"Water! Give me water!"
The team member who was licked by the fleshy tongue rolled on the ground in pain, his skin covered in large and small blisters from the burn.
Spotting an unused water dispenser in the corner, he immediately scrambled over on all fours.
Don't go!
Before Su Zheng could finish speaking, the team member had already picked up the half-full bucket of stale purified water that had been sitting in the water dispenser for who knows how many days and poured it over his head.
"Oh no, this idiot!" Ma Dongmei's pupils constricted in panic.
The lone figure immediately attracted the attention of the mechanical monster in the corner, and two red lasers shot towards the target from an eerie angle.
Two laser beams struck his forehead and Adam's apple respectively, instantly burning out two charred, penetrating wounds.
The middle-aged man, still holding the bucket of water in both hands, swayed and fell to the ground.
The death signal not only attracted the attention of the mechanical monsters in the room, but also successfully diverted the gaze of the sixth-level zombie.
"The food spilled..."
A sickeningly sweet voice escaped from its gaping maw, and the sixth-level zombie drooled with excitement as it reached out its arm toward the corpse on the ground.
Just as the enormous hand was about to touch the corpse, the alien mouth on its palm opened once more, and its scarlet fleshy tongue began to lick frantically.
Just like a feline tongue, countless dense barbs instantly bulged on its fleshy tongue, scraping away a thick layer of flesh from the corpse with each lick.
"I... ugh..." Zhang Xiaojuan was about to open her mouth when she swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"How can this thing eat with its paws?" Ma Dongmei's face turned pale as she held the injured Lin Xiaobao in her arms.
The corpse of an adult male, about 1.8 meters tall, was licked down to a white skeleton by the giant tongue in the palm of a level 6 zombie in less than a minute.
After devouring the K3 team members whole, the Tier 6 zombie wiped its mouth with satisfaction and let out a thunderous burp.
"Their dining etiquette is really poor. I suggest Jiang Shuguang give them a proper training." Zhang Xiaojuan complained in between dealing with the swarming mechanical monsters.
He had barely finished speaking when he was so horrified by the scene before him that he bit his tongue.
After consuming the corpse, a raised red mark appeared out of nowhere on the right forearm of the level 6 zombie.
Soon, the red mark rapidly split apart, transforming into a gigantic mouth dripping with foul-smelling saliva!
"They're carrion eaters!"
Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed.
She had been browsing through the zombie encyclopedia in the system late at night when she had nothing to do, and she was particularly impressed by this type of zombie that was known as the "cleaner of the apocalypse".
Carrion eaters, as the name suggests, only like to eat rotten and spoiled food.
With a huge appetite and a lot of food, a single zombie can swagger around an entire street on its own.
They will intentionally kill any living person they encounter, then proudly display the corpse. Furthermore, each time they consume a corpse, they gain some enhanced attributes.
The enormous creature before us must have devoured countless corpses to reach the sixth rank.
Apart from Lu Sheng and Xu Yi, none of the people present had experience in direct combat with mid-to-high-level zombies.
The first time they faced this horrifying scene up close, the nauseating visuals dealt a fatal blow to everyone's already stretched nerves.
Dongyang retreated in terror, then turned and ran.
The remaining people didn't react much better. Some were so frightened that their knees buckled and they collapsed to the ground, motionless. Some screamed and fled, while others stood there dumbfounded.
The hard-won unity crumbled instantly, the team's formation fell apart, and the scene descended into chaos.
Half of the K3 team members are newly recruited members of the base, and the other half are outstanding talents recently recruited. Their obedience is not as high as that of their own people.
Seeing such a horrific scene, they all dropped their packs and sought their own way out.
Only Lu Sheng and his group, along with Su Zheng, Ma Dongmei, Lin Xiaobao, Lü Song, and the bespectacled guy, remained on the spot.
Without the shielding force of the winter sun, everyone was like a white chicken exposed to the incandescent light of a slaughterhouse, attracting all the mechanical monsters nearby to try their luck.
"Target locked."
The chilling, electronic voice rang out again.
Countless steel monsters surged in from all directions like a tidal wave, their golden glass pupils gleaming with fanatical light.
Lu Sheng's face darkened, and he glanced sideways at the little sunflower that was perched on Zhuangzhuang's head watching the commotion.
This guy has absolutely no sense of crisis; he's in such a hurry and still has the mind to watch the show.
"Chirp!"
When Lu Sheng's cold gaze swept over it, the little sunflower immediately trembled and used its leaves to protect its small flower head, hiding behind Zhuangzhuang's furry ears, and began to whine knowingly.
The new song is twice as bad.
The bald carrion eater was about to attack Lu Sheng and the others when he was suddenly pierced by Little Sunflower's demonic voice.
"That sounds awful... Shut up!"
The carrion eater's fleshy face trembled, and the last few guardians on its head swayed precariously.
At the same time, a bone whip, covered in sharp spikes, shot out from the newly grown giant mouth on its right arm and attacked the little sunflower.
The bone whip was even wrapped with a K3 uniform epaulette.
Before the sharp bone whip could even touch the little sunflower, Lu Sheng grabbed it firmly.
Taking advantage of the carrion eater's attack speed being slowed down by the demonic sound, Lu Sheng quickly gripped the bone whip, pulled it downwards with all his might, and swung his other hand to slash fiercely with his knife.
The scavenger's skin is extremely tough; Lu Sheng's knife only left a cut a few centimeters deep.
Black blood spurted from the wound, along with clumps of writhing, dark red, rotting flesh.
"I'm angry! You bad woman!"
