The Creatures That We Are

Chapter 46: Bloody Battle

Bam! A great force slammed into the door from the outside and crack! An arm covered in dark green scales shoved through the door, soon followed by another. The two arms swung around and tore into the wood madly like chainsaws, making a big hole in the door in no time.

Then a half transformed man bent down to get through. Gao Yang recognized him as the scholarly looking man, Ah-Zhi.

Under his glasses, his now all-white eyes bulged unnaturally, and his facial features twisted into a monstrous mask of fury, saliva dripping from his mouth in hunger. Half of his body had already entered the house. He chanted, “Human, humanhumanhuman...”

Bang! A bullet hit his eye.

He screamed in pain, and a sharp blade buried into his open mouth, penetrating through his—its throat. Ah-Zhi’s entire body spasmed until it gradually stopped moving.

Shing! The moment Qing Ling pulled her Tang Dao back, a splatter of blood hit Wang Zikai’s face.

Wang Zikai stopped moving. Although he had screamed about killing monsters with the most passion earlier, he realized at that moment that he wasn’t as brave as he thought he was, and he didn’t enjoy killing as much as he thought he did. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update

“Move!” Officer Huang yelled at him.

Wang Zikai was startled into action.

“Die!” With a kick, he sent the monster stuck in the door flying the other way. He was undoubtedly strong as a young monster.

Bam! Bam, bam! More monsters rushed through the front yard to slam into the door. Already damaged and frail, the door gave in, toppling to the floor. Three half-transformed villagers crawled up, ignoring their kin, Wang Zikai, and lunging straight at Qing Ling and Officer Huang.

Bang!

Swoosh!

Gunshot and the swing of the blade overlapped as blood splattered everywhere, and two monsters collapsed. The monster in the middle was grappled by Wang Zikai. His two arms wrapped around the monster’s waist and transformed rapidly, turning into a pair of bronze vise-like limbs.

With a yell, Wang Zikai tightened his arms and cut through the monster’s flesh and spine with a series of cracking sounds. The monster screamed in pain, opening its mouth in its moment of death and biting into Wang Zikai’s shoulder with red fangs.

“Ahhh—” Wang Zikai yelled.

“Soon...soon... It’s okay...it’s okay...” Fat Jun trembled all over, his brain overtaken completely by fear, and he repeated the reassurance on autopilot.

Thud! Then an arm covered in brown hair like those of an ape shot through the window and grabbed Fat Jun by the neck, dragging him backward.

Fat Jun screamed. It was thanks to his big body that he got stuck at the window frame rather than getting dragged out immediately.

Gao Yang forgot about his injury and jumped to his feet, burying his dagger into the ape-like arm. It retracted with a scream.

“Help, mom! Help...” Fat Jun couldn’t even thank Gao Yang for saving him. Instead, he crawled under a desk like his life depended on it and put his arms around his head, curling into himself. He had broken down completely.

Gao Yang knew Fat Jun had done his best. There was nothing to blame him for.

Covering the wound on his chest, Gao Yang got to his feet. Countless bodies could be seen on the ground outside the door.

Officer Huang had run out of bullets. He cast the gun aside and picked up a rusty machete before pulling back to Gao Yang’s side. “You good?”

“I’m good!” Gao Yang tightened his grip around the dagger and ground his teeth together.

An agile monster charged through the door on all fours like a leopard. With a graceful leap, it dodged Qing Ling’s horizontal slash and lunged at Officer Huang.

“Ah!” Officer Huang swung the machete at the monster’s head, but it ended up hitting its shoulder. With the great momentum it had built up, the monster kept going forward and slammed Officer Huang to the floor.

Howling furiously, it opened its maw wide, brandishing all its sharp fangs. It was seconds away from tearing into Officer Huang’s neck.

Gao Yang rushed up to it and held onto his dagger with both hands. Using the inertia of his fall, he buried the blade into the back of the monster’s head. The sharp tip penetrated through its skull and protruded from its mouth, almost hitting Officer Huang’s eye. A mix of viscous blood and repulsive cerebral fluid dripped down the blade to Officer Huang’s face.

The man pushed the monster off with some difficulty and picked up the machete before helping Gao Yang up. Panting, the two of them pressed their backs together. Another battle would soon come.

“You good?” Officer Huang wiped the bodily fluids off his face and asked again.

“I’m good!” Gao Yang’s eyes were bloodshot.

“Alright!” Officer Huang shouted with renewed spirit. “My wife hasn’t given birth yet. I can’t die now!”

“I can’t die now either!” Gao Yang agreed, but without an epic declaration to make, his mouth seemed to have a mind of its own and shouted, “I’m still a virgin!”
