Chapter 524 Corpse-Transformed Seagulls
"Brother Han, this sea area is very large and the situation is unclear. There is a cliff in the southwest. Let's stop there for now."
The voice of the silver-haired man leading the way came through the communicator.
"good!"
Han Shuo gave a simple reply, nodded to the two people beside him, changed direction, and flew towards the cliff.
...
Soon, the five people retrieved their hang gliders and landed on the cliff one after another.
If they encountered a flock of corpse birds at sea, there would be nowhere for Han Shuo and his companions to land and hide. Everyone knew this, which is why they dared not be careless in the slightest.
The silver-haired man gazed at the boundless sea before him and spoke.
"Brother Han, you three should eat something and rest for a while. My sister and I will go ahead and scout the way."
"Alright, Silver-haired Brother, thank you for your hard work," Han Shuo replied.
As soon as the voice faded, the silver-haired man didn't waste any time. He waved to the blond man, jumped off the cliff, and re-unfolded his hang glider.
"Ninth Sister, let's go!"
...
The two quickly disappeared into the distance. Han Shuo took out some food and casually tossed it to Fatty and Xiao Zhao.
"Let's take a break."
The three of them ate as they sat together and chatted.
After waiting for about an hour, the silver-haired and blonde-haired people returned from afar.
The fact that these two have been gone for so long shows that this sea area is very large.
...
As soon as the silver-haired man landed, he hurriedly spoke.
"The situation is alright. We haven't spotted any swarms of corpse birds ahead yet, but it will take us half an hour to fly at full speed using a hang glider to reach the opposite shore."
"Um……"
Han Shuo frowned and asked.
Are there any small islands along the way?
"No, there are only a few large rocks, but they are all exposed to the sun and cannot conceal your figures."
"Oh, I see..."
Han Shuo muttered to himself, then stood up after thinking for a moment.
"Let's go, stick to the previous formation, nothing should go wrong for the next half hour!"
"good!"
Without further ado, everyone set off again.
...
The hang glider unfolded again, and the five people maintained their formation as they flew over the sea. In the blink of an eye, they gradually disappeared into the distance.
"No abnormalities ahead!"
"All is normal at the rear!"
"Neither the drones on the left nor the right sides detected any signs of a flock of corpse birds!"
...
The communicators in Han Shuo's and the other two's ears kept transmitting reports from the silver-haired and blonde-haired men.
5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes...
For the first half of the trip, everyone got along well and everything went smoothly.
And so, without realizing it, Han Shuo vaguely saw the coastline ahead.
His heart was somewhat at ease.
"Phew~ Thank goodness everything's alright, we're almost there."
However, the silver-haired creature that was about to fly out of the sea noticed something amiss.
He saw that a large number of zombified seagulls had appeared on the shore at some unknown time, gathered together, and were eating the corpses of some zombies.
"Damn, are Brother Han and his crew really that unlucky? There weren't any seagulls just now, where did all these come from?" the silver-haired man thought to himself.
He didn't have time to think about the problem too much, because at the same time he discovered the zombie seagulls, the zombie seagulls also discovered him.
Seeing the seagulls take off one after another, the silver-haired man quickly shouted into the communicator.
"Oh no! Danger ahead! Everyone be careful!"
...
At this point, Han Shuo and his two companions were about 10 kilometers away from the coastline ahead, while Jin Feng was further back.
Ten kilometers would normally be considered an absolutely safe distance, but on the open sea, against the unobstructed blue sky, these few constantly moving black dots appeared so clearly.
The flock of corpse-like seagulls on the shore took off and swooped down.
As they flew past the silver-haired creature, they didn't sense the scent of a living person and instinctively ignored it.
After passing each other, they set their sights on the black dots below.
...
At the same time, Han Shuo and the other two also heard the silver-haired man's shouts from the communicator.
When they saw the large, ever-approaching red light ahead, cold sweat broke out all over their bodies.
"It's a flock of corpse-turned seagulls! It's a flock of corpse-turned seagulls!"
Just then, the silver-haired man's reminder came again.
"My God, is my luck really that bad?" the fat man shouted in alarm, his eyes darting around frantically.
Unfortunately, where could they find shelter on the high seas? Crisis struck suddenly!
...
Han Shuo acted decisively, quickly analyzed the situation, and promptly gave orders to the two people beside him.
"Quick! Land! Only by entering the sea can we escape the pursuit of the zombie seagulls!"
"good!"
"Understood, Brother Han!"
Fatty and Xiao Zhao quickly responded and, without the slightest hesitation, maneuvered their hang gliders to hurtle downwards.
All three knew that this was the only way to escape at that moment.
...
A dozen seconds later, three splashes rang out as Han Shuo and the other two retracted their hang gliders just before entering the sea and plunged headfirst into the water.
The three held their breath, not daring to linger near the surface, and continued to descend.
Before long, the sea returned to calm, and as time passed, the flock of corpse-turned seagulls finally arrived.
"Crackling, crackling..."
The sound of wings flapping echoed across the sea.
They sensed the presence of living people who had just been there, and seemed to become ferocious. Instead of leaving immediately, they circled and hovered in the air.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find Han Shuo and the other two.
The zombie seagulls, after all, act solely on instinct and are somewhat foolish.
As the breeze gradually dispersed the scent of living people in the air, they stopped lingering in mid-air, changed direction, and set their sights on the last distant black dot.
...
The flock of corpse-turned seagulls flew away, ignoring the blond man as they passed by, just as they had done at the beginning, and soon disappeared into the distance.
A close call, the crisis is over!
"Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~"
Several heavy breathing sounds rang out as Han Shuo and his two companions surfaced from the sea.
"My god, that was so exciting!" The fat man stammered, slapping the seawater with both hands.
"They survived! They survived again..."
Xiao Zhao lost his baseball cap when he went into the sea. Shaking his wet short hair, he felt a sense of relief, as if he had survived a disaster.
"Alright, alright, stop floating in the sea and get ashore first."
After leaving a message, Han Shuo clapped his arms and swam forward.
Although they escaped the crisis safely, they were unable to re-launch the hang glider in their backpacks after entering the sea.
There was no better way to leave the sea than to swim to the shore ahead...
