Proofreading/Edited by: s.h.i.+ro
In the midst of danger, Lin Xii did not panic, because the him now is vastly different from the him before. He is now the perfect fusion of the Progenitor Virus! If he was in the Resident Evil universe, he could be counted as a last boss.
Clenching his jaw, he raised his arms and face forward……
In the small shop, witnessing Lin Xii gotten swallowed by the t.i.tan, Xu Miao' whole body went limp, tears streaming down her face.
"Don't, don't come over here, no……"
Seeing the t.i.tans hand reaching from over the window again towards her as if she was a bird in a cage, Xu Miao's lips trembled, a puddled of something wet started expanding from under her skirt.
"AHHHHH…!"
Letting out a heart wrenching scream, Xu Miao closed her eyes shut and hugged her head under her arms, but there wasn't anything that she was expecting. She open her eyes slightly, and noticed that the t.i.tan's hand retracted, and a confused, dull on its hideous face.
"What!?"
Xu Miao's eyes widened open as she saw the t.i.tan's mouth open unwillingly, and there was a shape of a person, one of his hand was perched on the top of the t.i.tan's jaw, and another at the the bottom, and from the mouth a head was stretched out.
"Lin Xii?"
The person jumped from about nine meters in the air, and landed on the ground. The landing force that was normally able to shake a normal person's organs to internal bleeding, was shrugged off nonchalantly. The virus that was in him, not only allowed him to have the strength to open the t.i.tan's mouth, but also increased the resilience of his body.
"You are still alive?"
She witness with her own eyes that Lin Xii was eaten alive by the t.i.tan, and now witnessing him climbing out of that said t.i.tan, Xu Miao was now confused.
Ignoring the girl that was curled up in the corner, afraid and terrified, Lin Xii concentrated on the situation before him.
The t.i.tan before him is 10 meters tall.
Huge, the huge size of the t.i.tan means it also possesses inhumane strength, after all having a huge body size means every movement that the t.i.tan makes will bring devastating destruction to its surrounding.
The t.i.tan that originated from the anime "s.h.i.+ngeki no Kyojin" was not weak, it has a very strong vitality, any part of its body including its head can be regenerated. The only weakness that it has is the top of its spine on the back of its neck.
The characters in the anime depended on a special gadget call
to snag the top of a building to bring them upwards, and using high movement speed to reach the back of the t.i.tan's neck, cutting it and killing it.
"I need a weapon"
Looking around his surrounding, Lin Xii found an old black umbrella, he then immediately took it in his hand.
Having its food escaping from its mouth, the t.i.tan did not give up. As its body could not enter the small shop, the t.i.tan then proceed to directly attack the building, smas.h.i.+ng the roof with its enormous hands. Under the t.i.tan's huge strength, the whole building shook vigorously, dust bellowing about.
Xu Miao screamed with a ear piercing scream again, her whole body s.h.i.+vering with fear.
Lin Xii ran outside, and threw the umbrella into the air and landing it on the rooftop. He then climbed the wall with his bare hands and feet, and reached the rooftop within 3 seconds!
The enormous palm slammed down, and with a roll he dodged the hit and picked up the umbrella. Rolling up, he kicked the ground with gusto, and jumped 10 meters into the air like a bullet!
"Right here, and DIE!"
With a angry roar, he landed on the back of the head of the t.i.tan, while controlling his center of gravity, he thrust the umbrella like a spear underneath his target dead center.
Blood splattered!
First the tip of the umbrella deeply pierced into the flesh of the meat, and following the momentum as he drop from the back of the t.i.tan's neck, the tip of the umbrella slashed out a chunk of meat.
From within the wounds showed a large amount of red flesh slashed into half, there were some bits of bones that originated from the spine came out together with the gus.h.i.+ng blood.
"Bam!"
Due to the extra strength that Lin Xii put into, he falled onto the ground harshly as he could not control his fall. He then roll around a few times, finally stopping as his waist hit a electric pole, and spitting out a mouth of blood.
Following up was the sound of a larger drop, Lin Xii looked up wearily with a mouthful of blood, and saw the fall of a 10 meter tall t.i.tan corpse. It felled like a mini avalanche, and after spasming for a bit, it stay still.
"How is it possible? You, you killed a t.i.tan?" Xu Miao exclaimed as she ran out of the shop with her mouth wide open, enough to stuff an egg in it.
"Sorry, but could you help me up?"
Due to him hitting the electric pole as he rolled earlier, Lin Xii's back was hurting him alot, there was definitely a few cracks to his bones somewhere.
Restraining her shock and curiosity, Xu Miao ran over to her and helped him up.
At this moment, Lin Xii was slightly surprised, as the dead t.i.tan's body was surrounded by smoke and turned into light particle and scattered, as if there was nothing there in the first place!
As Xu Miao was a girl, when she saw the scene of the t.i.tan's disappearance, she unconsciously develop a sense of dependency on Lin Xii. She asked "What do we do now?"
Lin Xii was thinking about the disappearance of the t.i.tan's body, and how did it disappear in light particle. He heard her, and replied "Let’s go into the shop first, and stay hidden at least. You said your father was going to pick you up right? If you wandered around, you might missed each other."
"En."
As he possessed the Progenitor Viruses high regenerative ability, within this short period of time his pain almost disappear. With Xu Miao a.s.sistance, Lin Xii walked into the dust-filled shop, and suddenly he smelled something weird.
"What's that smell?"
Lin Xii couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows, he noticed the source of the smell came from his side. Looking beside him, he saw Xu Miao's skirt has a patch of something wet on it.
Noticing his stare, Xu Miao felt the blood rus.h.i.+ng to her face, she fl.u.s.tered and replied "No-nothing! Right, it must be the smell you got when you came out of the t.i.tan's mouth, definitely that! Ahahahaha……"
Seeing the face of someone who is about to cry, Lin Xii did not make any further inquiry.
His heart felt heavy as he thought of the battle that occurred just now.
[According to the anime, t.i.tan can be categorized into many different types. The one that appeared in the school was a colossus t.i.tan, a special type, and the one I killed was a normal type.]
[A pure t.i.tan, a normal type, and lacking any intelligence, body size ranging from 3 to 15 meters. These, are the weakest out of all the t.i.tans.]
[It died with a hit due to me jumping in the air using the roof as a jumping platform. Otherwise, I could not reach the back of its neck. Also I managed to find something that acts as a weapon, there was definitely luck.]
[If it repeated again, I may not succeed.]
[Anyways, at the very least I obtained some strength! With the techniques that I may develop in the future, who is to say that I cannot kill stronger t.i.tans. The seed that I got as an Evolutionary definitely has a huge growing s.p.a.ce.]
[Compared to those who died, or those who got a low star rating ability, I am definitely more lucky.]
Lin Xii was thinking to himself, and Xu Miao was sizing up him secretly beside him.
This was someone who was low key, introverted, and not attracting any attention in the school, and he killed a t.i.tan! With just a umbrella, he managed to slay that scary monster! Right, cutting the back of the neck, anyone who watched the anime knew that.
But the back of a t.i.tan's neck, was it really that easy to cut?
Xu Miao was filled with curiosity towards Lin XIi, she wanted to ask but couldn't manage to open her mouth. Because, she wasn't familiar with the boy, she doesn't even know his name just now.
And this was her cla.s.smate.
"He's definitely angry, deep down."
Xu Miao was feeling low-spirited, she felt regret, that why didn't she notice this silent cla.s.smate of her's earlier……it seems she was too prideful and stuck up before……
"Miao Miao!"
A middle aged man rushed into the store, the man was largely build, roughly 1.85 meters tall, with a broad shoulders and a stern looking face. His face was dripped with sweat, and he gave a look of relieved and sighed when he finally saw Xu Miao.
"Dad!"
Xu Miao stood up with excitement "You came this fast!"
"I was driving here and the car got slammed by a t.i.tan in the middle of the road, thank G.o.d your dad was an instructor before this, I jumped and wasn't injured." The man then noticed Lin Xii who was leaning on the wall nearby, he frowned, "This person here is……"
The wound that Lin Xii got from the incident with the electric pole was healed, and the energy that he used from killing the t.i.tan was recovered by abit.
With his current stat, even if he encounter a normal t.i.tan there wouldn't be any danger, at the very least he can run away–The Progenitor Virus gave him agility and speed that is many times the normal human.
That's why, he's preparing to go home.
Even though his house is small, cold, and devoid of any other human beings, its still his home.
"It's nice to meet you sir, my name is Lin Xii, Xu Miao's cla.s.smate. We both dodge in this small shop when we were escaping." Lin Xii took the umbrella in his name and said "I am going to go now, see you."
"Ah, wait!" Seeing Lin Xii was about to leave, Xu Miao was suddenly feeling anxious, she hesitated for a moment, and asked "Uh…….didn't you said you did not have any family member? Why not come over to my house…….I……"
The middle aged man was surprised, he knows his daughter was as prideful as a swan, and here she was inviting a boy willingly to her house and stay?
Could it be her boyfriend?
The man suddenly appraisingly look at the teenage boy.
Looking at Xu Miao's hopeful eyes, and thinking back to earlier that she couldn't even speak out his name, Lin Xii was feeling irritated for some reason.
"Its alright, we are not even familiar and its would be rude to bother, anyways I am used to being alone."
Lin Xii smiled slightly, and left taking the umbrella.
Seeing his daughter dejected face, the middle aged man called out "Miao Miao, Miao Miao?"
"Ugh……."
"This expression does not look like the daughter I know."
Gathering her thoughts, Xu Miao reluctantly explained "Dad, what were you thinking……We were hiding in the shop earlier and a t.i.tan found us, I was about to get eaten……and it was him who killed the t.i.tan."
"Killed the t.i.tan?"
The man was stunned, and he couldn't believe it "How is that possible! Does he have a gun? No, a normal bullet cannot kill this kind of huge monster, stop playing jokes with me……unless he has a RPG."
"It’s true, he killed the t.i.tan, with an umbrella."
Listening to Xu Miao explaining, the middle-aged man sighed "It looks like, with the monster suddenly coming and the apocalypse, there are also some people who will stand out of the rest, like a s.h.i.+ning star in the sky……it’s a pity that the boy could not stay……"
"I wonder if we would meet again."
"Even if we did, perhaps during that time, our status would be vastly different……Hai, Miao Miao, it looks like your relations.h.i.+p with him in the past wasn't really good huh."
Xu Miao felt wronged and said "He was originally silent and introverted, I was so outstanding and there was always a group of boys surrounding me constantly, and that was infuriating. Where would I have the time to know him? I couldn't even call out his name just earlier, he's definitely angry."
The middle aged man shook his head "There are some chance that once slipped away, it would be hard to catch hold of it again, anyways, let's not talk about this……Miao Miao, you still have your mum and dad, no matter what the world becomes, we will protect you."
Rubbing his daughter head, a smile of a doting parent appeared on the middle aged man's face.
It’s just that……facing this kind of world, how much confidence would there be?
It's really a pity……
