Chapter 163 Vampire Carnival
The people in the carriage looked at the dark sky outside, and an unknown shadow was cast in their hearts.
Zhoucheng is not a rainy city, especially in the dry November. This is the first time it has rained since the outbreak of "vampire" infected people in Zhoucheng.
Therefore, many people did not associate rain with infected people at the first time. They were just scared by the sound of thunder and the dark color of the sky.
At the same time, everyone felt that the speed of the car had doubled compared to before. Originally, all cars had been kept at a speed of about 40 miles per hour because of the continuity and integrity of the team.
But now, it suddenly rushed to 80 miles per hour.
Some military trucks seemed to have no reaction and continued to drive at the original speed. They were soon overtaken by the military trucks behind them. The originally continuous convoy became intermittent and chaotic.
The walkie-talkies on each vehicle came with messages and instructions to move forward at full speed. The other party was anxious and had no time to explain the reason. They were just giving orders.
Fortunately, the troops were used to following orders. After the order was given, the speed of the entire convoy was immediately increased.
But soon, as the heavy rain fell and blocked the view, the speed was forced to slow down again. What was even more frightening was that there seemed to be a faint roar around.
That was everyone's nightmare. They had spent long nights in such roars.
How could it be! ?
It was just past noon, which was not the time for the "vampires" to move, but now a bloody figure appeared behind the car.
They were awakened by the thunder and tried to come out of the building where they were hiding. Soon they found that the light that frightened them had disappeared. The sky was covered with layers of dark clouds and heavy rain.
They smelled the scent of prey and began to run wildly in pursuit. They were tireless and the cold rain had no effect on them.
At this moment, it seemed that the whole world belonged to them. This was the moment of revelry for the "vampires" and a feast for them to encircle and suppress humans.
"It's the infected! There are infected people - it's raining, there's no sunshine, and the infected are all out!" someone shouted.
"What!? Infected?"
"Oh my God! It's really 'blood vampires'! Oh my god, there are so many! They are running towards us! Drive faster! Faster--"
...
Soon, the survivors in the car found that there were not only infected people at the rear of the car, but also terrible bloody figures on their left and right. They ran very fast, across the fields, through the woods, roaring excitedly, and chasing them.
The infected on the left were obviously closer to them, and they ran to the vicinity in a moment.
"Prepare for battle! Don't panic!" Several captains spoke loudly to stabilize the emotions of the team members.
Noon should have been the safest time, but suddenly encountered an attack by "blood vampires" in the empty fields, and anyone would panic all of a sudden.
They were also afraid and panicked, but they themselves could not panic, otherwise their team members would only become more panicked and chaotic, and then who would protect the unarmed civilians!
"Leave one person in each car to coordinate in the carriage, and the rest of the team members go on the roof and shoot!"
"Don't panic! Aim and then shoot! The head and heart are fatal points!"
"Be careful! It's raining heavily! Don't slide off the car!"
"Don't slow down! Drive as hard as you can!"
"Captain! The car in front is slowing down!"
"No! There are also infected people in front!"
"Hit them--"
"Where's the gunner! Support quickly--"
...
The entire convoy was instantly forced to join the battlefield. There were also several troops in Youxi's car. When they heard the order, some people leaned out of the carriage to shoot, but because the heavy rain blocked their vision and the car body was bumpy, the shooting effect was not good.
Soon, two team members nimbly climbed onto the roof of the car, stuck their feet in the ropes that fixed the canopy, and began to shoot at the infected people who had already rushed to the vicinity.
The faces of everyone in the car turned pale and terrified. Wu You held his head and sobbed. Min Min held her mother and brother's hands tightly and bit her lower lip tightly. Xiaomin and the others threw themselves into the arms of their family, shaking with fear.
No one thought that they would encounter "blood vampires" in broad daylight. They thought that after this transfer, everyone would be able to go to a safer place and live a stable life with their families in the future.
But they didn't expect that they would be chased and surrounded by "blood vampires" in an empty area during the transfer, and they didn't even have a handy weapon with them!
The roars and screams outside were like the death god, approaching them step by step, trying to drag them all into the bloody hell.
"I can't stand it anymore! This damn disease! Damn infected people! We are doomed to die from the tragic fate since L City!" Wu You broke down again, and negative emotions burst out. He cried and shouted like a madman.
However, the next moment, a blood-red hand - or a sharp claw with only finger bones left, scratched the hood behind him and grabbed him directly.
"Be careful -" Xiaonan, who was standing by, saw this scene with his sharp eyes, reached out and grabbed Wu You, and Wu You fell into the carriage like a dog eating shit.
After the "blood vampire" missed, he let out a low roar and poked his whole face from under the hood. Seeing the people huddled together in the carriage, he opened his blood-red mouth and revealed an excited smile.
The carriage was in chaos instantly, and everyone dodged to the other side in panic, while shouting for the team members to save them.
But the team member who stayed at the edge of the carriage was also overwhelmed at the moment. He kicked away a "blood vampire" who was clinging to the rear of the car and trying to climb up, and was grabbed by the ankle by another "blood vampire". He held the rope of the hood to barely stabilize his body, and then shot at the "blood vampire" who grabbed his ankle.
He was young, having only been in the army for a year. He had no combat experience at all. He fired several times but failed to kill the "blood ghost". He became more and more panicked and fired randomly. He soon ran out of bullets, but he couldn't free his hands to reload bullets.
Seeing that the tear on the canopy was getting bigger and bigger due to the "blood ghost", the opponent had already stuck half of its body into the car and reached out to grab Min Cong who was closest.
Min Min's face turned pale, hugged her brother, turned around, and protected him with her body.
"Sister - don't!"
Suddenly, with a bang, a hole was opened in the forehead of the "blood ghost". It was in a stalemate for two seconds and slipped out of the gap.
Min Min trembled and turned around. You Xi stopped after one strike, ran to the rear of the car, stepped on the wrist of the infected person who was holding the ankle of the team member, and kicked him out. When the opponent tried to get back on the car, he shot him in the head again.
The young team member looked at her in fear, and You Xi stuffed some bullets into him: "Stay in the car and protect the people behind you."
"You Xi--" She wanted to jump out of the car but was stopped by the man next to her.
He frowned and looked at her, disagreeing: "Don't forget your mission."
"I will do my best."
"Then I'll go with you."
"You stay here, I can't be distracted to take care of the people in the car."
"My responsibility is to keep you alive."
"You are suitable for long-distance travel, and you can still take care of me in the car, but if you get off the car, in such a chaotic battlefield, I still can't take care of you." You Xi patted the other's shoulder, "Don't worry, this kind of weather is good for me."
He was silent for a second, and still let go of his hand: "Be careful."
"Yeah." She smiled at him, turned around, grabbed the hood of the car, and climbed upwards nimbly. While climbing, she took out the [fake lipstick] and quickly applied it on her lips.
When she jumped onto the roof of the car, she had become another person, a tall, hot and gorgeous woman.
You Xi focused her mind slightly, and all the rain that fell on her instantly condensed into ice, becoming a transparent ice armor that stuck to her body. She clenched her right hand and opened her left hand, and an ice Tang sword appeared in her hand.
Without a second's hesitation, she chopped directly with a knife, cutting off the wrist of the infected person who climbed onto the half-roof of the car and tried to pull a team member down, and then shot with her right hand, killing another infected person who was lying on the front of the car and trying to grab the driver.
The team members fighting on the roof of the car were stunned. Who is this person?
"Don't be stunned! Keep shooting!"
She scolded, and everyone else reacted and joined the battle again.
**
The convoy is still moving forward, but at an extremely slow speed. Everyone knows that the number of infected people around is increasing. The louder the fighting here, the stronger the smell of blood, and the more "vampires" are attracted. The more
"vampires" there are, the slower their speed will be.
They know that they can fight better if they stop, but they can't stop. Once a car stops, the "vampires" on the side will immediately swarm over. They break the windows, tear open the hood, pull out the people inside one by one, and laugh at the bloody massacre...
The only two armored vehicles in the convoy are driving in a circle on both sides of the convoy, bombarding the overly dense tide of infected people at the same time.
But the team was too long, the number of civilians was too large, and there were too few members who could be put into battle. The bullets were constantly consumed, and the number of "vampires" was still increasing.
Suddenly, a huge roar was heard, and a giant physical mutant came out from the woods next to it. It accelerated and ran heavily towards the team, knocking away an armored vehicle, and finally crashed into the protected silver-gray armored RV.
It seemed to have gone crazy and began to tear the body of the car without any care, as if it wanted to tear the body in half.
Fortunately, the armored RV was equipped with armor-piercing bullets to deal with this kind of evolved mutant.
The armor-piercing bullet shattered the Evolver's shoulder, and a large piece of flesh and blood fell off. From under the bloody shoulder, human limbs fell out, including hands and feet. The blood and flesh stuck together, making people sick.
Because this RV was the primary protection target of the entire fleet, it was attacked by the Evolved Mutants at this moment, and another armored vehicle that was originally shelling the infected group also drove over. The armored vehicle that was knocked aside turned around again, and the two vehicles bombarded the Evolver who fell to the ground.
The Evolver seemed to be enraged, abandoned the RV, turned around and threw towards the armored vehicle.
Finally, after destroying an armored vehicle, the Evolver was completely killed.
At the same time, all the armor-piercing bullets have been used up, and the convoy is now unable to deal with the second Evolver.
Unfortunately, from far behind, a huge and heavy roar came again, and this roar made people feel more desperate than the sound of ordinary infected people.
"The second Evolver! Retreat!"
"Go! Go!"
"Evacuate quickly--"
Many people shouted at the top of their lungs, but one-third of the cars in the convoy were trapped in the siege of the infected and had no way to break through and leave normally.
Youxi killed an infected person, jumped from the roof of this car to the roof of another car, and quickly came to the center of the siege of the infected by moving in this way.
She glanced at the area where the blood-red figures were densely distributed around her, and began to concentrate. The supernatural power in her body was drained at an unprecedented speed. The rain curtain around her turned into sharp ice spikes and ice blades in the next moment. The strong control made them stagnate in the air in an instant.
The people around were stunned when they saw this magical scene.
A second later, Youxi clenched her fists, and all the stagnant ice spikes and ice blades were like bullets that were shot out, and instantly fell towards the blood-red figure below at a super high speed.
Puff puff puff - the ice spikes and ice blades ruthlessly penetrated the bodies of the infected, cutting them into pieces of flesh and blood.
This was the first time that Youxi used a supernatural power that exceeded her limits. After the ice blades and spikes disappeared, her body slid down from the roof of the car. In the gap where no one could see, she wiped off the lipstick on her lips with shaking hands.
When she landed, she returned to her original appearance. She held onto the body of the car and reluctantly moved her legs towards her military truck.
The heavy rain fell again, blurring the surrounding scene.
Most of the infected people blocking the convoy were cleared in an instant. After being shocked, several captains finally reacted. No matter who this person was or what ability she used, she was here to help them! They couldn't waste such an opportunity!
Everyone immediately called for the convoy to start leaving quickly. Those who were fighting on the ground started running. Some quickly cleaned up the remaining "blood vampires", some helped up their injured comrades and stuffed them into the truck, and some moved the "blood vampire" limbs that blocked the wheels...
Because they saw the hope of life, everyone was busy. Among the crowd running around, You Xi's slender figure looked ordinary and insignificant.
Her body could no longer release any superpowers, and even the protective ice layer could not be condensed. There was blood and limbs everywhere around her. No matter which direction she landed, it seemed that she could not avoid blood contamination. There were still several infected people who had not been cleared on the road leading to the truck.
She was about to take out the [air hair dryer] when suddenly, a layer of light golden halo lit up along her body.
This layer of halo was controlled to be extremely thin, and the color was almost invisible, but she could feel it.
You Xi looked up. Not far in front of her, a slender man was walking towards her. Light golden light pieces kept falling from his fingers, and the infected people on the road were cleaned up one by one by these light pieces.
The other party quickened his pace and stretched out his hand to her. You Xi continued to move forward with soft steps, and finally reached his hand. She
supported his arm and let herself lean on him. In this bloody apocalyptic world, the man in front of her was the one she trusted the most, and she could rest assured to leave her back to him.
You Xi closed her eyes and let the other person hold her up: "...Do you think I'm doing useless work? I know clearly that these worlds may just be a book, a story world, a video... But now, I can no longer turn a blind eye like before..."
"No, you did a good job."
"Next time, I will control my supernatural powers more strictly... I won't be so reckless..."
He held her and walked towards the truck, and the arc of light blocked the cold rain falling on them and the blood under their feet.
Because of the use of energy and his overly weak body, he walked very slowly and every step was difficult.
However, his hand holding her was always steady.
After a moment, he spoke: "...ζ‖╓〤."
You Xi:...?
He repeated the pronunciation once again, and then whispered, "This is the pronunciation of my name."
**
In the distance, at the other end of the convoy, a tall black figure stood behind a big tree.
Not long ago, he took advantage of the chaos to escape from the silver-gray armored RV, but because he saw her, he did not leave immediately.
Around him, there were scattered infected people who were attracted by the bloody smell and sound of the convoy, passing by him and heading towards that end.
Those infected people clearly saw him, but turned a blind eye to him.
"Youxi..." The black figure slowly read out the name, his voice hoarse and broken.
