Chapter 349: Breaking Out of the Shell
Looking at the flashing figure, the team members immediately pasted on the walls on both sides of the teaching building, and everyone held their breath tacitly, listening to the sound of climbing on the wall of the teaching building outside, and everyone knew what was happening outside in their hearts.
Da Zhuang's voice immediately came from the communicator on the helmet, and he said in a somewhat worried tone: "Brothers, it's that kind of creeping mutant creature, everyone be careful!" ”
No one responded to Da Zhuang, because no one wanted to make a noise at the moment, and they all understood that there was no deviation from the previous inference, and sure enough, this seemingly normal FJ City No. 3 Experimental Middle School was indeed the lair of this creeping mutant creature.
At this time, the team members immediately began to worry, although the road back to the car outside the gate was only a few dozen meters away, but at this moment it has become the most dangerous road, because the slightest carelessness will expose themselves, and at present, only the IQ of the crawling mutant creature cannot be deduced from the footprints left on the road that a group of uninvited guests have broken into their lair.
The team members, who were quietly waiting for the sound of the figure outside to disappear, leaned against the wall like a group of children who had made a mistake.
The footsteps crept up to the roof, seemingly stopping at the edge of the top floor for a moment before disappearing, and the team speculated that the guy outside might have reached his lair.
Guo Lin was bold and was just about to walk towards the door of the teaching building, but he was shocked by the sudden roar from upstairs, and quickly retracted back to the wall he was leaning against before, squeezing his eyes and looking at Zhang Weimin opposite, as if asking what to do.
Zhang Weimin made a shushing gesture, signaling everyone to continue to be quiet, the air seemed to be condensed at this moment, and after being quiet for about a few seconds, there was a roar from several crawling mutant creatures upstairs, accompanied by the sound of what seemed to be a fight, listening to the sound of footsteps on the ground, the team members judged that there were quite a few.
Yin Chenbao pointed to the top of his head, as if to indicate that the number of mutated creatures above everyone was relatively large.
Although everyone has fought with these guys before, it is not difficult to deal with these reptilian mutant creatures, but if there are a large number of them, it is still enough for the team members to drink a pot, after all, the scene when the small office building in the warehouse in the northern region of N City was surrounded by this group of guys is still vivid, and everyone does not want to experience it again.
But the current situation is a dilemma for everyone, and the eggs of these guys appear in several classrooms on the first floor of the team members, which means that this guy is willing to come down from above at any time.
Just thinking about it, Da Zhuang, who was hiding in the school bus outside, suddenly shouted into the communicator: "Brothers, a few guys have come down from the roof, and a few of them have returned to school just now, there are about ten of them I have seen so far, and some have not been seen, you should be careful!" ”
After listening to Da Zhuang's report, Zhang Weimin, who was leaning against the wall, immediately leaned against the wall and slowly moved to the corridor on the first floor, and looked around, the distance from the left and right to the end of this corridor was basically the same, and there were about 3 or 4 classrooms in the middle, and behind the wall he was clinging to was the corridor, of course, he was not sure if this was the only corridor in this teaching building, but according to experience, it was impossible for the school building to only have one staircase, so he carefully moved to the edge of the wall, Poked his head over and looked at the staircase behind him, and sure enough, as he hoped, there were two stairs leading to the upstairs and downstairs on the edge of the corridor, and he and his teammates were currently on the first floor, so it meant that this teaching building had a basement, so he quietly turned on the light on his helmet and shone it into the corridor.
Zhang Weimin carefully illuminated the not very dim corridor, the staircase, the wall, and the ceiling, after all, he and even these creeping mutant creatures were likely to be attached to any wall, so after confirming that there was no danger, he beckoned the team members behind him to follow him towards the negative floor.
Everyone walked in an orderly manner, without making a sound, and walked into the corridor together behind Zhang Weimin.
Standing in front of the corridor, Zhang Weimin did not hesitate at all, and walked directly towards the stairs leading to the negative floor, but he deliberately slowed down all these movements, because he knew that although the eyesight of these crawling mutant creatures in the building was not good, their sense of hearing was indeed very sensitive, and once there was a sound, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.
The team members are also very careful behind the captain, a line of 6 people orderly mutual protection from the negative first floor, for the school teaching building has a negative floor, everyone to do not think anything strange, after all, the general school will have, wartime can be used as an emergency shelter, of course, it is now a peaceful era, most schools have already used the basement as a warehouse.
FJ No. 3 Experimental Middle School is the same as most schools, the negative floor has long been converted into a storage room for school equipment, and a large lock is hung on the storage room, which officially blocks the way for the team members to the negative floor.
Several people stood in place against the door, Yin Chenbao looked at the lock on the door and said, "Team Zhang, we have no way out!" ”
Listening to the sound of mutant creatures coming downstairs from upstairs, Zhang Weimin was also a little stunned at the moment, the door in front of him was locked, which meant that there was no way out at all, what was behind this negative floor, whether it could lead to a safe place, everyone was unclear, and at this time, Da Zhuang, who could unlock the lock, was left in the school bus and waited.
"Let's hide in this hallway for a while!" Guo Lin pointed to the dark basement floor corridor and said.
Looking at the current situation, everyone can only do this, thinking that the crawling mutant creatures coming down from the upper floor pass by and can only find another opportunity to send them out.
A few creeping mutants crawling down the outer wall slipped through the windows of the open classrooms on the second floor, slowly grabbing around the eggs piled up in the middle of the classroom a few times before gurgling in their throats.
Looking at the slightly shrunken eggs, these reptiles seemed to be in a very good mood, sticking out their tongues on the surface of the eggshells and licking them, and biting their ears from time to time with other reptilian mutant creatures around them, not knowing what they were talking about.
After paying attention to the eggs in the classroom for a while, the guilds slowly retreated and ran towards another classroom.
The members of the Doomsday Operation team hiding at the door of the basement could already hear the creeping mutant creatures making a very uncomfortable 'rustling' sound on the stone slabs on the ground that had not been built for a long time.
The team members had no way to retreat at this point, and if this was the reptilian mutant creature in the school, then the team members would not even have a place to escape.
Time passed, and the team members wearing heavy winter parkas were all soaked in their clothes at this time, not because of how hot the school was, but because the team members were very nervous at this time, after all, it was not clear how many such reptilian mutant creatures were in the entire school building and even the entire school, and it was difficult to say whether they could get out alive once the firefighting began.
Guo Lin poked his head into the corridor on the first floor and whispered to Zhang Weimin behind him while looking at it: "Team Zhang, let's find a chance to rush out, isn't it equivalent to waiting for death here, those guys above will come down in a while, and we won't be able to run away here!" ”
"Isn't going out now the same as taking the initiative to expose yourself, the door behind you is locked, the rear is safe, we just need to quietly guard our front!" Zhang Weimin immediately dismissed Guo Lin's idea.
Then Zhang Weimin said into the communicator: "Da Zhuang, what's the situation outside now?" ”
"Brother Zhang, it's still safe outside, but I can see those monsters going back and forth in those windows of the teaching building, where are you now, do you want me to make a noise to attract the targets of these guys, and then take the opportunity for you to run back together?" Da Zhuang put forward his own idea.
"Don't act rashly for the time being, Da Zhuang, you hide in the car first!" Zhang Weimin said seriously.
At this time, it seems that the loud rustle of nails rubbing against the ground has begun to be heard overhead, and it is obvious that those crawling mutant creatures have descended from the stairs to the first floor, and the corridors of the basement where the Doomsday Action team is hiding are only about ten meters away, and the team members can already hear the slight low sound in the throat of the reptilian mutant creatures.
Everyone immediately became nervous again, pursed their mouths, and even breathed much lighter, and listened to the movement above their heads, and everyone could clearly hear that there were crawling mutant creatures entering the classroom they had just explored, and there was more than one.
The classroom showed the footsteps of creeping mutants circling around the eggs, accompanied by the 'gurgling' sound in the throats of the creatures, which immediately disappeared.
It was quiet for about a minute, and suddenly there was a 'click' sound in the classroom above, and the members of the Doomsday Operation team immediately guessed the source of the sound, which was emitted by the huge pine flower egg.
At this time, in the classroom that had just been explored, two adult reptilian mutant creatures were lying next to the 'big pine flower eggs' in the middle, and with the sound of the eggshell cracking, several juvenile reptile mutant creatures broke out of the shell of the 'big pine flower eggs', except that their skin color was pink and their bodies were much smaller, and their appearance was no different from that of adult reptile mutant creatures.
Seeing his child break out of the shell, the two reptilian mutant creatures next to him immediately became excited, and immediately got up and approached the side of the few reptilian mutant creatures that had just broken out of the shell, stretched out their tongues and began to lick the newborn with unknown liquid on their bodies.
If it weren't for the fact that these were deformed species after the outbreak of the X-virus, everyone would not feel disgusted, and would only treat him as an ordinary oviparous animal, but these mutated creatures are not as cute and docile as those animals.
The team members hiding in the corridor on the negative floor can already hear all the sounds of the children of the crawling mutant creatures breaking out of their shells from the sounds, and a disgusting picture immediately appeared in their minds, compared to these disgusting pictures, what worries the team members more is the ability of the mutant creature that can already start to reproduce, and it seems that the speed of reproduction is still very fast, if it continues, the difficulties caused by the X virus will become greater and greater.
Yin Chenbao cautiously walked to Zhang Weimin's side and whispered: "Team Zhang, this newborn has come out, it seems that it will be difficult for us to get out of here, if these guys find out, we must not send us to feed their children!" ”
Zhang Weimin knew that this was Yin Chenbao teasing, but at this time he didn't have the heart to pay attention to Yin Chenbao at all, since he came down and found that he couldn't enter the basement, he was constantly thinking about how to get out of here.
At present, the most important thing is that Zhang Weimin still doesn't know how many reptilian mutant creatures there are in this school, and it is indeed a good way to make some noise to attract the attention of these guys, but considering that Da Zhuang is only one person outside, and his shoulder injury is not completely recovered, once surrounded by a large number of reptilian mutant creatures, the consequences will be unimaginable.
But in this dilemma of the basement building, it is not a way to stay like this, after all, time is passing by minute by minute, if before the sun sets, I can't take the team back to the safety area of the oil factory, it will be very dangerous to stay in this FJ city.
Thinking of this, Zhang Weimin couldn't help but clench the submachine gun in his hand, and when he heard the slight sound made by the captain holding the gun, everyone immediately became nervous, waiting for Zhang Weimin to give the order to rush out.
Suddenly, a hand pressed Zhang Weimin's shoulder, Zhang Weimin looked back and saw that it was Zhang Xiaolei, he didn't know when he had walked behind Zhang Weimin, and then said softly: "Team Zhang, don't be impulsive!" ”
Zhang Weimin looked at Zhang Xiaolei who held himself down and said: "You can't always stay here like this, Xiaolei, you are responsible for taking everyone, I will go out first to think of luring these guys away, and then you will immediately run towards the car outside the gate, I will get rid of them and come to meet you!" ”
Who knew that after Zhang Weimin said this, Zhang Xiaolei's hand pressed his shoulder with greater strength, and then Zhang Xiaolei said with a serious face: "No, let's wait for a while, wait for the monster above to go upstairs, and then let Da Zhuang observe, if there are not many of them, let's return to the car together in one go!" ”
Hearing Zhang Xiaolei say this, everyone felt that it made sense, so they each retreated back and continued to wait quietly for the movement above to disappear.
At this time, Guo Lin's double-knife handle inserted behind his back suddenly accidentally hit the metal railing on the handrail on the side of the stairs, making a crisp collision sound, in this dead and silent teaching building, this sudden sound, as if it had exploded, and then I heard the roar of the crawling mutant creature overhead, followed by the sound of the creeping mutant creature's claws scurrying and rubbing on the ground.
The team members hiding in the basement corridor were stupid at this time......
