Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 328 Strange Deer
20 minute later.

The aftershocks of the nuclear explosion have ended, but on the outskirts of the mountain city, buildings whose structures were destroyed are still collapsing.

The power went out, plunging the entire city back into darkness.

Lin Yu led the scouts back to the ground. At this moment, in addition to the howling wind between the buildings and the sounds of collapsing buildings, what terrified them even more was the howling of those shadowy monsters that resembled evil spirits on the edge of the mountain city.

"These monsters have gone out of control."

Lin Yu said in a deep voice:

"The shockwave from the nuclear bomb disrupted the beacon's control over them. What did the Chinese military call that again?"

"Electromagnetic pulse?"

"Yes, electromagnetic pulse."

The scout answered in a low voice.

"It's really useful. Now I completely understand why those Chinese soldiers look down on us."

"Not to mention their ability to use nuclear weapons, the kind of attack they launched is simply unbelievable."

"They had never been to the mountain city before, but in such a short time they learned how to control it."

"If they bomb like this every day, or even every few hours, they probably won't even need to invade; this city will be completely destroyed sooner or later."

"uncertain."

Lin Yu shook his head and said:
"Nuclear bombs can only hit buildings on the ground."

“Look, if the two of us can survive hiding downstairs, then we can imagine how much more likely we are to survive in the core areas that are actually underground.”

"They will eventually have to find other ways."

"But it's okay, they'll definitely find a way."

At this point, Lin Yu pointed to the park in the distance and said:
"But we don't need to worry about that for now."

"There are no lights over there. Let's hurry back and find some food!"

"clear."

The scout nodded immediately, and the two of them darted out of the building one after the other, heading straight for the park along the deserted streets.

When Lin Yu actually walked on the street, he finally understood what those unmanned machines were doing.

They are indeed "restoring" the city.

However, they only repaired the damaged equipment related to "electricity" in the city.

"This city must be completely powered by electricity."

"Without electricity, this city will die."

As he ran forward, Lin Yu said:
"But where does the electricity come from? Is it also buried underground?"

"do not know."

The scout's eyes were fixed on what lay ahead.

"I don't care where the electricity is, and it doesn't matter whether this city is dead or not."

"but."

"There's something up ahead!"

"It's full of living things!"

"We won't die!"

The scout's tone was filled with undisguised surprise. Lin Yu looked in the direction he was pointing and immediately noticed many dark figures flashing by in the lush park.

It really is a living thing.

Lin Yu quickened his pace instantly, drawing his long sword.

They don't need any complicated attack methods; at their speed, no animal can escape their blades.

With his remaining energy completely depleted, Lin Yu felt his steps begin to falter as he rushed into the woods.
-
This is clearly not a real forest.

Instead, it was an "artificial garden" enclosed by wire and fences!
But it's okay.

These fences can't stop him at all.

Lin Yu leaped up, and as he landed, a startled deer crashed into his blade.

A flash of cold light, and blood splattered.

Lin Yu looked around warily and soon discovered that the garden was almost entirely inhabited by docile small animals.

"Does it smell like a monster?"

Lin Yu asked the scout who had rushed over from the side.

"No."

"There is no smell of monsters."

"but."

"That strange smell was very strong."

"Strange smell?"

Lin Yu frowned.

"That strange smell you mentioned before?" "Yes."

The scout reached out and touched the still convulsing carcass of the deer at his feet, brought his fingertips to his nose, and said:
"The smell of the blood was particularly strong, but it didn't seem poisonous."

"What should we do? Should we eat it or not?"

"Eat! I'm about to die, aren't you going to eat?"

Lin Yu grabbed the deer head that had been cut off from the side and took a deep breath.

Fresh blood rushed into my throat, followed by a strong, salty, and fishy taste, and then the unique sweetness of the food began to dance on my tongue.

A tremendous sense of satisfaction washed over me instantly.

He is too hungry.

With a fierce bite, he swallowed chunks of venison.

He even felt his throat being scratched by the overly rough venison, but he couldn't care less.

A wave of dizziness began to wash over him, and he leaned against a nearby tree, panting heavily, his chest emitting satisfied breaths.

"We don't care if it's poisonous."

Lin Yu said vaguely.

"It's not poisonous."

The scout beside him also had his mouth stuffed full of venison. After finally swallowing it, he continued:

"But this smell is really strange."

"I found it disgusting to eat."

"nausea?"

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment.

At that moment, he also sensed the strange smell the scout had described.

But actually, the taste didn't make him feel nauseous.

"I don't understand your feelings, I think it tastes pretty good."

"Very delicious."

"Deliciousness is another matter."

The scout was still stuffing food into his mouth.

"It's delicious, but that doesn't stop it from being disgusting."

"Forget it, don't worry about it."

"At least it's confirmed to be non-toxic!"

"We can survive."

"Yes."

Lin Yu exhaled a breath of stale air.

The intense negative emotions caused by several days of food shortages vanished at this moment, as if the dark clouds overhead had been evaporated by the sun, and he felt an unprecedented sense of happiness.

This was a feeling he had never experienced even when he "graduated" from the Holy Blood Hall.

The two ate for a full 10 minutes, until their stomachs were completely full, before finally putting down the venison that had been gnawed into pieces.

Lin Yu wiped his mouth; blood stained his face, making him look somewhat gruesome.

"Cut this deer open."

He opened his mouth and said:
"Remove the internal organs and separate the meat."

"We can't use fire; it would be too conspicuous."

"Eat the edible offal now, otherwise it won't keep for long."

"clear."

As the scout cut open the deer's carcass with his knife, he asked:
"Why not hunt more game?"

"Want to fight."

Lin Yu countered with a question:
"But does that mean we should just throw away the head? We'll have to remove the internal organs eventually."

"Makes sense."

The scout reached out and opened the deer's abdomen, but at that very moment, his movements suddenly stopped.

"what happened?"

Lin Yu noticed the change in his expression.

Under the dim starlight, a barely perceptible hint of fear appeared on the scout's face.

Taking a deep breath, the scout spoke:
"Something's not right with this deer."

"damn it"

"This deer has two hearts and three lungs!"
