Is this afraid?

Weren't you quite proud just now?

I sneered from the bottom of my heart, but my expression became more serious on the surface. This thing is much more difficult to deal with than I imagined.

Especially its speed, which is extraordinarily fast.

In this case, whether I use a gun or a grenade, I'm afraid I can't do any damage to this strange thing.

How to do?
At this moment, the bug that bounced off just now, once again, rushed towards the two of us.

This posture is not going to let us go.

If you want to solve it, you must think of a quick and effective way.

"Follow my orders!"

I yelled, and regardless of whether Karen agreed or not, I pushed her away, and I was alone with the bugs that rushed towards me.

"What are you doing!"

Seeing that I was unmoved, Karen became even more flustered.

She couldn't figure out why I would do such a stupid thing at this moment.

In my eyes, this bug has already crawled to my feet at an extremely fast speed, with twelve pairs of slender feet, slightly bent, it jumped directly onto my shoulders.

It's surprisingly light in weight.

If I don't see it with my eyes, I can't feel its existence at all.

In the blink of an eye, the bug was out of sight, but I knew it was lying on my back.

Because at this moment, there was a needle-like pain in my back. If I guessed correctly, the twelve pairs of legs of this thing may have pierced into my flesh, and it was climbing towards my spine.

Stab it!

Suddenly, with the sound of being torn apart, I felt a sharp pain in my back.

The pain was so suffocating that I felt like half of my body was incapacitated.

What is this bug trying to do to my spine!
"What are you looking at? Hurry up!"

I quickly yelled at Karen.

"Go!"

Hearing my roar, the woman came back to her senses. In a panic, she rushed forward and grabbed my back.

I know she caught the bug.

but……

hiss--

When Karen pulled the bug out of my back, I felt like my entire spine was going to be ripped out.

I almost knelt down on my knees.

Terrible!

Fortunately, this feeling only lasted for a few seconds. I suppressed the feeling of staring at the stars, and turned to her and said, "Destroy it!"

"well."

Karen looked at the writhing bug in his hand, and stuttered a little.

Somewhat at a loss, she directly tore the bug into several pieces, threw it to the ground hard, and stepped on it several times.

I noticed that when the worm was torn apart, there were still translucent filaments connecting the breaks.

Even after being torn into several pieces, the bug was still swinging its limbs frantically.

However, Karen was finally smart. She immediately opened the backpack and found a ball the size of a thumb. After pressing it hard, she threw the ball away and broke into several knots of worms. body.

A smell of sulfur suddenly filled the air, and then, a cloud of fireworks rose in front of us.

The fireworks were fleeting, and flames appeared where they fell.

Just enough to cover all the corpses of the bugs.

The sound of sizzling kept ringing, and the bugs turned into a handful of fly ash in the flames, but what made people feel a little uncomfortable was that the smell wafting out after burning was actually a bit pleasant.

Inexplicably, I relaxed a little, glanced at Karen whose hands were still shaking, sat down on the spot, and then pointed to my backpack.

"Help me bandage it."

"Uh-huh……"

Although Karen was agreeing, she couldn't help but look at me, and my face turned pale behind my back.

Seeing her performance, I raised my eyebrows.

I don't need to ask, I know that the injury on my back is definitely not optimistic.

But it doesn't matter, I believe in my self-healing ability.

As long as I am not dead, the wound will surely heal.

The monster that blocked our way has been eliminated. Although other monsters can be seen nearby, those monsters did not approach us.

For the time being, it should be considered safe here.

Next, we will get closer to the center of the island, which I believe is more dangerous than here.

So I plan to wait for the injury to recover before continuing to set off.

despair.

Just as I was thinking, I suddenly heard the sound of a lighter. I turned around and saw that Karen was still carrying a bunch of women's cigarettes.

She handed me one and gave me a picky chin.

"smoke?"

"smoke."

Seeing that her hand holding the cigarette was still trembling slightly, I couldn't help but smile, took the cigarette, and lit it.

Tobacco has long been harmless to me.

Right now, I just want to relax.

"You don't want to know what kind of wound that bug caused you."

Karen, with a cigarette in her mouth, said as she bandaged me.

"Ah."

Amidst the smog, I let out a long breath.

If calculated according to the 24-hour system, the water and food left in my backpack can last me three days if I save some food.

In these three days, we have to feel the journey we are going back.

In other words, we still have nearly two days left, and we must find the source of radiation within two days. Our time is running out...

But I can't enter the hinterland of the island while my injury has not fully recovered. This is tantamount to courting death.

For a long while, the two of us sitting opposite each other remained silent.

The fog is getting thicker, and the environment is getting darker.

In this silent world, the only thing we could hear was each other's breathing and our own.

But the most uncomfortable thing is not the feeling of oppression coming from all directions.

But from the bottom of our hearts, the unspeakable panic.

Having experienced so many dangers along the way, the physical fatigue has accumulated to a certain extent.

But no one dared to go to sleep.

Because here, once you close your eyes, you may never be able to open them again.

"call……"

Four hours later, I felt that the injury on my back was almost healed, so I stood up and stepped on the backpack again.

Seeing this, Karen was also ready to start again.

Relatively silent.

I took out the radiation source locator and took a look, and the displayed image was still the same.

Immediately, we moved on to the next destination.

During the journey of more than three hours, we didn't see any monsters except for the occasional strange noises around us.

This can't help but make Karen and I feel a little weird.

But as we were still a few hundred meters away, we arrived at the location of the previous camp.

We finally saw a group of monsters in the thermal image.

Yes, a bunch!
