Chapter 35: Insect Attack

Wrapped in the cold and damp mist, Su Yue's pores were a little uncomfortable. It's not that I haven't experienced foggy weather in the past, but I've never felt like this, like walking in a dense forest, being targeted by a poisonous snake hidden behind the canopy.

Shen Hao walked in front with a scimitar in one hand and a flashlight in the other, not fast but very steady. Su Yue followed behind with two Caskal465s, her eyes flashing with silver light, and she was cautiously vigilant around. After the two of them advanced about twenty meters one after the other, Shen Hao, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.

"The situation is not right......" It was not Shen Hao who opened the way who spoke, but Su Yue who followed behind, she blinked her eyes, and she had almost used her eyesight to the limit, but unfortunately under this thick fog, she could only barely see the scenery within twenty meters.

“…… When we entered KFC before, it was obviously a street congested with vehicles in front of the door, not to mention vehicles and pedestrians, at least when we came out of the gate, two meters in front of us should be the guardrail of the sidewalk, and there was a green garbage bin next to it. But we've come so far that I can't see what it's supposed to be. Except for the KFC gate that was about to disappear behind us, there was nothing to see around, and there was an empty space everywhere! ”

"That's right...... And that's not all, you see. Shen Hao knocked the ground under his feet with the tip of his scimitar, only to see that the place that should have been a floor tile or asphalt was a brown Gobi landform, with gravel, gravel, mixed with some withered yellow grass roots, which should not be the scene that should appear in the city at all.

"It seems that some unknown changes have taken place in the space here, and we may not be in Jianghai City now." Shen Hao shone a flashlight in all directions, his face a little solemn.

Although Su Yue knew that this was in the Nightmare Realm, she was also a little scratched when she encountered this phenomenon that surpassed common sense, she lowered the muzzle of the gun in her hand, turned back to Shen Hao and asked, "What should I do next?" Go ahead or go back to KFC? If you go any further, the road you came from will be obscured by the thick fog. ”

"Keep going, of course." Shen Hao turned off the flashlight and plugged it back into the holster on his waist, in this weird dense fog, the flashlight with insufficient beam penetration really didn't come in handy, it was better to save the battery for later use. "Since it's not a space we know well, it's not surprising that anything happens, that KFC doesn't have any defenses to rely on, there is no point in staying in it except for passive waiting, if there is really danger, it is better to be trapped inside such a narrow storefront than to have enough detour space outside."

"But...... Which direction should we go? Su Yue took out the compass from his pocket, but unfortunately the black and white pointer was like a spinning top, and it seemed that he had entered this fog, and the magnetic field was completely disordered.

"Let's take a walk around first, anyway, it's about the same in any direction, let's find out first, where are there still survivors nearby, and it's easy to hide ourselves by mixing in the crowd." Shen Hao said, put the scimitar on his shoulder, casually found the direction and continued to move forward.

The two of them walked for nearly an hour, at first looking at the empty Gobi Desert, until half an hour later, the surrounding scenery began to change, occasionally you can see the street lamps and guardrails that the city should have, but more of them are some strange-shaped rocks and some unnamed shrubs.

"It seems that we have not simply entered another dimension, but another unknown space has overlapped with the Jianghai City where we were before." Shen Hao stroked a brown rock more than a person tall in front of him and said in a low voice. These abrupt rocks are very hard in texture, but they are not the most common species on earth.

"Spatial overlap?" Su Yue has watched American science fiction movies a lot, and she can understand these terms to some extent. She walked over to a rather dense bush and casually reached out Caskal465 to play with it.

Suddenly, a slight tingling sensation came from the imprint on his right arm, and at the same time, a shout from Shen Hao sounded in his ears: "Beware! Then there was a huge force from the climbing rope around her waist, pulling her back two steps sharply.

"Huh-" A black shadow shot out from the bushes, grazing the tips of Su Yue's hair and shooting into the air. Its momentum was so fierce that it was like a sharp arrow off the string, which shocked Su Yue and a drop of cold sweat slipped down on his forehead.

Su Yue was pulled back by Shen Hao's body, and a black shadow swept over her body, and she was about to be in the dense fog opposite. After all, Su Yue is also a person who has gone through the nightmare world, and with the "enthusiastic guidance" of the three "devil coaches", his eyesight and reaction are no longer what they used to be. Although his body was out of balance, he was not in danger, and as soon as the barrel of the gun in his left hand supported the ground, Caskal465 in his right hand pointed in the direction where the black shadow flew.

"Bang-"

The sound of Caskal465's gunfire was as amazing as its power, and as the bullet was discharged, the elongated body shook slightly, and it was obvious that Su Yue could already control Caskal465's recoil very easily.

The black shadow that had almost flown to the edge of the dense fog was splashed with blood, and the small body rolled out several meters away under the thrust of the bullet. Su Yue turned over and stood still, and then followed Shen Hao towards the unknown creature.

At first glance, Su Yue almost thought it was a strange snake. But if you look closely, it looks like an enlarged bug. The elongated body is hypertrophic in the middle and slightly thinner at the ends, and the surface of the body does not have snake-like scales, but instead presents an earthworm-like ring-like structure. The head is very inconspicuous, with no regular facial features or mouthparts, except for a strange horn-like organ at the end of what should be the head.

The monster's body was almost broken in two, but it was clearly not dead yet, and it was still writhing on its own. Shen Hao frowned, slapped the strange insect into meat sauce with the knife surface of the scimitar, and was about to get up and say something, when suddenly a faint and dense sting pain began to emanate from the brand on his body.

I saw that the dense fog in front of me suddenly surged, and then countless black shadows flew from the opposite side, and when I looked closely, they were all exactly the same strange insects. Shen Hao blocked Su Yue's body with a sliding step, and the scimitar in his hand flew up and down, dancing into a ring, and all the strange insects that shot in front of him were shot down like flies. Su Yue, who was behind him, was also ready, with two guns in his hands, firing his bow left and right, and with his extraordinary visual distance, he scattered the swarm of insects that were trying to gather together a little farther away.

At this moment, although the cooperation between the two is not seamless, it can be regarded as complementing each other, and a large group of strange insects can't get close for a while. The two of them fought and retreated, and suddenly Shen Hao's slap shook twice, and his keen sense of hearing told him that in the dense fog around him, there was also a sound of snort, and it seemed that more strange insects were approaching.

"Damn, are these things trying to outflank us?" Shen Hao flicked the scimitar in his hand, bringing up a strong wind, and several strange insects that had already pounced in front of him were pulled into pieces by the volley, and the surrounding dense fog was also dyed with a few clouds of blood.

"Retreat at full speed, I'll get out of the way, you cushion behind!" After Shen Hao finished speaking, he turned around and rushed in one direction. Su Yue replaced the magazine with one hand, and while following Shen Hao wildly, he turned back from time to time to shoot, and the strange insects that followed were often smashed by the whistling bullets as soon as they probed from the dense fog. At this time, even she could hear the wriggling sound of insect swarms coming from the sea of fog around her, and when she looked around, she could even see dense black dots gathered from all around with her eyesight.

However, fortunately, Shen Hao saw the opportunity in time, and before the swarm could complete the encirclement, the two had already found a weak point in the encirclement. A knife roll and a gunshot, a bloody way out, broke out of it.

I have to say that the basic physical training arranged by Shen Hao for Su Yue is really effective, and now in the process of rushing and breaking through, Su Yue is only a little panting, but he can also keep up with his pace smoothly, although the double guns in his hands are limited by the number of bullets and dare not fire on a large scale, but under the effect of the strong lethality and long-range firepower advantage, it also plays an obvious role in restraining the pursuing insect swarm.

Although there are a large number of these strange insects, the speed of travel is not too fast, and after the two sides were entangled for a few minutes, they were thrown out of a distance of dozens of meters by Shen Hao and the others, and the insect swarm sent out a reluctant commotion, and finally reluctantly gave up the chase.

At this time, Shen Hao and Su Yue had already run to the edge of the desert just now, and there seemed to be a large jungle in the distance. However, near the jungle, dozens of vehicles collided with each other, and one of them actually saw the Hummer H2 that they had abandoned.

Not long after the accident, many vehicles were still emitting billowing black smoke, but the surrounding fog was too thick to be spotted from a distance. There were many human corpses lying inside and outside the car, and the car cover and ground were mottled with blood, but judging from the posture of their death, it did not look like they died in a car accident.

"I'll go take a look." Shen Hao asked Su Yue to stay on guard, and he touched the corpse with a scimitar. As soon as he opened it slightly, Shen Hao was frowning, the death method of these corpses was almost the same, and a thumb-sized blood hole in the back of the head was the only fatal wound on their bodies. The blood hole was very deep, but it did not penetrate the entire skull, and there were no burn marks at the wound, which should not have been caused by firearms or cold weapons used by humans, which looked really weird.

Suddenly, the imprint on the back of Shen Hao's neck began to warn again, and he seemed to think of something, and violently pushed the corpse in his hand away, while his body quickly retreated.

Speaking of this series of reactions, it was not slow, but in the end, it was still a step slow, and I saw that the hands of the corpse that had just been pushed away suddenly reached out, and immediately grabbed Shen Hao's wrist holding the knife tightly!
