Chapter 236 Another Crisis
"Brother Han, have you resolved things on your end too?" Xiao Zhao turned and asked.
"Yes, the mutants that have undergone secondary mutation are indeed stronger than before, but they are still under control."
As Han Shuo spoke, he took out a glass bottle from his pocket and casually tossed it to Xiao Zhao.
"Xiao Zhao, go and retrieve the turbid fluid from the Claw Zombie."
He was curious whether the turbid fluid in the brain of the mutant that had undergone the second mutation was still the same as before.
"good!"
Xiao Zhao responded and took the bottle to quickly retrieve the turbid liquid.
The fat man got excited at the mention of treasure hunting.
He stopped resting and stood up from where he was.
"I'll dig up this one!"
Soon, the fat man extracted the turbid fluid from the super-strong zombie.
"Here, two drops!"
Han Shuo nodded; the turbid liquid produced by this mutant was just as he had expected.
A short while later, Xiao Zhao also ran back.
"Brother Han, the Claw Zombie gave us two drops of turbid liquid, one more than before."
As he spoke, he handed the glass bottle containing the turbid liquid to Han Shuo.
"oh?"
Han Shuo was overjoyed, staring at the glass bottle in his hand, and said with a smile.
"It seems that the danger level of the clawed zombies after the second mutation has also increased."
"That's more like it. The claws have become so long and the speed has become so fast. We should release more turbid liquid."
The fat man picked up the large shield from the ground, slung it back over his shoulder, and continued speaking.
"By the way, why would two different mutant species appear in the same place at the same time? We need to be careful about that."
Han Shuo nodded; he agreed with the fat man's words.
"Indeed, we have never encountered a situation like this before. It seems that different species will not kill each other."
"Fortunately, there are still no ordinary zombies in the areas where the mutants have appeared, which is good news."
"If mutants and ordinary zombies coexist, the dangers they pose are far more terrifying."
After he said that, everyone present unconsciously imagined a scene where the alien species was mixed in with ordinary zombies.
The fat man couldn't help but shudder.
Han Shuo continued.
"Alright, in short, the announcement issued by the director earlier was correct. Nuclear radiation can indeed cause some species to undergo secondary mutations."
"Also, I have a feeling that there are more alien species now. We've only been out for half a day and we've already encountered two."
Xiao Zhao said, "Yes, Brother Han, you're right. A year ago, when we went to the pharmaceutical processing plant, we didn't encounter a single mutant species for more than half a month."
"Yes, it's going to be even more dangerous outside now. In short, we need to be more careful from now on."
Han Shuo waved his hand, deciding not to waste any more time, and prepared to check on the corpse ahead.
"Alright, stop overthinking it, let's go take a look ahead."
"Um!"
...
Soon, the four arrived at the location of the corpse. The only survivor of that team had escaped to the dead forest but was eventually caught by the alien species.
By this time, the corpse's face had been completely disfigured, and the ground was surrounded by bright red flesh and blood.
Even its abdomen had been gouged out, leaving it a bloody mess.
Intestines and stomach, everywhere on the ground.
The scene was extremely disgusting...
The fat man was already immune to zombies, but when he saw the gruesome deaths of humans, he couldn't help but gag twice.
"Ugh! Ugh!"
Han Shuo's sense of smell became even more acute, and the stench of blood in the air continuously entered his nostrils.
He frowned slightly, held his breath, and began searching through the corpse.
A sky-blue card indicates that this person was a free agent in an underground research institute during his lifetime.
There was also a pistol and some miscellaneous items.
There were still some bullets left in the pistol, and Han Shuo didn't want to waste them.
He casually picked up a piece of cloth from the ground, wiped the blood off the pistol, and then put it away.
He waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave.
"Let's go, there's nothing useful left."
"Mmm, mmm, mmm!"
The fat man kept nodding, as if he had taken a stimulant. He felt that if he stayed here any longer, he would really throw up.
The four turned and left, preparing to exit the dead woods and return to the car to continue along the original route.
Han Shuo had only taken a few steps back when suddenly, a roar came from the dead woods.
"Aww!"
The moment he heard the roar, his face instantly darkened.
"run!"
As soon as he finished shouting, Fatty, Xiao Zhao, and Wai Di also heard the roar.
Without hesitation, none of the four looked back. They continued to flee frantically, following the footprints they had come from.
Han Shuo and Fatty reacted the fastest, and they ran at the front of the group.
Because they were extremely familiar with that roar; it sounded just like the corpse dog they had encountered in the greenhouse that day.
Most importantly, they both knew that corpse dogs appeared in packs.
One is easy to deal with, but a group of them is far more terrifying than a zombie!
Sure enough, two seconds later, a deafening roar came from behind.
"Awooo! Awooo! Awooo! Awooo! Awooo!..."
"My God, what the hell is that behind me?"
Although Xiao Zhao couldn't see the creature behind him, just hearing that roar made him feel a sense of fear.
The fat man shouted without turning his head.
"Run! Corpse Dog, wild dog infected with the Ice Crystal Virus!"
"Han Shuo and I have encountered this before, but the number this time is definitely much greater!"
As soon as the words fell, Wai Di suddenly blurted out a few words.
"It's not a dog, it's a wolf!"
"Wolf!?"
Han Shuo's heart skipped a beat, but he did not question Wai Di's judgment.
Because he knew that Wai Di had lived with wolves for many years and should be able to easily distinguish between their voices.
As Han Shuo ran, he listened carefully to the shouts behind him.
He could tell that the roar was sharper.
At that moment, he also heard the sound of footsteps rushing towards him from behind.
Han Shuo quickly took a moment to look back.
A dense array of red eyes appeared in his field of vision, and then a swift figure emerged from them.
As expected! It's a wolf! A zombie wolf infected with the Ice Crystal Virus!
One, two, ten, a hundred...
Swarms of corpse wolves poured out from the depths of the withered forest, all with only one target.
Those are the four humans ahead!
"Damn it, it really is a zombie wolf! Its speed and size are far more terrifying than the zombie hounds we encountered before!"
The fat man kept shouting, his face already covered in sweat, running as fast as he could with all his might.
"Quick! Run! We have to escape from this dead forest!"
Han Shuo also got goosebumps all over his body.
He did not expect that he would encounter two crises in just half a day after leaving the underground research institute!
This second crisis was even more overwhelming for the four, plunging them into a perilous situation!
