After killing Nick, the seven or eight Brain-Pecking Beasts roared continuously, as if they couldn't vent their anger just like that.
Bailin and Reed, who had hidden in the small building, peeked at the Brain-Pecking Beasts outside through the cracks in the wall. They were extremely nervous, suppressing their heartbeats to be extremely low and slow, for fear of attracting the attention of these bloodthirsty monsters.
"It'll be okay. It'll be okay..." Reed tightly gripped the hilt of his sword and kept praying in his heart, "The Bright God is above. Please protect your people... The Brain-Pecking Beasts don't eat zombies. They won't find us."
Roar! Roar!
The herd of Brain-Pecking Beasts lost their target and wandered around the street angrily. Their smooth tails, like snake scales, whipped the ground, making a cracking sound.
Seeing that the Brain-Pecking Beasts didn't enter this small building, Bailin and Reed's tightly tensed hearts got a little relief, but they still didn't dare to relax and secretly prayed that these Brain-Pecking Beasts would leave here as soon as possible.
In this suffocatingly tense moment, suddenly, a sharp whistling sound rang out and flew through the air towards the small building.
Bailin and Reed were startled. Their hearts were filled with alarm, and they almost ignored this hunter who had been hiding in the dark.
"Damn it!!" Bailin heard the sound of the arrow shooting into the small building. Her fingers clenched into a tight fist. The anger towards Dudian in her heart made her whole body tremble. But she still retained a trace of reason. She quickly locked the direction from which the arrow had been shot, picked up a stone on the ground, and thought, You want to lead them here. Let's see whose sound is louder, yours or the one I throw!
Whoosh!
She quickly stood up and then crouched down, and the stone in her hand had been thrown out.
With a bang, the stone hit the small building opposite. She aimed very accurately, and it happened to hit a glass window, making an especially clear sound!
The seven or eight Brain-Pecking Beasts on the street heard the commotion and immediately looked in this direction. The next moment, they roared and pounced over.
However, to Bailin's surprise, almost all of the Brain-Pecking Beasts pounced towards the small building where they were!
"This..."
There was no time for her to think. This three-story small building quickly collapsed under the impact of the Brain-Pecking Beasts.
Bailin and Reed, who were hiding in the small building, fell rapidly.
Bailin reacted extremely quickly. The moment the small building collapsed, she took advantage of the force and quickly jumped out of the nearby window, landing on the street on the other side. She rolled over and got up, and then ran away without looking back.
Reed didn't have time to jump out and collapsed along with the small building. A stone hit his tall nose, and blood immediately oozed out from the scratch.
This bloodstain was like a sign. The blood-red eyes of the seven or eight Brain-Pecking Beasts immediately locked onto Reed in the pile of rubble, and they roared and pounced over.
"No—" Reed's face was filled with horror. He waved his sword to intimidate them, but he was instantly knocked down by the Brain-Pecking Beasts. With several splashing sounds, one of the Brain-Pecking Beasts raised its head, biting Reed's upper body in its mouth. The internal organs and intestines fell down from the torn part of the ribs, and blood splattered to the side.
At this time, the Brain-Pecking Beasts that hadn't had time to share the food saw Bailin who had jumped to the side and immediately roared and chased after her.
Bailin's face turned pale. Even for her, if she was surrounded by so many Brain-Pecking Beasts with a hunting level of 15, she would surely die!
She turned around and ran, throwing away all the things on her that she could discard, including some precious monster materials that she had hunted before.
Roar! Roar!
The herd of Brain-Pecking Beasts roared and chased after her.
After they left, a figure jumped out from the ruined small building opposite. It was Dudian. He glanced at the pool of blood in the collapsed small building, and his face changed slightly. He felt a bit nauseous. This was the first time he had witnessed a monster eating a person. He could almost feel how terrified the young man was when the monster bit his upper body.
He withdrew his gaze, looked at the thick pile of stones beside him. The arrow he had shot in and the blood plasma bag tied to the arrow were all pressed underneath, and he could only give them up.
He looked at the two backpacks that Bailin had discarded. One was bulging and exuded the smell of various monsters. It should contain the more valuable materials from the monster corpses that Bailin had collected. The other was her living supplies backpack. If the first aid kit hadn't been light, she would probably have discarded it too.
Dudian picked up her living supplies backpack, found a few pieces of remaining dry rations in it, and immediately chewed and ate them. During these three days of searching for monsters everywhere, he had hardly eaten anything and had been so hungry that his hands and feet were weak.
While he was eating, he suddenly smelled the smell of blood on Bailin. His heart moved. He didn't expect her to be injured so quickly. It seemed that the group of monsters he had painstakingly found were indeed powerful.
"It's better to kill her directly." Dudian thought to himself.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that Bailin's scent had faded a lot. To be precise, it was mixed with other scents, and those strong scents that covered her scent were full of a foul and fishy smell. This strange smell made him involuntarily think of a place, the sewer!
She had run into the sewer!
Dudian squinted his eyes slightly. Judging from the scent, those monsters had stayed on the street outside and hadn't gone in. Most likely, they were too large in size to squeeze in.
"I can't rely on them anymore. I still have to rely on myself." Dudian's eyes flickered slightly. He didn't expect that even after attracting so many ferocious monsters, he still couldn't kill Bailin. The survival ability of an intermediate Hunter was indeed extraordinary.
He didn't rush to chase after her because he smelled that Bailin's scent had gradually slowed down after she entered the sewer. It seemed that she had also realized that the monsters hadn't chased after her, so she was taking the opportunity to recover her strength.
"Now that she's prepared, it's difficult to succeed with an ambush, a sneak attack, and a shot. Moreover, the trick of diverting attention has been used once, and she probably won't fall for it a second time!" Dudian frowned tightly. Things had become difficult again.
In a one-on-one confrontation, he had no chance of winning. The method of sneak attack was also difficult to succeed. Was this really the end of it this time?
"Unless my archery skills can be improved further. With an ambush and a sneak attack, I can kill her with one arrow. Only in this way can I be sure. Otherwise, if she blocks it, within a short distance of a hundred meters, she can quickly rush over and kill me!" Dudian bit his fist and lowered his head, deep in thought. "It's not something that can be achieved in a short time to improve my archery skills. Even if I improve the bow and arrow and use spiral arrows to shoot, it's useless. If the arrow speed isn't fast enough, she can still deflect it!"
"It would be great if there were guns."
"But after three hundred years, the guns in the police station have long since decayed. Even if I find them, I don't dare to use them. I'm afraid that instead of the bullet being fired, the gun will explode and injure myself."
"Hmm?"
Dudian suddenly had an idea. "Guns can't be used, but the bullets might still be useful. The gunpowder in the bullets can be gathered together to make a bomb!"
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but get excited. The guns in the police station all had special storage rooms, and the bullets were of utmost importance and were stored very carefully. If the bullets were still in the room, after three hundred years, there was a high possibility that the gunpowder in the bullets was still usable!
With this thought in mind, Dudian immediately took action and started searching for the police station along the street.
