Apocalyptic Island - Chapter 20
Chapter 20
The moment the helmet fell into the fish’s mouth, Wang Li seemed to not react and subconsciously swallowed the helmet.
Then, her hand holding Bai Mi loosened. A loud explosion came from her mouth full of sharp teeth. Wen Yishu’s ears, which had just recovered a little, seemed to be ringing again.
She quickly raised her hands to cover her ears and kicked Wang Li away.
Wang Li, who was motionless just a moment ago, flew out like a deflated ball under the force of this kick.
It didn’t stop until it hit the wall.
Its internal organs seemed to have suffered a devastating blow. It spat out large mouthfuls of green water.
After gasping for a while on the ground, it staggered and stood up again.
Wang Li gasped like a broken bellows.
That face turned back into a human’s, except that her mouth now had a huge gaping hole.
Her upper and lower lips were completely blown apart. The sticky flesh was like minced pork strips from a meat grinder, half red and half white, hanging on it.
Wen Yishu closed her eyes and felt a little nauseous.
When she opened her eyes on the sofa, she saw Huang Fei looking at her with a nervous expression.
Her memory was still on the underground shelter before she fainted. Huang Fei quickly told her what happened afterward.
A sound of fighting came from outside, waking up the three people who were lying on the ground.
The feeling of being in the underground shelter had not disappeared, but Wen Yishu’s ears and eyes became clearer.
She could even hear Ling Shuang’s heavy breathing and the slight sound of fabric rubbing when Huo Xiaoguan turned over from the sofa.
She naturally heard the sounds outside clearly as well.
Before the others could react to what was happening, Wen Yishu had already gotten up, quickly opened the door, and saw the scene that had just happened.
The team leader was thinly dressed and was fighting with a Variant.
The red dot on the helmet representing the explosion was flashing, seeming to be asking her for help. She did not hesitate and kicked the Variant away.
The strength in her body seemed to be more powerful than she had imagined. With just a little effort, she took care of the fish person that had almost killed the team leader just now.
After the Variant turned back into the minister’s appearance, Wen Yishu was not surprised. She looked at Wang Li’s greedy face and disgustedly pulled out her short blade.
A defeated Variant actually dared to stare at her like this.
Wen Yishu did not wait for the other side to make a move first. She ran out very quickly. Looking at the fragrant flesh and blood in front of her, Wang Li’s mouth opened almost by reflex.
Her former colleague had become a delicious meal. She really, really wanted to take a bite.
She had only been a Variant for ten minutes, but her hunger had already reached its peak.
A voice in her mind was clamoring, eat her, eat these people.
She let out a long burp. Those eyes that originally belonged to a human had completely turned into dead fish eyes.
With a “plop,” Wen Yishu stabbed through it. The white, cloudy eyeball belonging to a fish did not fall out just like that.
It pushed away the knife that Wen Yishu had plunged in and screamed frantically.
“I’m going to kill you! I’m definitely going to kill you! I’m definitely going to eat your eyes!”
Wang Li jumped up. The scales on her body stood up frantically. That bloody face almost took up her entire face.
The human teeth inside had turned into sharp fangs, determined to swallow Wen Yishu’s head in one bite.
Wen Yishu did not dodge at all. She just turned her body slightly and sliced the short blade upward along the corner of its mouth.
Her originally tough skin was easily cut open. Its entire “person” completely turned into a fish that was cut in half.
Perhaps because she had just recovered, no matter how powerful she was before, Wen Yishu was still pushed down onto one knee by its weight. The dripping mucus fell on her shoulder, emitting a unique fishy smell.
Wen Yishu gritted her teeth and stood up again. Wang Li on the windowsill had lost the strength to scream. It was breathing hard, and the cut on its body was healing quickly.
The flesh and internal organs inside were like a solidified plate of “Mao xue wang” (a dish made with various animal internal organs). It was growing in its body and had not fallen off for the time being.
Wen Yishu was horrified. It didn’t even die from this.
Seeing that she was about to make a second cut, Wang Li no longer cared about the delicious food in front of her. It desperately began to squeeze out the window.
It completely disregarded the healing wounds on its body and even completely abandoned a portion of its internal organs.
This made Wen Yishu think of how sea cucumbers run away. The window could only be opened to a small gap. Outside were plants that covered the sky and sun.
Wang Li’s speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, she had squeezed her entire body out. She lay on the plant, and the fear and panic she had just felt immediately disappeared.
The wounds on her body healed faster due to the rain. Looking at the window crack that was only the size of Wen Yishu’s arm, she laughed maniacally: “You can’t kill me at all! Xiao Wen, just you wait. The minister will take good care of you and make your life a living hell.”
The rain outside slanted down on Wang Li. She looked at Wen Yishu’s expressionless face inside the window and showed a look of obsession.
What good flesh and blood. The craving for flesh and blood had reached its peak.
The wounds on her body healed quickly due to the rain. She even looked a little stronger than when she started.
Wen Yishu inside the window showed a harmless smile. She wiped the short blade clean and put it away: “Is that so, Minister?”
Wang Li’s laughter stopped abruptly. The branches under her suddenly grew wildly, piercing her entire body from her fish tail.
Just like they were piercing those human corpses, she felt that all the power in her body was being absorbed by the branches at this moment.
Her eyelids became heavy. The last fantasy in her mind before death was still a human one.
If she could have maintained her original form and just sent Wen Yishu to be used for human research, would everything have returned to normal?
Wang Li had a smile on her face, immersed in the last beautiful dream woven for her by the illusionary beast. She quickly turned into a less-than-aesthetic dried fish.
Wen Yishu retracted her hand from the branches outside the window and closed the window to block the rain.
She turned around and walked toward Bai Mi.
