Chapter 428 Accidents and Surprises
The perception spread to the enemy, and a group of people shuttled through the building complex for half a day without encountering a single zombie. If it weren't for the hoarse screams that rang out from time to time nearby, they would have thought they were in a corpse-free zone.
After walking nearly three kilometers, Qiu Yu was afraid that these people would have problems because they were too lax, so he deliberately led them to a place where two zombies were lying on their stomachs to refresh themselves. But the zombies hadn't entered the field of vision yet, but an electric car that had pulled a lot of things first entered the field of vision of Qiu Yu's perception spread.
After the electric car flashed by, what followed into Qiu Yu's perception range was a large group of zombies trailing behind the electric car. The two zombies on the ground that were ready to be used to refresh themselves also got up as fast as they could after hearing the cries of other zombies, and merged into the tide of corpses chasing electric vehicles.
Qiu Yu's current location is the left alley of a building on the side of the road, and the electric car and the corpse pass by the alley behind the building at a right angle of 90 degrees. If the electric car just drove away in a straight line, or turned right, there would be a group of zombies in a building in the middle, and naturally few people would be found.
But the electric car chose to turn left......
The few people who followed behind saw Qiu Yu stop suddenly, and at first, they only thought that Qiu Yu had found a zombie like before, and let them wait before leaving. But within a few seconds, the roar of a large number of zombies was heard. After a few more seconds, the zombie's voice became clearer and clearer, as if it was coming from behind him.
Several people turned their necks, which were as heavy as a thousand pounds, and glanced back, and they were collectively frightened. No, the voice of the zombie came from the alleyway behind him.
Wu Feng pushed desperately, trying to hide on the other side of the corner. But as soon as he squeezed out half of his body and looked at it, he was so frightened that he retreated back and desperately stuck into the pile.
"There's one over there." In order to prevent other uninformed people from pushing himself, Wu Feng squeezed out four words from between his teeth.
The current situation is that a long dragon of zombies has blocked the exits in both directions. The only thing to be thankful for is that they are all poked their heads forward because they are attracted to them.
The few people around the corner, no matter which laneway mouth they were more than ten meters away, just exceeded the range of smell of zombies. As long as you don't make a sound, and the zombies don't look into the alleyway, then as long as you stay through until the corpses pass, it's safe.
But if you really want to achieve this result, your own psychological quality, the psychological quality of your peers, and luck are all indispensable. And most people here, let alone believe in others, not even themselves, let alone luck. In fact, if you are lucky, you will not be made dumplings by zombies at all.
Five seconds passed. There were no zombies looking into the alleyway.
Ten seconds passed. Although several people became more and more nervous, they saw hope.
Twenty seconds passed. The endless dragon of zombies begins to eat away at the newborn hope.
Thirty seconds passed, and although they were still not found by the zombies, Ivan and Wu Feng were on the verge of collapse. The former's teeth chattered and he looked dazed, while the latter looked around and wanted to climb upstairs.
The smooth cement walls on both sides, not to mention Wu Feng, even Qiu Yu didn't have the confidence to climb up. But under the pressure of great panic, Wu Feng of course couldn't think normally, and the more he looked, the more he felt that he could climb up.
Just before he tried his might, Qiu Yu grabbed him by the collar. As he dragged him down the alleyway behind the building, he gestured to the others.
Around the corner is the farthest away from the zombies on both sides. But the odds of being spotted are doubled. Staying on the side, although it is closer to the zombie on one side, it is still outside its sense of smell, which can be said to reduce the probability of being found without increasing the risk.
The reason why Qiu Yu didn't let them leave the corner in the first place was to find something for them to do at this time to distract their energy, and to cover the big one with a small desperate situation, thus creating a hope born from the contrast.
But things are all relative. Although the chance of being spotted was higher before, Qiu Yu could use the perceptual spread to determine whether there were any zombies about to look into the alley, and then dodge to the other side before the zombies finished turning their heads. With Qiu Yu's current strength and precise control of power, it is not impossible to bring two or three people with him when he is dodging.
But because we can't explain out loud, and we have to prevent someone from doing stupid things, we can only create the current situation of completely giving up and evading, and it all depends on luck.
After more than ten seconds, the density of zombies finally decreased, and they no longer moved forward side by side. Maybe wait a little longer, and they'll all be gone. Although this crisis has been experienced, because most of the zombies have been lured away, the road ahead will be much easier.
When an elderly zombie who looked to be more than ninety years old before his death passed by the alleyway with trembling, even Qiu Yu felt that this crisis had been successfully passed. But......
Smack-
The elderly zombie fell flat and fell to the mouth of the alleyway. The cloudy eyes were staring straight at Qiu Yu, whose facial muscles were twitching.
"Roarβ"
"Let's go."
The zombie and Qiu Yu spoke at the same time. As he passed by the elderly zombie, Qiu Yu kicked it in the throat. But the zombies in front had already heard the roar and turned around a few people.
"Throw away the big ones and follow me."
There really aren't many zombies around right now. But if this roar continues, it won't be long before thousands of zombies are recruited.
Hearing Qiu Yu say this, Lao Luo and a few aborigines immediately threw away all the large items. The two fourth-tier players were a little reluctant. In their opinion, the things in their hands are not only the entry fee to enter the N75 building, but also the necessary items to build good relations with other high-level players.
They are reluctant to lose it, and Qiu Yu is not forced. Perception spreads to the maximum, and after getting a general understanding of the nearby terrain, he runs at a speed that others can barely keep up with.
From time to time, a few zombies jumped out to block the road. This is a straggler who is attracted by the screams of the corpses chasing the electric car, and can't find the target after running for a while.
If there were only Qiu Yu, he could leave them alone, but since there were people behind him, Qiu Yu could only take the initiative to catch up, and then cut off all of them.
Rex and Wu Feng were even more reluctant to drop what they were holding when they saw that Qiu Yu was so powerful and their safety was guaranteed. And because Qiu Yu had to take care of Inoue, who was the slowest runner, they could barely keep up. But in the case of running with dozens of pounds of things, they couldn't resist in less than half a minute.
"Wait, wait for us." Wu Feng called out for help.
Wu Feng didn't expect that when he shouted like this, Qiu Yu really stopped. When he approached breathlessly, he realized that several people were not waiting for him, but tossing a sewer well.
"The zombies are all handed over to me, you find a way to open the manhole cover." Qiu Yu double-wielded the machete and faced the chasing zombies.
"But this cement is pasted."
"Then you come to cut down the zombies, and I'll open the manhole cover."
Wu Feng immediately shut up.
The huge tide of zombies is coming, and Qiu Yu is like a reef in a huge wave, resisting wave after wave of impact. Others desperately smashed the cement on the side of the manhole cover.
As the number of zombies increased, many of them attacked several people from both sides or even from the rear after crossing Qiu Yu. And Qiu Yu instantly turned from a boulder into a solid wall that enveloped several people.
In Qiu Yu's calculations, if he came by himself, it would only take thirteen seconds to smash the manhole cover. Several of them went up together, and thirty seconds should be enough for them. And the limit of how long I can fully protect them is probably only so long.
"It's on."
With a loud cry from Ivan, the grinding sound of the metal manhole cover dragging against the ground rang out. At the same time, Wu Feng suddenly exerted his strength, pushing Ivan, whose expression of joy had not yet subsided, towards the corpse group.
Wu Feng, who was paying attention to Qiu Yu's state at all times, could see very clearly that Qiu Yu's movements were getting slower and slower, and his spotless clothes were even soaked in a thick layer of blood, and it seemed that he couldn't last long.
Pushing Ivan to the zombies not only bought him time to jump, but also helped Qiu Yu, not to mention making Qiu Yu grateful, at least he would take care of himself more in the future.
But at the moment when Ivan was about to fall into the group of corpses, he was pulled by Qiu Yu, who didn't know when he turned around, and was thrown directly into the well. And Wu Feng, who was about to jump down, stunned a group of people with his evil moves. Ivan fell, and he was naturally knocked aside.
Before he could get up, a big, foul mouth bit him on the neck.
Wu Feng is not stupid either. The moment the severe pain entered his body, he knew that what happened to him was definitely Qiu Yu's intention. But as for why Qiu Yu even saves NPCs but wants to treat himself like this, he can't figure it out if he kills him with his way of thinking.
"You, you ......" Wu Feng, who was dragged into the corpse group, wanted to curse Qiu Yu, but suddenly found that he didn't even know Qiu Yu's name, so in the end, the words mixed with the screams were, "Ah...... Sima Tianzhi, I won't let you go......"
One less person was protected, and someone attracted some zombies, and when Qiu Yu was the last to enter the sewer, he still had time to put the manhole cover back tightly.
As early as when Wu Feng and the others said what they had done to the aborigines, Qiu Yu classified it as a trouble that needed to be dealt with. But even if it is troublesome, in Qiu Yu's hands, he has to deal with it after the value is squeezed out. Therefore, once you encounter danger, it is Wu Feng who will deal with it first, and then Rex. As for Lao Luo, it seems that no matter his mind, intuition or values, he is much stronger than them, and if conditions permit, Qiu Yu will not take the initiative to pit him.
It looked dangerous just now, but in fact, Qiu Yu could still handle it, and Wu Feng's value could continue to be excavated and excavated, at least, there were still two big boxes of things for him to carry, right?
But his actions have shaken the unity of this collective, and no matter how it is dealt with afterwards, it will not be able to repair the rift that has been created. So the best way to do this is to deal with it as it happens. Anyway, it's a Siyu body, and Qiu Yu doesn't have the slightest pressure to deal with it.
Wu Feng's conduct was not very good, and in the eyes of several aborigines, he was simply a robber. This death, they were relieved.
Rex felt a little sad about the dead fox, but that was also the degree of the game character.
Lao Luo felt that it was a waste of time to even think about Wu Feng, "Who has a flashlight, it's too dark here to see." β
"I have." Qiu Yu took out a flashlight from the backpack he was carrying.
Under the light of the flashlight, Qiu Yu's bloody body was terrifying, and Lao Luo shouted, "Whoever has clothes, quickly change them for our heroes." β
"I have."
Qiu Yu took out a set of clothes sealed in a vacuum bag from the backpack he was carrying, and quickly changed into them.
His eyes swept over the backpack beside Qiu Yu, which was more than half smaller, several times, and Lao Luo always felt that the things there seemed to be prepared for the current situation from the beginning. But when I think about it, I feel that it is unlikely, even if I have the foresight, the most I can think of is to prepare a flashlight to go down the sewer. If even the clothes were in his prediction, it would be an unpredictable prophet.
"Trouble, the map is on Wu Feng's body. I don't know if I can pick it up. Rex said in annoyance.
"Oh, that......" In Lao Luo's frantically beating eyelids, Qiu Yu, who had changed his clothes, leaned over and took out the last thing in the backpack, "I brought it when I got out of the car just now." β
