Byron's Blade

"Heh...hoo...heh...hoo..."

The rapid panting echoed in Mu Li's own ears, and the screams of monsters behind him and the sound of breaking branches were almost inaudible.

Her army green figure flitted quickly in the jungle, and the dead branches and rotted leaves under her military boots were carried away, like riding the wind, and her body was as light as a swallow.If someone can measure her speed at this moment, she will be surprised to find that her speed has reached 72 kilometers per hour. What kind of concept is this?Converted into a second speed, that is 5 seconds for 9.58 meters, far surpassing the world record of 1 seconds for the human 3-meter sprint before the catastrophe.Even now, this speed is horrifying, because she is not equipped with a powered exoskeleton at all, and she is running entirely on her own muscle strength, and in the forest with complex terrain, she is constantly dodging various potholes Surface and blocking branches.This speed has lasted for [-] minute, and she has run at least [-] kilometers. The steel heart is like an engine, and the oxygen consumption is also frighteningly large.

No, I can't run anymore, I have to find a way to get rid of this guy, if it doesn't work, I can only do it hard.Just as this idea came to Mu Li's mind, he suddenly saw a big tree, so he jumped up, grabbed the thick trunk protruding from the big tree with both hands, swung his body like a horizontal bar, and squatted on the branch.

The speed of the monster behind him was also extremely frightening, but it was thrown down 300 meters by Mu Li abruptly, but this guy has a keen sense of smell, and this distance is not enough to get rid of it.Before Mu Li squatted on the branch to catch his breath, this guy kicked him up, reached Mu Li's height with a light jump, and the sickle slashed over.Mu Li smacked his mouth, thinking that this guy is really annoying, then stretched himself up and jumped up another tree like a civet cat.

But this monster chased after him again, with a pair of sickles hooked on the branches, it was able to climb like an ape, Mu Li himself was half dead from jumping between the branches, but he still couldn't shake it off, Mu Li was convinced This monster simply jumped down from the tree, turned around, opened its fighting stance, and planned to have a good fight with this guy.

Seeing that Mu Li actually stopped, the monster stopped attacking, held a pair of scythes, lowered its body, and stared at Mu Li motionless, reminding Mu Li of a brother who practiced mantis boxing that he had met once.The hand/gun in Mu Li's hand has run out of bullets, and the damage of this hand/gun is limited. The monster in front of him is covered in copper skin and iron bones, so he can only scratch it.But she didn't throw it away, but kept it close to her body. After all, it was a fast iron bump, and it was better than nothing, and she could still take it out and throw it away at critical times.

"Target, data search." While confronting the monster with tense nerves, Mu Li voice controlled the id on his wrist to search for the monster's data.

After scanning the monster with the helmet, the information came out quickly, and Mu Li took a quick look at the monster, knowing it in his mind.

Praying mantis-shaped predators, the weakest ones are at the first level, and the powerful ones can reach the double s level.The legs are muscular, and they have extremely strong explosive power when jumping and running. The whole body is wrapped in pitch-black hard armor, which can only be broken by armor-piercing bullets.It can be regarded as the most eye-catching type of predators that Mu Li has seen so far.The body is not very big, it looks a bit like a human with arms turned into sickles, with long forearms, a pair of diamond-shaped eyes on the black head, which looks a bit like amethyst, and the mouthparts below are a pair of fangs, ferociously stick out.

This guy has an unparalleled neural response ability, so bullets are generally ineffective against it, and only under intensive artillery fire can it be injured or disabled.Its vitality is tenacious, and it takes a lot of strength to kill it completely.This guy can actually swim, and the speed at the bottom of the water is not inferior to that of a shark.Weakness: Fire.

"The weakness is fire? Are you fucking kidding me?"

Mu Li really wants to scold her, where is she going to start a fire now?With her shirtless posture, she almost caught up with the kamikaze!Mu Li didn't think he could beat it, this guy was even more like a fighter than himself.

It would be great if... I could have a knife in my hand, Mu Li regretted it at the moment, the wild is so dangerous, no matter what the situation is, he should be equipped with a weapon.It's a disgrace for a soldier to be without a weapon.

Time passed by, Mu Li was confronting the monster like this, the temperature in the forest was only 3 degrees at the moment, Mu Li was wearing thin clothes, but dense beads of sweat were already oozing from his forehead.She adjusted her breathing, calculating in her mind how to fight this guy.Praying mantis-type predators usually attack from behind, and it is not a problem for Mu Li to delay time with it. She is very worried about the situation at the gate of the city, so she decides to make a quick decision.

She suddenly rushed forward three steps, coming within the range of the sickle attack.The monster really moved, the right scythe suddenly slashed horizontally, Mu Li immediately lowered his waist to dodge, his body was almost parallel to the ground, the scythe brushed past her clothes, and brought a gust of cold wind.Seeing the sickle swiped across, the left sickle immediately cut across again, this time at a lower position.Mu Li supported the ground with one hand, exerted force on her waist and abdomen, jumped up with her legs, twisted 360 degrees in the air, and the sickle cut across her body.

Mu Li swayed in the air, lifted his left foot, and kicked the monster like lightning, hitting the monster's shoulder. The monster was kicked sideways by this powerful kick, but it didn't suffer any damage.Mu Li crouched on the ground, his left foot was already numb.The monster seemed a little frightened by the incomparable swiftness of the man in front of him, so he didn't continue to attack for a while.

Oops, how should I fight this?After a short trial just now, Mu Li has already assessed the ability of this monster. It is impossible for him to defeat this guy with his bare hands. The lethality of his fists and feet is too low.

Mu Li's attention fell on the monster's sickle, and he suddenly had a calculation in his heart. He used that spear to attack the other's shield. If he had no weapon, he borrowed it from the enemy!

Mu Li licked his somewhat dry lips, and a dangerous smile appeared on his face under the mask. It seemed that he was about to take a risk, and he might lose limbs and disembowel, but it was worth a try.

Crouching on the ground, she jumped up suddenly, and rushed towards the monster like a cheetah.The monster screamed angrily, and slashed at Mu Li with a sickle.Dodging the attack of the right scythe that came first, Mu Li ignored the barbs and sharpness on the scythe, and hugged the scythe with a roar.The monster's right sickle was suddenly restrained, and it immediately swung the left sickle to chop.Seeing the timing, Mu Li suddenly stepped on the left scythe that came back from the monster, jumped up sideways and used the force to swing his body, and jumped onto the monster's back with the monster's right scythe.

The monster's right sickle was folded to the back, and only the sound of broken teeth could be heard, the monster's right sickle was broken abruptly by Mu Li's strange power.But the muscles wrapped in the leather armor are still connected, but the bones are broken, which doesn't help.It began to struggle desperately, Mu Li exerted all his strength to press the monster's right sickle on its back, straddled the monster's back, and hugged the monster's back tightly, the sickle was caught by her Pressed down.The monster started to spin desperately, trying to throw her off, and the left scythe also reached towards the back, almost cutting down on Mu Li several times, but she avoided it in a thrilling manner.Even so, there were still several bloody cuts on her body.

Entangling, bumping, jumping, running, spinning, rolling, no matter how the monster tries to get Mu Li off his back, this person is like being stuck to his body with super glue, and he can't get rid of it at all.But Mu Li is not easy at all, the monster's struggle has already left her covered with scars, her whole body is either cut or hit, or scratched by a branch, even her head was hit and almost twisted neck.At this moment, she was dizzy and almost couldn't hold on anymore, she was holding on completely with one breath.

Finally, the opportunity she had been waiting for came.The monster has been mad for so long and is also tired, the attack power of the left scythe weakened, Mu Li saw the timing, and suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the left scythe, with the blade pointing down, and stabbed fiercely at the joint of the monster's right scythe.The monster seemed to realize what Mu Li was going to do, the shrill scream almost pierced Mu Li's eardrums, the left sickle also changed its trajectory, and was about to break free.Mu Li roared at the top of his throat, exerting all his strength, regardless of the bleeding from his hands, and finally controlled the left sickle.Just hearing a "click", the monster's left sickle cut into its own right shoulder joint.

"Pfft!" Blood spewed out without any money, and Mu Li was drenched with blood, and finally slipped off the monster's body, and the monster's right scythe slipped down with her, this big killer was completely destroyed. Breaking away from the monster's body, it was completely severed.

Mu Li fell to the ground gasping for breath, his whole body was numb.And the monster was mad with pain, rolling on the ground, blood was still splattering, temporarily not in the mood to attack Mu Li.But Mu Li knew that she had no time to breathe. She struggled to get up from the ground, picked up the right sickle of the felled monster, and weighed it. It weighed about 10kg. The blade was partly curved, about 1.2 meters long and [-] centimeters in diameter It's a bit rough in the hand, but manageable to grip.Holding the sickle in both hands, she roared again, and rushed towards the monster with big strides...

"I'll let you open the city gate! Bastard!" Sistine's roar echoed at the gate of Ares.

"No, this is an order from the officer to close the city gate. Without an order, we cannot open the gate without authorization." The city guard officer was a middle-aged man with a big beard, and his pair of triangular eyes looked very sinister.His face was expressionless, no matter how angry Sistine grabbed his collar, he had no intention of giving in.

"Executive order?! Who is your officer? Creel? You, Caral, aren't you a dignified Ares garrison colonel. Who else can order you?! Ah?!" Sistine was furious.

"Yes, it was the order of Major General Creel. He asked me to close the city gate and wait for rescue."

"Fart! Let me tell you, Caral, that the most beloved daughter of General Friesman is just outside the city and is in danger! Are you ready to accept the wrath of General Heptagram?"

However, the Colonel Caral was not moved at all, and simply did not say a word.

Sistine was so mad that he ran away, pulled out the gun at his waist and pressed it against Karal's forehead, gritted his teeth and said:

"I let you open the city gate!"

At the same time as he made this movement, all the soldiers of the garrison around him raised their guns at him and surrounded him, and the atmosphere was suddenly tense.

"Major Sistine!" At this moment, Captain Chrissy's voice sounded. She walked into the encirclement with steady steps, raised her hand, and slowly pulled down the gun that Sistine pointed at Caral's forehead, and said softly:

"Major Sistine, calm down, I have something to tell you."

Karal glanced at them, raised his hand and waved, and the surrounding soldiers put away their guns.

Sistine glared at Caral with a ferocious face, and was dragged aside by Chris reluctantly.

Chris said: "Major, listen to me, there is a conspiracy here, I believe you can see it too. Now, the garrison has restrained all of my third squadron, even if we fight them here, we can't afford it." There is no benefit. To save people outside the city, we must think of other ways."

Sistine let out a long breath and said, "Then tell me, what should I do?"

"They won't open the city gate unless they open it, but the helicopter you brought over is still there. Try to find a way to use the helicopter to save people." Chris said.

"This is not feasible, as you have seen, my helicopter is now being impounded by them. Even if I can drive the helicopter out of the city to save people, what if these bastards blow us down with one shot? I am afraid that they look like this already It's not that you can't do it if you have a vicious heart." Sistine said.

"So we have to wait." Chris said.

"Wait? Wait for what?"

"Wait for Major Creel to come."

"Are you stupid? We have also contacted Creel, but his ID can't get through, and he obviously got involved, so it's unbelievable! What's the use of waiting for him?"

"Major, it's because of this." Captain Kris suddenly slipped a small black box into Sistine's hand.

"Signal jammer?" Sistine raised an eyebrow.

"I have already sent someone to disassemble these things secretly. We are all within the range of the signal shielding. When the signal is cleared, it will be clear whether Creel is an enemy or a friend. Moreover, if such a big thing happened, he must They will rush over, and when the time comes, let Major General Creel join us in a helicopter rescue, and those people will never attack again."

"How can you be sure that they won't attack again? Also, will he agree? This is a risky matter, after all he has no obligation..." Sistine's expression changed in the middle of speaking, as if he suddenly wanted to understand What's the matter, shut your mouth.

Chris bent the corners of her lips and said nothing.
