Stray Chapter 27: Hanging up is the romance of the handicapped

Because the town is close to the sea, the natural scenery is beautiful, and the ecological environment in many places is well preserved, it is not difficult to find a quiet and secluded place.

And Xia Ran has done some homework before, so now it's easier to find a good place for hands-on work. The terrain is very superior. Although it is not easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is really It is suitable for ambush, setting traps, etc.

One more thing is that if something is not possible, it is also very suitable for the ambush party to turn around and run. As long as the pre-determined route is followed, it will be difficult for even parasitic beasts to catch up...

Yutian Shou listened to Xia Ran's introduction to the benefits of this place, and listened to him quickly explaining what to do in the event of an unexpected situation, from which direction and which route to escape quickly... Strategic retreat, and along the way there are What can be used to stop the enemy from pursuing...

Wait blah, blah, blah, blah.

Just listening and listening, this fat man couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. Could it be that this is a real professional? If the roles of the two sides were switched, I am afraid that he would not even have such an idea at all. Even if he ran away, he would at most turn around and run, and would not consider so many complicated issues.

No wonder this high school student can become a parasitic beast hunter, but isn't he still studying before? Why acquire these unnecessary skills?

Naturally, Yutian Shou does not know how many strange things Xia Ran has dabbled in for some reason——

Once he was killed on the battlefield, he specially looked for war-related materials to study; once struggling in the wilderness, he specially went to learn about wild survival...

Although he has forgotten a lot of things himself, the skills and knowledge that he can still remember are the ones he has mastered more deeply. After all, the sinister environment is really training people.

Especially during the previous period, it was impossible for him to fight the parasitic beast recklessly. Even if he used righteous means to backstab, there was also the danger of capsize, and the probability of capsize was quite high.

——As long as there are too many times, there will be no problems, and there will be a day of failure.

Maybe there is no problem with three or two hunts, but if it continues like this, Xia Ran will also definitely roll over, maybe next time... This is also his decision to use his left hand as the price to equip the Because of the special equipment.

But it is precisely because of this that he will carefully plan his way back every time, instead of simply setting a trap and trapping himself in it. Paid in.

He's not so stupid. If the situation is not right, he will still choose to flee immediately... strategically retreat.

Because the attack speed of parasitic beasts is very fast, but the movement speed is not necessarily much faster than that of humans. As long as you keep a distance and are not within the attack range of their tentacles, there is still a high possibility of escaping.

Especially when the full-body parasitic beast is in an attacking stance, it almost stands still. In the original novel, Izumi Shinichi walked slowly with a sharpened metal table leg, and he was able to insert the table leg into the host body of the parasitic beast without any technical content, and hit a fatal blow.

So, Xia Ran's proficiency in selecting ambush terrain, designing retreat routes and other skills has increased quite quickly during this period.

It's just that although he acts so relaxed and casual, Izumi Shinichi on the other side doesn't feel that way at all.

……

……

About ten minutes later.

A high school student is cautiously, tiptoeing through the woods outside the town.

The dead branches and leaves under his feet are like a thin carpet, making a slight clicking sound with his footsteps. The surrounding environment is extremely quiet, and the wind blows from time to time, making the woods rustle.

A drop of sweat dripped from his forehead, and Quanxin held his breath consciously.

He lowered his voice slowly, not knowing who he was asking: "Those two parasitic beasts... where are they now? Are they still around?"

"Just around the corner, and constantly changing direction, not staying in the same direction...Shinichi, I think you should leave as fast as you can right now."

The alienation of his right hand showed the fighting state of a parasitic beast, while still advising him in a calm tone.

Because Ah You judged very rationally, if there is a battle next, his side will have no chance of winning.

“…”

“…”

Quan Xinyi didn't speak. Although he seemed cautious, he couldn't hide the anxiety and impetuousness in his eyes. He couldn't think rationally at all right now. He just wanted to see the results as quickly as possible. Deny the possibility of parents becoming parasitic beasts.

Ayou has no feelings, otherwise, he would probably be furious now.

However, as a species that is completely different from humans, it will not do these meaningless and futile actions, even if it knows that this is simply going to die and dragging itself with it, but it also knows that it cannot change the host's behavior. Now, infighting is useless.

The current bad situation will not get better because of its accusations and scolding, but it will only get worse. So it didn't say anything, just thinking rationally about what to do next is the best choice.

Another ten minutes passed.

Quan Xinyi was already sweating profusely, and his face was slightly pale. Although he did not exercise much, under this situation, he subconsciously held his breath, his heart beat faster, and his pace slowed down. Listen to all directions...

Even if it's useless, Ah You reminded him that it's pointless to do so, except for the rapid exhaustion of physical strength close to the limit, but he just can't control it.

In addition to the unavoidable tension and fear, these factors also consume a lot of energy. The two parasitic beasts on the opposite side seem to be wandering and changing their positions all the time. Even Ah You can't Lock in exactly one direction.

He can only stalemate in this situation, wasting his physical energy and mind in vain.

Unconsciously, and without knowing how much time has passed, the sun seems to have completely sunk behind the horizon.

—Whoosh!

Just when Quan Xinyi felt in a trance, it became difficult to concentrate, and he seemed to be able to fall asleep at any time, there was a sudden sound of wind whistling in his ear!

It looks like something dormant is about to burst into harm's way! At this moment, the air is quickly broken!

Izumi Shinichi, who was in a trance, could hardly react, but subconsciously, he still inexplicably made up for a poisonous snake hidden in a tree, and suddenly launched a surprise attack on himself as he passed by, and his slender body twisted like lightning. A scene of passing through the air...

—Clang!

As if the sound of gold and iron clashing, people can't help but think of the scene where the swords collide under the fierce swing, and maybe there are violent sparks shooting out, which makes Quan Xinyi abruptly. Feeling a tinnitus.

His nerve reflexes couldn't keep up at all, he just heard a swoosh, then the clang of swords colliding, and then the dragging sensation of his right hand, which seemed to be a beat slower.

Because his right hand suddenly danced, as if the arm itself was made of rubber material, with unparalleled ductility, it differentiated into two long tentacles, both of which were nearly ten meters long. Length, the top has alienated a sharp bone blade.

The speed of the dance was so fast that even the afterimage could not be left behind. Izumi Shinichi couldn't see where the attack was coming from. He only felt a strong wind blowing towards his face, but he narrowed his eyes subconsciously.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"

At this moment, a strange shout came from behind, and Quanxin only had time to look back.

He saw a fat man appearing behind him at some point, his face was a combination of clenched teeth and a strange expression on the scalp, obviously looking like he was resisting with fear, but still Forced himself to be very brave and rushed over.

During such a process, the man's chin was rapidly stretched and deformed like dough, alienating long tentacles and a gleaming bony blade.

——This is the second parasitic beast? !

Izumi Shinichi's heart froze, but he could only watch the parasitic beast rush over like this and launch an attack, but he couldn't do anything.

Clang!

It was the sound of the piercing friction and collision of gold and iron again, but at the critical moment, it was his right hand that rushed to the rescue and tried his best to defend, only to be able to block the attack from behind... …

But if it's one-on-one, Ah Youdao can still support a perfect defense, but if it's one-on-two, it's in a hurry.

And the host's condition is already very poor, there is not much energy to continue to supply...

Therefore, although Izumi Shinichi's right hand was able to block the attack from behind, the previous line of defense was naturally breached.

But two seconds later, a fist slammed into the high school student's cheek, causing his glasses to fly up, and his brain felt an extremely strong dizziness, and then he fainted neatly. In the past, lost consciousness.

"Huh?"

Xia Ran retracted his fist, his expression stunned as if he was the one who was beaten. Is this a blind cat touching a dead mouse? Could it be that this guy's own energy and mind have been exhausted to the limit?

It should be, he doesn't think his strength will be this great...but that's fine, just like the plan, Izumi Shinichi has lost the ability to move.

This is also an important part that was decided from the beginning, because Xia Ran is really a little terrified of this kind of creature called "protagonist", especially it is a combat type. Theoretically speaking, they can slaughter gods against the sky with a pig-killing knife, and all difficulties are paper tigers in front of them.

What if I really fought slowly and gave Quan Xin a chance, could I mean that the opponent would suddenly explode and fight back? Xia Ran didn't dare to take risks. He had dragged it on for so long before, just to consume Quan Xinyi's mental energy as much as possible, and then solve the opponent as quickly as possible after the battle.

Izumi Shinichi passed out, but his right hand is still stubbornly resisting...

Unfortunately, due to the crushing strength of the two parasitic beasts on Xia Ran's side, Quan Xinyi's right hand was not able to hold for a few more seconds.

The whole battle was without any danger, and there was not much to say about it——

Because the one in charge of the battle is a parasitic beast, the speed is so fast that even Xia Ran can barely see the afterimage. It's like turning on automatic combat, triggering an animation when encountering a monster, and then deciding the winner.

He didn't do it himself, and he couldn't even see it clearly, so naturally there was nothing worth explaining.
