Chapter 71: An Unwelcome Demon

  Most variants of the Mutant Hound are solitary hunters, just like other variant creatures. However, if they form a pack, there must be an exceptionally powerful "alpha" leading them. In addition to their physical enhancements, Mutant Hounds also possess an innate talent that becomes even more formidable after undergoing mutation and evolution.

  That's "olfactory enhancement", especially for the smell of blood.

  "It's just a kill of an enhanced zombie, the bloody smell on the military knife can't spread so far, and the high-pressure electric heat on the military knife effectively evaporates the bloody smell. I also made a mental shield, it's impossible to make such a low-level mistake to attract monsters..."

  His eyes gleamed like a bright fire, scanning the surrounding buildings, suddenly accelerating his run, his footsteps creating wind, quickly flying to a wall, and surprisingly stepping on it as if it were flat ground, just like an ancient martial arts master flying over rooftops and walls, all the way up to the third floor before falling down.

  Since the "top-notch" physique of the new human is an existence that breaks through common sense, promotion is not just a strengthening of power and antibodies, but rather a whole with countless subtle changes, which will have this kind of full-body blood vessel genetic mutation, transcending the old era system's super-physique.

  However, these subtle changes can uncover many physical techniques.

  Like Mù Xiāo's current flying eaves and wall-walking skills, as long as you understand how to control your body muscles and blood flow, you can perform some actions that were previously impossible. In the past, even among the strongest SSS-level physical experts in the Federation system, they also had this ability, it's just that none of them were as exaggerated as Mù Xiāo, who could rush up to the third floor without stopping for breath.

  This physical skill requires extremely precise control, and Mu Sheng had used these physical skills countless times before, reaching the point where he could do them at will. So now, he can still easily perform those familiar techniques with ease.

  Mù Xiāo jumped straight up to the third floor, grabbed an electric wire, and swung into a window, entering the room inside. The surroundings were pitch black, with vague messy objects scattered around, indicating that this place had also been through a great chaos. Mù Xiāo didn't have much interest in examining the surroundings, but instead poked his head out of the window to observe the pack of mutated dogs rapidly approaching.

  "Where on earth have these beasts gone?"

  Mushan clearly knew that he couldn't be the target of this group of mutant dogs, there was only one other place that could be their target.

  Mù Xiāo didn't have a keen sense of smell like the Variant Hounds, so he couldn't sniff out the direction of the bloody scent in the air. Of course, if he followed a pack of Variant Hounds, he could find out what their goal was, but Mù Xiāo wasn't interested and didn't have any curiosity.

  Because there are many strange and bizarre things at night, if curiosity is too strong, life will be lost in a minute.

  The sound of horseshoes grew louder and closer, until a pack of over twenty massive dogs, as big as calves, with spiky fur and bloodthirsty eyes, like hellish hounds unleashed, appeared. The mutated canines emitted a violent and frenzied aura, creating a small negative energy field that filled the air with a maddening virus, causing even the surrounding zombies to retreat in fear, unwilling to enter this negative energy field.

  Among them, there was a mutated dog with dark golden fur on its neck, like a lion. Its thick coat seemed to be an extremely thick and heavy armor. Its body was twice as strong as the surrounding mutated dogs. Its blood was fierce and powerful, its limbs were like steel, and it had a huge explosive force. Its mouth was full of sharp teeth, which could easily tear apart any creature with a physical strength below SSS level, including skin, flesh, and even bones. The teeth were also filled with highly corrosive saliva, so if you were bitten, even if you didn't die, the wound would quickly rot away if not treated promptly, eventually turning into a mutated monster.

  This mutant dog is undoubtedly the leader, if it's said to be a giant wolf, some people would believe it, but this mutant dog looks different from wolves, not as ferocious, but rather has an extremely ugly and terrifying ghost face that can scare timid people to death.

  "This must be the original form of the variant dog, no wonder it has such a big bloody aura. I really don't know which rich family raised this guard dog, probably that family is reaping what they sowed. Mu Xiao took one look and understood, the central giant variant dog was actually a fierce breed to begin with, after evolving and mutating, it naturally became a high-level existence among its kind."

  Suddenly, that mutated Tibetan Mastiff raised its head abruptly, its furious eyes darting about like torches, gazing at the multi-story buildings, but seemingly unable to determine a specific direction.

  "Damn it!"

  Mushan felt something was off in an instant, and his body immediately retreated into the dark room. Even a strand of spiritual energy emerged to cover up all the aura on his body.

  After a while, there was no barking sound from outside as imagined. Mu Xiao put down his fighting preparations because after many battles, he naturally understood the meaning of the calls of mutant monsters, such as attack, retreat, intimidation and other meanings. Each call had different volumes and tones...

  The evolution of the new human is not just about blood and genes, but also about the synchronized growth of brain domains and spiritual intelligence. If you want to learn something, you only need to focus your mind and you will be able to grasp it quickly, even to the point of understanding the underlying principles.

  Those vast battle experiences have given Mu Shao an instinctive intuition as if aided by gods.

  Waaah...…

  Mushu hid in the dark room, leaning against the wall without sticking his head out, because that group of mutant dogs was passing by, but some mutant dogs actually made a disheartened and helpless sound.

  "Huh? Something seems off..."

  Mushan felt a sense of doubt in his heart, recalling the fierce and frantic barking of the mutated dog when it appeared earlier, which had also evoked a feeling of discord within him.

  As soon as he thought of this, he suddenly became clear about what was going on.

  That ferocious barking is just a show of false bravado, it means that this pack of mutant dogs are afraid of something!

  "No way! These variant dogs aren't chasing prey, but escaping from becoming prey!"

  Muxiao Mingwu was startled for a moment, because if there were unknown creatures chasing this group of mad and violent mutant dogs, they would definitely be terrifying existences.

  Even if Mu Xiao himself jumped out now, with extreme intimidation and mental power not reserved, it's not certain that he could scare this group of mutated dogs with crazy negative emotions into a state of fear, let alone make them run away with pitiful whimpers.

  Mutated dogs must have symptoms of madness, especially after evolving mutations, these symptoms will evolve into extreme manic violent symptoms, so mutated dogs rarely show fear emotions.

  When something normal becomes abnormal, it's not a good sign.

  I have a thrilling feeling, there must be an ominous terror ahead, let's leave here first... Mu Xiao has encountered too many unknown terrors and can't confirm what exactly is chasing this pack of mutant dogs, unless the thing approaches personally.

  But he didn't want to know at all what it was.

  As those mutant dogs just disappeared into the dark night, Mu Xiao immediately came to the window, ready to leave this place.

  At the moment I was about to jump out of the window, Mu Xiao's blood gas stagnated, her scalp numbed, and she suddenly retreated back into the dark room. Without sparing any energy, she released her mental powers, spreading them throughout the entire room like spider silk. Her body dodged the obstacles in the room with lightning speed, her mind racing at high speed, realizing that it was too late to escape the room. She directly retreated to the darkest and most secluded corner, curled up into a ball, minimizing her exposed body, instantly withdrawing her mental powers, wrapping herself in a thick spider web-like aura, rendering her completely still and silent, like a lifeless object covered in dust in the room.

  Mu Xiao had just finished everything when a large group of zombies outside let out a mournful and terrifying despairing howl, rising and falling like the shrill cries of evil spirits, making one's heart tremble. The next moment, a large group of zombies suddenly stopped, as if their throats had been cut off like a slaughtered rooster.

  The air seemed to have a kind of mysterious and eerie, cold and chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine, with an icy chill that made the blood vessels almost freeze.

  At this time, a chilling and icy aura appeared on the outside street, as if there was a pair of cold eyes scanning the surrounding buildings. It seemed to be an extremely evil entity from the underworld, carrying with it resentment, decay, curses, misfortune, hatred, and despairing death energy. The entire street quickly filled with a corrosive negative magnetic field that made people uncontrollably generate desperate emotions that led to suicidal thoughts, even inducing a realistic hallucination of hell descending upon the world.

  Vessel of evil!

  The source of all negative emotions!

  "It's impossible! Impossible! The end of the world is just a new beginning! How could such an ominous and terrifying existence appear! It's completely impossible for it to awaken at this time!" Mu Xiao's heart was racing with shock, his heart almost jumping out of his throat!

  This endless, soul-crushing negative emotion, this terrifying feeling... Mu Xi had already sensed what kind of ominous and terrifying thing it was, but he still couldn't believe that the starting moment had arrived ahead of time - "The demon that all evolving creatures do not want to see!"

  Calm down! Calm down! Calm down!

  At this time, it's not about considering where "it" came from, but how to escape its eerie perception...

  His face turned pale with cold sweat, his heart was chilled to the bone, his mind and spirit were completely calm and steady, covering up all his vital energy, his blood and breath were controlled at an extremely low frequency, as if he were dead, because once he made a slight mistake, he might not be able to leave this street alive.

  Yes!

  With Mu Shao's current combat strength, there is no chance of winning at all.

  Due to that unknown extremely evil thing outside, it has already reached a "realm" that far surpasses Mu Shao, this initial new human who doesn't even have a realm.

  So, Mu Xiao was so frightened that he didn't dare make a single sound or relax for a moment, his entire spirit was tense.

  "I hope that the miraculous formula made from the original blood of the White Lotus, combined with my own initial cultivation of spiritual power, will have an unexpected effect! Otherwise, it will be hard to escape the 'Devil's Transformation' mysterious and unpredictable mental probing..."

  The wooden Xiao's heart is as still as dead water, silently thinking.
