Chapter 95 Crossing the Sea of ??Corpses
After passing through the central patio without any danger, everyone completely relaxed.
It seems that Xiaolan's judgment is very correct. As long as the smell on his body is covered, these inferior mutant creatures cannot recognize the identity of the public.
My heart became much more open-minded in an instant, and everyone moved in fearlessly in this big shopping mall. Although there were still many scattered parasitic human figures wandering around, they all regarded everyone as creatures like themselves and did not notice anything strange at all.
After walking like this for more than ten minutes, everyone gradually moved away from the center of the mall. They were about to survive this dangerous journey, but the number of parasitic human figures in front of them was increasing.
After passing through waves of parasitic human figures, everyone in the team had already felt something was wrong with the atmosphere. Logically speaking, searching for materials usually concentrates on the center of the mall. Why are there more monsters on the edge of this mall instead of gathering more...
This problem has been bothering everyone until-
A large cluster of monsters as deep as swamps appeared in everyone's sight!
"Damn..."
He stopped unconsciously. Even though the lonely wolf was brave, he was shocked by the purgatory disaster in front of him.
Everyone following him also had a solemn expression on his face at this time, especially the driver. He had never experienced much danger before when he saw this situation, his legs could not stop shaking.
“Too…too many…”
Xiaolan was almost losing his calmness at this moment. The dense cluster of monsters in front of him blocked the way for everyone to escape. They were all wearing damaged isolation suits. By comparing the styles, we can know that these people and the guys in the mall should belong to the same team.
This is an indescribable cluster of heresy, men, women, young and old, all ages, but at this time they had all died and turned into monsters. No one left his mind, and the only thing that was filled with the outlet air was a bloodthirsty breath.
The long-standing corroded glass has been damaged by the impact of the sea of corpses. Of course, it is also possible that the survivors in this team used weapons to break the traces left by their weapons when they escaped. However, no matter what, the remaining monsters are now very difficult for everyone. Their positions are dense and widely distributed, and they have completely blocked the exit on this side.
If they avoid the detours of the corpse, it would be meaningless for everyone to enter the mall. They chose this path to solve the time. Now if they turn around temporarily, some of their previous efforts will be in vain.
The streets connecting the north and south ends of this mall are far away from the target meeting place. The current east exit is said to be the only choice for everyone.
However, before making the decision, Mu Yu asked everyone very fairly about his opinions, and finally got a veto, which was voted by the driver.
"Why are you looking at me? I just don't want to die!"
Noticed that everyone was looking at him, the driver defended himself in awkward and angrily.
"You are all crazy now. When you pass through such a dense sea of corpses, we will definitely be discovered by them! I think, why don't we take a detour and be farther away, but the food and water on our bodies are enough for us to hold on for a while..."
"I don't think so."
The old manager shook his head and replied directly, "The more dangerous the situation is, the more we need to meet with other teams quickly. The danger in this city has exceeded the company's initial estimate. If we do not join other teams as soon as possible, we will die here sooner or later."
"But if we leave here now, we will die soon!"
The driver continued to argue with his neck, his face red and black, and his face was very strange.
Qu Xiao could see that this person was very scared at the moment. In fact, he was not much better than this driver, but Qu Xiao was more willing to believe Xiaolan's judgment. Since geniuses think it's okay, he thought he could take a gamble.
What the old manager said makes sense. Everyone’s important task now is to meet with other search and rescue teams. The city is so dangerous during the day, and by night, the situation will definitely become worse.
If you take a long way, you will definitely not be able to reach this distance before the next day. Therefore, in the long run, adventure at this time is also a choice worth trying.
Everyone was trying to convince the driver to accept the proposal. The latter's ideological work was not easy to do at all, because he did not believe the words of the people around him, and he finally made the decision to stay where he was.
Seeing this, everyone had to accept his choice temporarily. Everyone, including Qu Xiao, agreed not to allow him to participate in the first round of trial insurance. However, if the plan goes smoothly, everyone promised to stay in place to pick up the driver in the team, which was equivalent to giving the latter a round of insurance. If he was seen through after entering the sea of corpses, he would not be pulled into the water with him.
The driver could only nod and accept this.
Although he didn't want to enter this sea of corpses at all, he knew that he could not convince him when he saw that everyone had made up his mind.
He was already very polite to him, and the driver also understood that this was the biggest concession he could make.
He watched everyone leave the safe area, then turned his gaze to the sea of corpses. The foul smell was calmly stopped at this time, without any ripples or fluctuations.
It was not until everyone got closer that the parasitic human figures on the edge finally sensed them. They subconsciously turned around, and the corpses around them all looked like everyone was staring at them.
Hold your breath and concentrate...
Everyone had experience in their hearts at this time.
It doesn’t require superb acting skills to deal with these guys. As long as the movement is small enough, you can hide the truth.
Moving and moving little by little, the few people walking in the front of the team had completely sank into the sea of corpses. The people behind also followed, breathing slightly the disgusting smell of the air. Each of them suppressed their steps to the extreme.
The foot boards of the combat boots are very hard, but under the deliberate control of everyone, the movements touching the ground were controlled in a very small decibel range, among which the lone wolf performed the best. This man who looked at the big and thick on weekdays was like an embroidered girl, and every movement made by her body was extremely gentle.
The large machine gun in his hand swung flexibly, like a mountain snake hunting rat, quickly and skillfully avoiding dangerous obstacles in front of him. The guns in the hands of the people behind him are small in size and do not require additional operations. Just by pressing the gun body tightly to yourself, it can prevent it from touching and disturbing the parasitic human figures around him.
Soon, everyone completely sneaked into the sea of corpses.
Seeing this, the driver behind began to revitalize.
At this time, Mu Yu, in the team ahead, had already raised his hand high. This was the signal they had just agreed on. After this signal was sent, everyone would wait for the driver in place for five minutes.
He can choose to keep up or take a detour.
But in fact, there is no choice under this situation. It is undoubtedly more dangerous to go back alone than to cross the corpse tide. Therefore, after a brief hesitation, the driver pulled out his pistol and approached it carefully.
He also imitated everyone just now. The driver carefully controlled the rhythm of his walking. The silence in the air created an extreme depression. Because the parasitic humanoid does not need to supply oxygen through breathing, he could only hear his steps and the movement of exhaling in the driver's ears at this moment.
Fifty meters...
Thirty meters...
Twenty meters...
A minute passed quickly, and the driver finally approached the edge of the sea of corpses and observed these disgusting creatures up close. A moment of grief arose in his heart again.
Breathing began to become disordered, nervous emotions disturbed the driver's thinking, and the foul smell continued to stimulate his sense of smell... Everything around him seemed to be blocking his progress through his senses.
The driver was hesitant again. He suddenly felt that the gun he was holding seemed very ridiculous. With such a number of monsters, the effects of the semi-automatic heat weapon could be ignored. If it was really discovered, the gun in his hand would at most make him die a little more neatly, so as not to experience the pain of being torn to pieces by monsters and eating them.
Or... I actually have a way out.
The driver suddenly had the idea of retreating again at this moment. He suddenly felt that it was a wise path to take a long way by himself.
At least…at least I don’t need to be huddled with these monsters…
The more he thought about it, the more he lost the courage to continue moving forward, and he began to retreat and stay away from the edge of the sea of corpses.
At this time, Qu Xiao noticed the situation outside through the gap between the sea of corpses. After discovering that the driver was retreating, he raised his hand and patted Xiaomei's shoulder lightly, and then gave the latter an intriguing look.
Seeing this, Mu Yu looked a little lonely. She obviously understood what Qu Xiao meant. The driver finally did not muster up the same courage as everyone else. After that, everyone could only express good wishes.
I hope he can arrive at his destination smoothly.
With the help of light gestures, Mu Yu conveyed the instructions to continue moving forward to the team, but just as everyone was about to raise their feet, a crisp "clang" sound suddenly came not far behind him!
Mad, the guy accidentally stepped on the scrap on the ground when he was backing!
Qu Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank, not only him, but the blood temperature of everyone present suddenly dropped to freezing point-
It's over.
Chapter completed!
