Killing America Terror Starts at a Fatal Turn

Chapter 179 “Famine” and the Second Coming of Christ

Phoenix Edge.

The loss of locusts that flew past the plane was not even a drop in the bucket compared to the number of the entire swarm.

The black cloud of locusts was not affected at all and flew towards the city without stopping. When they saw a large number of unsuspecting prey, the locusts excitedly pounced down. No moving creature on the ground could escape the locust swarm. Gnaw.

The evolved locusts have extremely sharp mouthparts and can easily bite through human skin and gnaw on the fresh flesh and blood.

A large number of locusts cling to and bite humans and animals. The ones in the front come down contentedly when they are full, mate with other locusts and lay eggs. There are more hungry locusts in the back, patching up the wounds that have been torn open. Eating with convenience.

The locusts eat at the flowing mat buffet very quickly, and an adult can finish it in less than ten minutes. Of course, they only eat flesh and blood, but they can't chew the bones.

For a time, the entire community fell into chaos and madness.

People fled into the building one after another, looking for shelter. Those who could not escape were even swept up by a large number of locusts and flew into the sky. Then they fell and fell to the ground during the struggle, unable to endure the bites of the locusts.

In just a short time, these locusts had produced at least hundreds of smooth white bones.

However, the official mentality of Phoenix City is not comparable to that of New York in the comics. No matter how many big troubles occur, the police will not be upgraded to equipment.

After experiencing several major turmoils, the entire Phoenix City, even the poorest district of Mialco, has replaced its guns with guns and prepared a lot of weapons and equipment to deal with all kinds of strange enemies.

The police department also received funding that was several times higher than in previous years, recruited a large number of new police officers, greatly strengthened the police force, improved police welfare and benefits, and regularly trained police officers on how to respond to various emergencies.

Of course, this only happens in Phoenix.

Who makes this place so troubled?

People who were relatively safe indoors called the police and described the tragedy to the police.

Upon hearing that the enemy was a large number of locusts, the police immediately followed the plan to deal with a large number of small enemies, put on airtight and tough clothing, picked up flamethrowers and other equipment, and began to go out to drive away and kill the locusts.

The locusts were burned to death by the flames. Only a few fell on the police officers, but there was nothing they could do with the fully sealed protective suits.

At the same time, the troops stationed outside the restricted area of ​​​​Tvina District also began to move.

For safety reasons, and in order to prevent these locusts from being used as a plan by the enemy to divert the tigers away from the mountains, they retained all the extraordinary people and only sent out 1/3 of their mobile troops, who put on protective clothing and also carried flamethrowers.

Although these locusts are large in number, have strong bite power, and have abnormal reproductive abilities, if they were in ancient times, it would not be a problem to directly destroy a country.

But this is fucking modern.

After experiencing the initial chaos, except for the first group of people who died, most humans have calmed down.

The troubled people of Phoenix City have rich experience in encountering such sudden attacks. They are just bugs. They can't even open a big iron door. They are no better than a big and thick demon that smells of sulfur, or shouts "yes yes" "The crazy running rat-men are terrifying.

The airtight cement buildings that can be seen everywhere prevent locusts from entering. Even if a small number of insects get in through the ventilation openings, they will be beaten to death one by one by the frightened people.

Without a huge numerical advantage, these locusts are no different from ordinary bugs.

The position at the top of the human food chain can only be achieved with one knife and one shot. When it comes to how to kill efficiently, these locusts are not even one-tenth as powerful as the terrifying erect ape.

Before Luke arrived, the situation in the city was under control. Driven by flamethrowers, the locusts began to flee randomly, trying to fly into the air to escape.

At this time, another piece of special equipment carried by the police also came in handy.

Dragon Breath Bullet!

Although the dragon's breath bomb has extremely high lethality at close range, the magnesium particles it contains are too small, and the distance it can fly is extremely limited. The effective range is greatly reduced, and it has no actual tactical value. It has always been disliked by both the military and the police. It is only circulated in a small circle of enthusiasts.

When designing the special plan, its great power, portability, and especially the universal damage bonus of flames to dark creatures immediately hit the hearts of the police leaders.

Under the alternating attacks of dragon's breath bombs and flamethrowers, the number of locusts dropped rapidly. Soon, about one-fifth of the locusts were wiped out.

As if some mechanism had been triggered, all the locusts began to shrink rapidly. Even the insects that were still chewing on flesh and blood simply put down the delicious food in their mouths. Their wings flapped rapidly at a frequency that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye and flew into the sky.

The police and the people stationed in the army looked up. At this time, if there were single-shot powerful weapons such as individual rockets, they would be able to achieve significant results. Unfortunately, the target was a locust swarm, so they did not carry them.

Several policemen immediately called the police station and requested heavy fire support, while the rest found a place to hide, constantly observing the changes in the insect swarm.

Soon, the locusts flew to an altitude of several hundred meters, gathered together, and turned into a huge black sphere.

A burst of black light emanated from the invisible core. A large number of peripheral locusts instantly lost their activity and fell from the sky. More locusts continued to compress inward, seemingly evolving from stragglers into a whole.

Not long after, a monster riding a dark horse that looked like an ancient European knight strolled out from the locust swarm. All the remaining locusts seemed to have exhausted their vitality and turned directly into black and yellow dust, floating in the air.

Luke returned from outside the city and saw exactly this scene.

Is this just in time for the second phase of the BOSS battle to transform?

Luke muttered in his heart. Before he could fly over, the people below could no longer hold back.

Previously, we were dealing with dense swarms of insects. Extraordinary abilities were not as good as fire. The extraordinary people stationed in Phoenix City did not contribute much. In addition to rescuing people, they spent more time fishing. People holding flame launchers were the main offensive force. .

But the black knight flying in the sky in front of him didn't look like something that ordinary police officers could deal with with a flamethrower.

Most extraordinary beings don't seem to have the ability to attack enemies from long distances. A few physical abilities people casually removed railings, iron balls, etc. from their side, and used them as hidden weapons to throw at the knight. Unfortunately, he was extremely agile, and he was able to kill him with just a few swings. Those flying props were avoided.

There were also a few mages who looked like they were trained by the Flame School. Their casting speed was a bit slow. It took two people a long time to create a "secondary fireball technique".

On the other hand, there was another person, who must have been born with a stronger soul. He learned the "Fireball Technique". After half a minute of guidance, he finally condensed a fireball the size of a basketball.

When the fireballs, one large, two small and three, flew into the sky, the locusts had already condensed into knights.

The Black Knight dodged a few times to avoid the impact of the fireballs, but soon the three fireballs continued to chase him under the guidance of the mage's spiritual power.

The spear in the knight's hand flashed, passing directly through two "secondary fireballs" and exploding them. Another basketball-sized "fireball" flashed past the tip of the spear, hit the knight directly, and then exploded instantly. open.

Before the mage could be happy, a black halo of light opened from the center of the explosion to all sides, like a black hole, absorbing all the high-temperature flames of the explosion, revealing the unscathed knight inside.

Then, the knight clamped his legs together, and the black horse jumped rapidly in the air, moving his four hooves to charge towards the mage.

The black horse was extremely fast and arrived at the mage's side in just an instant.

The physical ability user teammate on the other side of the mage rushed over in time and tried to help him block the knight's impact. However, in the middle of the rush, his legs suddenly weakened and he staggered. He watched helplessly as the spear in the black knight's hand penetrated the mage and killed him. He picked it up.

The mage was still struggling, the black knight's body flickered with light, and a strange attraction was transmitted to the mage's body through the gun body.

The struggling mage suddenly became motionless. In a matter of seconds, his body changed from flesh and blood to an old and withered corpse. He slipped from the tip of the spear and fell to the ground.

Luke, who was belatedly arriving, rained down from the sky with magma raindrops all over the sky, covering all the knight's escape paths. The attributes of the black knight were also discovered by Luke during the dive.

[Apocalypse: Famine]/[Locust Incarnation]

The mutated and out-of-control locust swarm attracted a wisp of Apocalypse's will to famine, which was condensed into an incarnation under external stimulation.

【Skill】

[Desolation Halo]: Use the power of famine to absorb the energy of all life within a certain range with itself as the center of the circle. The absorption speed is related to the strength comparison with the enemy and the enemy's state.

[Riding]: When attacking while riding a mount, the individual and the mount will be regarded as a whole, and their attributes will be superimposed on each other.

[Will of the Swarm]: Famine can summon a large number of extraordinary locusts and drive them to attack the enemy.

[Killing Evolution]: As it kills lives, Apocalypse Famine will project more of its will and continuously enhance the incarnation's ability, which can be increased up to 5 times based on the initial form.

In the blink of an eye, Luke was already approaching "Famine" with a thunder gun in hand, and faster than him was the rain of fire summoned in the sky.

Under Luke's control, the drop-shaped magma dragged its thin tail towards "Famine". Before it got close, the energy in it was weakened by the [Desolation Halo], losing its previous blazing temperature, and hit "Famine". "There was a "sizzling" sound on the dark armor, but it didn't cause much damage.

Magma heat energy is also absorbed!

Luke saw that the separated magma rain failed, and with a thought, he gathered the scattered lava together to form a sphere, following behind him.

Sure enough, this way the resistance to [Desolation Halo] is greatly enhanced.

As he entered the range of the halo, Luke also felt his own energy quietly draining outwards. Although it was not much, he did feel uncomfortable all over, and the amplitude of Halpier's wings was also reduced.

But under the inertial impact, he still locked onto the opponent at extremely high speed and rushed straight away.

The mount under the Black Knight "Famine" dodged past with unimaginable dexterity. As he passed by, several lenses fell from Luke's body.

He did not hold back the spear in his hand, continued to attack at high speed, and thrust the spear forward again.

The tip of the gun and half of the gun's body were submerged in the mirror in front of him, pierced out from the lens that had just fallen, and went straight into the black horse's belly.

Luke exerted force on his upper arm, pushed hard, and pushed the thunder spear inward. Then with a thought, the spear that was submerged in the horse's belly disintegrated and exploded, turning into blue and white thunder again, raging inside the black horse.

The black horse's forelimbs were raised high, almost standing upright. "Famine" was still sitting firmly on its back, showing no sign of being thrown off.

But no matter how good his riding skills are, he can't drive a dead horse.

There was already a football-sized wound on the upper body of the horse, and an even bigger wound deep in the soft abdomen. There was almost no good piece of meat damaged. After standing up for a short time, it fell heavily to the ground and dissipated into pitch-black dust.

As soon as the first wave of offensive stopped, the follow-up attack immediately struck.

A large ball of magma rushed toward the black knight. Oh no, it was "famine" for the black warrior now.

After losing his mount, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and his mobility was obviously impaired, and he had no time to dodge.

In the critical situation, black light burst out from his body, and [Desolation Halo] was turned on to maximum power, trying to lower the temperature of the magma. At the same time, the spear in his hand was also covered with black light, and it was pierced towards the center of the magma mass.

The temperature of the surface layer of the magma dropped sharply due to the energy absorption, and it lost its dazzling orange color and became dull. However, as the spear pierced the magma mass, a large amount of molten rock poured out from inside, and part of it climbed toward the " Part of "Famine"'s hands, under Luke's control, turned into a surge of fire, instantly engulfing him.

Luke drove Harpie to make a sharp turn in the sky, and turned around again menacingly. At this time, the weapon in his hand had turned into the most convenient decapitation axe.

This ax is not easy to use against agile players, but it is not very comfortable against large beasts or controlled enemies.

On the ground, "Famine" used extraordinary energy to resist the invasion of magma, and at the same time used [Desolation Halo] to continuously lower the temperature of the lava. In desperation, the aura was overloaded, and the magma around his body cooled instantly, then solidified, turning into a basalt The stone prison trapped him inside.

Before he could use any force to break free, Luke had already arrived on Harpie, and swung the giant ax with great force, neatly decapitating Famine's head.

"Famine" was severely injured, but he only resembled a human being. Even if he lost his head, he still retained a certain ability to move and was not completely dead.

As the head falls, the power of [Desolation Halo] instantly drops to the minimum.

Luke jumped from the air and activated the inner magma, causing a large amount of lava to erode inside along the wound.

The decapitating ax in his hand also directly hit the head. No, the black knight has no head.

Cut it directly into the neck.

The sharp ax blade coupled with Luke's vigorous slashing with both hands was so powerful that it split the black knight "Famine" in half from the middle.

This time, even for non-humans, it is fatal.

"Famine" turned into ashes like his mount, and the ability tree absorbed the experience.

Luke was about to turn around and leave when an inaudible voice came from the place where "Famine" disappeared.
