Chapter 82 The Hunt
Without the slightest hesitation, Meng Bin lunged to the side.
"boom--!"
A terrifying explosion resounded inside the house, its power amplified in the confined space.
"Bang!"
The black-robed man was thrown back by the shockwave and crashed straight into the wall.
"puff!"
He rolled to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of black blood from inside the snake-face mask, which dripped down the mask.
The black blood dripped onto the ground, but instead of splattering, it writhed like a living thing, extending tendrils of blood.
Meng Bin, who was in the corner, stood up and glanced at it, a look of disgust and loathing in his eyes.
"Sir, are you dead or not?!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than there were several more sounds of something rolling down.
An extreme sense of threat came from all directions. Meng Bin cursed and squeezed into the corner, crouching down with his hands on his head.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The wild wind howled across the wasteland outside the old house.
"Clang! Clang!"
The crisp sound of metal being cocked was clearly audible across the wasteland.
Lin Ye set up his sniper rifle and aimed it at the old farmhouse ahead; the dark muzzle of the gun was ridiculously large.
A painful scream drifted to my ears as the flames from the explosion in the courtyard gradually faded, leaving only agonizing wails.
"Squeak!"
The courtyard gate opened, and a figure rushed out, his body charred and bleeding, followed by more than a dozen figures groaning in pain.
"puff!"
With a dull thud, his entire upper body vanished instantly, along with several other people in a straight line who simultaneously lost parts of their bodies.
The wall behind them trembled, scattering rubble and creating a hole.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Several corpses fell to the ground, motionless.
The one who miraculously survived lost his entire right arm and half a lung, and it was clear he wouldn't live much longer.
The pain came belatedly; he collapsed to the ground, letting out a weak, agonizing wail.
Upon seeing this, the others screamed in terror and fled into the house.
On the wasteland, the sound of metal being cocked rang out, and a shell casing emitting white smoke was ejected.
"null!"
"null!"
"null!"
Several bullets were fired in succession, and the old house in the distance collapsed halfway with a loud "bang".
For the past ten minutes or so, the people inside the old house tried to escape, but they were killed by incoming bullets the moment they stepped out of the yard.
Even if several people run away in different directions at the same time, it won't help; it will only delay their death by a few seconds.
Ten minutes later, Lin Ye fired again, smashing a guy who was lying on the ground trying to escape.
The wilderness became quiet, with only the howling wind.
The calm lasted for about ten minutes when the old courtyard gate in the distance suddenly burst open with a loud "bang".
A dark figure rushed out from inside, moving at an extremely fast speed.
However, he did not run away, but instead ran wildly towards the front of the courtyard gate.
"Clang! Clang!"
Just as the bullet was chambered and he was about to fire, Lin Ye let out a soft exclamation.
Then he took out a pair of infrared detection glasses from his backpack and put them on.
Although he has weak night vision, everything looks pretty much the same, so it's not as accurate as an infrared night vision device.
Looking at the running figure, there was not a trace of red in the field of vision.
Dead body.
This is a dead person.
A few seconds later, the dark figure suddenly collapsed and lay motionless on the ground.
A few minutes later, another dark figure rushed out of the yard.
Lin Ye couldn't help but smile; the red was too dazzling.
"null!"
"puff!"
Almost simultaneously, the sound of bullets exploding rang out, and the upper half of the dark figure exploded.
The wilderness fell silent again. After a while, Lin Ye counted the number of people. He realized that twelve people had just been killed.
However, the number of people accidentally wounded by the first shot is uncertain, so the accuracy may not be accurate.
Just as I was thinking this, my ears suddenly twitched, and I rolled violently to the left.
At the same time, a burly figure rushed out of the courtyard.
Lin Ye rolled to his feet, unleashed a burst of energy with both hands, lunged forward, and grabbed a small black snake less than a foot long with his bare hands.
"Hiss~~~"
The small black snake hissed in pain, its two black fangs exposed, and black hairs growing from the gaps in its scales.
"Sizzle—"
Two streams of venom spurted from the fangs, and Lin Ye dodged them by tilting his head.
The black venom fell to the ground, making a corrosive hissing sound.
Seeing this, Lin Ye narrowed his eyes, exerted force in his hand, and directly crushed the black snake into a pulp.
With a flick of his wrist, the black snake's corpse flew away, his hand, enveloped by the shockwave, remained spotless.
Looking ahead, Lin Ye took off his infrared night vision goggles, twisted his neck, and his whole body vibrated with energy.
Although it wasn't a long time, he really felt like it had been a long time since he had fought against a master of earthquake-level strength.
He really needs a satisfying battle right now.
"Ah~~~"
He stretched his body and looked straight ahead.
Suddenly, I paused, stunned.
What about people?
He glanced around and quickly picked up the infrared night vision goggles and put them on.
Far behind the old house, only a small, moving red dot could be seen appearing and disappearing.
Lin Ye took off his infrared goggles and picked up his sniper rifle to aim.
"null!"
A bullet pierced the night sky, and a few seconds later, the person in the distance cried out "Ah!" and fell to the ground.
Ok?
Lin Ye looked at the sniper rifle in his hand. "Am I that good at shooting?"
Just as I was thinking this, a sense of threat suddenly came over me.
Without hesitation, he gripped the sniper rifle and slammed it directly to his right side.
"puff!"
A black object was smashed into a puddle, but it was still writhing and twisting.
"What is that?"
He crouched down, took out a bottle of high-energy kerosene from his backpack, and poured it onto the black object.
The black object extended tendrils that enveloped the kerosene, emitting a sucking sound.
"Boom—!"
Sparks flew from the flint and landed on it, and it burst into flames in an instant.
"Hiss—Hiss!!!"
The hissing sound came from the black object, gradually becoming sharper, as if it were leaking air.
After a while, the fire gradually died down. Lin Ye stepped forward and crushed it; it had already burned to ashes.
The flames, exceeding two thousand degrees Celsius, will kill any demon or monster.
With his sniper rifle slung over his shoulder, Lin Ye strode toward the courtyard.
Stepping into the courtyard, a strong, sweet, and pungent smell was mixed with the metallic rust smell that had gotten wet.
"suck--"
I took a deep breath and felt no discomfort whatsoever; on the contrary, I felt somewhat excited.
It's like a fragment hidden deep in your genes has been activated, establishing a real connection with the world, giving you a feeling of truly being alive.
"Lin Ye, you were born that way."
The muttering abruptly stopped, and Lin Ye's gaze turned to a wooden floorboard in the courtyard.
Walk up close, squat down gently, grasp the pull ring, and pull it sharply.
"Die!"
With a roar, the man in black robes rushed out of the tunnel, raising a dagger high in his hand, its dark green gleam, and thrusting it toward Lin Ye's throat.
But the next moment, a cold touch appeared on my forehead, preventing me from moving any further.
"Bang!"
A wisp of white smoke drifted away as Lin Ye casually wiped the splattered blood from his face.
Ignoring the corpse, he casually pulled it out and tossed it aside, then turned slightly to look into the depths of the secret passage.
It's a tunnel that runs horizontally through the tunnel.
After a few seconds of thought, he put away his tactical pistol and took out several high-explosive grenades from his backpack.
Pull out the pin and throw it in forcefully; the pick pops open, making a "ding" sound.
After doing all this, he quickly retreated and leaned against a broken wall.
"Boom—!"
