The figure behind them slowly began to turn around. Everyone, including Lu Yuan, took a deep breath and stared intently at the unknown "person" in the distance.
However, just as the "person" stood up, Lu Yuan pulled the trigger without hesitation.
The instant the bullet was pulled from the muzzle, Lu Yuan felt the monster vanish from the spot like lightning.
The speed was so fast that Lu Yuan felt the opponent's body could truly become a blur.
Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan immediately shouted loudly to his teammates.
"Be on high alert, form battle formation."
The team members also realized that the situation was indeed somewhat dangerous.
If not handled carefully, one could very well die here.
Lu Yuan cursed inwardly. He hadn't expected that after dealing with the first and second mountains, such a bizarre cannibal would appear on the third mountain.
He originally thought that such a peaceful place would not have any ghouls, but he did not expect that there would be ghouls here, and they were even S-level ghouls.
The difference between S-class and T-class ghouls lies in their speed, which makes them difficult to track; no one can clearly see their movement trajectory.
If the S-type ghouls were to attack them, they would suffer enormous casualties.
Lu Yuan was terrified. He was worried that the cannibals would attack them. At least they hadn't fired any shots before. He didn't know if the cannibals would attack them on their own initiative. Perhaps their scent would attract the cannibals.
Just as he thought of this, he heard a noise next to his teammate, and immediately that teammate pulled the trigger.
However, he was still a little too slow in firing. Lu Yuan fired a shot sharply towards the area behind the team member, but to no avail, as the S-shaped ghoul was moving too fast.
Lu Yuan fired three bullets, but they all missed.
Lu Yuan quickly went over to the teammate whose shoulder had been torn off.
He saw the team member, whose shoulder had been ripped off by the cannibal, lying on the ground screaming in agony, while he was powerless to help.
The S-type ghoul belongs to the second type of ghoul. The viruses and bacteria in its body spread extremely quickly. In just a few seconds, the eyes of the team member who had fallen to the ground began to glow white.
Then his body began to convulse continuously. Lu Yuan could see clearly that the other person was now moving at an extremely fast speed, with a drastic change every second compared to the previous second.
The men on the other side gritted their teeth. These were his brothers who had fought alongside him. He never expected that they would be gone in just ten minutes after he left home. They stared angrily, wanting to catch the cannibal to avenge their brothers.
"Oh, what a pity!"
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he pulled the trigger on the head of the cannibal.
With a bang, the cannibal, who was just about to get up, was shot in the head and staggered to the ground.
However, at that moment, a system notification sounded in Lu Yuan's mind.
[Gained 10 Perception Points]
[Gained 10 Perception Points]
[Gained 10 Perception Points]
Upon hearing these words, Lu Yuan's eyes widened in surprise.
"Wow, this works? I just killed a ghoul and I actually got thirty gratitude points?"
Lu Yuan secretly guessed that this was because if he didn't fire, other team members would definitely be injured.
However, Lu Yuan was indeed a little frustrated. It should have increased by 300 points, so why had it only increased by 30 points so far?
Perhaps I acted a little too early. Maybe if I had waited a little longer and shot him when he was fighting for his life, would I have earned 100 points of gratitude?
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but glance at the team members beside him, but immediately dismissed the thought from his mind.
Using team members' lives for experiments is really unacceptable.
Although Lu Yuan had told these team members long ago that their relationship was purely cooperative.
But he couldn't bring himself to treat these team members as guinea pigs. He wasn't the kind of crazy scientist who wouldn't risk human lives for his own cause.
Moreover, he now bears the responsibility of saving all the lives destroyed, so he cannot easily eliminate these people; he must come up with a better plan.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan sighed helplessly, then looked at the corpse of the ghoul sent by his team members and spoke.
"Alright, bury this guy properly. We'll continue on our way in a bit, but be careful. That ghoul hasn't left yet. Everyone stay alert and be careful not to get attacked by that S-shaped ghoul!"
With heavy hearts, the group buried the team member who had become a ghoul, and then continued on their way into the distance.
In fact, Lu Yuan should have left with his team members, but now that he thinks about it, Island No. 3 isn't very big. If they left now, it seems like all their efforts would be in vain.
He also wanted to see if this No. 3 site was suitable for growing mushrooms.
After all, there was a lot of rotten wood left on the ground. This place must have been a forest before, and a lush forest at that. Later, it may have been cut down by humans, which led to a sharp reduction in the number of trees here.
Several years have passed since the apocalypse. The trees here have fallen to the ground, covered with a thin layer of soil. It seems that this place is deserted and few people stay here.
