Chapter 126 The Unkillable Zombie
"Then I'll smash his hand first."
Lin Xi's voice was not loud, but every word was clear.
Some of her teammates behind her were confused, while others sided with Lin Xi.
After hearing Lin Xi's words, Yang Yicheng's men did not point guns at Lin Xi, but they stared at them with hostility.
Yang Yicheng also heard this.
He simply waved his hand to signal everyone to keep an eye on the orchard.
Then he chuckled, completely ignoring Lin Xi's words, and said in a helpless tone, "I've noticed that you people... always exude a kind of clear-eyed stupidity."
Xiang Xin raised his gun: "San San, let's smash his mouth first."
Yang Yicheng was not on guard and didn't care at all.
He pointed to the orchard ahead: "Can you even see who the enemy is?"
Everyone looked in the direction he was pointing, and their common enemy appeared—
Three writhing zombies were rushing towards them.
"Bang!!"
"Bang! Bang!!"
The men Yang Yicheng brought were already on guard, pointing their guns at the orchard. As soon as the zombies appeared, they were shot.
Three gunshots rang out, and two zombies fell. The remaining one tilted its head, as if enraged by the gunshot, and lunged at the crowd even more violently.
The two zombies that had just fallen to the ground got up as well.
Lin Xi, Xiang Xin, Lu Wei, and Liang Hui all looked puzzled: "?"
Wasn't Iron Wolf Base supposed to be a very strong base? How come their aim is so bad?
Three shots were fired, but not a single zombie was taken down.
However, Yang Yicheng narrowed his eyes, finding it hard to believe.
The zombies were getting closer and closer, and the gunmen started firing at them.
"Bang bang bang!"
Gunfire erupted continuously for a time.
Lin Xi also fired a shot.
However, the three zombies, except for those who were shot and knocked to the side or fell down, were able to get back up.
Lin Xi's eyes widened:
Her right-hand marksmanship averages over 9.5, so how could she miss a headshot on a zombie at such close range?!
And Lu Wei, Yang Yicheng, and the others all failed?!
No……
The zombies had bullet marks on their skulls, but their blood had congealed and wouldn't spurt, though there were definitely circular wounds on their foreheads.
Just as the zombies were about to pounce, everyone nimbly rolled away and scattered, avoiding them.
Liang Hui couldn't help but curse, "Holy crap... is this head bulletproof?"
Behind them, neither Yang Yicheng's teammates nor Lin Xi's teammates dared to fire because the zombies were too close and they were afraid of injuring their comrades.
Close-quarters combat is not suitable for shooting, and everyone has already proven that shooting is ineffective, so they have all adopted other measures—
Lu Wei threw a heavy punch at the zombie's vulnerable back of the head, but his hand hurt from the blow.
Liang Hui changed his knife, but no matter which angle he tried to stab, he couldn't penetrate the zombie's skull.
Xiang Xin used a baseball bat to hit the zombie's head, making loud "bang bang" sounds, but the head didn't explode.
Lin Xi quickly grabbed an axe. Seeing that her three teammates' attacks on the head were ineffective, she switched to chopping at the zombie's neck, but there seemed to be something hard inside supporting it, making it impossible to cut off the zombie's head.
She became a little flustered and hastily swung the axe a few times, only managing to chop off a few pieces of zombie flesh. The zombie twisted its head and stood up again.
Damn it.
"You can't kill me! Run!"
Some were carrying axes, some were clenching their fists, some were holding baseball bats, and some were carrying knives; they were all clutching their weapons and fleeing in the opposite direction.
After they ran for a while, they realized that the zombies hadn't caught up.
Lin Xi turned her head to look closely and saw that the three zombies would pounce forward, then fall to the ground, get up again, and pounce again.
Because of the presence of living people in front of them, they relentlessly tried to rush forward, but could not advance even an inch further.
Because they each have an iron chain hanging from one of their feet.
The chain ended at the orchard fence.
Yang Yicheng glanced at the four of them and said impatiently, "Finally back."
He raised his gun again.
Feeling slighted, Xiang Xin couldn't help but retort: "If shooting is useless, why are you holding a gun?"
Yang Yicheng ignored him and continued aiming, keeping the gun in a different position for a long time.
Lin Xi observed that the tip of his gun was still aimed at the zombie's head.
According to her observation, although Yang Yicheng is stubborn and self-willed, he will not do anything futile.
"Bang--"
Gunshots rang out, and a zombie was shot in the eye. It twitched and could barely move.
"Bang--"
Yang Yicheng fired another shot, blowing out the zombie's other eye. The zombie fell to the ground and never got up again.
Everyone understood—
They had all learned about zombies; the zombie virus invades the human brain and uses the brain to control the behavior of "zombies," so the most effective way to attack is to shoot them in the head.
They tried various weapons but couldn't get a headshot; they only left wounds on the zombie's skin. This means the zombie's skull has hardened, and there's something protecting its brain.
However, the two holes in the eye sockets are not protected by the skull, making them their only weakness.
The brain is behind the eyes, but you still need to design the angle to accurately hit the brain.
The others raised their guns and aimed at the zombies' eyes, aiming for headshots.
The shooting range is suddenly reduced to the small area of the eye. In addition, a unique shooting angle is required, and since the zombie is a moving object, headshots are very difficult.
Lin Xi hadn't been using guns for very long, so his accuracy wasn't up to par.
Yang Yicheng and Lu Wei, who had been in contact with guns before, were slightly better off.
It took several shots to take down the three zombies.
Someone asked, "What are the chains on the zombies' feet for?"
Lin Xi and the others in the front row had solemn expressions on their faces.
It's not just because of the emergence of mutated zombies.
The chains on the zombies' feet indicate that they belong to someone.
This means that their enemy...
It is a person.
