Chapter 81: The Texas Skinners (1)
The Executive Department began to lay the Broadsword anti-infantry mines, and their initial plan was to install a mine on each grave, but when it became clear that the number of mines was insufficient, they changed to partial graves.
The cemetery in the safe zone has been robbed three times in a row, and they have already figured out the pattern of the ghoul's actions, the purpose of that thing is the corpse in the grave, which means that most of the graves in the cemetery only have ashes, and the ghoul is not interested.
The graves in which the bodies are buried are the only few in the cemetery, and they are all old graves in the early days of the establishment of the security zone, and the Executive Department only needs to place broadsword mines on these graves.
The Broadsword anti-infantry directional mine does not need to be buried, its use is to use it on the ground with a bracket, or hang it on a tree as a trick mine, this thing is not large, twenty centimeters long and eight centimeters high, not much bigger than a dictionary, no one can find it if it is thrown in the grass, it is very convenient to hide.
The surface of the plastic shell of the Broadsword Mine is curved, and when used, the convex surface is facing the direction in which the enemy may appear, and the detonation method is very flexible, and you can choose infrared induction, tripwire pulling, vibration detonation or manual remote control.
The Executive Department carefully put the broadsword mine on the grave, with its back against the tombstone, and then unscrewed the plug of the detonator chamber on the shell, installed the electric detonator, and then slowly lengthened the lead.
Fifty meters away, there is a wooden stick more than one meter high as a ruler, when they place the mine, they use this ruler as the target to adjust the direction, the effective killing surface of the broadsword mine can cover 60 degrees in front, a large area within 50 meters, once the ghoul enters the killing range of the broadsword mine, then the executive department will detonate the mine, and blow the thing into slag.
The colonel, the middle-aged man, and the hummingbird team stood on the path, the Humvee jeep was parked on the grass next to it, and the executive department was busy.
"What do you say? A misshapen monkey or a dwarf? Abraham was a little surprised, "That ghoul looks like this?" ”
Belle nodded, "That's what I saw last night, it suddenly emerged from the grass, it was very pale, fast, and had many hands and feet. ”
Rehro looked at each other, his eyes showing surprise.
"Heavy Artillery, are you sure that ghoul really looks like this?" Abraham reaffirms, "a wizened white monkey, or a man, but ......"
"But he has six hands, and the extra four are on his back, and he has no coat on his body and white skin." The colonel suddenly spoke, "That thing moves very quickly, the strength of its six forelimbs is extremely strong, it crawls on the ground under normal circumstances, it can walk upright in a short time, and its night vision is very strong. ”
Belle was stunned.
She was the only person who had seen the ghoul last night, but even she couldn't see the specifics of the thing, she only remembered that the creature had many hands, but she couldn't see how many hands there were.
Why would the colonel be so clear?
Belle herself couldn't have described it so clearly.
Luo Cheng and Lei He were also stunned.
Ariana slowly frowned.
"Is it true?" Abraham stared at Belle, his expression and tone became eager and serious, "Cannon, can you be sure?" ”
The girl was a little frightened, she hesitated for a while, shook her head and nodded, "I don't see it very clearly...... But it sounds like that. ”
Abraham's expression became solemn, he took a step forward, stood beside the colonel, turned his head and lowered his voice, "Old man, the situation is not good, is that the hell thing?" Why do I feel so much like that? ”
The colonel narrowed his eyes and looked at the executive department, which was laying mines not far away.
"It's possible, according to the description, it fits all the characteristics, but how did they get into the safe zone?"
"Maybe there's a hole in the defense net? Isn't that thing a flying eaves and a quick runner? Maybe it was because the executive department didn't pay attention to the wall and came in? ”
"I've checked the defense and monitoring, and I haven't found any problems." The colonel shook his head.
"Now it's not about defense and surveillance, is it?" Abraham stomped his foot, "If it's really those monsters, then it's dangerous in the safe zone, and something must be done as soon as possible!" Otherwise casualties will soon follow. ”
The colonel looked up and squinted at the sun.
"The sun hasn't set yet, they only move at night, and we still have time."
"But there is one thing I can't figure out, they are obviously extremely fierce monsters, even among hunters, they are also one of the best predators, why would they come to dig graves and steal corpses?" Abel asked, "This is completely inconsistent with our understanding, there has never been a record of those monsters robbing tombs in history, and if they want to kill the living, it is as easy as killing chickens." ”
The colonel was silent for a moment, then shook his head slowly.
"I can't figure it out either."
"Does it still make sense to mine the cemetery now?" The middle-aged man asked, "We should immediately let all the survivors hide, and then lock down the entire academy, clear all the buildings, and kill everything above two legs." ”
"The plan doesn't change for the time being." The Colonel shook his head, "I don't know why they dig graves, but they must have a motive for doing so...... There are questions we have to answer. ”
"Damn, how many years have these monsters been? I thought they were dead. Abraham said indignantly, "I thought the world was at peace, and who knew that these ancient demons were back." ”
Rehro Cheng Belle on the side looked at each other, both at a loss, and the colonel and the middle-aged man chatted to themselves, leaving them all aside, and no one could understand what the two old guys were saying. But judging by their reactions, these two people seemed to know what was causing trouble, and it was some terrifying monster.
"Anna......" Belle tugged at Ariana's sleeve, "Colonel, what the hell are they talking about?" You know what? ”
Ariana put her hands in the pockets of her white coat, her expression was flat, and she glanced at her, not only Belle, but also Lehe and Luo Cheng were surprised and curious, "You want to know?" ”
The three of them nodded in unison.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a marauder, maybe a marauder has run in." Ariana replied leisurely, "The thing Belle described fits very coincidentally with the appearance of a certain type of marauder, a strange man with six hands. ”
"Marauders?"
Ariana nodded, "A very rare type of marauder, sightings are very rare, at least I've never seen one, but it's actually famous, and you may have heard of it?" That thing often appears in stories, usually as a villain, and a whole bunch of nicknames...... For example, the Thousand-Handed Demon. ”
"Thousand-Handed Demon?"
"The official name of that thing is ......," Ariana thought for a moment, "Texas Skinner." ”
