Chapter Twenty-Seven: Feeling Hopeless

Cao Yin fell to the ground immediately after being shot, the sharp pain in his chest spread to all parts of his body like a raging fire, and he felt that his surroundings were extremely quiet at this moment, so quiet that he could only hear the sound of his heart beating, and this voice was gradually becoming weaker, as if it would stop at any time.

"Let's get it over quickly, it's been a long morning." The man who fired the shot was a man in his mid-thirties, dressed in a dark green camouflage uniform, wearing a black peaked cap, his eyes were cold and exuding an awe-inspiring murderous aura, and he had a sniper rifle hanging from his back.

It is obvious that he is the sniper lurking in the administrative building to cover his comrades, and his appearance at this moment means that the two sides will have a final fight to the death.

The sniper glanced at Cao Yin, who fell to the ground, and after confirming that the other party was shot in the heart, a disdainful smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and then took out a grenade from his waist, and was about to pull it away, when he found that another person rushed out of the dark basement.

The person who rushed out of the basement was Li Mingxian, who held the Glock pistol given to him by Jiang Xian, and when he saw the sniper on the steps, he decisively raised his gun to aim and shoot.

The three-shot combo of "bang bang bang" was dodged by the sniper, and the bullet hit the railing of the staircase, and at this time the sniper had already ripped off the pull ring of the grenade and threw it towards Li Mingxian.

Li Mingxian saw the grenade flying, but he didn't panic, he stretched out his left hand towards the grenade in mid-air and caught it steadily.

The grenade stayed in Li Mingxian's hand for a few seconds, but it did not explode, it turned out to be another dud, but Li Mingxian was not surprised at all, he put the grenade in the pocket of his clothes.

"Huh...... It's amazing," said the sniper, pulling back from the steps and running down the hall, muttering to himself, "those unlucky things seem to have thrown two grenades on the playground too, but they didn't explode, how could they be all dumb bullets?" ”

Li Mingxian stepped on the steps and chased after him, the gun in his hand did not dare to slack off in the slightest, the dark muzzle remained in the center of the line of sight, and the sniper hid in the corner of the hall corridor at this time, taking out the last grenade from his waist.

"It's necessary to verify that this guy may have some kind of ability to turn off the bomb," the sniper quickly poked his head out to determine Li Mingxian's position, Li Mingxian saw the sniper show his head and fired without hesitation, but his marksmanship was mediocre, and he didn't hit the sniper, and the bullet only shattered the corner of the wall.

"It's coming up so quickly." The sniper smirked and ripped off the grenade's tab, and then slowly rolled the grenade from the ground to Li Mingxian like a bowling ball, he estimated the time, and the grenade would explode as soon as it rolled to Li Mingxian.

After Li Mingxian saw the grenade rolling over from the ground, he didn't immediately avoid it, but instead flew towards the grenade like he had done in the blood mist before, and his whole body pressed against the grenade.

The grenade did not explode either, and quietly pressed under Li Mingxian's body.

The sniper walked out from the other side of the corner at this time, pointed the gun in his hand at Li Mingxian's head, and said, "It's really unbelievable, what did you do to the grenade, why didn't the grenade you touched explode?" ”

Li Mingxian looked at the sniper, and his tone was indifferent: "Instead of paying attention to my methods, it is better to find a way to deal with the trouble outside." ”

The sniper glanced at the gate of the administrative building, there was a large zombie dog eating a fresh corpse outside, the ground was blurred with flesh and blood, in addition, many zombies were moving quickly towards the administrative building, and the low howl of the group of corpses was getting louder and louder.

In less than five minutes, the building would be surrounded by zombies outside, and a single glass door would not be able to stop their ferocious attack.

"Hey, do you think I'm going to worry about this stupid stuff?" The sniper didn't care, "I'm fully capable of escaping from the rooftop, the only people who have become zombie lunches are you guys, when you are dead, I will go to the playground to collect the airdrop supplies, you can't leave anything, including your own lives." ”

The sniper sneered and was about to pull the trigger on Li Mingxian, when Li Mingxian suddenly rolled on his side on the floor, and then threw the grenade in his arms at the sniper.

The sniper didn't take Li Mingxian seriously, but he didn't dare to slack off the grenade that flew in, he saw the right time, and slapped the grenade to the side with his hand, and the grenade was shot in front of the gate. The grenade exploded as soon as it landed, scattering fragments and steel balls in all directions with great lethality.

Both Li Mingxian and the sniper were affected by the blast of the grenade, but they were far away from the explosion point, and both of them lay backwards during the explosion, and even if they were hit by a few shrapnel, they only shot into the skin and did not threaten their lives.

The loud sound of the grenade explosion made the zombies outside even more frenzied, and they began to speed up their pace and rush towards the side of the administrative building, and the shuddering roar became higher and higher, and the overwhelming formation was like a ghost crying god.

Li Mingxian got up from the ground, glanced at the location of the sniper, and found that the sniper had already stood up, and the muzzle of the gun was already aimed at him.

"I've changed my mind, instead of killing you with one shot, let's let you experience the horror of being eaten alive by zombies." The sniper smiled grimly, then fired two shots at Li Mingxian's leg, and after assuring him that he would not stand up again, the sniper put away his pistol and turned around to leave.

Just as the sniper was about to take a step, he suddenly found that his eyes were covered in a blood-red color, and the smell of blood continued to penetrate his nose, choking him and coughing.

The sniper looked around in surprise and found himself surrounded by a thick blood-red fog, and immediately remembered that this was someone's ability, which he had used on the playground before.

"And the enemies that haven't been dealt with, I think there should be three ......" The sniper drew his pistol again and looked around vigilantly, "Hmph, but this kind of trick won't help me!" ”

"Yes," Red Butterfly appeared in the blood mist at this time, spread her two huge butterfly wings, and pinched a bullet in her hand, "You did it, and you shot this bullet into Cao Yin's chest, causing him to almost die." ”

"Bang!" Without saying a word, the sniper fired at the figure in front of him, and the bullet whizzed through the dark red figure without knocking him out.

"What a decisive killer, hehe......" With a hoarse laugh, the red butterfly's figure dissipated in place, and the bullet in its hand fell to the ground.

Since he couldn't see anything, the sniper didn't dare to stay where he was, so he ran through the blood mist with his memory, trying to get back to the stairwell as soon as possible, but before he could take two steps, a figure flashed in front of him, and then the figure threw a punch at the sniper, knocking him to the ground in an instant.

With this punch, the sniper suddenly lost his body balance, and when he felt himself fall heavily on the floor, the blood red in front of him suddenly turned into a deeper dark red, and at this time, he couldn't even distinguish the outlines of the surrounding objects, all of which were a thick and monotonous dark red, like something stuck to his eyes.

Red Butterfly is lying on the Sniper's back at this time, and covers his eyes with both hands, which is why the Sniper can't see anything, all he sees is the color of Red Butterfly's hands, which is the color of the "Shadow Blood".

The sniper could hear that the zombies outside had arrived at the platform outside the door, their footsteps messy and dense, and their mournful roars made people stand upside down. Due to the fall just now, he could not confirm the direction of his escape again, so he finally could not suppress the horror and despair in his heart, and began to kneel on the ground and cry for mercy.

The person who punched the sniper was Cao Yin, he was shot in the heart, if it was an ordinary person, he would have died, but Cao Yin's awakened ability "Shadow Blood" can allow him to continue to maintain normal blood circulation in the case of a serious heart injury, neither excessive blood loss nor hypoxic shock.

One of the qualities of Shadow Blood is that it allows the host to have a perfect and independent circulatory system, and even if there is external interference, it will supply normal blood to the cells and tissues throughout the body according to the previous circulatory memory.

So Cao Yin was able to stand beside the sniper who was wailing and begging for mercy, examining his ugliness with calm and deep black eyes, Cao Yin bent down, picked up the pistol dropped by the sniper, and said softly: "You are the one who experienced being eaten alive by zombies." ”

Cao Yin didn't pity this sniper at all, because he was the first to do it, and if he hadn't fired the first shot to break his companion Xiaochuan's leg, maybe he really couldn't be ruthless, whether it was against the enemy on the playground or the sniper who was begging for mercy from him now.

Cao Yin struck the sniper's leg twice, the sniper trembled and wailed, and now he no longer begged for mercy, but angrily scolded and took out the sniper rifle on his back and shot around.

Cao Yin was naturally able to dodge, but now there was no time to consume this sniper, the corpses outside were about to rush in, Cao Yin helped Li Mingxian nearby, helped him towards the stairwell, and after closing the door of the stairwell, he also used a pistol to pass through the doorknob, so that the zombie group temporarily rushed the door of the stairwell open.

"You're not dead?" Li Mingxian tilted his head and looked at Cao Yin and said, "How did you do it, did you wear body armor?" ”

Cao Yin smiled bitterly: "Hehe, where did you get any body armor, my heart was shot open." ”

"If you open a hole, you won't die, and you won't bleed!" Li Mingxian touched Cao Yin's chest, his clothes were not soaked with blood at all, "Cao Yin, you...... Forget it, let's go back and talk about it, what about the sniper? ”

"I injured his leg so that he couldn't escape," Cao Yin said, "If I hadn't arrived in time, you would probably be the one who was eaten alive by the zombies now." ”

Li Mingxian swallowed his saliva, indeed, because now that his legs were also shot, if Cao Yin was really killed at that time, he would definitely not be able to escape the siege of that group of zombies alone, and he felt scared when he thought about it.

At this time, there was a heart-rending scream from the hall, it was the sniper's, it is estimated that he has been surrounded by zombies now, and it is estimated that he will be gnawed by the corpses in a later period so that he can't even recognize his biological mother.

"Let's take Brother Xian to the rooftop," Li Mingxian said, "This group of zombies will definitely block the first floor when they smell the bloody smell here, and they won't leave for a while, but Brother Xian and I need treatment, I don't know if your gunshot wound matters." ”

"It's better to go back and bandage it and reduce inflammation," Cao Yin said, the warhead has been taken out by the red butterfly, and the blood circulation of the heart and blood vessels around the body will not be destroyed under the maintenance of the blood of the shadow, so just wait until the wound of the heart repairs itself.

"By the way, why go to the rooftop?" Cao Yin asked again, "Maybe we can climb out from the second floor, this building shouldn't be surrounded by zombies on all sides." ”

"No, Brother Xian and I are bleeding, with our current physical strength, the zombies will soon catch up with us with the bloody qi, and then it will be miserable," Li Mingxian said, "I just heard the sniper say that he has prepared a way to escape upstairs, and we can go up and try our luck." ”

Cao Yin took Jiang Xian and Li Mingxian to the twelfth floor of the highest floor, but because Li Mingxian and Jiang Xian were injured in their legs, it was quite difficult to get up, and Cao Yin himself had symptoms of dizziness and lightheadedness, so the process of climbing to the 12th floor made them feel worse than death.
