Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1387 Red Ghost
At this time, three automatic rifles fired cross-fire at the target, and bullets rained down on the unknown creature.

The others were waiting for the fire relay and guarding the surroundings. They were scattered on both sides of the captain, maintaining a high level of vigilance and ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

However, bullets have no effect on unknown creatures!

The unknown creature seemed to be angered by the intensive firepower and let out a roar from the depths of the forest. The sound was like thunder, shaking the surrounding trees.

Immediately afterwards, unknown creatures rushed out of the forest.

Its figure is tall and strong, like a moving mountain.

When everyone saw its true face, they all recognized what kind of monster it was. It was because it was too famous in the myths and legends of the island country - a ghost!

Ghosts often appear in the island nation's folk tales and local beliefs.

It is usually described as a tenacious giant with horns on its head, red or blue skin, and holding a golden club.

In modern Japan, "ghost" usually refers to a kind of monster that is very strong and ferocious, like a savage or an orc, which is very different from the Chinese word "ghost".

The Chinese word "鬼" tends to mean "ghost", while Japan often calls ghosts "魂".

The ghost in front of me is none other than the legendary red ghost.

Its hair was disheveled, and its messy hair was like weeds, covered with leaves and dirt.

It had a pair of thick, sharp horns on its head, the tips of which flashed with cold light, as if they could pierce through everything. Its skin was a strange red, as if it was stained with blood, making it look particularly terrifying in the dim forest.

It had terrifying fangs that extended from the corners of its mouth. They were curved and sharp, as if they could easily crush human bones. Its bloody mouth was open, emitting bursts of stench that made people shudder.

Its eyes were like copper bells, flashing with a fierce light, as if it wanted to devour everything in front of it. Its upper body was naked, revealing its strong muscles, and its lower body was wrapped in a tiger skin, which added a bit of wildness.

Its body is tall and strong, more than three meters tall. Every step it takes on the ground makes a heavy sound, as if the earth is shaking.

Its claws were extremely sharp, and the nails on its fingers were like daggers, flashing with cold light.

"It's the red devil, isn't it? Aren't you afraid of bullets?"

The captain gritted his teeth and said.

The sniper at the rear of the team quickly adjusted the angle of his sniper rifle, his eyes fixed on the red demon through the scope.

This large-caliber sniper rifle is his most trusted weapon, and it has never failed in previous missions.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then gently pulled the trigger.

"Bang!" With a loud bang, the bullet fired from the large-caliber sniper rifle shot towards the red ghost like a flash of lightning.

At this distance, the red ghost was hit almost the moment the trigger was pulled.

The bullet hit the red ghost's chest accurately, but it only made the red ghost stagger for a moment, and that was all.

The red ghost just shook its body a few times before it stabilized itself. It roared angrily, and the sound seemed to overturn the entire forest.

"Damn you, I'm going to eat you."

The red demon was furious. There were no guns in the era when it was sealed, so it thought it was ambushed by something, an invisible attack or something.

It brandished the mace in its hand and rushed towards the crowd.

Seeing this, the captain shouted loudly: "Everyone be careful, disperse!" The team members quickly dispersed and looked for cover.

Some hid behind big trees, and some hid beside huge rocks.

The red ghost rushed to a huge rock in one step, holding the mace high in his hand.

It smashed towards the boulder with all its might, and the huge mace carried an overwhelming momentum.

There was a loud bang, as if a thunder had exploded between heaven and earth, and the huge rock was smashed to pieces in an instant.

Countless pieces of gravel flew everywhere like bullets. Some hit the surrounding trees, smashing the trunks into pieces, and the bark and wood chips fluttered down; others fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

The person who was hiding behind the boulder and firing the gun was hit by the broken boulder and flying debris before he could react.

His body was smashed to pieces, blood splattered everywhere, the tragic scene was unbearable to watch.

His limbs were twisted and deformed, and his internal organs flowed out of his broken body, mixing with the blood to form a half-sauce and half-meat state. The corpse was a horrible sight.

The red ghost's eyes lit up, just like a hungry wolf seeing food, with greed and excitement flashing in his eyes.

It stretched out its strong arms, the muscles on which bulged like hills, full of strength.

It grabbed the body that was smashed into pieces and half-sauce and half-meat. Its movements were rough and quick, as if it was grabbing an insignificant object.

It threw the corpse into its mouth and began to chew it.

Its mouth opened so wide that it seemed like it could swallow a car, and its fangs rubbed against each other as it chewed, making a creepy sound, like a dull knife sharpening a stone.

Every time it chewed, blood flowed from the corners of its mouth and dripped onto the ground, forming dark red bloodstains.

“Man, it’s delicious!”

The red ghost ate with relish, devouring the food ravenously, a satisfied gurgling sound coming from its throat.

It has been sealed for who knows how long, and has been hungry for who knows how many years. At this moment, it seems to want to make up for all these years of hunger at once.

There was a kind of madness and satisfaction in its eyes, as if the whole world was left with the delicious food in front of it.

When the team members saw this scene, they were filled with fear and anger.

What is terrifying is the cruelty and power of the red demon. Its terrifying power and inhumane behavior make everyone feel terrified.

What made them angry was the tragic death of their companions. They watched helplessly as their comrades were brutally killed by the red devil, but were unable to avenge him for the time being. This feeling of powerlessness ignited a raging rage in their hearts.

The captain's face turned very ugly. This battle had reached a critical moment of life and death. If the red ghost could not be eliminated as soon as possible, all of them would die.

He gripped the weapon tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning white from the force, and he swore silently in his heart that he must avenge his dead comrades.

And Soma Yukihira and his team have already taken action.

Soma Yukihira's eyes were determined and he exuded an aura of courage and determination.

He shouted, "Leave it to us next, and let your men fall back!"

Kurokiba Ryo burst out with a terrifying speed of 100 meters in 3 seconds and rushed forward to intercept the red demon before he could smash the second soldier to death.
