Chapter 30 Warrior Instinct

It was not that Yan Jingxing had never tried to fight against this alien creature before. During the time when Teacher Gao was possessed by the Hairless One, he tried to stop it from moving and hit it with heavy objects at hand.

As a result, the smooth skin popped off easily

But...this doesn't mean that he has no chance to defeat the opponent.

If it is a situation that cannot be seen or touched, then since there is a physical touch, there must be a way to grasp the vital point.

Thinking this, Yan Jingxing narrowed his eyes and began to observe the movement in front of him attentively.

His eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, and the monster that was slowly crawling along the corridor and wall gradually revealed its full appearance.

A kind of "intuition", a kind of "knowledge"——

When he seriously wanted to take action, information that he had never understood before naturally flowed into his brain.

At this moment, Yan Jingxing suddenly found that he could understand what Chun Zao felt like when he said, "There seems to be something in my head suddenly."

If you don't experience it yourself, others are bound to be unable to understand this magical experience.

He is just an ordinary junior high school student who has not received any professional training in the past and has no knowledge of fighting or hunting;

But at this moment, when he was concentrating on selecting his opponent, the biological instinct related to struggle was immediately activated——

Even though there is no change in physical strength or physical strength, it can still be said that he is now a completely different person from the one he was ten seconds ago.

In other words, this is a change that occurs at the "consciousness" level.

His brain was spinning rapidly, looking for places that might be the monster's vital points:

Tough muscles grow under the skin of hairless people, which secrete sticky tissue fluid. Ordinary people may not be able to cut through this layer of natural defense even with cold weapons such as swords.

As for the large hairless leader and the hairless people who formed a group, not to mention, before they had considerable firepower, people could only flee in panic when they encountered them.

Moreover, even if you want to fight in close quarters, you cannot stay close for too long, otherwise this creature will sneak into the human body when you are not prepared, and then you will be in trouble, because it will eat the host's brain.

Transform the host's body into a nest.

It's very tricky, indeed more dangerous than the beasts on earth.

But even so——

Yan Jingxing, whose thinking had become calmer and more active than ever before, still noticed their weaknesses.

In this world, there are many creatures with natural defenses: for example, the thick fur and fat of mammals, the chitin exoskeleton of arthropods... For thousands of years, their ancestors have adapted to the environment and fought against natural enemies in order to survive.

And the organs that evolved;

But similarly, as long as it is a living thing, it must have a part that exchanges information with the outside world, but such organs are often difficult to cover by its own defenses.

Even creatures living on another planet cannot escape this principle.

This is the weakness that Yan Jingxing sees——

The hairless man's head has three holes, like an abstract, distorted face.

The size of these holes is very small, making them difficult to attack compared to the body. In addition, the hairless man crawls and pounces very quickly, making it even more difficult to aim.

When most people see this terrifying creature charging towards them, their first reaction will be to turn around and run away instead of resisting.

"..."

Yan Jingxing squatted down silently. He picked at the ground and finally selected a few relatively sharp and small metal fragments.

The entire palace is carved from that weird metal that looks like flesh and blood from a distance, and broken pieces can be seen everywhere.

"Jing Xing, what are you doing?"

The girl next to him asked in a low voice. Yan Jingxing did not answer. He walked back behind Chun Zao's surprised gaze. After pulling away a certain distance, he placed the broken pieces on the edge of the wall next to him and started rubbing them.

"Um……"

Xie Yuzhi observed his movements carefully.

"Are you sharpening the broken pieces? Jing Xing's movements look very skillful. Has he done this before?"

"I've never seen it..." Ji Chunzao shook his head, "No, I should say I don't know."

Halfway through her words, the girl remembered that she and Yan Jingxing had not known each other for more than a month.

It's amazing that our relationship has become so close, so familiar that we feel like we have been friends since childhood.

Yan Jingxing remained silent and continued to work with his head down. After a few minutes, he sharpened all the edges of the broken pieces, then put them in the palm of his hand and raised them to his eyes for observation.

The broken pieces had turned into small simple "flying knives", and Yan Jingxing nodded with satisfaction.

He stood up and walked directly towards the depths of the corridor.

"Hey, hey...be careful, you will be discovered, they may attack you."

Miss Xie obviously still felt uneasy. Although she didn't intend to stop the boy's actions, she still couldn't help but remind him.

Yan Jingxing did not look back. He looked straight at the "prey" twenty meters away. He continued to move forward and replied:

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Ji Chunzao and Xie Yuzhi, who were left behind, looked at each other, and they could see the confusion in each other's eyes.

…

"Pah. Pah. Pah."

Yan Jingxing walked slowly, throwing the sharp pieces upwards, and then catching them with his palms, repeating this action, as if he was not worried that his palms would be cut.

The first hairless man in the corner immediately noticed someone approaching and squirmed in the direction of Yan Jingxing.

When the distance between them was less than ten meters, he suddenly raised his hand back greatly——

Yan Jingxing's back is straight, his left foot is forward, aligned with his right hand, and his right foot is slightly backward.

His posture was loose, his whole body was in a relaxed state, and all his strength was ready to go, like the rubber band on a slingshot being tightened little by little.

"Whoosh——"

The power of the whole body is rapidly transmitted along the force-generating parts, from the shoulders, to the waist and hips, to the arms, and then to the fingertips——

Yan Jingxing could feel that this series of movements were so natural, like gears meshing together accurately.

When he waved his hand forward, it was so fast that it almost left an afterimage.

The sharpened pieces penetrated the air and spanned a distance of ten meters.

"boom!"

The fragments thrown by Yan Jingxing rubbed against the hairless man's head and rolled on the ground "dong dong dong" under the action of inertia.

Missed a shot.

And the Hairless Man had already broken into this range, as if it sensed the approaching crisis, it accelerated its speed, nine meters, seven meters, five meters, three meters... The leech monster suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the young man's head.

.

Yan Jingxing heard the girls' exclamations from behind.

Even though he missed for the first time, his eyes remained calm and showed no frustration at all.

He even had the mind to analyze why he missed. The main reason was that he had never specifically trained in throwing objects before, and the light in the surrounding environment was too dim, which also led to his misjudgment of position and direction.

As for missing the first shot, this was within Yan Jingxing's prediction.

There is more than one way to ensure that the next shot hits, but the simplest and most direct way is to shorten the distance to the target.

The hairless creature jumped into the air and opened its ferocious and ugly mouthparts. Yan Jingxing watched helplessly as it rushed toward his face, with a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

——Look, isn’t this guy eager to get closer?

The fragments in his hand flew up quickly, and the sharp metal hit the leech's face and penetrated into the dark hole. It had no time to struggle, and was penetrated straight through the head.

The hairless one fell to the ground, and its body curled up like a locust that had been sprinkled with salt and lost its moisture. It remained motionless.

"...Well, it looks like he is dead."

Yan Jingxing clapped his hands with satisfaction, turned around and walked in the direction of his companions.

…

He returned to Ji Chunzao and Xie Yuzhi and saw the two girls looking at him in surprise.

"How's it going? The monsters are not impossible to defeat." Yan Jingxing smiled, "Although it's just the first one, it's a good start, isn't it?"

"Jing Xing, could you do this kind of thing before?"

Xie Yuzhi stared at him without blinking, as if trying to find some hidden secret on his face.

"I don't think so."

"So, this is the power brought by the 'warrior'?"

"That's right."
