[Extra 18. Brave New World (6)]
“No, don’t! I won’t go out… Devil, I don’t know anything!”
The little boy curled up and covered his ears with his hands, as if he was frightened.
He didn’t dare to look at Joyner’s face, and kept shaking his head, and soon started crying again, “It’s the devil! The devil is coming, it’s the devil’s voice!”
Joyner couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows, thinking that he was I was talking about myself, after all, some of the prisoners also said similar things. He immediately said coldly, “Why do you say I’m a devil?”
“Light, no light! It’s you… you attracted… the devil!”
“Light? I attracted…?”
Joyner was stunned. , with a stern look on his face, he immediately concentrated and held his breath, but did not hear any sound. He immediately turned off the headlights, and the surrounding area fell into darkness, but he still didn’t notice any movement.
She seemed to be inspired by his words, but she was curious if the little boy knew how wrong he was?
What this kid said is absolutely crazy. What on earth is going on?
Joyner suddenly remembered a symptom she had heard of before – post-traumatic syndrome. After some people are seriously injured and threatened, their mental state will be on the verge of collapse and they will fall into various neurological and anxiety disorders.
She immediately understood that maybe these people were overly frightened when they were captured by the bandits, or they had seen something terrible that caused them to be physically and mentally traumatized, and then they were in a trance by the giant hemp grass used by the bandits. Will go crazy from time to time.
But this is just Joyner’s speculation, and the explanation is far-fetched. We still can’t tell what the truth is, so we might as well try it out again.
Joyner reached out and touched the little boy’s body, trying to calm him down, but a shiver ran down her spine. Her mouth suddenly felt dry and her fingertips tingled.
Her super senses came into play. Joyner felt like something was staring at her, and the hairs on her back stood up.
Is this fear? maybe.
Or maybe, just maybe, this is a sign. Something is going to happen.
A few seconds later, some green shimmer emerged from the abandoned building wreckage.
what is that?
Joyner turned back alertly, while the little boy behind her broke free from the rope and got into the pile of debris behind the cab in fear.
“Uh-huh, ow–“
A low, strange sound like thunder drew her attention back. It seemed to be the sound of something hiccupping.
And this sound actually appeared behind the truck, probably only a few hundred meters away from the truck. It was obviously caused by the green shimmer in the dilapidated building, or in other words – it was simply the two sides echoing each other!
“Is there anything else in the wilderness? Bandits or refugees? Or wild beasts wandering in the wilderness?”
Joyner’s heart suddenly sank.
She kept guessing and shaking her head.
This feeling is so strange. It turns out that the prisoners in the truck were telling the truth. There are even more unexpected threats and horrors in this world!
Joyner suddenly turned her head and asked the little boy behind her: “Is this voice… the devil you mentioned?”
In front of this woman who seemed calm but was actually equally nervous inside, the little boy’s eyes seemed to flash with a trace. The light of reason.
He nodded quickly, vigorously and resolutely.
From his eyes, Joyner finally confirmed something.
⑧ьOOk. cΟm
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here. No matter what it is, it won’t hurt you, I promise.”
She didn’t know why she said that, after all, she didn’t even understand the current situation.
Maybe it was to establish a closer relationship with this boy, maybe it was to eliminate the atmosphere of fear that permeated the room, maybe it was because of some special sense of mission and responsibility, maybe it was just the look in the child’s eyes.
No matter what, Joyner felt she had to keep everyone safe.
“Be careful…” the little boy spoke again. Compared with children of the same age, his voice was slightly deeper, but it had an indescribable magnetic flavor.
“Oh, it’s light…well, I know.”
Joyner finally understood what he meant. Whatever was out there, it must have been the light that attracted those beasts.
She still clearly remembered that the night before, when the convoy of these bandits stopped, she did not see any bonfires or lights in the wilderness. This must be the reason.
Joyner pulled out the nozzle from her leggings, and a cold feeling spread throughout her body.
But she hesitated, then put the gun back, took out a half-meter-long machete from her waist, held it tightly in her hand, then quietly opened the car door, jumped out, and gently closed the door.
She had moved quietly. Although she didn’t know what she would see, she had a hunch that she had to confirm it with her own eyes.
Because the thing in the dark is already coming this way.
She slowly approached the ruins of the building on the hill and looked around. She was still surrounded by darkness. Although her eyesight has been improved dozens of times that of ordinary people due to genetic modification, and she can distinguish the outline of objects at night, her nerves are still highly tense.
Because the green shimmer she saw was hidden in the center of the ruins in front of her.
Behind a broken wall, Joyner held her breath, cautiously stuck her head out, and her body suddenly shook!
Her mind had forgotten everything else at the moment – blood, horror, and fear. Only the image of those tall black figures remained in her mind, and it would linger for a long time after this moment.
She saw a total of three or four “people” standing like hills among the ruins of the building.
Their appearance and bodies are a horrific mixture of human and animal, the likes of which have never existed in the world and should never exist!
They were hunched over, with long manes and some tattered human clothes on their bodies. They were all giants, and they were estimated to be two and a half meters tall when they stood upright.
The green light is exactly what their eyes radiate.
They have deformed heads and powerful jaws. It seems that the strong teeth in their mouths can easily bite through trees. Occasionally, these things would land on all fours like wild beasts, wandering in a small area, moving extremely slowly, as if they were looking for food in the ruins.
What an incredible monster!
A gust of breeze blew by, and Joyner hurriedly covered her mouth and squatted down, fearing that the other party would find her immediately due to their sensitive sense of smell.
This visual impact is so shocking!
Joyner didn’t dare to express her anger and walked carefully while bending down. For some reason, she suddenly thought of the giant man in Sand Bandits, and suddenly she trembled. A thought came to her mind – could these guys be mutated humans?
Thinking of this, she began to feel extremely uneasy, and her stomach began to twitch faintly.
She didn’t want to know the cause of the mutation, but she could figure it out with her toes. If she wanted to change the body structure in a short time – only radiation could be so powerful.
After she was some distance away from the ruins of the building, her feet immediately accelerated and she ran towards the truck.
Everywhere he looked, a new wave of fear arose.
