The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 199 Lost Companion
"Om-"

Suddenly, it was as if a string in his head was broken, and the continuous tinnitus made Gao Yang unable to think or feel.

In his blurred vision, he could only see Can Can's pale and desperate tearful face, and saw her crying and pleading in fear and helplessness.

"I don't want to become a talisman corpse, I don't want to become a man-eating monster..."

Finally, the voice came back slowly. Gao Yang's palms were covered with sweat, but he did not tighten the dagger.

"Can Can, your injury doesn't look like a bite. Don't be afraid..." Gao Yang stretched out his left hand and put it on Can Can's shoulder, trying to comfort her.

Gao Yang hoped that Can Can would not lose control of his emotions because he wanted to ensure that he would not make a mistake in judgment.

Whether it is a loss of control due to fear or a precursor to corpse transformation must be carefully distinguished.

"Really?" Can Can's mood calmed down a bit.

"Really, believe me." Gao Yang felt that he was a shameless liar who wrote bad checks randomly, but he had no choice.

"Okay, I believe in the captain. I, we will definitely be fine, we will definitely leave here safely..." Hope rekindled in Can Can's eyes.

"When I get out, I want to play games... No, I won't play games anymore. I want to strengthen my training. I must train well. I will never take advantage of others. I will become stronger. I will never hold anyone back. Already..."

Gao Yang forced a smile: "Then you must keep your word."

"Yes! I promise to do what I say!"

Can gave a weak smile.

Immediately, her smile disappeared, and the false hope in her eyes also dissipated: "Captain, I feel uncomfortable, my chest is a little tight, and I feel a little dizzy..."

Gao Yang was shocked and said nothing.

Can Can blinked slightly, his face getting paler: "Captain, can you give me a hug? I'm really, really scared... I don't want to, I don't want to die here alone..."

Gao Yang hesitated, the can in front of him looked so pitiful and helpless, but Gao Yang was afraid that the next second, she would turn into a terrifying talisman corpse and bite her own neck off in one bite.

After two seconds of hesitation.

Gao Yang leaned forward, stretched out his left hand, and gently held the can in his arms.

He held Can Can's head with his left hand and put her face against his chest, controlling the angle to ensure that he could control her head the first time she transformed into a corpse.

At the same time, he slowly raised his right hand, ready to pierce the girl's chin and reach her head from bottom to top at any time.

"Captain, thank you, I feel much better..."

"..."

"Captain, you know, you are actually my type, but I know you won't like girls like me, who are not good-looking and have no femininity..."

"..."

"Moreover, I've done a test and it says that I have an avoidant attachment personality... If the person I like also likes me, I won't like him, so captain, don't like me, hehe, so that I can always I like the captain..."

"..."

"Captain, I'm not afraid anymore, let's do it."

Gao Yang's heart twitched hard, and the hand holding the dagger became loose.

He took a deep breath, concentrated slightly, concentrated highly, and waited quietly.

Three seconds passed.

Ten seconds passed.

30 seconds passed...

Until one minute passed, Gao Yang still didn't make a move.

Can Can was a little confused. She slowly raised her head and looked at Gao Yang: "Captain, you..."

"Five minutes have passed already." Gao Yang whispered, "I have been listening to your heartbeat just now, and it has not stopped or accelerated significantly."

After Gao Yang finished speaking, he pinched Can Can's chin: "Open your mouth."

"what--"

Gao Yang didn't see anything abnormal, so he opened her eyelids and looked at her. There was no change in her pupils. He put his hand on her forehead. There was no sign of fever, and she was even a little cold.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it will transform into a corpse.

Gao Yang was completely relieved: "You weren't bitten."

"Eh?" Can Can was stunned for a moment, in disbelief, "I really... wasn't bitten?"

"No." Gao Yang looked firmly: "It must have been scratched accidentally."

"But I'm really dizzy and I'm not feeling well..."

"You have hypoglycemia." Gao Yang guessed: "You are too thin."

"Yeah, I have hypoglycemia."

Can immediately reacted, and she quickly took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket: "I still carry chocolate with me, just for fear of fainting. How, how could I forget everything..."

"I'm throwing it away!" Can Can's face turned red for a moment. She threw away the candy and covered her face with her hands: "What did I just say! Oh my god, I'm going to die, I can't live anymore..."

"Stop shouting, be careful of attracting the talisman corpse."

Gao Yang picked up the chocolate on the ground, tore open the wrapping paper, "Open your mouth." "Ah." Can Can opened his mouth obediently.

Gao Yang threw the chocolate into her mouth, stood up, and stretched out his hand to her: "Welcome back to the team."

"Uh-huh!"

After a false alarm, Can Can felt a sense of relief and joy that she had survived the disaster. Her eyes were wet and red. She smiled and grabbed the captain's hand and stood up.

Gao Yang and Can Can walked out of the room. Hei Que was observing at the door the whole time. She finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Gao Yang and Can Can: "It's fine as long as it's okay."

"Haha Can!" Hui Xiong happily walked over and rubbed Can's hair: "You almost scared my uncle to death!"

"Hehe." Can Can lowered his head and smiled sheepishly: "I almost scared myself to death!"

Manshe's face was still expressionless, and his eyes were not as sharp as before. He walked to Gao Yang and took back his own dagger.

"Welcome back, team." Ronnie was also very happy for the can.

"Where's Xi Ran!" Can Can pretended to be angry: "Humph! I heard all your conversation outside just now! Xi Ran still loves me the most!"

At this moment, Xi Ran was still standing by the window, holding the window edge with both hands, seeming to be deep in thought.

Can Can ran over happily, "Xi Ran! I'm fine! Don't worry!"

Gao Yang grabbed the can and pulled her back hard, "Wait a minute."

Gao Yang felt something was wrong. Xi Ran should be happy for the can, but his reaction was too calm, even indifferent.

"Xi Ran? Can you hear me?" Gao Yang shouted softly.

"Yeah." Xi Ran replied dully, but still didn't look back.

"Xi Ran, the can is fine, it's just a false alarm." Gao Yang took two steps forward, but still kept a distance of three meters from Xi Ran.

Everyone else's flashlights were shining in the direction of Xiran.

"Ah, I just heard it. That's great."

Xi Ran slowly turned around. His face was extremely pale, his whole body was soaked with sweat, and dark brown marks similar to mildew appeared around his eye sockets.

His originally fair and gentle face became depressed and decadent.

"Canned, welcome back to the team." Xi Ran tried his best to force out a smile, and a stream of nosebleed flowed from his nostrils, soaking his white shirt.

"No, that's not true..." Can Can's eyes widened, tears already welling up in his eyes.

Xi Ran wiped away the nosebleed and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm just a little dizzy. It's probably low blood sugar. I just need to rest..."

Xi Ran walked towards everyone, and everyone started to back away.

"Xi Ran." Gao Yang shouted to him sternly, with pain in his eyes, "Don't move."

Man She walked to Gao Yang and took out a short knife: "Xi Ran, I'm sorry, I will be quick."

"Manshe, what are you talking about..."

Xi Ran looked helplessly at Manshe, but he could no longer see anything. His eyes seemed to be melting rapidly, and with two streams of thick blood flowing out, soon there were only two empty eye sockets left.

Red veins spread up his neck and quickly covered his entire face.

There was a gurgling sound coming from his throat and he was still talking, but you had to look carefully to make out what he was saying.

"We, we are companions...companions cannot give up companions...comrades..."

"Roar!"

Xi Ran's remaining humanity disappeared. He opened his mouth full of blood and rushed towards Gao Yang.

"brush--"

Manshe's short sword was unsheathed, a sharp sword flashed by, and Xi Ran's head flew out.

Xi Ran lost his head, and his body rushed forward, hitting Gao Yang's chest. His broken carotid artery spurted out large streams of blood, which instantly dyed Gao Yang's clothes red.

Gao Yang remained motionless, just pursed his lips and closed his eyes.

Two seconds later, Xi Ran's headless body slowly knelt down in front of Gao Yang, and finally lay in a pool of blood.

"Xi Ran!" A can's crying voice appeared in my ears.

Then came the mournful cries of Ronnie and Gray Hero.

Xi Ran died at the feet of Gao Yang.

The boy's familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

——"My name is Xiran, Xibianxi, Burning Ran, hello, captain."

——"When I was in elementary school, I wrote an essay called my mother. I have been dependent on my mother since I was a child, and life was not easy."

——"Probably I will never know what Lin Mengjuan is in this life."

——"Cans are our companions! We can't give up our companions!"

"Om-"

The damn tinnitus is here again.
