As they continued their exploration, they were immediately startled when they opened the supermarket door.
The team members in front looked terrified.
"What...what's going on?"
Because there was no electricity, the supermarket was unusually dark, but the light shining through the door made it easy to see that the supermarket was filled with zombie corpses.
That's right, it's a zombie corpse.
It was a mummified corpse, with only a loose, bluish-gray skin hanging from the bones, as if all the moisture had been drained from it.
This was unusual. Yao Yao's previously indifferent demeanor changed. After a moment of contemplation, she said, "Let's retreat first. The situation here is unclear. Let's report to the base first..."
"ah!"
A scream came from the back of the group.
Then his teammates turned around and exclaimed, "Dongzi! It's Dongzi! Dongzi has been dragged away by a black rope!"
The scream seemed to have been the trigger; instantly, strange sounds echoed from the dimly lit supermarket.
Like the rustling sound of a mollusk rubbing against the ground, it sent chills down your spine.
At this moment, 001 also sounded an alarm in Yao Yao's mind: "Get out of here quickly! Something is approaching you from inside, and you are no match for it."
So he made a snap decision: "Leave here!"
However, some people were not able to evacuate in time and were dragged inside by things sticking out of the supermarket entrance.
The thing approaches silently, and once it grabs its prey, it moves with incredible speed, leaving only a shadow in sight.
Yao Yao's expression changed, and she stepped to the side. A black branch extended from where Yao Yao had been standing.
Having missed its target, the creature seemed enraged and stopped hiding. Countless black tentacles appeared nearby, launching a rapid attack.
Several team members were unable to defend him, and after a scream, tentacles pierced his body, quickly flattening him at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Like the zombie corpses in the supermarket.
Yao Yao's expression was solemn. "You guys run first, I'll hold them off."
Then he took out a handful of pea seeds from the bag and started to encourage their growth.
Soon, several giant pea plants appeared around Yao Yao and began fighting with the black tentacles. However, it was clear that Yao Yao's pea roots were no match for the black tentacles.
Just as it was about to be torn off, Yao Yao directly controlled the pod to burst open. The bursting pod bounced onto the tentacle, and the black trigger immediately shrank.
Seeing that this method worked, Yaoyao followed suit and launched an attack on the surrounding black tentacles.
Sure enough, the creature seemed quite afraid and hesitated to approach, shrinking back instead.
Yao Yao didn't want to fight. In fact, stimulating the birth of such things would also deplete her mental and physical strength. Continuing to fight would only worsen her situation.
Seeing that the surrounding group had all retreated, he also quietly moved back.
Finally, after getting away from the supermarket and the tentacles stopped chasing them, the team members breathed a sigh of relief.
Beginning the Path of Survival
"Damn it, what the hell is this? Didn't we agree that there were just a lot of zombies? What is this thing?"
Another team member was concerned about something else: "I wonder how the Cloud team is doing now."
After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
Everyone witnessed the tentacle attack. In the blink of an eye, a living person was sucked dry and turned into a dried corpse, while she was left there to withstand it alone. Although they had only known each other for less than a day, they were able to survive thanks to Yaoyao holding on. The atmosphere became somber.
"Hey, what can we do if we're worried? You guys saw how dangerous that place was just now. We can't exactly go back to look for it, can we? I finally managed to escape, I don't want to die."
