Chapter 46: Midnight Marathon
Just as Link jumped over the window, the heavy wooden door slammed to the ground. He looked back and saw dozens of huge mutant spiders scrambling in from behind the door, their chelicerae more than a meter long slashing across the wall, making a terrifying sound.
As soon as Link's feet stepped on the dirt below, in the building behind him, mutated spiders of all sizes climbed up to the glass window lattice, falling from the second floor like raindrops.
"Run, run!"
In the dull sound of the spider landing on the ground, Sim Moxue shouted hoarsely.
Without being reminded by Si Moxue, Link had already liberated his genes, took out the fastest speed in his life, and ran wildly.
The scientific research office building is in a T-shape, and they just jumped down from the middle of the horizontal area, and in front of them is a small green space, which should have been planted with lawns and flowers a few years ago, but now only reddish-brown cracked dry soil remains.
Fortunately, although the spiders that hit the door behind them were larger, they were not very agile, did not move fast, and huddled together before jumping out of the window, so that Si Moxue and the others also gained precious time to escape.
The distance between the few and the mutant spider is getting farther and farther, and then they can run out of the spider's sight by bypassing the bend in front of them.
"Y-Did you hear footsteps?" Link is panting like a cow - he is not mixed with animal genes that are good at running, and his own genetic fusion is not high, this long period of explosive running almost killed him.
"I heard, something is coming from the front corner." Although Si Moxue's gasping was not as strong as Link's, she also felt her throat dry, and every breath carried an astringent pain.
“…… Ahh
A figure bypassed the vertical of the "T" shaped scientific research office building, and with a long circle of yellow smoke rising from behind, it swished past between Sim Xue and Opus, feeding Link behind him a large mouthful of sand.
Link: "Bah, Bah, Bah......"
In the unfinished yellow smoke, four or five genetically liberated figures came out, all of them running wildly regardless of it. Immediately after that, the scientific research office building was detoured again......
A swarm of mutant spiders!!
The number of spiders chasing after Si Moxue and them is compared to this group of spiders, is it just a small thing, okay?!
The three people who were running with their heads down stopped together.
"What the hell—"
Frightened, Link burst out in a foul mouth.
Before he could finish speaking, his eyes flickered, and Opus carried Newton and Yuichi Nagura past him, and the sand he had brought up as he ran poured into his unclosed mouth.
Then there was Si Moxue, when she ran past Link, she even took the time to pat him on the head: "Run!" The sound drifted in the wind.
Link hurried to follow.
In this way, the three of them just ran in different directions, and the formation did not change, but from the original trio fighting alone, to the bottom of the fleeing army, the number of mutant spiders chasing behind them has increased several times...... That's it......
The pursuit and escape rely on their own physical fitness, and the gap between people of different genetic hybrids is also shown in this way when you chase me-
The first ones are always the hybrids who are good at running and have a high degree of gene fusion, followed by the hybrids who are good at running but the gene fusion is not too high, and the last ones are often the hybrids with inappropriate mixed genes and the gene fusion is not high.
Most of the trainee hunters in the team fall into this category.
Mutant spiders are fast in pursuit, but in order to escape, hybrids are even faster.
However, it wasn't much faster, and no matter how everyone ran, the army of mutant spiders always followed behind. In the end, the crowd was running almost against the wall of the building.
After running around the abandoned factory for a few laps, Sim Xue and Opus had caught up with the large army, and were now probably in the middle of the fleeing army.
Liang Wenruo was the figure who took the lead at the beginning, but now the breath he was holding back when he fled for his life was released, and he slowly fell into the middle of the team.
"I can't stand it......" Liang Wenruo gasped, he had already tasted the fishy sweet taste in his throat - he was already tired to this point, those who were not as good as his apprentices and junior hunters had already run crookedly, all supported by perseverance.
When bypassing a factory building made of steel plates on the east side of the factory for the tenth time, Si Moxue gasped and said: "See, the door of the delivery room is open, let's go in." ”
Then she didn't care whether Liang Wennuo heard it or not, glanced back at the spider swarm following behind her, and went straight away from the large army and rushed into the factory.
It was getting late, and the smell of chemicals was in the factory. Si Moxue took advantage of the cover of the large army and really hid in the factory without being discovered by the mutant spiders.
Liang Wenruo: "??? ”
Then he saw Optus, who was a little ahead of him, carrying two people, and also following Si Moxue's movements and rushing into the factory.
“……”
Liang Wenruo had the heart to follow, but he had already followed the large army through the factory. He pounded his chest in his heart, and when he passed the factory for the eleventh time, he took advantage of the opportunity and finally rushed into the factory with all his might, followed by two hybrids who had also witnessed the movements of Sim Moxue and Opus.
In this way, every time they ran a lap, one or two hybrids took the opportunity to hide in the factory.
Since Si Tan embarked on the escape path chased by mutant spiders, with his antelope genes and excellent physical fitness, he has either ranked first or second on the way to escape.
It's the same this time.
It was already completely dark, and the night wind around it was getting cold. Si Tan felt the cold wind blowing through his exposed skin as he ran, and the hot sweat from the strenuous exercise had just been blown cold, and was covered with a new round of hot sweat.
The clatter of mutant spiders' legs and feet behind him was still there, and he believed that he was running at the front of the line, guiding the few people behind him.
Until he stumbled upon a glance behind him while turning a corner—
Rub, what about people?
What about the team members who are guided by him?
There were only dozens or hundreds of huge mutant spiders behind him, and their long chelicerae moved quickly, bringing up a cloud of yellow smoke.
Si Tan only felt a breath in his throat, and he was frightened and afraid: his team members wouldn't all be bitten to death by spiders, couldn't they, he didn't hear the screams?
He turned the corner again.
As soon as he bypassed a factory, Si Tan saw Liang Wenruo open a crack door from the factory and beckoned to him.
Si Tank's feet accelerated again, and on the basis of the original, he distanced himself from the mutant spider again, and rushed towards the factory.
Liang Wenruo also opened the door at the right time and quickly closed the door after the tank rushed in.
Tank gasped and fell to his knees, looking up to see that he was surrounded by his "eaten" teammates.
…… Dare you all hide, I'm the only one running stupidly, right?!
