Chapter 480 Looting and Leaving
Actually, Han Shuo had wanted to ask more questions, more information about the Corpse-Wearing Man organization.
After all, such opportunities are rare...
However, he couldn't afford to waste too much time here.
In the communication just now, when the man was talking to his companion, the other party said that they were heading this way and would arrive in about an hour.
At this moment, time is limited, and he cannot spend all the remaining time questioning people.
...
Han Shuo looked at the five headless corpses on the ground and paid them little attention.
He turned around and lit a torch, then, under its light, rummaged through the small villa.
He wanted to see if these corpse-wearing men were carrying anything important; he wouldn't easily let go of such an opportunity to plunder.
Food, weapons, documents, instruments, radar... and so on, a whole series of items were quickly unearthed by him.
Among them, Han Shuo also discovered something he had never seen before: a controller covered with buttons.
"Huh? Is this controller for controlling the zombies' movements?"
He muttered something uncertain to himself and started examining it.
He randomly pressed a few buttons on top, and sure enough, the next moment he noticed that the horde of zombies below had suddenly become somewhat strange...
Suddenly, the zombies stopped standing still and seemed to become extremely violent.
They surged into the small villa from the inside out, and judging by the momentum, they could probably engulf the villa in a horde of zombies in just a short while.
"Fuck you!"
The scene before his eyes truly startled Han Shuo.
He knew he must have pressed the button to deactivate the zombie control. There were five corpses inside the small building, and the thick stench of blood in the air made the zombie horde instinctively rush towards them.
Only a few seconds had passed, and the fastest zombie had already reached the doorway on the top floor.
Han Shuo looked at the dense horde of corpses behind the zombie and instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
The next second, he quickly pressed the button back.
As expected, the zombie horde stopped its rampage and returned to its static state.
"Phew~"
"That scared me to death! I knew I shouldn't have been so impulsive; I almost killed myself!"
Han Shuo wiped the sweat from his forehead, stopped studying the complicated controller, and tossed it into his backpack, intending to take it back to see if the silver-haired guy and the others could analyze the technology and gain some other insights.
This thing is good, but he doesn't have time to fully understand it right now.
Moreover, he didn't want to develop along the path of the Corpse-Wearing Man. Even if he could control these zombies, he wouldn't do it.
Firstly, it has significantly delayed my progress.
Secondly, he always felt that using this method to control zombies was somewhat unstable, and he feared that one day a major malfunction would occur, and he would be swallowed up by the zombie horde.
Of course, there's also the most important point: Han Shuo felt a strong sense of nausea from being around these zombies for a long time...
...
After that, he stopped thinking about it and took the opportunity to test the effects of smearing zombie blood on himself.
The experiment revealed that a distance of one meter could indeed confuse the zombies' sense of smell.
However, as soon as you get close to a zombie, even if it's covered in zombie blood, the zombie will still instinctively sniff its nose and raise its head to stare at you with a fierce look.
It was obvious that at this distance, some of the aura of a living person emanating from him was still leaking out.
After Han Shuo had a general idea of these details, he stopped researching them too much.
He continued to work on important matters, starting to pack the items he had found in the room.
These are all his spoils for tonight. Regardless of whether they are useful to him now, he will take everything he can.
...
After everything was packed, Han Shuo glanced at the time.
At this point, half an hour had passed since the man and his companion lost communication.
Having learned his lesson the hard way, he won't be making the evacuation at the exact time this time, for fear of some unnecessary accidents along the way.
Without wasting any more time, Han Shuo quickly started loading the truck after confirming that there was a medium-sized truck downstairs.
Large boxes, small boxes... a few minutes later, all the looted items were loaded onto the vehicle.
"Hmm... With so many zombies all around, how should we deal with them? If we just ram them, the corpses could easily get stuck in the wheels."
Han Shuo thought for a moment and decided not to press the controller randomly again this time. For safety's sake, he decided to lead the way himself.
brush!
The black crystal Tang sword was drawn, and a slaughterous feast unfolded amidst the horde of zombies.
Zombies fell one after another at his feet, and a few minutes later, he tore open a gap in the wall all by himself.
Afterwards, it took him quite a while to clean up the body on the ground.
At this point, 45 minutes had passed, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, the five companions of the corpse-wearing man would arrive in 15 minutes.
...
"Huff~ Huff~"
Han Shuo, panting heavily, dared not rest and was drenched in sweat as he prepared to get into the car and leave immediately.
When he reached for the car door, he realized he'd forgotten his keys...
He quickly returned to the room on the roof, searched the waist of one of the corpses for the key, went back downstairs, opened the driver's side door, and finally started the truck.
Before leaving, he even rummaged through the wardrobe in the small villa and took out a clean set of clothes, stuffing them into his backpack...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A plume of black smoke billowed from the exhaust pipe, indicating that this medium-sized truck hadn't been maintained in a long time. Coupled with the fact that the fuel had deteriorated, the vehicle's performance had deteriorated significantly.
Han Shuo didn't care about these things; as long as the car could run, that was fine.
Then, after shifting gears, he stepped on the gas, and the truck sped away through the horde of corpses...
...
After leaving the villa, Han Shuo drove for quite a distance before finding a place to camp.
After working so hard all day, he was quite tired.
Ignoring the filth on his body, he locked the door and drifted off to sleep...
...
The night passed quickly.
The next morning, Han Shuo drove to a small river.
He quickly took off his clothes, which were covered in zombie blood, and plunged into the water.
Once ashore, he was no longer filthy. There was no one or any zombies around. After letting the wind dry the water droplets off his body, he put on his new clothes.
"My God, last night was so uncomfortable."
Han Shuo casually complained, but didn't linger there for long. After eating a simple meal, he drove off again.
That afternoon, he heard gunshots coming from a city far ahead.
This time, his efforts finally paid off. When he reached out to check, he finally saw some familiar faces.
