the streets where giants roam. It must be said that these are undoubtedly "men"

Jeans and shirts are common garments in modern society, but it appears as though a vest is worn over the shirt, complemented by a brown leather cuirass, creating a disjointed appearance. Additionally, a deep brown oak shield is secured to the back by a long strap

Give me a fall

There is no fear, no pain, only sorrow

There is someone in the room, and they have been discovered by the giant

There are the Dark Sword, Hard Leather Armor, Oak Shield, and Bloody Meat Hook, which are sufficient for hunting giants

He was struck by a giant's hand, powerful enough to flatten a person into a meat patty!

Today, I have been hunting giants on the streets near the community without taking the time to do anything else. Tomorrow, I will venture a bit further and check out the supermarket.

It is not fear, but anger

One sword, one sword, yet another sword

What significance is there in killing the giant, for the deceased young couple and their infant? The people are dead

Protecting the young is the instinct of all species. Although there is no kinship with this family, witnessing a small infant being crushed and swallowed like food or pastry still stirs an uncontrollable anger within.

Lin Xi fell silent, sheathing the dark sword back at his waist, lowering his head, and erecting the bag of flour like a tombstone in front of the man's head.

Lin Xi saw a giant approaching from the distant street in this direction

Lin Xi let out a sigh

Lin Xi jumped down from the hiding tree and began to run swiftly, holding a bloody meat hook in his hand. In a fit of rage, even with the heavy chains and giant hook, he covered a distance of four to five hundred meters in less than half a minute.

Having hunted down four giants, Lin Xi arrived at the supermarket just as the sun reached its zenith

Then, a large basin hidden under the bed was pulled out by the giant, and inside was a ...! ... a baby only one or two years old!

Eyes that remain wide open after death

Lin Xi severed the giant's mouth entirely, crushing its tongue into strips of flesh, and then with a single sword strike, he cut through the back of the giant's neck, bringing its life to an end

After settling down, Lin Xi quietly reflected on today's battle

Only by that time will social order truly collapse... ordinary people will then experience the desolation of the apocalypse...

In any household, there will be some grains, vegetables, and meat, so life is not considered difficult

When Lin Xi saw the giant pinch the baby with two fingers, bring it to its mouth, open its thick, swollen lips covered in black hair, and bite off the baby's head with its uneven, yellowed teeth, her body could not help but tremble

After resting for a night, as dawn broke with a dim light, Lin Xi quietly departed

In the world of giants, the most common type is the typical species—lacking any intelligence, driven solely by the instinct to hunt and kill humans. The combat power of the typical species is related to its size, with the weakest being the 3-meter giant and the strongest being the 15-meter giant

As night fell, Lin Xi returned home, feeling extremely hungry. He consumed a meal equivalent to three people's portions before alleviating this sensation

The bloody meat hook is placed on the branch beside.

He is currently hiding in a large tree, resembling a hunting falcon waiting to pounce, observing his surroundings

On the streets, one can occasionally see individuals wielding shovels, kitchen knives, axes, and the like. After all, following the appearance of the monsters, on the first day, people were in a state of extreme chaos, and on the second day, due to the lingering fear of being preyed upon by the giants, nearly everyone stayed hidden in their homes

As he picked up the dark sword, preparing to sever his finger, he suddenly noticed the eyes of the man after his death

Moreover, his strength is sufficient to bring down giants

The baby waves its small white hands, seemingly laughing with a "giggling" sound.

However, if an accident occurs, such as being struck by the giant's palm as happened today, it would be very dangerous even for him

The giant lacks wisdom; it remains hidden in the home, concealed within the community. As long as the residents do not make any noise or come too close to be detected by the giant's sense of human flesh, the giant will not actively destroy the walls, damage the buildings, or prey upon them.

This sword does not have a sheath, but there is a slight advantage to wrapping it in cloth. When one pulls the sword during combat, the inertia of the swing allows the sharp straight blade to cut through the cloth, revealing the blade!

Boom

In the face of death, anyone would feel fear, right? Anyone would feel pain when their body is bitten off, right? But in your eyes, why is there only sadness? What are you sad about? Parents, wife, or children?

After obtaining the lineage of the primordial virus, for the first time, Lin Xi felt powerless

Now, almost everyone who is still alive is hiding at home

The head is adorned with white hair, and the face is unremarkable, exuding a sense of weariness. One hand grips a spear modified from a steel bar, while the other clutches a large bag containing 15 kilograms of flour.

It is about four to five hundred meters away from where the giant is located, making it impossible to provide assistance in time

Lin Xi, sitting back on the tree, buried his head between his legs, feeling somewhat dejected. The anger that had surged when he saw the baby being eaten had already extinguished, and his fervor had cooled.

This man in his forties is not an evolved being, but merely an ordinary person

His attire is quite unique

Sensing the movement, the giant turned its head and saw a tiny baby leg protruding from the corner of its mouth, intensifying Lin Xi's fury.

Although his mood remained heavy, Lin Xi regained his spirits. By evening, he had killed a total of 7 giants, of course, these were all of the usual kind. Among them, when he killed the last giant, he encountered a perilous situation due to mental exhaustion and physical depletion.

Eat, I will make you eat, cut off your mouth, let's see how you will eat, damn you!

This point made him somewhat understand that the ancestral virus lineage brought exceptional physical qualities, and when there is a significant consumption of physical energy and self-repair of injuries, the demand for food will also increase

Lin Xi lifted the flour bag, cracked his fingers, and whether it was the immense force unleashed at the moment of death, his fingers sank deeply into the flour bag, and now the bones had stiffened and set in shape. With his strength, he surprisingly could not break it open for a moment.

Blood gushed forth incessantly, the giant's blood, accompanied by high-temperature steam, rose in thick smoke. Amidst the swirling white mist, Lin Xi wielded the dark sword, frantically hacking at the fallen giant, first severing the tendons in its arms, rendering the giant's limbs useless, and then methodically slicing through its thick lips.

The swollen and enlarged belly, the rough and dull skin, the misshapen torso, the short and stubby limbs, the vacant expression on the face—this monster, at first glance, evoked a wave of nausea deep within Lin Xi.

On the road, Lin Xi encountered a man in his forties

Currently, both the tap water and electricity are still usable

After a while, things are likely to be different... The food stored at home cannot last for long. Once the food is gone, regardless of whether there are giants outside or even infectious zombies, under the pressure of hunger, ordinary people will also venture out of their homes

Certainly, there are also those who wish to take the opportunity to plunder valuables

Arrived

However, he is already a dead man, his torso completely bitten off, leaving only a head and two mutilated hands

This individual has a height of 12 meters and is generally considered to be among the upper echelon in terms of strength.

He patiently waited, and when the giant passed by the great tree, he threw out the bloody meat hook

The black sword handle glimmers with a layer of dim light under the sun, while the blade is wrapped in some strips of cloth
