Chapter 411 Essence of the Moon
Seeing those corpses crawling out from the sea of corpses and walking towards them, almost everyone subconsciously took a few steps back.
Lao Gao, who was standing by, asked with even greater confidence, "They've been dead for several days, yet they're still able to move. So, are they zombies?"
Is this the point?
Huang Jinghe said: "Whatever it is, this is not normal."
Ling Jiang immediately replied, "Of course it's not normal. In such hot weather, these corpses would have rotted long ago. But whether it's a zombie or a zombie, there shouldn't be any rotten corpses."
Lan Jin recalled and said, "No, that's not right. The bodies before were dragged far away, so we couldn't smell them. But the bodies here are so close, and there are so many of them, yet we don't seem to smell any rotting smell in the past few days."
And judging from the way these corpses crawl, they are probably zombies. After all, zombies jump, but zombies don't.
The four of them gathered together, studying the species of these things and issuing a series of analyses. However, Captain Zhou, Captain Zhang and others on the side were getting anxious. Captain Zhang even shouted from a distance, "I say, you four, stop analyzing. The sky is not clear. Why don't we get together and analyze it after we solve the problem?"
Lan Jin said, "How can we solve this? How else can we solve this? Living things are afraid of electricity, but who knows if dead things are afraid of electricity?"
Of course people are afraid, no matter life or death. There is nothing in this world that is not afraid of electricity. Living things can be electrocuted to death by electricity, and dead things can be burnt by electricity. The only difference is the amount of electricity.
Lao Gao said, "Sister Lan, try a little electric shock first to see if it works. If it doesn't, just burn it all. I don't believe they're not afraid of fire."
Lan Jin immediately used his special ability and instantly electrocuted a small mountain of corpses not far away, causing it to tremble on the spot.
Just as Lan Jin thought, nothing is immune to electricity. They were immediately shocked by Lan Jin and kept shaking on the spot.
But at this moment, the amount of electricity used by Lan Jin was too small, which only slowed down their movement a little, and after a while they continued to move forward.
The way they were now, it was as if Lan Jin's lightning ability was ineffective, and everyone who saw this scene was frightened and took several steps back.
Lan Jin decisively increased the power and sent the electricity towards that direction again.
The amount of electricity was really huge. Not only did it burn all the corpses black, but the area around that area was also bright with lightning, like polar day, making it impossible for people to open their eyes.
With such a huge amount of electricity, even the body was drained of electricity, so naturally it was impossible to continue. The amount of electricity just now really scared not only the people in the base, but even those species that were not sure whether they were zombies or undead, and they were so scared that they dared not move.
But let's just say, do these things even know how to be afraid? Do they even have an IQ?
Almost instantly, all of them realized what was happening, and their expressions became even uglier.
Captain Zhou said with a determined look, "Don't let any of them go. All the people with special abilities, absolutely don't let them leave."
Captain Zhang said, "For those with ice powers, use your powers to freeze them to the ground. For those with fire powers, start burning them from the upper body..."
Captain Zhang made clear arrangements for the psychics one by one, and everyone attacked together.
However, these people's superpowers are not as strong as those of Lan Jin and the other three. Their attacks are still the same, but the effects are more than halved. It is almost impossible to ask them to use their superpowers to destroy these things. But aren't these things afraid of Mucangji's products?
Lao Gao looked in the direction of Captain Zhang and the others and asked, "Where's the wooden cannon? Give it a try. Maybe it's better than superpowers."
Compared to the team members who have just obtained their superpowers, Mu Cang is obviously more skilled in using it. As long as it is useful, the situation will definitely be much better than it is now.
When the team members heard this, they immediately suspended their superpowers, stepped back a few steps, and took out their wooden guns to attack these toys.
After all, the reaction had just occurred. After the bow pierced through the body, these things seemed to be seriously injured and immediately slowed down their climbing pace. Black blood continued to flow out of the injured places. In an instant, the air was filled with a pungent fishy smell, which smelled very bad.
But it's also clear that weapons are effective against these things.
After the end of the world, most of the team members in the base have been trapped by their superpowers and have not been able to exert their strongest strength at all. Now it is finally their time to "perform".
Almost instantly, those team members without special abilities picked up their weapons and started fighting with these things.
The arrows penetrating their bodies were not enough to knock them down, so soon someone discovered that their head was their fatal weakness.
In the team, people kept shouting, "Head, headshot."
"Don't waste your arrows. A hit to the head will kill you."
In an instant, everyone's targets were locked on these things. A quarter of an hour later, the smoke completely stopped, and the piles of corpses could only become piles of corpses again, but this time, there was no chance of climbing up again.
Before night fell, Captain Zhang quickly ordered everyone to light up all the lights that could be lit, and then he and everyone went forward to observe what these things were.
Huang Jinghe said, "Based on my experience reading many novels both domestically and internationally, this thing is probably a zombie. It was poisoned by some kind of neurotoxin, which caused a chemical reaction after death, resulting in its transformation."
"We can say for now that the neurotoxins were obtained from mutant creatures, but how did you get this chemical reaction? It was fine during the day, but now as soon as it gets dark—" Captain Zhang said, "So, you're not saying these people have absorbed the essence of the moon and transform like werewolves on full moon nights."
Although it's not impossible, it just feels ridiculous. Although the timing is indeed a coincidence, their bodies didn't change much when the sun was shining every day before, and the moon just came out -
Wait, over there at the official base.
Captain Ji said nervously, "It's over. 80% of the people at the official base have been infected, and the death toll is even higher. The base over there has limited players, so I'm afraid they won't be able to handle the outbreak."
Captain Zhou said hurriedly, "Hurry up and contact them to see what the situation is. If it doesn't work, send someone over to support them."
Captain Li was reporting the situation to the people at the base, while Captain Ji was constantly in contact with the people at the official base. However, since the official base was facing the same situation as here, they had no time to answer the phone.
