Chapter 75 Kill, kill, kill! The sound of silence is extraordinary!
A fishy smell hit my nose, and even though it was diluted by the rain, it was still mixed with the strong smell of rotten meat.
Boom.
Boom!
The tentacles slammed hard against the surface of the building, making a sound like beating a drum, causing dust to fall from the wall.
As an inspector.
From the first day of taking the course, Cheng Ye had a strong desire to explore the fusion body.
Because this kind of creature has completely transcended the limitations of carbon-based organisms and is like an alien creation.
But he never thought that his first encounter with the fusion body would be a fight of life and death.
"Hide well! Don't expose your back!"
Cheng Ye clenched his Thunderbolt 1 and shouted in a deep voice. The four of them held their breath in the stairwell.
If it was a fusion of rotten vines, he would definitely run away now.
But in the images sent back by the drone, there were hundreds of similar tentacle monsters climbing on the high walls. The surge in numbers would inevitably lead to the dilution of individual combat power.
This is the iron law of infection sources, and even the substitute starfish cannot avoid it.
“Here I come!”
Before he could finish his words, a distorted human figure suddenly appeared at the door of the tube building.
Cheng Ye pulled the trigger without thinking, pressing his fingertips firmly to the bottom.
boom.
Boom boom boom.
PL 1 got its name because the sound of shooting was like thunder.
Deer bullets spurted out from the muzzle like flowers scattered by the sky.
The 32-round capacity can form a fan-shaped fire network even if a single person shoots. By pulling the trigger continuously, a rain of lead bullets covers the entire entrance!
The human figure that just stuck its head out was torn to pieces by the violent firepower almost in the blink of an eye.
but.
"Not a fusion?"
Cheng Ye was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted and subconsciously dodged his iron body equipment to the side.
Sure enough, there was a sudden loud bang behind the four of them, and a thick tentacle actually smashed through the outer wall and landed right where he was standing!
"Fuck!"
Cheng Ye's pupils suddenly contracted.
The exterior walls of the electronics factory's tube-shaped building were not made of the later concrete blocks + cement mortar, which are hollow blocks, but the old-fashioned standard red bricks.
As a longitudinal load-bearing wall, its thickness is at least 240mm. Can it be smashed through?
"run!"
Without his reminder, Huang Sheng and the other two had already scrambled upstairs.
Cheng Ye hesitated for a moment, then rolled on the spot to avoid the tentacles and rushed directly from the stairs to the yard.
This is the biggest difference between ordinary people and warriors.
Ordinary people will instinctively flee to their "psychological safety zone" when encountering danger. For Huang Sheng and his two companions, their home on the fifth floor is a safe haven in desperate situations.
As for the warrior's retreat, according to Brother B, he must follow an iron rule:
It can create conditions for subsequent battles!
Since entering the building will only trap you in a narrow space and make you unable to withstand the attack of the fusion body, it is better to think in reverse and actively pull the opponent to free yourself from the passive situation.
As long as he is given enough shooting space, this Thunderbolt 1 may be able to tear apart the fusion's defense!
After going down the stairs, Cheng Ye looked behind him and saw that the tentacles of the fusion body were already pulling out. It did not choose to continue whipping the outer wall and breaking the outer wall of the tube building.
Obviously, this kind of attack is not an ordinary attack, and it seems that it requires accumulation of energy before it can be unleashed.
Good news!
"Come and chase me, you son of a bitch!"
He roared, put the remaining dozen bullets of the Thunderbolt 1 back into his back, held the Buffalo combat pistol and the defensive pistol in his hands respectively, and fired at the same time.
After the delay just now, the infected bodies from several other buildings have already chased to the entrance of the corridor.
The target that was easy to deal with before suddenly became difficult to deal with with the fusion body chasing after him.
But Cheng Ye did not panic. The iron body's control over his body was at its strongest state, which allowed his shooting level to barely catch up with sharpshooters like Liu Bi at close range.
With the bonus of moving shooting, the accuracy will not be affected even if you roll or jump.
When the fusion body climbed over the tube building and appeared in front, he suddenly stopped and grinned:
"Silly dog, do you know what flying a kite is?"
Not caring whether the fusion body could understand what he said or not, he cursed wantonly and strode back to the stairwell.
This trick really works!
The fusion body no longer took a detour. It used its tentacles to sweep away the ordinary infected bodies blocking its way and chased straight after them.
"Is this haunting me?"
Cheng Ye's heart tightened. There were so many meats at the door, but the fusion body ignored them and kept chasing him.
Am I more attractive than those people?
"Come on, little greedy cat, then I'll let you taste me."
The stench of decay was enough to almost make people faint. Cheng Ye suddenly held his breath and poured out all the remaining bullets in the Pili 1.
Boom, boom boom!
There has never been a moment when the feeling of pulling the trigger is so satisfying.
The bullets created visible holes in the fusion body, and some of them passed through the body and caused penetrating wounds. The fusion body let out a sharp scream in pain.
It has the flavor of the original, but that’s all!
Cheng Ye just felt a little dizzy, and quickly switched to the Ranger rifle to continue firing.
However, to his great surprise, this monster
Run away?
Grabbing the two ordinary infected bodies at the door, the fusion body disappeared in the rain at an exaggerated speed.
Cheng Ye was stunned for a moment, and after determining that this was not the fusion body tempting him to chase, he gritted his teeth and chased after it.
At this time, every household in the tube-shaped building was pitch black.
In the dim light of the street lamp, he suddenly saw a horrifying scene:
The fusion body was actually devouring the infected body!
The giant starfish tissue on its head suddenly expanded and swallowed the entire human body whole.
In an instant, the deep holes created by Thunderbolt 1 were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"this?"
Cheng Ye subconsciously reached out and grasped the high-explosive bomb hanging on his waist. The hot sweat from his palms was locked in the rubber gloves, like raindrops dripping in.
The performance of the fusion completely overturned his cognition and completely tore apart the pale description in the data manual.
This is a monster!
A monster that is completely beyond human comprehension!
No wonder humans need to build shelter cities in the wasteland. If you encounter something like this in the wild, you will definitely...
There is no chance of survival!
And just now, unless there are four or five people.
It is not enough. Unless there is a team of eight people who can shoot with him using Thunderbolt 1 and form a fire blockade, it is possible to cause seven fatal wounds and death.
Otherwise, he would escape like he is doing now and devour other infected bodies to recover.
But the question is, how many people in the entire buffer zone can afford Thunderbolt 1?
Bang.
Bang bang bang bang bang.
At the moment when Cheng Ye was stunned holding the high-explosive thunder, several gunshots suddenly rang out on the fifth floor.
Is it Huang Sheng and the others?
No!
Before he could react, a few gunshots sounded like a fuse. In just a moment, the sound of pistol shooting in the whole building suddenly became one!
what happened?
He looked up blankly and saw:
Hundreds of tongues of flame from gun barrels were spitting out wildly in the rain. The piercing sound of gunfire seemed to have ignited dozens of firecrackers at the same time, making the air buzz.
But what was even more shocking was that, apart from the building behind him, every household in the other two tube-shaped buildings facing the fusion body also suddenly opened their windows.
The black muzzle of a gun peeked out from behind the curtains and through the gaps in the burglar-proof net, and the blazing flames intertwined into an impenetrable fire net in the rainy night!
Bullets swarmed towards the twisted fusion body like locusts, sending debris flying from the wall and sparks flying from the fusion body.
What is fire blockade!
Cheng Ye had never seen this before, but at this moment, he understood:
This is what we call a fire blockade!
Fire blockade from ordinary people, from the electronics factory community, from every survivor!
ah! ! !
A scream that was much sharper than before was heard. Cheng Ye couldn't help but hold his head and kneel on one knee.
But, but, but the next second, an even more shocking sound wave swept over, and an extremely uniform shout broke out in the tube building:
"kill!"
"kill!!"
"kill!!!"
It was a roar mixed with fear, anger and determination.
It came from an elderly man whose murderous intent remained undiminished, a middle-aged man whose blood was boiling in his chest, a woman who was hiding behind a window and shouting at the top of her lungs, and a half-grown child who was roaring and shaking his fist.
Those are countless ordinary people in the wasteland who don't have the courage to stand up and face the infected body when the infection wave comes, but they are willing to burst out their courage at the critical moment!
The shouts from ordinary people actually drowned out the screams of the fusion body, crushing the inhuman roar and punching through the extraordinary oppression.
this? !
Under Cheng Ye's stunned gaze, the fusion body that was capable of easily taking dozens of lives escaped again.
The posture was so awkward that it was almost funny.
Almost half of its body was torn into pieces by bullets, and dark green body fluids mixed with rain left long trails. If it hadn't just captured two infected bodies, this wave of firepower composed of countless guns would probably really nail this monster to the building!
"It's a shame. The emergency drills for dealing with monsters only go so far. Everyone used them well, but they only linked up to defend, not actively pursue."
The windows of every household had been closed, so fast that it seemed like an illusion. Huang Sheng and the other two rushed out from the corridor, looked at the direction where the fusion body escaped, shook their heads and sighed.
To deal with this kind of monster, the only way is to find that clever connection point so that everyone can open fire at the same time without any command, forming a blockade and killing the monster.
Later, when the fusion body escaped, the higher-ups never thought of letting ordinary residents chase it, as it was almost impossible to do so.
but.
"It's not a pity. I will find him and kill him. I will!"
Cheng Ye stood up slightly, and an elusive look of shock flashed in his eyes.
Mr. Qu’s words were echoing in his mind again and again.
It turns out that it’s not just Tianyuan Mall, but the entire region needs a leader?
perhaps.
The wastelanders here do not lack combat power, what they lack is people who can gather the scattered sand into a fortress!
What is missing is that small spark that can ignite a prairie fire in the endless wilderness!
"Continue cleaning each building. After that, go to Tianyuan Mall."
"Tianyuan Mall?"
Huang Sheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded without questioning Cheng Ye's choice.
After experiencing a life-and-death battle with the fusion body, those ordinary infected bodies in the outbreak period are no longer a threat.
Cheng Ye took off his iron body and strolled leisurely in the garden. Every time he stabbed accurately with the triangular spear in his hand, the infected body fell to the ground with a wail.
At the same time, prompts flashed before his eyes.
[Dissipating biological consciousness detected, automatically absorbed]
[This successful supplementary information degree: 0.1, 0.04, 0.07, 0.05, 0.21, 0.16]
Each time a consciousness collapses, it will last for ten minutes.
After this time, the source of infection will no longer provide information bonus, presumably it has completely dissipated.
After all the infected bodies in the entire electronics factory area were cleared out, Cheng Ye opened the panel.
【Collector: Cheng Ye】
[Current Rank: Level 1 Apprentice (16.7/100)]
Almost, it increased by 10 points!
The time was only 00:17, and only 36 minutes had passed since the outbreak of the infection source.
The rain has subsided slightly.
This heavy rain is unlikely to last until dawn. At this rate, it will gradually stop in one or two hours at most.
The home turf that belongs to humans is returning, but the prerequisite is to kill the fusion.
"I don't know what happened to the high wall. There are hundreds of fusion bodies there."
Cheng Ye wiped the triangular spear on the infected body and looked towards the high wall through the rain.
The sounds of gunfire and artillery fire showed no sign of stopping, but unfortunately all the drones in the surrounding area had been destroyed, so not much could be seen.
You can only switch to the A-7 area where there is drone control.
The picture flickers, which is frightening.
On the not-so-wide street, the infected starfish bodies surged forward like a black tide.
If I have to find a suitable description, it would probably be similar to the end of those concerts with tens of thousands of people that he attended before he traveled through time.
However, what was surging in the picture at this moment was not human heads, but densely packed, wriggling starfish-shaped deformed bodies.
Stacked and pushed forward, their tentacles dragged dark green slime trails on the ground, weaving the entire street into a twisted and swaying biological carpet.
The Blood Dragon Legion formed a fire defense line, and heavy machine guns were spewing wildly at the end of the street.
However, the effect was minimal, because every time the fusion body passed by the flank, it would instantly attract the attention of the entire line of fire.
After just a few delays, the tide of infection advanced more than ten meters, and the pressure on the defense line increased exponentially.
unless
boom.
Seeing that the wave could not be stopped, more than ten rockets shot up into the sky from behind the defense line and hit the core of the infection like meteors.
The blast caused by the explosion blew the entire infected starfish body into pieces of flesh, and dark green tissue fragments fell all over the sky.
Under Cheng Ye's gaze, the blood and flesh that splashed on other infected bodies were instantly devoured.
The bodies of several ordinary infected bodies expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and four slippery tentacles suddenly tore out from their backs!
This. Devouring evolution?
He shuddered and immediately realized why this wave of infection could be classified as a disaster rather than a plague.
Plague is a pestilential gas that corrodes the bones and makes the soul unwell. It is the result of human disaster.
Disaster is the fire of sin, everything is reduced to ruins, it is the sorrow of civilization.
Once it reaches disaster level, the wave of infection will not only cause population decline, but will also completely bury the civilization of this land.
And disaster -, leaves a glimmer of hope.
Will it rise to a disaster and completely destroy the buffer zone, or will it fall to a plague and take away part of the human race?
It all depends on the efforts of everyone tonight!
"Drag these infected bodies into an empty room on the first floor. Don't let other infected bodies eat them."
"yes."
Huang Sheng nodded in response, turned around and ran back to the corridor and shouted a few times.
In an instant, doors opened one after another, and the residents on the first floor were more active than Cheng Ye had imagined.
Everyone almost ran out, dragging the infected bodies into the empty room.
"Captain, if we leave, they will come out to clean up the mess. Now that we are protecting them, how can they not be proactive?"
"That's right."
The infected bodies in the community have been eliminated, but there are definitely many infected bodies roaming around in Area B-7.
He just glanced and saw that one-third of the red area had begun to turn black, and the chemical plant area had also turned red.
If we don't take the initiative, this wave of infection will only become more and more terrifying until it becomes transparent and is wiped out by missiles from the defenders stationed on the Happiness Line.
"Walk!"
The heavy rain will wash away all the blood.
As soon as he walked out of the community gate, Cheng Ye saw five infected bodies frantically digging at the iron gate of the big meat canteen.
The middle-aged shop owner hid in the house. When he saw the four people appear through the window, he immediately shouted in panic:
"Brothers, save me. Next time I come to eat big meat, I'll give you seven points. I'll give you 50% off!"
"Go, help him kill those guys."
"Okay."
Not knowing why they suddenly became so brave after following Cheng Ye, Huang Sheng and Wu Zhihong simply took out the short knives at their waists and rushed forward, chopping down the infected bodies in no time.
Zhu Xiang immediately stepped forward to cut the source of infection, and a pleasant prompt sound rang in Cheng Ye's ears.
He doesn't even have to do anything, the information level is increasing!
One of them actually gave 0.3, and the total information level was about to break 20.
"Brother, next time we come, remember to choose the big, fat ones as treats."
"Of course, of course!"
Huang Sheng gave a few warnings through the window. The owner hesitated for a moment, then immediately went out and dragged the infected body inside, intending to hide it in the basement.
This wasteland has never lacked ruthless people. Those fussy people died long ago before the new era.
On the way to Tianyuan Mall, infected bodies kept emerging from the darkness.
Cheng Ye was quick-witted and swift-handed, leaving Huang Sheng and the other two almost no chance to attack, and the audio prompts of increased information level rang out frequently.
But he felt increasingly dissatisfied.
"If we keep killing like this, the efficiency is still too low!"
When Cheng Ye thought that there were three hundred people waiting for him in Tianyuan Mall, his heart felt like it was on fire.
But this time, it was not the fire of unwillingness to gain strength, nor the fire of ambition to climb up.
It is an indescribable collective fire that only the people of the East can understand!
finally.
After walking two blocks, I saw the mall appearing not far away.
The ground was already littered with the corpses of the infected. It was obvious that more than one round of fighting had broken out here before he arrived.
Boom.
The iron rolling shutter door suddenly opened from the inside, and behind the door was a crowd of people, densely packed figures surging like a tide, everyone had a red cloth tied around their forehead, and their eyes were burning with a blazing light that was no less intense than his.
The three district elders stood in the front row, with Dalong and Erlong standing solemnly behind them holding machetes.
Seeing him stop and look over.
A gratified smile appeared on Old Song's face. He took a half step forward and bowed, his voice filled with unconcealed excitement:
"Sir, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
