Chapter Seventy-Three: Death Match
The surprise attack of the corpse mutant split the newly formed "Fox Born Nine-Tails" team into three groups.
Su Qidong dodges the corpse mutants who wield their scythes from tricky angles, and has to be a little wary of his temporary teammates. He stepped on the body of a corpse morph and flew into the air to dodge the flanking monster that was trailing him, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught eye on the sickly boy with strange hair who was slicing in half from the center with a plasma cutting gun.
"Whew-whew-"
Around the corner, several more corpse morphs flicked their twisted legs and moved quickly towards the two of them, their bodies were hard, and there was no other way to stop the bloodthirsty monsters unless two of their limbs were cut off or crushed to pieces.
"Go, don't fight." Su Qidong pulled the corner of Pan's clothes, the other party looked up sensitively, and glanced at him with a smile in his natural red eyes, and a cold breath spread along the hand that grabbed the corner of his clothes and pointed to his heart.
"Understood." Pan chuckled in a low voice, looking at the corpse mutants accumulating more and more behind him, and let out a chilling wail on top of each other, the corners of his mouth were quite sarcastic, "Why don't you use your own ability?" ”
Su Qidong also looked back at the Pan that seemed to be aimed at him, and the three hook jade slowly turned in his blood-red eyes, which was even more warning. He had just received the experience of the shadow clover who went out to be bait, and with nearly thirty corpse mutants in desperation, he used a suicidal method to send Mo Li's only demon thing with magic skills, the demon clover, into the corpse mutant pile.
The last memory is the four leaves of the four-leaf clover, which spin wildly, like a meat grinder with a strong wind to chop up all the objects that come close to it! Except for its contractor, who can use it unscathed, anyone else will be attacked indiscriminately, including the Shadow Clones.
Later, whether the poor four-leaf clover, who liked to stick to itself and pull its hair, returned to the demon realm where it was safely, Su Qidong didn't know. But whoever is chopped into pieces will do it for the sake of going through the whole process at that time. will feel very unhappy. What if the fox knew that she had been cut into human patches by her plants...... So someone, who was very unhappy, seemed to be more paralyzed than just now.
Completely disoriented, the two of them just followed the corridor to avoid the monsters that were accumulating, and turned another corner, this time there was no corridor to flee again, it was a completely sealed wall.
There were still shocking traces of blood left on the cold walls, and a corpse covered in blood fell to the ground weakly, and its body was almost smashed.
"No way?" Pan slammed the plasma cutting gun into the wall, which seemed to be sturdy and not shredded.
Su Qidong patted the wall, after confirming that he could not force a breakthrough. He looked up at the ceiling and said, "There's a way!" ”
He grabbed Pan's wrist with his backhand. With his hand, he pulled out the plasma cutting gun from the wall and threw it into the air, frowning dissatisfiedly, but his hand couldn't help but let it go. The gun smashed right into the vent of the ventilation pipe, and the weapon capable of chopping through the corpse variant sliced through the mesh well, and the entire board fell off.
"Let it go!" Pan was very disgusted with the physical touch of young people. Leaning down to open the other's hand and scooping up the weapon on the ground, the corpse morph's scythe brushing his hair and slashing it over. He unbelievably twisted his body and ran towards Su Qidong, jumped up and stepped on his shoulder, reached for the edge of the ventilation pipe, and pushed it up with all his strength.
"Hey!" Su Qidong didn't expect that someone would use him as a springboard, and in a stunned moment, the corpse transformation had already rushed in front of him. The young man, who had experienced two difficult horror dungeons, almost reflexively raised his legs and swept towards the nearest corpse mutant to him.
"Whew-" The corpse morphant's corroded chest was deformed by the kick. Bumping into the corpse mutant behind him instantly created a blank period of less than a second for Su Qidong. Nailing the kunai in his hand to the hard wall, Su Qidong swooped forward and stepped on the head of a corpse mutant to jump towards the wall, stepping on the first kunai and turned to lean over and jumped into the corpse mutant group. The distance close to the ground caused the corpse morphs carrying the scythe to follow their instinctive attacks, and even got too close to slash the scythe into the bodies of the connected corpse morphs.
Suddenly a terrible wail filled the entire corridor.
Su Qidong uncovered the black leather belt tied to his legs, and three reagent tubes containing light blue liquid fell into the palm of his hand, he sideways dodged the monster on the right side that directly opened its degenerated mouth to reveal its tentacles, and with the other hand, he changed the direction of the dive and slid out of the attack range of the group of terrifying monsters from the deformed leg of a corpse morph.
He stood up and rushed to the wall. Glancing back at the corpse morph that had almost slashed the back of his head with a scythe, he jumped all the way to the highest point of the wall by stepping on the kunai. He threw the three tubes of blue reagent in his hand towards the place where the corpse variant was the most numerous, without hesitation. Su Qidong relied on the infinite suffering brought about by the enhancement of the "Infinite Forbearance Flow", nailed the weapon in his hand to the wall with one hand, and his flexible body flipped his foot and stepped on the wall and kicked hard, using inertia to hook the entrance of the ventilation pipe with his foot, and let go and climbed upside down into a relatively safe area.
Mo Li and Su Qidong both spent a few hundred points to exchange for disposable items to make up for the lack of their own enhancement before leaving, and the liquid bomb Su Qidong exchanged for a total of 5 tubes with 30 points, three of which were tied to his legs, and two were tied to his arms. As long as that beautiful blue liquid comes into contact with enough oxygen, a strong explosion will occur, and the explosion range is small, and the explosion intensity is large, which is very suitable for close combat use.
Now, the three-barreled liquid bomb, enough to blow up an apartment, rolled down at the feet of the corpse morph, crushed by a group of unintentional monsters.
As soon as Su Qidong climbed up the ventilation pipe, he kicked the corpse behind him at some point to the entrance, and Pan also saw him throw something strange down just now, so he naturally followed the pipe away from the entrance.
"Boom-" The earth-shattering explosion almost shattered his eardrums, and a powerful aftermath of the explosion would smash the backs of the two people protected by the pipeline and slam them on the pipe, fortunately, the metal was tough enough and not too deformed by the explosion, otherwise the two would have been killed by the oolong they had made out as soon as they escaped from the pursuit of the corpse mutant.
Su Qidong, who had seriously miscalculated the power of the explosion, felt a burning pain in his back, and the corpse that he kicked into the mouth of the ventilation pipe was scorched black, and the pipe turned into charcoal ash and fell down after a slight vibration. More than thirty corpse variants brought Su Qidong more than 150 points in income, and it was only to recover the cost of these tubes of liquid bombs.
[So far, I haven't encountered a special corpse variant of the boss level, where are they hiding?] 】
"Hey, Su Qidong, what are you going to do next?" Pan, who was also shocked by the aftermath of the explosion, interrupted Su Qidong's thoughts. The young man's pale face looked even more gloomy in the darkness, his lips were thin, and there was a sinister taste when he laughed, even though he had no murderous intent.
is not used to the proximity of teenagers, and it is difficult for Su Qidong to trust this pan, who is full of disobedience all over his body. Stepping back without a trace, Su Qidong leaned on the pipe to rest with her pupil technique, her tense body seemed to attack at any time, "If Mo Li is still alive, she will take the initiative to contact us." ”
"Ah, that Demon Fox Captain." Pan's tone is very strange, and it seems to be inherently sarcastic. "Are you just waiting for her to command, aren't you ready to use your brain?"
Su Qidong's expressionless face finally showed an expression of annoyance and helplessness, his memory should not be so bad that such a person with personality can't remember, this is indeed the first time they have met. But Pan is very hostile, and only against himself.
He looked at Pan carefully from top to bottom, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Did we know each other before?" ”
"I don't know." Pan replied without even thinking about it, his tone still tinged with mockery.
"Yes." Su Qidong stopped talking. Closing his eyes to regain his strength, he didn't want to use up Chakra too early, after all, there were still more than 6 hours to pass, and it was even possible that he would not be able to reconcile with Moli until he returned to the "God Space".
"Do you look at me unpleasantly?"
Pan raised his eyebrows, as if he was very unsure that the sentence just now was asked by Su Qidong, who cherished words like gold, but Su Qidong did not ask a second time. It's as if there is no such person around.
After a long time, the looming howl of the corpse mutant echoed in the pipe, and the brown-haired young man said in a voice. "You've got a bad face."
"......" The corners of Su Qidong's mouth twitched fiercely, and when he opened his eyes the next moment, the blood-red three-hook jade was not looking at Pan, but the pipe leading to the distance in the dark. A slight tremor could be felt with your hand against the wall, something crawling on the pipe.
saw the change in Su Qidong's face. Pan is not an idiot who doesn't know the severity, and he also clenches the weapon in his hand. The two men glanced at each other. Silently reached an agreement not to make trouble with each other for the time being, groping the pipe and crawling forward with bated breath.
In addition to the dust accumulated over the years, some viscous liquids can also be seen everywhere with an unpleasant smell. The zombie variants also like to crawl inside the ventilation pipes and drag survivors into the pipes to suck their blood to replenish their energy, which is a common setting in the game for the corpse variants, but the pipes are generally slightly safer than the ground, at least there are no hordes of monsters waiting for them around the corner.
Groping around the corner of the pipe, one can hear strange sounds that aren't human, but they aren't the wails peculiar to corpse variants. Su Qidong poked his head out quietly, and with a little light from the iron mesh of the ventilation pipe, he could see a black batfish-like monster with a length of one meter lying on a human corpse covered in blood, as if sucking human brains.
Parasitic bats...... Su Qidong bit his tongue to prevent his unconscious exclamation from leaking out. Parasitic bats are a very special kind of monster in "dead space", or "the source of infection". The Ishimura was occupied by the corpse mutant because someone escaped in a spaceship and accidentally brought in the parasitic bat, and when it was caught, it injected RPHS prototype into the brain, and it would turn into a corpse mutant 100%.
That's how a boatload of monsters came about. What's even more terrifying is that, according to the game's visual observations, this monster will even split itself, and now it is unknown how many parasitic bats are on the Ishimura, but as long as there is one, the hope of survival is slim to negligible.
And now, a parasitic bat is parasitic on those whole corpses in front of itself, and it won't be long before this corpse becomes a completely new corpse variant.
The parasitic bat wriggled its tentacles beneath it, clinging to the wall and away from the corpse. The corpse suddenly erupted, two bone spurs protruding from its back, the corpse's head and jaw degraded and several tentacles protruded, and a terrible wail echoed through the narrow space.
A new corpse variant has been born!
