"Ah! My leg!" A young soldier screamed as a sharpened steel bar pierced his calf and he fell to the ground.
"Watch out!" another soldier warned, but his protective suit was ripped open by a rusty machete! Thick red mist instantly rushed into the damaged area!
The soldier's face changed drastically. He clutched his neck and coughed violently, and his skin began to turn gray at a visible speed! At the same time, large and small red swellings appeared all over his body.
"Damn it!" Zhao Chun couldn't help but swear.
The toxic fumes now are not like they were back then; even inhaling a little bit can cause poisoning.
The soldier whose leg had been pierced was being kicked by several thugs!
Witnessing the tragic state of his comrades, the string of "restraint" in Zhao Chun's mind snapped completely!
"Fire! Anyone carrying weapons who attacks our personnel will be killed without mercy!" He drew his pistol sharply, pointed it at the head of the thug who had slashed through his protective suit with a machete, and pulled the trigger without hesitation!
"Bang!"
The gunshot was crisp and deadly. The thug's head exploded like a watermelon, splattering red and white matter all over the faces of those nearby.
At the command, the soldiers, who had been holding back their anger, unleashed a powerful burst of fire! Precise bursts of fire rang out, and the gunmen were instantly blown to the head and fell to the ground!
The thugs who charged at the front and attacked most fiercely were also hit in vital areas by bullets and fell down convulsing.
The chaotic crowd was stunned by the sudden bloodshed; the momentum of the charge abruptly halted, and terrified screams replaced the frantic roars.
"Tsk~~ How pitiful!" The players behind did not make a move.
Some people who saw this scene couldn't help but shake their heads.
The armed soldiers were more than enough to deal with these ordinary people. If it weren't for their old feelings of being fellow human beings, those young soldiers wouldn't have been injured in the first place.
Yu Liu chuckled, a hint of regret on his face, but Xiao Jin could hear the sarcasm behind his laughter.
kindness!
It's the most useless thing ever!
Just then, Xiao Jin's gaze, like a cold probe, suddenly swept across the back of the chaotic crowd.
She keenly sensed something unusual.
Among several shivering women and children, a middle-aged man wearing a relatively clean jacket and glasses, who looked quite refined, was looking down, but a strange, cold smile was curving his lips.
His eyes, unlike those of the people around him, were not filled with fear or madness, but rather with a pure, inhuman coldness and mockery.
His lips moved as if he were silently speaking to an agitated young man beside him.
The young man, as if injected with adrenaline, suddenly raised the iron rod in his hand again and shouted hysterically, "They killed Old Li! Fight them! We're all going to die anyway! Killing one is enough!"
His shout stirred up the crowd around him, who had also been incited and lost their reason, and they began to act again.
"At eleven o'clock, in the back of the crowd, the one wearing glasses and a jacket." Xiao Jin's voice rang out coldly, and the two people around him couldn't pretend they hadn't heard it.
"This is such a waste of time. How long are you going to drag this out?"
"That's true, it's boring!" Yu Liu's smile deepened, and he flicked the copper coin in his hand with a soft "ding" sound.
Immediately afterwards, the copper coin transformed into a golden thread that was almost invisible to the naked eye, instantly piercing through the gaps in the chaotic crowd!
"Pfft!"
With a soft sound, the middle-aged man wearing glasses suddenly stiffened, then looked down incredulously at his chest—where his heart had been, there was now a black hole the size of a thumb.
But what was gushing out of the cave entrance was not just blood, but also a large amount of smoky gray mist.
“Uh…hoarse…” The man, no, it should be the mutated mist demon, made a leaky sound from its throat.
It raised its head and gazed in the direction of Xiao Jin and the others. Then, the "skin" on its face began to twist and peel off like melting wax, revealing the gray mist beneath, its features constantly shifting and blurring.
The atmosphere around them froze.
"Monster! There's a monster!" The next second, the crowd erupted in even more terrified screams, instantly creating chaos as people frantically scattered in all directions.
"As expected, it's you bunch of bastards causing trouble again!" Seeing this, Zhao Chun's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he raised his hand to fire two more shots!
"Bang! Bang!"
The bullet accurately struck the misty core that the mutated mist demon had just exposed. It let out a sharp, piercing screech that was completely inhuman. Its entire body twisted and swelled violently, then exploded with a "bang," turning into a large cloud of rapidly dissipating gray mist.
As the mutated mist demon dissipated, several items clattered to the ground where it had vanished—three syringes shimmering with a faint blue fluorescence! Purification serum!
This was the first time Xiao Jin had ever seen a living mutated mist ghost, and she raised an eyebrow.
Just as it looked exactly like a human, and had the same weaknesses as the base leader described, it was so weak that anyone could kill it.
Moreover, Xiao Jin did not expect that the amount of serum dropped by the mutated fog ghost was three times that of the special fog ghost!
Seeing this, Xiao Jin's gaze continued to wander through the crowd, and soon she locked onto several sneaky figures again.
Meanwhile, the others also discovered the mutated fog demon.
Players with ranged attack capabilities didn't even bother getting out of their vehicles; they simply locked onto the mutated mist ghosts in the crowd from afar and used their items to kill them.
Without these troublemakers, the survivors at the front completely lost their backbone, and the soldiers immediately stepped forward to control the utterly distraught crowd.
Weapons were confiscated, and the wounded were identified.
Zhao Chun walked to the place where the mutated mist ghosts had disappeared with a livid face, picked up the three vials of serum, and looked at the fresh human bloodstains left on the ground. His eyes were extremely solemn.
Xiao Jin and the others didn't know, but this wasn't the first time Zhao Chun had dealt with mutated fog ghosts.
Previously, they could only instinctively imitate and launch sneak attacks, but now they have learned to manipulate people's hearts and incite hatred!
Zhao Chun dared not imagine what would happen if one day even their last remaining flaw disappeared…
Perhaps noticing that his expression was off, the players couldn't help but frown.
Hadn't he stabilized the situation? What's wrong with him?
Before long, the players learned the reason for Zhao Chun's distress.
The others didn't care about the fear and heaviness in his eyes at all. After all, they wouldn't stay here for long. Let the Mist Demon evolve if it wants to!
Xiao Jin understood perfectly.
After all, in the previous life, the advanced zombies performed even better than the mutated fog ghosts. Whether it was a small base or a large base, they were basically all infiltrated by the advanced zombies.
When monsters don perfect human skin and mingle among the masses, that is the true end of the world...
