The girl with white hair and red eyes is serious about revenge

“I have to do it.”

The black mechanical hand took out a booklet from its waist and gently brushed away the dust on it. In the turbulent air currents at high altitude, Ivar turned the page and scanned the words on it one by one with his light green eyes.

Just like countless times before, under the shadow of the Tower of Babel, Ivar quietly mourned those words:

"【Cake】...【Birthday】...【Withered Flower】...【Mud】..."

He remembered the pure white figure - the figure that disappeared in the black tide, as gorgeous and short-lived as a night-blooming cereus.

"【The Undertaker】...【Earssa】...【The Waves】...【Cheese】..."

If he could meet her again, would he apologize or would he cry like a piece of shit with no dignity at all?

"【Scavenger】...【Apocalypse】...【Thermos Bottle】..."

The light green eyes were slightly startled, and at the end, Ivar Sekpas's face was extremely dull.

And what appeared before her was a pair of blood-red eyes.

Have to do it.

"The Babel."

As the last word was pronounced, dark lines flowed into the light green eyes. As the sparks filled the air, the corners of the [Scavenger]'s mouth twisted into a sickly arc. He trembled slightly like a naughty child, and his dark green eyes looked at the vast playground in front of him.

"Hey hey hey hey...here I come...ants..."

Ivar jumped from the edge of the cabin and fell from the sky. He had a crazy smile on his face, as if this was just a diving session at a party.

“Ahahahahahahaha, here I come!!!”

The red factor shield was burning around him, leaving a long red trail behind him. This red meteor was so conspicuous that it seemed out of place in the sea of ​​ants.

Looking down at the battlefield from above, Ivar's mouth still maintained that exaggerated smile. Faintly, he saw the little flower, the little flower that fell into the mud.

"At this moment, the [Scavenger] joins the hunt."

...END...

5) Apex Predators

"Get out of the way!! Get out of the way!!"

"Ahhhhh!!"

“Retreat quickly, retreat quickly ahhhhhhhhhh!!”

"Om-"

"Shhh-"

"..."

“Squeak, squeak, squeak—click—”

In the center of the battlefield, Itrisna swung violently, and the long mechanical bone whip was snapped into a straight line one section at a time, turning into the shape of a sharp sword.

On the blood-stained yellow sand, she raised the straight long whip high, and the red factor energy instantly filled every joint -

"Om-"

"Little mouse, I see you~"

A crazy smile appeared on Itrisna's face. She swung the bone whip towards a ruin at the other end of the road.

"boom--"

The enormous force of the bone whip instantly cut the more than one-meter-thick concrete wall in half, and the broken stones were covered with traces of burns caused by factor energy.

Amidst the rubble, a man covered in dust staggered to his feet and screamed as he fled from Itrisna.

He was the last survivor of this team, but not the last prey of [North Star]——

"Ahhhhh!!"

Itrisna had no desire to take a step forward. She just stood in the middle of the venue with a smile, listening to the screams coming from the ruins with satisfaction.

Then, a huge shadow penetrated the smoke and dust - it was Itrisna's cyborg bodyguard, RSTA-75 "Colossus".

"Let me go! Let me go! Please..."

In the hand of the giant, the man was twisting his body and struggling desperately. His hands were tightly grasped by the giant's bionic prosthesis, leaving him no possibility of escape.

"Please...I don't want to...I don't want to..."

The man begged, but the colossus seemed not to hear him. It just slowly moved towards Itrisna. Its eyes, which were shining with genetic energy, were lifeless and looked a little creepy in the smoke and dust.

"Ugh!"

With a scream, the man was thrown to the ground by the colossus and fell in front of Itrisna.

He raised his head and met those crazy, creepy eyes——

"You're quite good at running, mouse."

Idrisna grabbed the man's chin hard with her hand, forcing him to face her.

"The supply bunker is here, the dog tags are here, why are you running? Why aren't you attacking me?"

"Please... please..."

The man shook his head in panic, and his peripheral vision seemed to catch a glimpse of the supply warehouse not far away, and the body lying next to the supply warehouse, which was beaten to pieces by the bone whip.

Those were his companions. They didn't even put up much resistance before they were crushed to death like ants.

"Let me go, I won't show up again, please..."

The man begged Idrisna, his eyes sparkling with tears, and every wrinkle on his rough face seemed to tell of sadness.

"I still have a daughter, I...she needs money, she must..."

"Okay, I get it, let's go."

Before she finished speaking, Itrisna let go of the man, and the madness on her face disappeared, replaced by calmness. The man sat down on the ground, and for a moment he didn't even react.

“Ah…Ah…”

"Why?" Etrisna raised her eyebrows slightly, "Or do you want to die more?"

"I...I...thank you Miss Lansta for your kindness, thank you, I will leave now, I will..."

The man's voice stuttered, he staggered to his feet, and almost ran away on all fours.

Itrisna did not chase after him. She remained standing where she was. The gaps in the bone whip in her hand were flashing with red factor energy, making a "sizzling" sound in the air.

As expected, mice are good at running. What is it called when it runs in a cage?

Itrisna raised her eyes and thought, but she didn't remember much. When she looked into the distance again, the man had already run more than ten meters away and was about to disappear in the dusty battlefield.

This suits her just fine—

"Om-"

The long bone whip cut through the smoke and dust like waves splitting the water, causing sparks to fly everywhere.

And at the end of the whip's trajectory, the man's body was severed at the waist, and blood burst out like a salute shot into the sky.

“Ahhh…uh…”

Screams, then silence, only smoke and ringing in the ears. With a slight wave of her hand, the bone whip automatically retracted, closing section by section, and coiled around her wrist.

"Oh, yes, I think it's called Hamster?"

Itrisna nodded with satisfaction, and then, through the smoke and dust, she saw the explosion in the distance.

"Little hamster, bite, bite..."

Under the protection of the RSTA-75 "Colossus", Itrisna walked contentedly towards the battlefield in the distance, like a farmer walking among livestock.

When the little animals have a dispute, she should mediate.

After all, she is the top predator in the food chain.

......

"Is she..gone?"

It was not until the tall figure had gone far away that Kemp nervously stuck half of his head out and looked at the battlefield after the bloody massacre.

"It seems to be gone..." Jessica also popped out half of her head, looking nervous, "But... uh..."

"It's horrible..." Kemp sighed, "She actually...just..."

"What a horrible thing! I was merciful and didn't shoot." Yu also poked his head out halfway, his hands shaking. "If...if I had shot, she would have died long ago."

"She has a factor shield, right? How did you..."

"I can't react."

“That doesn’t require a reaction…”

"Stop it!" Jessica stopped the two of them hysterically, "So what now? Go steal the dog tags?"

"Go...go and have a look."

After saying that, Kemp jumped out of the bunker and walked towards the supply box in the center of the battlefield.

Walking on the battlefield filled with smoke and dust, Kemp felt his legs weakening. This was a feeling he had never had before. After witnessing the blood with his own eyes, it seemed that many things had changed.

Half an hour ago, when the group accidentally landed in an area very close to the parachute starting point, they thought they were doomed. Explosions broke out beside them again and again, accompanied by blood and screams.

Witnessing everything, Kemp could only hide himself timidly, like a rat in a sewer.

When the light prism signal of the supply depot rose, the group began to head towards the beacon closest to them - they needed to obtain dog tags at the supply depot to be eligible to evacuate the border and receive the bonus.

Along the way, Kemp and his team witnessed with their own eyes what many people did as they headed towards the supply depot.

They saw the child raising the dagger and bright red staining his tender cheeks.

They saw the old man kneeling on the ground, tears running down the wrinkles on his face.

They saw the weak wailing, their posture like that of ants.

They saw the victor raise his head, and his roar was like the howl of a wolf.

Everything is like an oil painting drawn by a madman in his whispers, which seems to depict the human world, but also reveals hell all the time.

"..."

At the border, the midday sun is so cold.

And in the end, the blood of the defeated, like some kind of paranoid pilgrimage, drew a path leading to the supply depot.

"..."

The cruelty of the competition was far different from what Kemp had imagined. He thought that most of the contestants would go towards their goals and not fight too much, but he was wrong.

After breaking free from the reins called "civilization", he saw the dog transform into a wolf, extending its fangs and claws towards its own kind.

In the purgatory called competition, people return to their most primitive state, mercilessly staining the ground with the blood of their own kind for all they desire, then wipe the blood off and look for the next target.

5) Top Predator (Part 2)

"..."

On the battlefield, Kemp looked up at the sun obscured by smoke and dust, his eyes somewhat weak.

On this pilgrimage road paved with blood, even Yu, who was extremely arrogant before the game, seemed to have his mouth sewn shut and didn't say a word.

Coincidentally, the same thought flashed through the minds of the three people:

Is this the human race? The human race that has undergone the alienation of the Federation?

The great Academi Federation.

"..."

When they finally arrived at the supply depot, they happened to see the bone whip that had dyed the ground bright red like ink, and the butcher wielding the long whip.

[North Star] Itrisna Lansta.

They watched helplessly as Itrisna killed more than a dozen teams - right around this supply warehouse, she was like a natural hunter, destroying everything around her without even moving a step.

Under the long whip she swung, no matter it was the defenseless boy or the fully armed mercenary, they were all chopped into pieces like tofu and turned into corpses on the ground.
