It looked like a brand new monster was about to be born.
Chapter 52: Out of Control
The situation is out of control.
There was no need for Hitzfeld to point it out, everyone else understood this very clearly.
But even so, when they rushed out of the house and clearly saw the huge shadow crawling in the darkness, they instantly felt their hands and feet go cold, and fear grew uncontrollably in their hearts.
"How can it... be so big?"
It appears to be at least ten meters tall, and its entire structure is made up of twisted oak branches and trunks coming together.
It still looked like a tree - it had a trunk, with oak trunks twisted together to form its main body, and the branches entwined at the top did not turn into something strange, but remained as they were, forming a larger crown.
But it can move and walk. Its roots gather into three thick and sturdy legs that look like sheep's hooves... This is definitely not a tree.
Not to mention that it has countless sharp teeth.
On its crown, at the junction of the crown and the trunk, the twisted wood grain surface is crisscrossed with deep cracks, each of which has sharp teeth on the upper and lower edges, and from time to time a slender and sticky tongue will emerge from it.
The huge monster crashed into the shop under the shocked and confused gaze of everyone, and stepped on the ground with one foot, causing the ground to tremble every time it walked.
"what--"
It opened its mouth and roared at the sky in the darkness of eternal night.
"Ah-"
Every mouth followed suit at the same time, making different, deep and sharp screams.
"Is this a nightmare..." Agent Anmi muttered to himself with a pale face.
He couldn't understand why things had developed to this point, even though Fair Lawrence was already dead and they had treated these things without any hesitation and killed them as soon as they met.
Officers heard more screaming.
Then it wasn't emitted by the monster...but it was seen by more townspeople who were hiding in their homes, and they were completely frightened by this extremely horrific scene.
The houses' resistance had proven to be futile, and many doors and windows were immediately opened. Some people rushed out onto the streets, carrying large and small bags, trying to escape the town on foot.
But they attracted the thing's attention instead.
"Bang!" It took a step forward and caught up.
"Bang...bang bang!" The three thick hooves ran faster and faster. The treetops kept twisting and shaking during the running, looking like octopus tentacles.
"Hahaha..." A huge mouth growing on the tree trunk let out a low laugh.
"Hahahaha..." Countless giant mouths responded, spitting out long, sticky, saliva-covered tongues and laughing foolishly.
This scene looked extremely weird - every time the clumsy body ran, the tongues would be thrown around by inertia. Some were simply bitten off by the mouth.
But it seemed unconscious.
I don’t know how this thing that seemed to have no eyes at all detected those people. Anyway, it chased them, and the tree canopy really came alive at this time.
It stretched out like a tentacle, and with various flexible postures, it rolled up the terrified living people, threw them into its mouth and began to chew them.
"Squeak... squeak..."
"Monster! Monster!!!"
"Squeak... squeak..."
"Damn it...you beast!"
Fear, despair, anger... almost all the negative emotions that humans can generate gathered over the town.
More and more people were stimulated to run out of the house, and the police officers were almost crazy. Some followed the crowd, while others took out their small pistols and shot wildly at the monsters from a hundred meters away in vain.
"Captain Xia Sha! What should we do now?" Agent An Mi woke up as if from a dream, turned his head and stared at Xia Yibing, expecting her to give instructions.
But what can Xia Yibing do?
The situation is out of control. It is no longer possible to isolate the suspects, and there is no way to fight this monster with the forces at hand.
"Changxia" might be able to cut it, but she didn't have hope for that efficiency.
It was so huge, and its body was still growing as it ate people.
When it first appeared, it was only a little higher than the ordinary houses, about ten meters. Now it is obviously higher, probably twelve meters.
How to fight this monster?
Even if it was the Ash Legion… she doubted that the bombardment would be ineffective.
"Hold still, everyone."
A voice suddenly came.
A little hurried, but still trying to stay calm.
It's Aisun.
She turned her head and still saw obvious resistance in that single blue eye.
"Don't move, don't talk, and try not to make any noise - it may be able to 'see' by the vibrations of the ground."
"Are you sure?" Zafira asked doubtfully.
“You can give other suggestions.”
Zafira shut up immediately.
There is no need to care about face at this time. Survival is more important than anything else.
Several people immediately issued the order "Don't move".
The police officers were well trained and were relatively obedient to orders, but the fleeing crowd was so frightened that they could not even hear the shouts of those around them.
Orders? What the hell?
Don't let anyone delay your escape!
Almost no civilians complied, people were still fleeing, and the tree monsters were still hunting sprees.
Screams and screams mixed together, accompanied by the sharp laughter of monsters, the town has turned into purgatory.
Hitzfeld suddenly ran to another house across the street, saying, "Let everyone hide, quickly!"
The others were stunned, then quickly reacted.
Yeah - if these fucking people won't listen, then why are they still standing on the street?
Waiting to die?
If her speculation is true, with so many vibrations interfering with the monster at the same time, it is very likely that it will not notice this side, and it is a good time to hide.
If this guess is wrong, and that thing is not relying on vibration to make judgments but has real vision, then standing on the street would be a waste of time... No matter how you look at it, this choice is not wrong.
"Why don't we go back?"
Pippen ran and yelled, repeatedly looking back at the doorway behind him.
That was where they had just come out, and running back was obviously much faster than running across the street.
Hitzfeld glanced back at him.
"Your partner's body is in there."
The tone was cold.
Pippen thought about how Herm turned into a tree and instantly got goose bumps.
Yes.
If the trees that those people turned into were all parts of this monster, then wouldn't going back be equivalent to being in the same room with the monster's clones?
I'm asking for trouble. How could I ask such a question?
Thinking in his heart that he would never question the other party's decision again, Pippen followed them into the house, and turned around to see Graeme Alex standing outside the door in a daze.
"idiot!"
He pulled the black agent in, and then a few confused police officers in. He recalled the girl's instructions, gently closed the door, and locked it.
"call……"
"call……"
The sound of people breathing echoed in the darkness.
"I've told them to find a place to hide..."
Agent Anmi said.
“I wonder how many of them will escape…”
He has no hope for the future.
There was too much movement.
Once discovered by the army outside, they will definitely bombard the town with artillery fire.
Hiding in the house is probably of no use, it will only delay death.
Hitzfeld opened his mouth.
Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly heard a "click".
It sounds familiar, as if I heard it somewhere not long ago.
Their faces changed and everyone immediately moved away from a police officer.
A match was lit, and they were horrified to see that the man was also wrapped in vines, his face twisted in pain, kneeling on the ground.
"Go upstairs, or into the basement."
Hitzfeld himself could hear the coldness in his own tone.
"Each of you find a place to hide."
"quick!"

Chapter 53 Reappearance
"General." A voice sounded in the darkness.
"Come in."
Sols changed his position in the darkness so that he could sit more comfortably. He looked up and saw a gap in the door curtain, and a dark shadow darker than the night came in.
Unlike Gunter who had merely adapted to the darkness, the darkness had become a part of him.
It can even be used as his organ, his eyes, which allows him to directly call out the other person's name.
"Frey."
"General."
The man who came was one of his adjutants, a colonel, and had followed him for many years, Flesius.
"As the intelligence predicted, the town has indeed experienced a change. According to the initial information sent back by the sentinels, there is a tree demon over ten meters tall going crazy and wreaking havoc."
"What a rampage."
"It destroys houses and eats people. And as it eats, its size will continue to grow." Flesius looked at his position, "I think we should make a decision now."
After following him for many years, he and Sols were no longer just superiors and subordinates. Gunter didn't dare to give such advice, but Fresius could afford it.
But Sauls remained unmoved.
"Wait a little longer," he said.
"Okay." Flesius did not insist, "Then wait."
After saying that, he closed his mouth and stood motionless in the tent, as if he had never appeared.
Five minutes passed.
