This time there was no need to be careful and careful, Bill's team went straight into the center of the town.
Different from the information given by Egg, there are not many infected people on the streets of Todo Town today.
All the M16s of the Holy Light Salvation Church were given as gifts to the gospel team. Although a batch of firearms were returned to the new reclamation group, there were not a single useful M16, and they were all turned into civilian versions of AR15s.
America is a car kingdom, and there are very few people who can't drive.
America is a gun empire, and people who don’t know how to use an AR15 are even rarer than people who don’t know how to drive.
There is an age limit for learning to drive, but there is no age limit for learning to use a gun.
The members of Bill's team were carefully selected by him. Their average value exceeded the level of armed civilians. Three AR15s opened fire at the same time and quickly brought down several infected people wandering on the street.
Bill put down the gun and scratched his head.
There are too few infected people.
Egg told Bill that unlike the Screamer, which has a one-way connection, the Heart of Blood Plague seems to be able to receive instant feedback from every infected person. As long as it keeps killing infected people, the Heart of Blood Plague will move towards that person.
Send more infected people in the direction.
Just when Iger was about to explain this principle in a long speech, Dr. Heidemi mumbled: "Isn't this the same as the body sending out white blood cells?"
People around me understood immediately.
So if the immune system needs to send more white blood cells over, then the invasion here must be very powerful.
Just when Bill was worried about too few infected people, a large number of infected people suddenly poured out of the street buildings in Todo Town.
This sudden change startled everyone in the pickup truck. Fortunately, the pickup truck was very fast, and the pickup truck rushed over before the infected people could reach the street.
Bill now knew how the scavengers and elite teams of the Evans Brotherhood disappeared. If it weren't for the car, they would have been surrounded.
"Kate, slow down." Bill shouted to Kate, and then the three guns in the pickup truck started firing at the infected people pouring around.
Team Egg, who was hiding far outside the town, heard such intensive gunshots coming from Todo Town, and they all cheered for Team Bill in their hearts.
The more intense the Bill team fights, the easier it will be when the Egg team enters.
After the gunshots rang out for several minutes, they stopped without warning. Egger and the others held their breath nervously.
More than ten seconds later, a huge explosion sounded, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The newly developed fertilizer explosives are very easy to use. They no longer rely on fuel, but use other chemicals to ignite fertilizers, so the stability of the explosives has been improved a lot.
I saw Bill picking up an explosive, first turning on a toy switch tied to it, enduring the annoying noise, lighting the fuse, and then throwing it towards the group of infected people.
When a group of infected people pressed on the explosive like stacks of arhats, it exploded with a bang.
Although this kind of thrown explosive is not as powerful as another barrel-shaped explosive, it can kill twenty or thirty people at a time without any problem.
After throwing two explosives, there were only a few infected people left in the group. Bill was satisfied and picked up an empty magazine and slowly loaded it. At this time, he heard the field team member yell: "What is that?"
Damn it! It’s catching up!!”
When Bill looked up, he saw something like a dog chasing the pickup truck on the street in the distance.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang... click"
That thing ran so fast that the field team's several shots missed it. Kate didn't know what was happening behind her. The pickup truck was slowly moving at a speed of less than 20 kilometers.
The monster quickly caught up with the pickup truck. The moment it jumped high into the truck, Bill dropped the magazine in his hand and pulled out his revolver.
"boom."
There was a gunshot, and Bill emptied 6 bullets.
The monster was knocked backwards by the huge kinetic energy of the .375 bullet, and then fell to the ground motionless.
This guy obviously doesn't have bulletproof features.
"Captain, what kind of monster is this?!" the field team member asked Bill with a frightened expression on his face.
Bill poured out the empty shells from the revolver and shook his head. This was the first time he had seen this ghost thing. The moment the monster jumped high, Bill saw clearly that it was not a dog, but a humanoid.
.
"This is a new mutation." After changing the bullets in the revolver, Bill said to the field staff next to him: "From now on, at least keep one gun fully loaded."
"Understood." The man wiped the sweat from his forehead.
After the pickup truck circled the streets of the town, except for the dead bodies and infected people who fell and struggled on the ground, there were no infected people who could stand anymore.
Bill was deeply shocked again.
This is really the first time in his life that he has fought such a rich battle.
The supplies of the Evans Brotherhood have never been sufficient, and soldiers usually only have one magazine of bullets. Soldiers are even punished for frequently asking for more bullets.
So some soldiers would lie about the number of shots fired and secretly drop some life-saving bullets. Over time, bullets even became hard currency in the camp. For example, if you find a female soldier to solve your needs, you can pay for 10 bullets.
Not limited to female soldiers, some female civilians also actively exchange their bodies for bullets. When encountering danger, civilians can exchange bullets for soldiers to protect themselves.
The so-called enhanced protection is the difference between watching you die and helping you fire two shots.
It can also be said that the Evans Brotherhood organized hundreds of people to attack the Blood Plague Heart. If their ammunition supply had been more abundant, they might have killed the Blood Plague Heart.
But this time, Bill fought a rich battle.
A box of bullets can be used at will, and the explosives filled in the truck can be thrown at will. Egg even half-jokingly said that the ammunition and supplies in the pickup truck will not be used up, even if the mission is not completed.
Bill changed his assessment of the gospel team. The combat effectiveness of a team really does not depend on the number of soldiers. The firepower index in the actual battle is the most important.
The pickup truck continued to go around the same road, and when it reached the place where Bill killed the monster, Bill asked Kate to stop the car.
"Be alert, call me if anything happens. Shoot in case of emergency." Bill said to the field team, and then got out of the pickup truck.
"Bill, what are you doing?" Kate stretched out her body from the pickup truck and asked Bill.
"I just got out of the car and took a look. Don't turn off the engine." Bill said to Kate without looking back.
Bill walked over to the monster, put on a pair of white latex gloves and turned the prone monster over.
This is a human, or rather, this is an infected person who was once a human. In addition to the thin face, it can be seen that he is a middle-aged man, and the sparse bald hair also proves this.
But his running posture just now was not like a human being at all, but more like a four-legged animal. However, because the human body is short at the top and long at the bottom, the infected person did not move as fast when running on all fours.
It's not at a uniform speed, it's obviously jumping up and down like a frog.
Because the infected man's movements were very strange and his speed was very fast, the field team member missed several shots in a row.
Bill reached out and untied the clothes and pants of the infected body. He was not interested in the body of the infected person, but in the clothes of the corpse.
The blood epidemic broke out in late summer and early autumn last year, and the weather was still very hot, so most of the infected people wore very cool clothes. T-shirts and shorts were standard for men, and women wore a variety of clothes, but absolutely no one would wear underwear or underwear.
layer of clothes and a pair of thick pants.
After more than half a year of activities, most of the infected people who were wearing cool clothes were no longer wearing clothes, and they had returned to their natural human body. However, after Bill untied the clothes on the infected person, his clothes were not even buttoned.
Not a few are missing.
Looking at the ferocious expression of the infected person and the rotten teeth in his mouth, Bill suddenly thought of the rumor that some wild dogs would become neither human nor ghosts after eating too much infected carrion.
Bill accidentally listened to a garbage guy saying that a friend of his was exiled and became a wild dog. Once he saw his friend in the wild. He was about to say hello, but he saw his friend talking to several infected people.
Eat the corpse together.
The garbage man thought his friend had become infected, but his friend who was eating suddenly raised his head and saw him. Infected people would not have such good eyesight. The garbage man was so frightened that he crawled away and ran away.
After Garbage Man told this story, he disappeared while scavenging within a few days. Later, his remains were found, and everyone identified Garbage Man from the iconic gold teeth remaining on the skull.
If what this trash guy said is true, then the evidence has been placed in front of Bill.
This is a wild dog that has eaten too much carrion from infected people. Judging from his clothes, he finally became sane a month ago, otherwise he would not still be wearing such thick clothes.
Bill couldn't say whether the wild dog, which was slowly eroded by the infection, retained the human mind, but it could also be seen that the wild dog did not seem to move with other infected people, and he was alone.
After gathering enough information, Bill stood up and Kate leaned out and shouted to Bill: "Hey Bill, what did you find?"
"It's nothing." Bill said casually to Kate: "It's a disgusting thing."
