Chapter 21: The Crisis Erupts
Zeng Jia, who rushed out of the door, immediately raised his gun and aimed at his left and right sides, preparing to deal with the zombies that might pounce on him at the first time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
But to his surprise, there was silence outside the door of the control room, and the batches of zombies before were now not even seen.
"What's going on? What about so many zombies before? Zeng Jia looked at the radar screen in surprise.
Under the level 2 radar mastery skill enhancement, almost the entire water treatment plant is within his radar detection range, and if there are zombies, they will be displayed on the radar screen immediately. But now his radar screen is clean, not even a red dot.
What happened? Was it cleaned up by other players who found it?
But it's not possible, if other players really found out about it, why didn't they just clean up the zombies and not continue inside?
Zeng was full of questions, but he still kept his guard and walked towards the other end of the factory. It wasn't until he returned to the doorway of the passage where he had entered, that he hadn't found a single zombie.
And he didn't hear the gunfire coming from outside. Knowing that he had walked through the dark passageway and went out through the door, he did not hear any more gunshots.
"It's so quiet, it's a little weird...... Is the battle over? ”
Standing in the huge water supply pipe at the end of the river, Zeng Jia looked out at the ruins of the city in the distance.
The ruins of the city were as silent as death, and although a few wisps of smoke were still rising in the sky, there was no artillery fire or gunfire to be heard. Before Zeng Jia entered the colonial satellite, hundreds of players from the two camps fought to the death and the artillery fire shook the world.
What about so many players? Could it be that he is all dead?
No, it is absolutely impossible.
Could it be someone else's task, in fact, just to win this battle, and then you can take the reward and leave this novice village?
Although the process of the mission was not quite the same as he had guessed before, it was the most likely. The battle is over, the battlefield is closed, all the players are gone, and even the zombie mobs are taken back by the system.
If that's the case, could it be that you're the only one left in the colony's satellite? Did you not leave the battlefield because you didn't receive a battlefield mission?
If that's the case, then Nina is still here? If even she leaves, who else will she find to study mechanical engineering? Who to ask for help with the repair of the spaceship? Could it be that I skipped the previous task steps, which caused the BUG and made my character stuck here?
No way!
Zenga immediately trotted along the river towards the ruins of the city.
He kept an eye on the radar screen all the way, but when he got to the dead woods on the outskirts, he didn't see a red dot for an enemy or a green dot for a friendly army, and he didn't hear any more gunshots or anything else.
It was as if he was running in a world where he was alone, and there was no living thing in the whole world except him.
And when he ran to the vicinity of the dead woods, he saw a terrifying scene.
The woods, which had not been touched by the war before, were now clearly experiencing a great war. The woods were filled with smoke, a large number of trees were broken off and fell to the ground, the cracked ground was blasted out of one pit after another by artillery fire, and countless corpses were scattered around the woods.
Corpse?
Zeng Jia suddenly felt that something was not quite right. Are those the corpses of the players? If so, it's too much, right? And it's so dense that it's like it's piled up together. This kind of scene is almost like the corpses of zombies that were slaughtered in batches by the boss's Vulcan cannon in the energy room!
Could it be ...... Zeng Jia suddenly had a thought in his heart, and hurriedly leaned over there.
There was still not a single red dot on the radar screen, and it was clear that there were no enemies here. Zeng Jia ran to the woods to take a look, and sure enough, most of the corpses on the ground were zombies with mutilated limbs and bodies that had begun to decay to varying degrees. There are more than a dozen corpses wearing mobile armor that look like dead players! Judging from the color and style of the armor worn by those corpses, both the Earth Federation and the DC Army have them.
What's really going on here?
Earlier, when he was trapped on that high platform by the Lost Horde at the water treatment plant, he had indeed seen some zombies walk out of the entrance. Could it be that all the zombies wandering in the water treatment plant disappeared, not because they were taken back by the system after the battle, but because after they left the factory, all the zombies ran out of that passage?
And then the players of both camps who are fighting against each other are attacked by zombie groups?
There were too many questions, so Zeng Jia was completely confused.
It seems that the only way to do this is to go to the ruins of the city and find out.
But now the situation has become impossible to grasp, and it is completely impossible to predict what kind of danger will be encountered in the ruins.
What to do? Go straight to the ruins, or ......
Just when Zeng Jia was a little undecided, he suddenly heard a movement from the woods behind him.
Zeng Jia immediately raised his machine gun and aimed it in the direction from which the sound came.
In the woods in the distance, something moved in the piles of corpses underground. Then he saw a man in white motorized armor slowly standing up from the pile of corpses.
Is it a player? But why doesn't the player's name appear above his head, and why isn't there any on the radar? But judging from the color of the mobile armor on his body, it should be from the DC side.
At this time, it can also be said that it is a kind of luck to meet a player in the same camp. Zeng Jia hurriedly wanted to go up and say hello, and then ask what was going on here.
But just as he leaned towards the man, suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he saw a flash of red light on the radar screen. He hurriedly looked over, only to see that a red dot suddenly appeared on the radar screen where nothing was displayed before, and judging from the position, it was the guy who had just stood up!
"Could it be that he's from the Earth Federation?"
At this time, the man had slowly raised his arm and aimed the machine gun in his hand at Zeng Jia.
As soon as Zeng Jia saw the other party raise his gun, he immediately flashed to the side.
Bang! Bang!
Two gunshots broke the dead silence, and the bullets flew almost past Zengjia's armor.
This was followed by Zeng Jia's return fire. A series of gunshots rang out, hitting the guy in white mobile armor, and the sparks flew in all directions, and the red letters of -25, -26, and -27 floated up in a row.
However, what was also puzzled was that in the face of his fierce counterattack, this guy who was sparking electric sparks all over his body did not dodge at all, but staggered towards him in the face of the bullets. As you walk, you continue to shoot.
The man's posture was also quite strange, he shot with a gun in one hand, and with each shot he swayed, and the shot was inaccurate. His head was tilted to one side as if his neck had been broken, but his chest was erected forward, and he staggered as if he were going to fall at any moment.
"What's going on with this guy?" Zeng Jia was even more puzzled in his heart, but his subordinates showed no mercy. He aimed at the opponent's head in a three-shot burst, two of which hit the head directly, and suddenly two red letters of -52 and -54 floated up.
This guy in white mobile armor was obviously injured a lot before, and the armor was seriously damaged. After receiving another round of firing from Zeng Jia, a burst of sparks suddenly erupted from all over his body, and the entire mobile armor burst open, and the operator inside immediately fell to the ground.
This guy is weak. Zeng Jia was unscathed, and it only took a dozen bullets to knock him down. But at this time, a very ominous premonition surged in his heart.
Because he suddenly remembered that in the water treatment factory, when he escaped from the zombies in a thrilling way, he suddenly found that he had been seriously injured unconsciously. And then he saw the record in the battle log - Virus Saliva: Saliva saturated with viruses that can seep through the cracks in the armor, infecting and damaging pilots. When a pilot dies due to an infection, he or she will be transformed into a zombie.
At this moment, with a low roar, the guy who had just been beaten burst and fell to the ground suddenly moved. He supported his body with his arms and slowly got up from the ground, his movements slow and stiff.
When he stood up, Zeng Jia could clearly see his pale face and empty eyes.
The ominous premonition of "sure enough......" has been fulfilled.
I'm afraid it's not because the battle between the Earth Federation and the DC Army is over that the ruins of the city have become dead silent. It's something else.
The DC player, who had already turned into a zombie, straightened his stiff arm and staggered towards Zenga.
This guy shouldn't be a gamer anymore, right? Estimated yes. When infected to death by the zombie's viral saliva, his game should be over. And the current one is just a computer-controlled, player's corpse turned into a zombie.
Zeng Jia raised the gun in his hand and aimed it at its head. Just as he was about to shoot, he suddenly flashed red light on the radar screen, and the red dots around him appeared one after another.
Zeng Jia's scalp exploded, he hurriedly looked around, and with a dull roar, the corpses of the players who had fallen to the ground suddenly moved.
After staggering to their feet, the players who had died of the virus turned their heads to look at Zeng Jia and raised their weapons at the same time.
