Invade the World Chapter 38

  Chapter 38 "Scared" and "Reliable"

  The humanoid monster like a Yaksha was silent, like an emotionless machine, following Lin Xingjie's command, reaching into the chest of the person lying on the ground, quickly and accurately grabbed the worm's tail.

  This scene reminded him of a skilled butcher who was digging out all the internal organs and large intestines from the belly of a broken-in livestock.

  Although this scene did not happen on the physical level, it was not too bloody, but it looked strange enough...

  Next, a thick black mist rose up all over its body, pulling the worm out of Shi Hui's body little by little.

  Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie are already familiar with the appearance of this worm, the former even experienced the feeling of being possessed through "telepathy";

  But when they really have the opportunity to witness the body of the worm and stand in a position where every detail on the winding body can be seen clearly, they will still feel...wholesome uncomfortable.

  By the way, the two began to exchange their feelings about insects.

"I am more afraid of bugs like slugs or snails. No, it should be'disgusting' to be more accurate," Xu Xiangyang said. "I remember one time when I was a child, I accidentally bumped into a tree while climbing a tree. A slug, it feels really unforgettable. I felt sticky and slippery on my fingers for days."

"I hate centipedes that are relatively hard and have a lot of tentacles. I crawled around on the ground. When I was young, I was scared to walk around when I saw it. Mollusks hate maggots because they always pour leftovers. Next to the trash can and the public toilet, and every time they appear, they are entangled in a big pile..."

  Lin Xingjie said that afterwards, even she herself felt a little unbearable and shivered with her arms.

  Xu Xiangyang sighed.

   "But, this thing is different."

Yes, the appearance of the worm is different from the arthropods and molluscs mentioned above; in other words, it is often mixed with the appearance characteristics of several insects, and the visual impact is doubled, which is simply called it. A creature born in a nightmare.

The scenes Xu Xiangyang saw in his telepathy were black and white, and the scenes were rather blurry. The sounds he heard and the things he felt seemed to be separated by a thick layer of frosted glass. I think what happened in the haunted house is weird.

  Think about it now, they actually want to swallow this stuff into their mouths, this is really...Xu Xiangyang doesn't want to think anymore.

   The fat and bloated worm body wriggled and struggled, and it looked "fatner" than he remembered; it opened its mouthparts surrounded by short feet and screamed silently.

Shi Hui, who was lying on the ground, also let out a scream.

  What he has to face is not just the pain that stays at the physical level, because his body, whether it is at the physical level or the spiritual level, has actually gradually merged with the alien.

  Even Yan Mingjun, who has not been able to fully integrate, loses consciousness after the worms leave the body and becomes no different from a vegetable. Shi Hui's results will obviously only be worse than the former.

  The process of separating him from the worms and monsters by Xiao An is almost like pulling the consciousness and soul away from this human body, and what is left is the dead flesh with only a little instinct and the remains of consciousness.

And this withdrawal process is also truly reflected in the physiological level: after the worm leaves Shi Hui's body, this guy is like a leaky ball, and his skin relaxes, as if a rapid rush occurred at that moment. Aging, at first glance, will only make people feel like a skinny old man.

   "Crack, click."

  The humanoid monster picked up the illusory bug in one hand, and a dark hole suddenly appeared in the center of the robust body covered with scales. Inside, there was a high-speed swirling vortex.

  It will squeeze the struggling insects into it; soon, the endless turbid current emerging from its body completely swallows the prey.

……it's over.

it is finally over.

  Lin Xingjie waved her hand, and the humanoid monster disappeared into the air silently.

  There is no thrilling battle, only one-sided killing, ruthless and cruel uprooting, and devouring full of greed.

  In the whole process, Xu Xiangyang forced himself not to turn his eyes, the expression on his face was tight, and even his neck was as stiff as it was solidified in plaster.

  Whether it is ugly, horrible, or even disgusting, since it was the scene created by his best friend, he felt that he had the obligation to watch it from beginning to end, and then learn to accept it.

  Where did this sense of responsibility come from? He couldn't even tell him. Just instinctively feel that it should be so.

Lin Xingjie also said nothing. The long-haired girl stood beside him at the door, quietly watching the weird "drama" come to an end.

   "...Okay, I'm leaving."

  After a moment of silence, Xu Xiangyang blinked his slightly sour eyes, and said so.

"Ok."

  The girl nodded gently.

  The place selected by Lin Xingjie was a relatively remote compartment in a deserted hospital building. It was some distance from the old warehouse where the first signs of damage appeared. Obviously, she did not choose it randomly.

  Xu Xiangyang saw only a police car approaching. At this moment, the police should be led by the hospital security to inspect the scene. They won't search this ward so quickly.

However, it may not be necessary to say how abundant time is. The two need to leave before the people in the hospital assemble and carry out a large-scale search, otherwise they will be found that they are staying with the "victim". It is impossible to be suspected.

  The most important thing is, how should the two of them get out? Do you go through the back door like you did when you came? I always feel like I have forgotten something...

  Xu Xiangyang was thinking, and suddenly noticed with sharp eyes, Lin Xingjie's body shook slightly for a moment.

  He suddenly stunned, rushed forward, and held the girl's delicate arm in time.

  When the girl saw Xu Xiangyang approaching, she subconsciously showed a relieved smile. At the same time, she completely gave up her intention to continue to support her body, and she leaned into the boy's arms softly.

  Yes, every time Lin Xingjie uses her superpowers for a long time and more intensely, Lin Xingjie's stamina will be consumed violently. At this time, she can't even walk alone for a period of time.

  If it is just to deal with a Shi Hui, Lin Xingjie may not need to expend too much effort; but trying a brand new ability is not within her control.

  The beautiful and picturesque girl with long hair fell in her arms, but Xu Xiangyang didn't have the heart to feel the tenderness and beauty. He looked at his friend's pale cheek, his eyebrows that were slightly raised because of his weakness, his heart seemed to be picked up.

  "Are you stupid?" Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but cursed, "I know I have this weakness, so I even ran over to test my new ability alone."

   Lin Xingjie blinked, was scolded but did not feel angry, just smiled and replied:

   "That's why I'm in the hospital... I plan to say that I am anemia after I finish my work, and I will go to the doctor for a bottle of glucose."

  At the end, she also added:

   "Actually, I have gradually adapted to this load recently, so I won't fall down immediately. Before I stop using the ability, I will ensure that the surrounding environment is safe."

  Xu Xiangyang has nothing to say.

  He was actually dissatisfied with Lin Xingjie's hiding from himself, but he was a little embarrassed to speak directly; he wanted to find an excuse, for example, to criticize the girl for not being careful enough, but at the moment she seems to think very well...

"rest assured."

  Lin Xingjie did not look up, but buried her face in his chest.

  "It won't happen in the future. If I encounter problems in this area again, I will tell you the truth, and I won't act alone."

  Her voice is muffled, but she can hear the seriousness in her tone.

  "—Absolutely not."

  Xu Xiangyang sighed.

   "Forget it, I'll talk about the next thing later. I'll take you away first."

  Xu Xiangyang supported Lin Xingjie, walked slowly across the corridor, down the stairs, out of the gate of the hospital building, and into the deep night.

   "Did you come in from the main entrance?"

   "At that time, I was afraid of being noticed by the people blocking the door, and turned the back door."

   "Huh? But I now..."

   "Yes, you can't run right now." Xu Xiangyang said deliberately, "So for the time being, I have to take you to the outpatient building for an injection, and wait until your body recovers."

"no, do not want……"

   Lin Xingjie subconsciously shouted.

   "I'm fine, just rest for a while!"

   "Could it be that you are afraid of injections?"

   "It's not afraid." Lin Xingjie muttered, clutching Xu Xiangyang's sleeves with both hands, and quietly pressing his slightly hot cheeks on the boy's arm, "...I just think it's a waste of time."

  Hearing such words, Xu Xiangyang knew that he was right, and couldn't help laughing.

  "Don't worry, I'm joking. The police are here now, and you will be exposed if you bring you to the doctor. I can't take this risk."

"That--"

   "I have my own way."

   Xu Xiangyang replied.

   Seeing his confident expression, Lin Xingjie stopped asking.

  The night is becoming more intense.

  The two walked silently on the dark forest road for a while.

  The wind blew the branches and leaves of the trees on both sides, and the "rusty" sound of the dense leaves colliding with each other, sounded like the sound of tide from afar, and the two of them seemed to be trekking along the coast.

"Hey you……"

   Lin Xingjie's tone still sounded hesitant.

"Ok?"

"What do you think of my new ability?" She asked softly, "No, so much as'new ability', it's better to say that it is Xiao An's essence? I feel that the reason why it was born in this world is Specially to bring fear to people..."

  "You are still asking about this." Xu Xiangyang replied somewhat helplessly, "I said, as long as you are willing, it is okay to rely on me to draw nutrients."

   "You are stupid, you have seen the fate of Shi Hui, so you still say such things?"

   "That's because the monster possessing him was pulled away, so that he became that ghost."

  "This does not rule out the danger of this ability," Lin Xingjie's expression became serious, "So, you don't want to mention this in the future."

  "Then don't ask about the topic just now."

  Xu Xiangyang's counterattack was very neat.

   Lin Xingjie opened her mouth, trying to say something, but when she reached her mouth, she turned into a sigh.

   "I didn't promise you just now, I won't lie to you anymore. I will definitely say something like this in the future."

   "Then why are you asking?"

   "But, I still hope to take your mood into consideration." Lin Xingjie shook her head, "Do you really feel scared? It's like the first time I saw Xiao An—"

  Xu Xiangyang looked into the eyes of her friend, her face rarely had an extremely serious expression. After thinking about it, he honestly admitted.

   "It's a bit scary to say. The first time I saw Xiao An, didn't I just fainted?"

   "I just said..."

   "However, it's only a little bit. Then when I think that you are in control of everything, it doesn't matter, I just feel very reliable."

"……real?"

"real."

  Hearing the boy's decisive answer, Lin Xingjie finally relieved herself and let out a sigh of relief.

  It was only then that she was surprised to find that her face became so hot and hot. She felt ashamed, and subconsciously pressed her face on the other's arm tighter, not willing to see her red face.

   However, Lin Xingjie quickly realized one thing: her face has become so hot, but it is pressed against other people's arms, it must have been noticed by now?

  She couldn't help but raised her eyes quietly, wanting to see the other person's expression. Is this person laughing at himself, or is he not aware of anything?

What was reflected in the girl's pupils was the young boy's tight, serious face. He was looking forward without squinting his eyes, as if unaware of everything around him, he took the two of them forward together... …However, the earlobes that turned red like a fever faithfully reflected the true feelings of the owner.

  Lin Xingjie suddenly wanted to laugh, but she also followed the way of a friend, tightening her lips, pretending to not see it, but holding the arms of the young man in her arms tighter, and followed step by step.

  The sound of waves in the forest surrounds Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie who are walking in the night. At this moment, there seemed to be only two of them left in the world.
