#1238 - monster
The wooden sword drew a graceful arc in the air, with a sharp sound of wind, and hit the uncle's arm accurately again.
This time, the sound of broken bones was clearly audible, along with the uncle's shrill howls. His upper arm seemed to be gently pinched by an invisible hand, and it lost its support and drooped weakly. His entire arm hung limply on his shoulder, shaking with his staggering steps, which was particularly shocking.
The uncle's screams echoed in the empty streets, attracting the attention of some passers-by, but they just took a quick glance and continued on their way, as if such scenes were not uncommon in this busy city.
The tall girl Busujima Saeko stood in front of the uncle. There was no sympathy or pity on her face. She enjoyed the uncle's howling, which was a kind of catharsis for justice and an affirmation of her own strength.
Then, she swung the wooden sword in her hand again without mercy. This time, her movements were faster and more irregular, as if she was venting her inner anger and dissatisfaction.
She deliberately made the subsequent attacks appear chaotic just to confuse possible witnesses, pave the way for the upcoming call to the police, and ensure that her actions were justified within the legal framework.
The wooden sword flew in the air, and every swing brought a gust of wind. The uncle's body was soon covered with scars, blood stained his clothes red, and his screams became weaker and weaker.
Busujima Saeko was finally satisfied and stopped what she was doing.
She was going to call the police. After all, it was this wretched old man who attacked her first.
She took out her cell phone and was about to call the police when a loud bang suddenly sounded, like the collapse of the sky and the earth, shaking the entire street.
Busujima Saeko was startled by the loud noise. She suddenly looked up in the direction where the noise came from, with an expression of disbelief on her face.
A huge crack appeared on the ground, as if it was an abyss from underground, swallowing up everything around it. But what shocked Busujima Saeko even more was that next to the crack, there was a huge phantom standing!
The shadow was so huge that Busujima Saeko could only look up.
She couldn't see the specific appearance of the phantom, she could only vaguely see its huge size and blurry figure. The phantom was at least five meters tall, like a walking mountain, giving people an indescribable sense of oppression.
"What is this?"
Busujima Saeko murmured to herself, her heart filled with doubt and fear.
She had never seen such a strange and powerful existence, as if it was a monster that came from another world.
At this time, pedestrians on the street also noticed the crack. They stopped and looked over here in horror.
The crowd began to stir, some people screamed in panic, some took out their mobile phones to take pictures or call the police, and some tried to flee this dangerous place.
"What's going on? Was there an earthquake?"
A middle-aged man asked in horror.
"That's impossible. I didn't receive any text message notification on my phone. And how strong of an earthquake would it be to cause such a big crack on the ground? But I didn't even feel any shaking."
A young girl answered doubtfully.
Hearing people talking on the street, Busujima Saeko was stunned for a moment.
What are these people talking about?
Didn't they see that thing?
That crack was clearly caused by that phantom!
She wanted to say something, but at this moment, the phantom's body slowly moved and turned towards Busujima Saeko.
Although she couldn't see the shadow's sight, Busujima Saeko could feel by instinct that the shadow's target was her!
A strong sense of crisis surged in her heart, as if an invisible force was approaching her.
escape!
There was only one thought in Busujima Saeko's mind, and that was to escape from this dangerous place.
Without saying a word, she turned around and ran, weaving through the crowd like a flash of black lightning.
She was running so fast, as if there was wind under her feet, and soon disappeared at the end of the street.
During the escape, Busujima Saeko kept looking back, fearing that the huge phantom would catch up with her. But fortunately, the phantom did not catch up with her, but just stood there quietly, as if waiting for something.
Busujima Saeko ran all the way to a remote alley before stopping. She leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.
Her heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was going to jump out of her chest.
The huge shadow and the terrifying crack kept replaying in her mind, and her heart was filled with fear and anxiety.
"What on earth is that?"
Busujima Saeko muttered to herself.
Busujima Saeko's heart was beating violently in her chest, and every beat seemed to remind her that everything she had just experienced was not an illusion.
She tried to breathe properly, trying to break free from the sudden fear, and turned around to leave the dark and narrow alley.
However, just as she took a step, an unprecedented huge shadow stood in front of her like a mountain, blocking the already sparse moonlight and shrouding everything around her in a strange darkness.
“Bang!”
A dull and powerful collision sound was heard, as if it was a call from another world. Busujima Saeko's consciousness became blurred at this moment, as if something was slowly being pulled out of her body, taking away all her strength and ability to think.
When she finally gathered her spirits with difficulty, the scene before her had changed drastically.
The phantom had now revealed its true appearance—a gigantic, deformed monster, its body covered with pitch-black scales that gleamed ominously in the faint moonlight.
The most horrifying thing is that there is a huge hole in its chest, as if it can swallow all light and hope, and on that hideous face, it is wearing a mask made of bones. The empty eyes on the mask are staring directly at Busujima Saeko, revealing an indescribable malice and pleasure.
Busujima Saeko had never seen such a terrifying existence. Her body trembled involuntarily and fear overwhelmed her like a tide.
The monster seemed to enjoy her fear very much. The "mouth" under the mask slowly opened and let out a low and satisfied laugh: "It seems that you can now see my appearance completely clearly. Well, that's right, because you... are already dead!"
"I'm dead?"
Busujima Saeko's voice was as thin as a thread. She looked down at herself in disbelief, as if to confirm the integrity of her body, but apart from the panic in her heart, she felt nothing.
