Chapter 879 Caught someone...what?

In the dim abandoned house, Hao Ren and "Gun" held their breath and watched all the movements around them. The light in this abandoned house that had been in disrepair for a long time was not good, and the dark walls and windows blocked by debris made it difficult for them to The room looked extremely gloomy, but the sunlight shining down from the roof in the center of the hall did not bring much light to the room. Whether it was an illusion or not, Hao Ren even felt that the sunlight was weakening and its light was only limited. In a small area, just outside the beam of sunlight, thick shadows were pouring out of the darkness, swallowing up every detail in the room.

The lingering cold breath gathered again after dormant for a few minutes. Hao Ren widened his eyes and looked around, but still couldn't see the attacker. The other party seems to be a completely invisible enemy, with no body shape or sound. The only way to realize "his" existence is through an almost sixth sense. Hao Ren didn't know why he was still being targeted like this on Earth, but after all, he had experienced many battles. After confirming that his shield was still effective against this mysterious attacker, he calmed down and took it with him. A silver spear was taken out from the space.

The plasma light blade at the tip of the spear emitted sparks "chichi" and illuminated a small space around it. Hao Ren immediately felt that the state of the light blade was not right. Its light showed obvious signs of being compressed: the light was weakened. The phenomenon is not an illusion, there is indeed something in this room that is swallowing the light.

"Go" carefully took out her tail from her clothes. She felt that there might be a fight, so she had to ensure that she was in perfect condition. She searched the darkness with wide eyes, threatening sounds coming from her throat. The cat girl's fighting ability is not as good as Hao Ren, but as a cat demon, "Gun" has an unexpected range of perception. If there is something in this room that makes her uneasy, she cannot see it, but she can determine it better than Hao Ren. scope.

"Big Cat, that thing seems to be right under your feet," Cat Girl's voice was trembling a little, "It's stuck to the ground."

Hao Ren immediately swung his spear and made a circle under his feet. The plasma light blade made a "chichi" sound and burned a circle of dark red traces on the cement floor, but he saw nothing in the light. , didn't hit anything, the chill didn't subside, and gathered again.

At the moment when the sense of crisis suddenly appeared, Hao Ren twisted to the side. He clearly saw a series of small sparks suddenly appeared in his chest and abdomen. The rigid shield was hit by an invisible attack again, and this time There is a strange ripple pattern underneath the sparks, which is different from before.

Hao Ren felt a slight itching on his skin, which surprised him: the attacker seemed to have learned the characteristics of the rigid shield in the previous failure, and "his" attack actually had a faint ability to penetrate the shield. Propensity!

Realizing that the enemy was a very strange thing, Hao Ren immediately reached for his pocket, but found nothing: he was in a hurry when he went out and forgot to take out the data terminal, so he could only slowly retreat towards the door while thinking about it in his mind. Call: "Terminal, come here, I need help here."

Then he waved to "Go away": "Go out first, there is something weird in this room!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved the spear around him wildly and jumped out of the abandoned house, followed by "Go" and ran out like a gust of wind.

After leaving the abandoned house, under the hood of the sunshine outside, the sudden light even made Hao Ren a little uncomfortable. Bathed in the sunshine, he truly realized how strange the light and shadow situation in the room was: it was clearly broad daylight, but the room was so dark that it was almost impossible to see even if there was a hole in the roof, the corner of the room It was still as dark as ink, and there was indeed something wrong with this strange optical phenomenon.

The bright sunshine outside the house made Hao Ren feel more at ease, and the weird feeling of coldness seemed to have faded away. He stood with "Gun" on full alert. While looking at the abandoned houses in front of him, he touched the cat demon next to him: "Is that thing still in the house?"

Hao Ren noticed that "Gun" might be able to sense some special things. At this time, he didn't trust his own eyes, so he simply believed in the cat. The strange experience just now made him feel that the enemy might be hiding in the house.

"Go" squinted his eyes and looked inside the house, but at this time the situation inside the house seemed to have returned to normal. The darkness that was wrong before had faded away. Under the sunlight from the big hole in the roof, everything in the house could be seen from the door. scene.

"It seems like he's gone, Meow," the cat girl shook her head in confusion, then glanced at Hao Ren casually, and suddenly her tail straightened in fear, "The big cat is squealing behind you!"

Hao Ren was startled by the word "get out" at first, and then he felt an extremely sinister aura coming from behind him. He almost reflexively jumped out to the side and raised his spear to stab him. Where he was standing, but what shocked him was that he couldn't get rid of the opponent's attack even with such rapid dodge. The sinister aura seemed to be close to his body, and he chased after him with the same speed and agility as him. , as soon as he turned around, he saw a series of sparks suddenly burst out on his arm, along with a numbness on his skin that felt like an electric shock!

Hao Ren turned around in the air and regained his balance. After landing, he quickly took a few steps back. He felt that the sinister aura was following him step by step. Finally, when the aura wanted to take action again, he saw what was going on. What is it--

He saw his shadow projected on the ground suddenly shake, and a circle of lines appeared in the center of the black shadow like water ripples. Then dangerous "things" invisible to the naked eye but perceptible with the sixth sense shot out from the shadow. My own face!

That thing actually lives in the shadow!

At this time, Hao Ren finally understood why this thing could not be shaken off like a tarsal maggot, and when he saw the moment when this strange thing launched its attack, he was finally able to react in time. Considering that people cannot get rid of their own shadow, he did not dodge to the side this time. Instead, he twisted his body suddenly at the moment when the cold air almost stung his skin, and narrowly avoided the attack.

The "enemy" in the shadow seemed to realize that he had been exposed, and "it" finally stopped covering his aura. Hao Ren saw his shadow fluctuating violently like water in the sunlight, and waves of sinister hostility emerged from it. It continued to fill in all directions, and although he couldn't see it with his eyes, he felt that there were countless blade-like things stabbing him from the shadows, and most of the attacks were directed at his upper body.

Hao Ren could only rely on his sixth sense to fight at this moment. He kept retreating and narrowly dodged the invisible attacks time and time again. From time to time, a string of sparks would flash on the rigid shield, and the electric shocks became stronger and stronger. Feelings began to spread over his skin.

Facts have proved that no matter how effective a person's sixth sense is, it is impossible to completely avoid this kind of surprise attack from one's own shadow.

"Go away" looked at Hao Ren fighting with his shadow with a look of horror on her face. After a moment, she finally gritted her teeth and rushed forward to help with a meow.

Seeing this stupid cat bravely rushing over to help him, Hao Ren was surprised but immediately stopped her: "Don't come over!"

The power of the "Shadow Assassin" is weird and inexplicable. He himself is completely unable to deal with it, let alone an immature cat demon. But "Go" turned a deaf ear to Hao Ren's order. She just rushed forward without hesitation, then pressed her whole body onto Hao Ren's shadow and began to scratch the ground with her claws desperately: "I've caught the big cat, I've scratched it." Live it!"

Of course she couldn't catch a shadow. Anyone with a little common sense knew this, but Hao Ren couldn't expect this cat demon to think so much. He was very touched that the cat was so desperate at the critical moment, but even though he was moved, he still continued to fight against his own shadow. He took several steps back slowly to separate his shadow from "Gun's" shadow (he was worried that the shadow assassin would jump into Gun's shadow using some mysterious method), then raised his spear and pointed at it. The ground was stabbed hard.

However, no attack on the material level could harm a shadow. The plasma flames poked molten holes into the ground, but the ripples in the shadow were not affected at all.

Just when Hao Ren didn't know what to do with this strange enemy, he finally heard the voice of the data terminal in his mind: "Partner! This machine is here!"

The data terminal cut through the air and appeared in mid-air, and immediately emitted a blue light that shone on Hao Ren's shadow. Accompanied by a faint crackling sound, as if something was burning, Hao Ren saw something inside his shadow. Something is stripped out by blue light. He took two steps to the side and saw a chaotic gray-black mist left on the ground.

Sure enough, the data terminal's energy interference ability can deal with this thing - it is an energy body.

"You're two minutes late." Hao Ren exhaled and complained about his PDA.

"This machine must first escape from that devilish daughter of yours," the data terminal whistled humanely, "and then we must observe the situation and figure out who you are fighting with while you are twisting and turning. .”
