The snow fell heavier and heavier at night, and even the snow melting function of the car could hardly keep up with the speed of snow accumulation. Finally, only a few hundred meters away from the base, both cars could no longer move.
Lan Qian stepped on the accelerator, the energy of the fire source stone had been completely exhausted, and the frozen tires were skidding in place.
Lan Qian said to Cheng Yue: "Brother Yue, there are only 500 meters left. We can only abandon the car and walk. The frozen tires will not melt for a while, and the snow is getting heavier now. Let's take advantage of the fact that the snow is not too deep now."
We must leave soon."
Ji Zhan looked through the car window at the world composed of darkness and white snow outside. When Lan Qian said that the depth of the snow was not deep, she meant that it was not high enough to exceed human height. But in fact, there was snow outside now.
The depth is already over 1.2 meters.
"Get off the car and walk." Cheng Yue ordered.
The car doors were also blocked by snow, but fortunately, both cars were equipped with flamethrowers, and two members of the team also had fire powers.
With the help of the flamethrower and supernatural powers, they successfully got out of the off-road vehicle, and the depth of the snow was already up to their waists.
With flamethrowers opening the way, the path they were on wasn't too difficult, but it was too easy for monsters to hide in places like this, and no one could guarantee whether a monster would jump out next to them.
Qi Huan and Zhao Ziwei had already received first aid treatment on the way back, and were carried on someone else's back to continue moving forward.
Ji Zhan looked at Qi Huan and Zhao Ziwei. Since Jing Sa had said that in the car just now, it meant that the two of them were important witnesses who could testify against Jing Sa. They must be safe and sound.
"Ahhhh——"
Suddenly, the team member who was walking at the front and cleaning the road with a flamethrower screamed.
The most worrying thing happened. After the flamethrower melted the snow in front, a monster huddled under the white snow extended its mouthparts and bit the team member's face directly.
Others reacted quickly and fired, and those with fire powers also dropped fire on the monster's body to quickly burn it.
After being injured, the monster twisted its body desperately and loosened its grip on the person. However, half of the team member's head was eaten. Even if it was snatched from the monster's mouth, there was no way he could be saved now.
When Lan Qian saw her teammate sacrificed, she gritted her teeth and cursed with red eyes, then picked up the flamethrower and burned the monster.
The monster struggled desperately in the flames, the surrounding snow melted by the fire, and the monster's entire body was exposed.
The monster's body is like a giant worm. It was curled up under the white snow before, so it was not easy to be found. But now it stretches its body to about three meters. It has no limbs and no skin on its body. It looks like a human's internal organs are exposed.
, you can even see its stomach that was moving just because of eating.
It seems to have no eyes, only two round mouthparts at the head and tail, and the mouthparts are covered with sharp teeth like long thorns.
Everyone shot at the worm monster. The location of the crystal core of this monster is recorded in the monster encyclopedia. However, the flesh on the worm monster is very thick, so thick that it can hinder the trajectory of the bullet, causing the bullet to stagnate in its body.
Come down.
The flames slowly extinguished, and the burned parts of the worm monster grew back, and then rushed in the direction of Qi Huan and Zhao Ziwei.
When the team members carrying Qi Huan and Zhao Ziwei saw the worm monster suddenly attacking, they turned around and ran away. Qi Huan and Zhao Ziwei on their backs became the worm monster's first choice.
When Ji Zhan was about to take action, Jing Sa grabbed her first and said, "Don't worry."
Ji Zhan was stunned and saw that Cheng Yue and the others had already rushed forward. Although their personal abilities were far inferior to those of Ji Zhan and Jing Sa, their long-term military training allowed them to respond promptly and cooperate tacitly in the face of emergencies.
.
Lan Qian's teammates temporarily put down Qi Huan and Zhao Ziwei, and then ran in another direction while shooting to attract the monster's attention.
Cheng Yue and Lan Qian approached the worm monster from two different directions with small bombs. Several vein-like tentacles protruded from the worm monster's back, trying to catch them.
Cheng Yue pulled out the thorn, pulled the tentacle and stabbed it hard. Then, using the force of the tentacle retraction, he jumped onto the back of the worm monster.
Although Cheng Yue is not an evolved person, his physical fitness is extremely strong and his skills are not inferior to those of an evolved person.
Because the worm monster has no skin, its internal organs are exposed. General Cheng Yue installed a thorn on the wall to extend the attack range, then he held the gun in his backhand and stabbed the worm monster's stomach with force.
The worm monster's stomach was like a punctured balloon, all the stinky filth inside flowed out, and the worm monster's movements became sluggish and weak.
Lan Qian took the opportunity to install a small bomb at the core of the worm monster, and then rescued Cheng Yue. When the bomb exploded, the two of them jumped out and successfully escaped.
The bomb exploded the worm monster's flesh, and the crystal core was finally exposed. Cheng Yue fired at it until the crystal core was completely shattered.
Although monsters are scary, they are not invincible. Human wisdom is infinite, and as long as humans keep thinking, they still have a chance of winning.
Ji Zhan was a little impressed by Cheng Yue's tacit cooperation. Jing Sa said to Ji Zhan: "We have no obligation to take responsibility for their lives. There is no so-called savior in this world. Those who will survive in the future will be in the apocalypse."
People who struggle desperately and constantly change themselves.”
Ji Zhan was stunned for a moment, then responded in a low voice.
After solving the worm monster, the team stopped for a moment to regroup.
One person in Lan Qian's team died, and now it is impossible to drag another body forward in this situation.
Lan Qian gritted her teeth to hold back her tears, then removed the terminal from her teammate's wrist, and then ruthlessly burned him on the spot.
Compared to staying in the wild and waiting to be eaten by monsters, burning on the spot is a kind of salvation and relief.
"Let's go." Cheng Yue patted Lan Qian's shoulder and said without looking at the still burning corpse.
Lan Qian swallowed the sourness in her heart, took one last look at the fire, and then left with Cheng Yue.
Afterwards, Ji Zhan and Jing Sa were replaced by Ji Zhan and Jing Sa, who used flamethrowers to clear the way. The two of them walked side by side in front. If they encountered the situation just now, they would be able to deal with it in time with their abilities.
The short distance of 500 meters can usually be covered in a few minutes, but due to the obstacles of snow and monsters, it took about half an hour to cover half of the distance.
"what is that?"
Suddenly, someone in the team saw several black figures nearby. Due to the heavy ice in the protective glasses in the snow, their field of vision was greatly reduced. For a while, they could not distinguish what was not far away.
Ji Zhan glanced at it, then turned the hand holding the flamethrower, and the fire drove away the darkness.
Although it only passed by in a flash, it also allowed everyone to see those dark shadows clearly.
It's people.
It's a person who was frozen into an ice sculpture.
