Chapter 52 Strange Red Light
Nim seemed to have a sense that Luen didn't understand. Just a few minutes after he said he was surrounded, some chaotic roars of beasts began to come from all around, accompanied by obvious signs of activity, which immediately scared the students.
"It's over, we're dead this time!"
The student with an injured arm had already climbed up from the ground. At this time, he squeezed into the crowd and cried: "I don't want to die, why did I encounter such a thing, Dad, Mom"
Hundreds of people were like hundreds of frightened quails at this time. They could only squeeze together in confusion and fear. It was not necessarily that everyone was scared, but emotions were contagious, and the darkness outside magnified these fears several times.
Even Luen felt these emotions and felt a little irritable in his heart. Instead, Nim was unmoved. He just stared at the darkness and suddenly said something shocking: "No, I must stop it, stop that red light!"
He stared at a piece of sky, where there was a light that only he could see. Others, whether ordinary students or Luen, could only see a plain darkness, which was no different from the surroundings.
"What is that red light?"
Lun now has amazing eyesight. He can see things even in the dark. He sees some creatures similar to jackals and hyenas lurking around. There are not many of them, but he still can't see the so-called red light in the direction pointed by Nim.
"I don't know. It looks like a living creature or a phenomenon. I only know that the place where the red light is will soon be filled with those monsters. Luen, I have caused trouble for everyone this time. These monsters are coming for me!"
Nim's expression is very self-blaming. In fact, he still has a lot of things to tell Luen. For example, the few times he entered the dream world, there was always a red light not far away, and then countless monsters began to chase him, and even spread to the real world. Not only him, but also the people around him were sometimes implicated.
Just like the girl he secretly likes, Dai Lina, who sings very well.
But the red light has always been in the dream world. Nim didn't expect that one day he would be able to see it in the real world, and only he could see it.
"Wait, you said there will be countless monsters near the red light?"
Lun suddenly interrupted Nim's self-blame and guilt and asked calmly.
"That's right!"
Nim gritted his teeth and said, "Lun, this has nothing to do with you. It's all my fault. I will deal with these monsters and the red light. Just protect everyone!"
After the words fell, Nim, driven by strong self-blame and shame, rushed into the darkness, but Leng Bufan stretched out a hand and held his shoulder firmly: "Forget it, you are too weak, let me go with you."
Nim turned around suddenly and saw Luen's calm face. He was moved: "Thank you, Luen!"
"Don't talk nonsense, let's go!"
Nim thought Luen was making excuses, but Luen was telling the truth. Luen didn't have such an inexplicably strong sense of responsibility as Nim, and he didn't think he had to protect the safety of these students. In contrast, he had a strong interest in the red light that Nim mentioned.
Red light = monster = material = power, a perfect chain formed in his mind, and he felt that Nim was a rare treasure.
He spent a lot of effort to collect intelligence, analyze and process it, just to find those hidden monsters and evil spirits, but in Nim's case, these monsters actually took the initiative to attack him, so wouldn't it be possible to just follow Nim and wait for the rabbit?
The two of them sank into the darkness without making any sound, and no one noticed. Nim led the way in front, and Lu En was responsible for protecting his safety behind.
"Just walk towards the red light, and all the monsters you meet are mine!"
Lu En was full of confidence. He didn't feel any threat from these mutant wild animals.
"Roar!"
A wild wolf rushed towards them with red eyes, but just when it got within three meters of them, there was a rustling sound in the air, and countless red threads penetrated its body. After a few seconds, it turned into a dried corpse and fell.
Nim's eyes almost popped out, and Luen's voice rang in his ears: "Keep going!"
So all demon hunters are so strong, so scary!
Although the death of these monsters was very miserable, Nim felt happy when he thought of how many classmates died at their hands, and Luen's image became more mysterious and powerful in his mind.
Walking hundreds of meters towards the red light that Luen could not see, the fire behind him gradually became smaller. Luen found that Nim really had some characteristics that attracted monsters. Many beasts surrounding them were attracted and attacked them one after another, or targeted Nim, and Luen was just a by-product.
However, no matter how fierce and brutal these beasts were, none of them could get close to the two of them. Most of them were sucked into mummies by countless blood lines as soon as they approached the three-meter warning line. Their vitality was absorbed along with their blood, which added some attributes to Luen.
So far, the only time Luen had taken action was against an eagle with a wingspan of half a meter. This eagle fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed, and even several blood lines were broken. Then Luen crushed his head and died quickly.
Unconsciously, even the dangers around him were solved by him. Most of the beasts that were eyeing the crowd were attracted and killed by him. The people around the fire could only hear short and shrill screams.
This relaxed and carefree fighting style made Nim very envious. Of course, this was because he did not see the terrifying appearance of Luen's palms showing white bones. Otherwise, whether he would be envious or not is another matter.
"Haven't arrived yet?" After walking a few hundred meters, the fire and voices behind them completely disappeared, and the two were completely shrouded in darkness. Luen frowned and asked.
"Soon--!"
Swish!
Before Nim finished speaking, Luen suddenly jumped forward a few steps, held his shoulder and pulled him to the side. A black shadow suddenly passed through the air, breaking several of Luen's blood lines and falling in front of them.
"It's here!" Only then did Nim finish what he was saying. He touched his head and found that his golden hair was falling off. An unusually smooth cut appeared on his head. If Luen hadn't pulled him, half of his head would have fallen off!
"What is that!"
Nim broke out in a cold sweat. He looked closely and saw a thin, mummy-like monster in front of him grinning at him. It was lying on the ground with four limbs, and sharp bone blades grew on the joints of its elbows and feet.
This was no longer an alienated wild animal, but a real monster!
And it was aimed at the monster that appeared. Luen could feel that the blood line was useless against this monster because it had neither blood nor vitality in its body.
Interesting. They chose such a monster to deal with me?
Although the monster's first target was still Nim, after landing, its murderous eyes fell on Luen. Without any prelude, its figure suddenly disappeared from the spot and appeared in front of Luen almost instantly.
Countless dancing blood threads on Luen's side were cut off and fell to the ground.
