Steven really didn't understand what was going on. He stood there for a while, then turned and ran towards Kate. Soon he came to the aisle. Steven motioned to Kate to take off the earplugs.
Then he said to him: "I don't know what happened to the fat man. He stopped chasing me at all. He just lay on the pile of corpses and ate. I smashed the zombie arm on the ground onto its back. It
He chased me for a few steps and then went back, ignoring me at all, and the dozen or so zombies near the pile of corpses also completely ignored my existence."
Kate said: "I saw it just now. It was stuck in the door hole. It didn't make any move to get in. Instead, it moved back. I also think this is very strange. Did something happen? So that these monsters have lost sight of us.
hostility?"
Steven replied: "Mostly so! I want to think about it. When it started chasing me from the pillar, it stopped next to the corpse of another fat man. Did that corpse stimulate it and make it fearful?
Don’t want to hunt us anymore?”
Then Steven told Kate what had just led the two fat men to fight around the pillar, and then added: "The recovery ability of those fat men's bodies is amazing, I cut off half of their thighs, but after a few minutes
After that, I basically recovered, which is amazing!”
Kate nodded after listening: "This is also very common sense. Their appetite is so good, coupled with the adhesive marks on their bodies, it shows that these monsters are probably unnaturally produced, and their resilience should be very strong. You
If I didn't chop off its head, it would be difficult to kill it."
Steven continued: "But I still have a question, Kate! The ordinary zombies next to the pile of corpses don't pay attention to me anymore. They no longer rush towards us like they did before when they found us. I stand just ten meters away from them.
From a distance, they completely ignored my presence."
Kate raised her eyebrows and said: "This is a bit strange... Is it because you are carrying that straight knife? This straight knife was obtained from the ruins and may have something to do with those zombies?" Steve
Wen replied: "It's very simple. I'll put the straight knife here for you, then go over and try it and you'll know."
Kate nodded, and Steven took the fixed knife from his back and handed it to Kate, then walked into the hall holding a torch and holding Kate's machete.
He quickly came to the group of zombies next to the pile of corpses, and stood in front of them two meters away. The group of zombies still did not react at all. Those who should sway and stroll did not stop at all, as if there were no other zombies next to them.
The things were the same. Steven took a few steps forward and came to a zombie. The zombie stood there swaying, as if it couldn't see Steven. Steven even stretched out his hand and shook it in front of its eyes.
Palm, this zombie looked like there was only air in front of him, completely ignoring Steven's palm.
Steven turned back and walked towards the doorway, and glanced sideways at the fat man. He was still lying on the pile of corpses chewing. Soon Steven came to the corridor, told Kate about the experiment just now, and then said:
"This probably has nothing to do with the straight knife. There is an unknown reason at work, or the two of us can go over and try it together, but just to be on the safe side, you still have to wear earplugs."
Kate nodded, then took out the earplugs and put them on, followed Steven into the hall, and soon they came to the pile of corpses, with Steven in front and Kate in the back, and came to the bottom of the fat man in front of the pile of corpses.
Steven coughed a few times, but the fat man didn't respond and continued to eat. Then they came to the group of zombies again. They were still the same as before, completely ignoring the two of them. Kate stretched out the machete in front of a zombie.
, it continued to shake, ignoring the machete in front of it. The two tried it around a few zombies, with the same result. Then Steven made a few gestures to Kate, and then they retreated into the aisle together.
Kate took off her earplugs and said: "It seems that there is a reason we don't know that makes these monsters ignore us. The fat man may have seen the corpses of his kind on the ground, which made him fear us, but why are those zombies afraid of us?"
In this case, it’s hard to say, maybe the fat man is the same as a zombie, maybe for the same reason.”
Steven nodded and said: "So what are your plans now? Kate, do we keep these monsters in the hall or get rid of them all?" Kate thought for a while and replied: "I think we should keep them together.
It's better in the lobby on the first floor. It's still a bit difficult to clear them all, especially the fat man. As long as they don't take the initiative to attack us, we don't have to kill them all. We can still clean up the corpses of the zombies by keeping the fat man.
It’s a good thing, and it also saves time, which we can spend on exploring.”
Steven nodded in agreement: "That's fine. Killing is a last resort, even for these monsters. As for other throwing zombies and crawling zombies, if they want to take the initiative to attack us, they can only blame themselves." Kate.
Said: "Now that we are not harassed by fat people and zombies, we should be able to save a lot of time. Let's finish exploring this hall today and then go back."
Steven had no objection, so the two entered the hall and continued to search the north wall. They speeded up and followed the wall past the pile of corpses, the fat man lying on the pile of corpses and the group of zombies, and continued to search the remaining
area, the two of them soon explored the wall on the north side, and found nothing except regular doorways, so they decided to explore towards the middle of the hall.
They walked from the corner of the north side to the east side to the opposite side of the hall, and soon came to the first pillar. This granite pillar was so huge that it gave people a sense of grandeur. Each square pillar
It is about 6 meters long on both sides. When you get closer, it looks like a wall. The stone pillars extend towards the sky and into the darkness above. Steven's night vision range is much farther than the range illuminated by torches, but
He looked up and still couldn't see the ceiling above.
They explored along the first giant pillar in the direction of the second giant pillar. After reaching the last giant pillar in the row, they turned and headed towards the first giant pillar in the second row. They successively removed each giant pillar in the hall and the surrounding ones.
The entire area was searched, but nothing else was found. Apart from the giant pillars in the middle of the hall, there was uneven thickness of dust on the ground.
Walking through the last giant pillar also meant that the exploration of the hall was completed. Later, they also discovered a group of dozens of zombies near the south corner of the hall. This was the pile of corpses where Fatty was first discovered.
The zombies left near the pile of corpses should be the same group of zombies that the fat man who was burned to death blocked in the hall last time. Now they have no reaction to the two of them, completely ignoring their arms and the tips of the knives that are stretched out in front of them.
