The first team that set out from Jixi Town discovered the infected not long after leaving the town. It was only a few kilometers away from the town, and the town's Morgan Building could even be seen in the distance.
Phoebe was driving the pickup truck, and Fran and the other three were already in the truck.
Before setting off, the four-person team discussed tactics together and agreed that they should make good use of their ability to be immune to screams and actively trigger a scream.
If you take this opportunity to find the Screamers, then execute the decapitation plan. As long as the Screamers are killed, this group of infected people will not be able to move in a direction, and they will naturally lose their threat to Jixi Town.
Phoebe drove the car close to the group of infected people and then turned around. In order to save time, everyone did not wait for the infected people to approach on their own. Instead, the pickup truck quickly reversed and approached proactively.
When the pickup truck was less than 50 meters away from the group of infected people, the infected people changed from walking to trotting, but the screams did not sound.
It seems that Screamer is still cooling down.
Erica shouted to Phoebe: "Phoebe, keep backing up and get closer."
Without Erica's command, Phoebe and Egg participated in a complete battle in the carriage that day.
The correct operation only needs to be demonstrated once.
Phoebe recalled Joanna's performance that day. The first thing was to close the distance, and the second thing was to maintain a stable distance of 20 meters.
Vance's pickup truck has an automatic transmission, which makes it easier to control the speed than the manual pickup truck. Phoebe slowly reversed the truck. At this time, she was only 30 meters away from the infected group.
"Close enough." Andy turned around and couldn't help shouting at Phoebe. Although Andy had several experiences fighting infected people, he had never played so wildly.
During the few times Andy went on field trips, Egger was always able to kill infected people just within reach. He had never faced such a large group of infected people at such a close distance.
Although Iger has been a little less confident recently, he always feels that his bigness has declined and plug-ins have been downgraded to plug-ins.
What kind of king's bloodline, what kind of genetic evolution, and what kind of system bonuses are there for the time travellers? I only have one plug-in, which is useless.
Egger's feeling is his own, but everyone knows that for any team, a marksman is an extremely rare talent that can only be found.
When a marksman gives up the pursuit of one shot and one headshot, the shooting efficiency can actually be further improved. By appropriately reducing the aiming time and increasing the number of shots, the overall damage output will be higher.
After Iger switched to MP5, he quickly fell in love with rapid burst shooting. In the time it took him to fire two shots with an AR-7, he can now fire out 4-5 bullets at will. Even though the hit rate may be lower, but in unit time
The absolute number of hits increased.
As long as the marksman is given an excellent weapon and sufficient ammunition, he can achieve the efficiency of an army by himself.
In the past, this would have been called a thousand horses riding a horse.
The talent of marksman is so dazzling that it overshadows Egger's other ability.
In fact, compared to shooting, housekeeping is what he is best at.
He is obviously a cultural person, but he turns out to be the one who can fight the best.
Egg, the best shooter, is not here now. Although Andy made a firm promise at yesterday's meeting, he knows that if he wants to win this battle gloriously, he will have to fight for his life.
Fran was lying on the newly replenished supplies in the carriage. The shotgun was in his hand, and the scope had been removed. At such a close distance, the machine sight was more useful.
After Erica and Andy chose their aiming positions, they each fired.
"Snapped."
"Snapped."
An infected person walking in the front row collapsed.
Andy was a little embarrassed. The fallen infected person was not the one he was targeting.
Compared to being able to do any chores, in terms of shooting, Andy can only say that he is okay, and he is really far behind Erica.
After successfully getting the first blood, Andy and Erica aimed at the next target. At this time, a woman's sharp scream rang out, and the infected group suddenly accelerated and rushed over as if they heard the charge horn and the starting gun.
The moment she heard the scream, Phoebe stepped on the brakes and switched the pickup truck's gear from R to D. It had only been less than 2 seconds since Andy called to stop.
Although Phoebe had released the foot brake and stepped on the accelerator at this time, it took time for the pickup truck to accelerate from a standstill.
At an extremely close distance, people started moving faster than most cars. Stimulated by the screams, the infected rushed toward the car at extremely fast speeds. Erica and Andy faced the mad rush.
The infected person quickly emptied the bullets in his pistol.
"Don't panic, they can't catch us." Fran, who was lying on the shelf still motionless, came to this conclusion based on his intuition.
Erica threw her revolver to Andy, pulled out her M7 and fired rapidly at the infected. The infected were only a few meters away from the pickup truck, as if they only needed to stretch their arms to grab the edge of the truck.
"Pah, pah, pah..."
The magazine of the M7 has not yet been empty, and the distance between the infected and the pickup truck has become wider and wider. Just like Fran said, they really failed to touch the pickup truck.
"I told you, don't panic." Fran said without turning his head while lying on the shelf holding a shotgun.
Andy lowered his head to push out the magazine of the revolver, then raised his hand to pour out the cartridge case. He was loading the bullet with his head lowered to cover up his guilt and embarrassment.
Erica ejected the magazine of the empty M7 pistol, and she said to Fran calmly: "I didn't panic. I just saw that the distance was just right, so I took the time to shoot quickly."
"Oh." Fran heard Erica's voice and knew that she was not lying. Because it was harder to conceal emotions with her voice than her expression.
Andy's head lowered, it turned out that I was the only weakling.
"boom!"
Without warning, Fran's shotgun fired. After a few seconds, he got up and said to Erica and Andy: "Kill them. We can move to the next place."
Um?
Erica and Andy were stunned for a moment before they realized what had happened. Fran seized the opportunity and shot the Screamer to death.
"Phoebe, keep your distance." Andy shouted to the front with a hint of excitement.
I didn't expect to achieve my goal so smoothly.
For Fran, the screamers have a very eye-catching feature. After the screams end, they will stand still for several seconds, maybe due to lack of oxygen in the brain or something. This is what Egg told Fran.
The knowledge points that Lan has heard.
This feature makes the Screamer stand out among the crowd of running infected people.
If you can seize the opportunity at this time and have some luck, you can kill them.
After the first team escaped from the battle, they did not make any further stops. They quickly returned to Jixi Town, leaving behind a group of infected people who looked confused after losing their target.
No one expected that the first team would return so soon and bring back the news of victory. On the street, everyone who heard the good news cheered.
Afterwards, the first team went to support the third team, because according to Fran's investigation results, the third team's infected group was closer to the town.
At almost the same time, more than ten kilometers outside of Jixi Town, the second team also found their target, but they also discovered something interesting.
There was an off-road vehicle in the distance that rolled over under the roadbed. Everyone recognized the appearance and color of the vehicle and recognized it as one of the three vehicles found stolen in their base camp this morning.
Those car thieves actually overturned their car on the way to escape.
