Chapter 212 Crisis on the Highway (Part 3)
Crisis on Highway 211
After clearing out the surrounding zombies and quickly digging out the crystal core, no one stopped, Fang Yuxin did not let Lan Ruo eat anymore, and after Qu Qianhe set a fire, everyone quickly set off, fearing that if they continued to delay, more zombies would come.
Before getting on the highway, they went to see a gas station near the highway. There was a huge oil barrel buried underground at the gas station, which was full of oil. Unfortunately, they had no container. Even if they could think of a way to pump out the oil, they had no container to put it in.
There was a small supermarket next to the gas station, but it had already been visited by someone and all the things that could be taken away had been taken away, leaving only rotting corpses and a strong stench.
Qu Qianhe sighed, set fire to the body, and then everyone got on the highway.
The toll booth at the highway intersection had long been in tatters, with the transparent glass windows smashed and large patches of dark blood on them. Inside lay a corpse that had been eaten to the point of bones. The person had probably hid in the booth in panic, mistakenly thinking that he could save his life there, but he still lost his life, and not even a complete body was left.
Fang Yuxin and others had already seen all kinds of miserable corpses and had become numb to them. They did not feel anything after seeing them. Qu Qianhe just flicked out the flame and burned the corpse.
Once on the highway, the situation was a little different. From time to time, you would see abandoned cars on the road, some that had obviously been in a car accident, some that had been torn to pieces by zombies, or some that were still in good condition but had been parked on the road for unknown reasons.
The disaster happened in the middle of the night, and there were not many cars on the road, but there were some. However, everyone guessed that most of the cars here were driven by people who fled later.
It was just that on the first day of the apocalypse, the most people fled. At that time, communication was cut off, and no one knew what was happening outside. So they luckily thought that only the commercial city was hit by the disaster. So those who lived in other places or had relatives in other places fled in a hurry, and they basically took the highway.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that not only the business city encountered this devastating disaster, but the whole world was not spared. Even if they fled to other places, they would still be in danger.
And once there is a problem on the highway, they will be trapped on the road, which is even more dangerous.
Looking at those messy or twisted cars, everyone can imagine the tragic scene at that time, and their mood can't help but become heavy.
From time to time, corpses that had been eaten to the bone could be seen in the car or on the road. Qu Qianhe had no choice but to keep firing flames to burn the corpses. The corpses on the road were easy to deal with, but if the corpses in the car were not handled properly, the flames would burn the fuel tank and cause an explosion.
The highway was not very wide, only enough for two cars to drive side by side, so the cars that were piled up on the road became a big problem. They had to stop and move the cars out of the way before they could pass.
Every time this happens, nearby zombies will be attracted and try to launch a sneak attack.
Xu Wu, Wang Qi and Huang Yue all awakened to enhanced powers, and Xu Wu was the strongest among them. He was a special forces soldier, and later became a mercenary. He has always followed Bai Ye, and his strength is not comparable to that of Wang Qi and Huang Yue, who are ordinary citizens. However, Wang Qi and Huang Yue have gained a lot of benefits by following Fang Yuxin. Although their strength cannot be compared with Xu Wu, they are still the best among other power-enhancing psychics.
The task of moving the car was completed by the three of them. Fang Yuyang had wind-related abilities, and Fang Yuxin and Bai Qianqian's spiritual awareness could be released very far. The two of them were responsible for vigilance. Once a zombie approached, Fang Yuyang would take action and directly kill the zombie with a wind blade.
The others will stay on standby, and if there are too many zombies, they will take action together.
Although Bai Ye's team and Yong Sheng's team are still clearly separated at present, they cooperate very well and will never let the zombies take advantage of them.
After walking for a while, they came to the scene of a serial car accident. Probably no one passed by here after the accident, so the scene of the accident was completely preserved.
This was an extremely tragic car accident, with dozens of cars colliding in a chain reaction. The result was not only the damage to the roadside guardrails, but also the serious blockage of the entire road.
Many cars were deformed by the collision, and judging from the traces, an explosion had occurred here. Seven of the cars were directly burned into charred frames, and the people inside were completely turned into charcoal.
In addition, many cars were severely deformed. The blood seeping out of the cars had turned into a dark color, and the people inside had turned into rotten corpses.
The remaining cars were not so seriously damaged and their doors had been opened. Except for a few drivers who were unlucky enough to die in the car, the others managed to escape.
I just don't know what happened to those people later.
The road here was severely blocked, and it was impossible to drive through, so the only option was to move the car out of the way. So as soon as the car stopped, Xu Wu, Wang Qi, and Huang Yue quickly got out of the car and went to move the car.
Fang Yuxin and Bai Qianqian released their spiritual awareness far away to monitor the surrounding situation.
"Not good!" Bai Qianqian suddenly opened his eyes and exclaimed, "There is a zombie swarm of tens of thousands heading towards us!"
Fang Yuyang also noticed it, and she immediately shouted loudly: "Everyone, pay attention! There is a zombie swarm of tens of thousands coming towards us, 700 meters away! It is predicted that they will arrive here in three minutes!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the others immediately took action. Everyone got out of the car and took out their weapons.
This is a highway, and it is not appropriate to use explosives. Once the road surface is destroyed, the situation will become more troublesome, so they can only use ordinary weapons.
Since Bai Ye inherited the Dragon Scale Sword, he specially prepared a sword for himself as a substitute for the Dragon Scale Sword to practice sword skills. His weapon is naturally the golden sword in his hand.
Meng Qingluo is different. Her marksmanship is already very good. After awakening, her body was strengthened, and she became a sharpshooter who never missed a shot. However, her awakened ability is a special poison system, which can release poisonous smoke or fog. However, zombies are dead things, and they carry zombie viruses, which are immune to ordinary poisons. Meng Qingluo's ability is not very effective against zombies, but it is very scary when dealing with humans or other creatures.
Fang Jintang thought for a moment and said, "We can't build a swamp trap here. Let's go to another place."
The others immediately agreed to his proposal after hearing this. They had all seen the power of Fang Jintang's swamp traps, and the zombies were still some distance away from them, which was just the right time to set them up.
So everyone simply got off the highway and chose a larger open space nearby, and Fang Jintang set the trap.
Fang Jintang immediately began to make hand gestures, and soon, spiritual light shot out from his hands and hit the selected ground. As the spiritual light spread, the entire ground began to change, and in less than a minute, it turned into a swamp of ten meters square.
Then, Fang Jintang sent in another spiritual light, and the surface of the swamp changed again, becoming the appearance of ordinary ground. At first glance, there was nothing unusual. If you didn't know, you would never have thought that there was only a thin layer of ground, and the whole ground was swamp.
Immediately afterwards, Meng Qingluo, Chen Qiao and others began to set up machine guns. Once the zombies fell into the swamp, they could just shoot them again.
During this time, Bai Qianqian kept reporting the location of the zombie group. As the distance he said became shorter and shorter, everyone couldn't help but get nervous.
However, they all understood that this tension was just an illusion caused by the atmosphere. They were very confident in their own strength, and tens of thousands of zombies would not cause them too much trouble.
As long as nothing else happens, there's nothing else to worry about.
The zombie horde is getting closer.
Three hundred meters, two hundred meters, one hundred meters!
There is no safe area nearby, so naturally there are no living people. These zombies have been wandering around for who knows how long and have been starving. Now they suddenly smell the scent of a living person with strong blood and vitality. How can they not be tempted?
As the distance got closer, the zombies' perception of the psychic's energy and blood became stronger and stronger. They kept speeding up and rushed towards Fang Yuxin and the others frantically.
When the zombies were getting closer, Xu Wu and three others had already arrived behind the trap. They joined Fang Yuxin and the others, stood in a row, holding guns or other weapons, waiting for the zombies to approach.
Fang Yuxin warned in a low voice: "The strongest one inside is a speed zombie close to level three. There are also ten level two zombies and hundreds of level one zombies. Be careful!"
Many people here can't deal with a speed zombie close to level three, so as soon as Fang Yuxin finished speaking, Bai Ye said: "I'll deal with that speed zombie, the rest of you be careful!"
The others subconsciously tightened their weapons. Although they had set a trap, if they encountered speed-mutated zombies, they would be too fast and might not be trapped by the trap. Bai Ye's warning to be careful meant to be careful of the speed zombies inside.
The remaining zombies were not that fast, so they could be trapped if they were well controlled. Once they fell into the swamp, their movements would be greatly restricted.
As soon as Bai Ye finished speaking, the mutant zombie with a speed close to level 3 had already turned into a shadow and rushed over. Its speed was too fast, and although it stepped on the trap, it did not leave any traces, and it was in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.
Fang Yuyang used the wind to slow down its speed at the right time, preventing it from launching a sneak attack. At the same time, Bai Ye took advantage of the wind and dodged to stop it.
