Chapter 9:

Black Street is one of the darkest and disordered areas in Spring City.
Most of the people living here are the people at the bottom of this bustling fortress. They don't have any powerful abilities and no special means of making a living. Some are even ordinary people without any abilities. Can only manage the dirtiest and most tiring jobs in the entire town, and barely survive.
Xiao Chau has lived on this black street since he was a child. He doesn't remember who his parents are and he has no names. Because he was accustomed to petty theft and was often chased and beaten on the street, he got a casual name called Xiaochai.
A seven or eight-year-old boy squatted across from Laosan's grocery store, drooling at the glass jar with colorful candies in front of the store. The thick glass jar was hooped with iron wire, and a large brass lock was locked, indicating that the jar contained precious food that was not easily touched.
He hadn't tasted this kind of sweet food a few times since he was a kid. The chasing at this moment can't help but think of the new friend I met a few days ago. The man broke his hands and lay alone in the small dark room, looking a bit pitiful.
But someone bought candy for him.
It would be great if someone was willing to buy sugar for me, Xiao Chase swallowed.
That friend was so stingy that he wouldn't even want to score one for himself. But besides that, he can be regarded as a good friend, at least he can listen to himself quietly, unlike others who either beat or despise him. It's a pity that I went again by myself recently. That friend no longer lives in that house and I don't know where he went.
Xiao Chasing strolled back to his residence. In a shack piled with waste, his residence looked a little weird. If you look carefully, you can see that the small tent crowded in the corner is made of low-level monsters. The bones of the rib cage were used as a stent, pieced together to make up for various broken monster shell fragments, and there was a device that could barely lock the door at the door leaf that was slanted and ventilated.
Five years ago, a huge green moon appeared in the sky inexplicably, and an emerald-colored magic seed descended from the sky. Since the arrival of the magic seed, the ecological environment on the planet has been drastically changed. More than two-thirds of human beings have been demonized into bizarre creatures. Many years of human civilization have been subverted overnight and entered the wasteland era.
As the years have changed, the materials left over from the golden age have gradually become scarce, and humans have begun to learn to extract materials needed for life in the new ecological environment. A large number of solid or special-purpose monster bodies have been fully utilized by humans in all aspects of fighting and life. Although there are a large number of monsters, and there are also a large number of professional hunters who frequently engage with monsters, this kind of precious materials that can only be obtained by fighting is not easy to see in places like the black street.
I don't know where Xiao Chai is taking the sheep, getting so many demonic waste materials that others can't use, and even pieced together a relatively solid "house" for him. In the golden age, for a child his age, his parents might have to spend money to send him to a building block hobby class. But in just five years, the strong adaptability of mankind has been demonstrated in this child. He is less than ten years old and not only can survive such a harsh environment, he can even do his best to improve his living and living environment.
Xiao Chai got into the space and opened the door curtain made of rags. In the narrow space, except for a small piece of rags piled up for sleeping, it was empty, and the rest was piled up messy for him to collect. Waste. There is almost no place to stay. From the scraps of the various low-level demons that have been transformed, it can be seen that this child has strong hands-on ability and possesses the ability to melt demons. A dilapidated refrigerator that has completely rusted is his table with all kinds of treasures he collected. For example, some boxes containing marbles, toy robots with two broken legs.
Today, beside the rusty remote-controlled car, lay a transparent plastic bag with its mouth open, and several colorful candies rolled out.
Xiao Chai unbelievably grabbed the beautifully packaged bag. Each candy in the bag is crystal clear and bright in color, as if it has been carefully carved out of multicolored gems. The little boy twisted a pill, carefully licked it with his tongue, a sweet smell spreading along the taste buds in his mouth.
He opened the door in a puzzled way and looked out.
Outside the house was still littered with trash and mosquitoes lingering in the dim street. The neighbor Zhang Da Pang came out carrying the toilet, poured a bucket of dirt directly into the ditch not far away, and took a mouthful of sputum in his direction. By the way, he cursed a little vulgar.
The little boy did not understand where this pocket of dreamy sweetness came from.
On the dirty street, a strand of yellow sand was caught in the cross-flowing water and disappeared.
At this moment, in the dense jungle outside Spring City, the battle between humans and monsters is in full swing.
A heat wave hit the face and swept Chu Qianxun from a high place.
Chu Qianxun did not dare to stay for a moment, and rolled longitudinally, avoiding the huge monster that was rushing towards her.
This monster is tall and has a hard outer shell. It is full of raging flames, and it rushes all the way violently, almost no one can grab its edge.
Chu Qianxun wiped her face. Her back and shoulders were burned by the flames, and her leg bones were broken. Every step she took was a deep tingling pain.
"Chihiro, you retreat." Gao Yan pulled her into the battlefield.
The monster their team is responsible for dealing with is called Blunt Walker, and it is a Tier 5 flame monster. The defense is high and the attack is high, the red hot magma flows in the rock-like body, and where the footprints pass, the flames are raging, and the vegetation is gray, which is difficult to deal with.
But it was actually just a small in this demon hunt.
Not far from them, above the dense forest, hovering high is a small monster with wings on its back.
The monster has a beautiful appearance and a slender figure, with a face very close to a human female and a half-insect body.
At this moment it is hanging high in the air, the wings on its back are humming, and its eyes are spinning a circle of black and yellow intersecting concentric circles. Its exquisite body is wrapped with delicate yellow markings, and its limbs are as long as insects. , With sharp barbs.
This is a ninth-order monster called the Sleepless One, and it seems to be the main target of the hunt. The most difficult thing about this kind of monster is not her own combat ability, but her unique control ability, which can control a large number of low-level monsters to attack humans. Each sleepless person controls the number of monsters and its level. a proportion.
The sleepless of Tier 9 is terrifying, it brings an overwhelming army of monsters.
The Lord of Spring City Huan Shengjie spent huge sums of money to recruit masters from the nearby major well-known mercenary organizations to jointly encircle and suppress the monsters.
And the small team composed of saints of Chu Qianxun's level is just responsible for separating and blocking the low-level monsters summoned by the sleepless, and creating as much convenience as possible for the fighting of the big guys.
Chu Qianxun's back collar was pulled by someone, and she threw it away from a distance. She shot back in the air with a stab, and the blade brought out a gust of wind, carrying sand and dust along the way.
Almost at the same time, the overwhelming flames burned towards the place where she had just stayed. The flames rushed against the gust of wind and were changed in one direction, allowing the saints standing there to retreat in a short gap.
If you take a step slower, even if the saint's body is strong, it will inevitably be roasted and peeled off by the flames from the monster's mouth.
The one who pulled her away was a power saint from the same team, named Lin Sheng, because they belonged to the same team and had cooperated many times. They had been in a tacit understanding with each other and resolved a crisis for everyone in time.
The two young saints who belonged to another team, but because of lack of experience, were unable to avoid them, and were knocked to the ground by the flames of diversion.
The blunt walker squatted down with his huge body. The experienced demon hunters all gave a thud at the same time,
Sure enough, the next moment this monster used its signature nirvana, and suddenly rushed at the two small bodies that fell on the ground too late to get up.
The rectangular columnar space above the monster is distorted, like a huge boulder on the mountain, pressing down on its body, bending the flame-like body that can burn everything, but it can't stop the monster from running in the violent turmoil.
Gao Yan is fully exerting her space gravity ability, trying to drag the monster that runs away and save the young warrior who can't escape.
Chu Qianxun flipped a pair of silver-white short knives with both hands and slashed in the air. Two rows of dozens of wind blades, butterfly wings staggered forward, split the flames all the way, hit the body of the monster, the crisscross wind blades cut open the monster. Rocky shell.
In Gao Yan’s exclamation, the wind saint Chu Qianxun rubbed his body again, his dexterous body turned sharply, bringing a hurricane in the air, and the white wind blade pressed by the air pressure continued to move towards the monster’s abdomen. It is the location of the Blunt Walker Demon Seed, and also its weakness.
A huge opening was cut in the abdomen of the Blunt Walker, revealing a corner of the green magic seed. Chu Qianxun was overjoyed, and despite the burning of the flames, he stretched out his hand to get the magic seed.
It just so happened that at this moment, the sleepless person above the jungle uttered a long and deep cry.
That is a sonic attack peculiar to the sleepless.
Despite being far away, everyone put earplugs in their ears beforehand. Chu Qianxun, who has a huge difference in level, still felt extremely distressed in her chest at the moment the chirping sounded. Her head was dizzy and fell from the air.
She was too close to the monster, the ground was full of red flames, and huge palms burning with raging fire grabbed her from the sky.
"Chihiro!"
She even heard Gao Yan's worried voice.
The sky dimmed for a moment, dense snow and ice fell from the sky, and heavy rain-like ice hit the monster one after another.
The blunt walker uttered a huge roar, and the flames in his body were extinguished by the frost that covered the earth, and thick black smoke rose.
The flames burning on the ground suddenly disappeared, and even a layer of frost was formed in an instant. Numerous huge columnar ice ridges continued to extend and grow around the monsters, and frozen into a huge ice.
Numerous six-sided icicles scattered from the ground to all sides formed a huge ice. The terrifying monster that had just burned was completely frozen in the heart-shaped ice.
"Heart of Winter! Heart of Winter!"
"That's the heart of Winter by the Blizzard Group's big trick Changjiang Xiaojie."
The countless low-level saints standing on the ground were shocked by this astonishing scene. They all raised their heads with admiration to look at the man who appeared at the top of a tall tree at some unknown time.
The man was very young, with a little frivolous youth, and let out a cold snort of disdain from his nose.
This world is a world of heroes based on strength. Although standing alone on the top of the tree is a young boy who is less than twenty years old, no one dares to despise him.
This is the first strong team in Spring City, the group of the Blizzard Mercenary Corps Changjiang Xiaojie.
When everyone's eyes were attracted by the figure on the top of the tree, Chu Qianxun was touching the ground beneath him in a puzzled manner.
When she fell from the sky, everyone's eyes were attracted by the blizzard falling from the sky.
Only she could clearly see that a burst of yellow sand burst out of the ground. Her body that fell heavily was caught by the soft force. The yellow sand not only caught her, did not let her fall into the fire on the ground, but also timely blocked her from the rain and frost falling from the sky.
Chu Qianxun got up from the scattered pile of sand and looked around, not seeing her imaginary figure in the crowd.
