The blood mist surged.
A helicopter broke through the fog's blockade, appearing in Shen Chuchu and the others' sight.
The helicopter hung a large net full of supplies!
It was gradually moving towards them.
"It's coming, it's coming! Chuchu! Hurry and go grab them! Get as much as you can!"
At the sight of the supplies, Shen Chuchu's mom's eyes turned red as she fiercely pushed her out the door!
Shen Chuchu was scared stiff, hurriedly clinging to the door frame, shouting:
"Mom! You want me to grab the supplies?"
"Of course! Who else would go? It's too dangerous outside, we can't let Xiaotian go, can we? He's our only child! I can't go either, I'm a woman!"
Shen Chuchu was dumbfounded:
"But I'm also a woman..."
"What if you're a woman? I'm your mom!"
Shen Lingtian nodded: "Sis, it's better if you go."
"No! I don't dare go out! There are monsters outside!"
"That's all nonsense, there's no such thing as monsters in this world!"
But just as they were shoving back and forth.
A piercing screech suddenly echoed through the sky!
The fog in the distance surged like a tide.
The next moment.
A gigantic monster bird, comparable in size to a car, broke through the fog!
A screech that trembled the soul!
It dived straight toward the helicopter, seemingly eyeing it as prey!
"Oh my god!"
Shen Chuchu's mom had never seen such a scene, she dropped to the ground in fright.
Shen Lingtian also let out a pig-like squeal, crawled into the bedroom, and locked the door.
Leaving Shen Chuchu alone, standing there, staring blankly.
The helicopter rapidly ascended, trying to evade the monster bird's pursuit.
However, the monster bird was agile, flapping its wings and drawing a curve through the mist, tightly followed.
Ratatatat—
It was the sound of gunfire!
The helicopter spewed tongues of fire, the personnel onboard were fighting back!
But the monster bird moved quickly and dodged nimbly, the bullets couldn't hit it at all.
In the blink of an eye, the helicopter and monster bird vanished into the mist.
...
Lin Lang and Gu Fei stood by the window on the 22nd floor.
Witnessing the life-and-death chase firsthand.
The distance between the helicopter and the monster bird kept narrowing.
Ratatatat—
Even if bullets hit the monster bird, they only sparked off its wings!
"Is its defense that terrifying..."
Lin Lang's heart sank.
Even bullets couldn't penetrate it!
Let alone cold weapons!
As the helicopter entered Xingfu District's range, to lighten the load, even though it hadn't reached the designated drop point, the personnel had no choice but to cut the net carrying the supplies.
Suddenly, a large heap of supplies scattered like raindrops...
But the next second.
The giant bird descended from the sky!
Extending its iron-like talons toward the helicopter!
The bird's claws met the rotor blades as if it were a cutting machine.
Crashing! Crashing!
Sparks flew!
Bang!
The rotor snapped!
The helicopter billowed black smoke, and with a pile of debris, fell from the sky.
Several human figures parachuted out, quickly vanishing into the thick mist.
Boom!
Lin Lang heard another loud noise, feeling the floor tremble!
Then came the crackling of burning.
The sound was very close.
It seemed the helicopter crashed onto the top floor of their building?
From the depths of the fog, the monster bird's cry echoed, gradually fading away, as if claiming victory.
Lin Lang and Gu Fei remained silent.
The surroundings were deathly silent.
...
"You useless thing!"
Inside the low-rent apartment, Shen Chuchu's mom furiously slapped Shen Chuchu's face!
"I told you to grab them, and you wouldn't go! Now all the supplies are gone!"
"What, the supplies are gone?!"
Shen Lingtian rushed out of the bedroom.
"Shen Chuchu! What happened?! Supplies were right there, and you lost them? What can you do?!"
"There was already little food, and now we've missed the replenishment, what will we eat in the future?!"
"Shen Chuchu! This is all your fault, what are you going to do now?!"
"I..."
Shen Chuchu covered her swollen cheek, momentarily speechless.
If the supplies are gone, they're gone, what can she do, run outside to find them?
The fierce image of the giant bird still vividly in her mind.
It's impossible for her to step foot outside!
This is all Lin Lang's fault!
If he had sent the supplies earlier, I wouldn't have been scolded or beaten... No! No! It's not Lin Lang's fault!
This is all that woman's fault—the woman whose silhouette was just barely visible in the photo!
Lin Lang used to listen to me so much, like a dog!
It must be because that woman bewitched him!
Shen Chuchu's gaze gradually filled with hatred, even gritting her teeth as she said:
"Bitch! How dare you steal my man! You will pay for this!"
...
Supplies scattered across the sky.
The plane carrying the supplies also crashed.
Though the transport crew parachuted in time and evaded the attack of the giant bird.
If they landed outside where the Fierce Beasts roamed, the chances of survival were slim...
The battle ended in a disastrous defeat for humanity.
Lin Lang also clearly realized the terror of those mutated creatures!
Ordinary swords, guns, and cannons can no longer threaten them.
Perhaps.
Only those who have awakened with Superpowers can contend against them!
This only made Lin Lang's desire for the Superpower Fruit even more intense!
The blood-red bud on the cactus pot on the computer desk seemed to have grown a bit larger.
At this moment, in the Xingfu District owners' chat group, everyone was incredibly downcast:
[Will we still have supply replenishment?]
[What kind of terrifying creature was that, that it could even destroy an armed helicopter?]
[Sigh, let it all be destroyed, we're exhausted.]
[Please, give us some food! Someone give us some food, we can't hold on any longer!]
[Big shot, please share some supplies, I'm begging you @Lin Bulang]
[Hey buddy, as long as you send some supplies to the property department immediately, we can let go of our previous misunderstandings @Lin Bulang]
...
Group members were crazily tagging Lin Lang again.
But unlike the mockery and insults from the morning.
Their attitude now was nothing if not sincere!
Lin Lang's private messages were even more spectacular!
Countless selfies from women, in various poses, dazzling the eyes.
Among them.
There were even men willing to offer their wives and daughters, just for a full meal!
Absurd, isn't it?
But Lin Lang was not surprised.
The despair after hope shatters is true despair!
The official rescue has failed!
They finally realized, this disaster is unprecedented!
What does supplies mean right now? It's life!
To stay alive, they were willing to give up everything.
Dignity was the first to go!
But Lin Lang didn't gloat in the group—doing so would be too inhumane.
The owners not receiving supplies was a minor problem.
But those official personnel transporting the supplies were heroes; their fall made Lin Lang feel sympathetic...
But!
Sympathy is one thing.
His own life, he should live as he wishes!
He extended his hand.
And pulled Gu Fei into his arms.
"Ah!"
Gu Fei was caught off guard and let out a startled yelp.
"What are you doing?"
Lin Lang's voice was deep:
"It's too scary, I urgently need some comfort."
...
Xingfu District.
Amidst the blood-red fog.
The giant tree branches, blotting out the sky and stretching like the claws of Demons.
The dense grass, as tall as a person, hid who knows how many dangers!
Swish—
At this moment.
A silhouette in a special combat suit was rapidly running through the grass!
"Roar!"
Not far away, a massive one-eyed white cat, as big as a tiger, was frenziedly chasing.
Buzzing—
Suddenly, from the grass, a swarm of red-shelled, black-striped beetles flew out, pouncing on the silhouette.
The silhouette remained calm in the face of danger, quickly drawing a dagger from its waist!
The cold glint flashed, and the bugs were all slaughtered!
The bug's ichor splattered all over her.
"Disgusting."
The silhouette cursed under her breath, removed the filthy helmet, and tossed it away.
Her flowing long hair cascaded down.
It turned out to be a woman!
"Roar!"
The big cat leaped, landing in front of the woman, lowering its body, and continued to roar!
